IS--J5.-IJ.J Ayer's Sarsaparilla Is widely- kiowm as one of the most effectual remedies ever discorcred for clean sin? the a-s-tem and ptirifying the blood. It has rtood the tent of year, with eoo etantlj growing rep utation, based on it Intrinsic virtues, and sustained by its re markable cures. So ruild as to be safe and beneficial to children, and yet so searching as to effectually purge out the great cor ruptions of the blood, such as the scrofulous and syphilitic contamination. Impurities, or dineases that hare lurked in the system tr years, soon yield to this powerful anti dote, and disappear. Hence its wonderful cures, many oi which are publicly known of Scroi'iila, and all scrofulous diseases, Ulcers, Kmptions and eruptive dis nlers of the skin, Tumors, Illotclios, Hoils, IMmpIo, Pustules, Sores, St. Anthony's Fire, Hose or Erysipe las Tetter, Salt ltliciini, Scald Head, JtiiiRivorin, and internal Ul cerations of the Uterus, Stomach, flinl Liver. It als-o cures other com plaints, to which it would not seem especi ally adapted, such as Dropsy, Dyspep sia, Fits NeurHlplu, Heart Disease, Female Weakness. Debility, and LieucorrlHCa, when they arc manifesta tions of the scrofulous poisons. It is an excellent restorer of health and strength in the Spring. I?y renewing the appetite and vigor of the digestive organs, it dissipates the depression and listless lan guor ot the season. Even where no disorder a pilars, jieople feel letter, and live longer, for cleansing the blood. The system moves on with renewed vigor and a new lease of life. PREPARED nr Dr. J. C.

She was about throwing the pipe, when her foot slipped aud down she went, falling plump into the arms of Carlwright, who I thus saved her from being hurt. "Oh, dear !" said the blushing girl, as she released herself aud passed the pipe to her father. Meanwhile, the boat had glided past the ship's bow, and a huge cow w hale had just como up, scarcely thirty fathoms ahead. "This is bad.

The following from an exchange is too good to be lost. ' It comes in Just now very appropriately, too. Because times are hard, some people ', have an idea that they can get along with- ' out taking a newspaper, and thereby, as they suppose, save a few dollars a year, when the truth is that the loss of a paper may work irreparable los to them and their Children : "Books aud newspapers encourage-almost create a thirst for knowledge iu children. It is far easier to give a child a practical education with six months' schooling i3r year, with plenty of reading matter at home, than it is with ten months' schooling and no books and newspapers in your house. This is no fancy, but a positive fact ; and yet how many parents there are who will spare no reasonable expense in sendins their chil dren to school, but if asked to subscribe for a newspaper, will answer, T can't af ford it T' How stupid and inconsistent ! The truth is, they cannot afford to do with out it. Children who are very fond of readinng very seldom seek- other a'nuse ment away from home. Who would not prefer thai his boy should sit reading by the fireside at home than roaming about where ho is almost sure to fall iuto bad company and acquire pernicious habits? Take a good assortment of papers, and let every one in the house have free access to them. Don't be too particular about their ly"u.g scattered about. When you have a few spare moments you are almowt sure to be reading one if in reach. Above all things, let them 'muss' them over the baby and all, for children who ate brought up among books and newspapers rarely injure one. Never make a practice of bor- mi. It has been truly said rowing papers. It has been truly that 'a newspajter fs ltk a wife) because every man should have one of his own.'

