U you stand upon a certain bluff on the south side of the Arkansas river, a few miles above the mouth of the Pursratorie. you will be the spectator of a scene not easily forgotten in future wanderings. Eastward stretches dimly away the wind ing, sedgy valley of the dreariest river of the West,—treeless, sandy, desolate. A11 around you are the endless undulations of the wilderness. Beneath you are the yet silent camps of those who are here to-dav and gone to-morrow. Westward is some thing you anticipate rather than see, vague and misty forms lying upon the horizon. But while the world Is yet dark below and around you, and there Is scarce the faint est tinge of gray in the east, if you chance to look northward you will see something crimson high up against the sky. At first it is a roseate glow, shapeless and unde tined. Then it becomes a cloud-castle, battlemented and inaccessible, draped in mist and hung about with a hovering cur tain of changing purple. But as it grows whiter and clearer, the vague outlines of a mighty shape appear below it, stretch ing downward toward the earth. What you see is the lolly pinnacle which has gleamed first in the flying darkness, sun kissefl and glorified in the rosy mornings of all the centuries. It is Pike’s peak, 60 miles away. l ears ago, a victim ot the nomadic in stinct named Lemuel Sims, a man who had forsaken his home in the Missouri bottoms for a gold-hnnting journey to California, and who, after many changes, had again started eastward, was finally stranded upon the banks of Arkansas, Within tho magic circle of protection around old Fort Lyon. Sims had grown middle-aged in wandering, and had consumed almost the last remains of that dogged energy in mi gration which is the characteristic of his class, by tlie time he had reached a spot than which it would have been hard to find any more utterly wanting in at tractions. But he was not alone, for he had a wife who had been his com panion in all his journeys, and three daughters, who had irregularly come in upon his vicissitudes. In sending those guests which are always unwelcome and never turned away, the old man’s fate had not been kind. What he needed was boys —boys of whom hereafter should be matle the ranchers, the Indian fighters, the hunters and poker-player9 who should diliigently follow in the footsteps of their predecessor and live hard and die suddenly. When Sims came to his residence, the order of march was as fol lows: First, Sims, a hundred yards in ad vance, gun in hand; secondly, two mules and an old wagon, Mrs. Sims at the helm; thirdly, three cows, four sheep, four dogs; and behind all, two freckled, brawny, moecasined girls. The third and young est, the darling of the family,—too young indeed for service,—occupied a cozy nest among the household goods, and peeped out from beneath the tattered cover, plnmp, saucy aud childishly content. She had ac quired the name of “Chuck,” abbreviated from chicqitita,—“little one,”—and amid all the changes which befell her thereafter, the name clung tocher as a Dart of herself. The Sims “outfit” was only an integral portion of a cavalcade of such, strong enough for all purposes of mutual society aud defense. Months had passed since the family began this last move. The long summer days had passed, and the-nipping nights and scanty pasturage were theeause of the premature ending of the journey. Having stopped only for the night, they liad concluded to stay until spring, or some other time when a spasm ot the mi gratory disease should seize them. But the rough house of cotton-wood logs Sims made with the help of his family was a sheltered nook which soon became home like. There was game in abundauce, and what was not immediately cousumed the old man exchanged for groceries at the post. What was still more fortunate, Sim’s house was near the route of travel, and he could indulge his love of gossip, as well as furnish an occasional meal to trav ellers. When spring came, the slock had grown fat, and, save the mules, had in creased in numbers a hundred fold. Im- pelted by the force of circumstances, a small garden was inclosed, and it came about that by June the frontiers man and his family found themselves prospering bevond anything in their past history. The shanty took upon itself the dignity of a ranch; and in truthfulness it is necessary to state that the commodity which met the readiest and most profitable sale was a fluid, which, chemically speaking, it were slanderous to call whiskey. “Sims's” became known lav and wide, aud the pvo prietor began to think himself gaining up on the world, both in money and fame.— two things which, in the unfortunate con stitution of society, are not sufficiently distributed. But .this new era of prosper ity was not due to Sims’s management. It grew solely out of the fact that he had three daughters. The untortunute consti tution of the fumily was the direct cause of its unwonted thrift. Any white woman in such a place is an enticement not to be resisted by the average plainsman, and “Sims’s gals’’ were celebrities over an ex tent of country as large as the Slate of New York. But as time passed and the small herds increased the females became objects ot a still greater interest. They were spoken ot as heiressess. Nevertheless, at the pinch no amount of money could have married either of the two eldest (laugh ters. They were tail, gaunt and course. Thev were as ignorant as hve, and had performed the duties of masculinity so long that either of them was nearly a match for a cinnamon beiu\ Not so with the youngest.

