THE
National Disease !
THE
is 1T DURABLE &?

fIrHOSE who have suffered from the various and
complicated forms OF disease assumed by
Catarrh. and have tried many physicians and REM
edles without relief or cure, await the answer to
this question with considerable anxiety. And well
they may for no disease that can be mentioned is
so universally prevalent and so destructive to
health as Catarrh. Bronchitis, Astnma, Coughs,
ana serious and frequently fatal afe tons OF the
lungs follow, In many cases, case of simple but
neglected Catarrh. Other sympathetic affections,
such as deafness, impaired eye.sght and loss of
sense of smell may lie referred to as minor but
nevertheless serious results OF neglected Catarrh
bad enough in themselves but nothing COM
pared with the dam gerous affections of the throat
and lungs likely to follow.

Beware Of aaaIr.W ashes.

LOnuOu NOElu
Ladies, fair ladies', beware Of hair
washes. A medical friend informs me
that It has lately been discovered that
the active ingredient of all washes for
subduing gray hair is lead, which,
uniting gradually with the natural sui
phur of the hair, forms black sui
phuret OF lead, which is really the
darkening agent We all know how
deleterious and even fatal Is the
application of lead In any chemi-
cal shape to the pores OF the hu-
man body; what, then, must be
the mischief produced by its being con-
tinuously and often daily rubbed into
the delicate skin Of lady's scalp ?
Here, however, Is q practical illustra-
tioD, vouched for by Mr.. Brownleld,
of Norwich. The wash had been used
for two years, but only very moderate
~, a1d during all that time there was
general mdlGise and loss Of muscular
power. About three months since, two
days after an G6ectual application Of
the wash, slight epileptic 1t occurred
and six weeks afterwards simple ap'
plicstion was followed by palsy o
the extensor muscles Of the lef
hand. In this case, probably anotheI
dose might have produced paralysis
but by this time suspicion was aroused
and by the steady application of anti
dotes the symptoms are now disap'
pearing. The profits Of selling these
washes are said TO be so tempting thai
since the secret of the darkening agent
has Oozed out, numerous hair.dressers
both in town and country, are manu-
featuring them and pressing them upon
their customers,

VICKSBURG WEEKLY HERALD, FRIDAY NOVEMBER q 1871

The HERALD's charge to the effect
that Mr.. Bedford received money when
he withdrew from the race two years
ago, has brought that gentleman 10 the
front with q card Of explanation. We
willingly allow the gentleman the use OF
space to explain, for the best friends he
has on earth must acknowledge that
the matter sorely needs explanation.
And there Is another reason why we
have admitted his card In the Demo-
cratic HERALD. II is written in fair
and temperate spirit, and we have
never tried TO do the gentleman any
injustice. If he can satisfy intelligent
people that he acted right, and that he
Is not in false position now, so much
the better for him,
Mr.. Bedford excuses himself for ac-
cepting eleven hundred dollars eve
take his own words for the exact
amounO By saying that a committee oi
arbitration agreed that he should have
that amount, as he had paid, and prom.
i'ed 10 pay, that much in his canvass,
THIS is a fair statement Of the Gaze, and
aud the public can now judge
whether the HERALD's charge was q
- nimsy" one or not. lie acknowledges
that he received the money. But hC
says he took it to defray his expenses
In our judgment rhdt he took IL 70,
amounts TO nothing. lie was either
acting right 10 run against the regular
Democratic nominee, or he was acting
wrong. II he was acting wrong, il
was nobody's business to pay the cos
OF bis bad judgment, and the gentle
men who paid the money did not pay
It for that purpose; they paid 1t as thC
price Of harmony. Ii was no: incum
bent on them TO defray his expenses
but they felt it to be their duty to Sc
cure his withdrawal, and it cost clever
hundred dollars.
