The Stomach is the great centre which influences

bilitated by excesses-indigesten offensive breath

Allied to the brain, it is the source of head
aches, mental depression, nervous complaints and
unrefreshing sleep. The Liver becomes effected
and generates bilious disorders, pains in the side

rahea and Dysentry. The principal action of

SNAKE BITTEN.-Hiram Callahan,
of Nc Henry township, Lycoming
county, was bitten by a rattlesnake
under rather peculiar circumstances.
He was moving in a field when the
snake came in contract with the
scythe and was cut in two. They
went on round the field until they
came back to the same point, when
they went TO move the snake out of
the way. One of the men attempted
to lift It with the point of the scythe,
but failing to do so, Hiram took hold
of the piece on which the head was
attached, intending to Jerk it away,
but as quick as lightning the head
came back and the faags fastened in
bis thumb so firmly that he could
not pull it of, except by bringing the
piece with it. They then put n
bandage around the thumb in order
to prevent the flow Of the poison to
the heart But in short time the
swelling caused the band TO burst.
They then tied it around his arm and
again il burst. As soon as it could
be procured whiskey was admins Or
ed, but it was thought he would not
live.

.'Kioking against the Prioks.y

The madmen in Congress expect 10
abolish by act Of Congress, negro in
feriority and negro insubordination.
They can no more be abolished by
act of Congress than the eternal laws
of gravitation can. The positive and
and negative poles of a battery can
Just as eaily be abolished as the natu-
raj relation between positive and neg
ative races of men. 1t is something
that can no more be reached by act
Of Congress than the color of the ne
gro's skin can be changed by legisla-
tioD. Brains can neither be legislated
out of the white ruvv or into tho ne
gro race. 1t is God who hath made
these races TO differ, and the hand of
man will seek in vain TO make them
alike. The brute force of despotism
may Tor the moment throw these ra-
ces upon political level, but they
can no more remain there than water
can remain fixed either above or be-
low its level. The political equality
of the two races implies nothing less
than the wiping out of the white
mans civilization. And that can be
done only by the everlasting destruc-
tion Of the superior race through the
amalgamation of its blood with that
Of the negro's, as in Mexico and Cen
tral America. Wherevera a large pop
ulation Of negroes exist 10 connection
with the white race they must be Ia
ken care of by the superior race
must be directed, controlled, and com
PEELED to labor, or they must be sups
ported by tax upon white laborers.
Twist and turn the matter as you will,
there is no other side TO this question.
Before the so-called emancipation of
the Southern negroes their enforced
labor was a source of vast revenue TO
our country, while at the same time
it employed, directly or indirectly, a
large share of the capital and industry
of the North. But now, since the glo-
riouS emancipation, instead Of being a
source of revenue, they are an almost
incompatible expense to The country,
and instead of creating basis for the
superior skill of white Industry, they
cost the white laborers several hun.
dred million Of dollars year in taxes.
Results which prove that the negro is
not to be benefited by any circumstan-
ces which emancipate him from the
perfect control of the white race 1t
is as cruel TO turn him out upon his
own resources as it is to drive the
child from the door of its parents, and
force it out in the world TO shift for
itself at the tender age of ten years.
The attempt to bestow upon him a
political brotherhood with the white
race is like building a vast tmple up
on no other foundation than the shif-
ting sand. 1t cannot stand. Moth
ing but perpetual tumblng and crum-
ling can come of such an unwise
undertaking. What a mad dream
of thinking to base political equality
upon foundations of natural and eter-
nal inequality. But that is ihe dream
of fanatical politicians No scientific
naturalist, no profound student of his
tory, no man claiming any acquain-
tance with the natural history of the
human races ever in lulges in such a
crazy dream.-Ph PHILADELPHIA Herald.

Major General Hancock:
] deem it proper to direct your at.
tention TO statements mad by the
Radical press TO the effect that you
are greatly dissatisfied with the re-
suits Of the National Democratic Con
vention. The object of che statement
is TO create an impression that you do
not acquiesce in the Judgment of the
Convention. That your friends do
not, and in consequence Seymour and
Blair wiif-not- have their cordial SUP
port. ! wish you to know, General,
that / have taken the liberty to pro.
nounco these statements false, and to
assure those who have spoken with
me on the subject, that nothing could
cause you more regret than TO find

has been nominated than they would
have been had your own name stood
