The great Remedies for all Diseases of the Liver,
Stomach or Digestive Organs.
HooFLAND's GERMAN BITTERS
is composed of the pure Juices (or, as they are
medicinally termed, Extracts) of Roots,
Herbs and Barks,TT making a prepara
tion highly conceit- trated and entirely
free from alcoholic admixture of any
kind.
Hooflantrg German Tonle
Is a combination of all the ingredients of the
Sitters, with the purest. quality of Santa Cruz
Hum, Orange, etc., making ono of the mast
pleasant and agreeable remedies ever offered to
the public.
Those preferring a Medicine, free from Alco
holic admixture, will use
FLOOFLAND'S GERMAN BITTERS
Those who have no objection to the combina
tion of the Bitters, tui stated, will use
ROOFLAND'S GERMAN TONIC
They are both equallygood, and contain the
same medicinal virtues, the choice between the
two being a mere matter of taste, the Tonic be-
Ing the most mlatable.
The stomach, from a variety of atlases, such
as Indigestion, Dys- pepsin, Nervous De
bility, etc., is very r% apt to have its func
tions deranged. The 1.3 Liver, sympathising
as closely as it does with the Stomach,
then becomes affected, the result of which is
that the patient suffers from several or more of
tile following diseases:.
Constipation, Flatulence, Inward Piles( Fall
ness of Blood to the Head, Acidity of the Stom
ach, Nausea, Heartburn, Disgust for Food, Full
ness or Weight in the Stomach, Sour Eructa
tions, Sinking or Fluttering at the Pit of the
Stomach, Swimming of the Head, Hurried or
Difficult Breathing, Fluttering at the Heart,
Choking or Snflbcating Sensations when in a
lying posture, Dimness of Vision, Dots or Webs
before the Sight, Dull Pain in the Head, Defi
ciency of Perspiration, Yellowness of the Skin
and Eyes, Pain in the Side, Back, Cbest, Limbs,
etc., Sudden Flushes of Heat, Burning of the
Flesh, Constant Imaginings of Evil and Great
Depression of Spirits.
The sufferer from these diseases should exer
cise the greatest caution in the selection of a
remedy for his ease, purchasing only
that which he is as-sured from his in
vestigations and in- ri q

Twenty-two years since they were first intro.
duced Into this country from Germany, during
which time they have undoubtedly performed
more cures, and benefit ted suffering humanity
td a greater extent, than any other remedies
known to the public.
These remedies will effectually cure Liver com
plaint, Jaundice, -,Dyspepsia, C.hroule
'or Nervous Debilltk "L'i Chronic Diarrhom,
Diseases of the K 1 • Jr neve aud all diem
es arising from a die- ordered , Liver,

DEBILITY,
Resulting from any cause whatever • Prostra
tion at the Syysetteem, Induced by Severe
'Labor, Sardehlps, Exposure,
Fevers, Etc/
There Is no medicine extant equal to these
remedies in such cases. A tone and vigor is im
parted to the whole system, the appetite Is
strengthened, food is enjoyed, the stomach di
gests promptly, the blood is purified, the cont
plexion becomes sound and healthy, the yellow
tinge Is eradicated from the eyes, a bloom Is
iiven to the cheeks, and the weak and nervous
nvalid becomes" a strong and healthy being.
Persons advanced In life, and feeling the hand
of time weighing heavily upon them, with all
its attendant irls, will dud in the use of this
BETERS or the TONIC, an elixir that Will in
stil new life into their veins, restore in a meas
ure the energy and ardorof more youthful days,

The Radicals reproduce the stale slanders
of the past, and try to ignore the grave ques
tions of the present.
They prate of their loyalty and make it the
excuse for their corruption, their extrava
gance and misrule.
They imagine that you have slept during
The three years of their iniquitous tutsgov'ern
ment, and that you will forget that taxation
oppressed you, that your commerce lan
guishes, and that your business is broken up.
They have proven themselves powerful to
destroy and powerless to restore.
Their only policy is hate, and upoa this
they ask a new lease of power; forgetful that
a thinking and a practical people require
them to answer :
Why is the national debt brehtcr now than
when Lee surrendered, and why does it still

Bondholder vs. Taxpayer.
Bondholder—lt would be an outrage to pay
the bonds in greenbacks. I have all I own,
and it is not much, iu bonds, but greenbacks
are not par.
Tar-payer---Did you purchase them with
gold ?
Bondholder—Yes; I brought two thousand
&Mars in gold, from Canada, when I dame
to this country a few years ago.
Tax-payer--At what price did you pur
chase your bonds?
Bondholder—Oh, I didn't purchase. my
bonds direct with gold. I first sold one
thou Sand dollars and got nineteen hundred
in greenbacks ; and for the next thousand I
got two thousand five hundred. I then ptu.-
chased a farm in Crawford county and found
it did not pay me very much, so' sold that
and got seven hundred dollars more than I
paid for it ; and to ask me to take greenbacks
for it - would not be right, ns that is a depre-.
elated currency, and is not worth what the
bonds call for.
Still this very "loil" bondholder, who bled
so profusely for his country, thinks that the
farmer who bought his !arta, which he could
not rent to pay interest on, should be taxed
to pay him Interest and. principal on fifty
one hundred dollars for his two thousand in
vested, with the addition of the present
price of ,gold,•making in all seven thousand
one hundred and forty dollars, or three dol
lars and fifty-five cents for every dollar in
vested. A very nice speculation indeed.—

