e&aHow Lost, How Restored.
Just published, o new edition of DR.. CUL-
vERwELL's CELEBRATED ESSAY on the radical
cure (without medicine) of SPERMAToRRRGA
or Seminal Weakness, lnvolntary Seminal
Losses, IMPoTENoY, Mental and Physical In
capacity, Impediments to Marriage, etc.; also,
CONSUMPTION, EPIIEPsY and FITs, induced
by self-indulgence or sexual extravaganza, &c.
The celebrated author, in this admirable
Essay, clearly demonstrates, from thirty
years successful practice, that the alarming
consequence of self abuse may be radically
cured without the use of internal medicine or
the application of the knife; pointing out a
mode of cure at once simple, certain, and eff
fectual, by means of which every sufferer,
no matter what his condition may be, may
be, may cure himself cheaply, privately,
and radically.

every youth and every man in the land.

Investigation

Every man should be willing, and
we think should. be anxious to lnyesti-
gate every thing which is so likely to
benefit all mankind as the discovery
of Kendall's SPAWN Cure, because it
is now being used on human flesh
with most remarkable beneficial result
for rheumatism aud deep seated pains,
and it has proved by experience that it
is equally as good for human flesh as
for any animal. 1t is penetrating and
and powerful, and yet it can be used
full strength with perfect safety on
child as we'll as a grown person.
For all blewishes on horses, it never
has had an equal. Read the adver-
tisement for kendalrs SPAWN Cure.

Tanners Life In the West.
His Fame in Minneapolis-Eis Divorce and his
First Fast.

NlNNEASOL1S, AANN., oGiy Go.-
The queer little Eclectic Doctor who
is starving himself in New York at 25
cents a peep, and to the confusion of
rashly predicting medical men, is we'll
known here. He has lived in Min
neapolis for four or five years, and
made his great discovery here that he
could gain larger share of the no
toriety for which his soul thirsted by
denying himself food than By running
electro-thermal baths or practiciDg &C.
centric medicine. Fame did not treat
him so kindly here as in New York,
because he did not challenge her so
boldly. He made bis first experiment
of abstinence from food in his closet in
instead of upon the house-tops. He
shut himself up with single conf
dant, a fellow eclectic, and went
through his ordeal unsustsined by the
TOPIC criticism of the regular faculty
or the inspiring sympathy of inquisi-
tive beauty. The public was not taken
into his confidence until some time af-
ter his feat was accomplished, and re.
sented the exclusion by laughing at,
instead of wondering at him. I am
bound to say that DR.. Tanners hon
esty is generally credited here; but
the public refused to interest itself in
him or to care whether he enjoyed his
rations or not. There was a short
lived sensation when the performance
of his feat was first announced, and
another while his proposed wager with
Dr.. Hammond gave business, like air
to his vagaries, but, in general, he
vas regarded as a mildly aggressive
nuisance, who bored the public too
much with his stomach and the news
papers too much with his theories, in
carnated in portentous rolls of manu-
script. Of course, the reaction from
the interest he has excited in New
York has stimulated public interest in
him here, and he is talked and writ
ten about in a way thet would de-
ligas his heart if be were here. The
newspapers are going into his personal
and domestic history as if he were
candidate for Office, and the history of
a quiet life is slowly unfolding. The
funniest thing told about him is the
story that he formerly insisted upon
trying his theories about abstinence
from food upon his wife, aud finally
drove her to the divorce courts as
refuge from starvation. This story
was given to the newspapers upon the
pretended authority Of friend of
both the persons; but there is good
reason to believe that the friend is the
ez-Mrs. Tanner herself, who seeks

life.

business and professional career with

his one idea that he was Christ, was
remarkably Intelligent and rational.
Among the officials and inmates OF
the almshouse he was general favo-
rite and was accustomed to refer to
everything as his, as, for instance
"My Blockley Mansion.' When he
concluded to break his long fast and
summoned DR.. Richardson, he appear
ed very hungry aid anxious to eat,
but was still firm in his delusion.
The Rev. G. F. Pearson, spiritual
attendant at the almshouse, in his
"Sparks Among the Ashes" taken
from nineteen years of services there,
describes the faster as follows:
awe next met a tall, good-lookiug
man, who has been blessed with a

gious sympathy when We are sur

brother died on Calvary to make an

forever and to reign among his peo-

Referring to luuatics who persist
in fasting, DR.. Richardson quoted

markable, after all; and you must
consider that Virgins did not prepare
for his setf-iuposed task by taking egg

Our Washington Letter.
WASHINGTON, D. c.,
July 2Sth, 1880.

July 2Sth, 1880.
Under an order issued yesterday by
Mr.. Hayes. Gen, Hancock temporarily
assumed command of tue Department
Of the South, in addition to his duties
as commander of the Department of
the East. No especial significance
attaches to this, perhaps, but your cor
respondent thinks it adds emphasis to
the popular demand for Gen. Han
cocks resignation FROM the army. The
candidate of a great party, and, as I
think, the next President of the Uni
ted States, should not remain in
position in which the wiles or caprices
of a prcfessedly unfriendly Admins
tration may at any moment use that
position to injure his standing. Gen.
Hancock should resign when he ac-
cepts the Presidential nomination.
The Erenlng Star, of this city, a
sort of backstairs organ of the Admin
istration, says of the contemplated trip
of Mr.. Hayes The fact that the
President intends early in September
to make a trip to the Pacific Coast
has been construed in some quarters
to mean that he proposes to make
number Of set campaign speeches.
This is hardly the fact While it is
true that the President intends to visit
California, and while it is true be ez-
poets that he will be called upon to
address its citizens, it is not true that
his trip West means political move
ment in auybody's interest.
And this means that Mr.. Hayes
wiU make Garfield speeches in Cali.
fornia. As Garfield fought the anti
Chinese bill, demanded by the whole
population of California, and Mr.
Hayes vetoed it, hardly see anything
to be gained by this advocacy.
1t is officially announced that de-
mand has been made by New York
Radicals for the removal of Collector
Merritt, and that Secretary Sherman
refuses to consider the demand. He
says he has not, however, talked with
Mr.. Hayes about the matter It is
said here that General Garfield desires
the change, aud that Mr.. Hayes is
inclined to ovcrrule his Secretary Of.

He argues very stronglyand sound

is that no one is capable Of proper

The majority of the Radicals
seem to be in favor of nominating
a full State ticket. The trouble is
they haven't got material to make a
State ticket ont of. Moses, Scott,
Chamberlain, Parker, Cardozo, Nea-
gle, and all the other big lights have
departed, and they have no promi-
nent men left. It is very probable,
however, that they will make a
ticket of some sort out of the ma
terial left. They will certainly put
