The Greeley Monument.

AS a member of the Greeley Monu-
ment Association, I respectfully request
the press and the people of the North
west to send to me such sums as they
may wish to contribute to that object.
It would be best to send the money by
check on some Chicago bank, by Post
office order, or draft on New York. All
such sums received will be acknowledged
in the newspapers of Chicago. 1t is
hoped that every newspaper Will contrib
ute something, and that some one who
honors the name of Mr.. Greeley viii
take up a collection-be it ever small
in every town and city in the Northwest,
and forward the amount as soon as pos
sible. Probably no man ever contrib
uted so much to the settlement and the
prosperity of the Northwest as Mr..
Greeley. Her people will be glad to
contribute their full proportion to honor
his memory.

Can any Medicine do More ]

The art of changing the base metals into gold
has not been discovered, but the happy results of
a discovery infinitely more important are familiar
to tho community, and have been SO for the past
twenty years. To exchange debility for vigor,
sickness for health, apathy for energy, gloom for
cheerfulness, is a much more desirable operation
than to transmute lead into the root of all evil.
And this is what Hostetter'sS Stomach Bitters &C
complish, and have been accomplishing daily, ever
since their introduction. Dyspepsia, biliousness,
nervous affections, constipation, intermittent fe-
vers, rheumatism, sick headache and general de-
bility arc no longer the bug-bears that they were
a fifth Of a century ago. The Bitters, taken as a
protective medicine, prevent them, and taken as a
remedy cures them, and the people know it. Hence
their overshadowing reputation and enormous
sale. The fame of the great vegetable specific is
ever on the march, and at q pace that no competi-
tor can live. Tt is to-day the foremost medicine of
its class in the civilized world. Every now and
then attem pts are made to rival it, and sometimes
a nostrum concocted in the idle hope of sharing its
popularity, has q brief squirt of apparent success.
But it is all illusion. One by one they sink like
stones in the sea, while the great tonic, whose
celebrity has been the cause Of these blind ven
lures, continues to ride on the topmost wave of
public favor, unapproached and unapproachable.

Poisoned to Denth.

A healthy liver secretes each day about two
and a half pounds of bile, which contains a
great amount of waste material taken from
the blood. When the liver becomes torpid and
congested, it fails to eliminate this vast
amount of noxious substance, which, there
fore, remains to poison the blood and be con-
veyed to every part of the system. What
must be the condition of the blood when it is
receiving and and retaining each day two and
a half pounds of poison Nature tries to
work off this poison through other channels
and organs-the kidneys, lungs, skin, etc. F.;
but these organs become overtaxed in per-
forming this labor in addition to their natural
functions, and cannot long Withstand the
pressure, but become varioasly diseased.
The brain, which is the great electrical CEN
ter of all vitality, is unduly stimulated by the
unhealthy blood which passes to it from the
heart, and it fails to perform its office health
fully. Hence the symptoms of bile poisoning,
keep the mind on any subject, impairment of
memory, dizzy, sleepy, or nervous feelings,
gloomy forebodings and irritability of temper.
The blood itself being diseased, as it forms the
sweat upon the surface of the skin, is so lrr1-
tating and poisonous that it produces discol-
ored brown spots, pimples, blotches and other
eruptions, sores, boils, carbuncles and scrofu-
lous tumors. The stomach, bowels, and other
organs spoken of, cannot escape becoming af-
fected, sooner or later, and costiveness, piles,
dropsy, dyspepsia, diarrhea, female weakness,
and many other forms of chronic disease, are
among the necessary results. As a remedy for
all these manifestations of disease, DIR. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery is positively I'M
equaled. BY it the liver and stomach are
changed to m active and healthy state, the
appetite regulated and restored, the blood and
secretions thoroughly purified and enriched,
and the whole system renovated and built uT
new. Sold by all first-class Druggists. 60;

A Washington dispatch of the Sd inst. says
The monotony of Investigations into the Loui-
siana election was varied to-day by the testi-
States Supervisor under the enforcement act
at the last election in the State. He testified
unblushingly that he stuffed the ballot-boxes,
forged affidavits, and took false oaths in the
Kellogg interest at the late election. In an
swer to a question by MIR. Carpenter as to
whether he considered himself a corrupt man,
he replied that he was in the same boat with
other politicians and generally went with them
in measures, believing that trickery and dis
honesty III politics is exousable. Mr.. Carpenter
asked him if he did not regard himself in duty
bound to tell the truth when he was under

IT is said that Mr. Henry Ward Beecher

IT is said that Mr.. Henry Ward Beecher
earns $45, COOS year-$25, 600 from his
church, $40, 900 salary as nominal editor
of the Christian Union, and $40, 600 adj
ditiona1 income from the New York
| Led0er and his occasional lectures. Mr..
Beecher probably accepts this large sum
of money as an Involvement for the en-
largement of his profession. Ambitious
young men who contemplate entering
the ministry should take time to con-
| slider, however, in simple Justice to them
selves, that where there is one minister
who earns $45, 900 a year, there are
forty-fve who do mo- earn a thousand a

there is a formidable combination of intererts
to lobby their extension through Congress.
The royalty alone has yielded several million
dollars, which were divided among companies
whose patents cover the essential points of the
machine. These companies charge the Ameri-
can people one-half more for machines than
the rates at which precisely the same articles
are sold in Europe. The Bulletin tells that for
a series of years the public has paid from $50
to $50 apiece for machines which never cost
more than from SIS to SO each, and which could
be sold for $15 to 800 each, and leave a hand
