In Justitia,

Time and again in our journalistic career we have
been called upon to recommend medicinal prepare
tions and, in some instances, inducements such as
nothing but the strongest sense our responsibility
could withstand have been held out to extort some
kind of a notice in Endorsement of patent med
icine. There are two simple rules which should
guide an editor, and which, if strictly adhered to
will save much vexation and wrong doing. The en-
couragement Of all that is good and worthy, and the
condemnation of all that is bad and unworthy; and
these rules should equally apply to sources from
which we derive patronage, as well as to matters of
political, scientific moral or religious nature 1t
is thus the duty should be pleasure of the con-
scientious journalist to commend to his readers
whatever of good character may be brought to his
notice Especially should he exercise caution where
the health of individuals is concerned-not overlook
ing the fact that temporal life in this world is only
less in Importance to the spiritual life in the world
to come.
We are lead to these reflections from the adver-
tisemeut in another column, of 'Dr. j. w. Poland's
White Pine Compound, amedicine which the high
est medical authority, as well as the testimony of
thousands upon thousands who have been restored
to health and vigor through its wonderful agency
endorse the best patent medicinal article of this
or any other period. If success may be taken as
test of merit, then the White Pine Compound, from
its great success may be taken test of merit then
the Viii Pine Compound, from its great success,
may be conceded the most meritorious article in the
market.
Sore Threats, Colds, Coughs, Pulmonary affec-
tons, and all complaints of like chaTacteras well as
the different diseases of the Bladder and Kidneys
yield with astonishing rapidity to this medicine.
1t is difficult to conceive the genus of man who
will allow himself to suffer- for perhaps years, with
these distressing maladies rather than expend a
dollar for a medicine which thousands assure him
they hnoao viii restore him to perfect health But
it is not difficult to estimate the social and business
loss which single weeks suffering from acute pain
may occasion. There may be men who would vii,
ingy give thousands to make reparation for an in
jury done fellow, but who would begrudge pa l.
try dollar to appease their outraged nature in less
enlightened portions of the world but we doubt If
any such eau be found in rich and fertile sur
roundings.-Neeo England Medical and Surgical

Ranhanns Oandatus,

On a recent visit to The garden of our san
cie1st' friend II. F. Phelps, on Park Avenue we
were very agreeably entertained in examining
and by being shown many new, rare and beau
tiful plants. Prominent among the vegeta-
bles were the "Raphanus Caudatus," and
"Japaneze Maize,''- very curious and
singular plants. Some ofthe pods on the for
mer; measured two feet and seven inches. The
latter is the most valuable acquisition for dec
oratiye purposes we have ever seen.
Friend Phelps gives us the following history
of these very singular plants.
The ''Raphanus Caudatus' is q native of
India, whence the seeds were derived. 1t be-
longs to the radish tribe, the pods being the
edible portion, The seeds were first received
at the Edingburgh (ScOtland) Botanic Garden
in April 1865; and the pods were exhibited in
July of the same year. This radish received
first class certificate, the highest award that
could be made to a new vegetable, at the eel
ebrated International Horticultural Exhibi-
ton held in London last spring. The seeds
terminate and the plants grow very rapidly.
With me it lowered in AZ days after sowing.
The petals are whitish, tipped with purple,
and trayersed by purple veins, or streaks.-
Each plant has from Is to 20 seed vessels, and
some OF them two feet and seven inches long,
and varying in color from green to purple, or
a mixture of the two. The plants are perfectly
hardy, growing well in the open air. Those
| grown at Edingburgh; and by Mr.. Bull of
Chelsea, England Towering much more pro-
fusely out OF doors, than those grown in the
greenhouse. The rapidity of the growth Of
the pod is very remarkable. 1t grew with me
four inches in one night. These long fruits
hang upon the plant, some quite straight
while others are twisted and curled in all di-
rections, giving the plant very peculiar ap-
pearance. The greatest twisting or contor-
tiohs of the seed vessels, occur when the seeds
are mostly in the upper portion of the pod
The economic value of this plant lies entirely
in these long seeded vessels. They are GER
tainIy of much more delicate flavor than the
common esculent radish root, with, perhaps,
a little more pungency. They can be eaten
raw, jim their young state as an ordinary rad
ish, or in salads, or as pickles. 1t is however
when the pods are boiled and served as aspar-
agus on toast, that they are most delicious
having a most delicate flavor, resembling
slightly the flavor of early green peas. Indeed
these seed pods are to be regarded as one of
the most useful vegetables that have been in
PRODUCED for years. 1t is a fact that any one
can see by examining the specimens in my
garden that as the plants mature the pods of
| the Raphanus Caudatus are SO numerous and
heavy, as to render a substantial support to
branches from being broken. have discov-
cred also that after the first crop has ripened,
a new crop will Immediately put out from the
same plants, some Of the pods are already 3
! foot in length.

