Trucking to the south.

The woody heads; in their speechifying,
never failed to state that the Democrats
always pandered to the South. We Won
der what they are now doing2 The oppo-
sition have nominated Lincoln, Fremont,
and old Andy Johnson, all Southern
men, If this is not trucking fer. South
ern votes, We will give in. The Western
men state that New England has ruled
long enough; down east Yankees pulled
the bag. all rysbuck, and they are
not going to let them do it again if they
know themselves. When doctors disa.
gree we have nothing to say--we will not
mix in this family quarrelA But laying
all jokes aside, was it not cutting it lit
tie thin, and mean to drop Hannibal

dent of the St. Louis Republican thus
speaks Of the feeling at Lincoln's home
in regard to his prospects. He says:
The nomination of Lincoln has fallen
still-born Even his own admirers begin
to doubt his success unless achieved in an
unauthorized manner They, however,
hope that the Chicago Convention will
lack harmony--that there will be disa-
greements among .he Democrats, and, con-
sequently, they still are in expectancy
Whatever may be said to the contrary, as
between Lincoln and Fremont, the latter
will receive considerable support. The
German Republicans are unit in favor
Of Fremont Their newspaper here is
for him, as are others in different parts oi
the State. Since Gen Oglesby SO severe

support him. 1t is probable, a Fremont

Wrecks Of Humanity.
WHY SHOULD THEY SINK?

The excitement of "the chase" has always
been supposed to have a healthful tendency:
but there is kind of chase which breaks
down the constitution, debilitates the frame
and shortens life. We mean the headlong.
unintermitting hunt after .sthe almighty dol
lar" which is the great business characteris-
tic Of the present day, 1t begets other evils
unnecessary to name) which precpita ate the
fate of thousands. There is, however, a pos,
sibility Of recovery from the proslration pro-
duced by these causes, long after their victim
has ceased to hope for it, If we are rightly
informed, the most astonishing cnres of what
is called general weakness and debility which
have ever been known in this country, have
been effected through the agency of Doct or
Holloway's inestimable remedies. Mere skel-
etons OF men, out of whom the very princi-
pie of vitality seemed to have been drained
have been restored to health and vigor by the
operation Of the Pills; and of the Ointment
i'll case of paralysis, rheumatism, &C., we heal
, an equally favorable account. If men will
break down their energies by exertion-
| If, in their anxiety to "go ahead" they will
override the most precious of Gods blessings
health-it is well they should know how t.
repair the mischief, when they come at las
| to realize the fact of their premature decay
The wrecks of humanity who, without an
particular disease, appear to be sinking fror
mere exhaustion, would find, without douh
in mediate relief from Doctor Holloway

a permanent or temporary investment.
1t is belieFod that no securities offer so
great Inducements tn lenders as the various
descriptions of U. S. Bonds. In all other
forms of Indebtedness, the faith ability of
private parties or stock companies or separate
|communites es only is pledged for payment,
while for the debts of the United States the
whole property of the country. is holden to
securs the payment of both principal and
interest in coin.
These Bonds may be subscribed for in sums
nom $50 up to any magnitude, on the same
terms, and are thus made equally available to
he smallest lender and the largest capitalist.
They can be converted into money at any mo-
lulsnt. and the holder will have the benefit of
the inte est.
! 1t may be useful to state in this connection
that the total Funded Debt of the United
States On which interest is payable in gold,
on the Sd day of March, 1864. was S76S, ,96a.
coo. The interest on this debt fer the com
| ing fiscal year will he S4F ,e37, l26, while the
customs revenue in gold for the current fiscal
year, ending June 30th, 1864, has been So far
at the rate of over S10o,00o,oeQ per annum
1t will be seen that eysnthe present gold
revenues of the Government largely ia excess
# the wants of the Treasury fer the payment
of gold interest, while the recent increase of
he tariff will doubtless raise the annual re-
fceipts from customs on the same amount OF
