A DESPATCu was received here on
Thursday, announcing the death of, ex :
President, Johnion,, ..his..residence, in
Greenville, Tennessee. It had no foun

is very sick. It is understood that lie is
suffering from a paralytic stroke, and is

THE war in Cuba continues with line
bating fierceness. Engagements between
the hostile forces are now of almost daily
occurrence, and there is hardly one among
these in ,T7llich the Spaniards do not claim

standing these numerous victories, and
notwithstanding the frequent arrival of
fresh troops from, Spain, no progress—
even according to Spanish accounts—is
made in the suppression of the revolu

TuE poor Georgians have taken another
turn at the Constitutional Amendment
concerning suffrage. This time the Senate
tried to ratify it, but failed by the casting
vote of the presiding officer. Meantime,
the legislators who ran away from the
House to delay its action are involved in
a sore strait. Gov. Bullock orders that
the Treasurer pay no money on their war
rants for salaries till they come back and
attend to their business. What a pity
that bright idea had not struck them out
in Indiana, a few weeks ago I Between
their hatred of niggers and their need of
money, the Democrats would have had a
hard. time, but we know which influence
would have carried the day.
Washburn° Away, the Rings will
Play.
For one reason we regret Mr. Wash
burne's appointment as Minister to France.
We suppose that the state of his health
renders his honorable exile necessary, but
shall we not sadly miss our Treasury watch
dog ? Mr. Washburne is not regarded
as of the very highest calibre as far as
ability is concerned, but that, as guardian
of the Treasury, against. the bold attacks
and insiduous wiles of the " rings," he
has been universally regarded as the right
man in the right place, and has won a
name that.any representative of the peo
ple ought to be proud of. Scarcely any
one dtinbts the sincerity of his attempts
to.keep
,the' robber's out of the Treasury,
and - nobody doubts - their success. Mr.
Washburne. has been worth many millions
to his country; and that is a more worthy
title to .immortality than that. of many a
man whose name fills a greater place in
the annals of the time.
The Collectorship of the Port of
Philadelphia.
The question of Collectorship or the
Port of Philadelphia, says the Bulletin has
been solved by the nomination of Hon.
Henry D. Moore, a selection from among
the several good names presented to the
President which will be highly satisfacto
ry to the entire community. A - brief
sketch of the new Collector will interest
our readers.
Henry D. Moore is a native of Goshen,
Orange county, New York, where be was
born in 1817. He received his education
in one of Abe public schools in New York
city, and began his business life, at the
age of sixteen, as a tailor. While yet
quite a young man; he removed to Phila
delphia and, abandoning his trade, enter
ed the well known firm of Eckstein br. Co.,
marble dealers, as the partner and the
son-in-law _of the senior of the house.
Here Mr. Moore soon attracted the notice
of the people of his neighborhood, by his
earnest efforts in the Taylor campaign of
1848, and was taken np by the Whig
party in the old Third Cogressional Dis
trict as its representative, and was elected
b a handsome majority of about
750.. In 1850, Mr. Moore was renomina
ted, and again elected, his majority, in a
very close and doubtful election, being
26. Mr. Moore, maintained a high posi
tion in Congress during his two terms of
service and then resumed his duties as a
private citizen, until the winter of 1860-
61, when be was most, fortunately elected
Treasurer of the State of Pennsylvania.
He atnriv2 that office just at the out
law& of the Rebellion, and proved a most
invalstabh.- officer to this commonwealth.
His high ChusWer for personal and rues
estrfile integrity, Lis untiring ester... 7 and
14 - enthusiastic yatriotisni were all thrown
freely into the scale of the Union, and to
his personal influence and exertious, the
success of the Three Million War Lean of
1861 was chiefly due. Mr. Moore was
re-el oe..itecl State Treasurer in 1862, and
again in 1883; and dtuilogliis three terms
of service won the 'highest commendations
of all 'who were brought in contact with
him, officially, by the suavity of his man
ners, and the promptness and accuracy of
all business transactions. ,
We congratulate tliebusineas cocain u el.
ty on President Grant's - selection of Henry
D. Moore as Collector of the' Port. It is
instituting no invidious comparison to ea) ,
that no one of his competitors could have
more fully Met all the demands of the sit
- •
nation, or given more general satisfaction.
Mr. Collector-Moore, while he his been
actively engaged in polities , for the last
- twenty years, has mantained the honors.
ble position of an upright and' estimable
citizen. He has illustrated the possibility
of making American' politics respectable,.
..in a very tiMiketl'degie - e7; -- ind he will ad
minister theaffairs of the' Custom House ,
witli a careful regard-for the promotion of
the business,: interests.Of

