While he declares to the public that this is most
wonderful and effective specific for Hunors as stated
above, he has abundant proof hand to sustain his
statement
1 For sixteen years the HUMoR Doctor has been
manufactured and sold and every year has increased
the value of its reputation, and the amount of its
sales. In New Hampshire, where it originated no
remedy for humors is so highly priced. An eminent
physician (now an army surgeon) when practicing in
New Hampshire, purchased between, fifty and sixty
gallons of it, during some seven or eight years and
usedlt in his practice. He has since then ordered it
for the hospital where he was stationed Other phy-
scians have purchased and have used it in practice
with great success. When the proprietor lived in
New Hampshire, at GolStown Centre. for the space
of thirty or forty miles around, and in Manchester
particularly the Humor Doctor was well known and
highly valued for the numerous and wonderful cures
which it effected. Though manufactured in large
quantities, the supply was frequently exhausted and
purchasers hadto wait for more to he made. In that
region some very severe cases of Erysipelas were
treated with-and they were cured! Erysipeas Sores

used. So it was with Scrofta and Salt Rleum. The
Humor Doctor cured them.

Truths For Wives.

In domestic happiness, the Wife's in

are created or destroyed. No fortune
can stand the constant Ieakages of eX-
travagance and ag6ment-and
more is spent in tribes than women
would easily believe. The one great
expense, whatever it may be, is turned
over and carefully reflected on, and the
income is prepared to meet it bu5 It is
pennies imperceptibly siding away
which do mischief; and this the wife
can stop, for it does not come within
mans province. There is often an IN
suspected tIifie to be saved in every
household.
1t is not in economy alone that the
wife's attention is SO necessary, but in
those niceties which make a well regu-
lated house. An -1nfurnished CrueG-
stand, a missing key, buttOnless shirt
q soiled talbIe-clOth, a mustard-pot with
its old, cod contents shaking down
about it, are really nOthings but each
can raise an angry word and cause dis
comfort.
Depend upon it there is a great deal
OF domestic happiness ABOUT Well
dressed mutton chop, or tidy break

tired of music, are often too wearied
for conversation, however intellectual /;
but they can always appreciate q we'll

A woman may love her husband de-
VOtedly-may sacrifice fortune, friends,
family, country, for him ; she may
have the genius Of SapphO, the en-
chanting beauties of an Armida +; but
melancholy fact-if with these she fails
to make his home comfortable, his heart
will inevitably escape her. And wo-
men live so entirely in the affections,
that without love their existence is void.
Better submit, then, to household tasks
| however repugnant they may be to your
1 tastes, than doom yourself to a lOveless
home. Women of a higher order OF
mind will not run this risk they know
that their feminine. their domestic, are
their first duties.

WHAT THE SLANDERER OF SoLDIERs
WIVES HAS TO SAY OF SHERIDAN.-Iti is
seldom that any one finds anything
meaner or more contemplate, even In
the bomb she'll proof rebel papers Of Che
North, than the following from the
Cincinnati Enquirer of the 20th:
As predicted by your Columbus dis
patch of yesterday, the reception Of
Philip Sheridan, about which SO much
noise was made by the Creset leagues,
was a wretched failure. The escort
consisted Of about fifty niggerH, two car
riages, three buggies and one wagon,
the latter being an advertising concern
for the Western Horse Insurance Conn
pany, with the word horEe-theives con-
spicuously displayed.
This incident had the singular effect
Of suggesting to the dislOyal the char
acUer Of the performances Of the hero Of
the Shenandoah Valley. At the Neil
House a crowd of several hundred as
sembIed to see the Duke Of Orleans, but
not q single cheer greeted him. He
could make no speech. He left at two
o'clock, pursued to the depot by one
band, two carriages, containing the
Abolition committee, and a gang OF
ga Minis.

