learn that if .I.fr. Dan - son Coleman,
formerly a Senator from Lebanon County,
'should be elected to the office of iitare
Treasurer,' he will serve. - We are, glad
of this, for the reason, that we know him
to be an honeSt man. ' Enough has been
seen within the last feir years, to con
vince every one that the control of our
State Treasury has been sought only for
dishonest purposes, and the most willing
to serve corrupt rings, politicians and ed
itors has been preferred. It is time there
was a change. A new, a good and com
petent man is now coffered, and why
should he not be elected in preference to
Mackey or Irwin, who have both shown
I hemselves unworthy of a public trust.—
Can any man furnish a good and substan
tial reason, unless it be for the purpose of
plunder ? We would respectfully say to
the members of our Legislature, have a
care, gentleman, the people are watching
you, and if you should not support Cole
man, but join in a ring and elect Irwin or
Mackey, the conclusion will be irresisti
lde, that corruption is at the bottom.
Some of our corruptionists object to
Ir.
Coleman, because General Cameron
advocates his election. It is a silly pre
tence to oppose a worthy man, merely be
cause another farms it.
.GeMi;,Cameron
desires'the election of Mr. Coleman, be
cause he knows him from long acquain
t ante, to be honest and worthy,and above
the temptation to steal, and because he,
like many others is heartily sick of, and
disgusted with Mackey and Irwin who.
are notoriously corrupt and unworthy.—
. 'What says the Express'
Philadelphia Police
The municipal Government, and the
control of the Police, force, of Philadel
phia are in the hands:of the democracy ;
lmt as to the efficiency of that police force,
citizens and journals of both political per
suasions, give the strongest testimony.—
We extract the following from the Phil
adelphia City Rem, as - a most deserved
tribute to Gen. Mulholland, an old and
dear-personal friend of ours, who is now
the able and. efficient Chief of Police.—
That paper says :
Within a week or two the Chief has
been sharply assailed.
We don't know Gen. Mulholland ; but
we suspect he has not been fairl3y treated,
all things considered.
He labors with zeal, and he takes the
pride:of a gentleman and an officer in the
respectability and efficiency of his Police.
Gen. Mulholland is net an every day
man.. He is gentle l ie is educated—he
posseses taste and tone—he is ;well-bred—
and he has old-fashioned notions of honor
and patriotism which should endear him
to bur people.
The office of Chief of Police is one of
man} responsibilities and difficulties !
We suspect Mulholland is a Democrat
—but, his , political faith ought not to
make him less mindful of his public 0h
„......1ig,at.i.0p5..„,,5„:pme of the best people in the
The - maiiwho was willing to die for his

rowi Of detraction.
In private, we hear Gen Mulholland
,highly praised for courage, address, jus
t ice, executive ability.
Fair play, is our motto.
HITERY TO THE FirNELlAL.—BUrying
"delid issues" hasbecome a favorite oc
cupation for aspirants to the democratic
nomination for the Presidency. Eigh
teen months ago John Quincy Adams
pronounced them hopelessly defunct,
about a year since Senator Hendricks de
livered au oration over' their grave in
New Orleans. And now Gov. Hoffman
consigns them tone same abode. Is it
not high time Gov. English, Mr. Pendle=
ton, Gen. Hancock. Mr. Vallandigham,
and the rest appeared at the funeral ?
Stand not upon the order of your coming,
gentlemen, but come all at once, for,
"first come, first served." Let not even
Copperheads despair of being accepted as
pall-bearers, but encouraged by the sooth

"And while the lamp holds out to burn,
Tne vilest sinner may return."

PENALTY FOR OPENING LETTERS Al -
DRESSED TO ANOTITER.—Many people
s3eing letters advertised are in the habit
of thinking there must be a mistake in
the address and call for and open letters
belonging to other parties. There are
also letters that occasionally, through
haste or mistake, get into the wrong boxes
and are opened by parties to whom they
do not belong. It would be as well to let
our readers know that the penalty for any
person opening a letter not addressed to
'himself varies from a fine not exceeding
$5OO to imprisonment for ten years (See.
300, laws 1360.)' One half the pecuniary
shall be for the use of the informer (Sec.
318, laws 1866:) The complaint should
be made before a United States Judge or
Commissioner, if possible ; if not possi
ble, then before a justice of the peace
(Sec. 485, Beg. MO). And when a crim
inal is apprehended the attorney for the
United Stites for the district in which
the offense was committed shall be noti
fied (Sec. 460).
The lleal Estate business in New York
city and Brooklyn is reported as being
very dull, the books of the brokers being
filled with Properties for sale, 'and no
buyers coming forward. It is stated that
many buildings in the upper part of the
cities Mentioned, lie unfinished, in con
sequence of the inability of the owners to
submit to the heavy discounts demanded
upon mortgages by the persons lending
money on real estate security. The pri
ces of three-story, high-stoop dwelling
house in the upper part of. New York
vary from $17,000 to $25,000, while houses
in more fashionable situations rangefrom
$40,000 to 05,000.

