The People Want Proof.

There is no medicine prescribed by
physicians, or sold Druggist, that carries
such evidence of its success and superior
virtue as BosCHEE's GERMAN SYRUP for
severe Coughs, Colds settled on the
breast, Consumption, or any disease of
the Throat and Lungs. A proof of that
fact is that any person afflicted, can get
a sampleBottle for 10 cents and try its
superior effect before buying the regu-
lar size at 70 cents. 1t has lately been
introduced in this country from Ger
many, and its wonderful cures are aston
ishing every one that use it. Three
doses will relieve any case. Try it. Sold

ANDREW JOHNSON.
Resolutions to His Memory.

Nashville Banner, January IS.
The special committee of the
Legislature appointed to draft reso.
Unions TO the memory OF the late
IN President Andrew Johnson, sub
.niticd in the House, this morning,
the Following report:
ReSotoeE 6y the General assembly of the
STATE Of Tennessee, That in the life and
services of the late Andrew johnson, we
recognize patriotic citizen, profound
statesman, an honest man; patriotic in
that he ever sought the welfare of his
people; profound in that his matchlesS
intellect penetrated the deepest problems
of statecraft; honest in that amid the
bitterest political contest, even partisan
slanderers could never allege aught
against his personal integrity.
Be at reSOlUed, That we commend the
virtues and fame of this most illustrious
man to the youth of our State and coun-
try as true type of an American citi-
zen, raised as he was from the lowest
through successive grades to the highest
position under our system of govern
ment. In his exaltation, he preserved
the purity and simplicity of early life,
and throughout, obeyed the behests OF
duty in defiance to ali opposing influen-
ces. We respect his great intellect, We
honor his courageous nature, we COM
mend his sterling honesty, we love his
devotion to the people.
Be ct further reSOsred, That in the death
of this great man the lovers of cOnstitu-
tional government and honesty in office
have sustained grievous loss, which,
however, is in some sense mitigated by
the brightness of his example.
Be it further resolved, That these reso-
buttons be spread upon the journal of
both Houses. and that copies of them be
furnished the press for publication.

WHY NOT:

Mesas. Editors: Referring to an item in
your paper of the 4th inst. respecting the
amount of machinery which has gone
through Yankton, into the Black Hills. I
desire to ask would it not be beneficial if we
could stop some of the business from going
by us? l believe we have the men in Yank.
ton who are just as capable Of manufactur-
ing that class of machinery as any town
west Of the Mississippi river. All that is
needed is the necessary pecuniary assistance,
which any town which knows its own in.
terests is always willing to render. If our
foundry could ind employment for 20 or 80
men the year round We should have that
many more cash consumers here which is
quite an item once a week. ! would offer a
suggestion that our business men get TO-
gethcr and see what can be done In this
matter, as I am sure Yankton would be
greatly benefited if we could stop only one
tenth part of the business now passing by
here. simply because We have not made any
exertions to stop 1t. AGENoRA.
