Bold and Heavy Bank Robbery In
Cambridge.

BosToE, March 16.-A heavy rob-
berry was committee this afternoon in
the Leichmere National Bank, Cam
bridge, and Second street, East Cam
bridge, about o'clock.
President Lewis Hall was sitting in
the parlor of the bank. The business
of the day being done and he was
about putting up the books, arrang-
ing papers or disposing of the money
in the vault, when buggy containing
man and woman, drove up to the
Cambridge street entrance. The wo-
man entered and requested Hill to
step to the door to.se q lady who de-
sired to transact some business. Hill
walked to the sidewalk with man
accompanying him. Tho woman said
she desired to purchase a draft on the
Providence Bank, and she began in q
deliberate manner to count out roll
of money.
Hall said he could not wait while
she counted the money, and returned
to his room, sat down to write, and in
few minutes he heard the buggy
drive hurriedly of. Suddenly sus-
pecting something wrong, he made a
hurried examination, and found q
small trunk which moment before
had contained $4,000, had been rifled.
Further examination showed that two
trunks which were in the vault, the
door of which stood partly open, had
been abstracted. The trunks contain
ed government bonds and other SCI
curities amounting to $47 600, the
property of different individuals left
In the custody of Hall for safe keep
ing.
From facts since ascertained it is
supposed that the robbery was done
by three men and q woman. 1t is
thought that two men were concealed
behind the door in the hall Of the
bank building when the President
passed out and though he could not
hare been absent two minutes thew

nocent people. The mistake that the
Republican press made in atlixing
calumny to Mr.. Davis was that re-
spect for the Southern cause would be
diminished by lessening the personal
dignity of the Southern chief. Now
that they have seen their error, why
continue the deception. The South
ern people do not believe the story as
to Mr.. Davis disguise. The school
books are even now erasing the pitt
full SANDER from their pages. His.o-
ry is no longer written by Northern
pens alone. Power has passed from
the grip of the party which tinkled
the little bell and confined men to
prison without trial. All things
have changed, and the South now
stands guiding, and to certain ex-
tent, controlling the destinies of the
country"
The Register speaks truly as to tho
ex-lcbel South's now guiding the des-
TIMES Of the country. 1t only re-
mains for tho democratic party to
obtain full control and then the South
will be the dictator of the govern
ment.

The Crisis.

What think you would be the result
if the earth should stop spinning
around the sun? We're you ever near
q large and intricate machine when
one of its wheels became clogged or
broken-near enough to hear the graf
ing, Earring clash, the sudden, deafen-
ing crash? Astronomers assure us
that precisely similar effects, only on
an uncomfortable grander scale, would
be produced if our earth-one of the
wheels in the universe machine
should suddenly cease its revolutions.
In other words, there would be gen.
erAl clash and crash of satellites,
planets, and systems. What we term
financial crisis are due to similar
causes. One of the wheels in the
finance-machine becomes clogged.
perhaps shattered. The terrible
Wall-street "crash," which follows is
communicated to every part of the
financial mechanism of the country.
But analogies do not stop here
There is that other mechanism, the
most intricate of all--sometimes call
ed an organism because it generates
its own forces-the human machine.
When one of its members fails to per-
form its Office, the whole system is
thrown into disorder. Members be-
fore considered unassailable, break
down under the unnatural pressure.
The shock comes, and utter prostra-
ton 10 the result. PREPARATION can
only be affected by the restoration of
the impaired parts and the re-adjus
ment of its levers,-the physical for
ces. There is one part of the machine
more liable to disorder than any 9th
er.-the livcr,-the great balance
wheel of the machine.
The liver being the great depurat-
ing or blood-cleansing organ of the
system, set it at work and the foul
corruptions which gender in the
blood, and rot out, az It were, the ma
chinery of life, are gradually expelled
from the system. For this purpose
DIR. Pierce's Golden Medical Discov-
cry, used daily, and DIR. Pierce's
Pleasant Purgative Pellets, taken in
very small doses, are pre-eminently
tho articles needed. They cure every
kind of humor from the worst scrof-
ula to the common pimple, blotch, or
eruption. Great eating ulcers kindly
heal under their mighty curative in
fluence. Virulent blood poisons that
lurk in the system are by them rob-
bed of their terrors, and by their per-
scvering and somewhat protracted
use the most tainted systems may be
completely renovated and built up
anew. Enlarged glands, tumors and
swcllings dwindle away and disap-
pear under the influence of these
great resolvents.

NEVER in our recollection has there
been such frequent and disgraceful
exhibitions Of drunkenness in Con-
gress as the present session has fur
nished. With democracy filling up
the halls Of Congress and each fresh
importation Of Southern chivalry,
comes the miserable drunken brag-
CART. The scenes witnessed in both
houses, this winter, have been most
disgraceful. The people of this land
ought to quicken the sense Of propri-
ETY., or decency, of the sober members
into taking the proper steps to repri-
mand and finally rid Congress Of the
presence of the drunken gabbler.
Some decent member of Congress
would gain the universal appreciation
Of the American people, if he would
make . move in this direction and
press it with vigor. If Congress it.
self has not self-respect sufficient to
do something in this matter the peo-
pie will inject some new material
that will teach the members self-re-