ErtAxw. ILtanr, the young man who
murdered.his step-father, J. 11. Rice, near
Rome, Ohio, confesses the crime, and says
that he dug his step-father's grave a iveek
before he killed him.
Female Applicants.
The President's appointment of three
women as Postmistresses-- (the word is
'abominable, and wouldn't Fos/officers be
better ?)—bas attracted to Washington a
rush of female office-seekers. Some of
them are in pursuit of places as Internal
Revenue officers, others as Custom House
functionaries, and others in other branches
of the service. It is .to be hoped the of
fice-hunting mania will not spread among
the women.

Bad for Bigamists.
The Illinois Legislature has passed a
UM which provides that any woman mar
rying a man without a knowledge of the
facts, any Pan having a wife already liv
ing, shall have the same claims for alimo
ny and maintenance upon such bigamist
as she would have if her marriage was
legal and she had been duly divorced
from him according to law. A law in
every way just, and which should have a
good effect.
AT last we see daylight ahead ! Con
gress stamps out the greenback heresy;
Grant hastens to make this the first law to
receive Isis signature; and now Secretary
Boutin]] announces that he has plenty of
money, that the receipts from imports are
increasing, and that' he means to use at
least a part of his large surplus in buying
isp and canceling Government bonds. A
better word has not been spoken for the
Public Credit since Grant's Inaugural.
For months and years we have been aim
lessly paying interest on from sixty to a
hundred millions of debt that might as
easily as not Lave been bought up at the
current rates, and the gold wherewith to
do it lay all the while idle in the vaults of
the Treasury. The quadruple folly of
this procedure cost us the interest on debt
that might have bees stopped, the interest
on money kept idle that we wasted, the
profit we might have made by buying in
our bonds at their current selling rates,
and the immense impetus we might have
given the Public Credit by showing that
the bonds were actually getting scarcer,
and that we were making haste to reduce
the volume of our debt. Now at least we
have a Secretary who comprehends that
Government business, just like that of
individuals,should be managed to the best
advantage on business principles.—New
York Tribune.
Two Meals i Day.
If any man or woman of forty-five or
over, not engaged in hard natural labor,
especially the studious, sedentary and in
door livers, would take but two meals a
day for one month, the second not being
later than three in the afternoon, and ab
solutely nothing afterwards,except it might
be in some cases an orange or lemon, or
cup of warns drink, such as tea, broma,
sugar-water, or ice cream, there would be
such a change for the better in the way of
sound sleep, a feeling on waking of having
rested, an appetite for breaksfast, a bouy
anec of disposition during the day, - wiiii
geniality
of temper and manner that few,
except the animal and the glutton, would
be willing to go back to the flesh pots of
Egypt
"Ben Wade," as he is frequently call
ed, one of the political lions of the west,
has taken but two meals a day for twenty
years, and if all sedentary persons, those
who, are in-doors a greater 'part of their
time, would after the age of forty-five ob
serve the same inflexible rule, there can
be no doubt, other things being equal,
that long years of happy exemption from
the ordinary ills of life would be the result.
The reason is that the stomach would
have time to rest, for recuperation, and
would thus be able to perform its part
more thoroughly, making purer blood,
giving better sleep and securing good ap
petite for breakfast. Let any man try it
for ten days, taking the second meal seven
hours after the first, and abandon the
practice if be can.—liall's Journal of
Ilealth.
Senator Brown'oar.
3 Washington correspondent gives the
scene when Parson Brovnlow, of Tennes
see, took the oath of Senator, as follows:
The Parson sat in a soft cushioned chair
at the left of the chamber, and immedi
ately under one wing of the ladies gallery.
Being unable to rise and walk over to the
President's desk, Mr. Colfax said the Sen
ator could go through the ceremony where
be sat. The announcement drew all eyes
in the direction of the Parson, who cer
tainly presented the most extraordinary
picture of physical debility that was ever
before witnessed by any legislative assem
bly. Thad. Stevens might have been con
sidered, when brought into the Senate
Chamber on men's shoulders, to take his
place among the managers of the memor
able days of the impeachment trial, the
best illustration up to that time presented
of the triumph of intellectual will over a
shattered and prostrated bodily organism,
but Brownlow's appearance showed even
greater indications of physical wreck and
ruin, an-I still the latter lackS nothing of
the same uoconquerable mental fire and
energy that marked to his last moments
the character of the Great Commoner.
Brownlow lay back iu his chair, his head
bent down, his face shriveled, ghastly and
of unearthly hue, his hands clasped in
bony vice-like grasp, and his whole ap
pearance indicative of great phySieal de
pression. As Mr. Culfac read the oath,
the poor old Parson raised his feeble arm,
which shobt With'paliy and dropped every