Subject to the deolalon of the Rational Union Re publican Convention. The Portland Press understands "that Hon. F- A. Pike will not be a candidate for nomination as Representative to Con gress in the Fifth District, and that Mr. Hale will be nominated without opposi tion.” _ The Standard says “it is a fact not to be disguised that the democracy are surprised and disappointed at the nomination of Horace Greeley.” nevertheless it seems to advise the party to swallow the ugly pill, although it has not the courage to raise the name of Greeley as the candidate. DOUBLE-FACEDNESS. The Maine Standard has been exercis ing the vast cunning of that establishment in small things, in an effort to convict us of donble-facedness in some of oar recent editorials. It has been an herculean task, but we believe the editor is satisfied, after selecting a sentence here and another there, that he has made out a case. For this alleged donble-facednesss we are regaled with choice denunciations and epithets. The offence imputed to us is called “The Journal’s Lunacy,” “the contemptible tergiversation and dou ble-facedness of the Kennebec Journal,” "its duplicity.” "all the towns folks” are said to be laughing at us, we are said to lack brains, and so on to the end of quite along chapter. Now we present the following extracts from the columns of the Standard, and would inquire of the editor oi that paper, if he can see upon comparing his utteran ces anything in them like the appearance of double-facedness as to Horace Greeley. In its leading editorial of this week the Standard says of Greeley: He has been one of the most prominent supporters of the republican party since in organisation, THE LEADING SPIRIT, IN FACT, in giving tone and direction to the re publican preas of the country, not only in supporting that party and ita measures until within a brief period, bat in opposing and de nouncing the democratic party. Passing along in the very same article we are surprised to find the following. “IF HIS EXAMPLE AND TEACHING HAD BEEN FOLLOWED BY THE RE PUBLICAN PARTY, the country would have escaped the turmoil, strife, and ruinous Tesulta of carpet-bag and scallawag rule in the South, and the southern people would have become the devoted allies of that party.” In one paragraph he is said to hare been the leading spirit of the republican party, and in the next it is remarked that “if his example and teaching had been followed by the republican party” &e; the last flatly contradicting the first. But we are desirous of doing full justice to the “brains” that conduct the Standard, and so we give another example of its ability to present the same Riibject in two different lights. In its article of yester day it inquires, “Does any one doubt Mr. Greeley's honesty To which we let the Standard itself reply in the following arti cle which appeared as editorial in its columns in 1868. “The Tribune is ‘still harping on my daughter.’ Gov. Seymour and the draft riots constitute the major part of its editorials day after day, and Ku-Kluxes the minor. If there had been no draft rioja and if there were no Kn-Kiuxes, the Tribune would be as dry these times as Mr. Greeley’s old white bat. It ia not of the least consequence that four fifths of WHAT THE TRIBUNE SAYS on each subject IS UTTERLY FALSE. Every one expects that, and no one expects anything else. IT WOULD BE A8 UNNATURAL FOR THE TRIBUNE TO BE FRANK AND HONEST, as for Thad Stevens to be humane, Ben Butleruprightor Parson Brown low a Christian." Since the Tribune is Mr. Greeley and Mr. Greeley the Tribune, the Standard has its answer from its own colnmns. We don't say the editor of the Standard is a lunatic, or lacking in brains, or dishonest, or that everybody is laughing at him, but we copy these paragraphs from his paper and simply leave it to an intelligent public to decide what they think of the editor s mental and moral condition, and whether he is the proper person to accuse any one else of double-facedness. A DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION. The National Democratic Committee have issued their call for a national con vention of the party. The nomination of Horace Greeley interfered with the plan of holding no convention. The lead ers did not dare to take the responsibility of endorsing him upon their shoulders, and so the endorsement or rejection of the Cincinnati nominations is an open question for the democracy to settle among themselves. Thero have been many strange tilings in politics, but this question now to be settled by the democracy, whether they will support Horace Greeley as a candi date for President or not, is the strangest one that the democratic party or auy other party in tbiB country has ever been called to act upon. The