SUCH filthy and profuse nasal discharge.
Where does it all come from? The little glands
in the tissue lining the chambers of the nose
are liberated and diseased, drawing from the
system its corruption. 1t is an outlet for its
impurities. Stop this discharge by using the
many advertised strong liquids snuffs and in
halants, and you make An outlet in the lungs
or elsewhere. The disease is translated to an
other locality more fatal The rational way to-
cure is to correct the system by using DIR
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery which tones
it up, cleanses the blood and heals the diseased
glands by specific influence upon them, and
to assist, use DR.. Sages Catarrh Remedy with
DR.. Pierce's Nasal Douche, the only way to
reach the upper an back cavities where the
discharge comes from No danger from this

AN official statement from the Inter-
nal Revenue Department shows that on
May 2, the quantity of spirits in bond in
the United States was S,672, All gallons.
This would give rather more than gal
lon to every adult male in the Union,
and, considering that the oaily produc-
ton amounts to 2l7,682 gallons, it is
pretty clear that whatever else we may
have scarcity of, it will not be whisky.
In fact, the rate of production assumes
positively alarming dimensions, when we
consider that it is equivalent to 76, 49,
$50 gallons per annum. Making due
allowance for our largo export trade in
distilled spirits, and for the stimulated
production due to the increase of duty
on the first of August, it is pretty clear
that, in spite of all efforts to the contrary,
the national consumption of this class of
intoxicating fluids is greatly on the in
crease,
A New York working man proposes a
"Married Working Mans association -
for the purpose of protecting that class
from the young men in the unions. He
insists that among them are some of the
poorest workmen in the unions, and as
they have no wives and families to sup
port, they care little about work. 1t il
these men who run these strikes, anc
the men who have the most at stake arr
compelled to follow them, when in som'
! cases stoppage OF work means extrem,
privation and suffering.

AN ALLEGED SwlNDLER ARREsTED.-During
the March term of the grand jury of the
Hastings Court q true bill for felony was
found against T. D. Kidder. The specific
charge against him was a felonious attempt
to defraud the National Freednmn's Savings
and Trust Company out Of the sum of SIS
by means Of Il check. This check bears date
of April lst, 1871. 1t is made payable to the
order of &. II. Gibson, is signed by G. G.
Handy. and is endorsed by G. II. Gibson and
+. G. kidder.
Subsequent to the action of the grand jury
information was received in this city that the
accused was in Wilmington, or some part OF
North Carolina. Upon this information a
reqlisition was issued by his EXcellency
Governor Walker on the Governor of North
Carolina, and Detective Winston Rogers was
deputed as an agent on the prt of Virginia
to receive the prisoner. This officer pro,
ceeded to North Carolina, and having nc.
complished his mission returned to this cit.
on Sunday, having kidder in charge. /
Yesterday morning the accused appeared
before Police Justice White and was re.
nlanded to Jail to await the action of the
Hastings Court. His case will probably
come up in that court at the conclusion ol
the trial of DR.. n. 4. II. Goddin.

intent of the parties, rather than by the tech
nicat and rigid rules Of the common law
"ln this case there is nothing to prevent the
application of these principles, nothing to
preclude the court from declaring That this
contract was entered into with reference to
Confederate States treasury notes. and to be
fulfilled in that medium according to the
real understanding of the parties. As, how
ever, these notes have ceased to circulate, the
question arises as TO the best mode of adjust
ing the rights Of the parties. The court is
authorized, under the statute, TO award a
just compensation for the value Of
the property sold, if under all the
circumstances of the case it thinks the fair
value OF the property will be the most just
measure of recovery. This mode Of adjust
ment i'll cases founded upon sales of property
has received the sanction of this court in
several cases not yet reported. Tn the present
case itaccOmplishes the ends of justice to all
the parties. The vendor, having received
the, entire amount of the bonds, has, OF
course, no interest in the question. The
assignee can have no substantial ground of
complaint, as his purchase was made with
Confederate funds, and he will now receive
sum largely ineXcess of the value Of his in
restmcnt. The yendee having paid fue-
sicuts Of the amount agreed by him to be
paid. and being in arrears for the remaining
onc-strH, should IN justice be required to pay
its fair value"
The decree of the court below was reversed
with costs to the appellant, and the cause was
remandcd to it to be referred to commits
Sioncr to "asccrtain ard report the fair raIue
Of the ,chole tract Of land an United States
currency at The date Of the contract, and that
Il decree be rendered against the appellee
for one-sirth Of such value, with in
terest thereon from the 1st June, 1863, (the
date of the contract,) subject to u credit for
such payments, If any, as may have been
made in Confederate currency according to
its nominal amount. and for further proceed
ings in accordance with the foregoing
opinion.
