1t has been reported that Gen. Sher.
man is about to resign, because his pay
has been reduced to only third more
than that ofhis official superior, the Sec
retary of War. We do not believe it.
The late war came to the Country as q
great overshadowing calamity. 1t did
not so come to Gen. Sherman. 1t found
him poor, obscure, supporting his fam
lily with difficulty and on meager sal
ary. tleft him with a:brilliant posi-
tion, and a salary treble that of the
Chief Justice ofthe United States. We
do not believe that he will abandon
his place because his pay is cut down
TO a trife less than double the Chief
Justices salary. Gen. Sherman does
not mean to refuse bearing his share of
the burdens the war has imposed any
more than he did during the war. Those

SPECIAL NOTICES.
The Living Machine.

Injure the handspring of q watch and every
portion of the works becomes disordered. The
human stomach is to the human system what
that elastic piece of metal is to a chronometer.
1t influences the action of the other organs, and
controls, to certain extent, the whole living
machine. The comparison may be carried fur
ther: for as the weakness of other imperfections
Of the main spring is indicated on the face of the
time-piece, so also is the weakness or other dis
order of the stomach betrayed on the face of the
invalid. The complexion is sallow or faded, the
eyes are deficient in lustre and intelligence, and
there is worn, anxious expression in the whole
countenance which tell as plainly as written
words could do, that the great nouriShing organ
whose Office it is to minister to the wants of the
body, and to sustain and renew all its parts, Is
not performing its duty. 1t requires renovating
and regulating, and to accomplish this end Hos
letters Stomach Bitters may be truly said to be
the one thing needJul. The broken main spring
of q watch may be replaced by new one, but
the stomach can only be repaired and strength
ened and this is one of the objects of the famous
vegetable restorative which for eighteen years
has been waging successful contest with dys.
pepsia in all climates. AS specific for indiges-
ton it stands alone. When the resources Of the

well as upon the stomach and bowels, the Bit

In this table We give the number which died of
consumption in each township.

Total ..........SS 4j 7 % lA
If these statistics are at all reliable, they con-
vey ono item of information which is very grat-
flying. In the township Of Lick, including the
town Of jackson, only seven persons died during
the year 1869. According to the usual estimates
based upon the vote of the township, the pop
ulation must be over 1000. Only seven deaths in
population of 1000, in one year, shows con-
dltion of health that is highly gratifying. We
have always regarded Jackson as one of the most
healthey localities in the United States; but we
we were hardly prepared for such showing as
the above. 1t is one of the most remarkably
healthy places for children which we ever saw.
II mothers would pay due regard to the manner
ofclothing their children; lfthey would let health
and comfort, and not fashion govern them in
this matter but few mothers in this place would
laxeto suffer that most terrible of all sorrows to
the mothers heart, the untimely death Of their
little ones
