At the supper of the Alumni, at Washing
ton College, Lexington, Va, toasts were drunk
in honor of the dead heroes who fought on the
Confederate side during the late war, and Gen.
Lee, Gen Wade Hampton, Gen. Walker, COL
Withers, and other ex officers and soldiers OF
the former Confederate army, were present, and
some Of them made speeches, referring in feel
ing terms to their old associates in arms. This
has given great offence to the truly loil. -
The toast to the Lost Cause" seems to be
considered particularly Objectionable But sure
ly to utter a sigh Of regret over lost object is
not such monstrous sin, we should think

The life of the flesh is pure blood. Upon
this theory alone the inventor of the

free from. disease. The Pale and shrunken
Forms, Yellow Faces, Weak Stomachs,
Diseased Livers, Crippled iRheumatics,
Nervous Hypochondriaes, Dyspeptic Vic
tims of Headache, so common in this
country, is owing entirely to the humofs
of the blood. Very many other diseases
may be traced to bad blood, Scrofula or
Kings Evil, Erysipelas, Exauthema or
Elevure, Rash or Eruption on females,
Blotches, letter, Goitre or SwelIed Neck,
Syphilis and Syphilitic Sores, Strumous

out purifying the blood. Now az to the
remedy, There is no other blood purifier
that Will accomplish such positive and ex-
traordinary cures as Heinitsh's Queen's'
Delight. You may take barrel of extract
i'arsaparilla, and still you will not be
cured; and, as proof Of it, look around
and You will observe the country, through
out its length and breadth, is flooded with
compound Sarsaparillas, extracts and
syrups, claiming to be blood purifiers, and
yet we see to-day more evidence OF i'm
purity of the blood than, ever. Why is
this? Simply because these. extracts and
Sarsaparillae are worthless medicines.
Ask for Heinitsh's Queens Delight. This
is not the Extract of Stellingia or Queens
Delight, nor is it Compound Syrup OF
Queens Delight, or Sarsaparilla and
Queens Delight, but simply Heinitsh's
Queens Delight is the trade mark. Ask

The Bristol Ne,cs says that, on
Friday morning last, q negro watch
man on the Virginia and Tennessee
Railroad was found on the track,
about half mile East of Abingdon,
insensible, and with a deep cut in
his head. He was taken up and
cared for, when he revived sufficient
ly to state that he had been sent
over the road by Mr.. Gillespie, the
section master between Emory and
Abingdon, and, when in about half
a mile of the latter place, he was
suddenly attacked by two negro men,
who took his hammer from him and
struck him in the head. They
thought they had killed him, and
placed his head upon the track, SO
that the Western bound train would
run over him; but before the train
arrived, he had been able to crawl
away, and thus saved his life. The
perpetrators of the deed are unknown.

THE WEEKLY GLEANER-Devoted to
the rehabilitation of the South in it's former
prosperity-is offered to subscribers at the
low rate of $3.50 for six months.
The annals Of the American Republic
show no political campaign comparable in
the magnitude of it's issues and the mo-
nervousness Of it's results to that for the
Presidency, now pending. Indeed, the
very life OF free government is on trial,
and it will be sad commentary on the
capacity of the people for the exercise Of
that high trust if they, the jurors who are
to try the issue, pronounce verdict of
self-condemnation. II the South has any
hope it is in the success of the Democratic
party in the coming Presidential election;
and every citizen is vitality interested in
the progress of the battle, and cannot
afford to be without sound and reliable
newspaper.
AS an organ, not only of sound Demo-
cratic principles, but as vehicle of ge-
neral news, the CLEANER is confidently
commended to Southern support. A large
eight-page paper, of forty eight columns,
filled with the contributions of able cor
respondents, the daily wealth of tele-
graphic communication and readable edi-
torials. Especially will it be valuable as
an organ to disabuse the Northern mind
of the falsehoods in relation to Southern
thought and actions, with which it is the
industrious vocation of certain parties to
poison the springs of Northern feeling on
Southern subjects. In this view of the
matter, no more valuable aid to the true
reconstruction of the country and restora-
tion OF just sentiment at the North toward
the South can be rendered than by sub
scribing to the WEEKLY CLEANER and
sendjng it to acquaintances and friends in
the Northern States.
We ask the aid of such Of our political
comrades as ehall see this prospectus, in
the distribution of the paper; especially
during the progress of the impending
campaign.
The WEEKLY CLEANER is published
every Wednesday morning, and mailed to
single subscribers at $500 per anum; Six
Months, s1.50; Three Months, 75c.; Single
Copies, 10c. Sample copies will be sent
on receipt Of address. Money for sub
scription should be sent in drafts or post
Office orders, but may be sent in regis
tered letter.
Write your address, post Office, County
and State, plainly.
