The New York atlas takes issue with
those journals that assert that prices of
every thing are coming down, because
gold is down. That paper says:
'Gn few articles of food-a very few
indeed, and they not among the staples
there had been a trihing diminution of
cost to the retailer purchaser; but we find
our bread quite as small and as dear as it
has been any time since 1862, and we pay
lust as much for beef as ever we did.
Clothing is somewhat cheaper than it was,
but the difference is not much to the poor
man, who probably does not buy more
than one suit of clothing in twelvemonth.
Rents are held at the old war figures. In
certain limited locations lowing to a
change in the habits of purchasers the
rents of large warehouses and palatial
stores have come down, but the poor
family's room and bedroom are rated at
as high a leasehold value rs they were
last year. 1t may, or it may not be con-
soling to the Iaborer TO read in his favor
lite journal that he is living at a cheaper
rate, and then count his outlay on Satur-
day night and find that he is not ten cents
the richer"

SELLING CaRETSHIPS

The action of the House of Represen-
tatives in Picayune Buffers case is calling
forth the indignant denunciation of a
large number of leading Radical papers.
The following from the Cincinnati Ga
zette of March q is a specimen:
''The action of the House in the case of
r. r. Butler, of Tennessee, quashes all
further investigation into the sale of cadet
appointments, and makes farce of the
action which frightened Whittemore and
Golladay into resigning. An appropriate
finale would be to reinstate these mem
bers. AS it requires two-thirds of the
House to expel a member, it is requisite
that a large proportion should have
clean hands. The test was too
severe in this case. 1t appears
that a considerable number had
dealt in this traffic. Especially was
it weakness of the new Southern mem
bers, who in the poverty of resources
seem to have been peculiarly exposed to
temptation. All these voted on the case
of Butler, and of course with a view to
their own situation. And perhaps many
other members had come to the conclu-
sion that it was only in form that this
disposal of the government patronage diff
fered from the ordinary way of using it
to fee their personal and political adj
herents, and that expulsion was too severe
a penalty for this slight variation of form.
In short, the investigation which has
made so much noise is now played out,
and the virtue of the House has not been
exalted by it."

EFFECT OF THE DECLINE IN
GOLD ON PRICES.

The decline in gold has not had very
perceptible effect in bringing down the
prices of other commodities. The New

record of the comparative prices of staple
dry goods in that city, in January, 1861,
and at the present time:

ELECTION DAY.

Next Saturday is the day of election
for County officers, and for the ratifca-
ton or rejection of the proposed Consti-
tuition. This should be borne in mind.
Officers authorized to hold elections
should bear in mind that there are two
elections which they have =. to superintend
on that day, and they must have two
separate ballot-boxes and two separate
poll books-one for OF against the new
Constitution. The other for county
officers. There must therefore be two
ballot boxes: one for candidates for
County officers, the other for or against
the Constitution. This must be renfem-
bered Those who vote for County Off
GERS are required by the law to have a
certificate of registration, but voters for
or against the Constitution are not requir-
ed to have certificates of registration.
These provisions should be remembered.

THE very nice point of morals that saved
Picayune Butler from expulsion from the
House of Representative was this: he
spent the money paid him for his cadet
ship in aid of the Radical party in Ten
nessee, having reserved noneof it for him
self. This explanation saved him, for his
party refused to expel him. Whittemore
imploringly told his party friends in Con-
gress that he devoted the money paid him
for his cadetship to educational purposes
in his district but there was no grace in
that act in the eyes of Radical Congress
men, and the poor carpet-bagger had TO
walk the plank.

Diseases that progress rapidly to a crisis are no
the only ones TO be dreaded. Canker or dry rot
does not blast tree as suddenly as q stroke of
lightning, but unless arrested it destroys it
tainly; and in like manner chronic debility, al
thoughit does not kin with the swftness Of yellow
feser,is as sureto sap the springs Of life eventually
as any acute disease if not checked by nvgorating
medication. There is something inexpressively
touching in the spectacle of premature decay
IAnguor, pallor. emsciation, depression Of spir-
its, and distsste sor exertion, are its ordinary
symptoms, and they should be promptly met by
tonic treatment. The best invigcrant and exhila-
rant that can be administered in case of this kind
Is Hostester's Stomach Bitters The stimulating
principle OF the preparation rouses the dormant
energies Of the system, and the strengthening and
regulating properties give permanent and health
full impulse to the vital forces thus brought into
play. The falling appetite is re-awakened, the
process of digestion and assimilation is quick
ened, the quality Of the blood is improved, the Sc
cretions become more natural and every organ
that contributes to the nourishment OF the body
undergoes sanitary change. By these means the
repair OF the physical structure is effected and its
health and vlgor restored In no class of diseases
has the benehcent operation Of the Bitters been
more marked and striking than in those character

DISEASES OF THE BLOOD.

"The life of the flesh is the Blood" is
Scriptural maxim that science proves to be true.
The people talk of bad blood, 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
plain.-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 COW
cred with pasty, white coat. This condition soon
shows itself in roWghness of the skim then in ERUP
TIVE and ULCERAIIvE diseases, and when long con-
tinued results in serious LESSONS OF the Brain, Lv
er, Lungs, or urinary apparatus. Much, very
much, suffering is caused by impure blood. II is
estimated by some that one-ffth 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 viii return to

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 int
TOrtance 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 will occasion
death from thirty-six to forty-eight hours.
When the Urine is voided in small quantities at
the time or when there is a disposition to Urinate
more frequently than natural, or when the Urine
is high eolored or scalding, with weakness in the
small of the back, it should not be trifed with or
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 recoIlect 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.

now 70 EHFECT cERrAIN AND PERMANENT CURE
Some occupations OF life prcdIspOsc to Costive

habit Of body, under such circumstances, might
possibly be relieved by changing their sedentAry
cmpIoymCnts for others OF more active kind
but this IL by no means certain. HabItual con
stipation is q very obstinate disorder. All the
ordinary so called remedies invariably aggravAte

tinued use Of str0nk aperIcntS. They fret irri'
tate, and finally almost paralyze the bOwclS-ren'
dering them 20 torpid that enormous doses oil
cathartic medicines have no effect on them. A
mild aperIent, combined with gentle stimnlant,
Is the true remedy; and combination in the
happIest proportion, of these ingredients, is
found in Hostettcr's Stomach BitterS. This a.
nous Stoullchic invigoratcs the whole Intestinal
canal, while quietly removing from iss couvolu-
tons all impcdients to free passage through
them. No mere purgauvc has this double opera
ton. No ordinary stimulant effects the desired
object. Cases Of Constipation abandoned as
hopeless by distinguished medical men have been
cured in few weeks by the BltteFs. To those
who have tried all the medicines Of tho dispcnsa-
~ iu vain, we say Try this irresistible stimuant
and aperient. There Is no sufficient reason why
constipation should DO the consequence of sGdcn'
