Dr. Hadway' a Pills have granted me a new lease
of life. For fifteen years I have suffered with
Dyspepsia, Costiveness.lndigestion. I have taken
a cart-load of pills of different mikes. but the re
lief afforded by their operation was at Ate cost of
severe suffering from Piles. If I stopped tskiug
these pills one 'week, the old difficulty would
trouble me. lat last struck a vein of gold, in Rad.
way' s Pills—the - first dose acted so differently from
all other pills, that I hoped for a cure—six boxes
• made anew maa, of me; I am completely cured.
No straining,, no piles, no weakness followed their
nse. I gained strength with their use. I have not
taken any physic for over a year, and am as ragged,
strong and hearty as a bear.

TICE BLACK FLAG
The authentic details of the massacre at
it Pillow ;which are now reaching us,and
the few words by telegraph from Plymelilth,
North Carolina, which indicate that the
banks of Albemarle Sound have been made
the scene of similar atrocities, are absolutely
sickening. In both cases a small forte of
Union soldiers made a gallant resistance
until they were completely overcome by su
perior numbers, and when at last they threw
down their arms and surrendered, the pris-
oners, particularly those who had dark
-skins, were murdered in cold blood. It was
not the act of infuriated men in the moment
of a hotly contested victory, but a deliber
ate deed of butchery which was the work of
hours, and which took time in its deliberate
horrible cruelty to form its victims into lines,
strip thenrof their, money and valuables,and
then massacre them in pure savagery. This
is not war, it is simply murder, and the pi
rate who compels his prisoner to walk the
plank" is just as much a naval hero as such
fiends incarnate are soldiers. •
If such horrid brutalities are to pass un
punished, we might as well 'give up the con
test, and acknowledge that the fierce enemy
has subdued us as the wolf subdues his vic
tim. The North rendered itself almost an
object of contempt before the war, by the
manner in which it suffered the Southerner
to bring the manners of the plantation into
the councils of the nation, and into the
arena of political strife, and unless it sternly
meets the bloody brigandage of the slave=
owner, who beats down'all opposition, whe
ther political or warlike, without regard
either to the rights of man or the usages of
civilized warfare, the cause of the Union
and liberty will be disgraced 'and ruined.
The President promised in his Baltimore
speech that when a clearly authenticated
case of the murder of prisoners was brOught
to the notice of' the Government, " retribu
tion" should follow. Such evidence has
been furnished, and the retribution should
be stern and swift ; but were full retribu
tion'tobe dealt now as a punishment of all the
acts of the slave-power for the last thirty
years, the States in rebellion would share
the fate of the Cities of the Plain, and the
armed outlaws be swept from the earth as
were the Egyptian and his host. Let the
Government deal such retribution as the
laws of human warfare justlfy, and leave
the rest to a just God.
THE PUBLIC SQUARES.
We have been requested to call attention
to the manner in-which the public squares,
and especially Rittenhouse Square, are mis
managed. During all this fine weather of
the early Spring the square is .kept her
metically sealed, to avoid any trifling incon
venience to the superintendent as he lei
surely attends to the work of putting things
into order which never ought to be allowed
to get out of order.
But when all this is done the matter is
little better. Some of the gates will be
opened and , others kept locked, so that a
person wiaO passes through the neighbor
hood and thinks he would like to get a little
shade and look at the grass, ten to one liuds
the gate of his intended exit locked, and
goes chasing round the square, with great
loss of time and temper,to get out. .ThlgTs
not an occasional, but akontinual trouble,
and the gates are managed so capriciously
that few persons will now enter Rittenhouse
Square ex&pt those who go for express
purpose.; .
There Is no reason whatever that all the
squares should not be kept open allyinter,
as Independence Square is, or ti.t leait from
the first of March till the first of December.
The superintendents are well paid, and can
afford to give their whole time to the squares,
instead of making a sinecure of their posi
tions for four or five months in the year.
We trust this matter will begooked to.
•
HIGH PRICES.
The enormous increase-in the price of ar
ticles and commodities of every description,
from the needless . and costly luxuries to the
indispensable necessaries - of life,is naturally
attracting the attention of our. people.• The
former can And should be dispensed with,but
those which are required for the daily
consumption must be procured, unfortu
nately, regardless of the rates demanded.
