vator and lnvigorator of the System, carrying
off all poisonous matter, and restoring the
blood to healthy condition. No person can
take these Bitters according to directions, and
remain long unwell.

provided the bones are not destroyed by min
eral poisons or other means, and the vital or
gans wasted beyond the point of repair.
For lnHammatory and chronic Rheumatism,
and Gout, Dyspepsia or Indigestion Bilious,
Rcmittent. and Intermittent Fevers, Diseases
of the Blood, Liver, Kidneys and Bladder,
these Bitters have been most successful. Such
Diseases are caused by Initiated Blood, which
is generally produced by arrangement of the
Digestive Organs.
Cleanse the Initiated Blood whenever you
find its impurities bursting through the SIX in
Pimples, Eruptions or Sores, cleanse it when
you find it obstructed and sluggish in the veins:
cleanse it when it is foul. and your feelings will
tell you when. Keep the blood pure and the
health of the system will follow.
PIN, TAPE, and other Worms, lurking in
the system of so many thousands, are effectual-
ly destroyed and removed.
In Bilious, Rcmittent, and Intermittent Fe-
veIs, the Bitters have no equal. For full di-

pressed by the administration. It cannot be
acquired by the Butler fraud of Congressional
resolution, thus ignoring the Senate as part of
the treaty-making power, without direct issue
between the President and nearly every Senator
who is recognized by the country as states
man. Can the administration afford such an
issue? The spectators and jobbers of Congress
will say that it can; but the statesmen, the in
dependent press, and the people will answer
that such an issue involves utter destruction to
Republicanism.
Colonel Forney has been placed in most
unpleasant position by this San Domingo war.
He was required to attack Sumner and his sup
portels 10 the Chronicle. This was the last
feather on the eamers back. To make such a
war and live on the husks of Washington, while
the administrat on don't trouble itself to pay his
advertising bills too much; and Forney
abdcated at last. Visions of Cabinet portfolios
had previously vanished, and as the war upon old
friendships which was demanded, all for nothing
and find himself, was more than Forney could
bear, he has retired. He has not quarrelled with
Grant, as has been alleged in some quarters,
but he has at last realized what his friends have
long since known, that he who grinds admins
tration organs gain nothing in power, reputation,
or purse. SO Forney goes back to Philadelphia
to make an effort of years to redeem what he
has lOst Dy rev months OF pltlaOle sycOpna1cy
to Cameronism. He would now be independent
if he could, but to attempt it would be like
mockerv, and he must wait patiently and bow
submissvely until some new political regenera-
tion takes place.
The Georgia election has defed all admins
trative efforts, and of course belied all of Came
rons promises. Every facility was afforded to
enable the Republicans to win. Cameron went
down there to perfect the leaders in the trickery
of elections, and returned with positive promise
of victory; but the Democrats have swept the
State, and the last hope of Republicanism in
Georgia is dissipated. Akerman cannot go to
the Senate, and at present no immediate Cabi-
net changes are contemplated, but no one can
guess what day may bring forth. Cameron
and Fornev now both advise against any Cabi-
net officer from Pennsylvania, because they. have
given up the hope of controlling it, and as they
are the only advisers the President has from
your State, they will doubtless prevail for the
present. After the holidays there may be q
new deal, but improvement in the present con-
dition of political affairs is not probable.
