.i.ions were presented. as usual, end

The Liquor Clause in the New
Constitution.

CINCINNATI, April 27.-The Consti-
tutional Convention to-day after sever
al days debate engrossed a proposition
tn submit to u separate vote of the .'t.''-
pie for adoption in the Constitution the
following clause:
License to traffic in intoxicating
liquors may be granted, but this secsion
shall not be SO construed as to prevent
the Legislature from making laws to
restrain and regulate the rate and COM
pcnsate for injuries arising therefrom.
The alternative clause is mo license,
and its success before the people would
carry prohibition of the traffic and
leave the Legislature free to make laws
to restrain sales and require compen-
satiou for injuries resulting from sales.

very small darkey boy, and it had
hitched to it something which I would

Perhaps some persons who have never
lived among the Southern negroes
might think that the stories about the
ignorant way in which they talk are
exaggerated. 1t is difficult for q
stranger to understand some of their
Ethiopian slang-a North Carolinian
darkey instead of saying ''Shoo fly"
would be more likely to say "go of um

perfectly grammatical with them. II
few days ago the Negro Baptist Church
had grand baptism. at which very
amusing incident occurred; large
negro was to be baptized; as she step
ped into the water she began to get
scared, and would not allow her head
to go under the wafer, but the old
Minister at last grasped her by the hair
and ''kersouzed" her under; she arose
from the wave with tremendous
snort, and making for the old divine
was about to put him under when
they were separated. The southern
people around here have not yet re-
covered from the effects OF the war and
are still bitter as ever. There is kind
Of theater here which was built by q
Northern man, and to show theiI
hatred, great many of them will moi
go to see any kind OF performance
which is held iD it.
In this part of the country there are

Hack. HackI Cough, Cough!

s. Cough is u symptom by which vari-
Gus diseased condition of the throat,
bronchial tubes and lungs manifest
themselves. But whether it arises
from the irritation produced in the
throat and larynx by taking cold, from
an attack Of bronchitis, from incipient
Consumption, or from various other
causes, nothing will al!ay It more
than DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery. 1t does not matter whether it
be Il recent attack or a lingering cough,
the Discovery is in either case equally
well adapted for its relief and perma-
nent cure. In fact, it will cure a cough
in one-half the time necessary to cure
it with any other medicine, and it
dces it, not by drying it up, but by re-
moving the cause, subduing the irrita-
ton, and healing the affected parts. No
time should be LOST in commencing the
use of proper medicine for the relief
of a Cough, for unless this course 10
pursued, serious and dangerous disease
of the lungs is tablet result.
DO CTOIaS SOON LEARN ITS VALUE.
BUFFALO, N. Y, Dec. 13, 1870.
DR.. PIERCE-For the past six months
have used your Golden Medical Dis
covery in my practice, and in that
time have tested its merits in severe
coughs, both acute and chronic, in
chronic disease ofthe throat, severe ca
ses of bronchitis, general dera. cement
of tho system, constipated condition OF
the bowels, and wherever Il thorough
Alternative has been indicated. In- all
cases L have found it to act gently yet
and effectuallyin removing
the various diseased conditions, and
brings about healthy action through
