Poisonous Medicines.

The theory that the virus of diease can be
safely counteracted by doses OF poison, is
false and dangerous. Within the lasttwenty-
five years, not less than a score of virulnt
poisons have been added to the repoi-
tory of the medical profession. They are
given in small doses, otherwise they would
destroy life Immediately; but even in Mi
mute quantities they produce, ultimately,
very disastrous effects. II is unwise and
unphilosophical to employ, as remedies,
powerful and insidious drugs, which, IN
subjugating one disease, SOW the seeds Of
anot her still more unmanageabe. None Of
these terrible indictments operates with
as much directneSs and certainty upon
the causes of disease as HOStetter's S'Omah

The Malaria Of Spring.

Everybody should now be on their guard
against the great danger Of disease arising
from malarious causes. Fever and Ague
prevails to an alarming extent every Spring
in nearly all parts Of the country, and
many persons are easily predisposed to II on
account OF some imprudence during the
winter months. Indeed, very much Of the
sickness We notice in the Spring ofthe year
may be traced to causes which were en-
gendered in the "cold term" But whether
the cause lies hidden in the system or not,
1t is certain that disease will develop itself
at the first opportunity, hence, no one
should hesitate for moment to set about
combating and overthrowing it. To accom-
plish this purpose, nothing is so useful and
reliable as MISHLER'S HERB BITTERS.
1t is a positive antidote for any malarious
or imprisoned atmosphere and certain
protection against every morbid influence
which produces disease. We say in all can
dor To our readers that they should give
heed 10 our advice on this subject.

Deficiency.

The Daily Courier Of last Saturday
SAYS: "The report Of the Finance COM
mittee, made in both Houses Of the
Legislature yesterday, shows different
condition Of the State Treasury, from
that portrayed in the rose-colored state
ments of the Governor and Auditor.
1t seems that the appropriations and
disbursements for the fiscal year ending
September Goth, 1870, exceeded the re-
ceipts by something over 100000 The
present State officers have attempted
TO produce different impression.
Instead Of there being large surplus
as they represent, there was an
actual deficit at the end Of the last tis-
cal wear Of the amount above stated.
To figure out contrary result, they
have added the receipts OF
three months of the present tis-
cal wear to those of the last, and set
the aggregate against the expenses OF
the last. In this way they have the re
ceipts of nine months of the present
fiscal year to meet the expenses OF the
whole wear This, their trick to charge
their own deficit to. Democratic &C

baltimore Short Line Railway.

The improper location of the road
between Warrsns and Belpre has, since
the opening Of the road, always been a
source Of great expense in maintenance
and loss in revenue to the company.
1t is difficult, at this day, to under.
stand the motives which governed the
managers of this road in its early his,
tory, in locating it over ravines, requir,
ing very long and high trestles, and
across most rugged country, while the
natural and more economical route,
both as to original cost and subsequent
maintenance, through the valley OF the
Hooking, by a line about ten miles
shorter than the existing, could have
been secured. With the view OF remedy
ing this grave error in location, the
Baltimore Short Line Railroad Com,
pany has, during the past year, been
incorporated under the laws of Ohio,
and proposes, with the assistance of the
Marietta d Cincinnati Railroad Com,
pany, to construct a road in as direct a
line as practicable from Warrens to
Belpre. Its completion is regarded as
essential to the establishment of a per-
feet route between Cincinnati and Balti,
more.
The new line has been located with
great care by Mr.. Manning, who re,
CARDS il as the finest alignment ever
made by him. The road will be almost
free from curvatures, and the grades
throughout nearly its entire length will
be no greater than are required for drain.

NItt.
From the Nashville Banner.
DR.. VIM. Burdett, who resides at No
339 South Cherry street, died at e
clock last evening under the most
peculiar circumstances. About halt an
hour previous to his demise he had
driven to the residence of Conductor
Edward Wells, near the Decatur depot,
who lay very i'll Of intlammatory
rheumatism. After leaving some in
strutions with his patient, he got into
his buggy and started his horse home
ward
Sudden death, like a stroke Of light
ming, overlook him probably before he
had driven more than a few hundred
wards, and the late living, speaking hui
man being, who few moments before
had talked calmly and quietly. after his
usual manner, to a patient and the
patients family, and even joked with a
little boy whom he met by the street
side as he entered his buggy, still sat
stark and stiff upright upon his seat,
the reins clutched in his hands, staring
eyes looking out upon the street, driving
homeward-a corpse. Father OF us al,
what was it that those who met that
horse and vehicle saw in the face of the
driver that madethem shudder and hurry
on little faster?
Death looked out from those Eieless
ewes, and it was he who had guided the
unknowing horse plodding on toward
his late masters door, and those who
looked into the vehicle, felt something
awful and indetinable which made them
shudder, perhaps, and hasten involun-
tarily forward The horse drew up at
the familiar hitching-post, but no
master descended, and he stood gently
paving the ground, anon jerking the
lines, but he got no answer to these
signals, however Oft repeated. No
familiar voice, which had so often
chided or cheered him in long jaunts.
Then he pricked back his ears and
jerked the reins a little harder, and
listened, but there was no response,
save the grating OF the leather over the
dashboard. What could it all mean ?
And now Mrs. Burdett looks out OF
the window and says: "Well, l declare,
the doctors come, but why don't he
get out?' She looks a moment, but he
doesn't move, and she says, perhaps he
wants something, and then she trips
out to the street, looks up into the
buggy, aud says, well, William, what
is it?' No answer. And then she
bends on the figure there. 1t is her
husband, but the face is livid and the
ewes blindly staring William oh,
William p and she grasps him by the
hands, still clutching the reins; they
are cold and stiff. He is dead.
Through the assistance Of several
gentlemen DR.. Burdett's body was taken
into the house, where Coroner Brlen
held an inquest over his remains. The
jury returned verdict that he came to
his death from disease Of the heart.

pamphlet entitled the Health and
Wealth OF the City of Wheeling. 1t
is q second edition Of his work upon
the same subject which was published
last winter, but is much enlarged and
considerably improved in many re-
spects. The hasty glance which IS all

il. shows that the author has bestowed
great pains upon the work and collected
facts and statistics that could only be
obtained by much labor. The book
will be valuable for reference IN relation
to the present trade, sanitary condition,

small sum of sixty cents which Is It's
