Essence of Jamaica Ginger |!

Hr This valuable preparation, containing in
a highly concentrated form all the properties Of
the Jamaica Ginger, has become Of the most
popular domestic remedies for all diseases Of the
stomach and digestive organs.
AS tonic, it will be found invaluable TO all
persons recovering from debility, whether pro-
duced by fever or otherwise, for whilst it imparts
to the system all the glow and vigor that can be
produced by wine or brandy, it is entirely free
from the reactonary efforts that follow the use
of spirits Of any kind.
1t is also an excellent remedy for females who
suffer from difficult menstruation, giving almost
immediate relief to the spasms that SO frequent
ly accompany that period.
1t gives immediate relief to Nausea, caused by
riding in a railroad car, or by sea-sickness, or
other causes. 1t is also valuable external
application for Gout, Rheumatism Neuralgia, etc.

GRErLEY's OpIxIoS.-The New York Tribune
was amazed and disgusted on receiving the re-
suit of the California election. On the 7th of
September it said -" California returns, which
have grown worse daily, have at last touched the
lowest depth. The Democratic majority for
Governor is 8, 900 the Legislature is gone, hook
and line, and of course, a United States Sena-
tor with it and to fill the cup, we are told that
it is doubtful if single Republican Congress
man is chosen. The result has taught the Union
party both in New York and throughout the
country q wholesome lesson. 1t has taught US
that we can never afford either to indulge In
family quarres or to nominate any other than
nnexceptionable men. Party chicanery was al
lowed in California to effect division in our
ranks, and the enemy rushed in at the breach
and beat u.s."

Tell me not In mournful numbers
Life is sinking to decay.
Should there come in frightful numbers
Ger your heads the silvery gray.
Life Is real, life is earnest,
Why should any one despair,
"Dust thou art to dust returnest,"
Was not spoken of the hair.
Not the marks of age or sorrow,
On your tresses long should stay
You can live that each tomorrow
Find them darker than to day.
Time Is long, but age shall find you.
Though your hair with lustre wave:
Soon when fading, twill remind Won,
You are marching to the grave.
In the worlds sublimer calling,
Where we each our race mus, run,
II your hair be falling, falling,
Use the " Martha Washington"
Trust no other, howe'er pleasant
None can do what this has done;
Try it-always keep it present.
Use the Martha Washington.'
Twenty thousand heads remind US
What a noble test it's stood;
Millions more shall come behind us,
With their tresses all renewed!
