T HE GREAT FEMALE REMEDY
FOR IRREGULARITIES!
have tested these Drops in my own prac
tice, over ten years, and do not hesitate to
say, that nothing has'yet been developed by
rot dicta research, that nets so powerfully,
positively, and harmlessly, in cases of female
irregularity, as does this tnecli. ine. In all
recent cases it never fails, while thousands
who have been long suff,:rers, are indebted to
it for the'lnecin of he.iltlcto-day.
Although so powerful and positive, they are
perft;ctly harmless, and may be used ut all
times, er:ept when specially forbidden in the
directions.
They have beer extensively employed by
eminent physicians in Prance and England, as
Well as in my own practice, over ten years,
and I have yet to bear of the first instance of
White. I could give you testimenials of their
efficacy from all over the northern and west
ern States, were they not in their nature pri
vate. Over 100,00 bottles have been sold
the past year, and I hope and trust as many
sufferers have been bene6tted. 'I am well
aware that a remedy so potent to. remove al
obstructions, may be used fora bad purpose,
t trust that where one bottle is thus used,
may fall Into the hands of re.illy needy
rers.

ROAD RAMIRO.
The following hints upon this sub
ject we find worthy of consideration;
and as in the prina.mucit time Is devo
ted to repairing and making roads, we
give them for the benefit of fanners and
others:
"In road-making, one great requsite is
the ready and total removal oftle water.
There cannot be a good road Where wa
ter stands by the side of it or ion it. If
the ditches have no ready outlet,
the road bed will soak up the moisture
more or less by capillary attraction, and.
I
thus remain rutted and thud ly. It is
van to think of having a Rood road on a
subsoil ti lied with iiignant wat r. Even
on side hills, if water remains On the up
per side, it will injure the road *by pass•
ing under. Provide then, if poitstble, for
the thorough drainage of your roads,
either by surface or covered ditches.
Bee that the road-bed is evenly and
slightly rounded, so that the water can
readily find its way to the drains. If
,the soil is clayey or loamy, give It a few
inches of gravel, or even coarse, sand,
and you will have a tkiie and pleasant
passage-way. If the soil is sandy, it
needs an addition of clay to correct it,
and this wi 11 correct !tau that food roads
may be had over the lightest sandy soils."
• _, i
PLASTES ON:4CORN.
D. D. Newton, Cooper, Mich., sends
us this record of an experiment :—"On
the 13th of last June I owed six bushels
of plaster on two-thirds of nine acres of
corn, putting a handful on each hill in
sixteen rows, and skipping eight. The
corn was cut up in Sa tember. putting
eight rows in a row of shocks. The rows
were all alike, being forty rods long; the
rows plastered yielded from three to six
bushels of ears more than those unplas
tered, and the corn was sounder. I shall
try the same experiment again this year.•
The corn was planted tin st , heavy elover
sod, and the soil was very, wet at the
time the plaster was put on."
SPROIng AND EvEs.—The root of the
potato sprout or eye extends to the cen
ter of the tuber. Sever the sprout or eye
from its root, and you lessen its vigor.
In proof of this, pare off the outside of
the potato to the depth of one eight of
an inch, and tneghsule, if planted, will
commonly grew, but it will grow feebly.
Plant the paring, and it will grow fee
bly just in proportion to its thinness.
Cut a potato as you wilt, the smaller the
piece, the more feebly it will grow. As
to planting small potatoes, it is contrary
to all analogy. When farmers winnow
ed theft' wbeat in the wind, they kept
the but of the heap for seed. Gardeners
always prefix the middle head of the
parsnip for seed. Thus with all kinds of
seeds; the largest, most perfect and best
ripened are always preferred.—Ncto Eng
land Farmer.
kNrRE SHOULD. BE WELL MIXED
WITH TILE SOlL.—Prof. Way, in his lee
t"res before the Royal Agricultural
Society of England, said his experiments
showed that the soil was no idle specta
tor of what took place in it; that it was
not a mere meeting place for the roots of
plants and the food they were to grow
a°lon, but that it was actually the stom
kof the plant. Or be might go fur
ther, and say that nature had actually
given to the soil
,the function and office
which in animals is performed by gas
tric juice and the chyle—that of prepa
ring and digesting the food_ of plants.
This is perhaps somewhat tancifhl, but
that it is veryndvantageous to thorough
ly incorporate Manure with the soil, no
observing farmer can doubt.
CURES Yon PoLt. Evn..—J. E. Cole,
Steuben Co., N. Y., says be never failed
to cure poll evil by first "wailriiig the
sore clean with warm- soap suds, and.
then sprinkling on a teaspoonful of sale
ratus once a day until a cure Is effected,
which will be speedy."
P. NV., Trny, Pa:, says, "take four
quarts of mandrake roots, boil them in
water to get a strong decoction, then add
one, pint of hogs' lard and simmer it
down to a salve. This Is rubbed on once
a day and heated In with a warm shovel.
I have tried it for twenty years and nev
er knew It to fail."—Rural New Yorker.
STARCH IN POTATOF.B.—Dr. Nessler t of
the touchy of Baden, has shown by anal
ysis! that the nutritive value of potatoes
varies with their size, and in favor of Ici
.i
cre ed bulk. Potatoes about two inches
in ismeter contain 17.2 per cent. of
star IL and those about the.size of wal
nuts 14 6 per cent. We infer that full
growth is necessary to full development
of starch.
,POINTS-IN A GOOD MILICKR.—A corres
pondent in the Country Gentleman says:
"In selecting a milker, look well to
the udder.' Before milking it should be
wide and •broad, not hanging down like
a sack; and hind and shiny, nearly des
titute of hair, and what there is should
be fine, short and bright. After milk
ing, the udder should be soft, and appa
rently a skin bag. lf, after milking, the
udder Li bard and full, it shows that it Is
flesh, not milk, that distends it."

