CATARRH.
Statement of o. ]. Goodrich, Esq, Editor
Rocky Mountain Herald, Denver,
Colorado, showing the Preva-
lenoe Of Catarrh and the
Popularity of Sanford's
Radical Cure for
Catarrh.

EVERY nine ort of ten adults in this whole region
of country is AFFLICTED with CatSrrh. II seems TO be
cmatically epidemic out in this atmosphere. Mr..
Smith tells that the three dozen bottles Of Radical
Cure were immediately sold, and that he had forty
orders for within the last three weeks but had
none here 10 supply from"
The Mr.. Smith referred to is Of the hrm Of Smith
l. Doll, furniture dealers, Denver. When in Boston
about year ago he purchased eleven bottles Of -
Catarrh Remedy, and one Of sAEFoRDs RADICAL
CuRE, the latter at tho earnest request Of personal
acquaintance. He had seen the hrst named remedy
but had not heard Of the latter. Shortly after his ar
rival in Denver received an order for dozen Of
the Radical Cure and another with the pleasing
intelligence that Mr.. Smith was cured. The preva-
ence OF the disease, coupled with the recommends
tons Of Mr.. Smith, soon created lively demand, and
without advertising nearly three hundred bottles
sent out This is = striking Illustration Of what is
frequently done for this remedy return for relief
from long and painful suffering

Excited Interview between Mr..
Faulkner and the Attorney Gen.

We copy from the Parkersburg Sentinel Of
December 18Th, tie following item, which
may be Of some interest to our readers:
1t is currently reported in the papers that
the A,Iorney-Geners'o the United States hal
ordered an appeal on behalf Of the Govern
ment from the decision recently rendered By
your distinguished ie.low-citizsn, judge JACK
son, IN the case relating TO the Ha'per's Fcr.J
property. This rum0r tnrns ont 10 oe true.
aud lei u a S'cUe e no little excitement he
tween Attorucv-Gcn al Pierrcvoat and Mr..
raulkuer, the Representative Of the second
district. Mr. Faulkner claimed that he should
have been consulted upon the subject before
Any action by the Department was taken and
be alleged thai; lie bah the promise of the At
torney- General to that Effect. lie charged
that there had been an alliance between the
Government aud the spectators under the
former head Of that department, and broadly
iutimated that such alliance seemed still to
continue. lie protested against the order Of
appeal which the Attoruey-Gereral had Is
suei, aud demanded as al act Of Justice to his
constituents, an immediate revocation of the
order The conversation was so loud and ex-
cited in its tone as 70 be heard by all who were
sitting in the aute-ro1m. 1t remains to be
seen what the Attorney General will do under
this decisive protest of Mr.. Faulkner.

Christnns Festivities.

If the weather had not been nclement, and The
roads muddy, we do not know what the people
would have done Wednesday evening, Dee 29Ih,
in the NJ. 7. Church. Harper's Ferry. As it was
every seat was occupied. As usual the church
was decorated with great taste, the striking iea-
ture being an evergreen arch, eutained in gilt
chain from each end of which hung gold cross,
in front OF the pulpit. The church is indebted,
we understand, for the design and workmanship
Of this beautiful device, to Master John NcFaden.
The programme Of the evening included sing
ing, Rotations dialogues, &c, and was exceed
ingly interesting. Had VIC been supplied with a
fuller account OF the delightful doings we should
have published them with pleasure.

Christmas Tree at The Presbyterian
Church, Hsryet's Ferry.

Tie Sabbath School children u the rresby-
tefiln Church, Harpers Ferry, held their
Christmas Tree festivities on New Years Eve.
The church was dcnsely crowded. was
packed % Inconvenience. The explanation q
this. perhaps. is in a remembrance Of the TO-
ieresiing character e the exercises on former
years. and the taste that tic Superintendent,
Mr. McCreiebi. displays ia church decoration.
No one Of the great audience was. or could
have been disappointed on the present occa-
sion. We lave never seen a moro elegantly,
ehastely, or appropriately decorated church.
We call especial attention TO one peculiarly
in oil we observei-it seems TO have been run
uing through the head OF tie Superintendent
in bis whole management Of the atflir-in the
singing Of the children as Of Mrs Kirwan, in
The poem read by Mr.. Davies, and in bis ad-
dress, in the decorations Of the church in
Guiding The Star over the pulpit, ian ingenious
and appropriate elegancy that we have never
seen Surpassed the interesting and sacred oc-
casion was remembered. Everything tended
to recall the story of the Nativity. This, it
seems to us, is just as it ought to he. The
candies Of Santa Claus are soon eaten his
toys are soon destroyed his books are soon
read. If he teaches no lesson-if lie recalls
and impresses no holy memory he might as
well never come
On leaving the church, we were happy to
hear a lady-of the Catholic persuasion we
think-say, as it corroborates our own views,
b" Well, Of course, we don't have such exercises
in our churches; but | saw nothing this eve
