We publish to-day certified copy OF
the act authorizing conventional rate OF
interest. 1t will be seen that according
20 the certified copy the act takes effect
Immediately. Our information at the
time of the passage of The bill, obtained
from both Senators and Representatives,
was that it was specially provided in the
act that It was not to 90 into effect until
the 1st of June. The certified copy,
however, from the Secretary of States
Office is the highest evidence.

GOV. sENTER AND BUTLER

A telegram to the Louisville CONNER
cjaL from Washington stated that it was
said ''that Butler wanted to resign, but
Gov Senter would not accept the resigna-
ton as Butler was Stokes partisan, and
that Butler therefore had Sehofield sur
mOned to get delay"
We learn upon inquiry at the Ex-
ecutive office that there is no foundation
for this statement. Butler has not ten
dered his resignation to the Governor.

BosroN, MASS, Feb. Is, I869-Messrs. P. Davis
4 Son-Gents: The package Of Aliens Lung Bal
sam YOU sent to me to among the afflicted
poor in my city missionary work, has proved very
accountable and useful. 1t has gone into several
families and with remarkable effect in every in
stance.
One woman has been restored from what her
physician pronounced consumption, after several
months sickness with cough, great pain in the
lungs and prostration, that she is able now to
do Homework and assist in the support of her
family and with care and continued use of the
Balsam, she expects entire restoration.
Another person, a young woEan, to whom gave
one bottle, has received great benefit that her
cough, which is of months standing, is getting
better, and she has purchased second bottle, and
has every indication of a speedy cure.
young who was raising blood, and quite
weak and sick, has, by the of two bottles been
much improved, and is able to do little at his
work.
young man to whom recommended q trial Of
it, who has had bad cough and much pain in his
lungs for months past, and unable to get rest or
Sleep has commenced taking it, and is using
the fourth bottle with great benefit, He said to me-
on recent visit he would not do without it, He is
hoping and reasonably, it seems to me, to be able
to resume his work again.

DISEASES OF THE KIDNEYS AND BLADDER
Persons unacquainted with the structure and
functions of the Kidneys cannot estimate the I'M
DoTtance of their healthy action
Regular and sufficient action Of the Kidneys Is
as important, nay, even more so, than regularity
of the bowels. The Kidneys remove from the
Blood those effete matters which, if permitted to
remain, would speedily destroy life. total sus-
pension Of the urinary discharges viii occasion
death from thirty-six to forty-eight hours.
When the Urine is voided in small quantities at
the time or when there is disposition to Urlnate
more frequently than natural, or when the Urine
is high colored or scalding, with weakness in the
small of the back, it should not be triied with or
delayed but KOskoo should be taken at once to
remedy the difficulty, before a lesion of the organs
takes place. Nest of the diseases of the Bladder
originate from those of the Kidneys, the Urine
being imperfectly secreted in the Kidneys, prove
irritating to the Bladder and Urinary passages.
When we recollect that medicine never reaches the
Kidneys except through the general circulation OF
the Blood, see how necessary it is to keep the
Fountain of Life Pure.

DISEASES OF THE BLOOD.

''The life of the flesh is in the Blood is q
Scriptural maxim that science proves to be true
The people talk of bad blood, as the cause Of many
diseases, and like many popular opinions this OF
bad blood is founded in truth.
The symptoms of bad blood are usually quite
plain-bad Digestion causes imperfect nutrition,
and consequently the circulation is Feeble the soft
tissues lose their tone and elasticity, and the
tongue becomes pale, broad, and frequently COW
cred with pasty, white coat This condition soon
shows itself in r0tghness Of the skim then in ERUP
TIVE and LUCRATIVE diseases, and when long con-
tinued results in serious LESSONS Of the Brain, Lv
er, Lungs, or urinary apparatus. Much, very
much, suffering is caused by impure blood. II is
estimated by some that one-ffth of the human
family are affected with scrofula In some form
When the blood is pure, you are not SO liable to
any disease. Many impurities OF the Blood arise
from impure diseases Of large cities. Eradicate
every impurity from the fountain Of life, and good
spirits fair skin aud vital strength will return to
you.