"This led the procession ' and provoked
considerable conjecture as to what it was

those who fought the battles anti made the
sacrifices, those - who tilled land to produce
supplies, and those who labored in the work
shops, the organs of the Radicals are assert-
Jog that the bondholders are the men who
pay all our revenue. • The organ of the Rad
icals in Lorain county, replying to an article
which recently appeared in the Cleveland
PlaindeaTer, sneeringly says that "not one
man in every hundred pays-a penny of tax
es to the Government directly.' Trite, the
laboringman does not pay his taxes directly
to the dovernment, but every man of sense
knows that the consumer pays the tax upon
every article manufactured by capital.
praotical,workitig man, a few days - ago, be
ing in our office, handed us the folloning,
which In itself is a volume of argument to
show that the poor-man does pay taxes:
Radical legislation requires the consumer
to pay all taxes. It taxes

The laboring man of the country, who
owns a little house and lot, which he has
earned by toiling from early morning to
night, pays State tax, county tax, school tax,
road tax upon it; while his next door neigh
bor, who is a bondholder, owning fifty thou
sand dollars in bonds, pays no taxes what
ever, draws interest- in gold, and laughs at
his unfortunate neighbor, who has his mon
ey in a little home ! If the masses of labor
ing men desire the equal taxation of every
species of property according to its real val
ue—government bonds and other securities
included—if they want one currency for the
people, the laborer and the office-holder, the
pensioner and the soldier, the producer and
the bondholder, they will not vote the Radi

Important Facts for the People.
Keep it before the people, that, according
to the official statement of the Secretary of
the Treasury, the exports of the North did
not pay last year for one-third of the goods
imported into the United States during that
year; and that the productions exported
from the South paid for more than two-thirds
of those imports
Keep it before the people, that by the
same report it appears that this year, not
withstanding our heavy grain crops, the ex
ports of the North will fall short of the value
of onr imports by many millions of dollars,
and that we must depend upon the reduced
exports from the South to escape from ruin
-ous indebtedness to Europe!
Keep it before the people, that before the
war and after the war, the .productions of
_the South have invariably paid for more than
two-thirds of our imports and have thus kept
the balance Of our trade with other nations
in favor of the United States.
Keep it before the people, that when the
export of the Southern products shall cease,
the amount of our imports will be reduced
by two-thirds and our Custom House duties
by one hundred millions of dollars, which
amount must then be collected by-the inter
nal revenue or by direct taxation.
Keep it before the people, that the' recon
struction measures of Congress arc rapidly
demoralizing the blacks of the South, unfit
ting them for labor, and that in anotheryear
they will be more likely to starve for want of
the common necessaries of life than to con
tribute by their labor .to the Southern sta
ples for exportation, and that, consequently,
the balance of trade against the North will
be so enormous as to lead to inevitable bank
ruptcy.
Keep it before the people, that the cost of
the military machinery to keep the whites
under the subjection of ignorant, brutal and
lazy blacks, costs the people of the North at
least $:200,000,000 annually, and that this
enormous sum is paid• annually be the peo
ple in order that their prospertly may be
permanently and forever destroyed.
Keep it before the people, that the insane
demagogues nt Washington, disregardiu,g
the voice of an indignant peopleat the late
elections, still persist in their hit:1111011A poli
cy of negro supremacy, and that they have
already shown, that "whom the gods n isL

A LEAF FROM PIIAIIT'S PRIVATE II Brom . .
—The Galena Democrat, published at the
home of Gen. Grant, thus dishes up a page
of private history which is worth reading
and remembering just at this time : •
"We have published several extracts from
leading journals, wherein . the intemperate
habits of Gen. Grant are criticised very se
verely. ,We do this to show our people that
others are at length finding out what every
body hereabouts, who knows anything about
the General, has known all along, that he
has for many years e except at brief intervals
far between, been one of the most besot=
.drunkards.
"We refrained frOni speaking of this mat
ter heretofore, and would not do so now it
we thought it would injure his prospects as a
Jacobin candidate to have it generally
known. But we know the general acknowl
edgement of tits fact will 'render him still
more the idol of the party of moral ideas, and
as he is, of all others, who have been spoken
of as the probable nominees of the Radicals,
the one we most desire to have them nomi-
I nate, we willingly contribute our mite to aid
them In their choice."
Gen. Grant and the Angel.
Ulysses Grant one night laid down to rest,
His eyes were closed—hands folded on his
breast,
He slept ; he dreamed. An angel bright and
fiiir
Soft o'er the sleeping hovered in the air.
"Ulysses!" cried the angel, "I am sent
To learn of thee—who would be President—
What arc thy views upon affairs of State ?
What thy opinions of the questions great
That now disturb the dation ? Speak,' pray,
For time is precious and I must away." '
Ulysses looked the angel in the eye,
Then, while his tics-mu _heaved a monstrous-
NO. 17.
Ile said "Bright angel I contest frmn yon
der star
Be seated, pray, and try a good cigar."
'Nay ! nay ! Uly.ses angels never smoke.'
"Impossible !" cried U.; "you surely joke."
"I speak the truth ; come, quickly, frankly
state
What arc your views upon affairs of State."
s'pose you've secn," said U., "blue you've
been down,
The handsome pups of my friend, Marshal
Brown?"
"Why, General Grant, yon must be in your
CLIPS;
Whnt should I know of thy friend's whining
pups ?
About ,uelt nonsenie pray no longer prate.
But tell us what you think of 'fairs of State."
"Affairs of State? Why, yes—inule&l—of
Course—
Can you describe' the points of a good

