The American mind is active. 1t has given us
books of fiction for the sentme ntalist, learned
books for the scholar and professional student but
few books for the people. A book for the
people must relate to a subject of universal
interest. Such subject is the physical man
and such book "The Peoples Common Sense
Medical Adviser" copy of which has been re-
Gently laid on table. The high professional
attachments of its author-Dr. II. V. Pierce, of
Buffalo, y. Y.,-and the advantages derived by
him from extensive practice, would alone in
sure for his work cordial reception. But these
are not the merits for which it claims our aten-
ton The Author is man of the people. He
sympathzes with them in all their ath lotion, efforts
and attainments. He perceives their want-a
knowledges of themselves-and believing that all
truth should be as universal as Gods own sunlight
from his fund of learning and experience he has
produced a work in which he gives them the bene-
fits of his labors. In it he considers man in every
phase of his existence, from the moment he emer
ees "from rayless atom, too diminutive for the
sight until he gradually evolves to the maturity OF
those conscious powers, the exercise OF which fur
nishes subjective evidence of our Immortality"
Proceeding upon the theory that every fact of mind
has a physical antecedcnt, he has given an adj
nrablc treatise on Cerebral Physiology, and shown
the bearings of the facts thus established upon
individual and social welfare. The Author be-
lieves with Spencer that "as vigorous health and
its accompanying high spirits are larger elements
of happiness than any other things whatever, the
teaching how to maintain them is teaching that
yields to no other whatever" and accordingly has
introduced an extensive discussion of the meth
DDS by which we may preserve the integrity OF the
system and otttimeS prevent the onset of disease.
Domestic Remedies-their preparation, uses, and
elects-form a prominent feature of the work
The hygienic treatment, nursing of the sick, IS
an important subject, and receives attention com
mcnsuratc with its importance. Nearly all dis
eases ''to which flesh is heir are described, their
symptoms and causes explained, and domestic
treatment suggested. To reciprocate the many
favors bestowed upon him by a generous public,
the author offers his books at price (Sl.50) little
| exceeding the cost of publication. Our readers
can obtain this practical and valuable work by ad-
dressing the author. novl3-f eOd,&wlw

How the Old and Infirn are supported by
FeilOWs' Compound Syrup of HypO-
nhOanhitek.

During the vigor of youth the expenditure of
mans strength) is balanced by activity Of the nu-
tritive functions, without the aid Of science.
But Time, the everlasting dissipator of reason
as Of events, sets limit to his power and it is at
this epoch that science may render to man the de-
sired assistance, and restore the drain upon his
wasted energies.
Each effort of the mind every act of the body,
will extract a volume of nervous element in pro-
portion to the magnitude of the thought action,
and since this Hypophospbites combination really
will supply the ris ritz to the body, it must sup
port the human mechanism successfully after the

The Mississippi correspondent of the Cincinnati
Commercial, speaking Of the Congressional cleo
tons in that State, says:
In three of these districts the republicans will
contest the election, and, although the new Con
gress is largely democratic, should not be sur
prised it, in at least two districts of this State the
republican contestants were able to show such o
condition Of things about election time as to get
their Seats even at the hands of democratic Con-
gress. This State was given two additional Con-
gressmen on account Of the enfranchisement of
the negroes, and justice would demand that the
blacks have untrammsled voice in their selec-
ton. You may expect this Mississippi election to
be hauled over the Goals next winter at Washing
ton. With three or four seats contested, as there
doubtless will be, it will give Congress an oppor-
tunity to look into the true nwardness Of the cleo
ton"
