Essence of Jamaica Ginger /!

Ea9- This valuable preparation, containing in
a highly concentrated form all the properties of
the Jamaica Ginger, has become one of TIE most
popular domestic remedies for all diseases of the
stomach and digestive organs.
AS tonic, it will be found invaluable TO all
persons recovering from debility, whether pro-
duced by fever otherwise, for whilst it imparts
to the system all the glow and vigor that can be
produced by wine or brandy, it is entirely free
from the reactionary efforts that follow the use
of spirits of any kind.
1t is also excellent remedy for females who
suffer from difficult menstruation. giving almost
immediate relief TO the spasms that so frequent
ly accompany that period.
1t gives immediate relief to Nausea, caused by
riding in a railroad car, by sea-sickness or
other causes. 1t is also valuable as an external
application for Gout. rheumatism Neuralgia etc

SoUSp REAsoSISo.-The following well-timed
remarks from the Meadow Lake Sun are reprint
cd for the consideration of those who still main
tain the principles advocated by the Union party
during the war:
"There never was time, perhaps, in the pol
itical history of the country, when thorough or
ganizaton was so all-important as at the present
moment. In fact, the great object of the Union
party is to organize the conflicting and dscord-
ant elements, resulting from the internecine con-
test from which the nation has emerged Let
Union men, therefore, combine-let them work
side by side, shoulder to shoulder. single
column is stronger than many detached forces
That General is never successful who fights his
army by dribblets, instead of in grand, we'll
organized divisions. In union, combination and
organization, there is strength. The party which
saved, yes, saped, the country in the dark days
of the rebellion, when the black flag of treason
foated over eleven States, is fit to govern in time
of peace. The power which subdued rebels, is
the power to reconstruct them. The men and
party who were true to principle and loyal to the
country in the dark and trying times of seces-
sion, arc likely to be true and loyal to principle
and county in the calmer days of reconstruction
The work of the Union party is but half done.
The contest, it is true, has been changed from
the field to the forum, from the camp to the leg
islative hall. The war of bullets has indeed
given place to a war of ballots. If we believed
in the policy of the party in days gone by, how
we have less faith in this somewhat brighter
present? 1t is the imperative duty of all truly
loyal men to stand by the old organization,
fighting for principles dear to liberty-loving
people, and just and true as the God in heaven" F"

this State there such nnanimity of senti-
meut among the press and people upon similar
subject. That we think is true. And the same
may be said, though in a lesser degree, of one of
the candidates for Leutenant-Gov George
s. Evans. While no paper flies his name, be-
cause, perhaps, he does not aspire to head a

biography and otherwise favorably noticed his

An Underground River In Ohio, \

[From the Fremont (Ol journal
It is not generally known that there ex-
lists, about mile west of Fremont, re-
markable underground stream, with a
swift current, and no outlet above the SUI

farm north of the Four Mile House, now
owned by widow Shelter, by a man who

sunken place, he noticed hollow sound

dictate nothing save streams Ihtohgn'an
almost unbroken wilderness, will soon
Oe dotted over with the sites of flourish
ing towns and cities. A correspondent,
writing from Cheyenne, Dakotah Terri
tory, the present terminus of the road,
gives All interesting description of the
city and its surroundings. Cheyenne is
situated at the base proper of the Rocky
Mountains, and is over six thousand feet
above the level of the sea. 1t is 1920
miles from Chicago, 1888 miles from San'
Francisco, 517 miles from the Missouri
river, 5l5 miles from Salt Lake City, and
100 miles north of Denver. 1t is loca-
ted, as it were, in the middle of tea
saucer, the ground rolling gently up to
the summit of ridge, which forms al
most an unbroken chain around the
city. Four months ago there was not
a house standing where Cheyenne now
is. Two weeks ago the houses were
counted to over three hundred and fifty,
and since then more than a hundred
buildings have been erected, and among
them are many substantial and costly
ones-some of stone, a few of brick,
some adobe, but most of them are wood
en-. Most of the lumber has been
brought from Denver, but now it begins
to roll in from Michigan, cut of the
Omaha market. The foundation is laid
and hotel is being built upon it, the
estimated cost OF which is nearly hun
dred thousand dollars. A public school
is being built, and several otrer public
buildings are in contemplation. The
population is estimated at four thous-
and, but every passenger train which
arrives adds to the number. Boarding
is ten to twelve dollars per week, -four
twelve to fourteen dollars per sack,
wood twenty dollars per cord, and coal
eighteen dollars per ton. Carpenters
wages are eight dollars day, and other
mechanics are paid at prOpertionate
rates. The town is located at the in
tersection of the contemplated Denver
Railroad, connecting with the Southern
Pacific route, and is already becoming
a market for the mining districts. Gold,
copper, iron and coal are among the
minerals found, and the agricultural in
ducements are considerable. The scene
ry is grand -the majestic Rocky Noun
tains towering high in the west, and
kissing the sky with their snowy lips.
To the north of the great range, and
eighteen miles off are the Black Hills,
standing like seutinels to their lordly
master. In the southwest is seen the
white robed summit of Longs Peak,
and to the south, in clear weather,
Pixies Peak is visible sin the dim dis
tance." Then to the east stretches out
the beautiful rolling prairies. The at
mosphere is generally dry; always pure
and very buoyant. The climate, al
though in winter very cold, is most de-
lighttul.

meaning men of the Radical party ar,
opposed to Acknowledgement for pursl,
partisan purposes. In many localities
they nave seen their neighbors and
friends, men upon whose skirts no taint
OF disloyalty can be found, stricken
from the Registry for no reason save
that we have indicated. The effect is q
reaction in their minds against the par
ty that sustains such iniquity.
We might cite illustrations in support
OF this. The Registration axe has been
swung with terrible vigor, in such
counties as Barbour, Tucker, Randolph.
Hampshire, Hardy, Marion, and many
Others that We might name, and yet the
Radlcal R maiorities ip those. counties
are being thinned, new recruits are
coming in from the Radical camp, often,
it is true, to share the fate of their pre-
decessors, but still they come, and their
disfranchisement becomes an additional
thorn to buffet their oppressors.
In no locality in West Virginia, has
the rebel element taken any part in the
elections since the passage of the Regis
tration Law, while in many, the Regis
trars have. for more than eighteen
months, been working upon the original
Union men of the State. To disfran-
chise such men is to assure the ultimate
ruin of the party which does it. Sue
cess obtained by such means can be, at
best, but temporary, and when d~feat
does come, it will be total and final.
We think that the Denscratic aud
Conservative voters of West Virginia
have everything to encourage them, as
the situation now stands. Despite the
injustice done them by the party in
power, they are daily gaining strength
while their foes are hourly growing
demoralized and feeble. Let them but
adopt the proper measures OF organiza-
tion, "learn to labor and to wait" and
thore is no future event more certain,
than their ultimate triumph in the
State of West Virginia.
