CURE OF KIDNEY AND LIVER AFFECTION OF A
PATIENT SEVENTY EIGHT YEARS OF AGE.
THANKS TO MIR. HELMBOLD.
GIRARD, Pa, March 81, 1869.

GIRARD, Pa, March 81, 1863.
EDITOR COsMoPLITE: DESIRE as an unsolicited
tribute to the merits of Helmbold's Buchu and for
the benefit of those similarly afflicted myself to
say that after many eminent ply sicians,
and trying nearly all the best advertised remedies,
in the vain hope of finding relief from aggravated
kidney and bladder diseases, from which have
suffered excessively for many years, good fortune
finally suggested to me HelmbOld's Buchu, which
commenced using with little faith, and no apparent
beneficial results for about month. At the expr-
alton of that time, however, thought commenced
to experience slight relief, which encouraged me to
persevere in its use, and now Mt the expiration Of
four months, although am an infirm old man,
nearly 10 years of age, and consequently medicines
cannot be expected to favoraby affect me they
otherwise would, l have found such unspeakable
relief and permanent benefit from Mr.. Helmbold's
valuable discovery, that feel l ought to publicly
record the fact, as an acknowledgement to him and
valuable suggestion to the public.
Yours respectfully, DIN. LAREN.

THE PLAN o. BISMARCK AND
PHlM.

PHiM.
Bismarck and Prim arranged 10
have Leopold put on the Spanish
throne, and the plan agreed upon
between the two rulers was that
when Leopold had become firmly
seated on the Spanish throne he
should give Cuba her indepen-
dence, on the condition, to be set
tied beforehand, that the Cubans
should agree to place themselves
under the protection Of Prussia,
and should ask for it. In return
for the boon of independence thus
secured, Cuba was to pay to Spain
the sum of one hundred millions
of dollars, and the payment of this
sum was to be guaranteed by Prus-
STA. In conclusion Of this guaran-
tee, and of the protectorate, the
North German Confederation was
to have the use Of the port Of Ha-
vana, or the Gulf Of Nipe, or any
other waters of Cuba, for the pur.
poses of naval stations. 1t is to
be understood that this plan was
Bismarck's and that 4 part Of the
hundred millions Of dollars has
already been advanced to Prim by
q German banking house in Lon
don, upon Bismarck's responsible.
ity, This banking house has for
some time past had an agent in
Havana, an Englishman, sounding
the disposition of the Havana
S~paniards with reference to a
Prussian protectorate. In the
opinion Of Count Bismarck it is
very desirable for the North Ger.
man Confederation to acquire a
foothold in America, such rs this
Cuban arrangement would afford,
otherwise the Confederation can
never become q naval power OF
the first class. The limited sea
coast and the few harbors Of the
German States put any grand de.
velopment of maritime force out
of the question. We are assured
that the late Lord Clarendon as
sented to this plan, and gave all
possible aid to its c~onsummation
during the last portion Of his life.
His probate object was to prevent
the annexation of Cuba to the
United States. That such was his
policy is confirmed by the fact
that all the dispatches from the
British Colonial office to the Gov
errors of the Bahama, Jamaica,
and the other British West India
possessions, direct them to frus-
trate all expeditions from the
United States in aid of the Cuban
revolution.

who IL Leopold Of HOhcnzOI-
leFn

Hohenzollern Hechingen and
Hohenzollern Sigmaringen were
formerly two small sovereign prin
cipalities in Germany, BY u treaty
Of the seventh Of December, l849,
the reignlng princes of Hohen.
zollern coded all sovereign rights
over their respective principali-
ties, which were Baden and Wur
tenburg to the King of Prussia,
the chief of the Hohenzollern
family. Prince Anton of Hohen-
zollern- Sigmaringen the father OF
Prince Leopold, the president
candidate for the Spanish throne,
received the title of highness, by
a royal decree, with the proro-
gatives of the younger princes of
the royal house of the Hohen-
zollern. Prince Leopold is the
eldest son of PrinceAnton and ola
Princess Josephine of Baden, his
wife. He was born in 1885, and
was married in 1861, to Princess
Antonio, the sister Of the present
King Of Portugal. He holds the
rank of Major in the first regi.
ment Of o guards at Berlin, and
is said to be q very intelligent,
modest and good looking man.
His younger brother, Charles, is
the reigning prince OF Rouniania.
The HOhenzollcrn, to which
Prince Leopold belongs, is a side
branch of the reigning family OF
Prussia, with no right Of success
sion to the crown. They are
moreover Catholic, and allied
mostly by their wives to Catholic
princely families They never.
theless recognize the King Of
Prussia as the head of the whole
family of Hohenzollern, and they
would neither marry nor accept a
position, such as the one offered
to Prince Leopold, without the adj.
vice and express permission Of the
King, This is we'll understood at
all the courts of Europe, and as
far as the responsibility for the
acceptance Of the Spanish crown
by Prince Leopold is concerned,
in case the Cortes should devolve
that honor upon him, the present
King Of Prussia cannot refuse to
take it. 1t is in the nature OF
things that such an affair, which
of itself is only family arrange.
ment, acquires the proportions of
q state question, and in this par.
ticular case it may very likely be-
come as big an affair as any for
which armies ever struggled, and
for which the pockets of the PEG.
pie we're ever emptied.

SENATOR REvELs, of Mississippi,
was in Louisville the other day,
but it appears did not reyeI in the
many pleasures of that delightful
city. The Courier journal says
he went away disguised. At BosS
ton he got an ovation. In Louis.
vile he didn't get so much as a
slice of ''cold huckleberry pud-
ding"
The same journal expresses sur
prise that amid all the wealth, cul-
ture and hospitality of the Repub.
lican party in Louisville, Senator
Revels was not invited to dine?
They might at least have invited
him into the kitchen.
It appears from the same source
that all the colored people are
outraged at the conduct ofthe Re-
leaders toward Senator
Revels. No one met him at the
market house, Nobody, except
the cOlored people, went to hear
bis lecture. All that they did was
to give him a cold potatOe and lei
him go.
Even the white Radical BARRIERS
in Louisville cut the Senator.
The Radicals there complain
the sable Senator was not al
to ride on the street cars.
Ven, they did not even invite him
into the back pariOr, says the
Courier journal.

The Memphis Avalanche fears
that one Of the most serious eff.
fects Of the European war on
American interests, will be the in
terruption Of emigration from both
North and South Germany, which
for the last twelve months has
been Unprecedented, as well in the
moral and social caste Of the emf
grants as in the volume Of the
tide.
We are inclined to differ from
our friends Of the Avalanche. We
think that the better class Of Ger
mans who contemplate change of
nationality, being in a better con-
dition pecuniarly to leave, and to
escape service in a war in which
they can have but little interest if
they intend to make their future
home in the United States,
win hasten their departure. On
the other hand the common classes
cannot so readily leave, and must
Of necessity, form the bone and
sinew Of the army at home.

served in the Confederate service
with that brilliant officer and stern
disCiplinarian, yet kind hearted
and generous friend, at the very
commencement of the struggle,
and was assigned to duty on the
defenses at Pensacola. There
we're many rich anecdotes told of

be recalled to the memory of the
survivors Of the Florida Army,
when they read the following
which we copy from the Courier
