Dr. J. Walker’s California Vin
egar Bitters are a purely Vegetable
preparation, made chiefly from the native
herbs found on the lower ranges of the Sier
ra Nevada mountains of California, the
medicinal properties of which are extract
ed therefrom without the use of Alcohol.
Tho question is almost dailyasked, ‘‘What
is the cause of the unparalleled success of
Vetegab Bittebs?’’ Our answer is, that
they remove the cause of disease, and tha
patient recovers his health. They are the
great blood purifier and a life-giving prin
ciple, a perfect Renovator and Invigcrator
of the system. Never before in the history
of the world has a medicine been com
pounded possessing the remarkable qual
ities of Vinegar Bitters in healingthe sick
of every disease man is heir to. They are a
gentle Purgative as well as a Tonic, reliev
ing Congestion or Inflammation of the
Liver and Visceral Organs, in Bilious Dis
eases.
If men will enjoy good health, let
them use Vinegar Bitters as a medicine,
and avoid the use of alcoholic stimulants
•n every form.
No Person can take these Bitters
according to directions, and remain long
unwell, provided their bones are not de
stroyed by mineral poison or other means,
and vital organs wasted beyond repair.
Grateful Thousands proclaim Vine
gar Bitters the most wonderful Invigor-
ant that ever sustained the sinking system.
Bilions, Remittent, ami Inter
mittent Fevers, -which are so prevalent
in the valleys of our great rivers through
out the United States, especially those of
the Mississippi, Ohio, Missouri, Illinois,
Tennessee, Cumberland, Arkansas, Bed,
Colorado, Brazos, Bio Grande, Pearl, Ala
bama, Mobile, Savannah, Boanokc, James,
and many others, with their vast tribu
taries, throughout our entire country dur
ing the Summer and Autumn, and remark
ably so during seasons of unusual heat and
dryness, are invariably accompanied by ex
tensive derangements of the stomach and
liver, and other abdominal viscera. In their
treatment, a purgative, exerting a powerful
influence upon these various organs, is
essentially necessary. There is no cathar
tic for the purpose equal to Dr. J. Walker's
Vinegar Bitters, as they will speedily re
move the dark-colored viscid matter with
which the bowels are loaded, at the same ■
time stimulating the secretions of the
liver, and generally restoring the healthy
functions of the digestive organs.
Dyspepsia or Indigestion, Head
ache,Pain in the Shoulders,Coughs,Tight
ness of the Chest, Dizziness, Sour Eructa
tions of the Stomach, Bad Taste in the
Mouth, Bilious Attacks, Palpitation of the
Heart, Inflammation of the Lungs, Pain
in the region of the Kidneys, and a hun
dred other painful symptoms, are the off
springs cf Dyspepsia. One bottle will
prove a better guarantee of its merits than
a lengthy advertisement.
Scrofula, or King’s Evil, White
Swellings, Ulcers, Erysipelas, Swelled
Neck, Goitre, Scrofulous Inflammations,
Indolent Inflammations, Mercurial Affec
tions, Old Sores, Eruptions of the Skin,
Sore Eyes, etc., etc. In these, as in all
other constitutional Diseases, Walker’s
Vinegar Bitters have shown tlicir great
curative powers in the most obstinate and
intractable cases.
For Inflammatory and Chronic
Rheumatism, Gout, Bilious, Remittent
and Intermittent Fevers, Diseases of the
Blood, Liver, Kidneys, and Bladder, tlic^e
Bitters have no equal. Such Diseases are
caused by Vitiated Blood.
Mechanical Diseases.— Persons en
gaged in Paints and Minerals, such as
Plumbers, Type-setters, Gold-beaters, and
Miners, as they advance in life, are sub
ject to paralysis of the Bowels. To guard
against this, take a dose of W alker 3
Vinegar Bitters occasionally.