editor of the Trib une needs no introduction to the readers of the democratic papers, but if they make up their minds as to his litness for a can didate for President from such sources of information, alas! poor Horace. If there is a “lower depth” in politics have the;, not consigned him to it over and over again If there is an epithet that may ex press contempt more forcibly titan an other have they not hurled it at him If the republican party has been guilty of sin* is he uot the greatest sinner of all These are some of the ideas tliat occur to disinterested spectators, who do not care whether the democrats nominaie Greeley or reject him and select another candi date. sharp fight within the democratic lines, in caucuses and conventions, for the selec tion of delegates to Baltimore, over the nomination of Greeley. The leaders are undecided and irresolute. They have not the courage to commit themselves squarely for Greeley, but they don’t know what else to do. On the contrary the convictions and feelings of the masses are strongly opposed to the surrender implied in taking such a leader. There is division of the most serious kind, and if the question of the endorsement of Greeley were put to the party to-day it would be carried against him by an overwhelming majority. The danger which the democratic lead ers fear lies in this opposition of the masses of the party to him. If nomina ted by the democrats upon the Cincinnati platform, then the question will be with the democrats, Greeley or Grant. They have already lenrned that in a choice of this kind their party will be split. Which way they settle it is none of our business or concern, for if they don’t nominate Gree ley they are whipped, and if they do they are beaten. It is only a choice of evil# with them at the best. nOW TEBY VOTED AT CINCINNATI. The correspondent of the Boston Trans cript tells in the following paragraph how the votes in the “Reform” Convention at Cincin nati were in tome cases cast: “The representations of several States in this convention have been purely bogus. George Alfred Townsend, correspondent of the Chicago Tribune, has thrown the whole vote of Delaware on every ballot, lie is not a resident of Delaware. He is a Bohemian— a citizen of the world. He had a seat at the reporters’ table. In the call for States, the clerk looked down to his seat and exclaimed ‘Delaware 1’ Mr. Townsend arose and said, 'Delaware, six votes for such a candidate, changing the vote in nearly every ballot. Sometimes he was absent, and when Dela ware was called one of bis associate reporters would exclaim, ‘Delaware has stepped out.' or ‘Delaware has gone to get a drink.’ On the final vote, when several States were changing for Greeley, Ben. Perley Poor, who was sitting near said to Townsend, ‘Greeley is going to be nominated; you bad better be on tbe winning side, and change your vote.’ Mr. Townsend arose, addressed the President, and said, ‘Delaware gives her six votes for Horace Greeley,’and it was recorded. Mr. E. Harris of Woonsocket, the eo-laborer of Mr. Atkinson in the free tree-trade movement, was the only delegate from Rhode Island, and gave its whole rote.” TEE 1.0 WEE V GANG. Additional particulars regarding the wanton murder of Col. Wisehart by the swamp angel outlaws are received. A more brutal massa cre of a human being hag scarcely ever been perpetrated by fiends in human shape. The Wisehart family is one of the oldest and most respected in the county, the parents of the deceased, now living there, and none are more esteemed and respected. Col. Wisehart had made several attemps to capture the outr laws and he was feared by them more than any other man in the county. He was also engaged in writing a history of the lives and deeds of the outlaws, from which a corre spondent made copious notes some months since when in that section. Nothing has been heard ef the outlaws, Stephen Lowery and Andrew Strong since they committed this foul deed. A singular report which brings Henry Berry Lowery, the outlaw chief, back again from the grave, lias reached my ears. A per son residing in the dominions of the outlaws, who has been intimate with the whole band, asserts that he met Henry Berry Lowery, who has been reported dead for months, on Fri day, the day succeeding the murder, face to face and there was no mistaking him. This statement is generally discredited and people of this entire section of the county have the most implicit faith in the demise of Rob Roy of Carolina. I POLITICAL. It is reported that Hon. Charles Hale has tendered, or is about to tender bis resignation as Assistant Secretary of State. John Morrissey, the gambler and prize fight er, has come out strongly in favor of Greeley’s candidature. Andrew Johnson says