Considerable has been lately said In
medical journals concerning the value Of
milk as a remedial agent in certain di-
seases. An interesting article upon this
subject lately appeared in the London

which neutralizes this malarous poison in the
blood, and stimulates the liver to expel il from The
body, As 1t should, it does cure this aaHctiag
disorder with perfect certainty And it does more.
or rather does what is of more service to those sub
(ect to this infection. If taken in season il expols
1t from the system it is absorbed and thus keeps
those who use it free from its attacks; keeps the
system in health although exposed to the disease
consequently it not only cures, but protects FROM
the great variety of affections which are induced
by this malignant influence, such as Remittent
Fever, Chill Fever, Dumb, or Masked Aguc,
Periodical Headache, or Bilious Headache Bilious
fevers, Neuralgia, Rheumatism, Gout Blindness,
Toothacho, E,rache Catarrh, Asthma, Palpita-
tons, Painful Affections of the Spleen Mysteries
Collie, Paralysis, and Painful Affections of the
Stomach and Bowels, all Of which, when arising
from this cause, will be found to assume more or
less the intermittent type. This "AauR CuRB"
removes the cause of these deraryements and cures
the disease.
This it accomplshes by stimulating the excro-
tories to expel the virus from the system: and
these organs by degrees become habted to do this
their Office of their accord. Hence arises what
we term aoc'in,atation. Time may accomplish the
same end, but often life is not long enough, or is
sacrificed in the attempt, while this "AouR CuRR"
does it at once, and with safety. We have great
reason to believe this &c suror as we'll as safer
remedy for the whole class of diseases which are
caused by the miasmatic infection, than any other
which has been discovered; and it has still another
important advantage to the public, which is, that
1t is cheap Us well good.

CINCINNATI.


CINCINNATI, January "a. An investi'
CATION Of the charges against detectives
Carr and Orr, of this city, for being con-
nected with thieves in the robbery OF
several houses last summer, during the
absence Of the owners, and which they
had been employed to guard, was com
meneed before Mayor Davis last even
ing. Two of the thieves are in the pen
etentiary at Columbus, and another on
his death-bed, in the worx-house here,
made affidavit that these detectives
planned the robbery, and that the goods
we're taken to their (the detectives
houses and held in expectation of a re-
ward for their recovery. This plan was
only partially successful, SO that only q
small portion Of the stolen goods found
their way back to the owners. The bal
ance, it is claimed, we're disposed of by
the detectives by sale or used in their
own houses. The thieves took wagons
and carted off furniture, clothing, ETC.,
and they claim that the detectives we're
angry because they did not tare up the
carpets and take them also. The state
ment Of the burglars is partially corrob-
Grated by other witnesses, and the gen
eral impression is very unfavorable as TO
the innocence Of Messrs. Carr and Orr,
although they claim it viii be proven in
the investigation beyond all doubt.

POPULAR EDUCATION.

We are not disposed TO bubble about
details with the friends Of popular educs-
ton, but the system proposed by Judge
Houk, Of Knox, comes nearer TO the
modern idea, which is founded upon the
experience-and we might say on exper-
iments-of older States, than anything
yet suggested or devised. Perhaps the
machinery of county board is unneces-
sary; we will admit that il is, provided
that the county superintendent is fit for
his position in every respect, and that
his powers are restricted and well defined.
But we are decidedly Of opinion that the
system should be imperative and operate
alike in every county. The weather.
counties are interested in educating the
masses all over the State Widely difiused
intelligence is the basis Of liberal senti-
meut and the introduction Of skilled labor
and capital by which all would be bene-
fitted. To prove the unity and harmony OF
a State embracing such variety OF eli
mate resources, productions and indi-
vidual interests as Tennessee, requires
some common starting point and rally
ing ground on which all are agreed. II
we cannot be of one mind on the subject
of education, the future will be rife with
preiudices, sectional jealousies and par
tisan legislation to sap the foundations
of peace and prosperity. The education
of the poor is essential to the protection
of the rich and independent classes, for
education of the mind destroys the false
distinctions of society, abolishes self-ccn-
stituted caste, and makes all men equal
in proportion to merit and capacity.
The laws of the land afford certain
protection to person and property, and
in return can, with justice, demand o
certain tax to be applied to the necessi-
ties of society and the expenses OF gov
eminent. One of the necessities of So
ciety is liberal education, for thereby its
humblest children are moulded into good
citizens fit to serve their country in civil
life or in the time of war, with efficiency
in proportion to their intelligence. 1t
is Well-known fact that crimes are
committed in proportion to ignorance,
and that morality keeps pace with edu-
cation. In this view of the question 1t
is economy for the State to see that
every child within her borders receives
at least good common school educa-
ton. This can no more be done effec1
lively by a county system than in a
time of war could the various counties
having each military system and little
war department of its own repel well
organized invader. We will never favor
any system which permits the children
of one section to grow up in ignorance
aud superstition while in more favored
localities they may enjoy the benefits of
select schools.

the name given to powerful corpora

The name was adopted evidently with the
purpose Of afferding ready definition OF
the object ofthe association. The "Socie-

great and profitable enterprise, Ithad

assisted materially in the construction Of
railways and the promotion OF mining
schemes. Among other enterprises IN
which it was notably interested were the
government loan on account Of the Rus
sian war, the Grand Central Railway
Company, and the General Omnibus
Company Of Paris. At one time, it adj
vanced 250000,000 francs, aud at an-
other time 3T5,O00,OOO francs, to the
French Government Its business was
so great in 1855 that it declared a divl-
