KosKoo.-The Norfolk Daily Journal, of
December II, 1869, says:
This medicine is rapidly gainiug conf
dence OF the people, and the numerous testi-
monials Of it's virtues, given by practitioners of
reliable remedy for 1mpun1TY OF THE BLOOD,
LIVER DISEASE, &C."
The last Medical Journal contains an arti-
Gle from Prof: Il. 8. Newton, NJ. D., President
speaks in high terms OF its curative proper
ties, and gives special recommendation Of
Koskoo to the practitioners Of medicine.
This is, we believe, the first instance where
such medicines have been officially endorsed
by tho Faculty Of any Of the Medical Colleges.
and reflects great credit upon the skill of DR..
Lawrence, its compounder, and also puts
"koskoo' in the VAN OF all other medicines
of the present day. FIG

CONDITION AND PRosPEor OF THE SOUTH.
The Mobile Register says that it is mar
velous how the South has risen in five
years from what was apparently complete
prostration to great prosperity, and to
promise far greater. Southern credit
has been re-established on firm basis,
aud advances are made with confidence
equal to anything that preceded the dark
days OF 1861. Cotton has mounted his
throne and is again "kipg." He was q
crownless monarch FIVE years ago, and
now, we are told, his last years crop was
2,7OO,OO0 commercial bales, or 5000, 900
bales of 400 lbs. each, in value equal to
$500, ,O00,00 Late dispatches from Cal
cutta announce that the Earl of Mayo,
Govcrnor-Generalo Of India, is making o
tour of the cotton-growing districts of
that country, urging upon the people the
necessity of the increased cultivation of
cotton In order to compete successfully
with the United States. England has
long been engaged in such efforts, but
has no better prospect of success now
than before.
The Mobile Register tells MS, also, that
Virginia, in 1869. sold 100, 600 tons of
her products, while her mines of iron,
coal. lead, copper and gypsum "are now
worked more satisfactorily than ever be-
fore;" that South Carolina paid an in
ternal revenue tax of $2,5OO,OOO, and q
State tax of 1,O0O,OO and greatly re-.
duced her debt; that twenty great rail
roads are constructing in the two Caro-
linas, Georgia and Florida. while Della
ware, Maryland, West Virginia, Mis-
souri,, Arkansas, Texas, Louisiana, Mis-
sissippi aud Alabama have about forty
new lines under way; that the tobacco
crop of last year amounted to 225, ,O0O,-
600 pounds, valued at S37, 900, 900, the
rice crop 5000 tierces, being an increase
Of 10000 over the preceding year, and
the sugar crop $4,000 or $4,000 hogs
heads, against 37,647 for 1867. The
prospect for the coming year is believed
to be even brighter. Immigration is
adding variety and quality of skilled
labor, and if the whites could be en-
franchised rs we'll as the blacks, there
would be general harmony and content.

PORSYTU ON FOREIGN Affairs.

There arc few things which are easier to
write about and more difficult to comprehend
than French politics. There are not great
many in this OF any other country competent
to thread this maze of promise and failure, Of
paradox and catastrophe, of hope and despair;
but one of these select persons is undoubtedly
Mr.. John Forsyth, who is the editor OF The
Mobile Register, a column of whose obserya-
tions upon France" is now before us. Mr..
Forsyth is a man who, during the actual Re-
bellion, was not specially in the public eye ];
nor did we ever hear of his killing and eat
ing anybody during those truculent and hungry
times. But now that Secession can relieve its
mind upon peace basis there is not a
more savage SecessiOnst in all the South than
Editor Forsyth, nor any newspaper man whose
ink is more like blood, or whose pen is more
like sword. This evidently is one of those
gentlemen who are heroes in the abstract, and
do marvellous execution by o cannOnade of the
Kings English. Thus Mr.. Forsyth speaks with
exquisite felicity of "condenSing the essence Of
"events into what Schlegel first had the happy
"thought of naming The Philosophy of His
"'tory." "COndensing" an "essence" gives one
an idea of some fluid of extraordinary power !;
hut this is the first time we have ever heard
that Schlegcl was the first to speak of "The
PHILOSOPHY of History" Bolingbroke long
before Schlegel spoke of History as "Philos-
"ophy teaching by example" but then
his Lordship could never have referred
to History as illustrated by such
writer as Mr.. John FOrsyth-a poor gentle
man who is as feeble in thought as he is
flabby in expression. "The present abject
condition of France has filed the bosom
of Mr.. John with profound sorrow." He in
forms us (n0w the reader is about to be
treated to bit of his style) that the second
Emperor of France has been led to the rock
of destruction on which the first had been
wrecked" and moreover that =" the wind oil
revolution has hurled him back within Its
DESTROYING vortex (Which we call remark
ably good writing of the kind, !. c., OF the
fiercely flabby kind. The Philosopher of Mo-