lAPIIIINO INTO BARNALRINM.
A writer in the New York Times—a
Bureau agent we infer—describes the
condition of the negroes who inhabit the
once rich and productive Sea Islands, on
the coast of S. Carolina. It is plain that
the negroes are falling back rapidly to
the condition of their African fore
fathers. The almost brute condition
which Du Chaffin and Livingstone ob
served among the heathen natives of
Africa will probably soon characterize a
large portion of "the American citizens
of African descent." The correspondent
of the Times says: "The greatest fears
are to be entertained by every thought
ful person concerning the future count
tion of these Sea Island peopile. * *
I am living with my family on a plan
tation among them, where I have lived
for the last four years." The writer then
goes on to describe acondltion of immor
ality and licentiousness which we do
not care to exhibit in our columns. He
adds: "It'was not so when I first came
here. This fearful condition was brought
about by Union officers and soldiers. No
persons were so who were under my
supervision, because I was careful to
keep them away from Beaufort and from
camps. Husbands and wives are con
stantly returning to their fornfer com
panions, to find them in new relations
of long standing, and with new sets of
Children. * * * 'Divorces are granted
by pertflisqion of ch u reh authorities, com
posed entirely of blacks. *• * * Un
der the Freedmen's Bureau there is no
practical system of ifivorce adopted—at
least not here. Persons legally married
separate at will, and again marry other
parties in all the forms of law. Persons
by the score live together 'just BO' with
out any form of marriage. These peo
ple * * * have recently attained to
full civil rights, and will rapidly become
independent and .defiant, In their way
of thinking and acting, and so will soon
be beyond the reach of all restraining
influences to rot in their own corruption."

who were in the same state of elevation,
to cross the Brandywine Creek-by a foot
`bridge constructed of a single log thrown
across, am! hewn flat ou the upper side,
but without any hand-rail to aid in the
transit. There would have beim no dif
ficulty with a clear head and steady legs
in crossing; but with our party it was
felt to be not, devoid of difficulties "un
der existing circumstances." However,
the creek must be crossed. Grimes' two
friends took the lead, and with much
swinging of anus and contortion of body
reached the farther side. It was now
Grimes' turn to face the music, aud,

