Count Bismarck demands rs preli-
minary and conditional Of peace that
all partisans in the provinces of Alsoce
and Lorraine be delivered over to
Prussia. as we'll rs Fort Dumont, at
the walls of Paris.
The Provisional Government 'consid-

missable and will Immediately address
n proclamation to tho people Of the
nation, as we'll as to Ambassadors
from foreign countries, exposing the
situation, and indicating new mea-
sures to be taken for the national de-
fence.
1t was enormously reported ycster-
day that the engagements around
Paris resulted in French reverses. The
French had the advantage in every
battle yesterday.
Uhlans entered Etamps and de-
manded money and arms. The Mayor
refused unless the force was large
enough to oyerpower him. They left,
and have not appeared since.
BERLIN, September 24.-Toul was
captured by the Prussians at sunset
yesterday.
: LONDON, September 24.-Dispatches
from M Paris to-day state that this
morning rifle firing and cannonading
was heard going on at Paris. 1t was
distinctly observed from the nights
that a conflict is in progress, but there
are no details rs yet.
There is great danger of a revolu-
tionary outbreak in Paris, involving
another change of Government. The
Reds are furious against the present
leaders. e1
A dispatch from Toul says yesterday
the town was captured by storm by
the Prussians, after n determined re-
sistance. Bombardmcnt has been con-
tinued several days, causing great DAM
age and destroying the principal build
ings. The storming party advanced,
and afterward the Prussian forces car
ried by storm.

PROSPECTING nv SPIRITUAL
DIRRCTION.

-
It would seem that the spirits and
clairvoyants are better posted rel
alive to the mineral deposits in the
eastern part Of this State than in this
section. They humbugged II poor
friend VIM badly in the matter of his
famous Irving mine, on Cedar Hill, a
few years ago. But read the following
from the White Pine Ne,cs Of day be-
fore yesterday: "At Reveille District
a work has been carried on under spir-
itual direction, and has resulted so
favorably that the story may not be
uninteresting. F. NJ. Clark, who
owned mines there In connection with
others, went to Chicago for the pur-
pose Of making sale OF the property.
While there he came in contact with a
spiritualist medium, and concluded to
consult her-it was a female-as to the
future prospects Of the mines he pro-
posed to sell, beyond the point which
muscle and powder and steel had ex-
plored. In her clairvoyant state, the
medium told him that upon n certain
claim-the Santa Fe-which had q
shaft started on it, and down six feet,
and in which there was nothing visible
but solid limestone, and had been
abandoned, by moving one foot to the
north and going to the depth OF fifteen
feet n large body of rich ore would DO
encountered. And also, upon another
claim-the Fisherman-by going to q
certain point and drifting fifteen feet
another remarkable deposit would be
found. Some eight or ten months after
this spiritualistic admonition, work
according to direction was commenced
upon the Santa Fe, and sure enough,
at the exact place where the medium
said the deposit WAS, n body of ore
was reached-the first piece assaying
over $1,000 per ton. Its extent Is not
known, but considerable work has
been done, and ut the present writing
the shaft Is In & continuous body of
high grade ore. Yet, Notwithstanding
this remarkable development, no at
tempt was made to find the rich mass
in the Fisherman, until but n few
weeks since, when work was COM
menced, the drift run Is feet, and 4
heavy body Of copper-silver glance or
stetefeldite found 81 feet In thickness,
that assays nearly $6,0OO'a ton, speci-
mems Of which now lie on the table
before us as we write. The men who
did the work are not inclined to spir-
itualism; yet they think, rs well they
may, that it is a queer coincidence
this discovery of masses of rich ore at
the identical spots predicted by a Chi
caro clairvoyant."

