The senator's then withdrew to the

In the inaugural ceremonies. On re-

was adopted for daily sessions at u
o'clock, and the Senate then adjourned.
The house was still in the legislative

A WONDERFUL SHRUB.
Grows on the Banks OF the Ganges and
Cures Many Bodily Ills.

irows on the Banks OF the Ganges and
Cures Many Bodily Ills.
One of the latest botanical discov-
cries of interest to seekers for health
IS called Alkavis, from the Kava-Kava
shrub of India. 1t is being imported by
The Church Kidney Cure company of
New York, and is a certain cure for
several bodily disorders. The Kava-
hava shrub, or, as botanists call it,
Piper Methysticum," grows on the
banks of the Ganges river, and probab-
y was used for centuries by the natives
before its extraordinary properties be-
anne known to civilization through
Christian missionaries. In this re-
;pect it resembles the discovery of quiz
nine from the peruvian bark, made
known by the Indians to the early
missionaries in South America, and by
hem brought to civilized man. 1t is
wonderful discovery, with record of
1000 hospital cures in thirty days. 1t
acts directly upon the blood and kid
neys, and is true specific, just as quiz
nine is in malaria. We have the strong
est testimony of many ministers of
the gospel, well known doctors and
business men cured by Alkavis. So far
the Church company, No. 422 Fourth
avenue, New York, are the only i'm
porters of this new remedy. and they
are so anxious to prove its value that
for the sake of introduction they will
send free treatment of Alkavis pre-
paid by mail to every reader of this
paper who is sufferer from any form
of kidney or bladder disorder, Bright's
disease, rheumatism, dropsy, gravel
pain in back, female complaints or 9TH
er Affections due to improper action OF
the kidneys or urinary organs. We adj
wise all sufferers to send their names
and address to the company, and re-
cefve the Alkavis free. 1t is sent to
you entirely free, to prove its wonder
full curative powers.

I'm conclusion, congratulate the country
upon the fraternal spirit of the people and

TO some extent also the prejudices which

the triumph of one section. nor wholly of
one party. but of all sections and all the

and policies; and in this fact surely every
lover Of the country can find cause for true
felfcitation Let us rejoice in and cultivate
this spirit 1t Is ennobling and will be both
gain and blessing to our beloved country.
It will be my constant aim to do nothing
and permit nothing to be done that will ar
rest or disturb this growing sentiment OF
unity and cooperation. this revival of es-
TEEN and afiliation which now animates so
many thousands IL both the old and antag-
onistic sections. but shall cheerfully do
everything possible to promote and in
crease it.
Let us again repeat the words of the
oath administered by the chief justice,
which in their respective spheres. so far as
applicable, would have all nv countrymeu