Protesting Native Industry
•
The Racine (Wis.)" ;Marna/ shows up
the "pig iron". fallacy of the Chicago
Tribune and kindred sheets :
Now we will-uncover the body of the
monsteewith a few facts and figures. In
the. firstplace, however, we will notice a
point raised by a certain Colonel Wilson,
of Indiana, who is running for Congress
in the district so long represented by Mr.
Julian :
Editor
"That every plowshare that turns the
soil of this broad West shall be taxed for
the benefit of a few manufacturers of iron,
is an absurdity."
Let us examine the gentleman's plow
share in its true light. The tariff on
pig iron, we believe, is seven dollars per
ton. When you come to figure the thing
down to a point you will find that a plow
share, under our Protective-Labor system,
costs from live to ten cents more than it
would. under the Free Tradesystem ;
admit it ten or twenty. The Free-Trade
system, then, would leave in this country
just the ten cents and no more, and the
sum paid for the iron, five or seven dollars
(no matter what the amount), would go
out of the country into the pockets of the
rich monopolists of Europe. Ten cents
for America, and seven dollars for
Europe ! And this will be fair exam
ple of every transaction in every depart
ment of trade in the United States under
the accused Free-Trade system.
Now, under which system would
America be the most likely to prosper,
that which left the country the ten cents
only, or that which left the country the
ten cents with seven dollars\added, even
if the ten cents were a tax upon some in
dividual witout an equivalent '? Free-
Trade men are particularly requested. to
answer this point.
But we have not clone with the plow
share matter. We propose to show that
the purchaser of the plowshare with
the ten cents added for Protection, has a
hundred fold more than an equivalent for
his ten cents under the Protective system.
We will suppose that the iron for the
plowshire was made in Racine—that there
were immense iron works in our city,
(melting up the iron mountains of the
North), employing a thousand men at
Protective wages ; a thousand farmers
near Racine, each purchase a plowshare
made of this iron. costing them ten cents
more than it would to buy it in Eng
land ; the seven dollars and ten cents has
gone into the hands of men who are com
pelled to buy, in return, such things as
the farmers have to sell ; they would
have in their pockets this vast amount
of money that would under the Free-
Trade system be in Europe, to pay the
plowshare buying farmer for his butter,
eggs, etc. Now, we pretend to say that
this iron establishment, with its thousand
men employed at good wages, would add
ten cents to every pound of butter the
farmers in the immediate vicinity of the
works could make, and everything else
he has to sell in proportion. Now, then,
if the farmer required as many plowshares
in the year as he has pounds of bnitter to
sell, the excess on butter offsets the ex
cess put upon the pie wshare in conse
quence of Protection to home industry,
leaving the excess on all other farm pro
ducts to the advantage of the farmer; but
it so happens that a good, careful farmer
only wants a plowshare once in two or
three year, so that the excess on one pound
of butter wipes out the whole thing, for
three years.
Farmers and laborers, don't yon begin
to see the monster ? We have only se
lected ore small point, and one branch of
business; for example, but the argument
is applicable to every part l of the
_United
States, and to . everY branch of business.
Repnblicniaism .Igainst Imperialism
The civil list of Napoleon 111. for eight
een years of imperial power cost the
French people at least $150,000,000.
During the Presidency of' the Republic
out of which Napoleon sprung his empire,
the civil list of France dkl not exceed
$400,000 a year. This for eighteen years
would have amounted to only 57,200,000
against the $150,000,000 comer the great
captive of Prussia. Such is the difference
in the cost of popular and and imperial
government. , So soon as Napoleon be
came emperor be wanted 56,000,000 a year,
and after his family Was increased by a
'wife and son he wanted $7,000,000.
Of course an imperial government must
be splendid, and artificial splendor costs
money, which must be wrung out of the
aching bones of the working classes.
Among the officers of Napoleon's govern
ment were 150 Senators at 600 dollars
each, 10 ministers at $20,000 each, 5 grand
commanders at $2.0,000 each, 0 marshals
at $6,000, 1 Minister of State and one
President of the Senate at 26,000, 1 pre
fect of the Seine at $30,000. 1 grand groom
of the stables at $12,0001 grand huntsman
at 12,000. 5 cardinals at $6,000 each, 1
President of the Council of State at $24,-
000, 1 grand almoner at $50,000, 1 grand
marshal of the palace at $lB,OOO, &c. Be
sides these there were princes and prin
cesses to be liberally provided for, so that
the whole sum, including the 7,000,000 a
year to the E mperor, figures up 5150,000,000
in eighteen years, against $7,200,000 for
the same time had the Republic not been
stricken clown by the illustrious traitor
and perjnror.
Democrats Courting the Revenue Beformerr.
The Democrats propose to invite the
Revenue Reformers to ascend the Dome
of the Capitol and look over the glorious
political prospect that stretches out North,
South, East and West, and following the
example of the great deceiver whom they
serve, promise them "the whole world" if
they will but bow down and worship with
them. They will give them the Speaker
ship, the Clerk of the House, and every
thing else, if they will only forswear Re
publicanism, and prove traitors to the
men who elected them as Republicans.—
Possibly they may find two or three in
Missouri undone or two more in all the
West, that will follow Gratz Brown and
Senator Schurz, but the XLIld Congress
will be true to the Republican party.
The insiduous attempt to disrupt the
great party that saved the Nation, will
meet with its merited reward in the exe
crations of many who were led astray by
delusive professions.
Fre Traders, and "sore headed" se
cret enemies of the Republican party have
done their worst. Open enemies can al
ways be„inet upon fair terms, but false