that he will not sup port Greeley, and that the .democratic party can never be drawn into that bargain. Another liberal republican convention is already talked of, and it is said that ex-Sec retary Cox, Judge Stanley Mathews and Judge Hoadloy are in favor of the movement. The Chicago Post informs Mr. Greeley that the eyes of every merino sheep in Amer ica are on him and that every pig of iron in our factories calls to him, in a metalie squeak to stand firm to his principles nml do justice, though the tariff fail. Long John Wentworth spent a hundred dollars telegraphing disappointments to Judge Davit. Grant used to settype, Colfax is an old news paper man, while Greeley and Brown are ex perienced printers. Four typos running for the highest offices in the people’s gilt ought to make a good impression. The Workingmen’s Central Onion of the State of New York, has tailed a “National Workingmen’s Convention to he held in the city of New York on Monday, May 20, 1872, at No. 17 West Fourth street, for the purpose of nominating candidates for President and Vice President of the United States.” The L'tica Observer (democratic) remarks that the Democratic State Convention, of New York which meets in Kochester on the 15th of this month, may foreshadow the course of the Democratic National Council. The Cincinnati Commercial says that auiong the editors of some thirty German pa pers (mostly daily) of Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Missouri, New York, and Pennsylvania, who met at a lager beer saloon, in that city, on kriday evening, there was nut one who ex pressed himself in lavor of Greeley and j Brown.

local anti State Xetos. John B. Allen, of this city, wa» drowned at Cedar Bun, Penn., on the 13th of April, while attempting to dislodge a Jam of logs. Ilis wife resides in Augusts, and they have friends in Macbias. The Kennebec Union Agricultural and Hor ticultural Society at a meeting of the Trustees holden at Gardiner, May 4th, chose Wm. B. Wharff and John Knox, Finance Committee, to make arrangements as to when and where to hold the next cattle Show and Fair. It will take about two months to build the new iron bridge over the Andrsocoggin at Brunswick. It will cost some 8C5,000. The cost of the old bridge was 830,000. The truss work of the new bridge, unlike that at Au gusta, will be under the track, and the cars will run over the bridge instead of through it. The annual inspection of the Capital Guards will take place this evening at half-past six o'clock, at the Amory. Gen. James A. Hall, Inspector General will inspect them. The Company will accordingly assemble in full uniform, and equipped. Full ranks are nec essary. A more marked improvement was never made to Water street than that carried toward by Commissioner Hussey the past few days. The dirt and filth that has been for years ac cumulating, and that has yielded so much dust, has been carted oft, and the road bed covered with coarse gravel that the usual trav el will soon make as solid and compart as cement. The Gardiner Journal says that the lodge uf Good Templars instituted at King's Mills in Whitefield last winter, is in a flourishing condition and constantly increasing in num bers. On the last regular meeting of Boyd Lodge of Good Templars, No. 176, the fol lowing officers were elected: Henry Wheeler, W. C. T. Hattie Crowell, W. V. T. Charles P. Sherman, W. S. Hummer Potter, W. F. S, K. McKindsley, W. T. F. P. Carleton, W. M. Mrs. C. It. Carleton, W. C. Cora King, W. I. G. Fred Tarr, W. O. G. The Dirigo Lodge of G. T. at North White field, O. F. Glidden, W. C. T., is progressing finely. The Gardiner Journal apologises for its erroneous statement that the Messrs. Sprague had discharged their workmen here, by stat ing indirectly that it had the information from a gentleman who spent the winter in Augusta as Representative from Gardiner. We will acknowledge that this was good authority, and doubtless the gentleman in private con versation expressed what be supposed were facts in the case, never dreaming that Mor rell would make use of them in his paper. But this is no apology for the publication of a statement likely to damage the business in terests of a sister city, without further inves tigation. Were a gentleman to come up from Gardiner to -day aud tell us that the cross grained, rough-cornered Morrell had been converted, and had become lamb-like and “meek as Moses," wc should be compelled to put him on a long probation, and wait until the issue of two or three numbers of the Home Journal, before making the announce ment in our religious column. But we'll for give Hiram this time if he'll agree not to “slop over" again. Masonic Anniversaries. The Grand Chapter met in Portland at U o’clock Wednesday morning.

