Our Little Trip to Paraguay.
Uncle Sam, being disappointed of a j
fight in Utah, is about to ride out a-colonel-
ling to America. A lew years ago
one of his surveying steamers, the W'atcr-
AVitch, was fired into, on the t'arana river, ■
by a Paraguayan fort, the commander of j
which, it appears, had orders not to permit ;
vessels to jtass up the channel on the Par
aguayan side of the ri rer. Afterwards Pres
ident Lclpez refused to ratify a certain treaty
with the United States. Again, a certain .
United Htates Navigation Company, of i
which Mr. Edward A. Hopkins was the ;
representative, got into trouble in Paraguay; !
Mr. Hopkins, who wn also United States i
Consul, offended the government of the ;
country; his exequatur was revoked, and
the Paraguayans asserted that they had a
claim against him for a large amount.
j These little difficulties remain unsettled,
; and the government of the United States
is determined to settle them promptly.
Judge Bowlin is to bo sent out to demand
instant compliance with the terms propos
ed. He ia to he accompanied by the most
formidable expedition ever sent by us to a
foreign country, except that sent to invade
Mexico. There are to be sixteen armed
vessels, nineof them being steamers. They
will carry 188 guns, and a force of about
2800 men, including officers. If President
; Lopez does not at once comply with Com
missioner Bowlin's terms, the fleet is to
bombard Assumption, after the manner of
< i rev town, and thus enforce a compliance.
| Having settled this business, the fleet i-to
call on several other South American gov
ernments, and Commodore Shubrick is to
proceed in a summary manner to settle our
i unsettled accounts with all of them. This
is a pleasant way, certainly, of* employing
the navy and the money of the I'm ted
States' government. — Bulletin.
A Facprife Remedy. —We believe no medi
cine has ever stronger proof of its effi
cacy than the Oxygenated Bitters. In cases
of dyspepsia and genCrj' debility it has Te
ste.red health and cheerfulness when ad other
remedies have failed. S Id by t'has. Kitz,
Druggist, Lewistown.
"The exports of specie from New York
for the week ending October lid, amounted to
£1,124,404 04. This includes $447,407 70, in
American gold, by the Vanderbiit, aud makes
the shipment front Ist of January to date,
$21,062,271 45."
Notwithstanding the great depression in
business, there is a constant drain of money
to Kurope. Can we hope for better times
while this policy continues?
ffiSii„The funeral of Lukas, theOcrinan who
was killed recently at Cincinnati by an Irish
man who was parading in a democratic pro
cession, took place on Wednesday last, and
was attended by an immense concourse of
people. There were a number of banners and
devices in the procession, one of which was a
simple canvas mounted -upon a black pole and
trimmed with mourning, bearing the inscrip
tions, on the obverse—" Karl Lukas, the vic
tim of a democratic political rowdy, born 28tli
August, 1828, died sth October, 1858." On
the reverse—" Murder, have they now added
to robbery."
Papal Phenomenon. —ilov. Mr. M trke, a
Catholic Priest at Orand Rapids, Michigan,
gravely makes the statement below of a ceies
tial phenomenon, which was recently witnes
sed at that place:
" While a Jesuit father, named Yerninger,
was dedicating a cross in the Catholic church
at that place, there appeared od the blue sky,
surrounded by a cluster of while clouds, a
regularly formed, large, white and weil de
signed cross, which disappeared at the mo
ment the missionary cross was sunk into the
ground. The whole crowd present gazed with
amazement at this striking appearance, and
you could hear persons, less credulous, utter
these words, ' This is more than natural!'"
Oxygenated Bitters.
To Dyspeptics. —We would call the attention
of those who are afflicted with this terrible
complaint to a remedy, whiuh, from the mod
est way its merits are set forward, might ! e
overlooked by many. It affords great relief,
and is in almost every instance a certain cure.
AV e allude to the Oxygenated Bitters, sold by
Messrs. Seth W. Fowle & Co., 138 Washing
ton street. This is not heralded by a mass
of unmeaning certificates from persons un
known to the publie, but a few well chosen
testimonials from members of Congress, and
some of our first merchants and city officers
who have been cured by its use, and whose
names are familiar to every Bostonian. are a
sure evidence of its efficacy. For dyspepsia,
debility, and weakness, it is a most excellent
medicine. It may be had at any of the apoth
ecary stores. — Huston Daily Et. Traveller.

has been those abominable wigs. By a recent discovery
of Professor Wood these articles are being fast dispensed

cause they have been so often impost d upon by Ilair'

nestly make the request that they will try once again,
for in Wood's Restorative there is no each thing as fail.
We know of a lady who was bald, who used the article
a short time, arid her herd is now co7erd completely
with the tiniest and most beautiful curls imaginable. We
know of numerous cases where hair was rapidly falling
out, which it restored in greater perfection than it ever
had been before. It is also without doubt one of the best
articles for keeping the hair in good condition, making i:
soft and glossy, removing dandruff, and lias proved itself
the greaie-t enemt to all the tils that h.iir is In ir to. It
is the duty of every one to improve their personal appear