at-Ares Bassett went over and sustained
his arm through the•reniaiuder of the cer

SPECIAL NOTICE.
SCHESCIVS PULNONIC SYRUP
Seaweed Tonic and Mandrake Pills, will cure Con
sumption, Liver Complaint and Dyspepsia, if taken
according to directions. They ate all three to be
taken at the same time. They cleanse the stomach.
relax the liver, and put it to work; then the appetite
becomes good; the food digests and makes good
Ifflirod; the patient begins to grow in flesh ; the dis
eased matter ripens in the lungs, and the patient
outgrows the disease and gets well. This is the
only way to cure consumption.
To these three medicines Dr. J. 11. Schenck, of
Philadelphia, owes his unrivalled success in the
treatment of pulmonary consumption. The Pul
monic Syrupripens the morbid matter in the lanes,
nature throws it elf by an easy . expectoration, for
when the phlegm or matter is ripe, a slight cough
will throw it oil, and dm patient has rest and the
lungs begin to heal.
To do this, the Seaweed Tonic and Mandrake Pills
must be freely used to cleanse the stomach and liver,
so that the Pulmonic Syrup and the food will make
good blood.
Schenck's Mandrake Pills act upon the liver, re
moving all obstructions. relax the ducts of the gall
bladder, Cho bile starts freely, and the liver is soon
relieved ; the stools will show what the Pills eon do;
nothing has ever been invented except calomel (a
deadly poison which is very dangerous to use ex
cept well great care), that a all unlock a gall-bladder
and start Cho secretions of the liver like Schenck's
Mandrake Pill,
Liver Complaint is one of the most prominent
CaIIIFPS or Consumption.
Sehenek's Seaweed Tonie is a gentle stitnid ant
and alterative, and the alkali to the Sent cod, Nth fell
this preser . ption is made el, assists the stomach to
throw out the gastric juice, to dissolve the food with
the Pulmonic Syrup, and it is made into good blood
without fermentation or souring in the storoach.
The great reason why physicians do not care con
sumption is, they by to do too much : they give
medicine to stop the cough, to stop chills, to stop
night sweats, hectic fever, and by so doing they de.-
range the whole digestive powers, locking up the se
cretions. and eventually the patient sinks and dies.
Dr. Schenck, in his treatment. does not try to stop
a cough, night sweats, chills or fever. Remove tin,
cause, and they will all atop of their min accord. No
one can bo cured of Consumption, Liver Complaint,
Dyspepsia, Catarrh, Canker, Ulcerated Throat, un
less- the liver and stomach aro made healthy.
If a person nas consumption. of course the lungs
are in seine nay diseased,either tubercles, abscesses,
bronchial irritation, pleura adhesion, or the lungs
are a mass of inflammation and fast decaying. In
such cases what must be done? it is not only the
lungs that arc ai lusting, but it is the whole body. The
stomaell'and liver have lost their potter to make
blood out of food. Now the only chance is to take
Schencles three medicines, which will bring up a
tone to the stomach, the pa tient will begin to want
food, it will digest easily and make good blood; then
the patient begins to gain in flesh, and as soon no
the body begins to grow,the lungs commence to heat
up, and the patient gets fleshy and bell. This is the
only tray to cure consumption.
When there is no lung disease, and only Liver
Complaint and Dyspepsia, Schenek's Seaweed Tonic
and Mandrake Pills are sufficient without the Pul
monic Syrup. Take the Mandrake Pills freely in all
bilious complaints, as they are perfectly harmless.
Dr. Schenck, who has enjoyed uninterrupted health
for many years past, and note weighs 223 pounds,
was wasted away to a mere skeleton, in the very last
stage of Pulmonary Consumption, his physicians
having pronounced his case hopeless and abandoned
him to his fate. He was cured by the aforesaid
medicines, and since his recovery many thousands
similarly afflicted have used Dr. Schenek's prepara
tions with the same remarkable success. Full di
rections accompanying each, make It not absolutely
necessary to personally see Dr. Schenck, unless the
pstients wish their lungs examined, and for this
purpose he is professionally at his principal office,
Philadelphia, every Saturday, where all letters for
advice must be addressed. ide is also professionally
at No. 32 Bond Street, New York, every other Tues

