What is more fearful than a breaking down of the nor volts system? To be excitable or nervous in a small de gree is most destressing, for where can a remedy be found? There is one :—drink but little wine, beer, cr spirits, or far better, none; take no coffee,—weak tea being prefera ble ; get alt the fresh air you can ; take three or four Pills every night: eat plenty of solids, avoiding the use of elope; and if these golden rules are followed, you will be happy in mind and strong in body, and forget you have any narves. MOTHERS AND DAUGHTERS If there is one thing more than another for which these Pills are so famous, it is their purifying properties, es pecially their power of clensing the blood from all im purities, and removing dangerous and suspended secre tione. Universally adopted as the one grand remedy for female complaints, they never fail, never weaken the systern, and :always brings about what is required. SICK HEADACHES AND WANT OF APPETITE. TheeP fceling,s which so sadden us, most frequently arise from annoyances or trouble, from obstructed prespi ration, or from eating and drinking what is unfit for us, thus disordering the liver and stomach. These organs must be regulated if you wish to be well. The Pills, if takes according to the printed instructions, will quickly restore a healthy action to both Iher and stomach, whence follow as a natural conseqence, a good appetite and a clear u.ad. In the East and West Indies scarcely any other medicine is ever used for these disorders. HOW TO BE STRONG. Never let the bowels be confined or unduly acted upon. It may appear singular that Holloway's Pills should be recommended for a run upon the bowels, many persons supposing that they would increase relaxation. This is a great mistake, however; for these Pills will immediately correct the liver and stop every kind of bowel complaint. In warm climates thousands of lives have been saved by the use of this medicine, which in all cases gives tone and vigor to the whole organic system, however deranged,— health and strength following as a matter ofcourse. The appetite, too, is wonderfully Increasol by the use of these Pills, combined in the use of solid In preference to fluid diet. Animal food to better than broths and stews. By removing acrid, fermented, or other impure humors from the liver, stomach, or blood, the cause of dysentery, diar rlicea, and other bowel complaints is expelled. The result is, that the disturbance is arrested, and the action of the bowels becomes regular. Nothing will stop the relaxa tion of the bowels so quickly as this tine correcting med icine. DISORDERS OF THE KIDNEYS In all diseaLes affecting these organs, whether they secrete too much or too little water ;or whether they be afflicted with stone or gravel, or with aches and pains settled in the loins over the regions of the kidneys, these Pi:ls should be taken according to the printed directions, and the Ointment, should be well rubbed into the small of the Isick at bedtime. This treatment will give almost Im mediate relief when all other means have failed. FOR STOMACHS OUT OF ORDER. No medirine will so effectually improve the tone of the sbunach as these pills; they remove all acidity, occasioned either by intemperance or improper diet. They reach the liver and reduce it to a healthy action; they are won derfully efficacious in cases of spasm—in fact they never fail in curing all disorders of the liver and stomach.

They were men of desperate courage, who had taken their lives in their hands too often to care for the dangers of the life they led. Caleb—or Cale—White was a man who stood six feet two inches in his moccasins ; a man whom you would hardly care to meet in the close tug of a desperate battle. his hard brown face was seamed with scars from bullet., knife and claws of wild beasts; and his muscular body showed the marks of many a desperate struggle. Sam Tulley was the beau ideal of a mountaineer. Although not so powerful as Cale, be was a man of great personal strength and desperate courage. For many a year these two had roamed the trapping grounds together, fighting Indians, grizzlies and wolves; chafed by night over the burning prairie ; defending their camp against the sudden attack of red fiends, or spending recklessly, at the stations, the money which they had earned so hardly on the trapping ground. They had been out all winter, and as spring approached the last cache was cov ered, and the trappers begun to think of returning home. The camp was built up near the river, a tributary of the Snake, which flowed through dismal canyons, in which the light of day never shcne; under the shadow of giant cliffs upon which human beings nev er yet set foot, and only spreading out at places where the cunning beaver had built .his dam. The river was broken by great rapids and abounded in rare fish, upon which they had feasted royally for many days. There was not a particle of ice in the channel now, fur the rushing torrent had swept it down to the great river. They had a canoe, and had been discussing the chances of going down the stream in that, in order to save time. "I'm ready to take the chances, if you are, Cale." "I don't like to give myself away," said Caleb White. "What do we know about the river, after we get down to the big canyon, and who ever passed through it ?" "That's the fun of the thing, Cale; we do what no one else ever dared to do." "I don't like it," replied White, who was by far the most prudent of the two. "I—ha! what is that ?" They seized their weapons and ran to the door of the hut, just in time to see a dozen Indians running down through the grass, blocking up the only way of escape. The moment the repeating rifles began to play upon them they went out of sight among the rocks and begun their gradual approach, which could only end in one way—the white trappers