is debarred by circumstances from unrestricted
access to this invisible, but powerful stmulant,
needs medicinal invigorant of some kind. Tho

gagged in indoor employments, especially in
crowded factories where even with the best posi-
/ Differentiation the atmosphere is always in some
degree polluted, this saluhrious vegetable tonic
is peculiarly adapted. The nature of the ingre-
dients is no mystery. It consists of an absolute
y pure diffusive stimulant, tinctured-or rather
surcharged-with the fluid extracts of sanatous
roots and banks and herbs. The pharmacopeia
has its tinctures but what are they? The juice of
only single root or bark or plant is present in
each. Not one Of them combines the three prop
critics Of tonic, an Alternative, and aperient. Ali
these elements are blended in the Btters; nor are
these the sum of its medicinal recommendations

WASHINGTON, April IL, 1870.
-Messrs. II. K. Ellyson and George. Chohoon:
Gentlemen-l have your note of yesterday.
| have never doubted that the decision of the
controversy relating TO the mayoralty of Rich
mond properly belongs TO the State courts of
Virginia. c Yar
But since it had been brought into the Cir
cult Court of the United States, and tempo
rary injunction had been granted against one of
the claimants by the district judge holding that
court, performed plain duty in taking cog
nizance of it upon a motion to dissolve the in
junction thus granted Finding. however, that
the argument upon that motion would consume
more time than | could spare at present from
my duties here as Chief Justice, | suggested
and sanctioned the arrangement of counsel to
postpone the hearing of the motion till the ad-
journment of the Supreme Court would permit
my attendance at Richmond on the 3rd of
May.
am glad to hear that this arrangement is
superseded by your mutual consent with the
sanction of the counsel who concurred in what
was done here,) to bring the controversy at
once before the Court of Appeals. Every good
citizen must approve of this patriotic action;
and no one will rejoice more heartily in the
complete re-establishment Of order and har-
moDy in your good city than shall. -

to this conclusion after an interview between
ourselves, and without consulting our counsel.
We mean no disrespect to you in proposing
this course, and but for the delay would be en-

it is extremely doubtful whether either Of these
journals would have dissoyered, in so brief a
