The absurd country editors are begin
ming to inquire how long the present
Legislature is going to continue its ses
sion. Three months, almost, have been
passed, say they, and it is about time
something at least should be said about
an adjournment Such inquiries as these
are in bad taste, and are a reflection upon
the statesmen who hold sessions daily in
the Capitol and in our whisky saloons
Don't these editors suppose that the
members of the General Assembly know
their own business better than lot of
rural roosters,' who haven't the least
idea of the duties of statesman There
isn't a member of the Legislature who

at least that's what they all say, and of
course it must be so. And yet they are
assailed every day by intimations that
they are prolonging the session to an un-
necessary length. Republics always were

MY Child's Question

"Papa, what made you go to war ?''
Said Jennie, climbing from a chair
Upon my lap: what did you for?''
And then she hugged me like bear.
I" Cause if you hadn't gone, you see
You'd have two legs to canter me-"
why, child, went because"-and then
| stopped to think. OF course l knetO
I'd often told her brother Ben
When the recital thrilled me through.
And still she urged, "What did you for?
Papa, what made you go to to war?"
l looked abroad. The blacks were free,
But voicelesS votelesS, filled with woe
Slaves of their masters seemed to be
AS much as twenty years ago.
She said, "And what did Uncle DOrr
Get killed in front of Richmond for?"
4 rifle Club went wheeling by;
saw the murdered Chisholm's ghost;
/ heard the Hamburg martyrs cry
The rebel yell-the vaunting boast;
I saw the wounds of patriot dead;
''What made you go?" my Jennie said.
"My DEAR" l said-but nothing more,
For, glancing through the Senate walls,
The rebel Generals had the floor,
And ruled the Nations council halls!
"Papa," she urged, "Why did you go ?''
"My child" I said, 81 do not know"

1t is probably generally remembered
that some years ago-in 1S73-Congress
passed law providing for the erection Of
durable headstones over the graves OF
soldiers OF the regular and volunteer for
ces of the United States whose remains
are inferred in the National Military
Cemeteries This law has been carried
out and the graves of the Nations dead
in these cemeteries are now permanently
marked. At the instance of the War
Department., Congress has recently au
thorzed the erection of similar head
stones over the graves of the Union sold
iers who are buried in private and village
cemeteries This will be done as soon as
the necessary arrangements can be made.
In the meantime the Quartermaster Gen
eral, at Washington, will at once proceed
to collect the necessary information as to
where these headstones are required.
All persons having any knowledge OF
the burial places of soldiers in private
cemeteries whose graves are not marked
are requested to communicate the fact to
the Quartermaster General, and give reg
iment, company, and date of death of
deceased, if known. Similar information
is desired from parties in charge of such
cemeteries.
Of course it is not intended to furnish
headstones for graves over which monu
ments have already been erected by rela
tives or friends of the deceased.

SYMPTOMS of a Diseased Liver.

Symptoms of a Diseased Liver.
DAIN in the right side, under the edge
L of the ribs, increases on pressure;
sometimes the pain is in the left side;
the patient is rarely able to lie on the
left side; sometimes the pain is felt
under the shoulder blade, and it fire.
quently extends to the top of the shoul-
der, and is sometimes mistaken for
rheumatism in the arm. The stomach
is affected with loss Of appetite and
sickness; the bowels in general are
costive, sometimes alternative with lax;
the head is troubled with pain, accom-
panied with a dull, heavy sensation in
the back part. There is generally a
considerable loss of memory, accom-
panied with painful sensation of hay
ing left undone something which ought
to have been done. A slight, dry cough
is sometimes an attendant. The patient
complains of WEAKNESS and debility; he
is easily startled, his feet are cold or
burning, and he complains Of prlckly
sensation of the skin; his spirits are
low; and although he is satisfied that
exercise would be beneficial to him,
yet he can scarcely summon up fortl-
tude enough to try it. In fact, he dis
trusts every remedy. Several of the
above symptoms attend the disease, but
cases have occurred where few of them
existed, yet examination of the body,
after death, has shown the LIVER to
have been extensively deranged.
AGUE AND FEVER.
DR.. C. MCLANE's LIVER PILLS, IN
CASES OF AGUE AND FEVER, when taken
with Quinine, are productive of the
most happy results. No better cathartic
can be used, preparatory to, or after
taking Quinine. We would advise ali
who are afflicted with this disease to
give them a FAIR TRIAL.
For all bilious arrangements, and as
simple purgative, they are unequaled.

at is unnecessary for me to enumerate the
diseases for which the VEGETINE should be
used know of no disease which will not
admit of its use with good results. Almost
innumerable complaints are caused by poison

entirely expelled from the system by the use
of the VEGETINE. When the blood is perfectly
cleansed, the disease rapidly yields all pains

