The PoIsoNMoNGERs who advertise
compounds of Fluid Fire and pungent
alkalies as "balsamic medicines, >" " safe
and harmless tonics," and "genial in
MIGRANTS" are worthy of being classed
with the old Barnegat wreckers who
kindled DECEPTIVE beacons, in order to
decoy mariners to inevitable DEATH But
time came when the lures of the coast
bandits failed, and time has come
when the vendors of FILTERED Alcohol
fail to impress the reading public with IL
belief in their fictions.
1t is due to that conscientious and
able physician, DIR. Joseph Walker, of
California to say that he has largely
contributed to this desirable end, by
providing the world with Tonic Cor
receive and Anti-Febrile Vegetable prep
aration, which accomplishes all that is
mendaciously promised on behalf of the
alcoholic nostrums. His CALIFORNIA
VINEGAR BrrTERs, prepared from botanic
productions, now for the first time en-
ployed in the pharmacy of civilization,
is the leading tonic in every State and
Territory of the Union. The fact that
this wonderful elixir contains no alcohol,
no mineral, no dangerous element, is
one of the causes of its immense popu-
larity; another is that AS IA stomachic
invigorant, blood-purifier, Alternative,
anti-spasmodica and anti-bilious medicine,
it is as far ahead of every other prepare
ton as Temperance is ahead of Drunk
enness. III Com.

During the cold season the hair is cut

cold winds not only produce buzzing and
roaring in them, but often injure the

vital part exposed to the extreme

SINCE the reduction of newspaper
postage to one cent for every two
ounces, or fraction thereof, great
many papers which are placed in the
postoffices never reach their destination,
and there has been some complaint in
consequence. Persons wrap up two or
three papers, frequently weighing four
or six ounces, attach cent stamp, and
deposit the packages in the postoffice,
and that is as far as they get. They
might as well address them to the
Shah of Persia and drop them in the
office without any stamp at all. They
would be just as likely to reach their
destination. Uncle Sam agrees to carry
two ounces of printed matter for cent,
and not four ounces.

The report of Commissioner Drum
mond, of the Land Office, on the Sol
diers' Additional Bounty bill, shows
that ont of all the lands granted to sol
diers since the establishment of the
Government less than one per cent. have
been settled by them or their heirs,
while spectators secured the warrants
Mt rates which realized virtually no
benefit to the soldiers. The statistics
collated by Commissioner Douglass also
show that the bounty bill proposed last
session would have taken all the arabic
lands now held by the Government, of
which it is safe to assume ninety-nine
per cent. would have gone into the pos
session of spectators at merely nominal
rates, while the prices to actual settlers
would have been raised.

The Battle OF Bucna vIsta-Cen. faylor's
Account OF it.

Judge Butler, colleague, in the Sen
ate, of Mr.. Calhoun, calling to pay his re-
spects to the President, begged him to
describe the manner in which the battle
of Buena Vista was fought. His broth
CT, Pierce Butler, commanding the Pal
metto regiment, and a very gallant Of.
ficer, fell in the battle, and the Judge was
naturally anxious to learn the particu-
Jars of that desperate contest.
"Well, well, judge, you want to know
how the thing was done. Come and
dine with me to-day and LII tell
YOU all know about it"
Judge Butler was a hasty impetuous
man, and the words flowed from his
mouth in torrent whenever he had oc-
casion to speak. He was all impatient
during the dinner, and the moment they
were alono he brought up the subject Of
the battle.

Cause Of The Recent z. lures.

