NTedfcal Oualities of Lemons

Since the regular arrival of vessels in
the larger cities with tropical fruit, the
supply of these luxuries has been i'm
mense of late5 and, in fact, they are
plenty all the year through, and prices
are now within the reach of all. Lem
Ons, especially, are valuable through the
heated term, and formerly sold at from
6 to Is cents each. Now the best quality
of fruit can be purchased at % cents per
dozen, and in the winter season, nearly
all the time. at from to cents each.
In reference to the virtues of the lemon
an eminent physician has this to say
' Lemon juice is the best antisCOrbutic
remedy known. It not only cures the
disease but prevents it. Sailors make Il
daily use of it for this purpose. I advise
every one to rub their gnms with lemon
| juice to keep them in health. The hands
and nails are also kept clean, white, soft
and supple by the daily use of lemon in
| Lemon is used in intermittent fevers,
mixed with strong, hot, black coffee
without sugar. Neuralgia may be cured
| by rubbing the part affected with a cut
| lemon. 1t is valuable, also, to cure warts
and to destroy dandruff on the head by
| rubbing the roots of the hair with it. In
4 fact, its uses are manifold, and the more
we employ it externally the better we
shall find ourselves. Natural remedies
are the best, and nature is our best doc
tor, if we would only listen to it,. De-
cidedly, rub your hands, head and gums
with lemon, and drink lemonade in pref
erence to all other liquids"
The New York Evening Mail gives
the substance of General Stewart L.
WoOdfOrd's great speech, recently deIiv-
cred in New York. That paper says OF
the General, that fresh form his expert
ence in Mississippi Gas the chivalrOus
Il
he was exceedingly earnest in his de-
lineatiOn of the various Objectionable and
dangerous phases of southern sOlidity
which he denounced because it Crushes
out political education; because it has
whipped the negro into silence, and be-
cause it abOlishes the use of logic, reason
| and education in political contests. Bu
the sOlidity of the South, he fOrcibly urg
ed, had produced, not peace, but S'thf
quite of the graveyard;" and he believe,
that even in the South there are ga few
, young men whose faces are turned toward
the sunrise, and who pray for bette
things for the land that is to be- HI
added: 1.-The South is solid, but ther,
are workers there who are praying tina
their children may grow up to have tn
same common schools we have here. Th
South is solid, but because l believe il
the force of free thought, a free press an(
speech, because I believe that freedom i
the electricity of the nations, that goe
under the sea, and finds its way and show
its power in every land and under ever,
system, because 1 believe that the Norti
with schools and spelling-boolIs will whi1
the South just as it whipped them witt
bullets and bayonets, believe that tn
: time is coming when once more ationa
republican victory shall break and shive
: the solid South to pieces.' Whoever W
have for President, whether Sherman
= Washburne or Grant, let us put Wood
ford on the ticket for Vice President
p, The Republic was for WOodford, fou
f years ago, and is for WOodfOrd now.
