SPECIAL CORRESPONDENCE.
WASHINGTON CITY,
Ian. 2l. 1878.

The day after Hon. Daniel w. Vor-
hees made his able speech on the silver
bill in the United States Senate, there
was brilliant star observable with the
naked eye in the Eastern part OF the
horizon over this city. Multitudes OF
people stood upon the highways gazing
at it, and it has been suggested that
this phenomena points to the modern
"Daniel" as the one who shall interpret
and expose to a suffering people the
plotting dreams of the bondholders and
money changers.
Beware We covetous men OF the East
We sooth-sayers and seers. lest right.
eous retribu,ion shall overtake you, and
the ayonies of the million of sufferers
produced by your extortion, your iJus-
tice and trickery, shall bring upon you
that Just punishment, which righteous
Judge holds in reserve for you! Mighty
are the judgments of He who holds the
destinies of people in His just balance.
Should He tip the scales to the side of
the multitude, woe, woe to those who
have brought about their distress and
SORROWS.
Daniel! may thy visions be bright,
clear and convincing, and 80 impress
King Rutherford that he will give ear
unto thy prophecies, aud act SO as to
give relief to the people.

1t is now an acknowledged fact that
CONSUMPTION CAN BE CURED. 1t has been
cured in very great number OF cases
(some of them apparently desperate ones)
by Schenck's Pulmonic Syrup alone, and
in others by the same medicine in cOnnec-
tioh with Schenck's Sea Weed Tonic aad
Mandrake Pills, one or bosh, according to
the requirements of the case.
The old supposition that Consumption
Is incurable," for many years deferred
Physicians from attempting to find a
remedy for that disease, and patients af-
flicted with it reconciled themselves to
death without an effort being made to
save them from doam which was con-
sidered inevitable.
DR.. Schenok himself was supposed at
one time to be at the very gate of death,
his Physicians having pronounced his
case hopeless and abandoned him to his
fate he was CURED by the aforesaid med
icines and afterward enjoyed uninter-
rupted good health for more than forty
wears. Thousands Of people have used
DR.. Schenck's preparations with the same
remarkable success.
Schenck's Almanac, containing thor
ough'treatise on Consumption Liver Com
plant, Dyspepsia, &C., can be had gratis
of any druggist, or of j. II. Schenck Il
Son. Philadelphia. Full directions for
use of Schenck's medicines accompany
each package. WI
Schenck's Pulmonic' Syrup, Sea Weed
Tonic, and Mandrake Pills are for sale by
all druggists.

Counterfeitins i'm Missouri.

Some eight years ago, Brown Weber
and Graham, wholesale druggists in st.
Louis, were doing the largest business in
the State of Missouri. Among other goods
they sold large quantities of Specs Port
Grape Wine, which is pronounced the
purest wine in the market. In 1868 one
or two members of the firm conceived the
idea of getting up "a counterfeit OF this
wine by making IA cheap mixture of fla
voring ingredients with whiskcy and
water, and called it wine. With this stuff
they filled several thousand bottles, put
on counterfeit label of Speer's wine,and
a counterfeit of Mr.. Alfred Speer's sigma
ture over the cork, and supplied major
ity of the retail druggists throughout
the country west of the Mississippi River,
who purchased it of B. w. & q. las Speer's
genuine Port Grape Wine. The trick was
not discovered until the consumers re-
turned the stuff to their druggist as not
fit for use. Hearing of this in 1869, Mr..
Speer at once went from New Jersey to
st. Louis, employed detectives, land traced
the headquarters for dealing in this imi-
tatiOn of his wine to the place of Brown,
Weber d Graham. He commenced suit
for $40, 900 damages in the United Stat 3
Court. Such deception on the part of
this house caused them to loose their bust
ness, and before the trial came off the
firm failed, and became worthless. This
stuff is now out of existence, having spoil
ed and burst the bottles, so that none is
now to be found in the market. Tue large
yield from the New Jersey vineyards the
last few years has enabled Mr.. Speer to
reduce the price of his wine. His New
Jersey Port is far superior to any hereto
fore put i'll the market; none of which is
bottled until four years old. 1t is pre-
scribed by physicians as the best and most
reliable wine to be had. Most Druggists
throughout the country sell Speer's Fort
Grape Wine.-Independent

An ALPINE AVALANCHE.

In the summer of 1864, a party OF
tourists, while visiting the Alps, climb
ed, with great difficulty, to an elevated
and snow-covered plateau, III order to
obtain better view of Swiss scenery,
and contrast the beauty aud richness of
midsummer below with the bleaknesss
and sterility of midwinter around aud
above them. In play they rolled the
moist snow into large balls, tbey crowd
ed it over the edge of the plateau. In
falling it struck softer snow, which i'm
mediately gave way, and soon an ava
lanche was tearing down the mountain
side burying and destroying every thing
in its. course. As the handful of snow
became the irresistible avalanche, so
the hacking cough with sore throat aud
Catarrh, if neglected, speedily develops
into that dread destroyer, Consumption.
In the early stages, DR.. Sage's Catarrh
Remedy will effect cure, though if the
blood be effected or impoverished it
must be purified and enriched by DIR.

TO MISS N. B. c., OF WINCHESTER
She has an eye no star more bright,
And as the star in darkest night;
So does her eye through its dark lashes,
Kindle with loveliest CLEANS and flashes
She has a brow ofsthat fair mould,
We see in statues rare ard old;
In models that the ancient drew,
When men and art alike were new.
A skin of that exquisite tone,
That Titan's brush could paint alone.
Her lips! We loveliest roses blush,
That you have been denied their flush;
That rich and fine vermilliOn hue,
Worshipped by Gentle and by Jew.
A voice so mellow in its tone,
The flute might claim it for its own;
Now rising clear, now murmuring low,
AS mirth and sadness bid it flow.
A laugh as of metallic sound,
That rings in silvery notes around.
A dimpled cheek where love reposes
In his soft bed of blushing roses.
A rounded figure, full yet slight,
"Twixt that of Venus and of Sprite.
Walking, she seems crowned Queen;
Dancing, a nymph upon the green;
Sitting, a Goddess in her glory,
Ever theme for poets story.