Newspapers, in particular, were not printed to lend. They are too perishable and frail."" A Valuable Recife. An excellent remedy for chronic Summer Complaint and one that we never remember seeing iu print one, also that can do no one Bny harm (which many of the mixtures of laud auum, camphor, pepper etc., are likely to do), to j e i sons much weakened by tho continuance of the disease is to make a white flannel bag, about 10 inches long aud 5 inches wide, put into it half a pound of j finely gi-ouud Peruvian bark, sew up the, end, spread the bark evenly and then quilt it nicely to keep the bark iu place. Sew tape on tho coruers and tic it around the waist, the longest part across the bowels, and wear it night and day, (making a new ouc, of course, when soiled; for four or five months, if necessary, or, until you can eat anything you please. A friend of ours, who suffered at times for 12 years from chronic Summer Complaint contracted iu j India, ami who was obliged to deny himself I of every thin"; iu the way of vegetables or suffer the penalty of an attack, was relieved iu a short time and finally cured with this remedy. You want nothing but the dry Peruvian batk quilted in the flannel bag ; the perspiration of the body will do tho rest. Advice to Girls, An exchange says : "Why will girls run away toget married ?" We give it up, answers the Louisville Courier-Journal. But we know a lot here that would le glad enough to stay at home or jump at the chance to w alk off and get man ied. The boys niu't around asking them like they did takes more money to run one of thetn nowadays than it does to run a steamboat. Ah! girls, it's your own fault. Swap off your silks aud satins for lawns aud calicoes ; shut up the piano and divo into a wash tnb ; throw away your fancy needle work and tackle a led-hot stove in the kitchen. Instead of receiving Brown, the banker's son, iu the parlor, keep your eye skinned for Bill Burns, the blacksmith's son, as he goes home from work, kiss his dirty face thiough a broken nanp nf rrl;, cr in tliA ltitctipn witidonr and after awhile, when he learns bis trade, and r. . -i i . t , . . . . you know your business, get mariied, go to housekeeping by yourself, help each other, live happy, raise a family that will be an honor to your names and credit to themselves, die happy, and the angels will not turu their backs on you up there. Tit et are takiug evidence in a divorce case for cruelty ; the husband is under ex amination ; his wife, prostrated with grief, is weeping bitterly, coveringjher face with her handkerchief. "Now,"says the Judge, "are you not ashamed to have thus brutal ly treated your wife, a tender young woman of twenty five ?" "I beg your pardon," she sobs "twenty-four, only ;" and she ngain gives way to her grief. Some men object to women as insurance agents. They say that when a bright eyed woman comes into a fellow's office, pulls up a chair, lays a soft white hand on his arm and begins to talk about policies the victim feels as if he ought to have his life iusured at once. And if his wife hap pens to look in just then, he is morally csr. J tain that there is no time to lose. . Governor Tiltten'tt Income Tar. AS 1SDEPENOKNT commercial Fateu re views THE FALSE CHAROE.

Yet now we see the slander assumed as proved, and boldly stated by newspapers and speakers everywhere, although the facts show that ! theie never was a more baseless charge made. What are the facts? It seems that in December, 18G3, Governor Tilden, like all the rest of us, made a return under ! oaUl vt LS I"00018 fwr lbe year 18!2, sub- ject to taxation under the law, a little over . tf 7,000. In a suit now pending on behalf or tne tt. Louis, Alton & Terre Haute railroad, the Governor sxoie that he re ceived iu 1802 $20,000 for services which were "commenced prior to the year lti"i! and were rendered from lime to lime dur ing a period of three years." These are tlie simple facts and the whole of them. i ud on. tuem .t!,e c!"'fic is uuade of ierjury, ' oven nun tr m A . .- . .... I .... I .. . i . . mr remeVy tor and that is whether, under assuming or jumping over entirely the one a conclusion, the law. the $20,000 received from the railroad should be included in ihe return. Assuming, we say, that this (20,000 should be included, w bile the instructions of Internal Revenue Commissioner Lewis, issued at that time, state clearly and positively that it should not be included. For the benefit of those who may have forgotten those instructions, we insert the following extinct 'akeu fioni them, as published in our Hunt' Mer ehanW Magazine for August, 18G3, page 139 A merchant's return of income should cover this business of the year 1S62, exclud ing previous years. Uncollected accounts must be estimated. Physicians and law yers should include actual receipts for ser vices rendered in 18G2, together with an estimate on unrealized or conligeut income due to that year. Here we have it positively stated that the "actual receipts for services it-iideied in 18fi2," "excluding previous years," with an estimate of "uncollected accounts" or "unrealized income" from the business or services of 18f2, are the items to be includ ed. This same idea was enforced in the commissioner's subsequent instt uctioiis of that year, and more minutely to revenue collectors, In fact the commissioner made this so cleat that no one had a doubt as to the meaning. So all of us in piepaiing our returns of income from our business, included what we had earned, and not what we had collected, iu lb'CS ; and if Governor Tilden perjured hinibelt in mak ing his return iu that way, every honest man iu the country did the same. Our city newspajiers concured in this view, as may be seen from their remarks published at that time iu further explanation of what lite commissioner said. Now, turning to this $20,000 item, we find the answer states that it was received iu 18!2, but for services which we "commenced prior to the year 18.19," and were render, d from tune to time during a period of three . " 1 in other words according to this staiemeut, no portion ot tlie amount was , earned in 1WJ, but all of it during the i three years 1859, I860, and 1761.