The Society met at the Common Council Room, in this city, yesterday forenoon at 11 o’clock, at which time an informal meeting was held, the President, Dr. J. B. Bell of Augusta, in tbe chair. In the absence of the Secretary, Dr. W. E. Payne of Bath, was made Secretary pro tem. The records of the last meeting were read and approved. The following committees were announced by the chair: OnTreasurcr’s account—Thompson. Burr and Eaton. On Nominations—Briery, Clark, and N. G. II. Pulsifer. The name of J. L. Babcock. M. I)., of Hal lowell, was proposed for membership, and re ferred to the Censors for examination. The names of William Waters of Searsport, Thomas B. Pulsifer of Ellsworth, and Olin M. Drake of Ellsworth, were also presented for membership. The convention then adjourned to the Mansion House, to take dinner with the com mittee of arrangements. Afternoon. The committee appointed to investigato charges against Dr. Nathan Wiggin of Rock land, reported through its chairman, Dr. E. Clark of Portland, reinstating him to member ship in the society. Dr. Wiggin was allowed to make an ex planation. The charges preferred against him were for intemperance. Dr. Wiggin then requested that he be per mitted to honorably withdraw from the So ciety, and his request was granted. The chairman of the board of Censors re ported favorably the names of J. L. Babcock, M I)., Ilallowell. Wm. Waters, M. 1)., Searsport. Thomas B. Pulsifer, M. D., Ellsworth. Olin M. Drake. M. D., Ellsworth, and they were declared elected to member ship. Dr. Payne made report on Materia Medica, urging the publication of a complete edition of the same, embracing all the recent results of treatment and investigation, and that shall gather up all the scattered but valuable frag ments. He thought that nothing short of the publication of the full volume should be en couraged. He thought that the publication of the work was very important, and while it might not be necessary for the Society to pledge themselves financially in the matter, an expression of their desire that the wotk should be done, might help forward its pub lication. Dr. Bell heartily endorsed the sentiments and suggestions of the report. The publica tion of the work was a universally felt want. He had had correspondence with eminent men in the profession, and was satisfied that the work could be prepared if a publisher could be found to undertake its publication, and be insured against loss. Dr. Payne remarked that he wanted the Materia Medica published without abridge ment; the abridgement should be made at the bedside. Dr. Burr of Portland thought that the want of a publisher was no obstacle to the forward ing of the work. Drs. Gallupc and Clark endorsed the re port. Dr. Bell offered the following resolve, which was unanimously passed: K‘esoltnl, That in the opinion &C this So ciety there should be an immediate publica tion of a full and complete Homeopathic Materia Medica, and that such an one will meet with the active encouragement of this Society and the profession. The thanks of the Society were voted to Dr. Pavne for his report. Dr. E. Clark of Portland, front the Com mittee on Clinical Medicine, made wiitten reports of several cases, treated successfully, giving full symptoms, from day to day during treatment, medicines administered, &c. Dr. CUrk also read reports of two cases prepared ■by Dr. Dodge. Dr. I. 8. Hall of Gardiner, made report ot two cases which he had treated successfully. Dr. Gallupe reported two or three cases. Drs. Eaton, l’ayne and Burr reported in teresting cases of cancer. llemarks on these several cases were made by different members of the society. The reports were accepted and ordereil to be placed on file. The committee-on