Az IN instance of great influence Of in
herited traits and % 4 suggestive item for
brsders Of stock may be mentioned the fact
that Mr.. Collision, Of Caroline county, Mary
land, became blind At the age Of 80 years.
None of his sons OK daughters we're ever at.
fictsd with loss of sight, bat the sons Of his
daushtes-there were quite number of
them-all became blind at the age of 80.
None of the offspring of the male line have
been blind. The peculiarly of this case is
in the fact that the trouble disappeared for
generation to reappsar only on the female
side Of the house, and then in the sons only
of the daughters.

No preparation has ever performed such
marvellous cures, or maintained so
wide a reputation, as AYERS CHERRY
PEcroRAL, which is recognized as tho
worlds remedy for all diseases Of the
throat and lungs. Its long-continued
series of wonderful cures in all cli-
mates has made it universally known
as safe and reliable agent to employ.
Against ordinary colds, which are the
forerunners of more serious disorders,
it acts speedily and surely, always re-
lieving suffering, and often saving life.
The protection it affords, by its timely
use in throat and chest disorders,
makes it an invaluable remedy to be
kept always on hand in every home.
No person can afford to be without Il,
and those who have once used it never
will. From their knowledge Of its
composition and operation, physicians
use the CHERRY PEcrORAL extensively
in their practice, and clergymen recon-
mend It. It Is absolutely certain IN
its healing effects, aud will always
cure where cures are possible.

George Ponnitz, u Hungarian refugee, liv-
ing in Iowa at the outbreak Of the rebellion,
rendered his services to tho national govern
mont and received commission as adiutant
of the fifteenth Iowa infantry. He served
through the war with great credit to himself
and TO his adopted ststc. The records of that
regiment, now on file in the War department.
are his best eulogy. They are remarkably
complete and accurate At the close of the
war he was made consul general to st. Peters.
burg by appointment Of President johnson,
and continued in that position until he was
removed, in 1873, without cause by Mr..
Hayes. Last October he died near st. Peters
burg.
This fact having been made known to Gen.
Bclknap, formerly colonel of the Fifteenth
Iowa. he Immediately conceived the idea of
erecting monument TO the memory of his
former comrado in arms. Having announced
his intention to few friends and ucuuaint-
ances of the deceased, they expressed desire
to contribute to that end In n crcditably
brief space of time the necessary amount
was raised, and has been forwarded to Consul
General Stanton, at 81. Petersburg, through
the kind offices and agency Of Hon. o. G..
Curtin, Of Pennsylvania. Tho names of the
contributors TO this lnudable undertaking are
Brighten. Hickenooper, last brigade COM
mander; Gen. j. NJ. HcdriclS, colonel fifteenth
Iowa; Col w. II. Gibbon, surgeon fifteenth
Iowa. Mai. NJ, A. Hvloy, quartermastor

ant fifteenth Iowa; Mai. w. II. GoOdoll,

the fifteenth Iowa Gen. William w. Belknap,
colonel fifteenth Iowa.
Surviving members of the regiment and
those of the army of the Tennessee who knew
the distinguished dead will be gratifod to
know that thus much has been done, in
memoriam, for their former comrade, who
now lies at rest meath the SHOWS OF foreign
