BEDFORD, PA., FEIBAT, MAY 6, IS7P. THE NEW TARIFF DILL. The new tariff bill reported by the Com mittee of Ways and Mean? has been under discussion iu the house for several weeks and is not yet half completed. Its pro visioas if they eould be passed as origi nally reported would doubtless be an im provement on the present tariff: but a des- 1 peratc fight has been made against it by the free-traders ami particularly in the duties oa iron the discussion and voting upon item by item has resulted in such a reduction as would paralyse our whole iron trade if it were to become a law. Under these circura stances the friends of protection have no other recourse than to endeavor to defeat the whole bill and let the present rates re main. If the discussion continues and drags as slowly as it has heretofore done, Congress will be able to do little else before July. | This prospec. has ioduced a disposition in i both parties to abandon the bill. The free ] traders have introduced a brief bill pro- j posing to make a sweeping and indiscrim- j inate reduction of all taxes both import | and excise except whiskey and tobacco, j This hill they will try to force through j unless they can succeed in making a ] sweeping reduction in the bill under dis cussion. The Free traders are making j desperate efforts to carry their measles and have an extensive lobby influence j awl plenty of funds tcv carry on their work. The friends of protection have not hat} the support that they should receive from the parties interested. While the free traders have large delegations in 1\ ash inetoo urging their measures, the tariff men who are vitally interested, have no delegation, funds, or influence there to as sist their members of Congress, witb infor mation, statistics, Ac. Thus far the inter ests of American labor have been sadly neglected. We hope however to see an in creased interest and a vigorous effort made when the final vote comes- The tariff men cannot afford to neglect this matter. It is of the highest importance to the manufactur ing and general industrial interests of the whole country. No effort should be spared to uphold our national industry through protective duties. If we wish American laborers to live and prosper, we must protect them against the competition of foreign pauper labor. This can be much more easily done now while he have a fair degree of protection, than after foreign influence shall have reduced our tariff and broken down our manufactures. THE POOR HOI SE. We had hoped to be able to lay before our readers this week, some communications on the Poor House question; but our friends, as yet. have not responded to our invitation. We hope still to be favored with some for our next issue. We are in- Formed that the subject is eliciting a good deal of discussion in various parts of the County. The chief burthen of complaint seems to be the great expense annually nec essary to keep our poor. We have been calling their attention to it for a long time. It will only be remedied by putting a good Republican or two in the board of Direc tors. That election will come in October. The question now is the location of the new Poor House, and not the management of the finance?, and it will be well to keep the two distinct and separate, for they are wide ly different questions. To argue that the present property should be sold because there has been bad management is about the same as if we were to urge the removal of the court house because there has been a large a' ,unt of criminal business and that it has been a heavy expense to the County. There is only one point in which the present property can be any more expensive than any other property that may be purchased, and that is. the expense of keeping the mill in repair. But if this is an objection, the mill can be sold for a good price, and plenty of purchasers for it can be found who will regard it as a very desirable property. In fact we have advocated this for many years. The property can be divided so as to sell off the mill and have plenty left for all the purposes of an alms house. We believe that a provision in the present bill to per mit a vote for the division of the property and the sale of the mill would have met with decided favor, and have, perhaps, re ceived a majority of votes. A large farm is not needed, for the paupers cannot do the work of a farm, and but few men COnW be fuuuvl to to.lt© a farm an<l world it to advantage with hired labor, For such as are competent to do that prefer to farm their own land and reap all the profits. We believe that a small farm of from 60 to 80 acres, sufficient to pro vide pasturage and feed for a team, and n few head of cattle will be found the most economical. This we have in the present property after cutting off the mill, beside having a large range for sheep pasturage which is perhaps the most profitable stock kept on the present farm, as the flock of sheep has for years furnished a large part of the clothing for the paupers. But we have already written more than we intended; we hope to hear from some of our friends next week, bend along your communica tions with the names, and we will gladly publish them on whichever side they may happen tobe. CURIOSITIES OK FINANCE.