A Cloud OF Witnesses.

For nearly quarter OF q century Dr.. 9age's
Catarrh Remedy has been acknowledged by the
people as positive cure for all catarrhal af-
fectiong. Its great popularity with physicians
and patients, together with its constantly-in-
creasing sale, attests, in arguments stronger
than words, its healing power. If there be
general or nervous debility and Impoverished
blood, DIR. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
should be used in connection with the Catarrh
Remedy. The following named parties are
among the thousands who have been cured of
cotarrh By the use Of DR.. Sage's Catarrh

what the Bilious Require.

Since torpidity Of the liver is the chief cause
Of its disorder, it is evident that what the bill
ious require is an alternative stimulant which
will arouse it to activity, effect that is fol-
lowed by the disappearance OF the various
symptoms indicative of its arrangement. Hos
letters Stomach Bitters invariably achieve the
primary result mentioned, besides removing
the constipation, fatulence, heartburn, yellow
ness Of the skin and whites Of the eyes, pain
in the right side and under the right shoulder,
nausea, vertigo and sick headache, to which
bilious invalids are peculiarly subject. AS a
remedy for chronic indigestion, mental de-
spondency, and nervousness, the Bitters are
equally efheacious, and, as renova1ltof lost yig-
Or, q means of arresting premature decay, and
q source Of relief from the intir1nities to which
the gentler sex is peculiarly subject, they may
be thoroughly relied upon.

The authority of which this outrage upon
the personal liberty OF q citizen Of your State
has been eommitted2
We remember years ago. when boy, how
the proud blood coursed through our veins
when the news came that captain Of an
American man-of-war, In foreign port, had
threatened to open his guns upon q city OF o
great nation II an outrage upon q natural
lied citizen Of tho United States was not
promptly repaired 1t Is the glory OF our
country that the American flag protects every
man who claims allegiance to 1t: it Is the
policy of the Republic to use the armies and
navies, and all the treasures OF the govern
ment to protect the personal liberty
not of it's subjects, but Of its
people, under any and oil circumstances.
Shall it be said then that the Democratic
Legislature of Louisiana calmly contemplated
an outrage, such as that we have described,
upon one Of their fellow citizens. and refused
to strike down the power that instigated it2
We trust not. If this Legislature fails to
repeal the Ubiquitous act which gives the Lot
terry Company such power over free citizens.
If 1t stands by and sees things like this per-
petrated, and I'D ourns leaving d formidable
monopoly in our midst to dsorganize our
party and threaten us with defeat, Its record
will be one of shame, and the people will write

Converse. The honor Of the State was not In
volved In this matter any more than 1t Is in
volved In the prosecution and punishment Of
any other infraetion Of it's criminal laws. The
honor OF the State, instead OF being vindieated
by the legal proceedings thus far, "itseems to
us cannot be indicated except by the punish
ment OF this forger and all other criminals
and violators Of it's laws. It's honor. it seems
to us, can only be maintained unsullied by
treating all criminals Of q class alike; by its
officials keeping the fountains and cur
rents of justice unsullied by politics and
unrui1led by human weaknesses.
We cannot understand how the honor of
the State can be advanced by pardoning q
forger like Anderson, and hurting oil the
vengeance OF its criminal laws upon some
poor wretch who FORCES his employers
namo to buy bread for his wife and chill
dren. We cannot understand how Chris
tian charity requires Gov. Nichols to par
don U. 9. Anderson while he refuses ex-
ecutive clemency to all the other criminals
now in the State Prison. We do not compre-
bend the quality of mercy which falls like q
benedietion upon the head of Il man whose in
telligence realized the enormity OF his crime
and whose wealth placed him beyond the
necessity of crime and which pours no kind
ly dews upon the rnined lives and hopeless
prisons of poor wretehes whose crimes were
prompted, not by native depravity, but by
poverty, misery and want.
We have very great regard for Mr.. Con
verse: we have a high esteem for the Chris
tlan sentiments which prompted him TO APP
peal for the pardon Of the criminal his sense
of justice aided in conviotipg. But in behalf Of
the people OF Louisiana we make a counter
appeal to Gov. Nichols to lot Gen. Anderson
endure the full penalty of his crime

The great Scottish giant William
Campbell died at New Castle on the aoth
OF May, at the ageof 20. After his death
it was a problem how to get him buried.
The following account of the funeral is
from the New Castle Chronicle.
He weighed 72S pounds, and was 6 #.
311 inches high. For q giant he lived
in somewhat circumscribed quarters, and
at first 1t was thought it would be neces.
sary to remove the roof to get him in
his coffin. Finally a window was en-
larged and That difficulty was solved.
How to get it and the dead giant out
was the next problem. The two weigh
ed o ton. At last q derrick was procured
and they were hoisted out. A thousand
persons witnessed the funeral, and the
c~rowding scene at the grave was disgrace
full.