1t is reported that the troubles of the
warehouse and security company arc
due to its relations with some Of its
directors. Francis Skiddy and Shepard
Candy, both heavy sugar importers,
were directors of the company and also
directors OF the Missouri, Kansas and
Texas railroad company. Skiddy and
Candy obtained loans from the security
company besides large amount of
paper in circulation which was about to
mature, and if some Of the loans which
it made to Skiddy and Gardy were taken
up the company could not meet its obi
cations, and was thus forced to suspend
and await the action of its creditors. The
Secretary of the NJ. X. & 7. railroad
said the company had not gone to pro-
test, that its cour ons had and would be
paid. The company were under obliga-
lions to the warehouse and security
company, and the rumor that there were
any other relations probably arose from
the fact that two prominent directors
of the warehouse company were embar-
raised. 1t is believed among some tha;
the losses will fall mainly upon Havana
merchants and Cuban planters. Mr..
Guion, director of the warehouse and
security for the company says the assets
of the company amount to about e., $780,
600; liabilities sl,s00,000. The Mis-
souri,, Kansas and Texas railway owed
the company sl,000,000, one-half of
which was secured by bonds Of the road
and notes of the Land Grant Railway
g. Trust Co., and the other halt by per-
sonal guaranty of five railroad directors.
Guion thought that the loan which will
mature next month, would be good
within a year at least. The warehouse
company also made loan Of 5000, 900
TO the New Orleans, Mobile & Texas
railroad company, whose road is not
completed. This loan maturcd last
spring, and remains unpaid, but it is
secured by the personal guaranty of two
persons connected with the road, and
Guion believed the warehouse company
would eventually obtain the money. He
further said the company made loan
of $4,000 10 the West Wisconsin rail
road, which is secured by bonds Of the
road and the personal guaranty of one
of its officers. This loan was good but
had not matured, and the same was
true Of loans made to several other rail
road companies, whose names he could
not remember. Guion was unable to
say whether the suspension Of the ware
house company would be temporary or
final, remarkin. that this would depend
entirely upon tho decision Of Its cred
itors.

Indeed (as Henry Clay said on a me-
n orable occasion) al would be glad to
zee it." Capt. Cutler is nothing TO me,
nor am anything to him, in this con-
nection. l have, upon request only,
candidly discussed this vexed question,
from strictly legal standpoint, in the
light OF what competent evidence was
before me; and this, only to modify an
unfortunate proclivity to rush into the
law. and thereby greatly jeopardize or
completely destroy all hope OF securing
the road. After reviewing the matter,
and listening attentively to what Mr..
Faulkner has urged, see no reason to
change my former recommendations.

Fun IN DANBURY.

Tho Danbury News man writes /:
" Don't be afraid of a little fun in the
family. A merry dispos ton is god
send to home. There's case OF u
man on Nelson street, for instance.
Saturday he went into the kitchen ahead
Of his wife, and seeing two pumpkin
pies steaming on the table he hastily
concealed them in the ice chest, which
stood open in the back hall. Then he
went down town chuckling to himself,
and ten minutes later the ice cart drove
up and the iceman brought in fifty
pound cake, and started for the ice
chest, followed closely by the fond wife
expatiating upon the 'muss. He put
the cake upon the edge of the chest and
gave it push over, and when it came
down on those two steaming pies, q
pumpkin geyser followed, and the ice
charge, tumbled completely over the
woman and disappeared out of the door.
The wife recovered her balance as
speedily as possible, and catching up q
broom, went after the iceman, but he
escaped her then she came back and
looked in the ice chest, and down at the
oil cloth, and up at the ceiling, and
around on the walls. The men at the
store who were let into the joke by the
facetious Nelson street man are anxious
ly wondering how it turned out"

In June, 1872, the police commits
sioners of Jersey City, together with
Edward l.. McWilliams, then chief of
police, were convicted of having de-
frauded the city treasury by means of
fraudulent pay rolls. Judge Bedle, be-
fore whom they had been tried, sentenc-
ed each to pay a fine OF one hundred
dollars and costs. The conviction and
sentence disfranchised each of the pris-
oners. The police commissioners were
pardoned by the court of pardons sever
nj months ago, but the court at that
time refused TO interfere with McWil-
liams's case, indictments charging him
with much more serious offences were
