 TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF.
 Dodd's Neryine is pure tonic-harmonizes perfectly with the nerve fbre-gives increas- ed energy to the Stomach, Liver, Bowels, and other viscera-and supplies fresh life for the waste that is constantly taking place It operates soothingly-is as pleasant to take as any wine, and with sleep and good digestion l, which it promotes, restores the afflicted to sound health of body and quietness of mind. It contains no opium, mercury or strychnine -so often used for nervous complaints-and is wholly free from any deleterious drug s whatsoever. Tens of thousands are testifylng to its curative powers. See pamphlet ac- companying each bottle
 Some Folks can't sleep Nigsts. s4'S <
 Dodd's Nervine is complete specific for rlesplessness. It soothes the thro bbing mus cle like magic, and tranquilizes the mind. And everybody knows that good sleep is better than all medicines. -s s. ss LADIES IN POOR HEALTH.
 The Nervlne is one of the best remedies ev- CT employed in the cure ot the numerous and troublesome ailments known as female com plaints. See pamphlet. f-'-- '
 LOOK OUT FOR COLDS.
 It is prOyorbial that people treat a cold. and the generally acco -npaEying cough, as something that will cure itself, but neglect is serious and sometimes fatal. The fame of Dodd's Nervine in the relief of colds is estab- lished. Use this standard remedy. and so far abstain from liquids of all kinds as to keep somewhat thirsty for few days, and the worst cold will soon be gone.
 CHILDKEN'S DISEASES.
 For whooping cough Dodd's Nervine is ad- ministered with unexampeled success Moth- CTS, remember this and save your little ones the agony of a most distressing com plaint- It also works admirably in measles bringing out the rash well and leaving the bowels free and healthful. See reccommen- dations in pamphlet For the diseases which afftiet children when teething nothing can furnish more instant relief. Remember, 1t contsa ns Co opium in any form.
 Be carsful achat medicines you lake.
 Alcoholic stimulants are injurious to the nervous health, and ale always followed by depressing reaction. The strength that Dodd's Nervine gives is the strength of health and comes to stag. Beware of the whisky prepa- ratiolG that have laid the foundations of so many habits of intehperance. Whether un. der the name of Bitters or otherwise. let the villsfnou compounds alone. Better die of honest disease than be burnt up by the fires of alcohol. For the ingredients that compose Dodd's Nervine see pamphlet on each bottle. Fer sale hg druggists and Country Stores.

NOTE--The net revenue includes the incomes
from licenses OF butchers; this incongruous ele-
ment Is therefore thrown cut In q separate col
umn.
The above statistics explain themselves To
corroborate the figures we subjoin the following
extracts, from the proceedings OF the present
Board OF Aldermen:
MONDAY, September 9th, 1852
Mr. Stewart submitted the following reso,u-
tom which was agreed to:
ResolreS, That the City Register be, and he Is
hereby, most respectfully authorized and re-
quested 70 furnish this Board, at It's next meet
ing, with q statement Of all the money received
from the several markets Of this city for the lis
cal year ending june 3oth, 1883.
Further, Monday, October Attn, 1883:
"CITY REGISTERS OFFICE, WASHINGTON,
October 9Th, 1s69.-7O tie Board Of Atderm>a-
Gentlemen: In accordance with . resolution
passed by your Board on the 9th Of September,
requesting statement Of the amount OF money
for the fiscal year ending June 3oth, 1852 Il have
the honor 10 state there was received for butch
ers' stalls, vegetable and FISH stands the sum of
s36.7T219. Very respectfully, Sc,
JoBS +. Cook, Register"
Thus it VIII be seen that for the fiscal wear
ending June 80, 1862, all Tia four narkets Of IN.
eitx produced a net revenue Of but s2i ,i2s.sI,
with but si2 ,ss3.5s expenditures. This year, the
necessary expenses on Center market alone are
about $4,000. Less butcher stands (llo) are
taken this year In Center market than there

- Us stands are, ant have been, about

six hundred, and only few pay tide more
than last year. The country people, who for
merry were not taxed, have, according to official
statements, yielded about sToo in sic mouths.
These rigures would seem 10 show pretty con-
clusively that the Corporation will realize quite
Is much per annum (s25,oeo) from the nsw
market as it has ever Melted heretofore from, all
the markets OF the city put together.
We are glad that this markst-house question
Is being fully discussed, and that the Congress
sional committees are disposed to give On ct
tentive hearing to AN the interests concerned.
The bill has been very properly amended by the
Senate committee, and very likely 1t is suscep-
tble Of further amendment But we trust that
the squabble over the question will not result
Is heretofore, in killing OF all improvement OF
the miserable old rookery. IL there should be
any hitch about the passage Of the House bill
we trust that the Corporation bill will be sub
stituted, with due provision that the style Of
building shall be at least as handsome and ap,
propriate for Its commanding position As that
specified In the House bill. It will be intoler
able If the wrsngling over the matter should re-
suit In things remaining " as they were," and
in giving another long lease Of existence to
the present moss-covered sheds. 1--