hearted,dishonest knaves, have it in their
power to paralyze the efforts of those with
whom they profess to act.
The true men of: the party, will counsel
together; and being purified, the tried
men, shoulder to shoulder, will march on
to victory. The country'is not yet sur
rendered into the hands of its enemies..
The _Montrose Democrat pronounces the
result of the late elections "all right."—
As it leases the Republican party with a
majority of about 50 in the lower house
of Congress—the control of that body be
ing, in fact, the great object of both -par
ties in the recent struggle—we cannot
help agreeing with our neighbor that it is
right."—ifontrose Republican._
Suit about a Deccy Buck
party of gentlemen Iron New Lon
don and Groton, about ten days ago,went
out to Great .Neek, Conn., where they
spent most of the forenoon in catching
mackerel, and were quite successful. As
the dinner hour approached they were in
vited to the residence of Erastus Smith,
who lived near by,and whose son was one
of the fishing party, where they (lid jus
tice to a good dinner.
The repast ended, one of the party pro-
Posed that they should go in search of
game, and after game they went, three of
them being, provided with shot guns.
They followed up the Niantic river with
out getting a shot, and finally arrived at
the pond near the turning shop of G. W.
Hills, when one of the party, and he the
one who proposed. to go gunning, espied a
duck near the centre of the pond. Cau
tiously- the sportsmen posted themselves
in different positions, and fired at the
duck, which every time dived beneath the
surface of the water to protect himself.
After various members of the party had
fired some twenty times, one of them dis
covered that it was a decoy duck, made of
wood, and worked by a string which was
attached to it. One or two of the gen
tlemen, disgusted on being sold, took Mr.
Hill's boat, pushed off on the pond and
captured the duck. Returning they did
not fasten the boat securly, and it went
adrift. Mr. Hill then retained a distin
guished lawyer from New London, charg
ing some of the party with the theft of
his cluck, damaging his boat, and inciting
a riot.
One of the gentlemen from New Lon
don, and another from Groton, had pre
pared themselves to defend the case, but
at the last moment, the legal gentlemen
who was to prosecute the case was unable
to attend to it, and the Yew London man
who was prepared for the defense. was
transferred to the prosecution.
The trial commenced shortly after two
o'clock in the afternoon, in the basement
of the Baptist church, there being a large
attendance from the neighborhood. On
the part of the prosecution it was testified
that the duck was of great value, the egg
from which it was hatched having been
brought from a foreign country.
It was also testified that the boat was
somewhat injured, and several of the wit
nesses testified to riotous and desorderly
conduct, such as to frighten a horse in
the neighborhood. The witness for de
fense told a somewhat different story.
The case was argued both for the prose
cution and defence with great ability,and
the justices reserved their decision. It is
expected, whatever may be the decision,
an appeal will be taken to the Superior
Court at Sandy Point, when sonic start
ling developments will be made.
A Strange Plienorn:ncn
Eor several days there have been mys
terious and vague rumors of a most re
markable meteorological phenomenon
out at the Catholic graveyard, on Stone
street, above the three mile creek. It is
asserted by those who say they have seen
it, that for the last five days a gentle
shower has fallen continuously on the
Lemoine family, in which are hurried
Mr. Victor Lemoine and many others of
his family. With a view of getting at
the facts of this most extraordinary af
fair, we had last night an interview with
Mr. Louis B. L emoine, employed at Asa
Holt's, a son or the deceased 'Victor Le
moine, who died in 18.31, who related the
following startling particulars:
Having heard that it was reported that
it hail been raining for several days, on
the enclosBd - grourftlL whitth forms liny
family burying-ground, in the Catho
lic burying-ground, on Stone street. above
the Three-mile creek, .1 drove out there
last evening to satisfy myself, and, to my
intense astonishment, I saw that a column
of rain was coming down without ceasing,
which although hardly powerful enough
to wet the hands or any article : and at
times it, rained quite hard. The volume
of rain fell inside of the enclosure, and
nowhere else, as the weather was and has
been bright and clear all the time during
the five days the rain has been falling on
these graves. There are 13 of my family
buried in the lot of ground upon which it
has been raining. My mother, brother,
and sisters vis ted the spot yesterday and
the da' before to satisfy themselves about
the truth of the matter, and declare that
they too saw the wonderful phenomenon.
It has also bee-. seen by over 200 persons.
I took a friend with me when I visited
the spot. who also saw the rain falling as
described. Mr. John Rosset, the keelier
of the cemetery, told me that the rain had
commenced falling in heavy drops about
five days ago. lam willing to take my
oath as to the truth of this statement.
So incredible did this extraordinary af
fair seem, that those who saw it several
days ago, refrained from stating or assert
ing what they had seen, for fear that not
only their veracity, but their sanity would
be questioned, and it was only until a
number of gentlemen of the first respecta
bility had seen and reported the result of
their personal observations, any credence
was attached to the truth of the matter.
Take it altogether, it is certainly the most
astounding and miraculous atmospheric
wonder that has ever been wiuesssed in
this part of the world,ltnd will, doubt
less, afford abundant food for thought,
research and observation not only among
scientific men, but among all classes.
There are so many who vouch for the
truth of Mr. Lemonie's statement, and
his character for veracity is such, that
there can no longer be any doubt of the
fact that it has been raining for the past
five days on the graves of his kindred.—

