VINEGAR BITTERS
J. Walkir Proprietor. K H. McDonald k Co., PreggliteonA
Gen. Ag’ ts. Son Francisco . Cal., and 3Z and 3 4 Cumaiercc St, X. V.
MILLIONS Bear Testimony to their
Wonderful Curative Effects.
They are not a vile Fancy Drink, made ot Poor
Run, Whiskey, Proof Spirits and Refuse Li
quors doctored, spiced and sweetened to please the taste,
called “Tonics,” “Appetizers.” “Restorers,” 4c., that
lead the tippler on to drunkenness and ruin, but are atrue
Modioittc, uitulc fiumbliCBalitc Ilooto autl Ileibs’of Cali-
fomia, free from nil Alcoholic Stimulants.
They are the GREAT BLOOD PURIFIER and
A LIFE GIVING PRINCIPLE, a perfect Reno
vator and Invigorator of the System, carrying off all
poisonous matter and restoring the blood to a healthy con
dition. No person can take these Bitters according to
directions and remain long unwell,provided their bones
are not destroyed by mineral poison or other means,
and the vital organs wasted beyond the point of repair.
They are a Gentle Purgative ns well as n
Tonic, possessing, nlso, the peculiar merit of acting as
a powerful agent in relieving Congestion or Inflammation
of the Liver, and all the Visceral Organs.
FOR FEMALE COMPLAINTS, in yonng’or
old, married or single, at the dawn of womanhood or at
the turn of life, these Tonic Bitters have no equal.
For InOnmmntory and Chronic Rheuma
tism and Gout, Dyspepsia or Indigestion, Bil
ious, Remittent and Intermittent IFevers,
Diseases of the Blood, Liver, Kidneys and
Blndder, these Bitters have been most successful.
Such Diseases are caused by Vitiated Blood,
which is generally produced by derangement of the Di
gestive Organs.
DYSPEPSIA OR INDIGESTION, Headache,
Rain in the Shoulders.Coughs, Tightness of the Chest.
Dizziness, Sour Eructations of the Stomach, Bad Taste
in the .Mouth, Bilious Attacks. Palpitation of the Heart,
Inflammation of the Lungs, Pain in the regions of the
Kidneys, and a hundred other paufful symptoms, are the
oflsprings of Dyspepsia.
They invigorate the Stomach and stimulate the torpid
Liver and Bowels, which render them of unequalled effi
cacy in cleansing the Mood of all impurities, and impart
ing new life and vigor to the whole system. -
FOR SKIN DISEASES, Eruptions. Tetter, Sal-
Rheum, Blotches, Spots, Pimples, Pustules, Boils, Car
buncles, King-Worms, Scald Head, Sore Eyes, Erysipelas,
Itch.Scurfs, Discolorations of the Skin, Humors and Bis.
cases of the Skin, of whatevernaroe or nature, are literally
dug up and carried out of the system in a short time by
the use ol these Bitters. One bottle in such cases will
convince the most incredulous of their curative effect*.
Cleanse the Vitiated Blood whenever you find its im
purities bursting through the skin in Pimples, Erup
tions or Sores; cleanse it when you find it obstructed and
sluggish in the veins: cleanse it when it is foul, and
your feelings will tell you when. Keep the blood pure,
and the health of the system will follow.
Pin, Tape, and other Worms, lurking in the
system of so many thousands, are effectually destroyed
and removed. Says a distinguished physiologist, 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 Medicine, no vermifuges, no anthelmintics,
will free the system from worms like these Bitters.

HALT! OR YOU ARK LOST.
On ihe 7ib of last month we wrote
from New York to the readers of the
Register, that the Democratic party,
and all the conservative men of the
country, who are in favor of over
throwing the dread power at Wash
ington, might congratulate them
selves on one accomplished result of
the Cincinnati Convention, to wit:
that it had placed the arbitrament of
the event of the Presidential Sec
tion, at least as between Grant and
Greeley, absolutely in the palm of
the bands of the Democracy. Our
opinion on that subject is still un
changed. Rut we did not write
that the Democratic party might not
open that palm and let the power
escape. What we meant then and
mean now is, that the Democratic
and Conservative party, united, held
that power. But l hat party, divided,
will be swept from the field like
chaff before (he disciplined aid mer
cenary forces of Grant. The only
thing that any man who wishes the
overthrow ol Grant can see clearly
is, that the only living power compe
tent to beat Grant, is the Democrat'
ic and Conservative parly, ^nd in
our judgment it is going to.require
their whole strength, and on the day
ol battle the absentees must all be
called in, and the very hospitals
emptied lor special and critical du
ty. What, then, is the key of the
situation? Absolute Democratic in
tegrity. Is it to be the policy to
unite forces with the Liberal Repub
licans, and elect Horace Greeley?
Horace Greeley will tell you that it
will take the last man of you to do
it. We do not now propose to dis
cuss what should be the policy of the
Democratic party, but we wish to
make the fact prominent that unless
the parly acts a unit, it is of no sort
ot consequence what its policy may
be. It might as well disbaqd, retire
to its lent, and leave the country
and its destinies to fate unless* it
brings its whole force io bear upon
whatever policy it may agree upon.
When, therefore, an intelligent man
says, in the fervor of his prejudices,
that’I signed the call lor the Gree
ley meeting, in this city, on the 10th
inst., because 1 believe it is a step to
break up the Democracy, he said,

merit, wherever begun, and with
whatever motives or expectations,
that is calculated to impair the in
tegrity of the Democratic party, is a
direct movement toward the election

