Gen. Candy has at last issued bis order,
an the heels of Attorney Hoar's, opinion,
in regard to the test oath, which, for some
reason. has been withheld so long. Good
old Virginia, the mother of States &c. /,
but herself no longer State, is to be suf-
1ered to call a meeting of her Legislature
elect, and they will be permitted to ratsfy
the fifteenth amendmsnt to the Federal
Constitution. What mag1anin.ity! But,
go to; why all this barefaced deception
How can her status lie, at the same time,
both that of State and Territory. Suppose
the fifteenth amendment is ratified before
Congress, as per Reconstruction acts
'ratifss the action of the State in the late
election TIE Courts will never be able to-
find authority to sustain Che acts of the
Legislature. That body will be too cir
cumscribed in the sphere Of its action to
have any of the semblsnces of a Legislative
body. Do we grow wiser by experience,
and have our suspicious been aroused by
constant deception then we have RICH t
to mistrust the motive for the convocation
of this Territorial Legislature. It would
be but short time, at most, to await the
action of Congtess upor the .Reconstruc-
tion measures, and then, if We are per-
lnitted to do anything, it will be tc DO it
lawfully and in a sovereign capacity. Yet,
notwithstanding these hypocritical pro-
positions, many of our pot-house po!iti-
cans cry out 'eEureAa';; believing per
manent peace restored in their finding an
Office. Notwithstanding we will not be
represented by the genius Of the country,
generally. yet, we hope for the best, with

nR. GALLUP'S COMPOUND SYRUP OF
IL BRIER ROOT-The most safe and efficac-
ious remedy known for dysentery diarrhea
cholera morbus, cholera infantnm, summer COM
plants, and weak and relaxed bowels of old and
young. Also a sovereign remedy for asatic chol-
era in its fir st stages.
This medicine is the result of much study re-
Election. patient research, and close observation
at the bedside of the sick, combined with an
curate knowledge of the different articles of the
Materia Medica which enter into its composition,
1t has no equal in the rapidity with which it
cures the most obstinate cases, as well as slight
attacks of the above-named distressing ard dan
gerous complaints. 1t is purely vegetable
medy, ard contains no deoterlous or dangerous
substances whatever; the greatest care being
taken in compromising it to obtain an article
which will cure speedily and leave the stomach
and bowels in healthy condition. Being per-
fectly pleasant mild, safe and effectual in its OPP
Grafton, it may be given with equal advantage
10 children or grown persons.
The uniform success which has attended the use
of this medicine its salutary effect, its power to
relieve and speedily cure the diseases above
named, of which under. The ordinary mode of
trea ment many thousands die annually, has in
duced me to offer it to the public with entire
confidence in its efficacy, believing that its gen
eral use among families would deprive summer
complaints and kindred diseases of all their hor-
rors, and physicians would not lose one patient
in five hundred cases, but would, by using this
medicine, perform effectual cures in one-fourth
the time required by the usual method of treat
ment. These are conclusions arrived at from
knowing the results of its use during the last
twenty years in hundreds of cases where other
remedies had proved unavailing, and by the
daily increasing demand for it accompanied with
certificates ofits truly wonderful effects.
Asiatic cholera almost always begins with dar-
rhea--frequently SO slight that the patient is not
aware of any danger This is the time for action,
the time when the diseases may be counteracted.
A few doses of the Brier Syrup stops the diar-
rhea and restores the stomach and bowels to
healthy condition In the more advanced state
of this disease, and in violent cases of cholera
morbus, the vomiting and parging is almost i'm
mediately subdued by the use of the Syrup alone.