In the event of a Ministerial rupture it

on the Loire,aud their left at CB ateaudlt n,
midway between Le Mans and Tours, but
were repulsed in both attempts with great

Advises have been received from Paris
by balloon up to Thursday at noon.—
They represented the situation as favora
ble, and the public morale satisfactory.
TUESDAY, Nov. 20.—in reconnoitering
near Orleans, on Sunday, the 10th Prus
sian Corps encountered the 20th French
Corps of General l'aladine's army, and
an engagement took rlace, to which the
French were driven from their strong po
sition at Ladon Mezieres with serious
loss.
On Sunday a battle occurred between
Villiers and Saleux, near Amiens, in the
Department of Somme, Which lasted all
day. The French maintained their posi

when the crown of Villiers was abandon

of the Prussians.
Forts Tanvres, Montrogue,

After an inharmonious session the

on Wednesday. Granville has . gone to
Windsor again to confer with the Queen.
Annum prevails that Lowe, Bright and
Caldwell are likely to go out of the Cabi

nervously and anxiously awaited. The
rumors of Rassia's willingness to submit
to a congress is believed to be groundless.
WEDNESDAY, NOV. 3U.—The expected
decisive battle near Orleans has not yet
occurred. There have been numerous
skirmishes in the neighborhood. The
main body of D'Aurelles' army still oc
cupies an entrenched position between
Orleans and Arthenay. no Germans will
attempt to encircle him by pressing for
ward one force commanded by Frederick
Charles to Gien,
and another to Blois,
commanded by the Duke of Mecklenburg,
while the centre, directly in front of Ar
thenay, is commanded by Von Der Tama.
The government at Tours has every as
surance that D'Aurelles' strategy is ad
mirable, and tha: ut •tile proper moment
lie will assume, the offensive, pierce Von
Der Tann's line, and press towards Ver

