There are many at the age Of thirty to
sixty who are troubled with to frequent
evacuation of the bladder, often accom-
panied by slight smarting or burning
sensation, and weakening of the system
in a manner the patient cannot account
for. On examining the urinary deposits q
ropy sediment will often be found and
sometimes small particles of albumen will
appear, or the color will be of a thin milk
ish hue, again changing to dark and
torpid appearance. There are many mer
who die of this difficulty ignorant of the
cause. which is the second stage of semin
al weakness. DR.. s. will guarantee a per
feet cure in all such cases, and q healthy
restorati IN of the genito-urinary organs.

NApAvNE.-A correspondent gives
US some very interesting facts relat-
ing to this thriving little village,
which has sprung into existence as
a way-station on the Northern Pa
cifc Railroad. 1t has store and
Postoffice, under the control of
James Urquhart & Son, a boot and
shoe maker, a dress maker, a Justice
of the Peace, day-school already
and Sunday school in contempla-
ton. The principal industry of this
place is the manufacture and ship
ment of cedar bolts to the tub and
bucket factories of Portland. A
steam and water mill are situated
within easy access of town, and fine
cedar timber may be found in unlim-
tied quantities within a radius of q
few miles. Last Summer, from three
to five cords q week, were shipped
for the Portland market. The coun-
try surrounding Napavine is well
adapted to farming. The beautiful
Cowlitz Prairie, and the Newaukum-
with its fertile acres, are nearer Ma
pavine than any other station OF the
Northern Pacific road. 1t is, like
wise, the nearest point to the Upper
Cowlitz river, including the thriving
Clickitat settlement, and to the peo-
pie of Boisfort prairie. While Lew
is county is so famous, both as on
agricultural and stock-raising dis
taicf, it might seem invidious to in
stitute Il comparison, but it can safe
ly be said that Napavine has as
much or more of desirable land fol-
settlement within easy access, than
any other point enjoying communi'
cation with the outer world.

A number of gentlemen, who were
in masque, left the hall before they
unmasqued, and consequently we
were unable to ascertain their dis
cruises. A notable feature of the
bail, although but poorly attended,
was the genuine heartiness which
which all present enjoyed them
selves. The music, by Prof. White,
was very good.

Since 1866 in the City of Co.

seven cotton factories, without call

to do it with, and there are now ope-

looms. The year past these seven
cotton factories have concurred a.
365 bales of cotton. This is as it

1868, she drew young George Doug
lass, the stripping brother Of Will
liam Douglas, the Governor of Lock

Of efecting her escape. The youth
was won completely. On the even
ing of the second Of day of May,
1868, the keeper and his family be-
ing Of Table, George aaized the keys
and fed across the lake with the
royal prisoner. For this romantic
allegiance Queen .Iary psescntea to
George Douglas lock Of her hair.
Now it SO came about that as time
rolled on this lock--of & siiken tex
ture and beautiful pale auburn--was
found among some old papers at
"Wishaw," one Of the estates OF the
Douglas family. Andas time again
passed when the late Johu Carol

the lock, and, dying seven years az
forwards, in 1S47, beqneathed it to

The Southern Historical Society
Papers for September, contain the
following extracts from private
letter from Gen. r. Z. Ice:
AS to the battle OF Gettysburg, /
must again refer you to official ac-
counts. Its loss was occasioncd by
0 combination Of circumstances. 1t
was commenced in the absence Of
correct intelligence. 1t was contin-
ued in the effort to overcome The diff
ficulties by which we were surround
ed, and it wonld have been gained
could one determined and united
blow have been delivered by our
whole line. As it:was, victory trem-
bled in the balance for three davs,
and the battle resulted in the ihflic-
ton Of as great On amount Of injury
as was received, and in frustrating
-. +
the Federal campaign For the season.
] think you will find The answer to
your third question il. my report Of
the battle Of fredericksburg In ia
king up the position there it, was
with the view Of resisting General
Burnside sadyance after crossing tho
Rappahannock, rather than of pre-.
venting the passage. The plain Of
Fredericksburg is completely com.
manded by tile heights Of Stafford,
which prevented our occupying it iu
the first instance. Nearly Tie whole
loss that our army sustained during
the battle arose from the pursuit. Of
the repulsed Federal columns into
tue plain. 70 have advanced the
whole army into the plain for the
purpose of attacking Gen. Burnside
would have been to have Insured its
destruction by the Gre frosu the con-
tinued line Of guns on the Stafford
Ihilis. 1t was considered more wise
to meet the Federal army beyond
the reach of their batteries than IN.
der their muzzles, and even to invite
repeated renewal of their attaclss.
When convinced OF their i.lulility it
was easy for thcmIunder cover of a
longedark, and tempestuous night,
to cross the narrow river by means
of their nnnerous bridges before we
coald ascertain their purpose.
