Ponds Extract.

Among the many excellent Family Medi-
cines which have from time to time appeared
before the public, there is not one so generally
useful, so simple, and so truly curative as
Ponds Extract. A glance over the long cata-
logue OF ills and diseases which it is reputed
to cure, will convince us, if any faith can be
placed in human testimony, that tnis is one OF
the rarest and most useful medicines, II not
the most truly valuable remedy ever made
known. For nearly thirty years it has been in
extensive use among the people and profess
sion; and though its claims have been thou
sand times subjected to searching scrutiny,
yet in every instance these claims have been
triumphantly indicated. Tho people, to
whom, from long use and experience it has
become indispensable, have universally given
1t their approval; and the medical profession,
though generally slow to admit new medi.
cine, or to indorse anything but their own
practice, have in thousands Of instances
adopted it, and not only use it freely, but
cheerfully recommend it. Like true friend
the more we use it and know it the better VIZ

The scourge that swept slavery into

institution. The results that made
slavery impossible b!otted from the
Southern social system the patriarchal

Nourished into life by slavery, it soon
became one of the features of Southern
vilzation-a peculiar feature, indeed,
and one which Tor many years eXerted a

societr, and it is not to be doubted that
it's demolition has been more deep.

THERE is movement on foot among
inventors looking toward the abolish
ment of the agents fee, examination
charges and expense Of models, which,
with other Patent Office fees, average
about $100 ON each patent granted. 1t
is proposed that patents be allowed to
all who apply, as in England and Ger
many, and that all questions OF in
vention or priority be determined in
Courts. This will reduce the expense
10 the mere cost of the drawing, the
printed specification and the patent,
which altogether would not exceed
IS. While this would no doubt in
crease the number of useless patents,
it would undoubtedly be of great ad-
vantage to many poor Inventors who
have heretofore been forced to abandon
their projects or transfer them to men
Of capital.

A writer reYives the famillar o4d story

violation of it. Ropes passing oyel

FRAUDS IN THE INDIAN BUREAU

FRAUDS IN THE INDIAN BUREAU.
The very thorough investigation that
has been going on for the past six
months by the Special Committee ar
pointed by Secretary Schurz has uncOv-
cred to the public gaze system of viii
tairs that is truly startling. 1t has been
long known that the red man was being
unfairly dealt with, and that his fire.
queut acts of hostility were too well
justified by the many provooations he
has received. These malfeasances had
been generally attributed to the Indian
traders and agents-people who had di.
rect dealing with the Indians. This in.
vestigation, however, reveals the fact
that the worst form of criminality
existed in the Indian Bureau itself, and
that corruption, fraud and peculatior
had been going on for these many years
past at Washington.
The subsidies and gratuities of the
nation have been passing through the
| hands Of regularly organized Indiar
| Ring, and large percentage OF them
nave stuck there. The Secretary OF the
Interior has commenced a good work

WE are informed that, through the per sonal efforts of Capt. 1. Polhamus, the Co. dorado river will be stocked with fish 1; much credit is due Capt. Polhamus as, though unaided, he has persevered in his en- deavors and now arrangements have been made for 8 lot of catfish to arrive in August or September. This fish has been select ed for the first experiment on accont of its being better adapted to the waters of our river and it beinG the kind most readily accessible. This is an undertaking that the Government should assist in, and while doing so much for other rivers and sections of the country should turn its attention to the Colorado and Arizona. Our readers will, in due season. hear more from us on thls subject.

POSTERS on our bulletin boards inform ed the people of a Grand Rally to take place at the Courthouse on Thursday at 9 a. m Steps toward celebrating the day in public manner had been deferred till too late for much concerted action and the attendance was not as large as it would perhaps otherwise have been. The Court room was tastefully decorated by Mir. James Quinlan with national flags, two being forty feet long, and gracefully fes- tooned; in fact much is due to him as he cheerfully gave personal time and atten- ton and provided the string band that furnished the instrumental music. Mir. w. H. Tonge called the assembly to order and moved that Mir. Purdy be made pres ident of the meeting, which was unani- mously carried. Mr. Tonge then address ed some appropriate, well put and well delivered remarks. He was followed by Judge C. H. Brinley, who read the Declara, tion of Independence. Mir. Samuel Pnr dy, Jrs, then made a few remarks and Mr. Hughey Robinson sang song, Independ- ence One Hundred Years Ago." which was duly applauded. The harp and violin added much to the amenities of the occa- sion.