Bismarck says that the unconditional

important.
Ttruns.b.ur, Dec. I.—Letters by balloon
from Paris. private letters from Ver
sailles, and despatches from Berlin, all
concur in representing that the prospects
of the French are extremely gloomy. The
Germans in their late engagements with
the Army of the Loire lost enormously,
still their positions have been maintained.
The efforts of De Paladines to advance to
the relief of Paris have been foiled. The
provisions in Paris are almost exhausted;
scarcely a fortnight's supply remain.
On Monday and Tuesday General Tro
elm made sorties in force, but in all cases
the French were repulsed and driven back
behind their fortifications.
German accounts represent the French
to have been badly beaten near Amiens.
Their army was totally routed, and fled
towards Aeras. Four French gulls were
captured in this engagement.
it now appears that the greater part of
the French Army of the Loire was en
gaged against the Prussian 10th Corps at
Beaune on Monday. From additional
particulars in the reports of commanders
there is no question but that the defeat of
the French was most complete. One
thousand killed were left on the field by
the fleeing French.
Immense quantities of provisions of all
kinds have been collected by the Germans
for the use of the Parisians when they
surrender.
- The question approaches a peaceful so

the conference for its settlement Neill be
held at London.
The Russian government is in receipt

Tm N. Y. Tribune publishes a state
ment• showing that the strength of the
Protectionists in the next Congress has
been really increased in the Western dele
gations, despite the boasts of the Demo
crats and the professed "Revenue Re
formers." Even in Missouri, where they
claim such a sweeping triumph for free
trade, three well known Protectionists
have been chosen. This is as many as
there arc in the present Congress from
that OState, and the only noteworthy
change is that the free trade members
will now count as Democrats instead of
Republicans. , This is the kind of pay the
Revenue Reforming Republicans get for
their coquetting with the Democrats.—
They do not obtain even the shadow of a
triumph for their principles. We believe
that it has been shown that wherever a
plain issue has been made upon the pro
tective principle it has triumphed before
the people. Just protection to American
industry is not inconsistent with the col
lection of a sufficient revenue, and the
experience of fifty yeais has shown tfilit
the country has always flourished most
when a medium standard of duties has
been established by the government.

NITIW,-GINCERIN7.I
This interesting and slippery article of
commerce is rapidly growing in favor
with miners, who being accustom oil to
living under the ground, do no have such
a horror of being laid away in it as their
neighbors above ground. Nitro-gly
cerine is said to be oil. .1 believe it is
—sometimes. I have never examined
any of it. In fact I have a prejudice
against getting too near the stuff. I mu
not afraid, oh, no, but then, I—l—well, I
hate to be scattered around in small
pieces. It is rather difficult to pick one's
self up under such circumstances. l3ar
rels are sometimes injured slightly( ?)by
the oil getting out unexpectedly. but such
occurrences are very rare. When the
barrels are empty this never happens.
This oil is not generally regarded as good
for illuminating purposes, but two or
three individuals once tried some of it,
not knowing what it was. They have
not been seen since. As a few rags and
bits of flesh were found in the vicinity, it
may be reasonably supposed that they
succeeded in lighting it. Most people
prefer kerosene, as, in cases of accident,
it leaves at least some of the body for the
coroner to hold an inquest on.
Nitro-glycerine might be used effec
tively iu the present European war. if
the French would provide themselves
with a few kegs of this article, each keg
to be small enough to go into a cannon,
they would have nothing to do but dis
charge the guns and wait for a surrender
from the Prussians, which would only be
a question of time, or at most, of eternity.
A bairel of it might have been used to
still greater advantage previous to the
war, in the following manner, viz: by
putting Napoleon 111 in it, shutting him
in, and setting it on tire by a slow fuse.
But men as a general thing have read lit
tle testimonials in the newspapers regard
ing the efficacy of nitro-glycerine which
make them rather backward in dabbing
ill it, and rather forward it, getting away
from where it is. It any unfortunate
person should, by mistake should swallow
a dose of it, instead of castor oil, I would
advise that person not to try to cough it
up, as the consequences might be serious.
I would advise any one who thinks of get
ting some of this nil, to buy a pistol at
once and put an end to himself in a de
cent manner. JAKE BUSSELL.
The Colored Troops Fought Nobly
During the parade of the colored troops
in Philadelphia, on Thanksgiving day,
they were assaulted with stones and brick
bats by a gang of rowdies. The com
mand charged bayonetsupon the roughs,
injuring some of them severely, which
led to the arrest of several colored sol
diers by the Democratic police. All of
the white rowdies were permitted to es
cape. Col. Lewis Wagner, in a letter to
the Chief of Police, says:
"I have been found fault with for
marching my command through this lo
cality. In reply I will only say that we
obeyed the orders of Major-General Pro
vost, commanding First Division:Nation
al Guard of Pennsylvania, in our route of
parade, and while Provisional Brigade
will not, so long as I have the honor to
command it, seek any point of difficulty.
it will go to, or through any portion Of
our city, whenever duty requires it to do
so, and that 01)0 or 1000 men with mus
kets in their hands and bayonets in their
scabbards, will not need the protection of
the police. We are able to protect our
selves and will do so,
- - :
This is the right kind of talk; aad will
cure the evil complained of,'quicker than
anything we know of.