HIS SYMPATHY FOR 1 IIF. AVI IIKAN ALLI ANCE ROMF-THINO KhK FolU.loN VOTERS TO t'ONSI IW'.U. We have received the following letter from Mr. Chailes Gardner, of Cincinnati, dated September 3 : In your Issue of yesterday yon say : "Mr, Hayes fissures us over his own .signaluio that he "deeply sympathizes wiih a tnovo ment for an amendment limiting m?ri;igu to km sons born in this couniiy or of Ameri can parents,' and the choice oi 'Auiei icu Ihhii citizens only to otticials i-ositions.

Mayes, over li s own signature- or in any oilier way, ever said any such thing. If you can prove it, do so and make one Vote for your trouble, for, though n ICepiiblicnn, 1 sl.a',1 vote for Mr. Tilden if what you say of Mi. llayea is true. We think that Mr. Gardner will vote, for Tilden. And thin is why ; The "Aaier lean Alliance'' adopted a series of resolul ions which said of the noin- , - . of American iriiici;les. at adroctittd m i set forth in thei reolutor,n, to give Unto nominations au active aud dclei mined sup port." "These resolutions" were sent to Mr. Hayes, who returned the following reply, dated Jnly 5, 1876, addiessed to uintiui J. Tyner, Secretary of the American Alli ance'' : T have Just received your letter infbrm- I 'n(t me of my electiou as a member ot vur , odmirabls Allianre. Bet urn my thanks to -,,e. Alliance, as 1 deeply nympnthize vith ut prinetpttw. I remain your fellow citi.un, H. B. IUtls. Now here is one expression of the "p.i -cip.es" of the Alliance of which Mr. liya.t is pi oud to lie x member and with which he "deeply sympathizes": "All amendment to the iialu ali latiott laws limiting suffrage to ersoii born in Ihis country or of American parents ; lLo election of American born ritiin$ only u ojjictol poitioti$ iu ibis countiy; t-pposi-tion to the inteiference of the lloir.au Catholic orgauizaliu 8 iu t le political af fatre of this nation, ami opposition to tho formation of political organizations com Ijsed exclusively of foreign-born citizen." W'e may add to this that ten days ago a foreign-born citizen of Brookly u "w rote to Mr. Hayes asking him if it was true that ho held to such Know Nothing view s, and that Mr. Hayes has not thus far dclgucd to reply or to icttiin the stamps inc)td him for au answer. And uow will Mr. Chailes Gardner not give us that vote for Tilden? A. HVrW. Some Figures. Some one asked tho editor of the Cincinnati Gazette to si ate tho sum of the national debt iu lti". aud in 1876, to which the Gav-elle replies that the "public debt, according to Secretary Me..

These state ments include the legal tender notes (greenbacks), and all other forms of indebt edness. TLe reduction, therefore, in the debt which was adjusted at that time, is $6."y,388,26l.37." Now supMsc we admit all thts to bo true and th- u l.x.k. a little further.

In other words the amount collected has been four time a muc a the. trh'tle pvblic debt in IS 5.