GENrst---This is to certify that I have found "Al

world for diseased lungs. I have used it in my fam
ily for breaking up a troublesome cough with the
happiest effect. I recommended it to a young lady
who had a harta.stng cough. and was threatened
with Consumption, and it cured her in a few days.
I would recommend it to all those predisposed to
Consumption. Respectfully yours,

[From the Ilona .31011 e ili y.l
Some years since, while residing in the city of
Providence, we heard much said in praise of I' erry
Davis's " Pain Killer." We listened Incredulously
to these tesitmonials. Well, health failing, as n last
resort, the Doctors sent us to Minnesota. The win
ter was Intensely cold, and a terrible form of Neural
gin prevailed among the settlers, and we fell into the
grasp of the disease, and day and night, for weeks,
endured untold agony. Many remedies were tried,
without avail. One day, however, a stalwart fron
tiersman entered the room, bearing in his hand a
vial partly filled milli n reddish liquid.
It was some of the Pain Killer. Ile had bought it
in California three years before, and hod kept it with
Miserly care until then. Applying it externally and
internally gave immediate relief. Since then, we
have recommended it successfully in cases that
battled the best medical skill; turd, when wo see
persons reject this remedy, we recall our own ex
perience, and think that the time may come when
pain, incurable by other agents, may teach them the
value - of this great discovery. [marl-Imdkw

TIIE FACTS AS THEY ARE:
We began In DM to make Improve
ments in the style-and make of
Ready-Made Clothing, and continued
to do so, introducing new styles and
ideas every year, so that the entire char
acter of the tawiness is now vastly
better and totally different from the
systems of older horses.
Our first idea is to learn exactly
WRAP THE CUSTOMERS WANT,
and Instead of persuading him to buy
what may be most conveniently at
hand, wo take the utmost pains to inset
NIS wishes.
The blinding we occupy is the MOST
CONVENIEN 1' SIZE, LARGEST AND
BEST ADAITED for:our business of
any in Philadelphia
Customers can see what they are
buying, our Establishment being on
the corner of three large streets, 'Mar
(bet, Sixth and Minor streets,) abun
dant light is afforded from all direc ;
Hons. A light store is far better for
customers than a dells one.
Merchants know that our sales are
larger than those of any other house
in Philadelphia, in our line: hence we
have to buy larger quantities of goods,
and so get them at lower prices, es
pecially as we buy altogether for cask.
Buying cheapest, we can sell cheap

[lt is an undisputed fact that this
Department, (a large Hall on outr
second float' fronds); on Minor street,)
1 has nothing in Philadelphia, to olard
it. We have here concentrated the
best skill and workmanship, and those
who prefer Clothing made to order
really have advantages they do not re•
ecire elsewhere.
DEDUCTIONS.
Ou
men I •
From all of the above we deduce
this one fact, that Oak Hall has ALL the
advantages of any other Clothing Es
tnblts'•unents in the city, and in addi
tion these,
lst—A firm composed of young men of the present
generation, fully in sympathy with the tastes
of the day.
2,1---An insight to the wants of the people and an en
terprise to meet these wants, which in seven
years has placed Oak Hall in a position not al
ways attained in experience of twenty-five
Dell? r
Aix .
years.
3d.—A Building better located, better lighted, better
adapted and newer in all its appointments.
B.ll.—Workmen, especially Cutters, who are not
only from among the best and most experi
enced, but are artists in their professions and
couple with good work a stylishness, in which
Philadelphia tailoring has been particularly
deficient.
It is the liberal patronage with which we have
been favored that has enabled tvi to otter the un
paralleled advantages, and this patronage continued
and extended will Multiply advantages, which we
divide between stir customers and ourselves.