For Skin Diseases, Eruptions,Tetter,
Salt Bheum, Blotches, Spots, Pimples,
Pustules, Boils, Carbuncles, Bingworms,
Scald Head, Sore Eyes, Erysipelas, Itch,
Scurfs, Discolorations of the Skin, Humors
and Diseases of the Skin of whatever name
or nature, are literally dug up and carried
out of the system in a short time by the
use of these Bitters.
Pin, Tape, and other Worms, lurk
ing in the system of so many thousands, are
effectually destroyed and removed. No
system of medicine, no vermifuges, no
anthelminitics, will free the system from
worms like these Bitters.
For Female Complaints, in young
or old, married or single, at the dawn of
womanhood or the turn of life, these Tonic
Bitters display so decided an influence
that improvement is soon perceptible.
Janndice.—In all cases of jaundice,
rest assured that your liver is not doing its
work. The only sensible treatment is to
promote the secretion of the bile and
favor its removal. For this purpose use
Vinegar Bitters.
Cleanse the Vitiated Blood when
ever you find its impurities bursting
through the skin in Pimples, Eruptions,
or Sores; cleanse it when you find it ob
structed and sluggish in the veins; cleanse
it when it is foul; your feelings will tell
you when. Keep the blood pure, and the
health of the system will follow,

The following is an extract from a de
cision of the Supreme Court of Pennsyl
vania in a case where a negro brought
suit to recover damages of a railroad
company for refitting to permit him to
ride in a car especially assigned to whites,
a good car being provided for blacks.
The volume of Reports in which the case
is published cannot be seen outside of ex
tensive libraries, but the case is noticed
in 2 Am. Law Rev., 358:
“The right to separate being clear in
proper cases, and it being the subject of
sound regulation, the question remaining
to be considered is, whether there is such
a difference between the white and black
races within this State, resulting from
nature, law and custom, as makes it a rea
sonable ground of separation. The ques
tion is one of difference, not of superior
ity. Why the Creator made one black
and the other white we do not know, but
the fact is apparent and the races are dis
tinct, each producing its own kind and
following the peculiar law of its constitu
tion. ,
Conceding equality, with natures as
perfect and rights as sacred, yet God has
made them dissimilar, with those natural
feelings and instincts which He always
imparts tp His creatures when He in
tends that they shall not • overstep the
natural boundaries he has assigned them.
Ihe natural law which forbids their in
termarriage and that social amalgama
tion which leads to a corruption of races
is as clearly divine as that which impart
ed to them different natures.
The tendency of intimate social inter
mixture is to amalgamation, contrary to
the law of racee. The separation of the
white and black races upon the snrface of
the globe is & fact equally apparent. Why
this is so it is not necessary to speculate,
but the fact of a disruption of men by
race and color is as visible in the provi
dential arrangement of the earth as that
of heat and cold. The natural separation
of the races is, therefore, an undeniable
fact, and all social organizations which
lead to their amalgamation are repug
nant to the law of nature.
From social amalgamation, it is but a
step to illicit intercourse, and but another
to intermarriage. But to assert sepa
rateness is not to declare inferiority in
either; it is not to declare one a slave
and the other a freeman; that would be
to draw the illogical sequence of inferior
ity from difference only. It is simply to
say that, following the order of Divine
Providence, human authority ought not
to compel these widely separate races to
intermix. The right of each to be free
from social contact is as clear as to be
free from intermarriage. The former
may be less repulsive as a condition, but
not less entitled to protection as a right.
W hen, therefore, we declare a right to
maintain separate relations as far as rea
sonably practicable, but in a spirit of
kindness and charity, and with dne re
gard to equality of rights, it is not pre
judice, nor caste, nor injustice of any
kind, but simply to suffer men to follow
the law of races established by the Crea
tor himself and not compel them to in
termix contrary to their instincts.”

July 8th, 1874.
—A Hartford man was drowned, and
friends brought home the dead body to
his afflicted wife. As they came to the
front door with the corpse the new-made
widow appeared and sadly remarked: “I
guess you had better take him around to
the back door, so he won’t drip on the
parlor carpets!”
