II those who suffer either Constipation, In

would use DR.. Railways Regulating Pills, in
place of the common aloe pills, they wol Id
avoid the unnatural habit of straining and
quickly rid themselves of the disease. This
straining that is forced upon the patient when
at stool, is caused by the irritation of the mu-
cas- membrane of the lower bowels. Bear in
mind, that all of these common pills of aloes,
&c. never dissolve in the stomach or exert
the least influence on the liver, but are carried
to the lower bowels, and there, by their dras-
tic and unnatural influence occasion irritation
and instead Of securing natural movement
OF evacuation, induce an irritating discharge.
which involves cramps, wrenching pains,
straining, tenesmus, frequently sending the
patient to the water closet on futile errands.

THE ATLANTIC MoNTHLY-Lhe thirteenth
volume Of this American periodical begins
with the January number. Steadily increas-
ing in popularity, since its present Publish
ers, NeSsrs. Ticknor & Fields, assumed its
management, it has now circulation greater
than that ever reached by any American
Magazine Of its class, and Gumbcrs among its
contributors such names as Longtellow, Haw-
Lowell, Harriet Beccher Stowe, and others
scarcely less eminent. Its stereotyped vol
nmes are a valuable repository of original
papers on a great variety Of subjects, and its
monthly issues have q genuine freshness and
fitness to the hour. If it is a good test, as it
certainly is, of the standing of magazine
the names of Higgnsop, of Gail Hamilton,
and of the lamented Winthrop are evidence
enough Of what the Atlantic has thus accom-
plished. Nor can better proof be given of
the popular estimation IN which it is held
than the demand for publication in sepa
rate volumes of many Of the serial papers
that first appeared in its pages, such as "The
Autocrat, elsie Vonner," Agassiz' 'Methods
Of study in Natural History" The Minister'S
Wooing," ':Life in the Open Air." "AgneS of
Sorrento" "Out-Door Papers" Thoreau's
Excursions" Whittier's In War Time"
and others.
As among the chiefest merits of the Allan
tic, also, let Us not forget that it has honestly
held and freely declared its own opinions, on
other than literary questions, and that while
it has won for itself in literature position
which no other American Magazine has
reached, it has consistently spoken true words
for Liberty and Progress. In the present
crisis through which the country is passing,
every intelligent American should know what
influences such minds as those of the con-
tributors to the Atlantic are exerting upon
the progress of humanity.

land on which the rebellion stood at first. ~
We control the great river that cuts IL in
two; and that it never can take from Ms
again, unless we surrender it. We occupy

up the Carolina and Georgia ports, with
Pensacola and Mobile. The old nag 4ieA
over the larger part of the stolen fortfesses.
We have strongholds on the James river,
and within a days march Of Richmond,
that can never be wrested from us. 70 this

have done too much already. We cannot
afford to lose all tina; We have gained mere

critical time when the decision is just ready
to be made up. Let every man, then, make
up his mind to stand by. The patriotic
