We publish on our eighth page . lengthy
article describing the system of the noted
specialist, DR.. r. V. Pierce, of Buffalo, N.
Y, in which he sets forth with considerable
force and clearness his reasons for devoting
his whole time and attention to a single de-
partment of medicine-the treatment of lin
gering chronic diseases. The same article
also takes up the subjects of diagnosis,
methods of consultation and treatment,
ETC., and will be found to contain many val
liable hints to the invalid. DR.. Pierce is the
author of work which has already attained
a large circulation" The Peoples Common
Sense Medical MISUNDERSTANDING some
nine hundred numerously illustrated pages,
and devoted to medicine in all its branches,
a work well calculated for the guidance and
instruction of the people at large, and
which may be had for $1.50 (post-paid) by
addressing the author. DIR. Pierce has now
been before the general public long enough
to enable the formation Of n careful esti-
mate of the efficiency of his treatment and
his medicines, and the verdict, we are glad
to know, has been universally favorable to
both.

Content with Her Lot.

Sewing she sat, and sitting she sewed,
All her life long,
While others danced and walked and rode,
And Joined in merry song.
This was her fate, for she was lame,
Early or late, twas all the same,
But no repining at her lot
Was heard within the little cot.
A plant. upon the window-sili,
Bloomed with flowers of richest dive.
She said. " It doeth good while siteine sim.
And 30 may l."

IT has been given to the courts of
Tennessee to decide how much of malice
there may be in kiss. A colored man
in Memphis has dragged before a Justice
of the Peace in that city colored wom-
an whom he charges with maliciously
kissing him, the malice consisting in
doing it in the presence of complain
ants wife, to the disturbance of COM
plainant's home quiet and against the
peace and dignity of the people of Ten
nessee. The Justice rather evaded the
real question at issue by finding the de-
PENDANT guilty and suspending sentence.

The Prevailing pi.ease of America.

The disease receives Inherent names IN va.
rious parts of the country. In some sections
it is called dyspepsia, in others it is termed
liver complaint; sometimes they call it kidney
disease, and at others humor in the blood.
The fact is, that all these diseases are pres
ent to some extent in nearly every case, and
this disease prevails to an alarming extent
throughout the whole land. Hardly house,
hold but what has some inmate afflicted.
We advise those who have the following
symptoms to use an effective remedy. and
eradicate the disease from the system: There
is generally a dull pain in the head, with
dizziness at times, foul breath, bad taste in
the mouth, irregular bowels, poor appetite
and imperfect digestion, distressed, all gone
feeling like the gnawing Of cancer in the
pit of the stomach, scanty high colored
urine, stagnated blood, sunken eyes tinged
with yellow, skin cold and clammy, covered
sometimes with brown spots, depressed
spirits with evil forebodings, tired, lam
guild feeling, after time dry hacking
cough, but is followed after time with ex-
pectoration; then wasting away of the
flesh, finally night sweats, and soon death
closes the scene. Such is the brief history
= thousands in this country, and none of us
c;i re too quick in using the remedy. The

a Rrain-soothing nemedy.

The wondrous organ that crowns the edi-
fee of man is not only the seat of reflection
and the home of Ideally, but it is the gov
erning center of the nervous system. When
it is overweight, unduly excited, or af-
fected by Irregularities of those bodily Or
gans with which it m st closely sympathizes,
all the nerves suffer, and the general health
is impaired. The reason why Hostctter's
Stomach Bitters exercise such a soothing in
fuence upon the brain is, that they remove
those digestive and bilious arrangements
relieving irritation or weakness of the great
sympathetic nerve which connects the stom-
ach and the brain, they benefcially affect the
latter organ as well as the former. Sound
sleep, clearness of mind, easy digestion and
freedom from biliousnes are insured by this
prime regulative tonic and nerviue

Upon laying the sworn retraction of
the libel before the King, Struensee
urged the latter strongly to Danish his
stepmother from Copenhagen, and to
beg the Queens pardon for having I'M
justly suspected her.
The King did both. Suliana had to
leave the capital, and the harmony pre-
vailing between the King and his wife
was greater than ever. He showed his
gratitude toward Struensee by confer
ring the title of Count upon him, and
by appointing him reader to the Queen.
Henceforth Struensee and Caro-
line Matilda were a great deal together
That they became warmly attached to
each other admits of no doubt; but
there is no evidence whatever that there
was any thing improper in their rela-
tons.
But Struensee's and Matilda's enc
mics insidiously circulated this report !;
and when the King, in 1870, became in
sane, they asserted that Struensee had
Intentionally poisoned him in order to
be better able to crafty his guilty pas
sion, and to attain his ambitious OBJ

Caroline Matilda, having become re-
gent of the kingdom, appointed Count
Struensee Prime Minister.
He endeavored to introduce numerous
reforms in the administration of the
state. Most of them were decidedly en-
lightsned, but he pursued an arbitrary
and even despotic course in trying to
carry them into execution.
This greatly increased the number OF
his enemies, conspiracy was organized
against him, and on the 10Th of Janu-
AIRY, I772, he was dragged from his bed

A GENEROUS OFFER.

The Government issued bonds for
the building of the Central and Union
Pacific railroads, the principal and in-
tersst on which now amounts to over
$50, 1000, 900. As security for the pay
ment of this Indebtedness, second
mortgage was taken on the roads,
the companies being permitted
by Congressional legislation when
the Credit Mobiliers had full
sway in both Houses, to give
first mortgage to private capitalists for
an amount equal to that advanced by
the Government. No part of the prin-
cipal or interest has been paid by the
corporations which are now seeking
through legislation an easy method OF
cancelling a part of the debt. In ad-
dition to the bonds issued by the Gov
eminent, the companies received
land subsidy of alternate sections along
the road for twenty miles on each side
of the track aggregating millions upon
millions of acres. The most valuable
portion of these lands along the Union
Pacific have been disposed of to set
tiers. These companies cow propose,
with that generosity for which they
are proverbial, to sell the lands
not heretofore disposed of to the
Government at So so per acre.
This brilliant idea is attributed to Jay
Gould who controls the Union Pacific,
though c. P. Huntington of ths
Central Pacific was the first to bring it
before Congress, whers the scheme VAS
referred to the Judiciary Committee aud
rejected by that body. Fortunately
Congress Is not of the Credit Mobllier
persuasion this session or million or
so placed where it would do the most
good would secure the passage of this
swindling scheme.