—“Missus Snowdrop,” said a gentle
man of color the other afternoon during
a shower, to a lady of his acquaintance,
as de wedder is somewhat amphibious,

you, Mr. Rillups, I will. In dis wedder
and umbreller is rather cosmopolitan.”
The Rev. Harding cautions his readers
against drinking vinegar to reduce corpu

the digestive powers of the stomach. He
recommends red-eyed labor as a healthful
substitute.
—Baron Anselm de Rothschild, who
died recently at his country seat, near
Vienna, possessed wealth estimated at
more than $200,000,000. By his express
desire his funeral was celebrated without
any pomp. The hearse was drawn by two
horses, and followed only by a few ser
vants.
—A little girl remarked to her mam
ma, “I am not afraid of the dark.” “No,
of course you are not,” replied her mam
ma. “I was a little afraid once when I
went into the pantry to get atari” “What
weie yon afraid of?” asked tho mamma.
I was afraid I could not find the tarts.”
—A somewhat important decision has
been rendered by the the United States
district court of Wisconsin, to the effect
that a national bank cannot be sued in
the federal courts outside of the district
where it is located, and that service on
the cashier when within another district
does not give jurisdiction.
—Mr. Alfred Organ, of Sumpter, Wis
consin, has an acre of teasles that arc
now in the burr, and are looking remark
ably fine. Teasles are extensively used
in woolen factories for raising tbe nap on
cloth, and owing to the small production
of them in this country the market is sel

the west

this time met the second highest officer
of the late Confederacy and, perhaps, the
foremost man of the present Southern
States. I refer to Honorable Alexander
H. Stephens. Around him now is the
halo of the hustings, the incense of thou<
sands of his old and new constituents, and
something of the interest which in for
mer days attached to Congressional con
tests.
He entered the cars at Crawfordville,
his home, sprightlier, stronger and more
like his old self (albeit he still moves
bout on cratches) than he has appeared
for many months. It was pleasant to
see the greetings bestowed upon him by
the people—the respectful curiosity of
the young and the warm-hearted saluta
tions of those with many of whom he had
associated in his own youth. The object
of his journey was to attend court at this
place, not to make an address, but mere
ly to enjoy social intercourse, with the
hundreds who are assembled from var
ious portions of the county. How much
Mr. Stephens is identified with this lo
cality may be inferred from the statement
that, with the exception of the last six
years, he has not, since 1836, missed at
tendance upon one or the other of the
semi-annual courts at this place.
After obtaining Mr. Stephens’ opinion
concerning the recent disturbance in New
Orleans, which has already been given in
full in the Constitutionalist, in his
Greenesboro speech, the correspondent
asked:
“Have you had occasion in the light of
recent events to change your frequently
expressed views with reference to
THE SUBJECT OF RECONSTRUCTION?”
“I have not, sir; principles never change,
and there are very few opinions that I
have formed in my life upon principle
that I have had occasion to change; but
that is a subject too big forarailroad talk.
Pardon me for Baying that I never liked
the word ‘reconstruction.’ It is a verbal
monster when applied to our federal sys
tem of government, either before or after
the war. The only reconstruction to that
system, in the proper sense of the word,
would have been by a convention of all
of the States. ‘Restoration’ was the pro
per word after secession had been aban
doned. The North fought the war a-
vowedly to ‘restore’ the Union of the
States, as it existed before the withdraw
al or secession of the Southern members.
After the surrender of the Southern arms
there was but one thing left for the Nor-,
them States to do for a perfect restora
tion of the Union, and that was to admit
Southern Senators and members in the
halls of Congress to their seats, which
Mr. Seward assured them were waiting
for them. But instead of this a dictation
of terms followed, among the require
ments of which was the adoption of the
fourteen and fifteenth amendments.
THE FIFTEENTH AMENDMENT.
