treatment, r.Sage's Catarrh Remedy pro-
duces perfect cures of the worst cases of
Catarrh and Ozana of many years stand

constitutes the only scientific, rational, safe,
and successful manner of treating this
odious disease that has ever been offered

Rev. T. K. Beecher says: 1T is ex-
tremely difficult to commit the crime of
murder in such an accurate and honest way
that it shall satisfy the specifications of the
statute Unless the would-be murderer
takes legal counsel beforehand and follows
instructions infinitely. he will fail nine
times in ten, however sincerely he may try.
Anybody can kill man, but he canuot do
it in tirst-degree style without counsel and
care"

People should beware of those imposters

al style of advertising by offering various
sized rewards for cases of Catarrh and 9th

who dc not possess sufficient intelligence to

THE HEBREW NEW YEAR.

This festival, so important in the Jewish calen.
dar because 1t is the introduction to series OF
festivals and holidays that run along through two
or three months TO come, began last evening at
sunset with religious services held in the different
synagogues in this city and vicinity. 1t begins the

calendar, though according TO Messrs. Dar win,

festival ranks next in Importance to the Day OF

Ten days OF penitence follow this festival, and
then comes Yom Hakippurim, the Atonement

.pKANsAs TROUBLES.

The news from Little Rock is highly
exciting. Brooks, the defeated candi-
date for Governor in 1872, succeeded
Yesterday through his attorneys in OBJ
flaming a writ of custer against Cover
NOR Baxter, the choice of the people, and
took possession of the office by force OF
arms This coup d etat is the result,
no doubt, of deep laid plan to thwart
the will of the people, and restore
violent and despotic element to power
after it had been defeated at the ballot
box. 1t remains to be seen whether the
administration at Washington will sus'
tain this usurpation. Judging from the
fate of Louisiana and South Carolina we
suppose il will. Texas affords an ex'
eeption. So there are are Just two
chances to one that Brooks has
and will have the support and
eountenance of the central govern
ment The Connecticut victory is too
much to stand, but as there is no help

secured by bribery of courts, and only
To be maintained at the point of the bay

Der of the people Of that State If they
submit to this outrage without struggle.
It is a significant fact that Senators
Dorsey and Clayton visited Little Rock
about week ago, while the most impor-
tant bill Of the session was still pending
Brooks chose his opportunity when none
of Baxters counsel was present, OBJ
tanned his writ and in few minutes
rushed in and seized the State House
with body of armed men who put Bax-
fer ont BIZ force. 1t is evidently delibe-
rate conspiracy to carry the fall elections
nv fraud and force. The time has been
when such an event could not have hap
pened without exciting the indignation
of the whole country, bat the laws and
regular forms Of government have been
80 often set aside at the dictation of
reckless men that the American people
are caIlous to any thing of the kind
when it happens in the South. But the
time is coming when other sections Of
the country will feel the same iron hand
laid upon local governments, and see
their legally constituted authorities
swept away that usurpers may stalk in
and take their seats in high places.

A Rnstic DOwager's Theatrical
Exnerience.

A New York correspo ndent writes: A
fat and proper old dowager came to this
town lately from her villa up the Hudson
for the purpose of seeing the new plays
and players, ard she asked one of her
bachelor acquaintance to accompany
her in making the round OF the fashion
able theaters. They first visited that
charming resort, the Union Square The
alter, saw the play OF Led Astray. the
theme of which is adultery, and the
proper old 9owager was interested.
They next visited Booths grandiose
theater, saw the great Jauauschek IL the
play of Chesney World, the theme of
which is adultery, and the fat dowager
felt squeamish over so much OF it. They
next visited Days Fifth Avenue Thea
ter, saw the thrilling play of Charity, the
theme of which is adultery, and the
proper old dowager got so nauseated and
disguised with the whole adulter-
Gus business that she declared she could
not tolerate any more of the plays now
performed here before fashionable So
ciety. She told her bachelor cavalier
servente that she would try one more
theater before flying from the city to her
home. So last night they visited the
prettiest of all our play houses, where
the witty and wicked opera bouffe of
Madame Angot was performed in the
French language, and Mademoiselle
Aimee played her lascivious pranks, and
another Mademoiselle showed her stock
ings, and others whirled about in their
short dresses, and where things were
said in French more significantly than
they could be in English, and where
adultery, which in the previous plays
resulted in remorse. was taught as one
of the fine arts. The fat and proper old
dowager was bamboozled, and is now
anxious to see merely the meHagerie and
negro minstrels, and then get back to
her villa up the Hudson.
