Rowing that you are subject to great
amount of suff ering, that delicacy on
your part has a strong tendency to pro-
long il, and the longer it is neglected the
more you have to endure and the moro
difficult of cure your case becomes, /, as
physician, who am daily consulted by
scores of your sex, desire to say to you,
that l am constantly meeting with those
who have been treated for their ailments
for months without being benefited in
the least, until they have become per-
fectly discouraged and have almost made
up their mind never to take another dose
of medicine, or be tortured by any fur
ther treatment. They had rather die
and have their sutferings ended than to
live and suffer as they have. They say
they are worn out by suffering, and are
only made worse by treatment. Of any
thing more discouraging, we certainly
cannot conceive, and were there no more
successful mode of treating such Difficult
ties than that, the principles of which
teach the reducing and depicting of the
vital forces of the system, when the indi-
cations dictate Il treatment directly the
reverse of the one adopted for them,
their case would be deplorable indeed
| But, lady sufferers, there is better and
far more successful plan of treatment
for you one more in harmony with the
laws and requirements of your system.
A harsh, irritating caustic treatment and
strong medicines will never cure you. If
you would use rational means, such as
common-sense should dictate to every
intelligent lady, take such medicines as

special reference to your delicate system.
Such a happy combination you will find
in my Eavorite Prescription, which has

MARYLAND AND THE CENTENNIAL G
The Lynchburg Virginian, referring
to the vote in the Maryland House Of
Delegates making larger appropria-
ton, by a vote of more than two TO
one than that of the Senate, for State
representation at the centennial ex-
position, says: $50 the Maryland
Legislature seems to have better
eye to business than that of her staid
old sister, Virginia. Maryland is wide
awake" If the Senate concur i'll the
action of the House we may prove
that we deserve the tribute of the Vir-
ginian. The fact is that Maryland, ia
view of the great poverty of some of
our Southern sister States, may find
her "local habitation" at the centen-
nial, if it be proper one, the head.
quarters for all the South-that is, the
visitors from those States may all meet
there their friends under the banner
of Mrryland as convenient rendez-
Gus. The difference between the
House and Senate should be at once
reconciled, as there Is NO time for de-
lay. If it can't be done otherwise let
it be done by compromise. Our little
neighbor, Delaware, has already made
ample preparation for creditable repre-
sentati0n. = From the Baltimore Sua

ATMOSPHERIC, ELECTRICITY.

One of the oldest physicians OF
Greece, Hippocrates, was SO sensible
of the atmosphere's being the seat of
the plague, that he ordered large con-
flagrations to be made throughout the
country, in order to avert from it n
threatened attack of the malady. He
was successful, the pl.gue was driven
from Greece. 1t is probable he was
led to this practice from observing
that pestilential diseases were stten
put stop to by great falls of rain.-
This has frequently been observed
also since his time, and is one of the
many circumstances upon which the
important conclusions arc founded, -
that any extensive changes in the at
mosphere, whether produced by natural
or artificial causes, effects the removal
of its pestilential properties. OF arti-
fetal causes thus operating, the fire Of
London affords an excellent example,
the plague lurking in the city, being
utterly extinguished by the agency of
the flames. OF course whatsoever ef-
fects change of the state of the at
mosphere, lin the ordinary sense of
such change) effects also q change
in its electrical condition, seeing that
the air, when dry, is in very differ
ent electrical state from what it is
when wet. and seeing also that any
vapour diffused through the atmos-
phere, necessarily affects its electrical
state, because every different sub.
stance, whether in a state of vapour OF
otherwise, holds its own peculiar re-
lations to electricity, and therefore
these new relations come into play
when any substance Is brought into
contact with the atmospherical elec
tricity.

WASHINGTON, Feb. .21-Speaker Kerr

laughs at the stories of his rapid de-
cline, aad says that he has been in
Congress when bis health was worse

he is confirmed invalid, nor that the
labor of presiding oyer the House is
very arduous, but he has no idea OF
surrondering the gavel at present. His
complaint, intimate friends say, does
not prevent him from applying him
self to hard study, though Il lifesof
case would perhaps better for him, ,and
