Booth the Actor.

The health of this great actor is rapidly
falling. He is thin and haggard, and worn.
and has very bad cough, that reminds one
of the first earth upon his cofiln-lid from
the grave-digger's shovel. The great crime
Of his young tragedian's brother affected
him very deeply, and rendered him such a
prey to melancholy that his friends feared
for his sanity for some months. His con-
slant brooding over the Presidents nssas-
sination, and the visible effect of wearing
memory wrought upon his health. induced
his intimates to advise areturn to the stage.
The counsel he at first rejected obstinately,
but was at last prevailed upon to accept it
as a means of dissipation and relief to the
dark monotony Of his ever-disturbing
thoughts.

WHITE MANS DAY.'-Congress is terri
bly, troubled with what year or so ago
was emphatically termed "nigger on the
brain" Hardly anything is heard in the
National Legislature but speeches and mo-
tions and propositions regarding the negro.
This everlasting talk upon the one topic
induced an Illinois representative a few
days ago TO make the following motion =
"Resolved, That the Committee on the
Rules be instructed TO inquire into the ex-
pediency of reporting new rule for the
government of the House. TO the effect that
one day In each week shall be exclusively
set apart for the public business of the
country during this Congress, to be known
as the white mans day."
This Is fitting commentary upon the
farrago ofnonsense with which Congress Is
inflicted by impractlcable and vain-glori-
GUS legislators.

to patronize your home paper. You cannot
excuse yourself on account of poverty.
None are so poor as the ignorant, except it
be the depraved; and Ignorance and crime
often go hand in hand. Take your home
paper, even If 1t Is not so large as some 9TH
ers; 1t will keep you advised of what is 60
ing on in your own neighborhood instead
of thousand miles away. If you are too
poor to take daily, take weekly. 1t will
cost but a tri1e, and you can certainly not
afford to let your family grow up in ignor-
ance for the paltry sum of few dollars
that 1t would cost to get u good newspaper.

Off through the bowles and the secretions
of the skin and kidneys, those poisonous
humors that clog the stomach. bowels, and
skin, and become accumulated IN the blood.
There has been as great progress In sci
ence, and especially In that of medicine,
within the past few years, as there has In
the arts. To such perfection have they
brought this science, that the medicinal
properties are condensed and concentrated
into the resins or salts of the plant which
they extract from it, and leave the inert or
woody matter. The old mode of extracting
these medicinal propertics-by boiling for
n long time In wateT--is found, In most
eases. to render the medicinal qualities
wholly inert, or even decomposlng them.
DIR. Morris VEGETABLE LIVER Pills are
composed of chemical vegetable extracts,
mostly from plants growing in our own
country; some of these plants have direct
action on the liver Others upon the skin,
others on the kidneys and others upon the
bowels aud lungs, IL is by peculiar
chemical combination of all these extracts
that these Pulls are made, possessing the
most extraordinary efficacy for curing the
above-named diseases.
