Of our readers to the advertisement of Goes

our most respectable Eastern Drug Houses,

iectual and speedy remedy for the cure Of

Throat. that has ever been offered to the
public. Unlike most other remedies, it does
not dry up Cough, but loosenes it, and by
causing the patient TO expectorate freely, COM
pletely clears il away. For children who are
troubled with Group, it is invaluable, COM
pletely destroying this fearful destroyer, as
soon as taken. We consider it the duty OF
every mother to provide herself with bottle,
if she values the heelth of her children, and
every family to make it a necessity in their
household. It can be had Of any Druggist.

A MAMMOTH ENTERPRIsE.-By our ad-
vertising columns it will be seen that the
two well known establishments, Thayer &
Noyes' Circus and Van Amburg & Co.'s
Menagerie have effected an arrangement by
which they will both travel together the
present season, and exhibit in one mammoth
tent for single price of admission, forming
combination of attractions which cannot
Tall to draw out immense .hrongs Of visitors
wherever they may go. The Menagerie is
said to include an unusually fine collection
OF living beasts and birds from all parts of
the world, many of which have been i'm
ported within the last year, while all are in
the best condition. Among other rare ZOO
logical features this collection can boast of
the largest lion in the country, a white Polar
bear fresh from the Arctic ocean, a superb
ostrich South American hippopotamus, and
monster elephant :. Hannibal" the largest
quadruped on exhibition either in Europe or
America. The Circus performances which
are given at each exhibition, without extra
| charge, will consist of every variety of dash
ing horsemanship and extraordinary athletic
feats, introducing one of the largest and
most talented troupes ever brought together
in this country. A stud Of horses, ponies
and mules unrivaled for extent, beauty and
thorough training, completes the list of at
fractions included in this truly colossal COM
| bination, which is to exhibit here on the
l1th day of July. Those who enjoy a
hearty laugh will have their cases attended
to by DIR. j. L. Thayer, the inimitable hu-
morist, who will enliven the scenes of the
circle by his quaint drolleries, and also in
troduce his wonderful comic mules Mons.

Death Of Tom Hyer.

1om Hyer, the well-known pugulist
and athlete of former years, died at his
residence in this city yesterday Sunday
morning. For several years past he had
been complaining, but most of the time
had not been confined to his house.
Hyer's first fight in the prize ring was
with Country McCluskey, up the North
river. He was whipped afterward
fought him again and came off victorious
At this time Yankee Sullivan was in his
fame, and nobody supposed he could be
whipped Sullivan wanted to fight Hyer,
but the latter did not care to. Finally
however, they happened to meet at Sher-
woods bar-room, near Park Place, on
Broadway, and some taunts were thrown
out, which resulted in quarrel between
the two men, and in Hyer giving Sullivan
thrashing. This led to formal chal-
lenge, and finally the great event took
place on Delaware Bay, where Hyer
whipped Sullivan easily in sixteen rounds.
This fight created an intense excitement
IN pugilistic circles, and many thousands
OF dollars were lost and won upon the
eevnt
OF course it made Hyera hero, but altho'
he was in splendid health, from that time
forth he kept away from the prize-ring
In his day he was regarded as one of the
handsomest men that walked Broadway,

Morality of this Administration

The Divine Nazarine in giving instr uc-
tions on the Mount of Olives, to his hear
ers, told them among other beautitudes,
that d" Blessed were the peacemakers for
they shall be called the children of God. :"
Has this doctrine become obsolete, or is it
as immutable as its author? None will
deny the authenticity of the doctrine The
Dynasty at Washington cannot be called
the children Of God, they are not peace
makers-they are blood-thirsty in the ex-
treme, they have mutilated and butchered
over one million of the flower of the
American people without one single effort
10 terminate the slaughter. And now it
is the same old song, more men, more
money, and more taxes. The profigate
destruction of human life has DESTROYED
the whole system of American labor, and
left very few able-bodied men to till the
soil. The wasteful extravaganza of the
present administration is appalling. From
the days of George Washington's inaugu-
ration to the day of the Inauguration Of
the present incumbent, there was spent
something over fourteen thousand million
OF dollars, and now the appropriations for
this dynasty is over forty thousand mil
lions, according to the last census. before
there was any destruction of property. II
would take the whole of the northern pro-
perty, real, personal and mixed to Haui
date this debt. We may be told the
country is prosperous, money is plenty, so
1t is, but it is the hectic glow IF con-
sumptIye patient, the sure harbinger of
death. Surely men will soon open their
eyes to the inevitable state of things that
now exists in this once free and happy
land No man but a maniac could think
that this country conld stand this war
much longer.
There are no pcacemakers in this Adj
ministration. Truly, they shall not be
called the children of God. Their trca.
son, theirinsanity andiwickcdness is more
to be pitied than blamed, they are SPELL
bound and controlled by the demon of
Abolitionism, and arc not free agents any
more. Providence has abandoned them
to their own wickedness and folly, for
"whom the gods wish to destroy they first
make mad" The Southern States have
sought for recognition in vain from all
nations of Europe, but-their nationality
is recognized by Lincoln's leader in the
House of Representatives, who declares
that the Union of our fathers is dead and

War News.

The news from the army of the Poto-
mac is not very encouraging. Petersburg
is not yet taken, and we don't think IL
will be taken. 1t is said by the New
York Tribune that General Grant appre-
ciating the great labors of his white and
black troops fighting by day, and en-
trenching by night, has added to their
comfort a whisky ration. Now we don't
wish to be understood as having any per-
sonal objection to a whisky ration if we
were in the army, but we think it looks
like infusing false spirit into men to
make them fight, when in sober seri-
BUSINESS they would not attempt it
We see men in bar-rooms, when they
are intoxicated are very often more be-
ligerant than they would be if they were
confined to hard tack and water rations.
On the whole Grant deserves great deal
of credit for discovering that men will
fight better drunk than sober, but we
| think that this great discovery must be
| attributable to the towering genius of the
President. He made visit to GraDts S
army last week and of course something
| sublime would be the consequence He
| did not even 90 alone but took his son
along, and it is fair to suppose that the
son will be a perfect reflex of the Ole
gentleman in genius and talent, you cam
expect him to " swap horses in crossing g
stream.
Our impression is that Grant is loosing
his men and making no headway in til,
capture Of Petersburg or Richmond III,
has now divided his forces and sent on,
part of them to destroy the railroads soutl
of Richmond and has the other part O
his army facing the enemy. This MAJ
be perilous maneuvre, but let US hop
for the best,
Sherman's army is not in any NOR
promising condition than Grants. He i
kept at bay by Johnston and is in yer,
unenviable position. On the whole tin
situation of our armies north and soutl
looks rather gloomy.
