These Mighty Healers, World-Kn
and World-Tried.
ARE A BOON TO THE SICK.

The want Of sterling medicinal to meet the ills
and necessities Of the suffering portion Of humanity
and entirely free from mineral and other delete
rious particles, severely felt till this a-power iul
medicine ushercd into the world Holloway's
Invaluable Pills have become the HOUSEHOLD
REMEDY Of all nations. Their attribute is to PRE-
VENT as we'll CURE; they attack the radix or
root Of the complaint, and thus, by removing the
hidden Of disease, reinvigorate and restore
the dropping energies ofthe system, assisting nature
in her task Of vital and functionAry reformation.

THE ROUTE TO RICHMoND.-The route
over which Grant is now travelling is not,
as has been alleged, the same as that cho,
sen by Mcclellan in 1S62-cspccially
does it not lead him through the swamps
of fChickahoniny. Hanovcrtown is about
twelve miles north of the White Pouse,
on the Pamunkey, and is connected with
Richmond, which is only sixteen miles
distant, by good roads over hard ground
No swamps intervene. The great swamp
through which Mcclellan waded, and in
which he finally foundercd, is fully ten
miles south of General Grants present
line of advance on Richmond. SO that,
whatever other mishap might befall the
Army ofthe Potomac, now once again
so near tho goal of all its efforts, it runs
no risk of being stuck in the mud-Phts.

mode of preparation; but, instead of pro-
curing other ''help' on the instant. he al
lows himself to be persuaded, if the help
is sick, she viii get well in day or two,
or in week at furthest, and that is hard
y worth while to get another for so short
a time. lfthe "help" has taken French
leave" his mind fixes on the fact that it
is busy time, and neither he nor sim
gle hand can be spared, or that, in the
course of a week, some one will have to
go IN town for some other purpose, and
both these matters can be attended to at
the same time Meanwhile the wife is
expected notonly TO attend to her ordina-
ry duties as usual, but somehow or other
to spare the time to do all that the cook or
washerwoman was accustomed to, that is,
to do the full work of two persons, each
one of whom had already quite as much
labor TO perform as she could possibly
attend to. The wife attempts it.-By
Herculean efforts all goes on WE'LL
The farmer perceives no jar, no hitch in
the working of the machinery, and, be-
cause no complaint is uttered, thinks that
everything is going on without an effort
Meanwhile time passes, and (infnite shame
ON some of them) they begin to calculate
how much has been saved from servants
wages, and how much less food has been
eaten, and because still no complaint is
made, the resolution quietly forms in the
mind to do nothing until she does COM
plain; but, before that takes place, she
falls a victim to her over-exertions, in
having laid the foundation for weeks and
months of illness, if not of a premature
decline and death. Sincerely it is believ-
ed that these statements ought to be writ
ten in large letters above the mantels of
half the farmers of the country, aud if
over the other half also, it would labor
lost in favor of manya heroic and uncom-
planning but outraged farmers wife and

LIBERALITY OF A RoMIsH CARDI-
NAL.-We understand that one of the
Cardinals at Rome, sympathizing
deeply with the sufferings of our sold
iers in their struggles for our country
has authorized the Right Rev. Bish-
op Timon of this city to place FIVE
hundred dollars in the hands of the
Sanitary Commission, to be applied
to their relief. This mdnifcence,
coming as it does from the private
resources of the Cardinal, is both no.
bic and timely.-B,0alo Express.

and for the existing Constitution, in its spirit letter
and purpose.
Upon the coming events of the year. rest the hopes
of tic People and Government. We are in the midst
Of bloody and pr0tracted civil war. Its duration
and close depend upon wiser, truer and more patr-
otc policy than we have during the present Ad
minstration. We owe it to the memory Of our faith
ers and to the hopes of children to the future of
country and to the best interests of mankind to
change policy which is drifting farther and far
ther from the landmarks of our patriotic sires.
THE STATESMAN will do all it can for those pur-
poses, and hence, the publishers invite support and
encouragement from all those who while wishing for
agood NEWSPAPER, also wish TO have sound Con-
stitutional journal.

sensation character, and we seek TO make THE
STATEsMAN Trustworthy in every particular.
