y NEW AND GRAND EPOCH IN MEDICINE
Dr. MaSg:cl i, the founder of a new mc,li-
calsystcn The quantitar:4lls, whose vast
internal doses enfeeblc the stomach and
paralyzc the bowels, must give precedence
to the man who restores health and anne
tlte. wi.h from one to two of his extraordi-
nary Pills, and cures the most vrulent
sores with a box or so of his wonderfuland
all-heaing Salve. These two great speci-
iics of the Doctor are fast supcrscd;nr all
the stcreotypcd nostrums OF the day. EN-
traord!aary cures by Maggicl's Pills and
Salvc have opened the ewes of the puhlicto
the lnciti:!cnCr of the (so-call"d) remedies
OF others. and upon whicl, people have so
long h!inl,ly depended Maggiel's Pills are
not of the class that are swallowed by the
dozen, and of whicls every box full taken
creates an absolute necessity for another
One OF two of Maggiel'S Pills suificcs to
place the bowels in perfect order tone the
stomach, create All appetite and xcndcr the
spirits light and buoyant. There is no
SripinG and no reaction III the form of con
stlpatlon. If the liver is affected its tunc-
tenn is feeble, it is invigorated This last
quality makes the medicines very desirable
for the wants of ofuelicate females. Ulccrous
and cruptivc diseases are literally extin-
Suished by the Gisinfectant power of Mag
gels Salve. In fact, it is here announced
that 1lag9iefs Bilious, Dyspeptic and Dina-

The London Times, in its issue of April 10, 1866
did us the honor to read lesson on the question Of
the adjustment of the electoral suffrage, in the follow
ing words: Nobody on either side OF the House oil
Commons has dropped word about the enranchlSe
ment of our 1000, 900 agricultural laborers, rep
rcsenting as they do, much larger popula'
ton than the negroes Of the United States NOBODY
praises them; nobody proposes to give them votes;
nobody thinks it necessary to give reasons why they
should not have votes" II is clear the foregoing
statements were especially intended FOR our use ana
service hut there is another and subsequentyiew OF the
oues,ion limited BIZ The Times Mr.. Podsnaps wave
Of the hand il met by the assembling of the people in
HYDE Park. Ugly questions are asked, and shocking
replies made. Whose is the Park cry the reiormers'
The Crowns answer the Ministers. We've paid Tor
i, for the past two centuries! is the rejolnder The
scene fittingly concludes with the menacng words of
John Bright to the people: " If public meeting in
nublic park is denied you. and if millions OF
intelligent and honest men are denied the fran
ebise. on what foundation does our liberty rest
or is there in the country any liberty but the
federation of the ruling elias !" Considering, at
the same time, that martial law exists, and
We are informed is destined to be continued in Ireland.
Truly things do not appear to be quite SO serene as
they might be in the land of noble Britons. Is The
Times aware that its declarations the severest ex
positions Of the nadequacy ofthe British Governmental
system that could possibly be invented or published
Can it be that such melancholy statements are truth

of almost undisturbed sristocra,ic rule! Is 1t rue'

Judging from the tenor Of our news, all the quar-
reling at the Philadelphia Convention will be indoors
The delegates already at hand are confused about the
programme but cling nervously to the terms of the
Washington call, which excludes nobody who pro-
fesses desire to come in and pay his share of the
expenses. We hear that loyal resolution will be
offered by Gen. Steedman, confomaby to his recent
reports on the Freedmen's Bureau, and that
original Secessionists and convicted disloyaSts
will be excluded, to the reluctant salts
faction of those who have pardons in their pockets.
For the proposed attempt to keep MesSrS Wood and
Vaandigham out Of the Convention a stout resist
ance is already organized, with confidence of an easy
victory. Should the Copperhead leaders not be adj
mtted the great body of the Southern party threaten
to break ranks and 60 home. Over all these ele-
mens Of diScord the President we are told, is dill
gently pouring out the oil of pacifeation The Con-
vention will be managed through the agents from
Washington after the pattern of the States in recon-
sructon. 1t is safe to predict that there will be an
energetic effort on the part Of the President to gal
vanze it into plausible behavior; and if anything is
likely TO effect q good understanding among the
bread-andbutter men, it is the promise held out that
he will make "a clean sweep" We hope so. Else
where care has been taken to present in brief the
antecedents of the great representative majority OF
the Convention. 1t will be seen that e1.Rebels and
Copperheals generally far in excess of the Presi-
dents body-guard. We very much fear that the
Egyptians serpent will devour that oil MOSES, or
else TIE reptiles must be one and the same.

Hacket to charge our next Grand Jury to investigate
searchingly the recent proceedings of our Common
Council whereby the City is (intended to be) COM
PEELED to pay most exorbant price for lighting our

but casually in Office, and desires, we presume to
receive the Peoples approving stamp at the ensuing

doing his best to save them from this gigantic
robbery Common rumor indicates $500, 900 as
the price paid the City Fathers for betrayng their
