Is the only article thus combined, fastened and

This article needs recommendation, for it re-

most simple easily adjusted and perfect for its use
euer introduced into the market.
All physicians recommend its use, and one
whose name is known and respected on both sides
of the ocean, buys and gives away large numbers
of them to his patients, declaring that most var
icose veins, weak and crippled limbs can be traced
directly to the stopping of the circulation in the

Being made entirely of elastic it never strings
or wrinkles like cloth, but is as fiat and smooth
after wearing for months as when first used, and
yields with every motlon, thus giving entire ease
to the wearer.
THE PROTECTOR ALONE Is WORTH THE

1t is unnecessary to remove the stockings from

Some Man Who Did His Duty.''

1t is really refreshing at last to get to an
officer in command of a fortress who has be-
haved like brave soldier. Excepting sub
Lieutenant Archer, who is said to have
"done his duty" we have not yet, out of ten
Judgments, come to one which did not blame
more or less severely the commanding officers
generally because they gave it too soon, and
always because, without an exception, when
they did give in, they handed over their guns
and munitions Of war intact to the enemy.
Lieutenant Colonel Taillant, however, who
commanded at Pfalsbourg, was a brilliant
exception; not only did he hold out with his
little garrison of 200 men for four months.
Notwithstanding repeated bombaraments and
a large portion of the town having been
burned, but when at last starvation rendered
defence any longer impossible, he destroyed
every cannon, and rifle, and grain of powder,
leaving nothing but the bare walls and the
empty granaries to an enemy with whom he
made no terms whatever, but simply, when
he had reduced matters to this condition,
opened the gates and let them walk in. For
this heroic conduct not only is Lieutenant
Colonel Taillant highly applauded by the
commission, but he receives the Cross OF
commander Of the Legion of Honor, and OBJ
tains honorable mention and decoration for
the officers who served under him.--Londor,
Times.

How Nsarscilies was Saved.

The achievement of the United States
squadron at Marseilles, France, is causing a
good deal of comment abroad. That city and
thousand merchant ships were actually
saved from destruction by the discipline,
skill, and intrcpidity of the officers and men.
The squadron, consisting of the Wabash,
Congress, Brooklyn, Plymouth, Shenandoah,
Junlata, and Wachusette, under command of
Admiral Alden, lay in the Napoleon Basin,
amid innumerable merchantmen of every
description and from every nation. Shortly
after midnight an explosion startled the city,
followed by fire and dense clouds of heavy
smoke, which issued from an Italian ship just
arrived from Philadelphia with a cargo of
petroleum. The nature of the danger soon
became evident, and it seemed impossible to
prevent the spreading of the fire from ship to
ship, as they lay in such mass, and gen.
eral cCntagratiOn seemed imminent, for the
houses extend down to the wharf on every
side. No city of France has the means to
eXtingllish great fire, and hence the people
gathered, contemplating the scene in panic
stricken, fascinated horror.
Presently well-manned boat came from
the part of the basin Illuminated by the blaze,
and pulled directly toward the burning ship.
This was soon followed by another, then a
third, ten, twenty, all the boats of the Amer
lean squadron. A moment later men were
seen on the deck of the burning ship. The
silence of the people on shore was such that
they could hear, through the smothered roar
and crackle of fire, the words of command
and blows of axes. The people were think
ing of the hundreds of barrels of petroleum
below, and its possible escape on shore and
communication to other ships, perhaps others
with petroleum, and in Imagination con-
ceived the whole surface of the basin covered
with burning oil. Presently the burning
vessel began to settle. She had been scut-
tied and her cargo was now under water, the
deck being level with the surface. The dam
ger from the escape ofburning petroleum was
still imminent, when line of boats, dashed
together stern and stern, was seen pulling
away, and as the file Strengthened out the
burning ship moved also, and was slowly
towed out to the bay by over two hundred
well-manned oars. TWAS only then that an
immense cheer broke from the thousands of
people, who felt inexpressible gratitude for
the salvation of the city.

TIE Nation is one of the papers which sup
ported the so-called Liberal Republican"
movement at Cincinnati, but it could not
stand the nomination of Greeley, and has not
hesitated to express its opinions pretty plain
ly. The following remarks are from its edi-
ton of this week:
Gle Greeley is neither revenue reformer,
civil service retormcr, nor any other kind OF
reformer that people now care about; and,
as to uncertainty, the very wind has, since
the establishment of the Weather Bureau,
become more reliable than he. The result is,
and the history of the last month shows it,
he has not only not drawn to himself any of
the reputable discomfort of the Republican
party, but he has driven it back into the
ranks repentant and Inundated. He stands
surrounded, as far as the Republican North
is concerned, in the main by soreheads' and
blatherskites. His great, and, indeed, only
reliance is the Democrats of the North and
South, but especially of the South and he
therefor, presents himself to the Republican
party as simply the visible sign of a renewed
attempt on the part of old Copperheads and
rebels to Get possession of the Government.
What are honest men to do now
Well, if there is nothing else offered, if the
Democratic Convention commits the absurdi-
tv of raising the old white hat as its stand
ard at Baltimore, the only thing for Republic
cans of our way of thinking to do is to choose
he less Of tco eriis, and cote TO, Gen. Grant.
We expect no improvement in the Admins
tration from him; we do not look at his
hands for the removal Of any of the existing
abuses; we know of no answer to any OF the
weighty and reasonable objections made to
his administration but we do know, as near
as may be, what he will do; we know, at
least, the worst he will do. The probabili-
ties are that, the temptations connected with
denomination over, he will on many points
change for the better. Moreover-and this
is the most important point of all--if he is re-
elected, there will be no general redistribution
of offices and no financial disturbance. What
Greeley will do, and what the motley crew
whom he would lead to Washington would
do, nobody knows"