this legislative feat* was heralded as •
magnificent achievement. Radical
newspaper! congratulated the farmers of
the State thereupon, and assured them
that this was only a small sample olt
what would eventually be done for them.
Under such Peon om I cal administration
of the State Government as character
ised Democratic rule, this reduction
the revenue might not have been found
detrimental to the financial interests of
the State. We could have got along
without IL Rot not so under the pres
ent regime. The late corrupt Radical
Legislature appropriated more money
than could possibly be furnished by ex
isting rates of taxation. Even after
they had imposed a heavy tax on coal
and other resources of the State, It was
found that there would be a defielency.
What was to be done? It would not do
to restore the tax on real estate, just af
ter repealing it with such a grand flour
ish of trumpets; and yet the money
must be had to pay extra salaries to
members of the leglslattlre, to supporta
small army of dependants about the two
Houses, to furnish stealings for petty of.
deltas, to pay extraordinary prices for
a portrait of his Majesty, John W. Gee- ,
ry, to enlarge the Executive Mansion, to
keep up a useless agency at Washington,
to provide for the maintenance of a
standing army to menace 1140 foreigners
and the Catholics of the milling regions,
and for a multitude of other extraordina
ry and improper purposes.
Radical Ingenuity has never yet been
at a loss for a device, when an opportu
nity for plundering either the State or
the National Treasury was presented.
They did nut restore the tax on real es

but they did what amounted to precisely
the same thing. They passed a law re
quiring the Commissioners of the sever

the State Treasury an additional sum of
$300,000 ; the precise amount formerly
derived from the tax on real estate. Of
course the farmers know who pay the
county tax,which is to be thus increased.
It is notorious that the rural districts
pay more than a proportionate share of
it. This is another specimen of the wis

PETTY: PILFER'S&
Almost every newspaper hills State,
without exception as to party, has de
nounced the wholesale stealing done by
the Radical majority of the recent Leg
islature. The Harrisburg. Patriot &
Union gives an account Of the petty pil
fering carried on under the auspices of
that body. It shows a condition of af
fairs winch is most disgraceful, but the
account is unquestionably true in all re
spects. The Patriot says: -
We understand that all the nice rugs,
wds, and other portable necessaries in
and around the legislative, halls have
already disapeared. This, we are told,
is the regular order of things after every
adjournment of the legislature. At the
next meeting the halls, committee rooms
Ate., will require to be completely refurn
ished, in these respects, al a cost of many
thousand dollars. It is a singular tact,
that, since the Radicals came into power,
the public buildings and offices are an
nually refitted and, refurnished, at a
heavy cost , to the State, and yet there
has never been a sale—public or private
—so far as the,audited reports show, of
surplus furnishings. Huntiredsoldesks,
tables, chairs, dtc., and thousands of
yards of costly carpet*, oilcloths, matting,
drub. et, to say nothing of thousands of
small portable articles Of many kinds,
have disappeared and "made no sign. '
The amount of brooms and soup an
nually required about the Capitol and
public offices is almost beyond belief.—
Singular to say, however, the larger the
bills for those things the more defilement
results. We are told that thousands of
brooms and tons of soap—so-called—are
charged to and paid for by the State an
nually, when, if properly billed, brooms
would read beer, and soap would spell
whisky, brandy and gin. A friend
tells us that, is year or two ago, be fre
quently saw messengers from the Hill
carrying suspicious-looking packages
from a•neighboring grocery. Being in
timate wieh i i he grocer, ho put the ques
tion to -him—how could be get, liquor
bills audited and passed? "Oh t u replied
the grocer, with a smile, "that is easy
enough. I charge it as brooms and
soap." We presume this way Of dodging
it is still going on, particularly as the
amount of glassware consumed is alto
immense.
It is evident that somebody (perhaps
several somebodies) gets the proper
that disappears without paying for it,
and without any right to it. This hi all
wrong. In plain terms, it is theft, and
should be stopped. In other States and
at the Federal Capitol surplus and half
worn ffirniture and furnishings are sold
at auction to the highest bidder. This
plan should be adopted here, and the
sooner It is adopted the better for the
taxpayers.

his son 'here (as be has for teug or five
