Aaron Burr as a Marksman.

From EfOCtcrs Lawyer anu OlloI0'J
 Col Burr was compelled to remain at Utica for several days. During this time he dives ted himself of that reticence and coolness which usually characterized his intercourse with strangers and he became general fa- vorite of the members of the bar present One afternoon, g number of young lawyers were amusing themselves by firing at mark with pistol. As the exercise continued long after the adjournment of court for the day
 many lawyers and others were witnesses of
 the sport. Amongst the most deeply inter ested spectators was Col. Burr. While keen
 ly watching the effect of each shot, young
 lawyer, approaching him, said: ''Col Burr,
 at target shooting '' My skill at target
 shooting? How came you to suppose have
 any skill as marksman?" said Burr. fixing
 his keen eye upon the young man. "You are an old soldier, Col. Burr, and have always
 heard you spoken of as the best shotin Ameri-
 ca, " said the young man. Ut Is many years
 since I was soldier and have but little
 practice with the pistol since leaving the army. Times of peace do not. or, at least,
 they should not furnish occasions for it's use, since those occasions often leave a regret.
 But will accept your invltation-at least will shoot once at the target. That will be sufficient for my unpracticed hand. Let me see your pistols" Several were brought him. Selecting one of them, he balanced it carefully a moment in his hand, sighted across it's bar rel then, also, taking his stand at the line from which contestants fired, he raised his arm and presented the pistol. It was 8 mo- ment of intense almost dramatic interest Before the spectators, pistol in hand, stood Aaron Burr the very arm outstretched which, on the heights of Weehawken, laid the illus trious Hamilton cold in death The very eye, that was now sighting the pistol, had gleamed along deathful weapon in mortal combat behsld his foe sink at his feet, bathed in blood. But quick fash-a sharp report broke the spell that held the spectators bullet had sped Aaron Burr had sent it home to the center of the target. A faint smile passed over his features. as an exclamation Of aston ishment announced the unerring sho t. .Hano- ing the weapon to it's owner, he turned and left the field.

 TRUTHS

The blood is the foundation of life, it circulates through every part of the body, and unless it is pure and rich, good health is impossible. If disease has entered the system the ouLy sure and quick way to drive it out is to purify and enrich the blood.
 These simple facts are well known, and the highest medical authorities agree that notAt'fg but iron will restore the blood to its natural condition and also that all the iron preparations hitherto made blacken the teeth, cause head ache, and are otherwise injurious.
 BROWNS IRON BITTERs will thor oughly and quickly assimilate with the blood, purifying and strengthen ing it, and thus drive disease from any part of the system, and it will nof blacken the teeth, cause head ache or constipation, and is posi- lively vek injurious

gations show that the blood of 8 human be- ing capable of performing his daily avoca- tions may contain from %, ,00O tso 30, 900 min ute embryo nematoid worms. A physician at Calcutta demonstrated this with regard to viduals so affected suffer from chyluria, or elephantiasis in one or other of it's forms; but this is by no means universally the case. Researches have also revealed the curious fact that these teeming multitudes of nematoids Turk in some un- known recesses of the vascular system dur ing the daytime, and that only as night ap- breaches do they wander at large through the vessels generally. Experts say that sim finger at midnight in person so affected may contain as many as 200 embryo nema- toids, while many drops similarly obtained at midday will not reveal single worm.
 Testimony in favor of the Thigh license plan continues to come in. Two years ago the city council of Lincoln, Nebraska, passed an ordinance to the effect that thereafter a If cense to sell liquor would cost one thousand dollars year. The first impression of the citizens was that no licenses would be called for, but that snrreptitious sales would go on. There were twenty saloons in town and the proprietors of six of them paid the heavy fee, the rest going out of business At once these six men who had given such a large price for their privileges became practically special officers to see that no one sold with out license. There was much resistance to the high license idea in Omaha. In that city the 165 saloons became 80, after the right to sell was so expensive. but the dealers paid into the city treasury $8O, ,OOO instead of $16, ,5OO. It is said that the people of Ne braska are satisfied that ''high license'' is the most effective temperance measure yet put in force.
 Senator Boyd, of New York; is evidently a man of ideas. He has introduced bill pro- viding that every new railroad corporation hereafter organized in the State of New York shall assign at least one-tenth part of it's stock to the State, to be held in trust for the benefit of the people. This stock shall be subject to no assessment or liability. An an nual dividend of ten per cent. shall be paid on it before any dividends are paid on other stock. The amount received for dividends on the State stock shall be used in buying more stock of the same road, and the cor poration shall be compelled to sell to the State as the funds become available. The process shall go on until the State has ac quired all the ock and bonds of the road, which shall then be sold by auction, in lots, to the highest bidder. Railroads now in corporated may, if they choose, come under the operation of the law by depositing one tenth of their stock with the comptroller. No monopoly about this.

Rev. Dr. Peabody, of Cambridge Mass, has not much more admiration for the drunk ard than Rev. Dr. Todd, of this city, has. He would make drunkenness and not liquor selling the prime offence, and would turn the disapprobation which temperance people feel for the saloon keeper upon the drunkard himself He believes that the most ef6cient legislation in behalf of temperance would be to subject intoxication in all cases to ignc- minious punishment.

 Gents Upon the recommenda- tion of a friend I tried BROWNS IRON BITTERS as a tonic and re- storative for my daughter, whom I was thoroughly convinced was wasting away with Consumption. Having lost three daughters by the terrible disease, under the care of eminent physicians, was 10th to believe that anything could arrest the progress of the disease, but, to my great surprise, before my daugh- ter had taken one bottle of BROWNS IRON BITrERs, she began to mend and now is quite restored to former health. A fifth daughter began to show signs of Consumption, and when the physician was consulted he quickly said "Tonics were re- quired ;" and when informed that the elder sister was taking BROWNS IRON BITTERs, responded "that is a good tonic, take it. .''

The reputation of the Illinois Legislature, which recently adjourned, is not savory. It is pronounced by impartial judges to have been the most inefficient and corrupt body that ever disgraced the legislative halls of that State. Even the Democrats admit that it has done inealculable harm to the party. Its work when examined is found to be more bIameworthy than was supposed. Necessary measures were left unpassed, and the whole time of the session was devoted to making one grand grab at the patronage of the State.

In 1866, legal processes having prevented him from enjoy ing his privileges, an act was passed by the Legislature designed to preserve Broad street from railroad uses, which authorized the city to take and appropriate the fran chises and properties belonging te any owner or railroad corporation upon Broad street Since the passage of this act MT. Peters has been persistent claimant for indemnity for the loss of chartered rights, and every legis- lative committee to which his bill has been referred has reported in his favor, but there the matter has rested.

CINCINNATI, July 23.-The telegraphic sit
uation here was much improved to-day. Sun
day intervening, gave an opportunity to
clear up business that had accumulated, and
to afford time for rest. The best of care is
taken of the operators at work in order to
prevent exhaustion from overwork, The
first attempt at an organization of new force
was made to-day. Operators were perma-
nently assigned to different wires, and busi-
ness is moving in much more satisfactory
manner. Market reports are coming regu-
larly from all points. Superintendent Mil
Ter feels much encouraged by the situation
this morning. The strikers still maintain
confidence and their conduct has been ire
nrnachable.