f4a.• mho stomhch and the brain are too inti
m nely allied for the ono to sbffer without the
oilier, so tent dyspepsia and depondv;m:y are in
s parable, It, may be added, too. that irritation
of the stomach is almost invariably accompan
ied by irritation of the temper.
Tut . : Invigorating and tranquilizing operation
Of Hostetter's Bitters is most powerfully devel
oped in cases of illdigCSLltl. Tile first 'effect of
his agreeable tonic is comforting and encour
aging. A mild glow prevades the system, the
ell realc oneas•ness lu the region of the stomach
is lessened, anti the nervous restlessness which
characterizes the the disease is abated. This
, improvement is not transient. It is not suc
ceeded by the the return of the old symptoms
wit tell super added for cc, as Is al ways tile case
when numedleated stimulants arc given for the
complaint, Each dose seems to impart a per
accession of healthitil invigora.tion.—
But this not all. The apparlent anti bilious

equally salutary, and In eases of constipation
the ca. hurtle action is Just sufficient to produce
the desired result gradually and without pain.

at Oils season when sudden spells of raw, un

To the Nervous and Debilitated.
Whose sufferings have been protracted from
hidden causes, and whose cases require prompt
reat men tto render existence deshable: If you
are suffering, or have sullered, f•otn involan
tary discharges, what effect does I t produce upon
your general health? Do you feel weak, debili
tated, easily tired? Does a little extra exertion
produce palpitation of the heart? Does your
liver. or urinary organs, or your kidneys, fre
quently get out of order? is your urine some
times thick, milky or pocky, or is it ropy on
settling? Or does a thick scout rise to the top?
Ur Is a sediment at the bottom alter it has stood
awhile? Do you have spells of short breathing
or dYSis.msia? Are your bowels constipated?
DO you have spells of fainting, or rushes of blood
to the head? Is your memory impalied ? Is
your mind constantly dwelling on this subject?
Do you feel dull, listless, limping, tired of com
pany, of. life? Do you wish to be lett alone, to
get away front everybody? Doesany little thing
make you start or jump? Is your sleep broken
or restless? Is the lustre of your eye as bril
liant? The bloom on your cheek its bright? Do
you enjoy yourself in society as well? Du you
pursue your business with thesaine energy? Do
you have as much confidence In yoursell ? Are
your spirits dull and flagging, given to fits of
melancholy? If so, do nut lay ic.to your liver
or dyspepsia. nave you restless nights? Your
back weak, your knees weak, and have but
HUM appetite, and you, attribute this to dys
pepsia or liver-complaint?
Now, render, self-abuse, venereal diseases
badly cured, and sexual excesses, are all capa

organs. The organs of generation. when In

think that those bold, defiant, energetic, perse

those whose generative organs are in perfect
health? You never hear such men complain of

of the heart. They are never afraid they can
not succeed In business; they don't become sad
and discouraged; they are always p dim and
pleasant in the company of ladles, and look you
