Chief-Justice Chase yesterday delivered the
opinion that the apprenticeship of negroes ia
Maryland, by the Orphans Courts, was such
species of Slavery as to come within the mean
ing of the Thirteenth Article of the Constitu-
ton, and that the Civil Rights bill was consti-
tutional. This decision will release multi
tude of such apprentices in that State.

The Italian people in the United States, in
default of any specific national doy, have be-
gun the celebration of the Discovery of America
by Columbus as an event i'll which their ma
tiOnality had a controlling participation. The
idea comes rather late, being only 375 years
after the event, hut it will do very well until
the occupation of Rome as the capital of Italy,
when they will have national anniversary OF
which any people might be proud.

Judge McCandless of the United States Dis
triet Court of Pennsylvania has decided that
in bankruptcy cases the Federal courts have
not the power to restrain by injunction any
action of State courts in such cases. The
Judge intimates that the power should be be-
slowed at the next session of Congress, in order
to make the general bankrupt law effective.

LYONS PERIODICAL DROPS
THE GREAT FEMALE REMEDY
FOR IRREGULARITIES. -s

I have tested these drops in my own practice
over ten years, and do not hesitate to say, that
nothing has yet been developed by medical re-
search, that acts powerfully, positively, and
harmlessy, in cases of female irregularity, as
does this medicine. In all recent cases it never
fails, while thousands who have been long suffer
ers, indebted to il for the boon of health to
day.
Although so powerful and positive, they are
perfectly harmless. and may be used at all times,
except when specially forbidden in the directions.
They have been extensively employed by emf
nent physicians in France and England, as well
as in my own practice, over ten yeais, and have
vet to hear of the first instance of failure
could give you testimonials of their efficacy from
ladies all over the northern and western states,
were they not IN their nature private. Over 100,-
600 bottles have been sold the past year, and I
hope and trust as many sufferers have been bene-
fitted. | am well aware teat remedy so potent
to remove all ebstrHctieEs, may he used for n bad
purpose, but trust that where one bottle is TINS
used, ten may fail into the hands of really needy
sufferers. 49,
To all who suffer from any irregularity pain
ful, difficult, excessive, offensive or obstructed
Menstruation, Lucorrhea, or the train of diseases
that follow would say, try bottle Of DR.. Ly-
ens French Periodical Drops. Being fluid
preparation, their action is direct and posi-
tive than any pills or powders. Explicit direc-
tions, wearing my facsimile, accompany each bot
tie.
They may be obtained of nearly every druggist
in the country, or by nclosing the price to c. G..

were so shattered and bruised that no fea-
ture could be recognized but from his
clothes. and an old pass found in his peck
ct. he appeared to be one of the goods fire
men then on strike. He was known to be
one of the most disaffected of the lot, and
had often been heard to utter vague
threats about serving The company OFT for
their tyranny and oppression threats SO
very vague that no one thought 1t worth
while to heed them, er look after HIM.
When found, one of his boots was missing,
but it was found few yards further on,
torn and fattened out OF all shape. Put
ting the two things together, 1t would seem
that, in jumping off the engine, his foot
had caught in the slippery iron step. He
had fallen head downwards, and had been
so dragged for considerable distance,
with his head crashing against the end of
every tie, until his boot came off, and he
had then fallen to the earth on the spot
where he was found.
None of the railway officials had any
doubt of this, but the directors considered
it expedient that the circumstances should
be suppressed, as far as possible, and, &C
cordingly, at the inquest, the men exam
ined seemed to know so little OF the mat
ter, and so little of any real Importance
came out, that the jury returned a bare YER
dict of accidental death; and, as the train
was not smashed up, land the passengers
were not all killed or dreadfully injured,
the newspapers contented themselves with

flour were added to the stock in

sirable for family use as some of
