CENTAUR
LlNlMENTS.

So nearly perfect are the recipes Of these wonder
full pain soothing and healing Centaur Liniments
that we can confidently say they will alleviate
any pain arising from flesh, bone or muscle DE
rangements. We do not pretend that they VIII
mend q broken leg OF exterminate boils, but even
in such cases they will reduce the Inflammation
and stop the pain. Nor can we guarantee the prop
er results where the body is poisoned by whiskey.
Temperance is as necessary to proper physical,
as mental condition.
The WHITE CENTAUR LTNIMENT is particularly
adapted to all cases of Rheumatism, Lumbago,
Neuralgia, Eryspelas, Itch, Sprains, Chlllbiains,
Cuts, Bruises Stings, Poisons, Scalds, Sciatica,
Weak Back, Pains in the side, Wounds, weeping
Sinews, Burns, Frosted Feet, Palsy, Ear-ache'
Tooth.ache, Headache, Ulcers, Old Sores, Broken
Breasts, Sore Niples, Sore Throat, Group, Dipthe-
ria, etc. The most ol these complaints the Centaur
Lnment will cure; all of them it will benefit. IT
will extract the poison from bites and stings and
will cure burns and scalds without scar. The fol-
lowing is but a sample OF thousand similar testi-
monials:
"ANTIOCH, ILL, Dec. /, 1874.
"My wife has for long time, been a terrible sut'
ferer from Rheumatism. She has tried many phy-
scians and many remedies. The only thing whch
has given her reliefis Centaur Linlment. am re-
joiced to say this has cured her.
W. II. RING, Postmaster"
1t is an indisputable fact that the Centaur Lini'
ments are performing cures never before effected
by any preparation in existence,-lke Chronic
Rheumatism OF thirty years standing. Strengthening
fingers and joints viii ch had been st for six years,
taking the soreness from burns, &c.
| One dollar, or even fifty cents, invested in Cen
taur Liniment will be within reach when an acci.
dent occurs, and will do more good than any
amount of money paid for medical attendance
When physicians are called they frequently use
this Liniment, and OF course charge several prices
for il.

nation should, as soon Is consistent with

tion OF property for the benefit Of all, and
accessible to the children Of citizens Of

be maintained absolutely free from Sec

tion is the right arm Of national safety in
free and tolerant government whose
guarantee OF liberty can only be perpetu-
ated while knowledge peryades the
masses. .Ia
While reiterating our firm devotion to
the principles that were cherished and
established by the American patriots Of
20, as incorporated in the Declaration Of
Independence, In the Constitution Of the
United States and in the laws Of Congress,
we can not ignore the fact, which is in
delibly written in our national history,
that for the privilege Of celebrating the
centennial OF this republic the freemen
of America are indebted not only to its
founders but also to. It's defenders, and
that il to-day we have country or a

tinue what they were designed to
be, the schools Of the people. In

development OF the people, and no laws
should be enacted that are despotic in
character or in disregard Of the wishes OF
the people. :,
10. We have not forgotten, and shall
not forget, the services rendered to the
cause Of the Union by our gallant sol.
diers and seamen during the war Of the
rebellion-how firmly they stood amid
the leaden hail Of battle, how patiently
and heroically they endured the hard.

IN the defense OF the Government, and on
this we shall earnestly and constantly
insist.
20. The administration Of Gen. Grant
commands our fullest confidence and ap-
probation. Our respect for him as a man
OF uuspotted honor and as astatesman OF
wisdom and prudence, and our admiration

unabated, and we especially commend

q. In our opinion the Hon. Oliver P.
Morton possesses in an eminent degree
ability and qualities which tit him for the
office OF President OF the United States.
During his service as Governor Of the
State, when the Union was in the utmost
peril, he displayed executiye' abilities Of
thc yeryhighest order, and his Senatorial
career has been distinguished BY such
statesmanlike wisdom as 10 win the ap.
proval Of the whole country. We know
his faithfulness to every public trust; his
earnest devotion TO the cause Of the
Union; his unilinching advocacy OF the
rights of-the7 oppressed. Therefore we
present his name to the National Repub-
iican Convention for nomination for the
office Of President.
The resolutions were unanimously
adopted.

The entertainments Of the past two
nights at the Opera House,it it is needless

Of those present last night have no doubt

changed to "!siege" OF troubles.
There Is no character in all the WOE.

none that have been more the subject Of
endless and diverse speculation. Was
Hamlet sane or insane? Had he simply

These are questions upon which the
scholar. Of Europe and America have
written at infinite length, and still, like
the problems Of life and death, they are
un.Dlyed and probably insoluble.
Readers Of Hamlet are aware that in
,ere.t in the play centres iuthe character
Of the mysterious Prince himself, and is
not Inspired by the circumstances that
surround him. II is the quality OF the
man, his interior spirit, and the general
fragrance OF his nature that'constantly

who hold that Hamlet was afflicted with
an unnatural, weird, and hopeless nelan-

dowlnents Of his nature. He saw things

" blended in his wonderful make up.
These striking features all came out
very impressively in Mr.. sulGynn's de.

that no one who studied the character as
he presented it can fail to have a higher
conception Of the wonderful and tragic
mystery with which the genius Of the
Great Poet has invested the character Of