— It is not & little singular that while we, of the United States, are anxious to see the glitter and hear the jingle of gold and silver, our neigh bors, the ( anadians, tired of the sight and sound of U. S. coin, are just now Issuing fractional currency rimilar to our own, hoping with it to drive American coin out t|f their borders. \\ c are anxious to be rid of paper, they of coin. We can only ac count for it on the principal that grown peo ple like children are apt to want, and set a high value on what they have Bot got, and what they have, however good, they hold in very little esteem. We are quite sure that both extremes are bad. A little more gokl and silver here and a little more paper currency in Canada would improve matters in both places. An exclusive gold or paper currency is objectionable. A fair propor tion of each best answers the purposes of business. SHAMEFUL NEG LET— When the vote was taken in the House on Tuesday on reducing '.ic duty on bar iron from If cents per pound to 1 cent, there were (says the Miners' •Journal) only twelve members from Penn sylvania present, and all the Democratic members from this State were absent. W hilc Western members, a large portion of the New England delegation, with the Dem ocrats, were striking deadly blows at the in terests of Pennsylvania, many of her mem bers were absent. There may be reasons for the xeasional absence of members, but it should be a strong one that induces a mem ber to absent himself when the industrial interests of his State are assailed. The peo ple will have an account to settle with the indifferent members at the next Congres sional elections.— [hirrisbttry Telegraph. VIRGINIA RAILROADS AND VIRGIN IA PROSPECTS The coal leld on the of the Allegbenief, extending from the Mononga hela to the Big Sandy river?, is by far the largest, the richest, and is defined to be coom the most valuable in the world. Io Europe, Dearly all the coal deposits lie far beneath the general surface, and far below water level. Peep shafts are sunk at im mense oost, to reach them; the mines are then ventilated and drained as they are be ing worked, only after the most astonishing outlays. OH the Kanawha and collateral 1 i valleys, the coal crops out of the hill sides in veins from 5 to 12 feet thick, far above water level, and can be dumped into the car? by the lorce of gravity, for merely nominal cost, and carried thence to wherever it is needed. A few miles eastward of this im mense store of coal, on the eastern slope of the Ailegaaies, arc found inexhaustible de posits of iron ores of the best qualities. The Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad, now in course of construction from the navigable waters of the James River, to the river nav igation of the Mississippi Vailcy, the grea ter part of which is already in operation, crosses both the iron Gelds and the coal fields and unites tbern to the seaboard on the one hand and the Great West on the other. Nearly 7,000 men are employed upon this great work, and it will not be many montl s before the care will travel continuously from Memphis, Saint Louis or Chicago, to and from these great iron and coal deposits, ami if need be, on to the navigation of the At lantic at Richmond. These natural advantages, together with | the encouraging rush of immigration now finding its way to Y bint a and West Virgin ia, will give to those States a vast wealth and industry. The completion of the Chese peake and Ohio Railroad itself will set free a wonderful amount of latent power, and is to rank as one of the most important works of improvement now in progress. The Loan of the Chesepeake and Ohio Railroad Company, which is annouoced else where in our columns, by the well known Backing firm. Fisk A Hatch, of New York, it will be seen is being steadily absorbed fo r investments. These Bonds have several features of convenience and security not hitherto found combined. To all persons contemplating investments of capital, or the exchange of securities, their remarks will be of special interest. THE CENSI'S. The census for 1870 will be taken in JUDC. The work will be greatly facilitated and much annoyance to the people will be .saved if our citizens carefully study the fob lowing scheme and have their reports made out in advance. If this is done, when the deputy Marshal calls, much time will be saved and far greater accuracy obtained in the returns. The second action is omitted. It once gave the number of slaves. It is now out of date.

