GUS, marsh, or miaSmatic 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 tie necessities of the people in mala-
riOUs districts demand. Its great superiority
over any other medicine yet discovered for the
cure of Intermittents is, that it contains no qui-
nine or mineral, and those who take it are free
from danger ofquinism 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 CT these distressing
disorders, and so unvarying has been its success
that - ithas gained the reputation Of being mfal-
Eble - II can therefore, be safely recommended
as & sure remedy and specific for the Fever and
Ague of the West, and the ChiIls and Fever Of
he South 1t counteracts the miasmatic poison
in the blood, and frees the system from its infu-
ent e, SO that fever and ague, shakes chills,
one, ! broken up by il, do notrctllrn until the

The great variety of disorders which arise from
the irril alton of this poison such as Neuralgia,
Rheunl. .atism, Gout, Headache, Blindness,
Toothac,Ie, Earache, Catarrh, Asthma, Pal
pitation. Splenic Affections, Mysteries, Pain
in the Bow els, Collie, Paralysis, and derange
of fhe Stor11 acll, all OfWhich become intermit-
tent or period cal, have no speedIer remedy than
AYERS AGUE CURE, which cures them all alike,
and protects the system from future attacks. As
n preventive it IS of immense service in those
communities where Fever and Ague prevails, as
it STAYS the development of the disease if taken
on the first approach ofthe premonitOry sylnp-
toms. Travellers and temporary residents are
thus enabled to defy these disorders, and few
will ever suffer if they avail themselves Of the
protection this remedy affords.
For Liver Complaints, arising from torpidity,
it is an excellent remedy; it stimulates this organ
into healthy activity, and produces many remark
oIIe cures where other medicines fail.

Execution OF SOlOyieG.

The Paris Figaro contains an account Of
the execution OF Soloviet, the would be as
sassin of the Gar of Russia. The prisoner
ssys the writer was pale but collected,
and his expression was that OF defiance.
Round his neck was hung a small black
placard bearing in white letters the inscrip-
tion State criminal" He got down un-
aided from the cart in which he had been
conveyed TO the scene OF execution, and
looked hxedly at the scstfJld, which he
immediately afterward ascended. The
authorities took their place in front of him,
and the troops presented arms while the
sentence OF death was being read, the hang
man holding the prisoners right hand the
while. Ivan Frollof, the executioner, Is q
murderer, who was condemned to hard
labor for Ii years, but whose sentence was
commuted upon his acceptance Of the Office
OF executioner. His assistants were rob
bers, who gladly exchanged their prison
life fcr temporary work of a more active
and exciting nature. No sooner had the
sentence been read than the beating of
thirty drums rendered all other sounds in
audible. But a priest, cross in hand, was
seen to advance toward the prisoner and ad-
dress few words to him. Solovieff merely
SiHieu anu Hdue sign Vi tne nanO SHOW
irg that he did not desire the approach OF
the Russian priest. The latter retired
blessing the prisoner, who bowed, turning
his head aside the while, muttering the
words, heard by the hsngmsn alone, Il do
not want him; it would be useless"
Solovieti was then covered with long white
dress, to which a cap was attached for the
head, his hands We're tied behind his back,
a stool was brought, and the prisoner stood
upon 1t. The executioner Immediately
placed the rope round the would.be
regicide. and withdrew the stool. The cord
tigh:ened with sudden jerk, but the drop
being very short, more than seven minutes
elapsed before life was extinct. During
these awful moments the violent contortions
OF the arms and legs of the miserable man
gave signs Of the death struggle that was
going on, but the gigantic crowd seemed
more moved by curiosity than horror at the
scene enacted before them. Presently the
corpse was cut down, the physicians bore
witness to the prisoners death, and his re-
mains were placed in a coffin. A one
horsed cart, surrounded by powerful es-
cnrt of gendarmes and Cossacks, took away
the body, and the crowd dispersed.

SILVER SENTIMENT.

