The writer, after giving O lengthy
history of the early popular votes in
France, proves from that that the
French Constitution is based upon
the will of the people only, and is
changeable only by the vote of the
people. He then passes on to review
the course of the Emperor towards
the people, and contends that in the
DEGREES of 1860 and 1867, wherein
certain liberal reformsare guaranteed,
the Emperor manifests that he seeks
to adopt the covenant to progress
and liberty. Napoleon's authorship
of the work in question is anthorita-
lively denied. It is now said that
the Secretary of the Emperor's Cabi-
net (Conte) was the writer.

Blood, Blood, Out I Say f"

CLEANSE out these perilous spots, pim-
~ pies, corrupt sores, which pollute the
life OF the blood, and render your body .
loathesome thing. They are the precur-
a much more Formidable shape if allowed
to 60 on unchecked. The QUEENS DE-
LIGHT, the only real blood purifier that
has ever been invented, as thousands will
to-day attest, is offered to the afflicted as
positive remedy for all diseases flowing
from vitiated condition OF the system.
THE LIFE OF THE FLESH Is PURE
BLOOD. Upon this theory alono the in
ventor of the Queens Delight establishes
the great hygienic law, WITHOUT PURE
BLOOD NO FLESH Is FREE FROM DIS.
EASE. The Pale and Shrunken Forms,
Yellow Faces. Weak Stomachs, Diseased
Hiveps| Crippled na nRheamatics Nervous
Headache, so common in this country, Is
owing entirely to the humors of the blood.
Very many other diseases may be traced to
bad blood, Scrofula or Kings Evil, Erysi-
pelas, ExauthemR or Elevure, rash or
eruption on females; Blotches, Tetter.
philitic Sores, Strumous Ulcers, &o.
These cannot be cured without purifying
the blood Now as to the remedy. There
is no other blood purifier that will accom-
plish such positive and extraordinary cures
as Heinitshs Queens Delight. You may
take barrel of extract Sarsaparilla, and
still you will not be cured; and, as a proof
of it, look around and you will observe the
country, throughout its length and
breadth, is flooded with compound Sarsa-
parillas, extracts and syrups, claiming to
be blood purifiers, and yet we see to-day
more evidence OF impurity Of the blood
than ever. Why is this? Simply because
these extracts and Sarsaparillas are worth
less medicines.
The Queens DELIGHT ia new cornnopnd
and IL now tho great blood medicine; Sane
toned by the profession, patropized by the
highest dignitaries Of the land, endorsed
by everybody.
In the brief period of twelve months,
over 5000 cases have been treated so sue
cesefully as to entitle it to be the wonder
OF the age.
For debility, prostration, nervousness,

light. This is not the Extract OF Stellin-
gia or Queens Delight. nor is 1t Com

Spirited Card from tho XVffe or nn
.- Editor. '

'.. Editor. 20
Col. Galloway, editor of the Mem
phis -Apdla,che, having been commit
ted to prison by VIM. Hunter, Judge
of the Criminal Court of Memphis,
on charge of contempt, his wife
assumes, in the following card, the
editorial charge and conduct of that
paper:
"Twenty-six years ago, I gave my
girlish heart to the husband whose
name I proudly own. We have lived
through adversely and prosperity,
but in whatever condition our lots
have been cast, calumny has never
dared to assail my husbands name.
Notwithstanding this fact, he was
yesterday torn from his little family
and is now prisoner in the County
Jail; but, thank God, he is prisoner
without n crime. He has been torn
from his home for the offence of ex-
ercising the rights which are his by
the laws of the land. To a free
country free press is as indispensa-
BILE as light is to day. 1t is, in fact,
the sun of the social and political
system, from which emanate the
healthy influences which produce
vitality. strength and fertility. For
exercising rights which the Constitu-
tion guarantees, my husband has
been incarcerated in Jail. Not only
my prayers, but the prayers of all
good people of both sexes, will follow
him in his prison cell. L shall not
speak unkindly of the man who has
sought to degrade my husband and
who has Brought unhappines upon
two families. But Us the principal
editor and the local editor have both
been arrested, and no freeman is
allowed to speak through the columns
of the Aoaldnche, there is no other
alternative left but for me to assume
the position forced upon me by the
persecution and misfortunes which
despotism always brings upon the
noble and the brave. A preconcert-
ed arrangement has been made to
crush out tho paper. It cannot be
done. During the incarceration of
my husband and Mr.. Campbell, I
am constrained to take charge of the
paper, and can be found at the edi-
torial rooms of the Aoaianche, and If
men are not brave enough to defend
their rights and their liberties, 1
trust the paper, of the next ten days,
will prove that there is one woman
ready to defend the rights and the
liberties which weak and timid men
seem disposed to yield.
'FANNY B. GALLANVAY."
The latest phase of the above is
that Judge Hunter, of the Criminal
Court at Memphis, who has distin-
guished himself by the incarceration
of editors in that city, has adjourned
the court on the double pretext that
it is impossible to enforce his deci-
sions and that his life has been en-
dangered. The Memphis press ridi-
cule alike his actions and his asser-
tions. The main cause of his closing
the court appears to have been the
raleaae cf the editors of tho fnuioun-
phis AcDlanche on a writ of habeas
corpus, which release he declares was
illegal.