Ayers Ague Cure,


For Fever and Ague, Intermittent Fever,
Chill Fever, Remittent Fever, Dumb Ague,
Periodical or Bilious Fever, &C., and indeed
all the affections which arise from malarl-
GUS, marsh, or miaSnatic pOiSOnS.
This is a compound remedy, prepared with
scientific skill from vegetable ingredients, which
rarely fails to cure the severest cases of Chills
and Fever and the concomitant disorders. Such
a remedy the necessities of the people in maa-
rious districts demand. Its great superiority
over any other medicine yet etdiscovered for the
cure of Intermttents is, that it contains qui-
nine or mineral, and those who take it are free
from danger of quinism or any injurious effects,
and are as healthy after using it as before. 1t
has been extensively employed during the last
thirty years in the treatment of these distressing
disorders, and so unvaIying has been its success
that ithas gained the reputation of being nfal
liblG. 1t can, therefore, be safely recommended
as a sure remedy and specific for the Fever and
Ague of the West, and the Chills and Fever of
the South. 1t cOunteracts the miasmatic poison
in the blood, and frees the system from its infu-
ence, so that fever and aguc, shakes or chills,
once broken up by it, do not return until the
disease is again contracted.
The great variety of disorders which arise from
the irritation of this poison, such as Neuralgia,
Rheumatism, GOut, Headache, Blindness
TOothache, Earachc, Catarrh, Asthma, Pal
pitation, SpIenic Affections, Mysteries, Pain
in the Bowels, Collie, Paralysis and derangc-
of the Stomach, all of which become intermit-
tent or periodical, have no speedier remedy than
AYERS AGUE CURE, which cures them all alike,
and protects the system from future attacks As
a preventive, it is of immense service in those

ed pleasant looking youth, comforta-
bly, settled in a corner, to give up his
place to his female companion. A cheer
full answer in the affirmative was given,
but for this politeness the accommodate
ed parties returned no thanks. On the
contrary, they appeared to take it for
granted that every attention would be

The young fellow who had surrendered
his seat had in the meantime retired to

off, the lad stepped aside to let them
pass. But this did not suit the fastidi-

John S. Downing, who is believed to
have killed his wife Mary at their resi-
dence, No. 454 West Nineteenth Street,
was takento the Coroner's Office and
committed to the Tombs by Coroner
Woltman. Coroner Woltman and DR..
Cushman went to the rooms lately oc-
cupied by Downing and his wife, and
DR.. Cushman made an autopsy on the
body of the dead woman. The exam
nation disclosed some horrible facts in
connection with the murder, showing
that Mrs. Downing had been beaten or
kicked to death, and that several bones
of her body had afterwards been broken.
DR.. Cushman made the following state
MT NJ of the examination: 81 made an
autopsy of the body of Mary Downing
at 454 West Nineteenth Street. On ex-
ternal examination found ecchypmoses
over the back, chest, abdomen, both
arms, and bruises and abrasions over
the face and head. On removing the
scalp l found large extrayasations OF
blood beneath it on both sides and back
of the head. On opening the thorax L
found fractures of the fourth, fifth,
sixth, seventh and eighth ribs on the
right side, the brokon fragments of the
seventh and eighth ribs penetrating the

fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth, ninth and
tenth ribs on the left side, the broken
surfaces of the fifth and sixth ribs pene-
trating the lungs, causing extravasation

Extravasation of blood was also found
in the abdomen. Death, in my opinion,

4 CHRISTMAS DREAM.

Twas Christmas eve, snow drifting deep,
But all the house was warm ana bright
And granGmamma lay last asleep,
The scarlet silk and laces white
Making glow of tender grace
over the calm and placid face,
Where smiles were fitting to and fro,
Where sudden lights and shadows fall.
CHILDREN, step lightly and speak low,
And softly spread the teecy shawl;
Her dreaming soul mayhap doth keep
Some farer Christmas i'll its sleep
Then quickly DER the household steals
The hush of thoughtful loving calm,
Until through waiting silence peals,
Like jubilant, triumphant psalm,
The ringing, singing bells that say,
" o-morrow, friends, is Christmas Day
The sleeper woke, and lay serene
With clasped hands upon her breast,
Dear God" she said, 80 sweet a dream!
Could it come true, were so blest,
SO best! such Christmas feast to Keep
All, Mary, have been asleep,
" And dreaming, dear-a wondrous dream;
| saw my home so strangely talr;
It's halls with such soft lights did gleami
Its gardens were beyond compare;
And, 10! heard voice which sald,
Come, love, the Christmas least Is spreau'
" Your fathers voice, dear child, / know;
1t ringeth yet through heart and brain
Ii called me fifty years ago,
Just so it called tonight again.
O faithful lovel o blessed homel
Do not weary till Gomez?
she lay all night with wistful eyes,
b To earthly love both deaf and dumb;
But lust as dawn touched Christmas skies
She cried aloud, "Sweet love, | come"
And none could weep, for that they knew
Her happy Christmas dream was true.
