RosADALs.-Tumors, Ulcers or Old Sores are
caused by an impure state Of the Blood
Never attempt to cure an old sore by means Of
ointments: salves &c, alone. Nature often makes
an outlet of this kind as q safety valve'' to
throw off the impurities of the blood. Cleanse
the blood thoroughly first, and the old sore will
get well ITSELF because nature hasno further need
for it, Evidence comes to us from many quar-
ters of effected in cases of this kind, one in
which the ulcer had run on to such an extent,
that the limb was pronounced gangrenous by a
Physician, and the next step would have been a
resort to the..surgeon's knife. Happily, however,
Rosadalis was tried and cure the result.

NASHVILLE COURSE, April Solicitors
UNION AND AMERICAN: 10 the BdllneT of
this morning appears an article under the
head Of "The Coming Races" in which
the following words are used
"One individual whom we approached
the trainer or groom Of Mr.. Leonard's
stable, we believe-gsve us a rather frigid
reception. Although very politely APP
preached and modesIly requested TO give
SOME information about his employers
horses, he replied with crushing curlness,
abruptly turning his back on two seekers
after horse information, who had condo.
scended TO come down TO his level in the
interest of the horse-fancying public. He
may have been frelted over his very re-
sPonsible duties, perhaps, but he might at
least have excused himself like a gentle
man. lie is, no doubt, learned in the
mysteries OF horseAesh, but be ia lament-
ably ignorant of the small aweet courte-
sies of life which, with some men, are
as an instinct, and, perhaps never ina
gined that it was possible or necessary for
man to be thoroughbred as well as
horse"
As l happen TO be "Ghe trainer or
groom" of Mr.. Leonards stable, perhaps |
can furnish a plain, unvarnished state
ment which will bring the trath Of this
matter 10 the surface. When the Banners
terrible pres gang called at the stables, Mr..
LeonarPs horses had Just been Cooled
out" from their work, and | informed the
gentlemen as soon as they were through
looking at the other stables would show
them mine. They did not like the delay
which | thought neces AIRY under the cir
cumstancts, Al d went away evidently in q
bad hnmer. For the past few days / have
been greatly annoyed by "horse sharps"
who visit the stables to see the horses, and
did not know but what this party be-
lOnged to that class, although they repre-
scented themselves as members Ofthe press.
1t may be that my conduct was little
hasty, but let me assure you that il was
through no intentional disrespect TO the
| gentlemen as representatives of the press,
but under no circumstances whatever could
i run the risk of " stripping" the
horses while they were exposed to the
danger of taking cold. to accommodate the
press OF any body else. % the subject Of
"thOrough-breds," have simply TO say
that my father was Virgins gentleman,
and my mother a Tennessee lady. II the
author of the above paragraph can show a
better pedigree than that, then will &C
knowledge this right to question that Of
mine or any other man. In conclusion,
| gentlemen, allow me to say that / shall on
all proper occasions take great pleasure 10
showing the horses in my charge to repre.

JUD0E MeCLAIN.

The McMinnville NeW Era is pleased
with the nomination Of Judge McClain.
In its issue of the Doth ult that paper
says
We are pleased to chronicle that this
worthy gentleman received even the
nomination ut the hands Of the Radical
nominating convention for Supreme
Judge, representing the middle division
Of the State. Our contemporary refused
to publish the proceedings of our bar, in
which Judge McClain was endorsed and
recommended for the position Believe
ing the Judge to be conscientious man,
we were willing to support him for the
position. Not so, however, with some of
our Radical friends We would be glad
to see honest men, like McClain and Til
man, receive all the nominations that are
to be made by the Radical party. Ne
are willing to see such men elected to
pOsition-feeling that they have a re-
spect for law, and an admiration for
truth