The inconvenience and suffering which now
pervade almost every home, and which.
threaten to make gaunt spectres of the in
mates, have been brought about by many
causes, the principal of which have been
gold speculations, Copperhead influence and
the extravagance of the people. If the
wholesale or retail merchant is asked, why
his commodities advance so inordinately, he
refers you to the price of gold, although in
many instances the rate of coin or bullion
has actually had no effect whatever upon
the article. Still- there is no denying the
fact that the prices of all commodities are
influenced more or less by the gold quota
tions, and so long as selfish and unprinci
pled gamblers adopt it as a means by which
they may increase the contents of their
purses, just so ling may we anticipate a
continuance of the present difficulties,in se
curing a sufficient amount of comestibles to
keep hunger from the mortal frame. The"
efforts of the Administration, the proceed
ings of Congress, mid the threats of State
Legislatures have thus far failed to thwart
the infamous plans' and projects of the
speculators, and we can only look forward
with anxiety to the hour to arrive,when our
gallant armies, North, South and West,
shall march forward in-battle array, to vic
tories more . brilliant than any which have
yet been recorded upon the pages of Ameri
can history, with the hope that those suc
cesses may have their influence upon the
public currency.
In the same category with these gamblers
may be placed the Copperhead fraternity,
residents of the North who disgrace them
selves—if that is poSsible—and their fellow
countrymen, by their acts andwords, giving
encouragement to the traitors at the South,
to prosecute their designs against the Go
vernment. The leading Southern journals
but express the hopes and expectations of
the rulers - and people of rebeldom, when
they asser , almost dell" - , that in 'the inva
sion hich they expect to make into the
loyal ates, they are to be assisted and re
inforced by the Copperheads and Peace men
of the Commonwealths through which they
march. Many of these vile traitors are in
cluded among the gold speculators, while
others of their number, who are too timid
to engage in such schemes, give material aid
by their darpings and strictures of the Ad
minist.ration, and .by ventilating their one
sided ideas as to the prospects of success
and defeat.
Our extravagance we have said is another
cause of our suffering. The principal
thoroughfares of our cities and towns never
wore a more brilliant - aspect than they i do
at the present time, and have'done almost
ever since the rebellion first began to assume
its great and hideous proportions. The side
walks are swept with the silken trains of
passing beauty,which less than three years
ago was adorned only with a low-priced
calico ; dwellings, which until a recent date
contained only the articles of household
furniture absolutely necessary for use, now
excite theenvy of the beholder by the beauty
and luxury of the display; and storekeepers
who formerly induced the purchasers to
enter their places of business,by the cheap
ness of the articles tastefully arranged in
the windows and cases, now accommodate
their offerings to the extravagance of the
times. In filet,whichever way we turn, w 9
sep some evidence of the undue expenditure
of money. With . all due deference •to the
ladies of the North, we must say they have'
had much to , do with the existing trouble,
but they can effect Much in accomplishing
a change. The good work has in fact
already-begun, arid we congratulate the fair
sex upon their adoption of cheaper fabrics
and diminished garments, whether the latter
be in the form of a contracted skirt or an
abbreviated jacket. Let ''Shoddy"invest its
suddenly acquired gains in costly foreign
silks, satins and jewels; but patriotic mis
tresses and maids should emulate the
humility of their ancestors until the war
has terminated,when they can again,if they
select, adorn their persons with useless but
attractive decorations.
'/HE CITY'S QUOTA.
It appears that some of the districts into
which the city is divided have furnished
over their quota, and some under, and in
order to relieve these last, it is proposed to
transfer the excess of men in the former to
them. And as those districts that raised
an excess did so• by private subscription,
it is proposed that this money be repaid to
them, not, by those districts which are to be
relieved, but by the city - at large.. That is;
the districts are to contribute towards
repaying themselves.
There are reasons, however, which render
this whole scheme of transfer unjust and
impracticable. No one knows at what time
a further. draft may be ordered, and then
ttose districts which halt now furnished
TITF DAILY EVENING BULLETIN ' PHILADELPHIA, T TRPDAY: APRIL 26 1864
an excess have an absolute right to.have
that excess credited to them on the new
call.. This is a right which no. action of
Government, especially of a municipal
Government, can deprive them ; certainly
not without their own consent. Any money
paid by the city as propoSed, towards
effecting - this transfer, will be thrown away,
and is our treasury in a condition to afford
to throw money away ? Let those who
lave to pay taxes and furnish it, answer.
THE MILITIA REFORM.
A bilf is now before the Legislature en
tirely remodelling our State militia system,
which is now as bad as it can be. It should
receive the earnest attention of our citizens,
that any defects which it may contain play
be removed. It is greatly . - to be reir' etted
that this matter was 'not brought forward
at an earlier stage of the session, for a pro
per law ought to have been already pass*
and in operation at the present time. The
subject is one whose importance cannot be
exaggerated, and should receive the atten
tion of the Legislature in preference to
eVerything else, until the enactment is put
into the best possible shape, and passed.
