He suddenly disappeared some two years

which was identified by a handkerchief on
which his name was written, and also by
parts of his clothing. How he mine to his
death remains a mystery. ... A little daught

tween Conover and others concerned with
him, an expose took place, by wbicn it ap
pears that Conover got up a lot of bogus
evidence, which implicated Jeff. Davis in
the assassination plot. The parties impos

and the Judge Advocate General has af
fected the arrest of Conover, who is in jail.
The Copperheads in every Northern
State are exulting over their success in Ma

They made .common cause with the Rebels
throughout the war, and now the Rebels
make common cause with them. Jobnsor. s
'policy recognizes Rebels as good as citi
zens gives them votes,and, of course, they
vote with the Copperheads, lhev would
bo ungrateful and unwise if they didn't
but what say the patriotic Democrats ? Are
they willing to coalesce with the followers of
Gen. Lee and Jeff Davis?

pONSUMFriON CURABLE BY DR.
SCHENCK'S MEDICINES.
To cure consumption, the y stem must be pre
pared so that the lunirs will heal. To accomplish
this, tbe liver Ld stomach must first be cleanser
and an appetite created for good wholesome Cuod,
wnicn, by these medicines will be digastti prop
erly, and good healthy blood made ; thus build
ing up the constitution. Scbenck's Mandrake
Pillscleansc the stomach of all billious or tnucu
ous accumulations ; and. by using the Sea Weed
Tonic in connection, the appetite is restored .'
rcnenek s 1'uimonic cyrup is vatrieious as well
as medicinal, and, by using the three remedies.
all impurities are expelled front sba system, and
good, wholesome blood made, which will repel all
disease. If patients will take these medicines
according to directions, consumption very fre
quently in its last stage yields readily to their ac
tion. Take tbe PilJs frequently, to cleans tb
liver and stomach. It does not follow that because
the bowels are not costive they are not required.
tor sometimes in diarrhea they are neccessary
Tbe stomach must be kept healthy, and an appe
tite created to allow the Pulmonic Svrup to act
on the respiratory organs properly and allay an
irritation. Then all that is required to pnroria
a permanent cure is. to prevent taking enid Ex
crcise about tbe rooms as mucb-'as possible, eat all
the richest food fat 'meat,.' j;itiiie, and, in fact,
anvthing the appetite craves : but be particular
and ma-stioate well. Got 17. 18R8 'I'l
