OUR CANDIDATES IN THE COUNTRY.


In proof of the fallaciousness Of the
arguments cf negative supporters Of our
party-that the eanvassing of the county
was incompatible with the dignity of
gentlemen who aspirsd to Judicial hon
ors-we cite the facts, that 10 Kentucky,
Ohio, and other great States, the people
are holding conventions Cor the purpose
Of nominating candidates for the posi-
ton Of judges-the intelligent Democ-
racy Of those States experimenting that
it IS alone through conventions that 3
proper representative can be presented
to the people, and the Vaccinations Of
the Radical enemy overcome. In the
present canvass, in Shelby, we discover
the ropriety of nominations for judges,
as il is the universal sentiment Of the
good people Of Shelby that we're it not
for TIE action Of the late nominating
Convention in giving US a splendid
ticket Of intelligent and unimpeached
gentlemen, and sending them into the
country TO advise with our people, the
results would have been fatal to our
cause. Il Is gratifying to US TO khoy
that cheering news come daily from all
paris Of the country. advising as Of the
graceful bearing Of our standard-bearers

That the most common ailments of the
present are Neuralgia and Rheumatism,
both of which proceed from the same
cause-Acidity of the Secretions, acting,
as it were, as blood poison, and giving
rise to the painful suffering incident to
an attack of the above mentioned dis
eases. The Kidneys are the natural de.
purants or purifiers of the blood, and
want of tone and action of these organs
The cause and origin of both Neuralgia
and Rheumatism. The effete products
of the decomposed tissues of the ,ody
form Urea and Uric Acid, which, in the
healthy condition of the Kidneys, are
removed from the blood in its passage
through them. which, remaining in the
blood, is unquestionably the cause Of
both diseases named, and their removal

of cure.

who is against spiritualism admits the
existence of evil spirits among us, but
not of good spirits. The latter claims
not only the existence of both here, but
that both are at work reforming and
leading men astray. Their discussion
does not shed an abundance of light
