A Curious Mixture.

We have heard not little OF late, in regard to
the mixing up Of Free Masonry with Greenback-
ism, as is done through the columns of the Advo-
cate, the New York Greenback sheet. Being a
member of the masonic fraternity, and recol,ect
log that one of the fundamental principles of
that order, is absolute and unqualified sbstaining

Portland, Tuesday, July 3Oth.

The Syracuse platform insists upon the
payment of the Government bonds in
greenbacks. Such breach of faith would
cheat all those who paid full price for
the bonds confiding in the pledge Civ
en- in the act uf March, 1869. that they
should be redeemed in gold. 1t would
probably affect few of the original pur-
chasers who bought the bonds for paper
under the impression that they would be
redeemed in paper. This policy is gen
orally excused on the pretense that il has
about it some of the wild justice of re-
venge. whereas it would simply result in
slaughter of innocents.-N York

This Sarsaparilla is a combination of
vegetable alternatives - Stillingia, Man
drake, Yellow Dock with the Iodides
of Potassium and Iron, and is the most
efficacious medicine yet known for
the diseases it is intended to cure.
Its ingredients are so skilfully COM
bined, that the full Alternative effect of
each is assured, and while it is so mild
as to be harmless even to children, it is
still so effectual as to purge out from the
system those impurities and corruptions
which develop into loathsome disease.
The reputation it enjoys is derived
from its cures, and the confidence which
prominent physicians all over the coun-
try repose in it, prove their experience
of its usefulness.
Certificates attesting its virtues have
accumulated, and are constantly being
received, and as many of these cases are
publicly known, they furnish convincing
evidence IF the superiority of this Sar-
saparilla over every other Alternative
medicine. So generally is its superb
ority to any other medicine known, that
we need do no more than to assure the
public that the best qualities it has ever
possessed are strictly maintained.
