Indigestion or Dyspepsia,

Is a weakness or want Of power Of the digestive

thing that tends to weaken the body, and more
particularly the stomach. Nearly, ii moi quite

THE UNION SOLDIER

Mr.. ConnOr the eloquent congress-
man from Texas, recently re elected,
was Federal soldier in the late war.
He visited his old home in Illinois, a
few days ago, and made a speech to
the people there, He said, among
other thingsj "You came cut to honor
me with your presence, expecting to
hear something about Southern affairs,
q candid statement of facts unbiased
by partisan feeling, and you shall not
be disappointed. The administration
of Governor Davis, of Texas, differs in
but few essential particulars from the
otsser carpet bag or scallaWag govern
ments Of the South. With the ad-
ministration of Davis l am familiar.
He was elected, or declared so, at an
election held on the 30th of Noyem-
Der, first, second and third days of
December, 1863, and on the 31st day of
March following the State was
declared, by joint resolution OF con-
gress, to be in the Union, and his
administration then went into erect.
At that time there we're four hundred
and fifty thousand dollars in the State
treasury, the State was out Of debt,
and the taxes were assessed at fifteen
cents on the hundred dollars. He has
a partisan majority of tWo-thi=ds in
the legislature. They have had control
of the State less than twenty months,
end in that time they vesquandered
the four hundred and fifty thousand
dollars ii the state treasury, raised the
taxes from Giteen cents on the hundred
dollars to two dollars and twenty-five
cents on the hundred dollars, and the
contracted debt Of the State to-day is
fifteen millions of dollars. TnaI Is

transactions-pf twenty months Radical

TO INDIA III FIVE DAYS.

The London Times ssys another at
tempt to solve the problem of direct
railway communication between Eng
land and India has just been made.
The route now open between England
and India which admits of making
the journey in the shortest tiAne is
that by way of Brindisi, Alexandria
and Suez to Kurraehee or Bombay.
The absolute distance is greater than
by the route from Marseilles to Alex
andrla,snbut the advantage gained
from tie greater length of the railway
portion more than cOmpensates in
time for the increased distance that is
travelled. The whole journey is sup
posed to take twenty days, although
it is seldom actually completed with
in this limit. The proposal is to make
use of existing lines Of railway and
the Mont Gents tunnel to Trieste, ard
thence to construct g railroad through
Austria, European and Asiatic Tur-
key, Persia and BeloOchistan to Kurra-
chez, and onward to Bombay. The
total distance from London to Kurrs-
chez would be 5311 miles by rail and
twenty-eight miles (the Straits Of Do
ver) by sea. At q uniform rate of ten
and a hall miles an hour by water and
forty miles an hour by land, the jour
ney from end to end would be accom-
plished in five days, sixteen hours,
forty-six minutes. Calculating the
railway travelling at thirty miles an
hour, the time would be seven days,
thirteen hours, twenty-five minutesI /
ard at tifty miles an hour, four days,
ten hours and thirteen minutes. OF
the total length of line required, near
ly one.fourth (1170 miles) is already
cons rueted. The highest estimated
cost per mile ranges from sS0O0 to
Eli, COO in different localities. The
gross estimate for the several sections