to construct certain sewer, that fortunate per-

TO find an excellent sewer already built in the
designated locality, but valueless because of its
isolation from the general system. The Tam

pay for doing work already done, and, unless
all signs fail, he will get it, Rejecting the
uncharitable suppositiOn that Mr.. Tweed must
have known of the existence of q sewer when
he made a contract for its construction does
not much mend the matter. Whether stupidity
or corruption doubles our burdens makes little

ceedingly dishonorabe. "ln less than sixty

destroyed the finest army OF civilized times.
They came, it il true, from Prussia expressly
to do that same thing; and if Bonaparte had
DESTROYED them. we are rather curious to know
what would have been Mr. F.s opinion OF the
operation. At present, however, he will not
be comforted. Ii is such blasting ana burn

GERMAN UNITY ATTAINED.

1t was apparent, from that sublime moment
in which the Southern allies of Prussia dis
played an equal earnestness and enthusi-
asm for the defense of the Fatherland
that the war with France, whether
success OF failure for the German arms,
was TO result in the full attainment of
the perfect unity of Germany. If their armies
had failed, the Union would have been neces-
sary for mutual defense and security. AS the
armies have won, the Union will be formed
that the German nation may the better hold
the proud position it has taken!as the dominant
power OF Europe. The Confederation has
served to suggest what the perfected Union
may accomplish.
That long deferred hope, that passionate de-
sire OF the German nation, is already virtually
attained and the accomplishment of German
unity, 1t is now declared, will be proclaimed
in short time, doubtless simultaneously with
the eliminating triumph at Paris or the de-
claratiOn of peace with France Berlin dis
patches repeat in positive terms the rumor
before circulated that a constitution for the
proposed Union is in preparation, and that
Herr Delbriick, Acting Chancellor of the Con-
federation, is arranging the formalities for
proclaiming King William of Prussia the En-
peror of Germany. Because We belieYe

We are favored with the French plan of
campaign for the armies forming on the Loire
and at Lyons The new levies are to wait
there until the outer works of Paris are taken
and the bombardment of the city has begun,
when the army will move north and attack
the PTussians in the rear. This would be an
excellent plan if the Prussans could be in
duced to remain quiet at Paris long enough
to enable the French to form and drill new
army, or if they would refrain from
breaking up the Southern camps in their
incipient state. Evidently it is not
the intention of the Prussans to give
the Southern departments time or rest. A
movement toward and south of Orleans has
already thrown Tours into state of excite
ment, and the troops and Government are said
to be flying from that city. The extent of this
southern movement cannot now be surmised,
but it is not improbable that the Prussians
intend to keep large column of cavalry and
light infantry operating against the open
cities and the camps forming in that direction.
A like movement, northwest from Paris, also
reported this morning, may yet develop into a
serious demonstration against Rouen and the
towns of the Northern and Western depart

10 RESLNESS MEN.

The circulation of THE DAILY TRIBUNE hav-
ing been increased about fifty per cent within
the last two months the prices of advertise
ments will, on and after the oath inst, be as
follows:
Ordinary advertisements, classified under ap
propriate heads, 30 cents per line each inser-
tion.
Loaded and Displayed Advertisements charged
solid space.
Special Notices-Fifth page-5O cents per line,
each insertion.
Advertisements on Eighth page are charged
40 cents per line, each insertion.

Fancy Type and Cuts are charged double rates
for space occupied.
About ten words average a line, after the
first line, which usually contains only four or
five words.
Deaths and Marriages are charged 81.
The value of advertising in a journal depends
somewhat on the number of its readers, but
stil more on their average character One
might have vast circulation mainly among
those whom business men would find little
profit in addressing. THE TRIBUNE is not
merely bought and read by more persons than
almost any other American jOurnal-it circu-
Iates in every State and in nearly every town
ship throughout the Union, and its patrons are
educators, merchants, professional men, master
workers, and leaders in almost every arena of
inspiring and hopeful human endeavOr. If it
were proper to publish list of them, it would
appear that no other journal does or ever did
command the patronage of so large proper
tion of the foremost thinkers and workers of
jts time. For this reason, it affords men IN
business a means of reaching those whose
attention they would gladly attract such as is
not found elsewhere while its wide columns,
clearly and fairly printed, invite the regard of
intelligent readers. THE TRIBUNE believes in
low prices, but rates should compare with the
work done and facilities offered, and, believing
that our new rates are much lower than those
of any other daily newspaper considering the
extent and character of circulation, we do not
doubt that our customers will be ready and
willing 10 pay them.

government, the most enlightened race and
