At the annual meeting of the member of the Union Leatrne, held ltutt evening, the slxtu annual report was read. The report commences by seating that "the members may justly con gratulate themselves ou what now appears to he tho successful Issue of their patriotic mission. The greater objects of the nssociatioa have all been atcompiisued. The military power of t lie Relellion has thown no s'pns of lite, however, since it leil benehth the blows which our Great Captain dealt it between the Wilderness and tho Appomatux. Slavery has Deeu totally abolished; the ficcdmun has been converted to a citizen; and with all the di-advantagcs ot his i:ew position, and the. (erverse opposition of his lorater nui-ters, he is rapidly acquiring know ledge, intelligence, wealth, and the difficult art ol selt-iioverunient. To say, as is said by our adversaries, that Gcucral tvraut was elected ou his personal popu larity, oi because of his illustrious warlike fame, ib to state the case most unfairly, not only for him as President, but for the millions of honest and patriotic roeu w ho cast their votes for him as the representative of the principles tor which their kindred had perished. It must not bo fort often that Geueral Grant, with all the serious canoor ol his pure character, accepted the declaration of principles made at Chicago when ho accepted his nomination, and from the beginning to tho end of the canvass he stood siieuily but firmly by the tait'a of his party. He is not a man to lorget obligations even tacitly assumed. To his nuud a step taken or a deed dene has all the force of a pro'ession in words, and driies with it a moral covenant from which he has no power and no wish to escape. We conceive that the principles ol the Republican party are those wliich inot commend them selves to the integrity of such a wind as Geueral Grant'?. "Ihe present year hns been male memorable to us by the reccptioa glYt'U to Que whom wo all revere, and who ou that occasion crossed our threshold for the first time to the late Secre tary ot War, the lion. K twin M. S-auton, .

Thesaerldcd which he made for us of his personal comfort was evident fi all who haJ known him amid the cares of the War Office, when he everywhere liupret ted upon the terrible strugsle of our day the broad mark of hit vigorous personality. We felt It to be a privilege to press iu our own the strong hard that had pointed the paths of nrm'es, ti henr the voic" ht hn foo-n ho u to i in nis fouuu j's tvuucils, nuoAing a we did that the hand was unstained by ths millions that it had distributed, and thai the voice had never been raised but on the side of rmht.

Any porson Labitnally costive cannot le in the enjoyment of health. If not relieved C03 tiveneEa will result in continued cases of Khenniatiim, Piles, Iullammation of the liowels, Diseases of the Kidneys, Bladder, aud surrounding organs. When oostlveness ia radically cured, all the machinery of the sys tem mores in harmony. Marshall's Elixir permanently cures costiveness, and so pre vents diseases more painful and dangerous. Headache quickly yields to its curative powers. Being entirely vegetable, it may be salely taken by all persons at any time, with perfect safety. Headache, besides being a very painful complaint, is also weakening to the nervous system, and may lead to palsy in Its various forms if not soon relieved. Mar shall's Elixir so strengthens the nerves that they perform their duties without paiu or un easiness. By supplying the stomach with the medici nal principle, the want of which causes Dys pepsia, this distressing and common disease is quickly cured by its use. It not only supplies this to the stomach, but imparts Btrength and vigor to the whole digestive apparatus, so that health, with cheerful spirits and a rnddy coun tenance, is fully established. Read the fol lowing certificate: Chester, Delaware county. Dear Sirs I have had slclt headaches at ttmen for many years. Wueu aliltcted with HI was unfit to attend to my houHcbold affairs. Your Kllxir partially cured me tho first time I tried It. Tbe second time It cured me almost imme diately. Since then, by Its occasional use, I bave OeeB entirely free from it. Mtts, Matilda Hays.

This is to certify, that in the year 1SU4 I was pronounced by the physicians who at tended me to be in the last sta;es of Pulmo nary Consumption, and that my end was near at hand. At this critical stage of affairs I was Induced by a friend to give "Wishart's Tine Tree Tar Cordial" a trial. I did so, and I was almost immediately relieved. I persevered, took lonrteen bottles of the "Pine Tree Tar Cor dial," and was completely restored to health once more ! Four years have elapsed sin e my miraculous restoration to health, and I am Etill in the enjoymeut of most excellent health, and would say in all sincerity that, under Hod, I owe my life and health to "Dr. Wis L.tut'3 Bine Tree Tar Cordial I" I advise all poor, lingering consumptives, if ihy value lite and health, to give the "Pine Tree Tar Cordial" a trial.
