TNHIS excellent medicinal compound was first
L prepared by DIR. j. w. POLAND, in 1S47,
and was then employed with great success in
expeng humors from the blood but in 1918 n
medical friend who was quite celebrated physi-
clan, especially in the treatment OF humors, sug-
gested some important improvements which were
adopted, and which has made it $50 the people say)
the very best remedy for all kinds Of humors known
to the faculty"
This preparation is composed entirely of vegeta-
bles, among which are Sarsaparilla Yellow Dock,
Noble Pine, Mandrake and Boodroot
When the originator lived in New Hampshire, at
Goffstown Centre for the space Of thirty or forty
miles around, and in Manchester particularly, the
Humor Doctor was well known and highly valued
for the numerous and wonderful cures which it eff
fected. Though manufactured in large quantities,
the supply was frequently exhausted, and purchas-
ers had to wait for more TO be made. IL that
gion, some very severe cases Of Eryspelas were
treated WITH and they We're cured! Eryspelas
sores, or carbunces, those ugly painful ulcers,
were entirely removed wherever this medicine
was faithfully used. So it was with Scrofula and
Salt-Rheum. The Humor Doctor cured them.
1t is free from any dangerous drugs, is pleasant to
the taste, safe, yet and effective in its action.

FROM PERU.

On the evening Of the 18th of August tho
Democrats Of Peru, pursuant to notice, met at
the City Hall in said city, to organize Demo-
cratic Campaign Club. The City Hall was quite
we'll filled. There were enough Democrats pres
ent on this occasion to have, under proper man
agement, left the hall with al organized club OF
at least seventy-fve members-I think one hun.
dred but as it was the whole time till - o'clk,
was spent in speechifying; and all the speeches
with the exception of short, sensible speech
by Mr.. Armstrong, of Ottawa, which was di.
rect to the point were entirely foreign to the
issues, which the intelligent, thinking taxpayers
of the country wish to hear discussed during
the present campaign. But let the club DO not
discouraged. at is never too late to do good"
The club is organized with proper officers, such
a. president, vice presidents, secretaries, appre-
nr;ats oommittees, &c. This, SO far, is all very
well.--especially is it we'll that they have
treasurer. Now let the committees see to it, that
the name of every Democrat and every conssrva-
tive Republican be attached to the constitution
and bv.laws of the club Then let them see to
Il. that funds in the treasury DO properly ap.
Piled. Upon this question my. opinion is, that
much more of these funds should be expended in
supplying the inquirsrs after truth with good.

mand of regiment in Missouri in the earlier
part in the war, said 81 he was democrat, that
his men were democrats, and if it was the de-
sign of the government to execute the de-
signs of the abolitionists, he pledged his
honor he would carry his sword on the other
side" Washburn simply denies that Grant
ever made any such expression-offe no
proof OF any Sort
Per contra, the editor of the Randolph (Mo.)
Citizen AYERS solemnly that he was present and
heard Grant use such language. He says:
"The declaration was made in Rlngo's
banking house in: Mexico. Col. Grant was then
stationed at Mexico, in command of the 21st
Illinois regiment Of infantry, and the editor
of this paper was present when he uttered the
sentiments attributed to him. The man whs
broke faith with his chief, to bctray him into
the hands of his enemies, would probably
have no scruples about denying this charge,
but whenever Mr.. Grant does deny it over his
own signature, we shall have no more trouble
in proving him deliberate falsifer than had
President johnson when he wrote liar on his
brow, and sealed it with the certificates Of the
members Of his cabinet"
