THE LIVER
INVIGORATOR,
PREPARED BY
DR. S A N D F O R D,
COMPOUNDED ENTIRELY FROM GUMS.
IS one of the best Purgative and Liver Medicine
now before the public, that acts as a Cathartic,
easier, milder, [and more effectual than any other
medicine known. It is not only a cathartic, but a
Liver Remedy, acting first on tbe Liver to eject its
morbid matter, then on the Stomach and Bowels
19 carry oft the matter, thus {accomplishing |two
purposes effec t ually, without any of the painful fee
lings experienced in theoperation of most “Ohathar
tics. It strengthens the system at the same time that
it purges it; and when taken daily in moderate do
ses, will strengthen and build up with unusual
rapidity.
The Liver is one oi the principal regula
tors ot the humanbb- ’dy; and when it per
forms itslfunctionswelJ, r the powers of the sys
tem are fully develop-(ed. Thestomachis al
most cniirely depend-JUJi ent on the healthy ac

its functions, when the stomach is at fault the
bowelsare at fault,and sWj the whole system suff
ersin consequence oitv^Aoue organ—the Llv
er— having ceased to doits duty. For the
disease of that organ, one of the proprietors
has made it his study, in apractice of more
than twenty years, tojCOjtind some remedy
wherewith to counter- j, ,! act the many derange
ments to which it;la ITl)liable.
To prove that this re- meily is at last found,
any person troubled fW! with Liver Com
plaint,in any of its fw*forms, has but to try a
bottle, and conviction 5 -(is certain.
These gums remove )rf}\ all morbid or bad mat

Army Intelligence.
The military commission, authorized by
the Secretary of War to adjust certain dit
ferences by the Quartermaster’s Depart
ment and the contractors who furnished
mules for Utah, met on the -7th at Fort
Leavenworth. Adjutant General Sherman
Lieutenant Colonel Roberts, and General
Gaines were present. The Board made
two ineffectual attempts to organize, and
its preliminary proceedings were exceed
ingly unharmonious.
The following shows the number of trains
sent out on Government account by Majors
Russel & Waddell, contractors for supply
ing the army ot Utah: From Kansas City,
fourteen trains of twenty-six wagons each
, —from Leavenworth, one hundred and five
trains of twenty six wagons each; and from
Nebraska Territory, thirty five trains of
twenty six wagons each. These trains left
previous to the 18th hist. O.her trains aie
being loaded.
A deputation of the Norfolk battalion
of volunteers Ewaited upon Gov. Floyd,
Secretary of War, at Old Point on Friday,
and invited him to go to Norfolk and re
ceive their hospitalities. The Secretary
was compelled to decline in consequence
of the pressure of his official engagements,
which demand his immediate presence in
Washington.
Blockade of Laguayra and Porto
Cabello. —The schr. Peerless, arrived at
Baltimore, brings the important intelligence
that two British steam frigates and a
French war vessel had blockaded the Ven
ezuelan ports of Laguayra and Porto Cn
bello, and seized a number of vessels in
each. This measure, says the American,
has been threatened lor sometime, but it
was scarcely believed that it would be real
ly carried out by the allied naval forces.
The difficulty has originated ostensibly
from the following circumstances: When
the recent revolution occurred in Venezuela
by which theMonagas family were deposed,
President Monagas placed himself under
the protection of the English and French.
Consuls. The successful party in Vene
zuela, disregarding this protection, seized
Monagas and proceeded to try him for va
rious high crimes, including malfeascence in
office and the corrupt appropriation of the
public funds for the purpose of enriching
hisown family and partizans. The British
and French representatives protested
against this trial as a violation of the
right of asylum, and an insult to their re
spective nations, and this protest being dis.
legarded, they have proceeded to enforce it.
It is difficult, with our present comprehen
sion of the affair, to understand upon what
ground ti e right of ihe allies to protect
Monagas is founded. lie was elected
President under the laws of the Republic,
and is rightly amenable to those laws for an
abuse of his trust. Certainly neither Eng
land nor France would attempt to enforce
such a claim against a nation sufficiently
powerful to resent their interference.
A Terrible Tornado in Ulster County
—Two Ladies Killed, One Fatally Injur
ed, and Three Children very Seriously.
—A terrible tornado recently visited the
town of Denning’ Ulster County, it began
1 at Devvittville, and took its course westward
to a place called Smithville, about live miles
distant, tearingyip trees, and leveling almost
every thing in its course. At Dewitt ville,the
house of Mr. J. Smith and that of Mr. Iloyt,
were blown down. There was no one in
the latter house at the time, Mrs. Hoyt and
her three children being on a visit at the
house of Mr. Smith. Mrs. H. was instant
ly killed, and Mrs. Smith so badly injured
that she died in five hours. A lady named
Mrs. I limbeck, who was also in the house,
was so seriously injured that her life is
dispared of. The three children ofMr.Hoyt
were also badly injured. Mr. Smith was in
this city at the time of the accident. The
tornado passed on its course toward Smith
ville, but whether any more lives were lost,
or property destroyed we are unable yet to
learn.
Encouragement.— Reverdy Johnson, of
Baltimore, lias written Judge Douglas a
letter on tlie present attitude of the can
vass in Illinois, in which he expresses the
strong hope that Douglas may succeed in
defeating his enemies. The leitcr seems
to have been spontaneous, but Douglas pub
lishes it with evident feelings of satisfaction.
It looks very much as if the little, giant is
in need of consolation and encouragement.

Escaped Jail.— Revel, who was comic
ted for murder at the last term of
Crawford Superior Court, and transferred
to Clinton Jail for safe confinement, contri
ved on Sunday morning last to open the
inside door ot his cell, where he stationed
himself until the jailor opened the front door
to present him his breakfast, at which mo
ment the prisoner presented a bowie knife
and revolver, and tumbling the Jailor
overboard, made for the swamp, where
friends with horses were waiting his arrival
and have since escorted him to parts un
known. The Jailor received no material
damage from the ungallant salute.
Clinton jail is one of the strongest in the
State, the walls, floor and ceiling, having
been erected out of heavy, solid, smooth
granite ashlers, at a cost of ten thousand
dollars.— Albany Patriot.
