How TO Use fIercury.-Never put mercury
into your stomach. The proper place for it is the
thermometer or barometer. There it will inform
you of the changes of temperature, or forewarn
you of the coming of storWs, thus indicating the
times and seasons when it is necessary to reinforce
the system with Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, in
order to ward off the ailments which peculiar con
ditions of the ements produce. When the quick
silver suddenly falls several degrees of Fahrenheit,
as it often does at this season, fortfy the system
against the depressing influence of this sudden alb
straction of heat by dose of the most genial and
wholesome of all invigorants Or if the indicator
Of your barometer points to stormy, brace up for
those damp, driving gales which sure to search

SPILLMAE's TRUssEs AND BRACEs.-There
are few manufacturers who can say with
our townsman, Mr.. H. Spillman, that the
excellence of their manufactures has
elected the unqualified commendation and
approval of an entire class of professional
men like that of the medical faculty ofNew
Orleans He has certificates proving this
fact, and it should be sufficient evidence
that his trusses and braces are the best
made, for no profession, SO able to judge
could be SO unanimous unless the fact was
indisputable. Mr.. .SpiIlman is not only the
manufacturer of these instruments, but the
inventor, and of course more capable than
any one else of applying them. Persons 50
afflicted as to require them, could do no
better than call upon him. See his card in

The following communication from Hon
j. r. Beckwith, United States attorney
for the district Of Louisiana, was directed
to the United States supervisor of cleo

ton to the powers and duties of United

directed to it:
UNITED STATES ATTORNEYS OFFICE,
District of Louisiana, ,
New Orleans, November5 5, l872.)
SIR-The act of the supervisor OF election
in his refusal to allow the United States SUI
pervisors of election to be present at the
canvass of the entire vote cast at the cleo
ton yesterday, and his attempt to limit
YOUR authority to detached canvass of the
vote for electors and Representatives, in
Congress, subjects him to the severe penal
ties provided by the acts Of Congress APP
proved May 81, 1870, and February Is,
1871. Your attention is called to the fifth,
sixth and seventh sections of the latter act
If the supervisor (State) refuses to allow
you to be present at the canvass OF the votes
which he may undertake when his pretended
CdEN dSS lOI GIcGGO1S Ctl1O 4GCpLSSC41LoOlNO 90
in Congress is completed, secure warrant
from the United States commissioner in
your parish for his immediate arrest under
the tenth section of the act of 1871, and IT
you are unable to arrest the supervisor re-
port at once at this Office the fact, together
with the names Of all persons who aided
the supervisor in resisting process, and
warrant will issue from the court here, with
troops enough to arrest all parties. IT, after
once being arrested and released on
bail, or otherwise, the State supervisor
again refuses to allow you to be present at
the canvass, he is guilty of a new offense,
for which he should be re-arrested. / shall
present indictments to the grand jury
against all supervisors who see tit to act as
you report the supervisor of your parish to
have done, when, trust, the punishment
they will receive at the hands of the court
will prevent repetition Of the crime at
future elections.
Very respectfully,

Local intelligence.

Coroner AUCrloEEEnIxG.-C P.
Creagh was yesterday called on to view
Che body of dead man at No. 70 Dryades
street. The place was small one, but was
sufficiently large for deceased to pursue his
avocation Of shoomaking His name was
NJ. Niemuller, tttyfve years old, and he
had lived in the house for four years. The
landlord claimed 81 for rent due, and said
that the corpse must not be moved until ne
was paid This did not interfere with the
coroner, but perhaps caused him to think of
mans inhumanity to man. AS deceased
had no kith or kin and none to care for
him dead, Mr.. Creagh improyised an auction
instanter, and sold the few articles in the
place Bidding was lively and in few
minutes $40 were in the treasury. This
money was Immediately used to procure a
good coffin, hearse and two carriages, con-
seauently poor Nemuller was buried de-
gently. We saw the funeral passing down
Canal street, and thought of the great
chasm existing between the characters OF
Coroner Creagh and the landlord.
