kukIuX Order.

Washington, May 1S.-An order
has been issued from the War De
partmcnt containing the Presidents
ku-kluX proclamation, which con-
cludes as follows:
"The President directs that when
ever occasion shall arise, the regu-
lar forces Of the United States sta
toned in the vicinity of any locali-
ty where offences described by the
act approved April Goth, 1871, may
be committed, shall in strict accord
ance with the provisions of said act
be employed by their commanding
officers in assisting the authorized
civil authorities of the United States
i'll making arrests of persons accused
under the said act, in preventing
the rescue Of persons arrested for
such cause, i'll breaking up and III
dispensing bands of disguised ma
rauders and of armed organizations
against the peace and quiet of the
lawful pursuit Of the citizen in any
State. Whenever troops are en-
ployed in the manner indicated in
this order, the commanding officer
will, at the earliest opportunity,
make a full report of his operations
to the proper superior authority-'

Poisonous Medicines.

The theory that the virus of disease can
be safely counteracted by doses of poison,
is false and dangerous. Within the last
twenty-five years, not less than a score of
v~irulent poisons have been added to the
repository of the medical profession. They
are given in small doses, otherwise they
would destroy life Immediately; but even
in minute quantities, they produce, ulti-
mately, very disastrous effects. 1t is I'M
wise and unphilosophical to employ, as
remedies, powerful and insidious drugs,
which, in subjugating one disease, SOW the
seeds of another still more u~nmanagcable.
None of these terrible m~edicaments operates
with as much directness and certainty upon
the causes of disease as Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters, a tonic and corrective, qcithout u
single deleterious ingredient in its compo-
sition. Arsenic and quinia are given for
intermittents; bromide of potassium for
nervous disorders; strychnine and prussic
acid for general debility; mercury, in va
rious FORMS, for liver complaint; prepare
tons of chloroform and opium for slecpless-
ness; and yet these deadly drugs do not
compare, as specifics for the diseases above
enumerated, with that wholesome vegetable
invigorant and Alternative, while they are all
so pernicious that it is astonishing any ply
stefan should take the responsibility of pres
cribiRg them. Let invalids, for their own
sakes, try the Bitters before they resort to
the poisons. The relief they will expe-
rience from a course of the harmless speci-
fic, will render a recourse to the unsafe pre-
parations referred to, quite unnecessary.

Yellow Fever at BuenOs Ayres.

From an article in the Baltimore

in regard to the ravages of the vel
low fever at Buenos Ayres, the cap
ital of the Argentine republic in
South America:
With a population considerably
over two hundred thousand, Buenos
Ayres, by the fourth of April last,
had been decimated by the death OF

sand had taken flight to the coun-
try towns, leaving scarce sixty thou
sand i'll the city, one-half nearly OF

cents, unable to assist in caring for
their sick fellow-citizens. Most OF

Guiding nearly all the churches,

The TendOme Column.

The vandalism of the Parisians
in their own beautiful city, has no
parallel in history. Armies often
lay waste and destroy while in the
territory of an enemy, but the world
seldom or never before witnessed
the wanton destruction of the mon
'uments of q nations greatness, by
its own citizens. The column in the
Place Vendome, Paris, recently
destroyed by order of the Com
mune government, was con
structed it is said, out of cannons
captured in the campaigns of the
first Napoleon, and had inscribed on
it the names of all his victories. 1t
was II hundred and forty-three
feet high, and surmounted by a
statue Of Napoleon [. twelve feet
high.

RAPID.-John E. Leet recently
came to this State, we believe
that is, about five OF six months
ago. Since that time, he located at
Abbeville in the Parish of Vermil-
lion, and purchased and became
editor of the Meridional a news
paper published at that place.
About three weeks ago he was mar
ried, in New Orleans. Since that,
to him, happy event, he has
changed the name of his paper to
the Abbeville Flag; and he has
been appointed the official printer
for his parish. Mr.. Leet is evident
ly a stirring man; and we wish
him, his new wife, his new paper,
and the parish he is trying to make
new, all the prosperity which energy
like his should bring.
