Census of Alabama.

Alabama has just taken State Census,
and reports total population Of 9l5,2
whereof 442,445 are blacks. In 1860.
she had 9G4 4,296, Of whom 435, 1872 were
slaves. 1t is evident that her black in
habitants are just about as numerous as
in 1860, while her whites are but O,000
fewer We infer from this that the South
ern States have generally if not quite as
many inhabitants now as in 1860, and
will have more in 1870. The stories that
the blacks are ''dying out" seem to be ut
terly baseless. A good many of them
hrye migrated northward or been taken
to Texas; but they will number at least
100000 iu 1870.

CONSUMPTION DURABLE BY DIR.
SCHENCK'S MEDICINES

TO CURE ECONSUMPTION, the system
must be prepared so that the lungs will heal.
To accomplish this, the liver and stomach
must first be cleansed and an appetite crea-
ted for good, wholesome food, which, by these
medicines will be digested properly, and
good healthy blood made; thus building up
the constitution. S CH ENCK'S MAN
DRAKE PILLS cleanse the stomach of all
bilious or mucous accumulations; and, by
using the Sea Weed Tonic in connection,
the appetite is restored
SCHENCK'S PULMONIC SYRUP is
nutricious well as medicinal, and, by US
ing the three remedies, all impurities are
expelled from the system, and good, whole
some blood made, which will rcpel all dis
ease. If patients will take these medicines
according to directions, Consumption very
frequently in Its last stage yields readily
TO their action. Take the pills frequently
to cleans the liver and stomach. II
does not follow that because the bowels are
not costive they are not required, for some,
times in diarrhGa they are necessary The
stomach must be kept healthy. and an appe-
tite created to allow the Pulmonic Syrup to
act on the respiratory organs properly and
allay any irritation. Then all that is re-
quired to perform a permanent cure is, to
prevent taking cold. Exercise about the
room as much as possible, eat all the richest
food-fat meat, game, and, in fact, anything

HOW if Works.

1t i. no secret that General Grant, from
careful review of the whole ground is
satisfied that the Presidents policy, has
resulted in great mischief, by Inspiring
the South with false hopes, and causing
the leading citizens of that section to re
gard with contempt and treat with deh-
ance the laws of Congress. Gen. Thomas,
himself a Yirsinian, speaks Indignantly
of the continued outrages upon freedmen
in his department; Gen. Sheridan declares
the rebellion only half subdue ID while the
commanders of districts, like Heintzel-
man, are utterly disgustcd with the re-
constructed rebels. All the great lights
of the Army sustain Congress, a fact which
has materially Influenced the language of
the President Of late.

The special Washington correspondent
Of the New York Times revealed last week
the startling fact, that out of tUenty-three
subordinate Custom house officers in one
district on our frontier, tlcenty-t,co were
found to be in completely with smugglers,
and actually made arrangements TO abet
smuggling with the secret agent of the
Government. Itwould certainly be i'm
possible to surpass such corruption as this
in the official service of any country. 1t
gives lower standard of morals and hon
or to these functionaries than prevails
among men in any other respectable pur-
suit. And yet We cannot say, that We are
surprised at the developement. Nearly
all our revenue officers on the frontier
have been changed within year past, no
other qualifications being required of the
new appointees than that of pretending
to be in favor of 'my policy" Rascals
that would pay hypocritical homage to
Andrew Johson, were preferred to honest
men that could not be subsidized, and the
result is, the government is cheated of its
revenues and its sworn agents take the
lead in the game of public plumber.

Delaware River, above the Gap, was very
high on Monday higher than it had been

great measure, by an ice dam which
