THURSDAY, MARCH 21, 187S.
The Secretary of the Treasury
has during tho past week purchased n
large amount of silver bullion enough
to run the mints for about live weeks.
The price paid for the bullion Is not so
great as was expected by bullion hold
ers. Telecirams received from New
England by members of Congress
represent ft critical condition of nHhirs,
and show that unless Congress desists
from tho agitation on tho financial
questions they will ruin the bank in
terest of thecountry by uselessly alarm
ing the people.
Models for printing tho back and
face of the silver certificates of the de
nominations of ten dollars and twenty
dollars have been completed by the
Bureau of Engraving and Printing,
and the bureau proposed to turn out
certificates of these denominations
yesterday.
As Senator Spencer is Chair
man of the Semite Military Committee,
nnd as he Is supposed to rellect the
views of his colleagues, some persons
nttach importance to his opinions
about the Army bill now incubating
in Congresa. The Senator being
questioned, says he will not support
any measure looking to a reduction of
the army ; that tho latter is not large
enough now ; that it should be in
creased to 40,000 men ; that there is
going to be the biggest Indian war
next summer Ave have ever had, and
twenty thousand men arc not enough
to garrison our frontier posts. He has
been for mouths out there and speaks
from his own observations. The In
dians are mad about bud treatment,
and change of reservation, and are
preparing for war. Several thousand
are now on the warpath, and as many
more have left their reservation. Our
army, with the present force, cannot
whip the Indians and at the same
time keep the proper number of men
in the garrisons.
Wilcox Notes.
Wilcox, March 19tn 1878.
Tools are still fast in Ernliout &
Taylor's "Well No. 1. No. 2 is down
about throe hundred feet.
Beveir's well, near Bridgetown, is
down one hundred feet.
George Sehriner, the boy that fell
iu the tannery, sometime ago, and
broke his knee, had so far recovered
that he was able to bo out, when, on
Saturday night, lie dipped and fell
on the door step, and broke his thigh
bone near the hip, also badly wrenching
his lame knee. The poor boy is in a
terrible condition at present.
Willie Cole, the boy who had his
leg broken, while riding down hill,
has so far recovered that he is able to
be about the house.
Quite a delegation havo gone to
Sinethport to-day to attend the wed
ding of Capt. Ernliout and Mrs. Tay
lor, widow of the late Hon. A. N. Tay
lor, which is to come oil' to-morrow at
ten o'clock A. M. The happy couple
are to take the usual swing around
tho circle, Niagara Fails, New York,
iic. Long may they wave and may
their troubles be little ones.

THE EFFECT WAS MAGICAL.
It Is astonishing how many people
have their nerves in some way affec
ted. They are "nervous" "cannot
control their feelings," "rest poorly at
night," "have the blues," feel ns
though "something dreadful was
about to happen" to them or their
friends all the time affected with n
sense of 'impending danger" etc.
etc., all of which point to a temporary
impairment of the nerves. M'hich if
not relieved, may result in an acute
attack of sonic form of disease. No
nerve remedy Mill benefit unless the
system is at the same time cleansed
and prepared for its action. That is
the reason of the failure of most nerve
tonics in these cases. It is also the
reason Dr. M. M. r enner nas com
bined in one medicine his Blood and
Liver Remedy and Nerve Tonic, an
it is tho furt her reason that people
M'ho use it are enabled to wnto lnui
