A young lady OF Mount Pleasant was sore

and medicine failed to help her. She had no
rest. Thin, careworn and unhappy, she
looked the picture OF misery: At last she
concluded to try Brandreth's Pills. In one

Col. STOKES, one of the Republican
candidates for Governor OF Tennessee,
seems to have been driven by the ne
cessilies of the canvass to take a posi-
ton OF comparative liberality on the
question OF rebel acknowledgements. In
the discussion at Knoxville, Monday,
he declared himself in favor of II Con-
stituiional Convention and an amend
ment, requiring for each two-thirds
vote OF the Legislature-the enfranchis-
ing to begin by January next If posi-
BILE, but be completed gradually, as the
DISTINGUISHED showed themselves wOr-
thy. Thus 1t will be seen that both
wings OF the party in Tennessee are
committed to the acknowledgements of
the rebels. Its only question of how
fast to proceed with it. The fact that
Gov. Brownlow has declared for Senter

Constitution Tin about two years) iudi-
Gates that that will be the winning side.

THE French Republicans in New
York held a meeting Saturday, at
which 1t was resolved to take advan-
tage of the reported disturbance in
Paris, to tender anew to the friends
of Freedom In France, the sympAthies
not only of their compatriots on this
side OF the Atlantic, but the well wish
es also of the American people. With
that view a public demonstration has
been determined upon in Union Square,
in the course of the ensuing week. Reso-
lutions were also adopted severely de-
nouncing the 'Imperialist' newspaper,
which has recently been started in that
city to advocate an empire, instead of
q republic, for America. Nothing
would so much crafty all friends of
liberty in this country as to see the
power of the imperial usurper of France
broken. The result of the recent cleo
ton there, and the character OF the dis
turbances in Paris, show that he Is far
from secure on his perch. Speed the
day when the French Republicans
shall tumble him from the throne he
attained twenty years ago by perjury
and murder.

LETTER FROM ARKANsAs.-We print
this morning an interesting letter from
Thomas Sweeney, ESD, of this city,
concerning the somewhat famous Hot
Springs, where he is temporarily So
Journing. 1t will be found readable by
all, and may prove OF value to some
needing the curative virtues of these
waters. We are glad to hear from Mr..
Sweeney's friends that his own health
is improving under the hot wafer treat
ment. Ne should judge that drinking
such large quantities of water hot
enough to boil an egg would either kill
or cure an ordinary mortal in a very
short time. However these waters are
reputed TO possess magical virtues, and
marvellous cures are reported. The
disease is boiled out, doubtless. sOme-
what az dirt is from soiled linen.
