These organs being weak, the water is not expel-

TREATMENT.

Helmbold's highly concentrated Ex-
tract of Buchu is decidedly one of the
best edes for diseases of the bladder kidneys,
gravel, dropsical sweilings, rheumatism, and gou-
ty affections. Under this head we have arrang-
ed Dysuria, or difficulty and lain in passing wat

charges of water - Stranguary, or stopping of
water; H@maturia. or bloody urine; Gout and
Rhematism of the kidneys, without any change
in quantity, but increase of color dark water
1t was always highly recommended by the late
DR. Physiek in these affections.
This medicine increases the power
of digestion, and exctes the ahsorber : into heal

IL L. 1lELMBOLD, druggist.
Dear SIR II have been a suffer
er, for upwards OF twenty years, with
gravel, bladder, and kidney affections,
| during which ,ime have used various med icinal
preparations and been under the treatment of
the most eminent physicians, experiencing but
little relief
Having seen your preparations ex-
tensively advertised, consulted with my family
physician in regard to using your EXtEact Buchu
L did this because : used ali kinds
OF advertised remedies, and had found
them worthless and some quite injurious; in fact
l despaired of even getting well. and determin-
ed to use no remedies unless L knew of the in gre
dients 1t was this that prompted me to use your
remedy As you advertised that it was compos-
ed of BUoHU, cUBEBs. and JUMPER BERRIES, it
CURED to me and my physician as an excellent
com bination. and. with his advice. after exam
ination of the article, and consulting again with
the druggist. L concluded to try it. commen-
ced its use about eight m onths ago, at which time
L was confined to my room. From the first bot
tie was astonished and gratiied at the benefi-
clal effect, and arter using it three weeks, was a.
BILE to walk out. felt much like writing you
full statement of my case at the time but thought
my Improvement might only be temporary and
therefore concluded to defer and see if it would
effect a perfect cure, knowing then it would be of
greater value to you snd more satisfactory to me
| am now able to report that cure
is effected after using the remedy for
five months.
have not used any now for three
months, and feel as well in all respects
as l ever did
Your Buchu being devoid of any UNPLEASANT
taste and odor, nice tonic and invigor TOR of the

They claim to degrade, debase and prescribe as because of our patriotism.
 Speaking here to-day in the name of the loys Ealists of the South, we affirm Congress, in or der to avoid disc,rd aud conflict, has actually abstained from doing much which 1t ought to have done and possesses the power to do. We affirm that the loyalists of the South look to Congress with affectionate gratitude and confidence as the only means to save us from persecution. exile and death itself; and we also declare that there can be no security for
 us our children. There can be no safety for the country against the fell spirit of Slavery now organized in the form of serfdom, unless the Government, by nation and appropriate legisletion. enforced by national authority, shall confer on every citizen in the States we represent the American birthrigbt of impar- tial suffrage and equality before the law This is the one al-suf6cient remedy This is our great need and pressing necessity. This is |the only policy which will destroy sectional ism by bringing into effective power prepon derating force on the side of loyalty. It will lsad to an enduring pacifcation. because bas- ed on the eternal principles of justice. It is policy which will finally regenerate the South itself, because it will introduce and establish there'a divine principle of moral politics
 which, under Ged's blessing. will, in elevating humanity, absorb and purify the uRchrlslian
 hate and selfish passions of men. It will bless those who give as we'll as :hose who receive It will bethe crowning act of glory to our free Republic, and when done will be received as was the act of Emancipation, with joy and praise throughout the world as the final reali- zation of the promises of the Declaration of American Independence.

President Johnson's Tour.

t a
 In common with every sensible man in the country we wish this publi c exhibition of our chief magistrate might be stopped, forthwith.
 Although the course MT Johnson pnrsues is driving away all the friends he once had in the Union party; although every speech be has made on his Western trip has gaincd us many votes; we cannot but remember that he is President of the United States and would gladly forego our party advantages for the sake of our national reputation. How so shrewd a politician as Secretary Seward can permit the head of the new party to bring it into such early disrepute, is great mystery. unless, as has been suggested, he wishes an obstacle to his own nomination m 1868, to remove itself. If such be his design, now that the business is finished and President JohCsous suicide ac compIsbed, can he not be withdrawn from public sight as MT Blair withdrew him after that lamentable exhibition at his inaugura- tion.-That be should be allowed to go on in- acting further uuseemly wounds on his reputa- tion, and di.Eracing beyond measure his high office. shows that, with their loud professions, the persons surrounding him are no real friends.
