< Bad ROad.-We have received two com

now road from Newport to Millerstown.-
One of correspondents asserts that "the
road is positively unsafe after dark, and
even in day time it is unfit for use, He
further asserts, with how much truth we
do not know, that the road never was need
ed by the public, and was only made for
the accommodation OF some few individu-
ais. We 90 know that the county was tax
cd for the purpose of making the road, and
it was supposed that the township in which
it lay would keep it in order, SO that the
public could use it, if inclined so to do. If
something is not done before the August
court, one of our correspondents says he
will have the supervisors returned for neg
lect of duty.

The BO0merang.-In answer to corre-
spondent who asks "what a Boomerang
?" we reply: "It is weapon made
from hard wood, and is generally about 2
feet long, % inches wide, and incli thick.
1t is bent to slight curve, the J inch face
presenting a convex front, which, by one of
the sides being rounded is brought TO a
blunt edge, and it is thrown with this edge
forward. The popularity OF the weapon
consists in the manner in which il is used
The person throwing it turns his 6ac& to
the point of attack, and throws the weapon
with great force, as though aiming at an
object about thirty yards before him. The
action of the air on the curved edge and
rounded side makes the weapon describe a
circle, until it finally hits the object really
aimed at, which is within one to two hun
dred yards in tie rear Of the person baojn9
MrOl0n ii. 1t is used with great effect by
the natives of Australia, by whom it was
invented, and it is said that they will kill
birds at a distance of two hundred yards.
A person not used to throwing one would
be very apt to find it coming back, and hit
ting him on the head so as to badly injure
him.

Judge HILARY WARD. of Pulaski,

who passed through our city several
weeks ago on his way to Washington
City, for the purpose of using his in
fluence against the reconstruction
Of Tennessee, returned last Wednes-
day. He thinks there is no danger
whatever that the State will have to
undergo the worst form of recon-
struction, and the probabilities are
strong against any Congressional in
reference at all. There is some talk
of setting aside the New Constitution
recently adopted by the people OF
Tennessee, upon the ground that the
leading members of the Convention
which formed it, were ineligible and
DISTINGUISHED by the Sd section OF the
Fourteenth Amendment. Judge
WARD thinks that even this will not
meet with much favor in Congress.
Five members of Congress from
Tennessee are taking no part in the
effort to reconstruct the State, and
several of them are very Gealous and
influential in their opposition to the
Ubiquitous programme. He met Gen.
Sherman, whom he found to be
stongly opposed to the reconstruction
scheme and thinks the President is OF
the same temper. Our people, not
withstanding this pleasant news,
should not lose single opportunity
of disproving the vile SANDERS agains,
them. Let such ex-Federal sol.
diers as Maj. WILSON and others, ties.
fly whether or not our people are
law abiding.

Is A
REMEDY OF WONDERFUL EFFICACY
In diseases of the Kidneys and Bladder. In
these affections it Is as near specific as any
remedy can be. 1t does its work kindly, ST.
lently and surely. The relief which 1t sfiords
IS both certain and perceptible.
DISEASES OF THE KIDNEYS AND
BLADDER.
Persons unacquainted with the structure and
functions of the Kidneys cannot estimate the
importance of their healthy seton.
Regular and sufficient action Of the kidneys is
as important, nay, even more 80, than reguiari-
ty Of the bowels. The kidneys remove from
blood those effete matter which, If permitted to
remain, would speedily destroy life. total
Suspension of the urinary discharges will oc ca
sion death from thirty six to forty eight honrs
When the urine is voided in small quantities
at the time, or when there is disposition to ur-
nate more frequently than natural, or when the
urine is high colored or scalding, with weak
ness in the small of the back, IT should not be
trified with or delayed, but KOSKOO should be
token at once TO remedy the difficulty, before q
lesion of the organs takes place. Most of the
diseases Of the bladder originate from those of
the kidneys, the urine being impe-fectly secre-
ted in the kidneys, prove irritating to the blad-
der and urinary passages. When we recollect
that medicine never reaches the kidneys except
through the general circulation of the blood,
We see how necessary it is to keep the Foun-
tain Of Life Pure.
