May rest assured that the manufacturers spare
neither pains nor expense In the preparation Of
these remedies. They arc made OF the very best

THE .sURRATT TRIAL.

A careful reading Of the report of the trial
of John H. Surratt, now going on at Washing
ton, as it is given in the Eastern papers, can
rot fail to satisfy any impartial person that the
whole transaction is grave, infamous mock
cry Of law and justice. The Judge who pre-
sides over the case VIGOROUSLY acts as chief
prosecutor of the unfortunate prisoner, and in
his ruling, for the admission of every species
of testimony which will tend to establish the
cause of the prosecution, and bis rejection of
all testimony which is likely to clearly prove
the innocence of Surratt, very plainly reveals
his determination to effect a conviction, in the
face of facts, proofs, law and justice. That
Judge Fisher is eithcr bribed or cOerced by
Stanton, Holt & Co., to prosecute the prisoner
to the death, we cannot doubt after review
of his course so far during the trial. So have
the main witnesses for the prosecution exhib-
tied the apparent fact that they come to APP
pear in the present case. as Sandford Como
yer and other witnesses for the prosecution
did in the trial Of Surratt's innocent mother
"a the bribed, perjured tools of the Secretary
of War and the Judge Advocate OF the Militia
II (Murdering) Commission 70 show the
character OF some Of the witnesses on the part
of the prosecution, and to further show the
zeal and eagerness manifested by Gen. Ashley,
member Of Congress from Ohio, to procure
the conviction of Surratt, we extract the fol-
lowing from the report of the trial as given in
the Baltimore Sun of June Goth:
w. e. Cleayer, called by the prosecution,
was cross examined by Mr. Bradley, Surratt's
counsel, and the following facts wrung from
him 80 3&4Ef ltIAH 8iHE E8#8

tend to degrade him. 4 - ssAk41

ANECDOTE OF MAxIMILIAN.-La
Presse gives an anecdote which con.
veys a pleasant impression Of the
Emperor Macmillan. An officer
was taking walking tour through
the mountainous district of Ischl,
and having lost his way, he went
into a cottage to inquire the road.
The poor woman to whom it be-
longed instantly desired her, little
boy to accompany the young man to
the turn of the road, and show him
which path he was to take. This
service having been faithfully per-
formed, the officer gave the child
money. The boy refused, remark
ing that military men never had
money. "Ah!" said the young
officer, chow do you know that :"
"B-cause my brother is in the army,
and he never has any. My mother
sold her last stack of corn this very
day in order to send him some"
The young man, touched by the
story, returned to the cottage, and
leaving his purse with the poor
woman, promised to protect her
son. The officer was the Archduke
Macmillan.

The Rejected Bank Note.

"What is the price Of this dressing
gown, sir?" asked sweet-faced girl
entering the elegant store of Huntley
& Warner, in city and a street Of
city which shall be nameless.
1t was cloudy day. The clerks
lounged over tie counter and yawned.
The man 10 HON Alice Locke ad-
dressed herself was jaunty and mid
dle-agrd H. was head clerk of the
extensive establishment of Huntley
u Warner, and extremely conse-
quentiai in manner.
This dressing gown we value at
six dollars-you shall have it for
five as trade is dull to day."
"E'ive dollars" Alice looked at
the dressing gown longingly, and the
clerk looked at her. He saw that
her clothes, though made and worn
genteelly, were common enough in
texture, and that her face was very
much out of the common line. How
it changed! now shaded, now lighted,
by the varied play Of her emotions.
The clerk could almost have sworn
that she had no more than that sum,
five dollars, in her possession.
The gown was very good one
for the price. 1t was of common
shade, a tolerable merino, and lined
with the same material.
Il think" -she hesitated a mo-
ment-"I think I will take it," she
said; then seeing in the face before
her an expression she did not like,
she blpshed as she handed out the
bill the clerk had made up his mind
to take.
"Dennis," cried Torrent, the head
clerk, in quick, pompous tone, "pass
up the bank note detector."
Up ran the tow-headed boy with
the detector, and down ran the clerks

How To Go TO BED.-Hall's
Journal of Health gives the follow
ing advice how to go to bed in winter
time. Those who practice retiring
on the "cuddle up" plan will readily
fall in with these suggestions:
Do it in a hurry, if there is no fire
in the room and there ought not to
be unless you are quite an invalid.
But if person is not in good
health, it is best to undress by a
good fire. warm and dry the feet
well; draw ON the stockings again
run into room without fire; jump
into bed, cuddle up, with head and
ears under cover for minute or
more; until you feel little warmth;
then uncover your head; next, draw
off your stockings, straighten out,
turn over on your right side, and 60
to sleep.
Ii a sense Of chilliness come over
you ON getting into bed it will always
do an injury; and its repetition in
creases the i'll effect, without having
any tendency to "harden" you. Ma
ture abhors violence. We are never
shocked into health. Hard usage
makes no garment last longer.

ALLEGHENY COUNTY.

The majority for Williams in
Allegheny county, which will be
not far from six thousand, is not
as large as it should have been.
1t is, however, about of a piece
with the rest of the State-hav-
ing some spots where the Repub-
licans have made positive gains.
The vote east is small-and the
result, so far from demonstrating
a change in popular sentiment,
only proves that here, as well as
elsewhere, thousands of Repub-
licans had business somewhere
else than at the polls.
The majority for Errett for
Senator, while he receives a good
many less votes than Williams,
will be greater over Barr than
Williams majority over Shars-
wood. Barr Jared badly all
round. Salisbury probably took
some five hundred votes from
him, while the Workingmen
made inroads that helped todam-
age him as a running man.
BURT, the Workingmen's can
didate, has probably received in
the ncighborhood of four thous-
and votes, and it has been dem
onstrated that nobody on that
ticket at any time had the ghost
of a chance of being elected
