and the large number of testimonials which are
constantly being received from persons who
have been cured by its use, are conclusive
proof of its great value. 1t is recommended by
physicians and apothecarieS. As a Blood-Puri~
fier and Health-Restorer, it has no equal.

made from poor liquors, which debilitates the
system and tends TO destroy health instead OF
restoring 1t.
Are not the many testimonials given for the
different com plants satisfactory to any unrea-
sonable persons suffering from disease that can
be cured? Read the different testimonials
given, and no one can doubt. In many of these
cases the persons say that their pain and suffer-
ing cannot be expressed, as in cases of Scrofula,
where, apparently, the whole body was one
mass of corruption. Ii Negetine will relieve
pain, cleanse purify and cure such diseases,
restoring the patient to perfect health after try
ing different physicians. many remedles, sui
fering for years, is il not conclusive proof, If
you sufferer, you can be cured Why Is
this medicine performing such great cures?
1t works in the blood, in the circulating fluid.
1t can be truly called the Great Blood PuTifer.

From Harper's Weekly !
The New House.

year ago the Democratic party was
generally successful in the elections, and
the result was hailed by the Democratic
press and orators as evidence of pro-
found change in public sentiment. The
infamies of the party which had saved
the Union and sustained popular govern
ment and constitutional hberty-were now
to be exposed, and its crimes punished;
and the party which had been always
false to justice and liberty, which had
debauched the national conscience and
degraded the national name, which had
attempted in its last administration to
ruin the national credit and destroy the
national resources of defenses against
treason, which had plunged the country
into civil war, and by arms and sympathy
had for four years endeavored to over
throw the Constitution and the Union of
which it was the bond-this was the
party which was now to return to power,
restore constitutional government, de-
fend liberty and Justice, and secure re-
form, economy. and efficiency in every
department of administration. Yet every
intelligent observer saw that the party
was essentially the same. Its leaders
were familiar; its followers were of the
old kind; and there was no sensible rea-
son for supposing that they would govern
in 1864 Those observers also were very
sure that the Democratic success was not
an evidence of the national preference of
that party, but a sign of discomfort with
Republican tendencies and warning to
the Republican managers. They said
further that reform in any large and real
sense was impossible to the Democratic
party as now organized. And events
fastened to prove it.
In all the States controlled by the
Democrats there has been no sign of any
kind of reform, except in New York,
where the Governor has exposed the
canal frauds. The great expectation,
however, centred upon the House of
Representatives, which had passed into
Democratic hands. But the scenes pre-
ceding the organization of the House
were but another illustration of the un-
changed character of the party. The
capital according to Democratic ac-
counts, became an arena of contention
for the Speakership. as if it had been
horse-race, a boxing-match, or a cock
fight. Such scenes have not been wit
messed since the same Reform Democ-
racy" went out of power into rebellion.
| One of the two reform" candidates for
| Speaker was known as a salary -grabber
and was openly declared by papers of his
own party to be the candidate of ring and
| iobbers. He was defeated, but he had
the support of very large number of
those who, as we have been informed,
were chosen as "reformers" to purify the
| government And the country will OBJ
serve that this conspicuous member OF
the reforming Democaatic House. openly

A Happy Couple. !,

A man should always be little older,
a little drawer, a little stronger, a little
wiser, and little more in love with her
than she is with him. A woman should
always be little younger, and little
prettier, and little more considerate
than her husband He should bestow
upon her all his worldly goods, and she
should take good care of them-d He may
owe her every care and tenderness that
affection can prompt; but pecuniary in
debtedness to her will become a burthen.
Better live on crust that he earns than
on a fortune that she has brought him.
Neither must be jealous, nor give the
other cause for Jealousy. Neither must
encourage sentimental friendships with
the opposite sex. Perfect confidence in
each other, and reticence- concerning
their mutual affairs, even to members of
their own. families, is a first necessity.
A wife should dress herself becomingly
whenever she expects tomeet her 'hus-
bands eye. The man should not grow
slovenly, even at home, Fault finding,
long arguments, or seedlings, end the
happiness that begins in kisses and love-
making. Sistersiand brothers may. quar-
rel and Ymake up. Lovers are lovers
no longer, after such disturbances occur,
and married people who are not lovers
are bound by red hot chains IL a man
admires his wife most in striped calico,
she is silly not to wear it. -oitsa Hsgs