'S CATHARTIC PILLS !
A YER
EOM, ALL Ti' PURPOSES OF A LAXATIVE
MEDICINE.
Perhaps no one medicine Is so universally re
quired by everybody as a cathartic, nor was ever
any before so universally adopted into use, in
every country az.tl among all classes, as this
mild but Mild en t purgative PILL. The obvious
I easons for it is, that it is a more reliable and Mr
more enectual remedy than any other. Those
who have tried it, know that it cured them;
those who have not, know that it cures their
neighbors and friends, and till know that, what,
IL does once it does always—that it never tails
through any fault or neglect of its composition.
We have thousands upon thousands of certifi
cates of their remarkable cures of the following
complaints, but such cures are known in every
neighborhood, and we need not publish them.
Adapted to all ages and conditions in all cli
mates; containing neither calomel or any de
leterious drug, they may be taken with safety
by anybody. Their sugar coating preserves
theta ever fresh and makes them pleasant to
take, while being purely vegetable no harm can
arise from their use in any quantity.
They operate by their powerful influence on
the internal viscera to purify the blood and
stimulate it into healthy action—remove the ob
structions of the stomach, bowels, liver, and
other organs of the body, restoring their irregu
lar action to health, and by correcting, where
ever they exist, such derangements as are the
first origin of disease.
Minute directions are given in the wrapper on
the box, for the following complaints, which
these PILLS rapidly cure.
For DYSPEPSIAO ON. LISTLESSN37-',S,
LANGUOR and: LOSS OF APPETITE, they should
be taken moderately to stimulate the stomach
and restore its healthy tone and action.
For L1V1.212 Conr.r.Aryrr and its various symp
toms, Ittni.louS lIEADACIIE, SICK HEADACAE,
JAUNDICE Or GREEN SICKNESS, BILIOUS COLIC
and BILIOUS FEVERS, they should be judiziously
taken for each case. to correct the diseased ac
tion or remove the obstructions which cause it.
For DYSENTERY or DIARRECEA, but one mild
dose is generally required.
FOr RHEUMATISM, GOUT, GRAVEL, PALPITA
TION OF THE HEART, PAIN IN TILE SIDE, BACK
and LOINS they should be continuously taken,
as required, to change the diseased action of the
system. ith such change those complaints
disappear.
For Duorsr and DROPSICAL SWELLINGS, they
should be taken in large and frequent doses to
produce the effect of a dnistic purge.
For SUPPRESSION ft large (lose should be taken
as it produces the desired effect by sympathy.
As a DINNER PILL, Lake one or two Pitts to
promote digestion and relieve the stomach.
An occasional dose stimulates the stomach
and bowels into healthy action, restores the ap
petite, and Invorates the system. Hence It is
often advantageous where no serious derange
ment exists. One who feels tolerably well,
often finds that a dose of these PILLS makes
him feel decidedly better, from their cleansing
and renovating ellect on the digestive apparatus.

that this contract is in all re,peets valid and of
legal obligation.
Such securities are generally Valuable in pro
portion to the length of time they have to run.
The longest sit , : per cent. gold interest bonds of
the U.S. (the Si't.) will be due in 12 years, and
they are worth 112. if they bad tltit ty years to
run, they would stand at not less than .125. A
perfectly safe First Mortgage Bond like the
Union Pacific should approach this rate The
demand fur European inve.tmeut is already
considerable, told on the completion of the
work will doubtless carry the price to a large
premium.
SECURITY OF TILE BONDS.
It needs no argumLt to show that a First
Mortgage of $20,500 per mile upon what for a
long time must be the only railroad connecting
the Atlantic and Pacific States is perfectly se
cure. The entire amount of the mortgage will
be about S.:.10,000,000, and the interest $1,M,000 per
annum in gold, The present currency cost of
this interest is less than $2,400,000 per annum,
while the gross earnings fur the year ISIS, from
way business only, on an average of less than
700 miles of road in operation, Were more than
FIVE MILLION DOLLARS.
The details of which are as follows:
From Passengers 4 1,024,00:L9;
Freight 2,010,223.10

This large amount Is only an Indication of the
Immense truffle that must go over the through
line in a few months, when the great tide of
Pacitie coast travel and trade will begin. It is
estimated that this business must make the
earnings of the road front Fifteen to Twenty
Millions a Year.
