81 was most severely afflicted with a
hard, dry cough with its usual accompani-
ment of night sweats completely prostrat-
ing my nervous system, and producing
such debilitated state Of health that, at
ter trying medical aid to no purpose had
given up all hopes of ever recovering, as
had also my friends. At this stage Of
matters was prevailed upon through the
influence of a neighbor to try WISTAR'S
BALSAM though with no belief whatever
in its truly wonderful curative properties
and before using two bottles the effect was
magical. My cough entirely left me, the
night sweats des erted me, hope once more
elevated my depressed spirits, and soon
had attained my wonted strength and Wig
or. Thus has this Balsam, as has often
been remarked by persons conversant
with the above facts in this vicinity, lit
orally snatched me from the grave. You
are at liberty to use this for the benefit Of
the afflicted ..-

A Cool Mother.

A few days ago lady In the Sixth
Ward was making moiasses candy for
her children. While removing the
melted liquid from the stove, her little
boy in his haste to obtain his portion,
stumbled against his mothers elbow,
upsetting the dish over her hand, burn
ing her hand in frightful manner.
She Immediately wrapped her hand up
in u cotton handkerchief and saturated
it with bottle of Wolcott's Pain Paint,
Keeping 1t constantly wet with the
remedy. The result was more than
wonderful; IL not only stopped all pain
In very short time, but her hand did
not even blister, AMI the next day Was
apparently as well as ever, with the en-
ceptiou of two small places where the
skin was actually burned off at the
time of the accident. She says that
with this remedy, she never fails i'm

Remarkable SaccoSS.

The success of the leading literary
paper of the West, The CHICAGO
LEDGER, is truly remarkable. Since
its introduction to the reading public,
six years ago, THE LEDGER has stendi-
ly advanced in favor, and Is now ac-
knowledgeJ second to no paper Of the
kind in the country. Its circulation In
national, and has been obtained through
the efforts of its publishers to oproduce a
paper of high moral character, and at
the same time sell it at a price consist
ent with the present hard times. That
they have succeeded, and well, too, the
thousands of readers of TIE LEDGER
scattered from Maine tn Texas ind
from Oregon to Florida will bear testi-
mony. The CHICAGO LEDGER Is q
large forty-eight column weekly paper,
which contains stories both complete
and continued, i'm each number, writ
ten by the best authors of the day, and
IL great variety of information interest
ing to every one. The subscription
price Of The LEDGER Is only $l.5J per
year, postage paid, and 1t Is equal in
every particular to other papers Of tile
same character which sell for So a year
Three copies of this valuable paper will
be sent to any one who sends 10 cents
and their address to TIE LEDuER, Chi
cago, Ill.

Somewhere down the stream of Time
on which we are floating is a beautiful
island called the by and By" II may
be just before us, beyond the next turn
OF the river, or we may not find it until
the stream disembogues into the stream
Of eternity. But we all look for it, from
infancy to old age, and dream that all
evil will be banished when we arrive at
that beautiful standby and By.
All day we float down the turbulent
stream; the blue color Of heaven burns
above US; the mysteries of God and i'm.
mortality stream in upon US with awfnl
splendors, and truths that have con.
founded tho loftiest intellects-truths
that in all ages have reused up the soul
from its foundations, baptized it with
reverence, killed il with love-environ
us with intensity, and ali the thoughts
OF the island are banished from the mind
But when the solemn gray of twilight
falls around our bark, in fancy we sec
our magical shores, green with the trees
Of beauty, fitting before US like stars
over the broad shadows OF years and our
longngs all turn to wander on its fairy
banks, and listen TO the silver voices OF
its inhabitants. And as the rosy flush
of the day fades in the west, and the
waiting stars open one after another
their holy eyes, we 90 to rest in the
happy belief that the morning sunrise
will gid this immortal island. full in our
vision-this cline we have sought so
long and vainly, and whatever have fed
all the Summer of our youth, that we
besought with tears TO stay.
a land Of promise is that BY and BY.
In it VIC all have possession, the an tici-
pated enjoyment OF which alone renders
life tolerable. The past has proven a
weary way; the present full of thorns
and beset with danger, but in the gol-
den BY and BY there is recompense for
all. There the broken heart shall be
healed and the weary spirit End rest.
Who shall sell his birthright in this
land? Though poverty, gloom. and de-
ISOLATION environ US here, we have veal
thy and loving friends in that fair cline
How eagerly we look for that island +!
If it were lail down on our chart, no
matter how distant. so that we knew
that it should surely come, wo should
be satisfied in the prospect. But no
Ariadne comes TO reveal its labyrinthian
secrets and VIC must be content in It's
anticipation, and possess it only in
our dreams.

BERNARD'S BIG FIGHT WITH
THE INDIANS.
Fifteen Hundred .Saooyes Routed.

SAN Francisco. June 2S.-In the re-
cent attack of Major Bernard's COM
mand upon the hostile Indians, the lat.
ter are reported to have had in tho
fight fifteen hundred warriors. The In.
dams were not aware of the presc nee
of the soldiers, and their stock was un.
guarded. The soldiers went silently
forward and attacked the savage force.
which was three times greater than ours.
When within five hundred yards of the
enemy, the order was given TO charge.
Captain McGregor's company was near
at hand, and they charged also. The
savages hed in dismay. Large numbers
of them were killed. The Indian camp
was destroyed by tho troops. Many Of
the hostiles were wounded. Colonel
Perry's company, as we'll as all the
troops engaged, are reported to have
done well. The loss Of the troops was
four killed and three wounded.

there is nothing for them in that eoun-

t-TT The pension bill which was pass

ion, and which was laid over by the Sc.
nate, will take from $50 600, 900 to $780,

try cannot afford to have such a meas.
ure as this become law and we hope
the Senate will weigh it we'll before they
pass it ext session.

the principal features of the bill:
In consequence Of death. from a cause
which originated in the United States

having prior title to such pension, pro.
yided that the rate OF pension for the in
tcrvcning time for which the arrears OF
pension are hereby guaranteed shall be
the same per month for which the pen

repeats such portion of the Revised Sta
tutes as provides that mo claim for pen
sion not prosecuted to a successful issue
