Mr.. EDIroR The Gazette has much to say about
opposition to the Reciprocity Treaty. If it will turn
back 10 its issue of August Z, 1867, it will find the
following language
alt is not to BE- disguised that the Treaty is far from being
all which could be desired, and many PORTIONS of il are O6ee-
toHabie. . . Upder all the circumstances, the Gov
emncnt have felt il 90 he a matter Of duty To advise thu ratii-
cation Of the Treaty. But in doing so, they do not affect to
conceal their disappointment at the form in which the question
is presented, and they hesitate 10 endorse the measure as one
for tchIfh they hold thsnSSiUesf july responsible"
AT this time" says the GG-eHe of this week,
a. VIC may well look back and review the opposition
to this measure here Ii is interesting TO know that
the first opponent of the treaty was the Government
mouth piece. Stick a pin in there for future refer
ence. Yours, SORGHUM Pan.

Mr.. EDITOR Have the Government offices any
stated business hours? If so, how are they to be
ascertainei? Is the Office, or rather bookstore, of
the Board of Education for the good Of the public, or
that of the person who sits in it a part of the business
day? l have called there myself before , P. NJ, and
found the door shut. Others have called there OH
business, and i'll ordinary business hours, and at the
expense Of a long fatiguing walk, and found the i'm
perturhable door grandly, mysteriously, deiantly
shut. No notice either of when it would be open
When are people that attend school from Q A. NJ. till
- p. NJ, supposed to buy books? Mr.. Editor, l
don't believe in that style of doing things, especially
when I help pay for the concern.

LONDON. Sept. 3-The Standard. in an editorial
on the American treaty with China says: We
cannot share the jealousy and suspicion with which
the London Times regards this treaty. In it We see
nothing which shows that the United States has ac-
quiTed a monopoly of privileges, nor does the
self on the rock of slOth and stagnation. but. on the
contrary, it gives proof that the Chinese are prepar-
ing for an advance by opening the windows of the
great wall which separates the Celestial Empire
from western civilization
Admiral FarTagut. accompanied by Mr.. Morris.

with the Sultan last week. at which, after the inter

LAME BACH,
A GRAND EPOCH IN MEDICINE


DR.. Maggiel is the founder of a new medical
system. The quantitarians whose vast internal
doses enfeeble the stomach and paralyIe the bow
els and with whose external remedies the ulcerat-
ed and eruptive surfaces of the skin are deluged
in vain must give place to the man who restores
his health and appetite with from to three
harmless pills. and cures the most virulent and
scrofulous disorders with from one to three bexes
of his matchless salve.
DR.. Maggiel's Pills and Salve have ushered in
a new medical era. No mere nauseating avalsn-
ches of drastic drugs need be poured down sick
peoples throats. One of Msggiel's Pills rectifes
the disordered condition of the stomach and liver
cleanses the head and restores the nerves in q
space of time short enough TO be almost classed
: marvellous.
In fact Maggiers Bilious. Dyspeptic and Diarr-
hes Pills cure where all others fail. While for
Burns, Scalds, Chibains, Cuts, and all abrassions
of the skin. Maggiel's Salve is infalhble.