With moistened eye the angel turned aside.
"Pray," cried Ulysses, "did you ever rid.)
Dan Rice's mule ?" "Dan Rice's male i '
Ulysses ; do you take me for a fool?
I that am on a special errand sent
To learn tour views, who would be Presi

Another sigh Ulysses' bosom heaved,
As though his heart was sadly, sorely
grieved ;
And as the angel plumed his graceful flight
To regions of unclouded glory bright,
U. opc'd one eye, and then the angel heard.
"Good-bye bright angel—'mum's the word.'"
WIIY Is LIVING so Illon?—The producers
of the cOuntry—the farmers, mechanics and
laboring men—are anxiously inquiring tilty
taxes are so high, and its anxiously-seeking
some means of esuaping from their onerous
and increasing burdens. The Radical poli
ticians tell them that it is the legacy left by
our long and expensive civil war. This is
undoubtedly true, but the politicians are
careful enough to tell only half the truth.
Ten States of this Union are governed by
the strong arm of military power. To do
this requires the services of fifty thousand
soldiers and officers, at a cost to the tax-payer
of one hundred million dollars. •There is
also a Freedman's Bureau, established for the
avowed object of taking care of the negroes,
but really to give fat positions and stealings
to hordes of lazy office-seekers. This luxury
costs thirty million dollars more.
What makes living so dear and rents so
high? Simply the ruinous policy of the
Radical party. The southern States instead
of being a huge incubus upon the labor of the
North, might help to pay the National debt,
and help bear the burdens of taxation. In
stead of producing, the South is consuming
at least one hundred and thirty million del-,
lars yearly, wrung from the hard earningaof
the North. She does not ask for a standing
armv ; she does not require a Freedman 'a
Bureau; these are quartered upon her against
the solemn protest of her people. Both are
useless, cumbersome, expensive and full of
corruption. Remove them, and the South
wilt again blossom as a rose. Keeping the
Radical party in power is keeping a huge
standing army, and a corrupt, enervating,
useless rreefttnen's Bureau, at a cost of one
hundred and thirty_ million dollars every
year. So long as the reins of government
are in the hands of the extremists, just so
long will the necessaries of life continue
high, rents dear, and taxes continue to wear
out and exhaust the energies of the people.
Lincoln and Stanton on Gov. Seytuont.
The World appropriately recalls the fact
that Just before the battle of Gettysburg, in
July, IS')3, the officer of Governor Sg
mour's staff, :who had been charged by him
with superintending the movements of the
New York troops whom Governor Seymour
threw forward with such unexampled repid
ity and energy to resist the invasion of
Pennsylvania by Lee, called to say - farewell
to President Lincoln. Taking the officer
(the Tribune knows perfectly well who that
officer was) by both hands, President Lin
coln said to him : "I WISH YOU TO UN
DERSTAND THAT YOU CANT OT POS
SIBLY USE WORDS TOO ARM TO
CONVEY TO GOVERNOR SEYMOUR
MY THANKFULNESS FOR HIS
PROMPT AND EFFICIENT HELP GIV
EN TO THE GOVERNMENT IN THIS
CRISIS." This language the President
thrice repeated, accompanying it with a fer
vent pressure of the hands, and uttering it
each time with increased earnestness and
feeling. -
In like manner, Secretary Stanton, under
date June 27th, 186:3, wrote to Governor
Seymour: "I cannot forbear expressing to
you the deep obligation I feel for THE
PROMPT AND CANDID SUPPORT YOU
HAVE GIVEN TO THE GOVERNMENT
IN TIIE PRESENT EMERGENCY. THE
ENERGY, ACTIVITY, AND PATRIOT
ISM YOU HAVE EXHIBITED, I MAY
lIE PERMITTED PERSONALLY AND
OFFICIALLY TO ACKNOWELEDGE,
without arrogating any personal claims on
my part in such service, or to any aarT i c e
whatever. I shall be happy to be always es
teemed your friend."

all if the tesuuiony of Mr. Lincoln and Mr.
Stanton is satisfactory as to Governor Ser.
