BONE FELoN-As we often see friends
suffering from these very troublesome things,
we publish the following cure for them,
which We have heard highly recommended.
As soon as the parts begin to swell, get the
tincture of lobelia and wrap the part affected
with cloth thoroughly saturated with the
tinctuFe, and the felon is dead. An old
physician says he has known it to cure in
scores Of cases, and it never fails, if applied
In season. -
Another remedy is vouched for by the
Buffalo Advocate, as certain cure from
its own knowledge. 1t is as follows: Take

How TO MARRY A BELLE.-In Canada
rich old widower is said to have practised
an ingenious scheme to gain the hand of the
belle of the village. He hired an old gipsy
to tell the young lady's fortune, and instruct
ed her to state that wealthy old widower
(giving description of his personal appear
anoe and dress) would pay her visit and
offer himself, and that she would accept,
and be left wealthy young widow before
the close of the year. Her next husband
would be young man she liked at present.
The gypsy did her duty, the old man pre-
sented himself, and the marriage followed.
He is likely to live many years, and the vii
lage belle may be q grandmother before she
becomes widow.

War Debt.

The determination of the President to
=, hold as ,disloyal the people of any State
that shall recognize the debt contracted for
the prosecution of the war, has inspired
much feeling The evidence Of those debts
are not held BY the parties most active in
the prosecution of the war, but have passed
. to the hands of those having funds for in.
svestment, and of those, the largest class,
perhaps, are the widows and orphans of the
State. In the sediment of estates, admins
traitors and guardians were allowed to make
such investments; they naturally sought
them from the feeling they we're safe Of
these, also, another large class are the mer-
camille men and others who owe debts
abroad, and who we're forced, from the ex
isteRee Of the war, to hold their funds in
such form as to meet them when the war
should be- over. Both classes are entirely
mesitorious. Distributes of estates, gen
orally nnftted to provide for themselves,
have nothing else to depend on, and debt
ors, with this last stay stricken from thom,
must fall before their foreign creditors, nor
then will be able to discharge their obliga-
tions, but must grovel under them for the
balance of their lives.
It is to be regretted, also, we think, for
the reason that the paramount want of our
psople---now depends upon the start of
business, and this capital is necessary to a
start. And so important ia it, that it were
almost enough to justify the State in vol.
untary appropriation of so much to the uses
of her citizens We could better pay that
sum at some future time than be without it
now.
We are pleased to believe that in this
State the evi. will be less felt than in many
others. We have the recollection of but
two amounts of any consequence issued dur
ing the+war-the one was of S400, 900 in
1861, and ancaher of about 81, zoo, 600 in
1852 and 1868. These sums are large, but
less than we're those issued by other States,
and it may be possible for the State to COM
pensste the loss by issuing bonds for the
payment of the current expenses of the
State Government without taxation. But
this will alleviate our wants, but will not
avert the evil. The capital will be lost,
and individuals viii necessarily suffer; the
State will find her credit impaired, and un
der every aspect, we Would depreeats pre-.
sistence in the policy. 4..ee- q.

TRYING CoNFEDERATEs FOR TREASON
Tie Louisville Journal says as to the
trying of Lee and his oonfederates for trea
SON, conyictibg and executing them, the
case is very simple and very plain, The
Government can't do it. 1t has been
essopped from it by its own solemn acts.----
It pledged its honor, its faith, everything il
has to pledge, that it would do nothing Of
this kind that itwould not "disturb" the
surrenderipg parties 80 long as they should
keep their paroles and observe the laws
where they might reside. That was the
bargain; It was clearly expressed, clearly
understood. No cloud of words can. clog
it, no logical subtleties eyade it, and 10
political legerdemain can ever deceive any
honest mind as to the. nature of the con.
tract or the duties incumbent upon the
contractors. Oar Government, we feel
sure, will religiously observe its faith, its
loyalty, and preserve its untarnished honor,
its good name and fair fame in the premi-
ses. All the rivers of earth could not wash
ont the stains it would befoul itself with by
a contrary course. How any decent sane
man can. wish the Government thus to
make itself everlastingly exeorable, volun-
tarily to place the brand of infamy upon its
own forehead, is to US utterly incomprehen-
sibie. It is moral or rather immoral phe-
nomenon which We can explain only by re-
.fsrring it to the irrational.
