ments and experience have proved beyond doubt
that it controls nervous irritation and periodic ner
vous and sick headache to marked degree
But combination of the EXTRACT OF CELERY
AND CHAMoMILE, which has been but recently in
troduced to the profession and the public by myself
has produced such marvellous results in curing ner
vousness and headaches and especially nervous and
sick headaches, neuralgia indigestion and seepess-
ness that it has excited public attention and news
paper comments; and therefore, give the follow
ing information to the public to avoid answering
hundreds of letters of inquiry about them:
NY Celery and Chamomile Pills, for the cure of
headaches and nervousness, are prepared under my
supervision, and are intended expressly to cure
headache, neuralgia Indigestion sleeplessness and
nervousness and will cure any case where no or
ganic disease of the brain or spinal cord exists.
Hundreds of cases of many years standing have
been cured. No matter how chronic or obstinate
the case may be, permanent cure is morally GER
tain This statement is made after years of expert

AN instance of hereditary crime is fur
nished by Elias Phillips. of Freetown. Mass,
who recently appeared as witness in a
burglar trial, having turned States evidence.
He is great-grandson of Malbone Briggs, a
notorious criminal, who was in State Prison
with seven of his sons at one time Briggs
ancestry is traced back in a direct line to a
noted pirate in the time OF Earl Beilamont,
and his branch of the family has for m re
than century furnished noted criminals in
every generation. Phillips has only the use
of his left arm, his right one being withered,
but he recently made two keys by which a
store was entered; and he can sail boat,
shoot gun and do other things remarkable
under the circumstances.

THE Hon. Z. B. Washburn denies the re-
port that General Grant wrote him letter
not long ago stating that under no circum-
stances would he be candidate for the
Presidency. He says that the story was a
fabrication from beginning to end; that Cen
eral Grant, with whom he had been in regu-
lar correspondence during the entire round
the-world tour, has not alluded in any of
his letters to the Presidency OF politics
in any way. ''These letters were," said Mr..
Washburn, ''private in every particular, en-
uering interestingly into descriptions OF the
various countries through which the general
passed, referring to his family, passing COM
ments on incidents of his trip, and never
referring in any particular to politics.
Through all of them there ran the sentiment
of his desire to get home once more, where
he might be enabled to settle down and live
quietly" Mr.. Washburn adds that General
Grant will for the present make his home in
Galena, at the old homestead, and that his
townspeople are now putting the place in
thorough repair, and refurnishing it, max
ing everything heerful and attractive when
he returns.

REV. DIR. LEONARD BACON of Connecti-
cut, does not believe in biennial sessions of
the Legislature in order to save cost. He
speaks of the General Assembly of his own
State as gathered ''in lone large room in what
may be regarded as manufactory. The
work to be done is the making of laws for
Connecticut, and in that room we employ
two hundred and forty-siX men and pay
them wages to do the work which might be
done as expeditiously at least, and quite as
well, by half as many, at half the cost. My
nlan is to dismiss half the crowd of workmen
in that department, and SO save their wages.
The other plan is that instead OF compe-
tent number coming together once year to
do the years work and go home, the same
old crowd be brought together once in two
years TO do two years work at one heat. The
saving of cost in one case is Il matter of
arithmetic. The saving of cost in the other
case is matter of conjecture" DR.. Bacon
says thai within the last few years the cleo
ton of Senators lin Connecticut) has been
made biennial instead of annual, but is 1t
known aud confessed that the change has
made the Senate chamber more venerable
with the new dignity of orr 'conserlpt tath-
ers' or more resplendent with the light OF
their wsdom?'

COUNCILLOR FoGG gives as his opinion
that the Governor and Council acting as a

returns of elections for the Legislature.
Heretofore Mr.. Fogg has been known princi-

will give him fame as Constitutional law
yer. Henceforth he should be known as the

A WASHINGTON special says that when
Congress meets the Democratic members of
that body propose to set up the claim that
the revival of business is due to Democratic
control of the legislative branch of the Gov
ernment. Perhaps this accounts for the
fact that the Democratic papers which have
been protesting for months that business
had not revived are now beginning to admit
that they we're not telling the truth.