Nominations presented the names of the following persons for offi cers President, .T. P. Jeffords, 51. D.', of Ban gor. Vice Presidents, Moses Dodge, 51. D., of Portland, N. G. II. Pulsifer, M. D., of Wa tery ille. lteeording Secretary, W. E. Payne, 51. I)., of Bath. Corresponding Secretary, J. B. Bell, 51. D., of Augusta. Treasurer, W. Gallupe, At. D. of Bangor. The report was accepted nnd the officers declared elected. Adjourned to evening. Evening. Dr. J. B. Bell of this city, President of the Society, gave an address on the helps and hindrances to the progress and standing of Homoeopathy. The most obvious hindrance, he said, is the misapprehension of the people concerning many things in the practice and concerning medicine in general, which is also apt to excite prejudice. One man professes to believe in Hoimcopathy in general, but thinks that some cases require “something stronger.” He should he shown that the object of treatment is to restore order, not to create disorder; and the thing required is the appropriate tool, and not the ponderous one. Another is staggered because some a’* child ate a whole bottle of pellates in w bon, which wa* intended to la*t a grown perion several week*. He i»u»t be told tb*t the medicine wa* adapted in both quantify and qualify to a diseased state, and would hare little or no inflopoee Upon a healthy body. The inflamed eye of a man is painfully sensitive to the mild light of his darkened room, while the healthy eye, even of a child, bathe* with pleasure In floods of summer light. The medicine taken by the child was not intended to kill, but to cure. Some doubt alter an obvions cure—they don’t know whether it was the medicine, or what i^ waa. Sleepless patients or those suffering great pain, think they must have something to produce immediate sleep. Many of these can be convinced that if is better to be cured that they may have ease, than to have temporary ease without Die cure. Some have the idea that the “chief end of man” is to ke.ep the bowels open. This error requires special attention. All such need to be taught that tiie poor bowels form but a part of the human economy, and are not to be abused just because they are handy to get at! The various appliances for their relief were recapitulated by the doctor. In the treatment of chronic diseases Hom oeopatliists meet with the most serious errors. In many cases the patient must be convinced that he is suffering from an inherant and not an incidental malady. The ignorance of peo ple in this respect is great. It is one ot" the highest glories of Hommopatliy that it cures chronic diseases most thoroughly. Let the people by all oceans be clean, exercise prop erly and eat properly, but let them also know that this will not bring health to nature taint ed with chronic disease. In no other way can these diseases be held under treatment than by a full understanding on the part of the patient of the constitutional nature and deep seat of his malady, and the consequent length of time and careful treatment required for its removal. These were some of the terms of error and prejudices with which Homoeopathy has to con tend. The speaker than proceeded to the considerations of some of the helps to Homoe opathy. The first is, the bigoted opposition of the members of the “old school.” Never lias Homoeopothy taken such strides as dur ing the past year, and never has the persecu tion been more violent. But for the bigoted opposition of the Commissioner of Pensions, Homoeopathy w8* do. pfid.M; Uarlem, 125; do.pul 130 Heading, ;Mlch Central, 115; Cake Shore and Michigan Southern 84* Illinois Central 135* ;CleVel«nd Pittsburg, 82*: Chicago A North Western, 75* tlo.pfd 82* Chicago A Hock Island, 111* Mil.