would be over whelmed. "There is only one chance, Cale," cried Sam Tully. "And that ?" "The canoe." "I'm your man," cried the giant trap per. "You push the canoe into the water, and throw in the weapons, while I keep these fellows in play. Ah ! would you? Take that !" An Indian had raised his tufted head, to get a better shot at the trappers, but be fore be could get back the unfailing eyes of the., trapper had looked through the double sights and the rifle cracked. The Indian sprung suddenly to his feet, spun sharp round upon his heel, and fell dead in his tracks. The next moment the canoe shot out from the bank, and headed down through the boiling flood, plunging into the canyon below so rapidly that the Indians had scarcely time to recover from their amaze meat at the sudden exodus before they were out of sight. One of the Indians bounded to his feet, and uttered a low sig. nal whoop, and two large canoes, contain ing in all about fifteen men, rounded a point in the river above and came flying down under the strokes of the paddles. The Indians on the shore simply pointed down the stream, and the canoes dashed by at a furious rate of speed, the wild yell of the paddlers announcing to the white men that they were pursued. The first rapid passed, they entered a long stretch of water, where the current was only four or five miles an hour ; and here the propelling force in the other ca noes begun to tell, and they gained rapidly. On each side of the canoes the canyon rose like a wall, two hundred feet in height, and they could only put all their strength in the paddles and dash on as fast as they could. Two miles further, and the canoes were scarcely a hundred yards behind, the Indians yelling like demons, as they saw the foe almost in their grasp. Cale White shook his head, as he looked over his shoulder, when his canoe was sud denly seized by a mighty force and hurled downward, like a bullet from a rifle. They had struck another rapid, more powerful than the first, and the rocks absolutely seemed to fly past them. "This is something like it," cried the daring Sam Tully. "How we do move ?'' "I should say that we did, old boy," re plied Cale. "I am only afraid that we are moving a trifle too fast." "Don't you believe it. Those fellows seem to be standing still." "They will get it in a moment. Look at that." -• ,;• rzw f 2 The headmost canoe appeared upon the crest of the rapid, and came flying down after them at furious speed. The Indians no longer used their paddles, with the ex ception of the man who sat in the stern, and by a touch on the water, now on this side then on the other, regulated the course of the canoe. The second canoe followed in a moment, a little further in shore. As they gazed, the bow of the last canoe was suddenly lifted into the air, as it struck a brown rock in the channel, which the occupants had tried in vain to avoid. The fierce current caught the stern, and in an instant there was nothing left of the light craft save broken fragments, while the oc cupants, with loud shrieks of terror, were borne swiftly on by the resistless tide. co co "That ends them," said Cale White. "Be careful, Sam ; for your life." On, on. borne by the power which they could not resist, the two canoes were hur ried. There was a sense of wild exultation in the hearts of the white men, for they could see that their enemies would have gladly escaped, if they could, from the per ils which surrounded them. Their mad desire for scalps and plunder had led them into a trap, and they no longer thought of the canoe before them. They knew, as the whites did not, the terrible danger be fore them ; for they had explored the banks of the stream on foot many times. The river suddenly narrowed, and they rushed into a canyon barely twenty feet, HUNTINGDON, PA., FRIDAY, AUGUST 25, 1876. wide, nearly roofed over by the cliff upon each side. The current was not quite so rapid here, and they guided the canoe more easily. "This gets interesting, Call," said Sam Tully, as they went on through the narrow pass. "We are going"— "To our death !" replied Cale White, in a solemn voice. "Do you hear the falls ?" Through the splash of water and the dip of the paddles they heard a low, dead, tremulous roar, which was the sound of falling water. For a moment the bronzed face of Sam Tully blanched, and then he drew his figure up proudly. "Better than the scalping knife or the stake, old friend. As the Frenchman says: `Vivo la mort !'" Long live death ! It was before them, for, as they shot out of the narrow pass, they saw the fall before them, bow high they could not tell; but the smoke which arose showed that it was not a small one. "Keep her head to it," cried Cale. "If we don't get through it, good-bye forev er." The swift current caught them, and the canoe. hurled forward with terrible force, went flying toward the verge. A moment more and it shot out into the mist, and went down into the unknown depths. Each man clung to his paddle, as he went down, held by an invisible power, whirled to and fro, as in a maelstrom, and then shot up in to light, below the falls. Far below them the canoe floated, and as the rapid current swept them down, the two men looked back, in time to see the other canoe come over the fall, sideways, without an occupant. It was hurled far out, and fell lightly on the water, only to be arrested by the strong hand of Cale White. The Indians, appalled by their danger, had upset the canoe in their frantic efforts co escape. What become of them the trap pers never knew, fur when they reached the foot of the rapid, far below the falls, and righted the canoe, they made no pause, but hurried down the stream, and before night were safely floating in the waters of Snake river. Two days later they reached a fort in safety. Ely4tampaijpt. National Republican, Aug. 9, 1576.1 Thomas A.

