The reputation it has attained, in
consequence of the marvellous cures it
has produced during the last half CEN
tury, is sufficient assurance to the
public that it will continue to realize
the happiest results that can be desired.
In almost every section Of country
there are persons, publicly known, who
have been restored from alarming and
even desperate diseases of the lungs,
by its use. All who have tried it ac-
knowledge its superiority; and where
its virtues are known, no one hcsitateS
as to what medicine to employ to re-
licve the distress and suffering peculiar
to pulmonary affections. CHERRY PFC
ToRAL always affords instant relief, and
performs rapid cures of the mildcr va
rieties of bronchial disorder, as well as
the more formidable diseases Of the
lungs.
As a safeguard to children, amid
the distressing diseases which beset
the Throat and Chest Of Childhood, it
is invaluable; for, by its timely use,
multitudes are rescued and restored to
health.
This medicine gains friends at
every trial, as the cures it is constantly
producing are too remarkable to be
forgotten. No family should be with
out it, and those who have once used
it never will.
Eminent Physicians throughout the
country prescribe it, and Clergymen
often recommend it from their knowl~
edge Of its effects.

WEy Advertise 4?

People sometimes ask why does DR.. Il. V.
Pierce, of Buffalo, New York, spend so much
money in advertising his family medicines,
which are so well known and SurpaSs all other
remedies in popularity and sale. Ii is well
known that A. Il. Stewart considered it good
policy, and undoubtedly it paid him, to spend
many hundred thousand dollars in advertising
his goods, yet nobody questioned the excellence
of his merchandise. The grand secret of sue
cess lies IN offering only goods which possess
merit to sustain themselves, and then through
liberal and persistent advertising making the
people thoroughly acquainted with their good
qualities. Men do not succeed in amassing
great fortunes, establishing thriving and per-
manent business, and founding substantial in
situations like DIR. Pierce's Grand Invalids' Ho-
tel at Buffalo, which costs over two hundred
thousand dollars, unless their business be le-
services which they render the people genuine
and valuable. DR.. Pierce does not attempt to
humbug you by telling YOU that his Golden
Medical Discovery will cure all diseases. He
says, 'If your lungs are half wasted by con-
sumption, my Discovery will not cure you, yet
| as 4 remedy for severe coughs and all durable
bronchial, throat, and lung affections, believe
| it to be unsurpassed as remedy" The peo-
pie have confidence in his medicines because
he does not over recommend them, and when
tried they give satisfaction. His Medical Adj

Prospects of the Electoral Bill.



WASHINGTON, Jan. -.

| Committee would have the right TO go behind

| the Committee of the whole without amend
ment, and to the amaZement of Morton and
| Sherman, the friends Of the bill showed an in
| tention to let the bill come to vote without
| further debate. Sherman's sallow face was a
| picture of dismay, as he hurrledly consulted
| in whispers with Morton. The latter. to gain a
| moments time, instructed his henchman, Hip
| pe-Mitchel, to move to adjourn, which motion
was promptly and almost unanimously voted
down, Edmunds advising the opponents of the
| bill to use all The time they had to-day, as he

that the Senate had not yet heard the views of

in the Senate. Finally EdmundS took sufficient
pity on the demoraliZed conspirator TO move to

lag, as a sort of benedcton that if the oppo-

LECTURE BY Hon. JAMES c. MADIGAN.
The Rights and Duties of American Catholics
was the subject Of deeply interesting lecture
in Music Hall, last evening, by the Hon. Jas. C.
Madigan of Houton. In opening, the lecturer
claimed a Catholic had visited America befo1 e
its discovery by Columbus, and also that it was
named after Catholic. Catholics had right
here which cannot be disputed. He spoke of
the thousands of men of the Catholic faith who
had cemented, as it We're, the very corner
stones of our republic with their best hearts
blood, and claimed that the faith, as taught by
the Romanish Church, was, in too many cases,
only tolerated here, instead of being heartily
welcomed, as it should be. The commonly
made accusation that fealty to the Pope meant
disloyalty to the Government was pronounced
wholly nnfounded. The great bugbear-unity
of Church and State-was ridiculed, and, in
closing the speaker charged his hearers to stand
firm in the faith which has stood the terrible
assaults made against it in years past, and
which he declared would stand for ages, or UNI
