Sores, Rheumatism, Neuralgia, Pain in

Weakness. Sterility, Leucorrhoea, arising
from internal liberation, and Uterine
disease, Syphilitic and Mercurial dis
eases, Dropsy, Dyspepsia, Emaciation,
General Debility, and for Purifying the
Blood.
This Sarsaparillais a combination OF
vegetable alternatives = Stillingla, Man
drake, Yellow Dock with the lodldes
of Potassium and Iron, and is the most
etficacious medicine yet known Tor
the diseases it is intended to cure.
It's ingredients are so skilfuliy com
bined, that the full Alternative effect OF
each is assured, and while it is so mild
as to be harmless even to children, it is
still so effectual as to purge out from the
system those impurities and corruptions
which develop into loathsome disease.
The reputation it enjoys is derived
from its cures, and the confidence which
prominent physicians all over the coun-
try repose in it, prove their experience
of its usefulness.
Certificates attesting its virtues have
accumulated, and are constantly being
received, and as many of these cases are
publicly known, they furnish convincing
evidence Of the superiority of this Sar-
saparilla over every other Alternative
medicine. So generally is its superb
ority to any other medicine known, that
we need do no more than to assure the
public that the best qualities it has ever
,ossiSss 1t are strictly maintained.

Saturday in the House Mckinley
and Blackburn Lad a little difference.
Last week Mckinley made a speech in
which he charged Blackburn with say
ing in previous speech that we do
not intend to stop until we have
stricken the last vcstige of your war
measures from the statute book"
Blackburn complained that there were
qualifying words omitted from the
sentence and that thus he had been mis-
represented. This was not truc, as the
qualifying words were added to the
stenOgrapher's report of the speech and
were never uttered in the House. The
matter is explained in the following
dispatch, dated Saturday:
This afternoon was both an exciting
and amusing one in the House Early
in the afternoon Mr. Frye took Occa-
sion TO read some extracts from the
! OkdIORd States, a newspaper, cOmpli-
mentary to Mr. Blackburn for his ut
| tcrmces regarding the repeal of war
measures. This brought Chairman
! blackburn down from his place again
/ 10 .ttcmpt to force an explanation for
4 third time from Republicans who
| had chosen to criticise lis remarks, but
4 like on the other occasions, lac WAS
| unsuccessful. Mr.. Frye handled him
| for Il few minutes, when Major Nc
/ kinley took hold and asked him some
| leading questions concerning his now
notorious threat tC wipe out the war
measures. The first that he asked him
was whether h0 had published his
speech in the Record as lac had deliver
ed il. To tins Mr.. Blackburn was
forced 10 say that he had added a few
words in this sentence: I'VE do not
intend TO stop until we have stricken
the last Yestige Of Your war measures
from the statute book, whichIwere born
of the passion incident of civil strife,
and looked alone to the abTidgement of
the liberty of tine citizen" "Then,"
Mr.. Mckinley said, "the speech you
charged me with garbling yesterday
WIS not the one really that you deliy-
cred" Mr.. Blackburn admitted that il
WAS not exactly like it. Then McKin-
lev asked him if the tract containing
another version of the speech which
Blackburn sent TO him from the chair,
which had the marginal note on il,
~Why be SO unfair rs TO garble a sen
tence this way was like the RecOrd,
and Blackburd again admitted that it
was no. Mckinley then charged Black
burn with having sent him an uttered
copy OF an altered report of his speech,
and making great fuss because he
did not read the entire sentence. 4
subsequent investigation shows that
Blackburn added eleven words tOning
down his original threat, while McKin-
ley left out nine words of the cOmplet-
ed sentence, so that instead of garbling
Blackburn's real speech he had actu-
ally added two words TO it. After all
of the COnfederate's bluster this left |
him in somewhat of bad plight, and |
the scene ended. While it lasted both |
speakers spoke with great eaneStness, |
and the members crowded around them |
in a circle TO watch the contest.