We trust oar readers generally will care - fully study the substance of the schedules published above, so they can be ready to give the information desired so soon as cal led upon. ONE OF ITS RESULTS. —Before the tariff on imported steel was made protective there 1 were no steel works in the United States and we paid from S3OO to $350 per ton to foreigners for a good quality of steel. A high protective duty on steel has built up the manufacture in Pennsylvania until we can now supply the market, and the result is that to-day we can buy the same quality of steel for from $l5O to S2OO per tOD, or a little more that half what we had to pay when we were dependent on a foreign sup ply. In the same way we were obliged to pay foreign manufacturers $175 per ton for steel rails for our railroads. A heavy duty was laid on the foreign article, our own peo ple erected rolling mills for the manufacture of steel rails, and to-day we can buy them for $75 per ton. According to copperhead free-trade preaching steel and steel rails should have increased in price by reason of the heavy duty, but the result is just the reverse; they have fallen in price instead. The reason is plain, we can make our OWD, and the foreign manufacturer is obliged to sell to us at reasonable rates or we will not buy. Our own manufacturers by busines* competition are compelled though protected to sell at reasonable rates. Let farmers re member that their reapers and mowers, their scythes, axes and every implement into which steel enters is cheaper to-day because protection to American industry has reduced the cost of steel. The same rule holds good in regard to almost every manufacture. The farmer not only gets his goods cheaper, but the presence of manu factures gives him a better market for all the produce of his farm—all the result of protection. Let him remember this when Ilemoeratic politicians preach to him the fallacious sophistries of free-trade. Practi cal experience always has and always will condemn free trade, while it commends and proves the benefit of protection. A SAD CASE. —Hoffman, of the Somerset Democrat, is in sore trouble. Alarmed at the prospct cf negro voting, he now declares that the "radical" programme will not be finished until the negro oceupies the same table and same bed with white folks. Now social equality is a matter of taste and if brother Hoffman is determined to have things so, there is no law to prevent him, but then he ought not to try to make h's neighbors believe that they must do so to. .DANIEL DOCOHXUTT, Esq., of Philadel phia, iB named as the Democratic candidate for Governor by the Sunday Dirpatch. J GUBERNATORIAL CANDIDATES. The Beaver Radical announces the fol lowing named gentleman a? candidates for Governor at the next Republican Domina ting convention, and gives a brief description of their individual claims for that high position. We will otait the comment#, how ever, and simply furnish the list of names: Gen. John F. Hurtranft, of Montgomery county, at present Auditor General. Col. L. H. Cake, of Schuylkill, member of Congress. Hon. G. Dawson Coleman, of Lebanon, late State Senator. Gon. Lemuel Todd, of Cumberland hold ing no official position. James H. Campbell, Esq., of Philadel phia, late Minister to Sweden. Wayne M'Yeigfc, Esq., attorney-al-law, of Chester, and son-in-law to Senator Cameron. Hon. John Cessna, of Bedford, member of Congress, Thos. E. Cochran, Esq., of York, for merly Auditor General' Col. Francis Jordan, of Dauphin, at present Secretary of the Commonwealth. Col. J. M. Campbell, of Cambria, now Surveyor General. D. J. Morrill, Esq., of Cambria. The Radical, in this enumeration, has omitted the names of two of the most prominent candidates who have yet been presented to the public, viz: Gen. Harry White, State Senator, of In diana, and W. W. Ketchum, Esq., of Luzerne, who, next to GSheral Geary, was the most popu lar candidate in 1866. In addition to these the following names have been mentioned, and advocated by their friends. There are doubtless many more which have not been heard: General Horace Porter, Private Secretary to President Grant, and formerly of Penn sylvania. Hon. James L. Graham. State Senator, of Allegheny. Hon. George V. Lawrence, formerly member of Congress, of Allegheny, Indiana county. Hon. Elisha W. Davis, member of Legis lature, of Philadelphia. Hon. E. Billingfelt, State Senator, of Lancaster county. HOD. Wilmer Worthington, Secretary of Board of State Charities, Chester county, and at least a dozen others whose names have escaped our memory. To this voluminous list many others will yet be added, and perhaps, the successful man has cot yet been designated. We de cline, for the present, descanting upon the merits of these aspirants. There is, in al' conscience, a sufficient variety to suit all judgments and tastes. Probably either of the candidates might make an excellent Chief Magistrate. At all events there is a sufficient