The Chicsgo Tribune says the silver sen
timent in that city is in fair way 10 be di-
rected toward the accomplishment OF prsc-
tical results through organization and
united effort. The meeting last Tuesday,
which brought into existence the Bl-Metal-
ic League of Chicago, was composed OF 8
class of men who, by education, training
and business experience, sre peculiarly
qualified TO undertake the work in hand
that OF promoting the restoration OF silver
to its old and rightful place as money
metal on an equal footing with gold as
standard of value. They speak whereof
they know when they assert that the exclu-
sion of silver from Its monetary fuuction
has been of incalcul.ble injury to the
business and industrial interests Of the Uni.
ted States, and that the restoration of silver
to unlimited coinage and full equality
with gold will repair that injury. Such an
organization, with constantly increasing
membership, which shall include the. best
brains and business ability OF Chicago, will
surely make itself known ard felt in the
cause Of silver remonetization, and such
leagues should be organized in all the cities

4 High Ideal Of Journalism.
IChicago Tribune, 2l.l

Mr.. Whitelaw Reid delivered a very
thoughtful address on "The Coming News
paper" before the Ohio Press Association
Tuesday. He suggested a time when the
newspapers shall pay more literally for
brains than they do now; when the most
enterprising journals shall still employ CO.
losssl capital to gather all the news, and
then crown and fructify its expenditures
by having a staff Of Greenes and Froudes
to tell it."
at will be the highest achievement of
the most enterprising journalism to make
day by day, for the morning reader, such 3
picture las Macaulay's OF the death OF
Charles III, or the Peace of Ryswick) of his
own city, OF his own country-such a pic
ture for him of the world, indeed, of the
day before. The elements Of the picture
will be arranged, too, precisely in the order
l have named. In the foreground will be
his own city; the middle distance will be
filled by his country; beyond that, in the
smaller proportion to which its relative i'm
portance in s eye and for his purpose en-.
titles it, will be for the rest of the world.
Bat if the foreground is to be the city, that
will require the greatest care, the most elab-
orate work, and certainly not the lowest
order Of ability. The city department may
hen cease. perhaps, to be the place where
he raw beginners wresk their will, and be.
come the point at which the journalistic
graduates will be expected to display their
,est powers and most thorough training"
This is high ideal Of journalism; and it
Gems proper to ssy in this place that Mr.
Reid has dope much to promote its cause.

gence would put forward any such redicu-
lous statement The colored people who

How THEY GAVE THE PRES
IDENT TACHANCE.

The New York Herald thinks President
Hayes ought to be grateful to the Demo-
crats for the excellent opportunity they
have given him 10 exhibit his fairness, and
to show TO the country that he is in full
sympathy with his party. Had the Dem
Ocratic estimate OF the character Of Mr..
Hayes been correct, the scheme OF causing
the appropriation bills to fall between the
two Houses at the regular session, in order
that they might be passed by a Democratic
Congress would have presented
great possibilities Ct party advantage. If
the President should sign the bills the
breach in the Republican ranks would be
widened, and the Democrats might count
on an easy victory against divided enemy.
Their too ssnguine estimate Of this possi-
bility, s.ys the Herald, has put them in an
awkward predicament.
In expressing its estimate very just
| one, too-of the character OF President
| Hayes, the Herald says:
President Hayes has utilized the occasion
thus created for him by his political adver-
saries with proTptness, vigor and sagaci-
ty which give quite a new view OF his char
acter Neither the "stalwarts" nor the
Democrats csn hereafter look upon Mr..
| Hayes as a milksop statesman. He hiss es-
| tablished claim to be considered az pol
itician who is quick TO see opportunities
and energetic to turn them to account. The
dexterity with which he has recovered lost
ground in his own party is quite rem arks-
BILE The Democrats never made a greater
| mistake than in planning a manoeuvre
| on the assumption that Mr.. Hayes lacked
| the elements OF character for taking ad-
vantage of critical situation and using it
a. an opportunity for unifying and invigor-
! ating his own party and Ieinstating himself
as its leader. The one statesman that has
| risen in public estimation during this
~rangling extra session is President Hayes,
who has vaulted into a firm seat in the
saddle like a supple athlete in a circus
after the audience had seen him sprawling
on the ground in the sawdust. Perhaps no
politician ever SO surprisingly recovered
himself in so short a time. 1t was al
egregious blunder for the Democrats to
give him such an opportunity for recon-
Cling differences between himself and
his party. Had they anticipated the reso-
lutte vigor with which their political riders
to the appropriation bills were to be vetoed
they mi sht have avoided the mistake of
this humiIiating session, ia which they have
been compelled to retreat from point to
point until the contest is at least reduced
to paltry dispute as to psy Of federal
Election officers in a year when they cannot
be appointed except in half a dozsn dis
lricts where they have never vet been
called for and are not likely TO be this
year.
