The Radicals are losing some Of their
biggest guns in Georgia, and as things
are now going they will soon be without
an electoral ticket The following an-
nonncement appears in the Cuthbert
Appeal Of the 9th instant:
1--WE have the pleasure Of announcing,
by authority, that Hon. Edward X. Har-
den, thoroughly disgus,ed with the course
pursued o. Bullock, Brown & Co, aud
the evil tendency Of Southern Radical
ism, declines to run upon their electoral
ticket, aud, on the contrary, will exert
all Of his powers for the defeat Of Grant
and the election Of Seymour aud Blair
A few days ago Hon. w. W. Boyd, Of
DAhlonega, another nominee on the Geor-
gia Grant and Colfax electoral ticket,
came out for Seymour aud Blair, and We
see from the Savannah papers that A. A.
Wilbur, another electoral candidate, has
declined running.
We suggest TO the Radical leaders in
Atlanta instantly to take bosd and sec1-
rity Of the remaining candidates on their
electoral ticket that they do not follow
suit Stop the lesks-don't lei Grant

II is remarkable that the only place 10
Tennessee where troops are at present
required to enforce the laws is "loyal" ;"
East Tennessee. This is particularly
the case in the district represented by
Horace Maynard and in which Governor
Brownlow resides. The. Internal Rev.
enue Collector for that district has been
compelled to apply for United States
troops to enable him TO enforce the law
regulating the distillation of liquors.
There are large number of the Radicals
of East Tennessee who are engaged in
illicit distilling, and they resist the In-
ternal Revenue Collector by force when
he comes to enforce the law enacted by
Congress, and company of cavalry has
been stationed at Knoxville for some
time past subject to the call of the Col
lector Governor Brownlow feels that
this is a severe reflection upon the law
abiding disposition OF his loyal subjects,
and he apoligises for them through his
paper, the Knoxville Whig, after the
following fashion:
"The rebels and copperheads seek to
prejudice Union men against the Radical
party because small company of regu-
lar troops, to enable the revenue officers
to enforce the whisky laws, have been
stationed at Knoxville. These men
making the complaints are the very men
who procured the troops to be sent here.
1t is the work of the rebels TO oppress
loyal men. The distiler who makes one
run of liquor is caught up violently and
thrust into Jail, and his tubs and copper
stills are confscated, while the huge
Democratic thieves of New York, known
as the whisky ring, are allowed to defraud
the government upon a large scale, pro-
vided they will literally contribute in
furtherance of the corrupt schemes of
the national administration. In other
words, the poor East Tennessesu who
makes one run of corn whisky, is ar
rested, imprisoned and broken up, while
the wholesale robbers in New York and
elsewhere escape scot free. The dark
villainy of those corrupt men who will
try to raise howl about small COM
pany of men stationed in Knoxville, to
prevent oh a small scale what they are
doing by the Wholesale, is obvious upon

Who are the "tloated bondholders" to
whom Democratic papers and speakers are
daily applying the most opprobrious epithets
and scurrilously abusings Let us see. -Four
hundred millions of dollars worth of bonds
are owned in Germany, held by the
friends and relatives of our German citizens.
They purchased them when defeat, disgrace
and national ruin were staring US in the face.

rebellion. they should be redeemed with
gold. Firm in their belief in the stability of
our free institutions, and that the national
word was pledged in good faith. coupled
with an anxiety to assist US, they contributed
largely towards the victory which we won.
Thus far the interest on the bonds has been
promptly paid in gold. The Democrats are
in favor of paying, not only the interest, but
the principal. in greenbacks. Will our Ger

NERVOUS AFFECTIONS.

NNHE SHAPES OF THE CLOUDS AND
the trees do not differ more widely than
the forms of nervous disease. Sometimes
both the mind and body are affected. some
times the body only. and often the complaint
is confined to single member. In one class
of cases the motive nerves alone are disor-
dered. as in ST. Vitus' Dance; in another class
the nerves of sensation only are attacked, as
in neuralgia. tic doulourenx, toothache. ear
ache. DC. Pain is, in fact, the immediate
consequence Of disturbed condition of the
nervous system; for only through the deli
cate fibers of which it is composed can pain
be experienced. Tremors hysteria; and
most of the unpleasant feelings usually in
cluded under the head of nervousness, arise
from the weakness of these sensitive threads
which pervade every part of the animal
structure and have their source in the foun-
tain head of all sensation-the brain. The

Constitutional Weakness.

1t is a great thing to have sound and Wig
orous constitution. There is nothing that
money eau buy comparable in value to this
best gift of nature. The difference between
the individual who has it and the uniortu-
nate who has il not, is just the difference be-
tween the man who goes into the battle
clothed in defensive armor and one who has
nothing to oppose to sword and bullet but
his naked breast. "The pestlence that
walketh in darkness the sickness that de-
stroyeth at MONDAY" while it lays low the
man of leble Stamina. is often conquered by
the native strength ofwhat is called an Iron
constitut on.
Heaven, however, has not endowed even
moiety of mankind with this inestimable
blessing, and therefore it behooves those who
have it not, to resort to those most efficient
means Of constitutional invigoraton which
science can supply. There is good warrant

we'll as difficult business than it was a few
years ago. each bottle Of the genuine article
being authenticated by the official indorse-
ment of the United States Revenue Depart
ment in the form of stamp engraved on
steel, to counterfeit which is a felony. See.
therefore, that this Government Countersign,
as we'll as the engraved label and note of
band Of the proprietors, is attached to the
bottle. The label is embellished With su-
perb representation Of St. George on horse
back, in the act of spearlng the Dragon,
and underneath is shield or escutcheon,
bearing warning inscription. which coun-
terfeters are advised to read before they
encounter the penalty which is set forth.
Below this again is Hostetter Il Smiths note
of hand, the signature to which it would be
rather serious business to forge. If the
public will look to these verifcations of the
genuineness of the article before they pur-
chase, they cannot be deceived. The propri-
etary label and Government stamp are both
executed on steel in the most elaborate style
of bank-note engraving, and are probably the
most expensive specimen of graphic art ever
attached to any medical preparation.
