Beyond the Mississippi !

Thousands have already gone, and thousands
more are turning their eyes towards new homes in
the fertile West. To those going to Missouri, Kan
sas, Nebraska, Colorado, Utah, Wyoming, Nevada,
Oregon or California, we recommend cheap, safe,
quick and direct route, via st. Louis, the Mis-
souri, Pacific Railroad, which runs its fine Day
Coaches and Pullman Sleepers from St Louis to
principal points in the West, 'OithOut change We
believe that the Missouri Pacific Railroad has the
best track and the finest and safest equipment of
any line west of the Mississippi and its connections
with other roads further West are prompt and re-
liable. The Texas connection of this road is now
completed and passengers are offered frst-class,
al-rail route from ST. Louis to Texas, either over
the Missouri, Kansas & Texas r. r., Uid SefdtiG,
or over the Atlantic s. Pacific r. r. via ViIlita.

Base Ball.-The game of base ball played
on Friday afternoon last, between the Western
Union Telegraph Nine of Cleveland, and the
Croghans of this place, was q spirited engage
ment, but resulted in too many runs to indi-
cate the best kind of play on either side. The
score stood As for Croghans. to Sc for the
Clevelanders. The Croghans took the lead on
the start, at the commencement of the 9Th in
ming the game stood in their favor SO to l3.
But on that inning the Clevelanders showed
some good play, cut off tie Croghans with a
single run, and added l3 talIiss to their own
score, on the 7th and Sth they increased their
score, until the Croghans led by oniy 3. But
q score Of six for the Croghans on the 9Th, and
q goose egg for Cleveland, brought the game
to an abrupt termination with the score as
above. A pleasant social party at Shomo's
Hall, was gwen for the visitors in the even
ing. Our boys are under invitation to play
return game at Cleveland.

No use of any longer taking the large, re-
pulsive, gripping, drastic, and nauseous pills,
composed Of crude, and bulky ingrediments,
and put up in cheap wood or paste-board box
es. when we can, by careful application Of
chemical science, extract all the cathartic and
other medicinal properties from the most
valuable roots and herbs, and concentrate thtm
into minute Granule, scarcely larger than
a mustard seed, that can be readily swaI-
lowed by those of the most sensitive stomachs
and fastidious tastes. Each Of Dr. PIerce's
Pleasant PurgatiVe Pellets represents in
q most concentrated form, as much cathartic
power as is embodied in any OF the large pills
found for sale in the drug shops. From their
wonderful cathartic power, in proportion to
their size, people who have not tried them are
apt to suppose that they are harsh or drastic
in effect, but such is not the cane, the different
active medicinal principles Of which they are
composed being so haTmonized and modified,
one by the Others, as to produce a most
searching and thorough, yet gently and
kindly operating cathartic. Twenty-Five