The following documents, the correct ness of which are fully vouched for by some of the best men in Indiana, will be read with startling interest. They fully account for the popularity of Hendricks with Southern Democrats : DISUNION DEMOCRATIC TICKET. Episode in the Life of the ion. Thomas A. Hendricks. The Oakland Daily Transcript, July 1. 18761 TILE CAMP MORTON AFFAIR, In one particular the nominations of the St. Louis Convention are a 3 strong as could be made. Both candidates are essentially disunion Democrats, and the ticket may therefore be expected to inspire the ut most enthusiasm of the party. Gov. Til den is the reputed author of the infamous resolution adopted at the Chicago Demo cratic Convention in 1864, which declared the war a failure and demanded au imme diate cessation of hostilities after the vic tory had been won by the Union armies and when the rebellion was on its last legs. As to Mr. Hendricks, it is well known that he was in open sympathy with the Southern Confederacy, and did everything in his power to create destruction in the West and take those States out of the Union. To establish this fact it is only ne cessary to make a rapid review of THE CAMP MORTON CONSPIRACY, in which Hendricks was a leading actor. Some time in June, 1862, a great Dem ocratic mass meeting was called to meet in Indianapolis, ostensibly a political meeting, but the real purpose being to seize Camp Morton, liberate the rebel prisoners, get possession ofthe arsenal, and give the State of Indiana over to the Confederacy. More than fifty thousand Secession Democrats attended from all parts of the State, and nearly all armed with revolvers. At that time the State of Indiana had 90,000 Union soldiers at the front. Camp Morton was garrisoned by only two regiments, and these were poorly armed, having no can non, so that the capture of that post by so vast a number of armed men seemed altogether feasible. On the morning of the meeting an expose of the treasonable order of the Knights of the Golden Circle had been published in the Journal and Gazette, by Col. A E. Redstone, now of Oakland, who, under various disguises, had worked his way into a number of their lodges and learned the purpose of the con vention. Great excitement prevailed in the city, and all expected that a collision of the swarming rebel Democracy and the handful of Union troops would occur du ring the day. On the previous evening General Carrington, the commander of Camp Morton, had sent to Chicago and obtained several cannons, and these un known to the great crowd of insurgents, were held in readiness for the emergency. When the crowd had assembled and the speakers and officers had taken their place on the stand, Col. Redstone mounted the platform, seized one of the small flags, and, waving it aloft, called for 'THREE CHEERS FOR THE BOYS AT THE FRONT and for the final triumph of the Union cause," and the crowd, not understanding the precise situation, cheered lustily. At length the mistake was discovered, some one drew a pistol threatening to shoot the daring interloper, and as small sqauds of Union men had been stationed at intervals through the vast assemblage, a general fight was imminent. At this point Red stone called to the Union men to "train that cannon upon the stand," and although no cannon was in sight there was an im mediate and precipitate retreat of the un terrifled, Hendricks and * * * * they being the first to leap from the stand and settle the adjacent fence. The Union men then took possession of the platform and held a rousing meeting. A part of the rebel Democracy repaired to their hall, but their original purpose having been discovered and defeated their subsequent proceedings were spiritless. When returning home in the evening the Democratic ruffians fired from the cars upon the Soldiers' Home, wounding one of the inmates. This arous ed the whole city. Cannons were brought to the depot and planted in front of the trains, after which the Union men went through the cars disarming the passengers, collecting altogether about five thousand revolvers and other small fire arms. Such is a rapid sketch 4::,f a well-known historical event in which Gov. Hendricks was a leading participator. There is no doubt that Hendricks and * * * * were the projectors and leaders of the conspira cy, which was only defeated by the cour age and firmness of a few Union men. It is not to be supposed that Hendricks' par ticipation in that infamous affair WILL DIMINISH HIS POPULARITY with a party which was notoriously in sym pathy with the rebellion ; but it remains for the more enlightened and patriotic people of the country to decide whether a man of such antecedents may be safely advanced to a position so near the heii of the Government. The above newspaper article was inclos ed in the following letter from Judge R. B. Hall, of California, directed to Gil A. E. Redstone, Washington city, I). C.: Judge R. B. Hall's Reply. OAKLAND, CAL., July 1, 1876. Col. A. E R,edstone, Washington, D. C. : Sitt: In conversation to-day with your old friend, Captain A. P. Wilson, of San Francisco, I learn that you know, of a truth, that Hendricks, the Democratic nominee for Vice President, actually join ed the secret, treasonable order of the "KNIGHTS OF THE GOLDEN CIRCLE," in