DIR. Holloway, some fifteen years ago,
witnessing the distress occasioned sickly
children in taking the nauseous vermi-
fugcs of that day, resolved to annalyze
them, and from the most effective Of
these remedies succeeded in separating
their active medical properties, pure,
tasteIess and inodorous. Then, by
combining these with sugar, and mold
ing them into an agreeable confeetion,
formed the present POPULAR and EFFEc-

A Trap for General Grant.


Although General Grant has no experience
in the crooked ways of politics. he is too
shrewd and cautious to be drawn into Re-
publican ambuscade. The only reason why
any part of the Republican party have pro-
posed him for the Presidency is their fear
that he may be nominated by the Demo-
Gratis. There is nothing in his character or
his antecedents which can recommend him
to the Republicans. He was bred, and, as
we may say, born Democrat; his father
being staunch supporter of Democratic
principles, as the public well know from the
conversation between him and President
Johnson, reported in the newspapers last year.
During the war General Grant won all
his laurels by hard and skilful fight
ing, never once attempting to court the
party in power by incense to their black
idol. At the close of the war, the terms OF
surrender he accorded to General Lee and
the Rebel army were so liberal and generous
as to give universal dissatisfaction to the Re-
publican party. When the Southern State
Governments had been reconstructed under
the auspices of President Johnson, General
Grant made a tour of inspection in the South
and reported that the people gave satisfactory
proofs of loyalty, and deserved TO be trusted.
This was abOnt the time Of the first meeting Of

PETROLEUM IN FRANoR.-The French are
making fresh discoveries of bituminous shale,
capable OF yielding petroleum by distiilation.
One OF the most recently worked deposits is
that of Vagnas, in Ardeche, which has been
carefully described by M. L. Simonin. 1t
belongs essentially to the tertiary formation,
and is more strictly of the "bog head" type
than OF the bituminous shale series. It's tex
ture is dense and compact resembling car
bonized and compressed peat. The peaty
character is still further shown by the presence
OF number of vegetable fbres, which may be
seen with the naked eye, and which pass from
This substance yields about five per cent. of

There seems no longer any doubt as to the

President. All accounts concur in represent

II is difficult to reconcile the Presidents
action in the matter with any intelligent de-

thus far is the shy fighting against Grant from

given very elaborate and lengthy
opinion on the Military Reconstruc.
tion Law telegraphic synopsis of
which (tself very lengthy 10 all
that we have seen, Itmay be briefly
stated that tho giSt Of the opinion
consists in a denial that the Ian
under which the district command
ers hold their Offices gives them any
power either to remove or appoint
civil officers, TO take possession Of
the revenues. or to meddle with
the civil administration Of the State
in any way, except so far as may

imposed upon them OF protecting
the lives and property Of The peo
pie, aud ..,where civil tribunals fail
-of constituting military courts
for thetrial Of offenders. These du
ties, he holds, are clearly defined ir
the law; and their business is tc
confne themselves strictly TO ii

This opinion, If carried out ir

will result in the practical ullif