number from which to make a choice. — Daily Topic. IRON ORE. — A telegraph dispatch from Bedford contains the following notice of a visit to that place, recently, by Gen. Geo. B. McClellan, and a number of leading iron manufacturers: BEDFORD, April 20. —Gen. Geo. B. Mc- Clellan and a number of leading iron manu facturers, arrived at. this place yester day for the purpose of examining the re cent discoveries of vast iron deposits in this vicinity. The location of extensive iron manufactories is in contemplation. The General and his party will spend several days in the county. If the General and his party of explorers were to visit York on a similar errand, they would find, not only "vast iron deposits" here, but some that arc decidedly vaster. Immense and inexhaustable beds of iron and steel ore abound in our immediate vicinity, and new and important discoveries are be ing made almost every day. The facilities for the manufacture of steel rails and pig iron are equal if not better in York County than any other part of the Stale; and we look forward to the day when furnaces will smoke, and rolling mills clatter in every di rection within a stones throw of the bor ough. We venture this opinion in the face of Dick Haldeman's recent rhodamontade in CongTess against a high protective tariff, for the iron interests of PenDsplvania.— Yorlc True Democrat. We are glad to hear of the discovery of mineral wealth in any part of our State or county, but beg leave to differ from our friend of the Democrat in regard to the "vaster." We yield the palm to no coun ty in the State for vast deposits of valuable iron ores, and as for facilities for cheap manufacture, we have the authority of one of the largest iron manufacturing corpora tions in the State, who have proven the assertion by actual experiment, that we can manufacture iron here cheaper than any where else in the United States, yet discov ered. But in one thing we are with our York neighbors. We have in our own county, just as they have, a copperhead ma jority, in politics, whose influence and votes are cast for free trade and British interests and against the profitable development of our vast mineral resources. For the con version of these blind followers of blind leaders, and the opening of their eyes to their own best interests, we propose to labor in common with all the true friends of American industry. W HISKEY is at last beginning to pay its just share cf taxes. It is reported from \\ ashington that the evasions and decep tions practiced by the manufacturers of dis tilled liquors are almost entirely abandoned now. The vigorous ferreting out of these tricksters by Grant s Revenue officers has at last brought them to terms, and they find it cheaper to pay their taxes honestly. The result is, that more revenue is pouring into the vaults of the Treasury than ever before from this source. So much for efficient Rev enue officers. We now will be able to re duce the taxes on some productive industry. FRANCE is agitated over the plibescitum, election, to be held to morrow. The osten sible object of the election is to give the peo ple the privilege to decide upon their gov ernment, but they are in reality only to be permitted to say whether or not they ap prove the reforms made by the Emperor since 1860, and even in this the Emperor's bayonets will take care that the people do not say no. Many of the liberals will not vote at all, because what tbey wish is so intermingled with what they oppose that they can give no expression of their true sentiments by their votes. A STEADY improvement continues in our Internal Kevenue Department.. The amount collected during the nine months ending March 31st, was $194,000,060 or $20,500,000 more than during the corres ponding nine months of the previous year. This has been done without any increase of taxation, under a steady decline in prices and a general dullness of trade consequent thereon, and affords the best evidence that under General Grant's administration the taxes are collected with increased, thorough ness, efficiency, honesty and economy. THE Senate Finance Committee has re ported unanimously against any reduction of the tax on distilled spirits. Whiskey will not, therefore, be much cheaper during the next year. There will doubtless be great complaining among the Democracy about this continued tax on their "hfrf in dustry. DEATH OF AN OLD EDITOR. We regret to announce the death at Get tysburg, on Monday last, of Robert Good loe Harper, cms of the editor* of the Stir and Sentinel. He was in the 72d year of his age and was, we believe, the oldest edi tor in the State, having edited the Adtms Sentinel from 1817 to the time of its consol idation with the St<rr and continued in the same line in the Star and Sen tin A since then, in all a period of fifty-three years.