An old physician, retired from
practice, having had placed IN his
hands by an East India missionary
the formula of a simple vegetable
remedy for the speedy and perma-
nent cure of consumption, bronchitis,
catarrh. asthma and all throat and
lung affections, also a positive and
radical cure for nervous debility and
all nervous complaints, after having
tested its wonderful curative pow
ers in thousands of cases, has felt it
his duty to make il known to his suf-
feriug fellows. Actuated by this
motive and desire to relieve human
suffering, I will send free of charge

Affections of the throat are liable
to strike persons at any time of the
year, but especially at this season is
extra caution necessary in guarding.
against diseases of this character.
Mishler's Herb Bitters is the sover-
eign remedy for all bronchial affec-
tions. A. Harshbergy of Cheeseboro
and Harshbergy, of PrairieICity, H.,
writes: "Mrs Harshbergy suffered
from bronchitis, and has used three
bottles of AIishler's Herb Bitters
with the most desirable results.

The Presidents message contains
much that is we'll conceived, many
suggestions for the advancement of
the public welfare, and some very
blunt drives at his predecessors of
another party which give to the doc
ument something of the cast Of Il par
tisan pamphlet. The feature of the
message that will first attract atten-
ton is its great and unusual length.
Surely there is nothing in the estate
Ofthe Union" which requires so elab.
crate and minute a review of the
cOuntry's affairs; nor was it neces-
sary to argue at so great a length
propositions which have all the force
OfaXiOms. The President goes step
by step over ground which has been
thoroughly covered in the depart
mental reports, which in their turn
have been devoted largely to review
ing by departments the operations Of
the Government from its foundation.
The aim of the President, it may
be presumed, is to have his cOmmu-
nication read by Congress and by the
country, the probability of which de-
sirabIe end is in inverse ratio to the
length of the document. If a mes
sage of this length is to come often
newspapers which aim at "many
things, not much," will be forced to
"bOil it down." or be condemned for
printing long winded productions
which nobody has the patience to
wade through.
The next fair criticism is that the
President does not employ the Eng
fish language with facility. HeWrites
as one who labOrS at the task, and
some Of his sentences are more in
yolved than they need be. In this
last respect, however, he does not
equal the Secretary of the Treasury,
whose style is sloqenly, involved and
strikingly lacking perspicuity. Mr..
Cleveland is not the only President
who has written long messages, but
he will hold his own with the long
est winded ofthem all. - Wheeling In

Mormon Uprising.

OMAHO, NEB., Dec. SIT has just
been learned here that there are grave
fears of a Mormon outbreak in Utah
If it has not already occurred. A bat
terry of twelve guns and 400 men from
Fort Omaha, the entire garrison, with
the exception of ten men went west
to-day with orders to make all speed
possible. The track was cleared and
the company notified by the Govern
ment to side-track mail trains for
fOrty-eight hours, if necessary, in or
der not to delay special train bearing
the troops. Another train was start
ell tonight to take the troops at Fort
Sidney and other points to the scene
of the disturbance. All the troops in
the department of the Platte and
Missouri are under marching orders,
and it is learned that orders have
been issued for all troops east of the
Mississippi, with the exception of ten
men at each post be transferred west
of that river at once. Exactly what
the situation is it is impossible to find
out. but is stated the garrison at
Camp Douglas is hemmed in and
must he relieved at once or ii will be
too late. The greatest secrecy is main-
tanned in military and railroad circles
here, therefore it il impossible to Oh
tain reliable information just at this
time. General McCook, with his en-
tire command, is hurrying to the
scene and the battery and garrison Of
Fortress Monroe are now en- route.
All this is learned from one who is
in a position to know, and also that
Crook and the commander at Fort
Douglass ask that 10000 men be sent
to Utah Immediately, and that rein.

Logan Declines the Honor.

WASHINGTON. d. c., Dec. 4.-The
caucus of Republican Senators met
promptly at II O'Clock to-day, Sena-
tor Sherman in the chair, and pre-
ceeded to consider the question of a
President pro lem of the Senate, made
necessary by the death of the Vice
President of the United States. Sen
ator Edmunds stated that when last
summer the Republicans of the ma.
ton in their convention nominated
general Logan for Vice President, he
(Mr. Ednunds) had thought it right
toward General Logan and toward
the party that he should retire from
the Presidency of the Senate, and
that General Logan should be chosen
in his place, and, as they all remem-
bered, he had communicated in his
place that opinion and desire to the
Republican Senators In formal way,
but it WAS thOught at that time that
the change be not made, especially
AS General Logan did not wish it to

Logan had received, he believed, the
votes of all the Repu blicans who had
