9th. This work has been fully tested for over
ave years by many OF tho hrst chemists and
physicians Of this aud the old country.

eSg Line advocates OF unIVerSaL
negro suffrage in the Southern States,
held a meeting at the Unitarian
Church in Medford, Sunday after
noon last, which developed the pur-
poses of those who are organizing
an opposition TO President johnson
more distinctly than similar convo-
cations have done before. J. @. A.
Griffin, Esq, thought Lee surren-
dered too quickly and that our sol
diprs had come home too soon. Thus
it appears he would have prolonged
the war, augmented the sacrifice of
lite and treasure-continued the in
terruption of the peaceful relations
of life-increased the burdens of
taxation and submitted the whole
country to the patold miseries of re-
lentless strife for the purpose Of
making the suddenly emancipated
slaves voters by the force of arms !!
He denied that slavery was abol-
ished and thought it never would be
under the Presidents doctrine that
the rebel States had not been out of
the Union. lie had read all the
Presidents speeches he could find.
and said the President held slavery
to be under State control. He de-
nounced the Presidents appoint
ments, and declared that he was not
to be lulled by the syren song that
the President can be trusted ON this
subject, for he found no sentiment in
all Mr.. johnson had uttered higher
than deploring the rebellion because
it endangered slavery. The Rev
Mr.. Hooper was too hot to speak
now--his blood had been boiling for
some time-and desired an adjonrn-
rnent for further discussion. Much
similar talk was indulged in when it
was voted to adjourn to next We'd
nesday evening. The calm, intelli-
gent, and patriotic citizen will at
once detect the libels upon the Presi-
dent, his acts, words, purposes. He
told the South Carolina delegation
that they must put a provision into
their State Constitution prohibiting
slavery, and approve the proposed
amendment to the United States
Constitution; in short he has done
more to break down the institution
and save the Union than all the
Grifins and blood boiling Hoopers
in New England.
It is for the country to decide
whose sacrifices and works in the
past entitle them to most confidence,
such men as Andrew Johnson and
Gen. Grant, or J. @ A. Griffin and
the Rev. Mr.. Hooper; whether the
country is safer under the pilotage
of the legally constituted authorities
of the Government, or the empires
who run where wiser men fear to
walk. We believe the President is
anxious to secure to the negroes all
the rights that may be consistent
with the ends Of justice, their well
briug and the good Of the country
but desires to accomplish this end in
a manner consistent with his Consti-
lutional obligations, and not through
the process of Lynch law. Boston

It may be that the French think it
prudent to concentrate at Monterey,
and the unhealtbiness of Matamoras
may arise from the presence of so

~ Rachel was very stingy. as

Ey Rachel was very stingy, as
every body knows. She oace gave
a great dinner to the creme de la no.
bic societe. In the morning she rode
out with the we'll known French
critic and gourmand, and requested
him to help her t. select an excel
lent dessert. They rode to Chevet's
the greatest fruit dealer in Paris,
and selected the dessert. She was
just going to leave the place when
Chevet asked her if she did not
want pineapple as al ornament
for the table.
"How much is it ~
Seventy francs. Pineapples
are very dear in Europe"
THAT is too much for me-" she
said. "But would you Lot rent it
to mc?"
Cievet laughed and consented.
At the dinner the critic sat next
to the Duke Of San T .odorn, and at
the dessert he said to the latter:
"Do you see that delicious pine.
apple"
"Parbleu |" said the Duke, II
came near forgetting it,"
The Duke rose, took Large and
sharp knife and made deep cut in
to the fruit, Rachel, who saw it,
was struck by this deed as by
dagger in tragedy. A cry Of
grief came from her breast.
"What is the matter 7" asked
Ponsafd. "'Has Madame Rachel a
pineapple in her breast 2"
She could not be consoled during
the whole evening.