— Qettyburg Star and Sentinel. OKLAHOMA is the euphonious nsmc pro posed for a new territory about to be erect ed. It is intended to consolidate all, or as many as possible, of the Indian tribes and try the experiment of giving them a ter ritorial government of their own. The name certainly smacks very strongly of In dian. The experiment of a territorial government Las been suggested and peti tioned for by the Choctaws. It may, and we hope will, prove a success and finally solve the perplexing Indian question. J. RISSELI. YOCNG'B new paper, the New York Standard, made its first appear ance on last Saturday. It was sought for with great eagerness and in- Philadelphia every number that could be obtained was quickly sold. The Eccning Star says : "Its editorial tone is higher, its typo graphy is marked by a better and severer taste, and tbcre is a genera! aspect of ele gance that we fail to note in any other American journal." SPAIN is still in trouble and without an es tablished government. Her treasury is empty and her leaders are still fighting over the formation of a government. Serrano, one of their best men eeems inclined to re tire from public life in disgust. Prim is losiog the public confidence and things gen erally seem to be tending to anarchy. XLIST CON TILL ESS-SECOND SESSION. During the past week, nearly all ot the time in the House has been occupi d in the discussion of the new Tariff bill. The dis cussion thus far has been principally on the sections fixing the duties on iron and its manufactures. The duties fixed by the Committee of Ways and Means have been largely reduced, and the action thus far taken has been decidedly to the advantage of the free-traders. If the bill passes in the present shape, it will almost entirely de troy the iron interests of the country. Our only hope for Pennsylvania interests is that the whole bill will be defeated and the old rates of the present tariff remain. In the Senate, a great number of bills, petitions and resolutions are constantly brought up, but they are tabled, or handed over to com mittees to make room for something else, after which they can't be traced any further for some time. The following bills were introduced in the Senate: By Mr. Wilson —Providing for the selec tion of cadets to the Military and Naval Academies. By Mr. McDonald—For settlement ol the accounts between the Southern railroad cor porations and the United States Govern ment; also to allow school trustees in Ar kansas to enteT lands for school purposes undo.- the homestead law. By Mr. Morrill, of Maine —Relating to the Indian reservations selected by the Peace Commissioners. By Mr. Ross—to authorize the settle ment of the claims of Kansas for the ser vices of troops under the requisition of Gen. Price. Mr. Ames introduced a bill granting lands in aid of the Memphis and New Orleatt3 Levee Railroad Com pany. Mr. Thayer introduced a bill to make uni form the pensions of widows of naval stall officers. Mr. Fenton called up the bill authorizing the appointment of an agent to inquire rela tive to the state of trade between the Uni ted States and British North America, which, after some discussion, was referred to the Committee on Finance. Mr. Williams gave notice that he would offer a bill relating to the refining of gold and silver bullion at the mint of the United States and branches, as an amendment to the Legislative, Executive and Judicial Ap propriation bill, on the ground that it tend ed to reduce the expenses of the Govern ment in the coinage of money. Upon his motion the bill was taken from the calendar and referred to the Committee on Appro priations. A bill to provide for better security on board steam vessels and propellers, being that prepared by the Treasury Department, parsed. The House joint resolution appropriating $3,0X1 to pay the expenses of the investiga tion of the charges against General Howard, passed. A joint resolution, to regulate the effect of the vote of thanks of Congress upon pro motions in the navy, passed. The hill relative to the Circuit Courts of the L uited States prohibiting any construc tion or tHe act tnat woulj require ibc hold ing of circuit court where not required by previously existing laws, passed. A number of House bills pere passed in cluding the following: Authorizing a sup ply of arms for instruction and practice to i certain colleges and universities; for a return of the evidence of their honorable discharge to soldiers. The House joint resolution appropriating $3,000 to pay for experiments in the ventilai tion of the halls of the Capitol was passed. And in the House, Mr. Logan, from the Military Committee, reported adversely on the bill permitting retiied army and naval officers to hold civil offices. The bill donating condemned canon to the McPherson Monument Association passed. Various other private bills passed. The House refused by a vote of 42 to 88 to take up the Louisiana contested case of Darrell against Bailey, and proceeded to the business on the Speaker's table, and dis posed ola large number of unimportant bills. The Senate