Preparation of Compound Ex-

gin. Cubebs extracted by displacement with
spirits obtained from Juniper Berries; very Int.
tie sugar is used, and small! proportion OF
spirit It's more pa!slab!e than any now IN
use.
Buchu, as prepared by Druggists, is Of dark
color. /, is plant that emits It's fragrance;
the action OF fame destroys this (lS active
principle leaving da-k and gIotnous de &C.
ton Mine is The color OF ingredients The
Buchu in my preparation PredomInates; the
smallest quantity Of the other ingredients are
added, TO prevent fermentation; upon inspec-
ton, it will be found not TO be Tinclure, as
made in Pharmac1 2oea, nor is tia Syrup-and
therefore can be used in cases where fever or
Inflammation EXIT. In this, you have the
knowledge of the ingredients and the mode Of
preparation.
Hoping that you will favor it with trial, ard
that upon inspection it will meet with your ap-
p.o5atIoA.

We fear that the prospect Of the re-clec
ton Of Gov. Stearns, Of New Hampshire. b,
the people, is almost hopeless Certainly the
Republicans have not in many years hac
such an uphill iob before them There
are four State tickets in the feld-5he Re
publican. Democratic, Temperance and La
Dor Reform. These side parties. if not organ
lied expressly in the interest OF the Demo
crats, can hardly fail to detach votes enough
from the Republican ticket to absorb the
customary Republican majority. The Demo
crafts are very sweet on the workingmen and
evidently expect to entice the Labor Reform
organization bodily into their columns. The
Temperance votes viii be mainly detached
from the Republican party. How tenn
perance men can see it to be their duty 70
help hand over the State to a party which
has always opposed prohibitory legislation
seems strange enough. That they can be
honest in such a course, is hard to believe.
1t is not unlikely that the result of all viii be
the throwing of the election into the Legisla-
ture. in which we trust the Republicans will
still maintain their ascendancy. We know that
thew are working hard to this end, and if
they fail in the general election, we have
strong bopes that Governor Stearns viii still
be returned by the General Assembly
