that the idea of giving the negro the right to

IMPORTANT TO THE SIcK.-We invite the specia
attention OF our readers to DR.. Easterly's adyers
tisements, which be seen in our advertising
columns this evening. DR.. Easterly's family med
Icines are deservsdiy popular, have a rapid sale,
give general satisfaction, and are kept in all the
principal drug stores throughout the western and
~ thern states. cit will be that DR.. EasterIy
does not recommend one ms dicine to cure all dis
eases but prepares a remedy for each particular
disease, which can be relied upon to cure. If
families would supply themselves with variety
of his medicines, many DOCTORS bill might be
saved, also much sickness and suffering. DR..
Easterly's medicines have been twenty years es.
tablished in St. LOUIS, and wherever known are
regarded the best in use. We say TO the sick
and afflicted Il them. For sale by all druggists.

THE DOUGLAS TREE.-Some days ago. prob
ably with a view to an invidious conn srison,
the Union trumped up story that the Doug
las tree was slippery elm, while the Lin.
coin tree was a white elm. There is no truth
in the statement. and we can see no other OBJ
ject in making it except the one named
above.
Both the trees were raised by Mr.. Shaugh-
Messy, good Douglas democrat, and good
judge of trees, and be says that neither of
them are slippery elm, and that both are of
the same species.
The slippery elm makes a very handsome
tree, but does not grow quiteas large as the
white or the bitter elm.

HIGH WArER.-Traditions now almost for
gotten, tell us that in the year 1928, a
great food swept down the Father of Waters,
such as has never been witnessed since. In
the year 1859. the water rose to a heighth of
twenty and = half feet above low water
mark, and in 1862. the river again swelled to
mammoth proportions. It is now, accord
ing to the measurement of j. M, Datzeli, in
Davenport. only two inches lower than the
food of Msy I'd, 1862, and nine inches of the
a God of 1859. The latest news from above, by
steam bosts, as reported at the coal Office, is
tina. Capt. Parker, of the steamer Davenport,
just arrived from ST. Paul, reports the river
falling, all the way down. 1t will probably
be on o stand here by Tomorrow
The best authority here, on the subject of
high water, is Mr.. Paul W. Gallup, who has
post at the corner of his lumber yard where
hs has kept the measurement of the wa.er
for soma years. he says the river is still
rising. but very slowly. and that it has risen
from three to four inches during the last "a
hours.