bill legalizing certain locjpions of agricultural scrip iu Wisconsin passed. The Senate bill granting lands to aid the construction of a railroad and telegraph from Portland to Astoria and McMinnvilie, Ore gon, excited a long debate. Mr. Stevenson, from the Committee on Elections, reported that Adolph Baily is not, and C. B. Darrall is, entitled to the seat from the Third District of Louisiana. Mr. Kerr made the minority report with the opposite conclusions. The bill to establish a Department of Jus tice was considered and passed. The joint resolution appropriating $2,000 for a portrait of General Thomas, to bo placed in a conspicious position in the Capi tol, passed unanimously, A joint resolution appropriating $3,000 for experiments in the ventilation of the hall of the House, was adopted. The Senate bill to change the time of holding United States Courts in Wisconsin, was amended and passed. The contested election case from the Fifth Louisiana District was considered and the majority report that the election held No vember 3, 1868, was illegal, was adopted. FROM CUBA. TJte Jiitvrrectum—A Counter-Revolution Imminent. WASHINGTON, April 28.— Important offi cial information has been received here from Cuba For some time it has been known to the authorities that the volunteers in Cuba were in reality the party in power, and have forced the Spanish authorities to comply with nearly all their demands. Intelligence now comes from Havanah that a con tor-re volution is sure to break out within a brief period of time, the volunteers being deter mined to wrest the island away from Spain, and make it an independent province. It has been thought hare, in diplomatic circles, For three months, that a counter-revolution was sure to take place, and the news re ceived to-day is but a conformation of auch a belief.

The greatest excitement pre vails, and hundreds of persons in the Capitol Square are weeping and wailing a3 the dead and dying are brought out of the building. Governor Walker escaped unhurt, though on the floor of the Court room at the time. About eleven o'clock the Supreme Court of Appeals of Virginia was crowded with eminent citizens and many local politicians, and a great many of the public at large, who WERE drawn there by cariosity to hear the result of the late bearing of the question as to the Mayoralty ol Richmond. The friends of Me.-; rs. Ellison and Ca boon, who comprised the prominent Repub licans and Conservatives of the city, had as sembled to hear the decision, which it was expected would be given to-day. Among the many prominent persons were ex-Gov ernor Wells, ex-Congressman Nelson, Judge John A. Meredith, Patrick 11. Aylett, ex- United States District Attorney for this District, ex-United States District Attorney L. n. Chandler, and others. At II o'clock the gallery of the court room, which was crowded, fell in. The floor followed, and all thereon descended thirty feet to the floor below, which was the floor of the House of Delegates of Virginia, on which some few of the members of a caucus were waiting around. There wis a general crush of all the timbers, and the falling of the inside wall, by which were killed the following: THE KILLED. Patrick Avlett, Captain Charters. Chief of the Eire Brigade; E.

Directly after the disaster occurred tfie fire-alarm was used to give notice, and the hook and ladder companies of the city re paired at once to the scene. A cordon of police was drawn around the building, and the ladders were thrown up to the windows. For three hou's the scene was full of hor ror. Minute after minute there appeared, swung out by a rope tied around the middle of the body of some popular favorite, who af ter beiDg swung on to the shoulders of one of the fire brigade, were brought down the lad der into the green of the public Park, where it was instantly surrounded by two or three thousand of those who had gathered to rec ognize the slain. The Park was filled with anxious, weeping women aud anxious men until two o'clock, when the last victim was drawn from the building. HISTORY OF SOME OF THE VICTIMS. WASHINGTON. April 27.—A gentleman of Richmond now here gives the following particulars of some of the persons who were killed in the calamity: Patrick Henry Ay lett was formerly the Confederate State Dis trict Attorney, and since the war has been one of the editors of the Examiner and Enquirer. He was a great-grandson of Pat rick Henry, of Revolutionary fame. Edwin M. Schofield is the youngest broth er of Major General Scbofield ; was a United •States army officer during the war, and was appointed by the Military CommanJer as Assessor for the city of Richmond. Julius A. Ilobson was an old citizen of Richmond, and for the past ten years was City Collector. Samuel A. Eaton, former ly of Boston, was an old member of the Bos ton press; was some lime attached to the Herald of that city; was once a theatrical manager, and has been Mayor's clerk since the war.