The latter amounts to nothing but a
pronibition upon the States severally in
their high and original civil right of reg
ulating the franchise not to discriminate
against any on account of race, color or
previous condition of servitude. It grants
or confers no right to anybody on earth,
either white or black. It simply provides
that in granting suffrage the States respec
tively shall not discriminate as stated.
The great fountain head, the sovereign
right of regnlating,-Btill remains witK the
States, as it did before, and I believe the
Supreme Judiciary of the land will so de
clare if the case ever comes before them.

Unfortunately our people are too little
inclined to use the instrumentalities of
the law in the decision of these higher
constitutional questions. They fold their
hands in quiet despair, borrow their
hopes from newspapers and base their
faith on leaders who mislead that they
may be rewarded at the public ex
pense.”
But what is the remedy for all this,
Mr. Stephens?”
Remedy! The simplest in the world
—nothing but a return to first principles.
There never will be peace and perfect
prosperity in this country until the ad
ministration of the Federal Government
is based upon the principles of home rale
on the part of the people as recognized
and established by their fathers. The
elements of a strong, free government be
long to the masses. They must have the
intelligence to understand, the virtue to
be true and the patriotism to defend.
THE CIVIL RIGHTS BILL.
; A word or two from you concerning
the Civil Rights bill?”
That is the great question just now.
It is most mischievous in its tendencies,
and is calculated to arouse antipathies be
tween the races. My greatest objection
to it politically is the monstrous assump
tion of centralization of powers which it
bears upon its front. I do not think for
a moment that the Supreme Court of the
United States would ever concede that
most obnoxious feature of it which refers
to mixed schools, for it is objectionable
in the highest degree. In this State I do
think anything would come of it, because
we have already amply provided or the
education of the colored people, and they
are satisfied with separate schools and a
good system. In other States serious
trouble may occur from the pressure of
the blacks upon the whites, which will
naturally produce mobs, inflame the public
and lead to more disastrous conse
quences.
“I observe,” added Mr. Stephens after
his last remark, “that yon are taking notes
like a professional interviewer, but 1 hope
not for publication. I knew you were
connected with the press, but I was not
speaking at all for the public. I have
spoken to you conversationally and with
the frankness of an old acquaintance, and
should regret to be misinterpreted either
by yourself or the public. What I have
said, however, with the exception of my
comments on the Louisiana situation—
about which I can express no judgment
in the absence of facts—is the results of
earnest conviction. Time has produced
no change in my principles, and time
will vindicate their truth.”
A SCORE OF HANDS,
at this juncture, were reaching to assist
Mr. Stephens from the cars, which had
now reached Greenesborough; but he
declined all save the assistance of his
faithful colored man, “Harry Stephens,”
the major domo of Liberty Hall, who, for
nearly thirty years, lias been his con
stant attendant In a few moments the
party readied the hotel, where hundreds
ofboth races had congregated to look
once more upon “the old man eloquent”

the wonderful magnetic influence which
Next after the comet, says a Washing
ton correspondent of the New York
Graphic, the topic of continuing interest
at tbe seat of Government is the name of
the coming dispenser of patronage and
source of power.
The talk and the facts concerning
this exhaustless subject are about
these:
Speaker Blaine is the candidate whoso
friends are doing' the most hard work,
and about whose candidacy the most is
said. His strong points are his success
and sagacity as a politician, his unsur
passable tact and ability as a presiding
officer, his well-nursed popularity with
the House, his effectiveness as a political
speaker, shown by his annihilating way
of dealing with adversaries, his youth and
physical vigor, and lastly, his carefully
cultivated and very cordial relations with
his brethren of the press.
On the other hand it is said that Blaine
has no salient points in his record over
which to arouse a nation’s enthusiasm,
that he has done nothing great, that there
is no act or speech which the popular
heart ean seize hold of, that he lacks sol*,
id intellectual strength, that he is a little
tricky and something of a trimmer, aud
that he has no convictions which he would
not abandon upon a sufficiently general re
quest It is also said that at all times
since he became Speaker his aspirations
have been ill-concealed, and that he has
of late exhibited partiality in recognizing
and giving the floor to Maine members
and Southern members, whom he desires
to conciliate and please. The Speaker
has been “setting up things” during the
last session through friendly members
and approaches with winning ways those
who are coy.
