Ell Vino Catalina.-The announcement

Ell Vino Catalina.-The announcement
thst has been SO generally heralded throughout
the country that an American company has again
commenced importing this celebrated Wine
Tonic is matter of no small importance, and
will be hailed with joy by all those seeking a
pure and invigorating tonic; Also those who
need pure pleasant and refreshing stmulunt
will find in the Ell Vino Catalina, or Brown 5
Catalina Wine Tonic what they want. 1t will
be remembered that importations were made in
1866 Of this noted brand, but in consequence Of
the high duty then demanded by this govern
ment the enterprise ceased, to the regret OF
thousands who had learned its value. 1t is the
Oldest tonic in the world, and doubtless the most
invigOrating, the purest and best, and If impor.
tation continues at the rates now started, it will
luke its place in every family in this rs we'll as
ia the old countries Its merits will make 1t
household article, and We hope that every one
who has ever used any Bitters or common patent
tonic, will at least try one bottle Of the Catalina
and then decide for themselves whether they
will Use this Tonic, prepared from the pure
juice of the Catalina grape, with Calsaya and
tho spices Of Ceyloa or Il bitters made of COM
mon whskey and bitter field herbs. This is an
invaluable preparation for weakness ard debili-
ly; it relieves morning languor and gives fresh
aess and appetite, not followed by unpleasant

Facts Worth knowing.--During re-
cent trial or comparison of ordinary Baking
Powders in New York, with Dooley's Yeast
Powder it was shown conclusiv0ly that better
results were attained with from one-half to two
thirds the quantity of the latter, than with an0
other in market The secret of the success lies
in the care with which Dooley's Yeast Powder
is prepared and Its entire freedom from sub

The Legislature and Augusta County.

After mentioning the action of the Legisla
ture in striking Augusta from the list of coun
ties authorized to vote subscriptions to Rail-
roads, the Lexington gazette says:
$50, as the matter now stands, the county
Of Augusta cannot have the privilege Of voting
upon this question at all. What right the Leg
islature has to deny people the privilege Of
doing as they please with what is exclusively
their OVID, we cannot see. All that was asked
was the authority to submit to vote of the
people Of that county the question: Whether
they would vote certain amount of their own
money for certain purposes mentioned In the
Bill. This, majority Of the Legislature, il
their acistlom and discretion, say Augusta shall
not do. Thus, these Legislative sarans consti-
tute themselves guardians for the people of q
county whose business majority of them
know nor care nothing about We would ad-
wise Augusta to send down committee dt
idiotico iaQuireado and try to secure these gen.
tlemen as an addition to the population Of
Staunton or Towards Grove, or some other
place where mental imbecility is treated