their guns in good and evil report but,
who look upon the negro (''4liggeTs" as

begets bad pFinciples) as the Pioneers
did upon an Indian, something not to be
handled without gunpoWder. Now, il
they vote against the amendment to the
Constitution they give their moral
lUeigbt to aid the Democrats. That is just
what they don't mean to do; but they

cut of Paradise by eating the forbidden
fruit, when she did not mean to do any
IN hand with Adam, the world before
them where to choose, she no doubt
thought, If she only had that to do over
again she would never listen to the devil
or eat the apple; not she When our

by giving them aid and comfort in vOt-
ing AGAINST the ameudment) then they
would feel like Eve when, having list
eued to the serpent, she left Paradise
with mournful steps. The negro vote
OF Ohio, If given Is OF no importance,
but a vote against &c is q vote morally
in favor Of the CoppsrheRds- Think
we'll of it, conservative Republicans T.
Think whether you really mean to give
aid and comfort to ValIandighQm and
the Copperheads Now
the way 70 do It Is to bring out a full
vote of the great Republican Counties
The Legislature and the amendment
will both be carried by the weight Of
the general vote and this viii be done
as efectually by giving the full vote of
the Republican counties - in any other
way. For this purpose there must be
local, effective organization. The speak
ing, canvass, and popular meetings are
n our favor. Hayes is doing admira-
bly,; and such speakers as Logan bring
out all the heart and zeal of the people.
But we want ORGANIZATION! Organize
organic everywhere for township
work Our country was not more in
danger in Decem Der, 1861, than it is
now. johnson, rebels, Copperheads,
spectators, sWindlers-al combined
make a formidable host; and though
the country will be saved, we may have
to save it through another JfeTV ordeal.
We say, then, do the work while you
CAN do it, effectually. You have scotch

otism.-E. D. III. I9s Gin GGzette.

WHO HINDERS ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
gress has prescribed the terms and
methods of Reconstruction; the Gen
erals commanding the several Southern
districts have obeyed the laws prescrib-
ing the registration of legal voters in
the several revolted States and cleo
tiOns might and doubtless would have
been held in most of them ere this, but
for intervention of Andrew Johnson
and his Cabinet. They have ordered
the elections postponed and the regis
tries reOpened, under conditions which
Gen. Sheridan 50 justly condemned as
opening a macadGmized highway to per-
jury. And those elections still await
the signal from Washington.
If, then, Military governments, such
as Congress has established, are despOt-
ic and every way Objectionable, the
President Is responsible for their con-
tinuance. These f'satrapies," as our
adversaries stigmatize them, ale de-
signed for gateways through which the
Southern States shall return to that pO-
sition in the Union which they deliber-
ately abandoned. Not by Con, -oRs nor
by the laws, but by the Presid ynt's ar
bitrary VIII, are those States Kept un-
der Military rule.
If those States shall not ] sturn to
their normal conpitiOn in seas, n to vote
for President next Fall, let tie blame
rest where it shOuld-on the shoulders
of Andrew johnson and the Copperhead
party.-N. 7. Tribune.

THE ANENDNENT.-YVe are informed
by a gentleman who has recently trav-
e1ed through some thirty counties in the
State, stopping day or more in each,
that all opposition to the amendment
on the part of Union men has disap-
peared. The little opposition that eI-
listed a few months ago has been eftectu-
ally dissipated by the unceRsing violence
of the Copperhead stumpers no less
than by the solid arguments of the Un-
ion speakers.
Ali agree that il Is only a question Of
time, and a majority Of the people, in
cluding a very respectable number Of
Democrats, are satisfied that the time
has come now to do justice to all classes
of our citizens. Greatnumbers of Dem
ocrats express regrets that their leaders
have been so foolish as to make this q
party question. They say that funda-
mental questions like this are above all
party platforms, and though they may
vote the Democratic ticket, they wtlp
exercise the right of manhood suffrage
themselves, and vote as they please on
this proposition. Were it not for the
perfection of party drill, thousands Of
men would vote for the proposition,
whose votes will be made to count
against it.--J0lanGL