Senator Thurman is the Presidential
candidate most talked of in the Upper
Branch of Congress. His political friends
claim for him the leadership of their par
ty in the Senate and in the Nation, that
he is a statesman of large views and a
lawyer of profound learning, that his
sense of honor and integrity are lofty,
that he is an elegant gentleman of the old
school—one of the very few who would
add dignity to the office of Chief
trate.
The objections urged to Thurman
are that he belongs to the wrong school
in politics—to the State Supremacy
school of Jefferson, Calhoun and
der H. Stephens, rather than to the *4
tional School of Hamilton, Marshal
Webster and Story. It is also alleged'
that his private utterance during the —
were savagely denunciatory of the
ods employed in prosecuting the war, and
that these repeated declarations would be
used against him should he be a candidate.
Others urge as an objection that Judge
Thurman is too cold in manner, that he
“freezes people,” that he is so high-toned
that he will not come down from the
clouds and seek the Presidency. It is
quite certain that Thurman is doing
nothing in the world to secure a nomina
tion, and does not admit his candidacy or
discuss his prospects with his most inti
mate friends.
Gen. Sherman undoutedly meant what
he said when he wrote to the New York
Herald some years ago that he would
not serve if elected President of the Uni
ted States. If left alone he would not
seek any office. But he has an ambitious
family. His daughters, of whom two
are developing and two have developed
into womanhood, would doubtless pre
fer the Executive Mansion to any man
sion or mansions-not in the skies. Mrs.
Sherman, the noblest of women, would
be grateful for a wider sphere in which to
teach and practice the precepts of her
beautiful religion. Misunderstandings
with tue Secretary of War render the
official life of Gen. Sherman in Washing
ton distasteful to him. Then his relations
with Gen. Grant have not been cordial
since he declined to give Col. Fred. Grant
place upon his staff But Slierman
sells his house here aud goes to St Louis
that he may be brought forwerd as tha
Presidential candidate of the Great West!
Sherman’s strong points are declared to
bo his availability growing out of his
immpnafl personal popularity and the
relations his family sustain to the Catho
lic church. Not being a Roman Catholic
himself he would lose no votes on reli>
gious grounds, while the zeal and activity
of the church in his behalf wonld be quick
ened because of the well-known devotion
of his family to the interests of their reli
gion. It is claimed also by some that
Sherman is a man of learning, originality
and statesmanlike grasp of mind, as well
as the most brilliant military leader de
veloped by the war. But how can such
an impulsive, uncontrollable, meteoric
man get a party nomination? Well, ho
will be the first choice of few; but tho
question that the Republicans will be
forced to consider is availability. That
determined Grant's selection, and may
determine Sherman’s. The iatters Re
publicanism is now better established
than was Grant’s when he was nomina
ted.
E. B. Washburae, our minister to Paris,
is said by a few to be the coming man.
In the general protest and universal up
rising against extravagance and corrup
tion, it is claimed that the old watch-dog
of the Treasury—Washbume—best rep
resents those principles abont which the
people feel most alive, namely, honesty
and economy. Having been out of tho
country during perilous times to politi
cians, his garments bear no stains or
scratches. It is not unlikely he may be
the candidate of the newspaper syndicate,
as Mr. Hoisted is now in Paris. But
Washburne’s greatest strength is the
personal partiality of Grant, and his
greatest weakness lies in the belief that he
barely escapes being an illiterate man
and foil" below in mental stature the ideal
chief magistrate.
Gov. Hendricks, of Indiana, has warm
ly attached friends. He has great per
sonal magnetism and is claimed to be
honest, able, and available. He has been
reticent and discreel His friends hope
to profit by the bitter war waged against
Thurman by the inflationists of Ohio,
through whom it is expected the vote of
Ohio will be divided in the Nominating
Convention.
