Very little has been said about the late
order from the Treasury Department,
that hereafter the familiar face Of Chief
Justice Chase is to disappear from the
one dollar bills of tho national currency.
we are told that the reason for this
change is the law of Congress forbidding
the likeness of any person now living to
be used upon the face of the greenbacks.
The Cincinnati Enquirer, however, is
probably correct in ascribing this action
to the miserable little feeling of personal
malice which pervadcs tho "great men"
of the present administration, of which
this is only one instance among many.
The absence of Mr.. Chase's face from
the notes will not make their payment
any more certain, we Judge, while the
malice displayed against him gives just
shade of suspicion that it may make re-
pudiation little less odious with his
friends.

THE SCIENCE OF HEALTH AND THE ART
OF HEALINa.-HE1NrrsH CELEBRATED
QUEENS DELIGHT puts every man in pos
session of the means of improving his
own health. Disorders of the Stomach,
Liver and Bowels are very numerous.
The Stomach is the great centre which
influences the health or disease of the
system-al'used, debilitated by excess,
indigestion, offensive breath and physi-
cal prostration are the natural conse-
quences; allied to the brain, it is the
source of headaches, mental depression,
nervous complaints and unrefreshing
sleep. The Liver becomes affected and
generates bilious disorders, pains in the
side, &c. The Bowels sympathize by
costiveness, diarrhna and dysentery.
The great power of the HE1NITsH MEDI-
CINE is on the Stomach. The Liver,
Lungs, Bowels, Kidneys participate in
the recuperative powers and regenerative
operations of this great MEDICINE. To

in which there were engaged fifteen or
twenty persons on each side. A negro
