Rheumatism & Liver Complaint,

May hail with joy the advent in their midst
of these wonderful medicines, which the Doc.
tor has lahored for years to perfect, as spe-
cific for the above diseases.
You that are suffering at once cast aside
your prejudice, derived, and justly, from re-
peated failures. We ask that your hopes may
revive, at least sufficiently to give this medi-
cine one fair trial. We feel bound 10 do our
duty, and in justice to DR.. Clark and The suf-
faring thousands who may read this card we,
the undersigned residents of this county and
vicinity, MOST FORTUNATELY speak from ex-
perience, and we assert most emphatic ally
the efficacy of the above medicines is irrefu-
table. Our friends, and even strangers, may
ponder over these remarks, but IL the candid
truth from our lips robs them of their incre-
dulity sufficiently to place themselves, with
kindling hope, under the treatment OF DIR.
Clark, with his celebrated Family Medicines
wewell know that some good will accrue from
our efforts, and most heartily say

THESE Medicines, which are becoming so
popular In the Southern portion of this
State, are simply beating down all prejudice
and opposition as regards their efficacy here
as they have been doing in San Francisco and
other places. BY their virtues, their irrefrag-
ible influences, surely and speedily effected,
the most incredulOus are at once shorn of
their doubts. Those who have dreaded and
suffered with those excruciating discs,

The WOMAN WHO HAS THE CHARN OF
NEArNEss.- is difficult to be rude or
rough or course in her spotless presence;
it is impossible to be unduly loud and
familiar with q woman whose dress
bears the impress at ence of refinement
and reserve. "Cleanliness," says st.
Paul, sis next to godliness," and even
the ungodliest man is ready to put Off
his mental shoes and acknowledge he is
on holy ground in the presence of a pure
and spotless woman. We do not like to
think of any lady having to rush away
in abject terror if bv chance one of her
husbands friends should call duping the
forenoon. Dress is not without its in
funce on address. A woman in her
night. gown will seldom be in her wrong
temper. She will feel at ease. not racked
as to tho 'sit Of her bib aud tucker, or
exercised "a to the angle of her topknot.
Not needing to think of herself. she will
be better able to think of her guests, and
will enter into the conversation of the
moment with gsysty and gusto that
will charm her visitors. Should, on
the contrary. her gown sag her shoes
be down at the heel, her hair untidy,
embarrassment and preoccupation will
sit heavy upon hcr.-lFraser's Maga-

! WASHINGTON, March 24.-The movement
| in favor of a ncn-psrtisan currency Dill
seems to be gaining strength every DAY.
| Several Of the most prominent Repuoii-
! cans have indicated their willingness to
support IL. and have expressed the opinion
that Republicans. with exception of those
who voted for Mr.. Atkins's bill last Mon
! day, can be united In Its favor. The repeal
OF that clause In the Resumption act OF 1879
fixing Jan. I, 1879. as the date when Uni
| ted States notes shall be redeemed In coin.
will no doubt be one of the features ofthe
bill, but it Is proposed to retain those
| portions of the present law which provide
for free banking and withdrawal from circu-
lation OF an amount in greenbacks equal TO
| so per cent OF the volume of new bank cur
rency issued. Advocates Of the new meas
| sure are almost unanimous in the opinion
| that since IL Is impossible for the Secre-
| tary Of the Treasury to carry into effect
| the Resumption act OF last year without
additional legislation, which Congress in
its present temper will not pass, the next
best thing Is to allow the Treasury notes
20 be funded gradually at the option OF
holders into interest bearing bouds pay
able In gold at some future fixed time.
The effect OF such An act would b: to raise
the value OF our paper currencv Mt once,
and without forced or violent contraction
to bring 1t to par with gold within very
short time. Although this would not be
specie payments, which the anti-resump-
tionists now urgs against every measure
of currency reform. The most serious
objection that has yet been suggested to
the proposed Funding bill is that it will
increase the interest bearing debt Of the
country. Its advocates reply, when this
objection is urged. that they expect only
a very small portion Of the greenbacks to
be funded under such bill as this, since
they hope that the premium on gold would
be gradually reduced, and that a revival OF
business would very soon make a demand
for money SO much greater tina, ii could be
invested in legitimate business enterprises
which would yield more than per cent

The ELECTION BILL.-The bill passed
by the House on Wednesday. "Perley" OF
the Boston Journal thinks, is more than the
Democrats bargained for. Its provisions
are as follows.
All officers and employees of the Govern
ment are forbidden to contribute money or
any valuable thing, or to make personal
canvass, for political purposes In any ma
tional election, under lpenalty Of punish
ment for committing a misdemeanor. The
inhibition as to the use Of money extends
TO Congressman. and penalties are also pre-
scribed for the threatening of injury to the
life or limb of voter TO ntimidate his vote.
The United States Courts and their Mar
shals are empowered 10 enforce this law.
The last provisions are contained in tho
GoOde amendment. and the Republicans
claim since the passage of the bill that they
have a much wider meaning and a greater
application than the Democrats who pro-
posed the amendment imagine. 1t is GER
tain that The Republican lawyers were at
first inclined to oppose this amendment.
but Southern Republicans approached, aft
er reading the amendment, which had not
been printed. and urged their Northern as
sociates not to oppose its adoption. 1t is
now claimed that this Goode amendment
includes every feature Of the proposed Re.
publican force bill of last year. with the
single exception of the power to suspend
the writ of habeas corpus. The Republi-
cans maintain that under it they can effect
| ually prevent what is termed the intimida-
| tion of the black vote. One of their nnm-
| Der. more enthusiastic than the rest. de-
| clared that under these provisions he could
| take the United States Marshal and lock
every Democrat in his district up on the
day of election. Ii is not to be expected
| that the Democi ats who offered the amend
ment anticipate such an execution Of its
| provisions.

Miss Ii. is teacher of experience and has
labored earnestly and faithfully, for the ad-
vancement of her pupils. Miss II. succeed
ed in getting up two speaking schools dur
ing the term. The pupils were entirely un-
used TO speaking, and great deal of urg-
| ing. encouragement and rehearsing were
necessary. About fifteen dialogues were
spoken at each school. the subjects were
well chosen, and the parts creditably per-
formed. The single pieces were particu-
larly praiseworthy. as were also the recita-
tions of the younger pupils.
Judging from the numbers present and

that all were very much pleased and salts