The Press says that arrangements are be ing made to establish a aboe factory at Wood ford’s Comer, the citizens of that village fhr nishing the capital necessary fur the enter prise. It is thought that it will he success ful. One of the Union street establishments is to carry on their business out there, the in ducements offered to them being superior to those in the city. A little Uojr, fire or six years of age, son of Mr. A. Howard French, boarding at Mrs. Winship’a In Lincoln court, Bangor, fell head-foremost into a barrel of water, Wed nesday. A boy still younger Stood by, and by his aid the half-drowned lad was extrica ted from hit dangerous position The contract for buUdiBg the York county jail and House of Correction has been award ed to Hon. Cyrus H. Hobbs of Wells, for §28,330 and the material of the old jail. The work is to be completed December 1st, and operatious are to be begun at once on the foundation which was put in two years ago. Five bids were otiered. Some time between Monday nigbt and Wednesday morning, some creature in hu man form entered the Catholic ecmstcry at Birch Hill, and with a heavy instrument, probably an axe or sledge hammer, broke and defaced the marble crosses over the graves of Daniel Scully, Mrs. Catherine Hurler, Mrs. Murray, George F. Taney and Mrs. i'ender grast. Two sculptured lambs on the tomb stone of Mr. Fields were also broken ott and demolished hy this base fellow, whose action in desecrating the graves of the dead cannot be too strongly condemned and should be punished to the extent of the law. The May or has been authorized to olTer a reward of one hundred dollars lor the detention of the rascal, whom it is hoped our citizens will lyse every effort to discover.—Bangor Whig. The 1‘ortland Transcript of this week con demns the “loud style” of dress and furniture which so generally prevails. Dr. Johnson's rule is the best one: “Dress so that no per son can possibly remember what you have on." George McCormick of Bangor, the l|d whose leg was crushed by a car Tuesday, and afterwards am^gtated, is doing well and will doubtiesa recover. The Lewiston Journal says that on Wed nesday morning the body of Mr. Jonathan Bangs was found in the Drew Brook, near Leeds Junction. He got up early that morn ing and went out without making a tire. Not returning for some time his wife ascertained that lie was not about the premises ami'got some neighbors to search for him.

They are easy of administration, prompt in their action, certain in their results, safe and reliable in all forme of disease. 4 Vo Person con take those Bitters accord log to directions, and remain long unwell, provided their bones are not destroyed by mineral poison or other ■nans, and the vital organa wasted beyond the point of repair.

Bilious, Remittent and Intermittent Fevers, Diseases of the Blood, Liver, Kidneys and Bladder, these Bitters have been most successful. Such Diseases art caused by Vitiated Blood, wh;ch is generally produced by derange ment of the Digestive Organs.

Plii Tape* and other Wornu, lurking in the system of so many thousands, are effectually de stroyed and removed. Says a distinguished physiol ogist There is scarcely an individual upon the face of the earth whose body is exempt from the presence of worms. It is not upon the healthy elements of the body that worms exist, but upon the diseased humors and slimy deposits that breed these living monsters of disease. No system of Mediciue, no vermifuges, no anthelmm itica* will free tbs system from worms Ukt these Bit ter*. Mtehaaleal Diseases. Persons engaged in Paints and Minerals, such as Plumbers, Type-setters, Gold-beaters, and Miners, as they advance in life, will be subject to paralysis of the Bowels.

There are always more or less obstructions of the liver, a weakness and irritable state of the stomach, and great torpor of the bowels, being clogged up with vitiated accumulations. In their treat ment, a purgative, exerting a powerful influence upon these various organs, is essentially necessary. There is no cathartic for the purpose equal to Dr J. Walker's Vinrgar Bitters, as they wall speedily remove the dark-colored viscid matter with which the bowels are loaded, at the same time stimulating the secretions of the liver, and generally restoring tbs healthy functions of the digestive organs.

Dr. Walker's Call font la Ylnegmr Bit tars act on all these cases iu a similar manner. Bv purifying the Blood they remove the cause, and by resolving away the effects of the inflammation (the tubercular deposits) the affected parts receive health, and a permanent cure is effected.
