Coon MEDICINEs.-Dr. Hall relatos
the case of man who was cured Of bilious
ness by going without his supper, and
drinking freely Of lemonade. Every
morning this patient arose with woudstl
full sense of rest, refreshment, and . feeling
as though the blood had been litsrally
washed, cleansed and cooled BY Lemonade
and the fast His theory is that food may
be used as q remedy for many diseases sue
cessfully. For example, he instances cures
Of splitting Of blood by the use Of salt; ep-
ilepsy and yellow fever, watcrmelons; hid
ney affections, celery; poison, olive sweet
oil; erysipelas, pounded cranberries ap-
piled to the parts affected hydrophobia,
onions, etc. So the thing to do 10 ordsr
to keep in good health is to know what to
eat, and not what medicine to take.

The Dubuque (Iowa) Telegraph Of Jan:

Warranted to take out the Kinks.
The Dubuque (Iowa) Telegraph Of Jans
uary 6, says:
About o'clock yesterday afternoon
chap who supported gold watch and chain
and any quantity Of mustache, was seen to
put down dry goods box at the corner Of
Main and FIRST streets. He did it with
such an air of dignity and business that
everybody wondered what his object was,
in consequence of which large crowd as
sembled. Among others surrounding this
new-faund center of interest were q num-
Der of negroes, who are ever willing to be
On hand on such an occasion. He OF the
mustache and chain mounted the boz, and
Immediately produced from satchel q
number of bottles which contained pecu:
liar looking liquid. This, he said, was the
greatest invention of the age, and was got
ten up by philanthropist whose only OBJ.
ject was to enhance the happiness Of the
African race. The bringing of this inven-
tion to perfection was mammoth work of
intellect, and had required the patient
study Of years. The greatest boon was
bestowed for the triflng price of one dollar
per bottle, and was nothing more nor less
than an article to take kinks out Of nigger's
arool. This announcement was received
with evident manifestations of delight BY
the colored people present. The young
mokes, who many time and oft had men,
tally denounced Mr.. Ham for having been
SO rash as to incur the displeasure of his
aged sire, in consequence of which their
heads were covered with tufts of wool, in
vested literally in the inventors bottles,
aud before an hour had elapsed, no less than
sixty bottles had been disposed Of Before
the minds eye of the purchasers arose WIS.,
ions Of luxuriant heads of hair-hair that
was to take captive the hearts of the ebony
Dinahs, and which would outyie in beauty
the blackest diamond. The seller of this
Incompatible stuff having disposed of as
much Of it as he could, picked up his traps
and left for Chicago. 7an .aoae
Now comes the sad part of the story.
The purchasers assembled together and
resolved to try the effects of one of the
bottles on the head of dininutive speci-
men of moke, whose loss, should the
kink be death dealing, would not create
much of gap in the community African.
So the application was made, aud, this
morning, an inquisitive Caucasian went to
the residence Of the youth operated on to
take note of effects. He raped at tho
door, and it was opened by the sable and
miniature specimen he was in quest of.
But what sight met his gaze. As tho
negroes say, the child was entirely bare
footed on the top of his head There
wasn't even thread of wool left to indi-
cate that that little black patch of flesh
and bone had ever been soil adapted to
the growth Of curls not exactly Hyperion.
Not only that, but the flesh was decorated
with little red spots here and there, which
clearly proved that the medicine not only
took out the kinks Of the wool, but had q
tendency to convert a sable individuals
skin to the color of that of Indians. We
hear of several fifteenth amendments
who have bottles for sale.

CLEAR GRIr.-The following extract
from lecture recently delivered by Rev.
Robert Collyer, shows the advantage Of
what is commonly called "grit," to any
one wishing success in business:
every man who is doing any sort of
work in Chicago, to-day, was raised poor
x-an's son, and had to fight his way to his
place. Not one of them, as far as ! can
ascertain, was rich mans son, and had a
good time when he was boy. All have
fought their way to an education, and
when they were ready, plunged into life
with that traditional half dollar and little
bundle tied up in a red handkerchief, as l
have observed all men start. / tell you
that in five and twenty years, when most
Of us that arc now in our middle ages have
gone to their retribution, the men Of mark
in this country will not be sons Of those
whose fathers can give them all they wish
for, and ten times more than they ought
to have, but will be those who are brought
up in farm houses aud cottages, cutting
their way through thick set hindrances of
every sort; and all the brown stone houses
of this metropolis will be as nothing to
bring out the noble man.

A Few "Contingent" Expenses
GFrom the New York World I


A statement of the expenditures of the
war department for contingent expenses
during the year 1870, shows that about
half million of dollars were expended in
paying some of the grislicst bills Of the
late glorious war-bills that for common
decency's sake should long ere this have
been pigeon holed in some obscure nook of
the war office. A few items, taken as we
find them, are " For handouts and leg
irons;" for expenses incurred in derelop.
ing evidence y =" for 2 dozen handouts
and 4 lanterns; y for furnishing l gallows
complete, sl00;" " for 1l2 pairs hand
shacklcs and 26 leg shackles;" "post
chaplain, for expenses incurred by direc.
tion of Major General Butler in paying
organists, sextons, and choirs for services
rendered upon funeral occasions and Sun
days in Christ church and St. PauPs
church, New Orleans y for 900 sets
Adams patented handouts, and Al balls
and chains )" for expenses incurred in
conveying one prisoner -, charged with
winning funds from United States dis.
bursting oficer;" " for 2 anklets and 4
CHAINS; - Tor erecting gall0ws ana com
pletiug all necessary arrangements for the

-, S54 SO; )" ''for ane, S54 75;" "for
special train to convey Governor q. p.
Morton aud staff" g for 80 pairs hand
cuffs asd 33 pounds chain" and so on,
for handouts and shackles and rope and
gallows, not forgetting thousands upon
thousands to those lice of despotsm, the
detectives, until the war expenditures of
1870 aggregate half a dollar per head for
every man, woman and child in the largest
city in the United States. No wonder
the money goes when half a million slips
through on Chorpenning claim, and
another half million is required FIVE years
after the war ends to pay the years bills
for handouts and hangmcn. These being
the contingent expenses, what must be
the regular, were the truth known?
