AYERS AMERICAN ALMANAC, for 1868, has been
received by the Druggists for delivery gratis, to
all who may call for it. This number contains
proofs to show that some of the stars have exist
ed for sirty millions Of gears. We had not sup.
posed such proof possible, but the Doctor gives
it in shape which seems indisputable. His wit.
ticisms have long made his book acceptable: his
medical advice makes it indispensable to fami.
lies, and now he adds the most startling prob
lens of abstract science to its attractions.
We are badly off for news these days, owing
to the long-continued storm, which seems to have
been general throughout the State. Dec. 2lsi
is the latest Sacramento date received at the
time we go to press.

p@- -"The poor devils Of farmers and
mechanics all through the West and in
some of the Eastern States tell us Bond
holders that We must take greenbacks for
our gold interest Why, don't you see,
what vast difference it makes to usl
Gold is worth 40 in gEenbacks, while
greenbacks are worth but 20 cents in gold
to the dollar. Well not take them.
Well beggar them before we do it.''
Keep cool, Mr.. Bondholders; the Peo-
pie Of this great country have decided
that you are no better than they are, al
though Rump Congress did passsa law
giving you gold for your blood.bought
bonds. They have determined that you
shall receive your gold interest in green
backs, the kind of money they receive
for their wares and produce.

battle of Belmont, when he (Grant) was
so drunk that he fell half dozen times
in going up the levee from the wharf
boat, and the united efforts of Captains
Hillyer and Lagow were insufficient to
keep him on his pins"
In the "Presideutial Talk" between
"Mack" of the Commercial and Presi-
dent Johnson, published under date of
April Sd 1868, we find the the following.
"The President said he was perfectly
willing they should investigate his con-
dition on that trip. The public had been
led to believe that he was intoxicated all
the way, from the time he left Washing
ton till he got back. But let them take
the trouble to find out, and they would
discover that that was great mistake.
"Theyll find out, at any rate, that /
didn't drink half as much as one or two
others, about whose condition nobody
dares to say word"
Il think l can guess the name Of one
Of them," said I. "Didn't he 90 from
Cleveland to Detroit, and wasn't it an
nounced with great flourish of trumpets
that he had left your party in disgust2'
|"Yes," replied the President, che went
to Detroit; but>it wasn't because he was
disgusted with my politics at all. In
fact, he wasn't in "a condition to know
much about politics just then"
:
1t was Grant who went from Cleveland
to Detroit, because he was too drunk tc
accompany the Presidential party. Fur.
lther on in The conversation the President
said:
"Out of all the witnesses examined
about that trip of 1866, there is not one
who proves that I was drunk. But the
people are told it through the press and
politicians.-in the newspapers and on
the stump-and / have never taken the
trouble to deny it. Yet the man to
whom I have just now alluded, has been
in this very room so drunk that he could
not stand straight on his legs. I'd like
to know why I'm abused all the time. fol
what don't do, and why never word is
said about him for what he does do"
There is the evidence of the President
Of the United States to the effect that be
had seen Grant SO drunk in the White
House, "that he couldn't stand straight
on his legs"
| If the editor of the Register is still
unsatisfed that his candidate for Presi-
dent, Grant, is drunkard, and untitled
for any position, we are prepared to fur
nish still further evidence to prove it.

The following conversation took place
mot long since, on the Muskingum be.
tween lady and q correspondent Of thes
Cincinnati Enquirer. The attentive PEI
rusal of the Radicals who are rampant /,
on the temperance question, is invited:
"What paper do you write for, sir2'
"The Cincinnati Enqairer, madam i
answered.
"Law me-" she asked again, "Why'
don't you write for more popular pa.

No, nadan," Iysplied, ayou are mis-

The Visible Admixture Bin.

"lBy the passage of this bill the Dem.
ocratic Legislature Of Ohio have placed
the cap stone upon the column of infamy
which they have been erecting since their
Convention in January last"
The above is from the Athens Messen-
ger, an intensely Radical sheet, whose ed
ltor, in his aalutatory short time since,
said:
"What indeed is Republicanism? II
is term that wants no positive signifca.
tion. 1t is that form of government
which is expressly lodged in the people
1t is the legitimate FAITH of the friends
of equal law and equal rights (political)
for all men"
In other words unqualified Negro equal
ity, 1t was question either to permit
the whole brute creation to vote or stop
the pollution of the ballot.box by Ne.
groes. The latter was wisely adopted,
and the Radicals Immediately commenced
chattering over the loss Of their sweet
scented pets.
From the Meigs County Telegraph comes
another wall, which means, if it means
anything, that the editor is sorry he was
not born Negro, or at least one the hue
Of tanned hog skin:
"The Visible Admixture Bill" as il
has been called, has passed both branches
of the Ohio Legislature, and for pure,
devilish malignancy it exceeds any thing
that ever before came under our notice,
dignifed with the name Of statute"
The Marietta Register mourns the loss
of suffrage to its "Man of 1867" as the
whangdoodle mourns over the loss of it's
first born:
"To disfrauchise voters who have in
them a tinge Of African blood.
"Time enough to speak of these vii
famous measures hereafter"
That last paragraph is exactly what
the helpless people OF the South have
been saying for The last four years. but
still you Jacobin blood hounds continue
to suck their lifes blood.

that the law affected the editor Of the

thousand in all the United Statesi A
million Of mouths short Of food in
country which was groaning with abund-
ance in 1866. q
The armies Of the confederacy surren-
dered in April and May 1866. Since that
time the Radicals have labored to op-
press the laboring class BY excessive tax
alton, in order to enrich themselves, con-
tinue their party in power and confer
equality upon the Negroes. No wonder
the poor throughout the United States
are silently, yet surely sinking into their
graves under the pangs Of hunger ard
starvation. ),
The Wheeling Daily Register, COM
menting on this says:
aIs the proper remedy for all this to
be found in continuing to tax Northern
white labor to support negro idleness in
the South; in keeping standing army Of
80, 600 men, In excess Of tbe peace basis,
as means Of compelling tho whites In
the South to yield their civilization to
semi barbarism? The Radicals say So
