Gallant Men.

All hoBot to the brave, self-deny- ing officers and men of our noble little Army, who have often been tried and never found wanting in any of the requisites necessary to conqner foes of any color. Bat for the Army, In disns would have things their own way in the west. Part of this army gave freedom from Apaches to Ari- zona and other territories. The boys are now suffering cold, fatigue, etc., while defending iron, ,eegsH.en in bliz gard Dakota. Men Who are com fortably housed, knew nothing of the exposure and dangers they have to contend with, and yet we hear of no one at Washington advocating an increase of the force or increased compensation for men or officers. The men, especially, are very poorly paid, and the present IS good time to give them a slight increase.
 The Army will soon be called on to disarm all rebelIious Indians. This will be dangerous undertaking, but it will accomplish 1t, at peEb IDS, grea: sacrifice ot life, so we say increase the monthly pay of men whose lives are always at the service of the citi- zens of the Republic. Courier.

There was a surplus, too, which I. as the GUS todian, fawned over. and grew many pin-feathers at the expense of, while the heroic Jake waxed, sore and sad to the tune of several hundred. While I am not bird of beautiful plumage, how beautiful was the reign of Jake :; and while poor, lakes head fell with ponderous weight into the political basket, I did not care for that, as would have, willingly sacrifed my dear wife and all her relatives as well.

 Lot Smith was brought in last Thursday by officers Fairchild and Spencer on a warrant sworn out by Issac Duffn, charging Smith with burning down his house at Mormon Diary. In the mean time Dufin has skipped the country, and the principal witness against Smith, Bill Lamb, is in the penitentiary in Utah, for steal ing cattle.

 Mir. A. E. Macomber, who has just returned from Humbolt county, Cali fornia, states that he met Mir. Solomon Brown, son of the old John Brown, of Harper's Ferry fame. Mr. Brown is highly respected citizen of Humbolr county, where he is engaged in the stock business, having resided there for many years. Another son has re sided for many years in the mountain PortlQR of Southern California. The son in Humbolt county does not look to be over thirty-fve or forty years old, but still he is over fifty. The old man of such historic fame was executed in 1859, and born in 1900.

Tetter and BoIls,

For years 1 was afflicted with an aggravated case of Tetter. I tried lotions, salves, soaps, and other out ward applications, without any bene- ficial results. In addition to the let ter, Boils commenced breaking out all over my body, causing me so much pain that l had tr quit work and go to bed, Ethen decided that I had started wrong, and instead of using external treatment 1 ought to go to the seat of the disease and purify my blood, as it was obviously, bad blood that causes both the letter andthe Boils. I took several blood purifes without any good effect, About the time my case was declared. incurable I commenced taking 5. S $. In a few weeks the Tetter was cured, and one by one the Boils disappeared, until l was entirely and permanently cured, This was three years ago, and since then I have been free from any skin eruption. My skin IS now, and has been for three years, as smooth as any ones. S. S. S. not only cured ne of the Tetter and Boils, but also restored my appetite and general health, causing me to in. creased in weight and improved in every way.
