The President and his Accusers.

facts. We shall necessarily have

AMERICAN PRoTzcrIoN.-Tli,
Government has taken prompt
measures looking to the protection
OF American citizens in Cuba. This
promptness in action is in keeping
with the record of the Presidents
administration. For once Demo-
cratic papers commend the course
of the administration, The Gin.
cinnati Enquirer shakes an imayi
nary Spain, and declares as follows:
I'VE have ND sympathy for blood
thirsty Spain or her barbarons
minions, who are numbering

it can be shown that her represen-
tatives have maltreatcd American
citizens, We shall insist upon am
pie apology and reparation. A
government which will not protect
its citizens in foreign lands has mo-
right to demand allegiance anu re-.
srecs from its citizens at home
As will be seen by the Washington
dispatches. the Government has ac-
ted considerably as well as
promptly. The spectacle Of the

GEN. THOMAS M. BROWNE FOR
GOVERNOR OF INDI ANA.
RUsHvILLE, IND, Dec. IL.

hUsHVILLE, IND, Dec. IL.
To the Editor of the Cincinnati Gazette:
AS the time is fast approaching
wien the Republican party OF Ind
lana will be called upon to select
q candidate for Governor, have
concluded to contribute a short
communication to your paper as
the best medium through which to
reach the Republican voters Of
Indiana. aud present the name of
Gen. Thomas NJ Browne, Of Ran
dolph County. as the candidate for
Governor il 1871. 1t is conceded
that tho Republican party will have
to put their hest men in the field
next year in order to make the
ticket a success; anil tu present
men who are not, or have not
been, concerned in any Of the po-
litical squabbles that have trans
pired in this State in the last few
! years; and Gen Browne is. and has
been. of all others, more entirely
a!cof, and disconnected With any
differences that have occurred in
the party, than any man in the
State. OfGen. Brownies ability,
it is VI eless to say anything in COM
mendation or praise, as he is
known throughout the State as
one Of the ablest and best men We
have. As lawyer he has no su-
perior, and as a public speaker he
has but few equals in the State.
He is now, and has been since the
spriag Of 1869. United States Dis
trict Attorney for the district o'
Indiana, and has flied the position
With great credit to the State and
himself He is the best District
Attorney that has ever filed til
position 10 this State. His wal
record is the equal Of any. HI
served nearly the whole period
filling several important position;
during that time to the universal
satisfaction and approval Of his
superiors and to the men under
his charge.
And in regard to his servicel
for the party, it is safe to say tha
no man II. the State has done more
and received less reward He hal
made most thorough canvass 0
the State in nearly every cam.
paign for the last ten years, an;
during that time has never been
candidate for any Office whateve,
!aboring solely for the benefit o
the party. Gen. Browne is a yonni
man, ard would be more likcls t.
bring out the strength Of the youn
men of the party than any ma
that could be nominated. And

4 Care for Smallpox.

Acorrespondent. Of the Stockton
(Cll Herald gives the following
IS sure cure for small -pox.
I herewith append . recipe
which has been used to my knowl-
edge in hundreds Of cascs. It will
prevent or cure the small pox. even
though the pittings arc filling.
When Jenner discovered the COW
pox in England the world OF sci
ence hurled an avalanche OF fame
on his head; but When the mes.
scientific school OF medicine in the
world-that Of Paris-pMblishea
this recipe as panacea for small
pox. il passed unheeded. It is as
unfailing as fate, and conQuers in
every instance. It is harmless
when taken by a well person. 1t
will also cure scarlet fever.
Here Is tn, recipe as l have used
it and cured many children Of Tic
scarlet fever; here it is as l have
used it to euro tue smallpox.
when learned physicians said the
patient must die:
"Sulphate Of zinc, one grain !;
icxglove (digitalis lone grain; half
a teaspoonful Of sugar; mix with
two tablespooSstul OF water"
When the above has been
thoroughly mixed, add four ounces
water. Take spoonful every
hour. Either disease will di.ap-
pear in twelve hours For child,
smaller doses, according to age. Ii
counties would compel physicians
to use this, there would be no neess
OF pest houses. Ifyou value ads
vice and experience, use this for
that terrible aud dreadful scourgc.
