m@POISONOUS MEDI


CINE. The theory that the virus Of dis-
c,Sc can bc safely countcractcd By doses Q
poison, is false and dangerous. Within the
list twenty-five years, no: less than score
OF virnlent poi<ors have been added to the
repository Of the medical profession. They
are given iu small doses, otherwise they
would destroy life Immediately; but even in
minute quantities, they produce, ultimately.
very disastrous effects. It is unwise and
unphilosopllical to employ, as remedies,
powerful end inSidious drugs, which, in
snljagating one disease, SOW the seeds Of
another still more uumanaseable. None Of
these terrible medicaments operates with as
mach direc:Ecss and certainty upon the
causes OF disease as Hostetter's Stou.

without single delcterious ingredient IN

given Tor intermitteEtS; bromide Of potas-
slim for nervous disorders strychBine and
prusSic sciL for general debility mercury, in
various for'ns, for liver complaint prcpa-
rations Of chloroform and opium for sleep
lessuesS and yet these deadly drugs do not
compare, as specifics for the diseases abore
enumerated, with that wholesome veseta-
bic invigorant and alternative, while they are
all so pernicious that it is astonishing any
physician should take the responsibility OF
prescribing them. Let invalids, for their

sort to the poi<ons. The relief they viii
experience from course Of the harmless
specific, will render recourse To- the un-

SECURE TIE SHADow.-Mr. WlScman,
photographers, is prepared with all late ap>
planes and lights in his beautiful art to
take pictures in approved style, and now
that the days arc long and the light strong
he can accommodate sitters in almost any
number. No better time than the present
for the little ones. Visit his gallery by all
means if you arc in want Of a good picture,
and if you think a picture is not needed, so
and examine his specimens, and then you
will change your mind. As guide in the
choice Of dress we copy the following from
the Columbia Daily Union:
"In dressing for photographs, dark brown,
dark green, maroon, and plain black goods,
without gloss, will make a rich drab color
Silks Of the same color will take considcra-
bly, lighter. Snuff brown, dark leather,
dark drab, scarlet, cherry, dark orange,
crimson and sla'c will also take q rich dra5
color. Violet, blue, purple, pink and ma
gcuta will take very light, and should be
avoided. The hair should not be very we:
or glossy"

corruption which have led to their ex

ut the same time that we have no fnth

Ohio Democracy.

The democracy Of Montgomery Co.,
under the auspices Of the Hon. G. J..
yallandigham, at Dayton, on Thursday
the 10th, met in convention to appoint
delegates to the State Convention, which
meets in June. The platform proposed
By Mr.. Tallandigham On that occasion,
being an abandonment Of his previous
position, excitcs great comment. His
change of front, says the News CORES
drncc, from which we make up the fol
lowing synopsis, is really sensation in
politics 1t was reported:
j. That agreeing to disagree in all res
poets as to the past we cordially unite
upon the living issues Of the day: and
hereby invite all men Of the Republican
party Uho believe now upon prcSen, Is
sues as We believe, to cooperate fully ana
actively with US upon the basis Of per.
feet equality with every member Of the
democratic party.
I: further accepts the results Of the
war, and buries out Of sight all that is
dead of the past, namely the right of
secession, slavery, inequality before the
Law, and political inequality. 1t re af-
firms the doctrines Of States Rights, and
is opposed to all attempts at ceHtra'iza-
ton and consolidation Of power in the
hands Of the general government, and
more especially when such attempts are
in the form Of usurpation By any depart
,nen:of the government. Universal am,
nesty is deemed emiaent'y appropriate,
in the name Of wisdom, justice and Re.
publican government, to secure universal
political rights and equality among both
the white and colorcd people, and to the
end that peace may be bad. The pay
,nens Of the public debt is urged, and
s,ric, economy and honesty in every part
of the administration Of the government
demanded. 1t is in favor Of revenue re-
form. Taxation should be based on
wealth and not on population, and that
every person Should te required to con
tribute to the support Of the government:
in proportion to the amount, and not
with reference TO the character Of his
property. That specie is The basis Of ali
sound currency, anG that trac policy re-
quires rs speedy q return TO that basis as
is practicable without distress to the
debtor class of the people. And it fur
thcr denounccs the ku Ktux bill, as in.
termeadiing with tic exclusively loca!
concerns of every State, and as 7evo!u-
tionarv and dangerous, and that the q"
gniaiStra,ioa Of Grant deserves The Gu,
rha.ic condemnation Of the people.
Such is brief synopsis Of the lending
features Of the resolutions, and u?oH the
strength cf which says the corrcS2on-
dent, i, MAJ be regarded as certain now
sha. the National democratic party will
accept the situation, and in the Nation
a Convention will cat loose from the
dead issues Of the past"
