MIR. Everts told us all about what
degraded piece of humanity Tlton
was, and new Mr.. Beach is busy in
forming the world in general and the
jurors in particular, how much lower
than the beasts that perish Beecher is.
Both succeeded in making the public
endorse their views, and nobody is the
better for their efforts.
The Jury in the case OF Moore
VS.. Jas. p. Barr, editor Of the Pitts
burgh Post, for libel, brought in YER
dict of $4,000 In favor of the plain
tiff. The defendants lawyers at once
moved for new trial, filing reasons
therefor. Numerous exceptions we're
taken to the rulings of the court in
the case. 1t wouldn't take more than
five or six such verdicts to. close our

The July number Of Peterson's
Magazine is already on our table, and
is one of those rare triumphs which
have won for this "queen of the ladies
books" its vast circulation, larger, we
believe, than that of any other in the
world. The principal steel plate, "a
Modern Water-Nymph," illustrates a
sparkling little sketch, in which con-
ceited town exquisite comes to deserv-
ed grief at the hands of a pretty
country belle. The double-sized col
ored steel fashion-plate is a wonder Of
beauty; the styles.are the latest; and
it is not only fashion plate, it is a
picture. AS to the literary contents,
they are, as always, first class. 1t is
also the cheapest of all the really good
magazines. The price is but two dol
lars year, postage prepaid by the
publisher. To clubs, the rates are
lowyer yet. postage also prepaid by
the publisherj and choice of splen-
did premiums is given to persons get
ting up clubs, one of them being an
extra copy of the Magazine. Speci-
mems are also sent, gratis, to persons
wishing to get up clubs. Address,

Heart Disease.

Many persons suffer with heart disease
without knowing it-suddenly they drop
of, and their friends are astonished, on
o post nlortem examination, to learn that
they died of heart disease. The heart,
like the brain, is the seat of Ife-its dis
eases are of several characters. The
most common are valvular disease, fatty
degeneration, and functional derange-
ment. If the liver becomes deranged,
and digestion is impaired, the heart,
through sympathy and juxtaposition,
becomes abnormal. The following
symptoms indicate approaching disease:
.palpitation, giddiness, faintness, nervous
prostration, deranged digestion, vertigo,
cold extremities, ETC., etc., for which the
old school will administer iron, opium,
antimony, mercury, and many other
mineral poisons. Heart disease is q
blood disease-purify the blood; remove
distractions to a impid circulation by
taking that vegetable Alternative, Vine
gar Bitters, and you will be sound per-
son In two or three months.-Com.

graded, and particularly those whose
degradation has brought them into the
hands of public authority. We must
confess that this seems to us an insuper-
able objection to the new scheme. We
heartily trust that it may not be found to
be so, for the need which it is suggested
to supply is one of the greatest felt by
modern society. The new movement is,
we are inclined to believe, in the right
direction; and it would not be surprisir g
if the issue were the establishment of
small public reformatory schools in the
nature of households, in which the
teaching should be trades and house
keeping rather than reading and writing

Bad for the Whale.

Captain Spicer, of the New London
whaling bark Nile, says that in the scalp
bone of a two-hundred- barrel whale,
struck by his boats crew, was found the
head of Scotch gun harpoon, marked
with the name of the Scotch whaler True
Love, and the date 1861. The True Love
has not made voyage during the last
eight or ten years, and this fact, taken in
connection with the date stamped in the
harpoon, would indicate that the whale
had been carrying this ugly piece of iron
around for not less than eight years, and
perhaps twelve or thirteen years. The
whale was captured by the Nile in Cum
berland inlet, while the True Loves
station was in Baffin's bay, so that he was
something of traveller. The harpoon
head weighed between four and five
pounds.