More improvements.

Kenosha is still making progress. We have
before this noticed the erection and commence
ment of several first class residences and the
general brushing up and repairing throughout
the city
In no one year during the last ten has so
much been accomplished. There seems to be
general faith in the future of our city. This
is particularly manifest in the improvements
made by JOSIAH BOND, Esq, upon his proper
ty.
The old Foster farm, just outside the city
limits, upon the highest ground in the vicini-
ty of our town, has recently been sub divided,
new streets laid out, graded and fenced, and
the whole aspect so changed that an old resi-
dent would scarcely recognize. We were
not aware, before recent ride over the prop
erty of its capacity for improvements.
Kenosha has many beautiful residence loca-
tions, but the lots upon one of the new streets
laid out upon the ridge of the highest land,
fronting east, and overlooking the city and
the Lake, cannot be excelled in Kenosha.
There are also some beautiful groves, that
can be made available at once, for those who
cannot afford TO wait for shade trees to grow
But the great beauty to our minds, of the
whole arrangement is the fact that Mr.. Bond
has decided not to sell the property in lots of
less than two acres, thus giving opportunity
for the fullest ornamentation with trees and
shrubbery, and ample room for gardens:
As kenosha increases, we are satisfied the
handsome residences must go onto this prop
erty, as in no other quarter can as desirable
locations be obtained.
We hope the rapid disposal of the property
will Justify Mr.. Bond in his improvements and
prove that his faith in the future of Kenosha,
is not misplaced.

TIE WASHINGTON LIBRARY COMPANY of
Philadelphia gains credit and support every
day. The sales of stock surpass all eXpecta-
ton, and the prospect is, that the funds for
the noble object will be secured even in ad-
vance ofthe time anticipated. The reason is
obvious. The design is worthy, and credta-
BILE to the patriotic hearts who are laboring to
reward too much neglected class. The funds
go into responsible hands, and the public have
no fears that they will be mis-drected. The
plan adopted satisfies the scruples of the most
conscientious, and has the endorsement of en-
inent legal authority. 1t is by its distinctive
features entirely removed from the faint of
catch-penny schemes which have so often been
the means of imposing on the public. 1t gives
to purchasers of its stock full equivalent for
the consideration paid. All its transactions
are open and above board. 1t has no conceal
ments, and the reputation of the managers is
such that they cannot afford to be dishonest
in this transaction. Read advertisement

we have many improvements going on about
the city that are highly praiseworthy. The
sidewalks and street crossing in various parts
of the city are being renewed and put in ex-
cellent order.
Among tn private improvements we may
mention that our fellow citizen Seth Doan, has
made quite change for the better, in the APP
pearance about his residence. A portion of
the super-abundant shade of foliage has been
removed, a new fence has been built, new
sidewalk has been laid all the way around and
the large oak that stood in the centre of the
sidewalk in front of the house has been re-
moved. And finally, he has had his house re-
painted neat brown color, that gives it quite
q distingue appearance.