SARSAPARILLA, FOR PURIFYING THE BLOOD. The reputation this excellent medicine enjoys, is derived from its cures, many of which arc truly m&rreltocs. Inveterate cases of Scrofulous dis case, where the system seemed saturated with cor ruption, have been purified and cured by it. Scrofulous affections and disorders, which were aggravated by the scrofulous contamination until they were painfully afflicting.have been radically cured in such great numbers in almost every sec tion of the country, that the public scarcely need to be informed of its virtues or uses. Scrofulous poison is one ol the most destruc tive enemies of our raoe. Often, this unseen and unfelt tenant of the organism undermines the con stitution, and invites the attack of enfeebling cr fatal diseases, without exciting a suspicion of its presence. Again, it seems to breed infection through the body, and then, on some favorable occasion, rapidly develop into one or other of its hideous forms, either on the surface or among the vitals. In the latter, tubercles may be suddenly deposited in the lungs or heart, or tumors formed in the liver, or it shows its presence by eruptions on the skin, or foul ulcerations on some part of the body. Hence the occasional use of u bottle of this SARSAPARILLA is advisable, even when no active symptoms of disease appear. Persons afflicted with the following complaints generally find immediate relief, and, at length, c ue, ky the use of this SARSAPARILLA: St. Anthony's Fire, Rose or Erysipelas, Tetter, Salt Rheum, Scald Head, Ringworm, Sore Eyes, Sore Ears, and other eruptions or visible forms of Scrofulous disease. Also in the more concealed forms, as Ih/speptia, Dropsy, Heart Disease, Fife. Epilepsy, Aeuralgia, and the various Uleeroue affections of the muscular and nervous systems. Syphilid or Venereal and Mercurial Diseases are cured by it, though a long time is required for subduing these obstinate maladies by any med icine- But long continued use of this medicine will cure the complaint. Leucorrhcca or WLitcs, Cterini Ulceratione, and Female Diseases, are commonly soon relieved and ultimately cured by its purifying and invigorating effect. Minute Di rections for each case are found in onr Almanac, supplied gratis. Rheumatiem and Gout, when caused by accumulations of extraneous matters in the blood, yield quickly to It, as also Licet Complaints, Torpidity, Congestion or Inflamma tion of the Liver, and Jaundice, when arising as they often do, from the rankling poisons in the blood. This SARSAPARILLA is agreat resto rer for the strength and vigor ot the system. Those who are Languid and Listless, Despondent, Sleepless, and troubled with Nervous Apprehen* sions or Fears, or any of the elections symptom atic of Weakness, will find immediate relief and convincing evidence of its restorative power upon trial.

Y E K ' S II A I R V I G O K, FOR THE RENOVATION OF THE 11A1R. THE GEE A T DBSIDERA TIM OF THE AGE A dressing which is at once agreeable, healthy, ami effectual for preserving the hair. Faded or gray hair it soon restored to its original color and the gloee and freshness of youth. Thin hair is thickened, falling hair cheeked, and baldness often, though not always, cured by its use. Nothing can restore the hair where the follicles are destroyed, or the glands atrophied and decay ed. But such as remain can be saved (or useful ness by this application. Instead of fuuling the hair with a pasty sediment, it will keep it clean and rigorous. Its occasional use will prevent the hair from turning gray or falling off, and conse quently prevent baldness. Free from those dele terious substances which make some preparations dangerous and injurious to the hair, the Vigor can only benefit but not harm it. If wanted merely for a lIAIR DRESSING, nothing else can be found so desirable. Contain ing neither oil nor dye, it does not soil whito cambric, and yet lasts longer on the hair, giving it a rich glossy lustre and a grateful perfume. Preparei by DB. J. C.