SECTION WORK ON THE SEDALIA
itlt ROAD. -A

We learn from reliable source that
the Sedalia & Fort Scott railroad will be
completed to Fort Scott by the first day
of September. There are now about GOO
men on the road between Clinton and
this place, and more are being sent for
ward daily. There is enough iron. at
st. Louis, and on the way from New
Orleans, to lay the track from Sedalia
to point in the Neosho Valley fifty
miles west of Fort Scott. Bob. Stevens,
who has charge of the entire work, says
that they will be prepared to ship cat
tie from the State line direct to st. Louis
by the first of October next.
This is glorious news for our people,
as we'll as st. Louis, which will thereby
secure a route at least one hundred
miles shorter than any other now in Op-
Grafton to Southern Kansas. Track
laying has been going on for some time
from Sednliai west, and weare informed
that the cars will soon run into Clinton
the county seat of Henry county, situa-
ted 20 miles west from the former
place, and 60 miles east of Fort Scott.
Mr.. Stevens is confident that all the
grading will be completed to this place
in sixty days, and we have no doubt
that it viii be so. If he had said il
would be done in thirty days, we should
hardly doubt it, after having witnessed
the rapid building of the NJ, X. s. T
r. r. from Neosho Falls south. Three
months ago there had not been shove
or pick struck, and to-day the cars run
into Chetopa, seventy miles away, anC
there is still fifteen miles of road grad

Edward WiIder's Medicines.
A Cataplasm of Rhubarb,

Laid upon the pit Of the stomach Of child
will cause the bowels TO be emp1ed; and aloes
kept in contact with n raw surface will pro-
duce the same effect as if the medicine had
been taken into the stomach. So said the great
DIR. CIutterbaek. Very many persons know
the operation Of erotOn oil when placed upon
the tongue; to say the least, il is speedy. Pur-
gatIyes In some shape are indispensable IN the
practice Of medicine. Many diseases F-e i'm
durable without them; and all of the simple
disorders Of the system are benefited by their
use. The great desideraturh In their admins
tratiOn has been TO get one which was either
laxative or purgative, as was needed-always
mild but always eficient-andt the use Of which
did not make 1t necessary to continue its use.
This has at last been done. EDWARD WILD
ER's FAMILY PILLS fulfill all the require
ments of the case. They are laxative, yet
sure; purgative, yet mild. In small doses they
meet the first want; in large doses they fulfill
the latter. BHt in whatever. quantity give
they create no necessity Tor their use; they
creates ne morbid state of the alfmentary tube,
but leave it cleansed aud urge it to renewed
health. They are in brief a blessing to the in
diyidual who suffers from constipation and
needs q laxative, and are indispensable to him
who is parched with fever and requires a pur-
gative. Use them, all yoaI who value health.

Helminthology.

A distinguished Psychologist has declared
that 1t seems to be y principle Of nature that
every Situation capable OF supporting living
organic bodies should be peopled with them.
The huge whale is often driven to madness by
an almost invisible member of the great tribe
Of vermes. The history Of Helminthology
abOunds in illustrations of the influence OF
worms in the production of disease and in the
evaporation Of their symptoms. The fire.
qucncy of worms in the bodies of men, thei=
oDviousness to the senses, together with their
common connection with enfeebled and NOR
bid states of the animal economy, all tend to
render them an object OF interest from the re-
hottest periods. The very abiest minds have
been devoted to the study Of these entozoa with
the view of discovering some substance which
was capable Of speedily, safely, and perma-
nently expelling them from the human sys-
tenn. EDWARD WLDER's MOTHERS WORM
SYRUP is q true vermieide, genuine worm
destroyer, a bona Jide vermifuge. It's taste is
delightful, its effects are quick its results I'M
failing. 1t is free from danger. No intestinal
worm can live in its presence. Mothers! de-
stroy the worms which infcst your little ones,

DR.. Laennec.

This renowned Frenchman did more per-
haps to clear up the mysteries which before
his time had invested the nature of chest d.
seases than any other physiei who ever lived.
Yet with all his skill in detecting the nature
and form of the malady before him, he was
sadly deficient in his knowledge Of remedies.
He drew vivid pictures OF coughs, catarrh, and
all the affections Of the air passages, still he
left but few words concerning their treatment.
The youngest physician to-day knows better
how to manage any one of the chest troubles:
he knows the value of the wild cherry; he is
acquainted with its supreme virtues; he is
aware of the many potent agents which enter
into the combination of Edtcdrd WildeySs
Compound Extract Of Wild Cherry, and knows
that with the use of this truly great medicine
he is fully master OF tho SITUATION He has no
fear in the presence Of Group, no misgiyings at
the advance Of bronchitis; he ygrapples with
consumption, and subdues every cough, cold,
or eatarrh. Hence every family should always
have this invaluable medicine at hand.
