Penn Monthly.

The March Penn Monthly, besides It's al
ways judiclous and discriminating notes
on the leading events OF The Month, opens
with very readable, and in the light of a
Philadelphia production, a pardonably self
gratulatory article on The Organization OF
the Centennial Exhibition, for the eminent
success of which the cniei honor is ascribed
to Mr.. Welsh, as the head of the board OF
Finance. Thomas Balch plunges into the
silver controversy by contributing strong
article on the subject under the title of Free
Coinage and SelfAdjust.ng Rate. Christie
pher Dresser pursues with his usual EARNEST
ness, the subject Of Art Schools; Geo. G.

THE STATE MUsTER.-In all probability
though the fact is not definitely settled-the
state muster will be held in Augusta. There
seems to be general desire on the part of the
militia of Maine to continue their annual en-
campment six days, instead of four. To meet
this desire, and at the same time to keep with
in the limits and purposes of the legislative ap.
repatriation for the encampment Adjutant
General Ciley has issued circular asking
each company commander to Immediately as
certain and report to headquarters whether the
company under his command will agree to &C.
cept four days pay for an encampment COM
mencing Monday and closing Saturday of the
same week. Rations will be issued for six
days. 1t is necessary that the reply should
reach the Adjutant Generals office before July
18th, as the order directing an encampment
must be issued thirty days ( prior to such an en-
campment. In case the companies agree to
this the troops will go into camp on Monday of
muster week, and strike their tents on Satur-
day.

SoHENcK's SEA WEED TONIC. In the atmosphere
experienced here during the summer months, the
lethargy produced by the heat takes away the desire
for wholesome food land frequent perspirations reduce
bodily energy, particularly those suffering from the
effects Of facilitating diseases. In order to keep
natural heathtul activity of the SYSTEM we must re-
sort to artificial means. For this purpose Schenck's
Sea Weed Tonic is very effectual A few doses will
create appetite and give fresh vgor to the emery
ated body. For dyspepsia, it is invaluable
Many eminent physicians have doubted whether
dyspepsia can be permanently cured by the drugs
which are generally employed for that purpose. The
Weed Tonic in its nature is totally different from
such drugs. 1t contains no corrosive minerals or
acids; in fact it assists the regular operations Of
nature and supplies her deficiencies. The tonic in
its nature so much resembles the gastric juice
that it is almost identical with that fiuid The
gastric JUICE is the natural solvent which, in healthy
condition of the body causes the food to be digested;
and when this JUICE is not excreted in sufficient
quantities. indigestion, with all its distressing symp-
toms follows, The Sea Weed Tonic performs the
duty of the gastric JUICE when the latter is deficient.
