THE ELECTION.


The pen of controversy has performed its Office,
and is now laid aside for the pen of the recorder.
The great contest closed throughout the country
ON Tuesday night, and the only duty that remains
for US is to appze readers of the issue of the
struggle. It will be several days probably before
the result is fully known; but the imperfect re-
turns which have already reached this city leave
no doubt that the decision of the popular voice has
been expressed in favor Of continuing Mr. LIN
coLSin the Presidential chair for another term Of
-four years from the 4th Of March next -,
The irregular working Of the telegraph wires, OF,
account of the bad weather. has impeded the for
warding of the returns. But, from those already

II is we'll known TO the medical profession

from the food We eat; but if the food is not
properly digested, or if, from any cause Dhdt-
euer, the necessary quantity OF iron is mol
taken into The circulation, or becomes re-
duced, the whole system suffers. The bad
blood will irritaie the heart, will clog up the
lungs, will slupefy the brain, will obstruct
the liver, and will send its disease.producing
elements 10 all parts of the system, and eve
ry one will suffer in whatever organ may oe
predisposed to disease.
The great value of
IRON AS A MEDICINE
is well known and acknowledged by all med
ical men. The difficulty has been to obtai
such prepa ration oft as will enter the cir
cuIation and assimlate at once with the
blood. This point, says DR.. Hayes. Massa-

the Peruvian Syrup, by combination in
way before unknown.
