Il regular habit of body is absolutely es-
sential to physical health and clearness of
the intellect. Nor is this all. Beauty of
person cannot co-exist with an unnatural
condition of the bowels. A free passage of
the refuse matter of the system through
these natural waste pipes, is as necessary to
the purity of the body as the free passage of
the offal of city through its sewers is ne
cessary to the health of its inhabitants.
Indigestion is the primary cause of most

We see almost daily accounts of the ex-
plosion of Coal or Kerosene Oil. Why peo-
pie will use it we cannot comprehend. The
nOn-eXplosive Petro Oil, sold by our old
friend, Brown, will NOT explode. If you
spill it on you and set it on fire, it will sure
ly burn, but all you have.to do is to blow it
out. If you spill lightning whiskey or
cologne on your clothes, ana set it on fire,
it will certainly burn. and if you take too
much of it (whiskey) sinternally, it will
eventually burn both soul and body. We
do not say this in the way of putting" but

WASHINGTON, Dec. %, 1871.

'
Judge Busted, Republican of A iabama,
was examined to-day by the Ku klux Com
missioners. He said he did not believe that
any such organization as ku Klux existed
in Alabama, aud he thought that person
and properly were as safe there as in any
State in the Union. Having been ques-
toned as to the testimony of Rev. Mr..
Laken, parts of which were read to him, be
said it was entirely untrue. Laken had
represented that thirty three indictments
had been foand and tried in Busteed's court
tor violation of the Civil Rights bill, but the
truth was only one indictment had been
found and that had not yet been tried. In
reply to question, he said he knew a man
named Willard Warner, who applied for
exemption from jury duty in his court in
the year 1867 or 1868 on the ground thathe,
Warner. was Senator from the State of
Ohio at that time.
