RECONSTRUCT AND STATE
CREDIT,

CHEDAEs
1t may be that some Of our bondholders
in New York are insisting upon a recon-
struction of the State, under the impress
sion that Military Governor may en-
force the payment of the interest on orr
State debt How that may be we cannot
say. But the military viii not in all
human probability remain in possession of
the State until the maturity of the bonds.
When that time arrives it may be found
that present expressions have led to re-
pudiation. The Radical frauds and cor
ruption in the issuance of our new bonds
have created very strong feeling in the
State against those bonds, and that
feeling is being daily increased by the
continued ISLANDERS which are uttered
against the State and by the continued
threats of reconstruction.

serving extreme action, and threatened a
minority report. Finally compromise
was effected, and the majority report
win be presented by Gen. Slocum, and
will recommend censure onlY.n

DISEASES OF THE BLOOD.

"The life Of the flesh is in the Blood" is a
Scriptural maxim that science prsves to be true.
The people talk Of bad blood, as the cause of many
diseases, and like many popular opinions this OF
bad blood is founded in truth.
The symptoms of bad blood are usually quite
platn-bad Digestion causes imperfect nutrition,
and consequently the circulation is feeble the soft
tissues lose their tone and elasticity, and the
tongue becomes pale, broad, and frequently Gov
cred with pasty, white coat. This condition soon
shows itself in rOgesS of the skin, then in ERUP-
TIVE and LUCRATIVE diseases, and when long con-
tinued results in serious LESSONS Of the Brain Iiv-
er, Lungs, or urinary apparatus. Much, very
much, suffering is caused by impure blood. 1t is
estimated by some that one-hfth Of the human
family are affected with scrofula in some form
When the blood is pure, you are not so liable to
any disease. Many impurities of the Blood arise
from impure diseases of large cities. Eradicate
every impurity from the fountain of life, and good
spirits, fair skin and vital strength will return to
you.

Meets with GREAT SUCCESS in the CURE Of

Almost nlne-tenths of our people suffer from
nervous exhaustion, and are, therefore, liable to
its concomitant evils of mental depression, con-
fused ideas, softening of the BRAIN insanity, and
complete breaking down of the general health.
Thousands are suffering to-day with broken-down
nervous systems, and, unfortunately, tobacco,
alcohol, late hours, over-wOrS (mental and physi-
CALI are causing diseases of the nervous system to
increase at a fearful ratio.
The SYMPTOMS to which diseases Of the nervous
system give rise, may be stated as follows: A
dull, heavy feeling in the head sometimes more or
less severe pain or headache Periodical Headache,
Dizziness, Noises or Ringing in the Head; COnfu-
sion of Ideas; Temporary Loss of Memory; De-
lection of Spirits; Starting during sleep; Bad
Dreams; Hesitation in Answering Questions
Dizziness of Hearing; Twitching of the Face an d
Arms, ETC. which, if not promptly treated, lead to
Paralysis, Delirium, Insanity, ImpOtency, Apo
plexy, etc etc.

DISEASES OF THE KIDNEYS AND BLADDER

DISEASES OF THE KIDNEYS AND BLADDER
Persons unacquainted with the structure and
functions of the Kidneys cannot estimate the iBs-
pOrtGnce Of their healthy action.
Regular and sufficient action of the Kidneys is
as important, nay, even more so, than regularity
of the bowels. The Kidneys remove from the
Blood those effete matters which, if permitted to
remain, would speedily destroy life. total sus-
pension of the urinary discharges viii occasion
death from thirty-six to fOrty-eight hours.
When the Urine is voided in small quantities at
the time, when there is disposition to Urinate
more frequently than natural or when the Urine
is high colored or scalding, with weakness in the
small of the back, it should not be trified with
delayed, but KoskOo should be taken at once to
remedy the difficulty, before lesion of the organs
takes place. Most Of the diseases of the Bladder
originate from those of the Kidneys, the Urine
being imperfectly secreted in the Kidneys, prove
irritating TO the Bladder and Urinary passages.
When we recOllect that medicine never reaches the
Kidneys except through the general circulation of
the Blood, we see how necessary it is to keep the
Fountain of Life Pure.

DEAR COURIER DIR. Richie of
Abba, was here yesterday in behalf
of Governor Stone, trying to preju.
dice leading republicans against Mr..
Loughriage. He was acting as mail
boy for the Pella Blade. a newspaper
that we never had the pleasure Of
seeing before. Its bitter attack on
Mr.. Loughridgo proves it to BE- too
much of a growing, rambling blade"
to need refutation. He called on DR.
Clutch and requested him to use his
influence with his acquaintauces in
Wapello County in favor Of Stone
and against loughridge. The Doc.
tor told him he would dc no such
thing.
iIo then made what he aimed to
DO flank movement on B. f. Pratt,
the Post Mastcr Of this place, but B.
F. not having the fear Of the Lord
before his eyes, refused to be con-
WINGED of the errors of his ways, and
the Doctor waxing eloquent, told
him squarely that if he did not use
his influence for Stone it would
not be well for him when Stone shol'd
take his seat. But after duly con.
sidering the frail tenure of this
earthly tabernacle known Of men o.

thereunto appertaining with the high
standing of q U. s. Officer morally,
civilly, &c. 1 regret to say that
B. +, did there and then tell the
aforesaid Doctor that he would see
him id first. Docs indignation is
supposed to have reached 40 in the
shade, and hc got up and busted.
