CAUTIoN.--Every genuine box Of DR..
McLane's Liver Pills bears the signature
of Fleming Bros, Pittsburg Pa, and
their private U. s. stamp. "Take no
other" The market is full of limitations.
1t is the popular verdict that people who
have been accustomed to the use of Bit
tiers and Cordials are obliged, eventually,
to resort to McLane's Liver Pills for per-
manent relief. 5-lGw6m

VISIT TO UNION CoUNTY.--In COM
pany with Judge Bross We visited Anna
and Jonesboro on Wednesday last.
Col. Wood, one Of the commissioners of
the Southern Illinois Insane Asylum, in
vited US to visit the building with him,
and courteously conducted us through it,
explaining the intention Of the commits.
sionersl and in many ways placing US I'M
der obligations. This will be one Of the
most complete buildings of the kind in
the country, and we are sure the brick and
stone masonry and other work which has
thus far been done on the building could
not be improved upon. One wing of the
building has been nearly completed, and
work on the main building will be com.
menced Immediately.
At Anna we met DR.. Harwood and
visited his drug store. The Doctor is one
OF the most enterprising citizens Of the
little rival of Jonesboro and is q whole
souled gentleman, q Democrat with Gree.
ley tendencies and druggist thoroughly
posted in his business.
We also met Lawyer Inscore, who only
has one failing, and that is a stubborn
persstency in clinging to the fortunes Of
Mr.. Grant. Inscore knows he ought not
to be on that side of the political fence
but he has got into the habit Of staying
there and ne don't want to be rash in
moving to the other side.
The Anna pottery was, as matter of
course, illuminated by our presence, and
We were shown through it by Mr.. Kirk
patrick, who explained the process Of mud
moulding to our satisfaction. This pot
terry is one Of the institutions Of Southern
Illinois. The proprietors, by their energy
and skin, have given to it wide reputa-
ton, and their wares are in great demand
In every part Of the country.

The SUDDEN DISAPPEARANCE from
Cairo Of Mr.. VIM. Bauman has created
considerable comment. 1t is feared by his
friends that he may have committed sui.
eide or, worse still, have taken to drink.
When last seen on Monday morning, he
had a downcast look and was walking at
brisk pace towards the court house.
These facts, taken in connection with the
additional fact that he was observed to
cross the street at the custom house and
bite his finger nails, are thought to be con.
elusive evidence of suicidal intent. The
deceased-we take it for granted that Bsu
is desd-was man of considerable ability
in his profession, but having been Elm.
ployed for long time in the government
ofices'at Washington, had q peculiar aver.
sion to the truth. Peace to his ashes.

One who knew Lap!ace told mo thas he once
said:

astronomer was much surprised when at once

most devoted domestic characters. Sho loved

Doctor OF Philosophy.
A friend Of mine, who was with her when she
received the Russian degree, tells me that Mrs.
someryi1Ie exclaimed: "Dear mo, / hope they
won't make me ridiculous by calling me Doctor"
She was q perpetual distress to ion-hunters,

giving grounds for any wonderful story: Among

suited her. She slept away her last moments,

Among the most striking careers Of tho times
has been that Of Judah P. Benjamin, who long
represented Louisiana in the United States Sem
ate, subsequently became the leading member Of
the Confederate Cabinet, and, after the close Of
the war, removed his residence to London
He procured naturalization in England and,
upon complying with the requisite conditions,
began practice in the Westminster and Lin
coins Inn Courts. His progress has been
so rapid that, although he has only been at
the English bar FIVE or Elk years, he
has received the honor Of "Qaeen's coun-
sell" and assumed the traditional :'silk gown, y :,
thus taking his place among the upper grade OF
barris.ers. It is now intimated Id some Of the
English papers TINT Mr.. Benjamin is among the
foremost in the line Of those who are Likely to
be raised to the Bench within the next few
years. It would be curious to see an e1-Unlted
States Senator and an e1-Confederate Secretary
of State sitting beside Sir 4. Cockburn on the
Queens Bench, with patched Wig and
er1nine gown. Mr.. Benjamin ia a man
of brilliant ability. aB an advocate, and
he sat in our national councils; his speech on
retiring from the Senate, just before the war,
was one OF thrilling eloquence, not soon to 30
forgotten by those who heard it. He le OF He 4