Indiana during the war. Since the same treasonable elements arc again seek ing to take the reins of Government, it at once becomes the duty, as it should be the pleasure, of every loyal citizen to place the seal of his disapprobation on all candidates for Government offices who lent aid and comfort to traitors in arms. You will con fer a favor on the writer, as well as the Union voters in both parties, by giving all the facts connected with the affair within your personal knowledge. Very respectly, R. B. HALL. Reply of Col. A. E. Redstone. WASHINGTON, D. C., July 14, 1876. lion. B. B. Hall, Oakland California : Sir : Please find statement concerning the matters inquired about in your letter of July Ist instant. While in California, in 1856, I obtained from a member of the "Nicarauguan Ex pedition," who I met in the mines, the full ritual of the "Knights of the Golden Circle." I returned to Indiana in 1859. After the war broke out, a man by the name of Daniel Spear, living now near In diat)apolis, informed me of the meeting of the society, using the same signs that the man from Nicaraugua had explained to me. I requested him to keep silent and I would find out the nature of the associa tion. I met them at Orm's Mill, a short distance south of Indianapolis, accompanied by Sergeant Charles Roberts 63J regiment Indiana volunteers, both in disguise ;he Taking a slight mistake was kept outside, but where he could see what was going on inside. It was at one of these meetings I heard the report made by the adjutant that THOMAS A. HENDRICKS AND * * * * WERE MAJOR UENERALS, * * * * was the commander-in-chief of the Northwest of the "Knights of the Golden Circle," a treasonable organization, the design of which was to establish a 'Northwestern Confederacy." It was in this treasonable organization, that the plot was laid to assassinate Gov. Morton, seize the armory, and put arms into their hands, and give over the State of Indiana to the Southern Confederacy, and the time for the consummation of this scheme was the assembling of the Famous Democratic Convention May 20, 1863." The evening before the convention met I made a full expose of the signs. grips, password and preamble, which disconcer ted them to the extent that they did not dare use them unless to those they were sure they had met in the organization.— The facts, as I remember thew, are as fol lows : THE CONVENTION Just as McQuoit, 4n iron merchant, had put up the last flag, before the commence ment, I remarked to a friend "that the old battle flag, inscribed 'Winchester,' should not be desecrated altogether,"stepped upon the stand, and pointing to the flags, said to the multitude gathered : "Gentle men, do you see those old battle-torn flags ? Let's give three hearty cheers for those old flags and the Union." (They were given under the mistake that I was one of the Democratic managers.) "Now, three cheers for the brave boys who gallantly bore them through the hard fought field of Winchester." (Not so strong this time.) "Now, three hearty cheers for Abe Lin coln and his administration." They wilted when they found they WERE AGAIN COMPLETELY SOLI). Some drew their revolvers, when I cried out, "Train that cannon upon this stand," and stepped from the platform into the crowd. Later in the day, after a great many had been taken to the mayor's office, relieved of their pistols and fined, Hend ricks and other speakers were on the plat form—Church, of Chicago, was speaking —the provost guard were ordered to arrest a man in front of the stand, made an opening through the centre, which was filled by Union men, and as they approached the stand Hendricks & Co. took to flight and brought up in a hollow square of cavalry at the corner of the State house yard. A sergeant of the 39th lowa got the floor, and commenced giving those rebels some wholesome advice, when the Union men, seeing me on the platform, commenced to cheer and call my name.— The sergeant gave way, and I again made a full expose of that treasonable organiza tion. Some of them became furious and again drew revolvers, but they were struck down. General H. B. Carrington, com mandant of the post of Indiana and Mich igan, had taken precaution to have the soldiers ready for any emergency, and batteries were planted to rake every avenue, but when the Terre Haute train went out they FIRED SOME FOUR THOUSAND SHOTS, mostly while passing the Soldiers' Home, wounding a soldier. Gen. Carrington then ordered a field piece, double shotted with grape and canister, placed on the Peru railroad track, just on the turn.— The Democrats, who lined the top of the cars on the train—the inside was also crammed—commenced firing from the top and through the windows, and wounded a little girl. The cavalry dashed foward and ordered the train to stop. Just as they came within full view of the cannon close ahead, at the sight of which the in surgents wilted and commenced throwing their revolvers into Pogue's run, and fifteen hundred of these Democratic friends of Tom Hendricks, and in full sympathy with him, were marched out of the cars, disarmed, and after being paroled prison ers of war were sent on their journey.— We captur9d about 2,000 revolvers from this train alone. oumaL short tiele after thin ter. nt, whil.• at the Union League, Mo.

