Editors UniOn:-In reply to many
letters and inquiries from people in this
section of the country, the undersigned
take great pleasure in saying through the
columns Of your paper, that our rcnown-
ed preparation known as GOES DYS-
PERSIA CURE, is o certain cure for
Dyspepsia, in its worst stages. Many
cures of long standing, whiting our own
acquaintance, have been completely, and
we believe permanently cured. 1t will
stop eating almost instanta- distress after
nGously, and enables the dyspeptic who
has lived for years upon Graham bread
and the p%lainest diet, to eat as heartily
as he pleases, and anything he chooses,
without danger of distress, or souring, or
rising on the stomach. 1t is an infalli-
bic corrcctor of indigestion and constipa-
ton, creates a healthy appetite, stops
sick headache, heart burn, sickness OF
the stomach, pains, cramps, or collie in
either stomach or bowels, and sweetens
offensive breath, as soon as you take it,
and by enabling the patient to take plen.
ty of hearty food, which is the parent Of
health" produces vigor, strength and en-
ergy. In every trial We have known, it
has speedily eradicatcd Dyspepsia with
all its attendant sufferings, weaknesses,
debility, and loss of power, giving instead
a proper activity and tone to the stom-
ache and organs Of digestion, and as we
confidently believe, and the published
certificates in our circulars, almanacs, and
in many of the leading journals, from
convaloscent patients will confirm, com.
pletcly, permanently, and almost miracu.
lousy "cure the worst cases of Dyspep
sia in existence We warrant it in ev-
cry instance. 1t can be obtained at all
the Drug Stores in the United States and
Canadas, at Sl,OO per bottle, or six bot
ties for $500.

Negro Suffrage.

Some of the abolition journals copy ap,
provingly the following
The New York Commercial Adcertise,
says the question of admitting the negro
to the right Of suffrage is demanding O
large share Of attention. 1t is a question
that must be met and decided upon
There is no principle that can be urged
to deprive the black man of a right or a
privilege which is accorded to the white.
Ths negro has been deemed worthy Of
shedding his blood to restore civil order.
1t would be n foul wrong to him to with.
hold the ballot, and to continue him to
the Pariah state from which he has
emerged"
Negro equality is undoubtedly the
question now to be decided. It's claim.
ed by the abolition leaders, Garrison &
Co., that the question is decided, but, it
would seem that President johnson is
somewhat in the way, and if the people
of the Southern States are allowed Ito
manage their own affaiis in their W
way"-ovcn ;he SO called "uniou people,"
the status ofthe negro will not bechanged
q particle.
We think this persistent effort to make
a white citizen of tho negro is a f%ruitless
one. Tho Almighty is before and ahead
of the abolitionists. His decree is para,
mount. They may ps well cease this eff.
fort to bring about an impossibility No
use, gentlemen. You cannot make black,
white; nor, by law or proclamation, con
vert wool into hair. Miscegnation is tho
only possible mode. So, gentlemen, if
you really love tho negro, mix their blood
with yours. No other way. To this com.
plexion you must come. Stark %. Dem,
