that person known to be infected with 1t
would not be allowed tt mix with society
The Jews regarded 1t as divine infection
and believed there was no cure for 1t: 1t
was then the sins ofa youth or a diviatlon
from the paths Of virtue were punished as
long as life lasted. Happily In our, day,
the sience of medicine has been developed
the great storehouse of Maj ure furnishes q
remedy the disease is stripped of Its ter
ror by the use of the SA SAMARITAN'SR ROOT
AND HERB JUICES, and the victim OF
scrofula, Ulcers, Sores, Pimpies, Blotches,
litter, etc., can be restored to sound health
in q few weeks. That there are thousands
now whose conditions are as bad rs those
OF the dark ages we are well aware. Many
now fail to find q cure as well as they did
then, To all such the Samaritan's Root

Republicans of Illinois.

The Republicans of Illinois, on June 26,
nominated General ] C. Smith for State
Treasurer, and candidates for Clerks of the
Appellate and Supreme Court. The Com
mittee on Platform made the following
report:
Republican party of Illinois, in Conv vention
assembled, hereby declare our unaltering
faith in the principles and patriotism of the
Republican party, State and National, and
in its permanent fitness and ability over all
other parties to administer the Government
of both state and nation wisely and sue
cessfully; that Democratic party, being
largely composed of recent rebels and their
sympathizers, can not be safely intrusted
with the administration of the affairs of the
Government; that the partial success of
the party in Congress, as well as in several
of the States, unly shows it's grossly
partisan character and general inca acity
and lack of honor and patriot SIN. For
the financial system created by the Re-
publican party during the war, and in
spite of the violent opposition of the
Democratic party we express our unquali-
| fed admiration. By its provisions the peo-
| pie have been supplied with larger amount
of paper currency, safer and more uniform
| in value, than they have ever before en-
| joyed. The credit of the nation has steadily
improved, while both the principal and in
burdens of National taxation has been
steadily diminished. Such results can only
be pronuced by honesty, economy, and wis
dom in the management of public affairs.
We are opposed to any further contraction
of the greenback currency, and are in favor
| of such currency as can be maintained al
par with, and convertible into coin at the
| will of the holder. We favor such currency
/ being received for import duties, and depre
cate the defeat of the recent bill for tnat
purpose by the Democratic House of Repre-
sentatives. The permanent pacifcation of the
Southern section of the Union, and the com
plete protection of all its citizens in all theil
civil, political, personal, and propert!
rights, is duty to which the party stand
sacredly pledged. In order to redeem thi
pledge it placed the recent Amendments il
the Constitution of the United States, a,
upon the righteous ba>e of said Amend
ments, it will go forward in the work o
pacifcation until peace shall come througl
right-doing and contentment through jus
tice. That the Criminal Code shall b
amended for the protection of depositors i
Savings Banks by providing for the punis
ment of dishonest bank managers; ant
finally, be it
Resotred. That those who preserved th
country should govern it instead of thos
. who attempted to destroy it."
!; The platform was unanimously adopted

WILLIAM CULLEN BRYANT's summer
residence was at the home of his boy
hood, in Cummington among the hills
of western Massachusetts,. The farm is
rough, and the house stands on what is
called lions Hill. Some of the land
has been made fertile by draining and en-
riching. Mr.. Bryant bought the place
about twelve years ago, and partly re-
built the old house, which is two stories
in height, painted brown, and has a
dormered roof. He spent several months
of every fall and summer there, and his
daughters lived with him or in the
neighborhood. He usually walked sew
eral miles to church every Sunday, and
invariably slept through the sermon.
A writer in the Springfield Republican
says: " He lived almost out of doors,
caring little for the weather, and ready
with an ak or pruning knife or anything
that gave hearty exercise. At seventy
five he could leap into the air, catch a
bough, and swing himself along by it
ike very boy, and we p resume he
could even later than that. Any one
driving or walking in that vicinity was
liable to spy the poet in the woods or in
the field under broad-brimmed straw
hat, his great snowy beard and slender
figure attracting the eye among any
number of other men and his intense
wiry way of walking, as if it was no
effort at all, but something purely me
chanical, was very peculiar"

The difficulty Of providing horses
with forage in war has set the ingenious
10 work in endeavoring to compound a
condensed horse biscuit, and Col. Ra-
velli, an Italian officer, seems to have
been very successful in this respect. By
direction of the Minister of War, very
careful experiments have lately been
made with cavalry horses, and COM
mission report that not only when the
biscuit is administered with proper care
Is IL consumed with appetite and easily
digested, but that the horses fed upon
IL actually increased in vigor. There is
really nothing new in this, for three
centuries ago hors-s in England were
often fed in the same way.

More of the Mystery of the Mind.

The Louisville Medical Netrs says:
The following psychological incident,
which was told to me by gentleman OF
undoubted veracity, may prove OF inter
est to those of your readers who are
studying the occult phases OF nervous
phenomena. The narrator, man OF
nervous organization, was taking his
afternoon siesta, his daughter, young
lady of seventeen, sitting by his side,
with her hand in his, and reading. As
he passed from the wakeful state into
one of semi-slumber he saw, or seemed
to see, appear at the feot of his bed a
tall man, with sorrowful expression on
his face, who, bending down tenderly,
lifted up coffin and disappeared. He
was so disturbed by the strange and un-
accountable nature of his vision that,
after tossing restlessly for a few mo-
ments, he opened his eyes and said,
" Daughter, believe can not sleep to-
day, and I will get up" Looking up
from her book, in which she was evil
IDENTIFY deeply absorbed, she said, Papa,
this is a strange book that am reading.
"What is itF' said he. The Life OF
Marie Antoinette," she replied, and
then read from the pages before her re.
cital of the exact incident that had just
constituted his dream.

FOREIGN SUMMARY.

A BERLIN dispatch reports France, italy
and Germany warmly in support of the
Greek claims for the extension of territory.
A BERLIN dispatch says the Turkish dele
gates at the Tuesdays sitting Of the
Congress consented to the evacuation of
Varna.
THE London Times says: The Congress,
like most reasonable assemblies, has disap-
pointed equally both the extreme views
which had been taken of its prospects. 1t
has been sitting for not more than fort
night, but questions which threatned most
directly the peace of Europe have been, in
substance, solved, England having secured
the barrier of the Belkans to Turkey. No
compromise on minor points destroys the
value of such concession.