The I).niocratic party did try to stab the nation's life by force and rc•he!- lion. Respectfully. ALBERT it RPSTO !I E - ---~ -• Tilden and the Credit Mobilier. Evideneo before the Investigating Committee - Tilden ig Conn3el for the Credit Mnbilirr Cnm parly—lie Advises the Iminz ••f A I•litienal Bonds to Cheat the Stock enm plirity in the Swindle C;earlf "Reform" Profeesion? a Sham. The Democratic platform lir:+ ti.e. fir...w ing plank : "Reform is necessary to put a rtop to , ho pr. - fligate waste of public lands and their liver+ins from actual settlers by the party in power, whiels hae squandered two hundred millings acre, epos railroads alone, and out of more than thrill that aggregate has dispoeed of lees rhan asixth directly to tillers of the soil." On this platform Mr. Tilden ha 4 been placed as a reformer. The people Inve not yet forgotten the famous Credit M►- bilier transactions. This was a company within a company. In other words, a company was formed composed of a nnrnber of the leading stockholders of the Piaci& railroad to take contracts for building Ohl road, and divide the profits among them selves. On the 16th of August, 1A67. a con tract was executed between the l'ni , u3 Pacific Railroad Company and Oakes AmeA. by which Mr. Ames contracted to build six hundred and sixty seven miles of the Union I'acific road at prices ranging from $12.000 to $96,000 per mile, amountin:r in the aggregate to 17.000.000 The profits on this contract were to he divided among the stockholders of the Credit Mobilier Company. As the profits were large, the Kock of this company, although never in the mar ket, was worth three or four times its pir value. here was a great power to control Con gressional influence. Members of Con7reqs could not be purchased by the stock of the railroad, but the stock of a company en gaged in building it was regarded as per fectly legitimate. although in effect it amounted to about the same thing If they had held stock in the road of course they would have been interested in keep ing off unfriendly legislation, for such le : .- islation would have caused the stork to depreciate. fielding stock in a company that depended for its profits on the value of the stock of the railroad with which it held contracts, it would require no argu ment to prove that the parties interested in the profits of the Credit Whiner Com pany would do all within their power, to protect either by legislation or otherwise, the stock of the Union Pacific road . The stock of the Credit Mobilier was therefore placed, in the language of Oakes Ames. "where it could do the most gno4l" —among some of the leading men of both parties in Congress. The scheme was a shrewd one. had enough of the legitimate about it to keep it within the limits of the law, but its practical results were to put the money derived from the sale of bonds and land furnished by the United States Govern ment into the pockets, not of Fona fide contractors who had earned the money, but in the pockets of speculators forming a ring, who had, as stockholders of the railroad, fixed the prices out of which they were to make, as members of this contract ing ring, enormous profits. In other words it may be said that the Credit Mobilier Company fixed its own contract prices, for the influential men composing it were like wise the leading spirits in the road itself. When the operations of the Credit Mo bilier Company came to light through the investigation of the 12d Congress the company way condemned at the bar of public opinion, and, though it was gen erally conceded that Oakes Ames was honest in his belief that the railroad could not have been built in any other way, the means employed were reearded as little short of a swindle on the United States Government. - - In this light the following extract from the committee's report (page 291) will be interesting reading. It shows that Samuel J. Tilden, the Democratic reformer. who now stands upon an anti-railroad grant platform, was the adviser of Oakes Armes in the matter of issuing stock of the l're !t Mobilier Company, out of which ::relv public scandal that buried, in public es timation, leading men of both parties : By Mr. Hoar : Why, instead o f issuing capital st k I - T. • !‘... :••-rt cr,r •.insp;lr , Ar rwi , t , rair • • ~..160 . • 11/P.reqp I .
