This 's n compound remedy, prepared with
sclchtihc skil from vegetable ingredients, which
rarely fails to cure the scycrest cases OF Chills
and Fever and the concomitant disorders. Such
remedy the necessities of the people in mala-
rlous districts demand. Its great superiority
over any other medicine yet discovered for tho
cure OF Intcrmitcnts is, that it contains no aui.
nine or mineral, and those who take it are FREQ
irom danger OF quinism or any injurious effects,
and are rs healthy after using it rs before. It
has been extensively employed during tho last
thirty years in the treatment Of these distressing
disorders, and so unvaryiDg has been its SUCCESS
that ithas gained the reputation Of being infal.
hble 1t can, therefore, be safely recommended
as sure remedy and specific for tho Fever and

TOTAL ABSTINENCE SAVING WINE Till, IT
RIPENS,

There Is curious story about some native
DAYS. and have only recently been put upon
the market. DR.. Underhill the well-known
grape-grower Of Croton Point died in 1871
Some OF his heirs entertained temperance
views Of such extreme kind, that they were
unwilling to allow the stock Of wines then on
hand to be sold or any more to be made
Ihe grapes have sometimes been sent to
market, and sometimes left to decay upon
the vines. 1t is only now that the other heirs
have succeeded in arranging for a settlement
OF the estate and the sale of the wines OH
hand. Among these is n wine Of the vintage
Of 1864, described as n Sweet Union Port,
but suggesting the Imperial Tokay more
than any other Eurol> ..n wine, and being
wholly unlike any other wine Of American
growth. Its purity. age and mellowness are
fanciers have special interest in it as the
Oldest native wine now accessible in any con-
siderable quantity. The whole stock is in the
hands Of the weli-known wholesale grocery
house Of the Thnrbers.-N. y. 7;11aaS,
Nov. I2, 1877.
The above speaks for itself. but we would
add that this is the pure juice Of the grape.
neither d,xgged Hquo,sd nor 7Oake,ea, that 1t
has been ripened and mcllowcd by age. and
for medicinal or sacramental purposes 1t is
unsurpassed. It can be obtained from most
OF the leading Druggists throughout the
United States. and at wholesale from tho
undersigned. who will forward descriptive
pamphlet, free Of charge, on application.

The HOUSE Distr,ct Committee,

The House District Committee held short
session yesterday. The District Commission
ers were at the Capitol and confesred with the
members Of the committee upon several mat.
ters. There was an informal discussion of tho
plan prepared by the District Commissioners
for funding all the various District Of Colum.
bia bonds into per ccnts. Although no vote
was taken on the subject, the discussion seemed
to indicate that the committee will not indorsc
the scheme, several members expressing opin-
ions that II Is impracticablc, or that its adop.
tion would IN the eud prove an expensive un.
dertaking for the District. The omission, by
an error In cngrossing tho sundry civil bill Of
last year, to fix the rate Of interest OF the bonds
authorized to be issued for tho redemption Of
tho tcn-year and tho Georgetown pump bonds
was discussed. In order to correct the defect a
hill will be offered in the House next week
fixing the rate Of interest ut q per cent.