Ancient and Modern Wealth.
Some one having been telling of
M. Loder, in London, who died
lately, leaving the enormous fortune
of $75,000,000, and of the gorgeous
monument of the Rhode Island
Spragues, which is to cost $100,000,
and ot the wondrous wealth and
prolusion of Tweed and Stewart,
the ‘Richmond Enquirer’ tells us
how people had big fortunes and
built line houses, and gave dinners
and drank fine wines, and spent in
oilier ways in the old lime*, ere Lo
der was, or Stewart named. Thus
it is that the Enquirer takes the shive
out of the nineteenth century:
Why, what is Tweed, or Stewart,
or Mr. Loder, or Belmont, or the
Rothschilds, or the Marquisof West
minster, to Rtolemy Philadelphus, of
Egypt, who amassed a little proper
ty of $350,000,000 ? And which of
our extravagaut young ladies of
these boasted times ever give her
lover, as Cleopatra did, a pearl dis
solved in vinegar, (or uudissolved)
worth $400,000? That’s half the ex
penses of Miss Tweed’s wedding at
a dash, and would drew? one of our
Baltimore and Washingon belles for
forty years. Then there was Pauli
na, one of the ion in Rone, who used
to wear jewels, when she returned
her visits, worth $800,000. Well,
they boast of Mr. Stewart’s “marble
palace” in Thirty-fourth Street and
Filth Avenue. We do not suppose
this house, which is abott the best
they have in New York, cost more
than half a million dollars. Well,
Cicero, who was a poor man, gave
$150,000 lor his house, and Claudi
us paid $650,000 for bis establish
ment on the Palatian; while Megsa-
la gave $2,000,000 for the house of
$40,000 for a single dish. Caligula
spent $400,000 on a supper. Their
wines were often kept for two ages,
and some of them sold tor $20 an
ounce. They roasted hogs while at
their banquets. They were fond of
rain's bead pie, an l pastry stuffed
with raisins an I nuts. Disle-s were
made ol gold and silver, set with
precious stones. The beds of Ht -
liogabulus were of solid silver, bis
table and plates were of pure gold,,
and his mattresses, cover* tl with'
carpets of cloth of gold, weie stuffed
with down from under the wings ol
the partridge.
It took $80,000 a year to keep up
the dignity of a Roman Senator,
and some of them spent $5,000,000
a year.
Cicero and Pomoev -Mrnrmeri in”
one day on Lucullus—nobody at
home but the family—and that fam
ily dinner cost 4,000 pounds.
Cure for the Bite of a Mad Dog.—
A lady friend, about 90 years ol age,
sends the following to the American
Farmer for publication:
Immediately after being bitten,
take l~o*. .of the root of Elecam
pane } the green root is perhaps
preferable, hut the dried will answer,
and may be found ip the drug stores;
the ialler was used by the author of
the receipt—slice or bruise the root,
put into a pint fresh milk, boil down
—fasting at least six hours after
ward. The next morning repeat
tne dose, fasting, using 2 oz. of lire
root. On the third morning take
another dose, prepared as the last,
and this will be sufficient. It is re
commended that after each dose
nothing be eaten for at least six
hours. It is supposed that the root
contains a principle which, being
taken up by the blood in its circula
tion, counteracts or neutralizes the
deadly effects ol the virus of hydro-
poobia.
TjMr. F. Dyer, a farmer ol Galena,
Kent co. f Md., had a son who was
bitten by a mad dog IS years ago,
and four other children in the neigh
borhood were bitten; they look the
above dose, and are alive and well
to this day, and be has known a
number ot others who were bitten
and applied the same remedy,
Gentleman says: “It any of your
readers are troubled with lice on
cattle, tell them to try brine. It it
the easiest and surest remedy 1 ever
used. My hogs I found covered
with ticks this summer, something I
never heard of before, and salt water
twice applied cleared them.”
Apple Tree Borer.—They en
ter uear the ground and their holes
may be detected from the sawdust
like substance that oozes from them.
Thrust a piece of wire in the holes
and in a short time you will relieve
the tree of its enemy.
Home-made Disinfectant.—A
good home-made disinfectant is pro
duced by dissolving a bushel of salt
in a barrel of water, and with the
salt water slack'a barrel of lime,
which should be wet enough to form
a kind of paste. For the purposes
of a disinfectant, this home made
chloride of lime is nearly as good as
that purchased at the shops and
drug stores.' Use it freely about
sinks, cellars, gutters, and o it-hous-
es, and in this way prevent sickness,
suffering and expense.
Voorhees.—Here is the last an
ecdote about Voorhees:
Voorhees was sitting in his place
the other day when a carpet-bagger,
named Clark, of Galveston, Texas,
who was born and resident in Con-
necticut, came up to him and said:
“Mr. Voorhees, 1 must congratu
late you *nd .manly
speech. It gave our side universal
satisfaction.”
When the man had turned away,
Voorhees said, with a long oath,
“Great God ! there must have been
something wrong in that speech if
that scoundrelly carpet-bagger sees
anything In it to praise.”

plain philosopher like Mr. Greely,
was worth $120,000,000. Tiberius
left a properly of nearly $120,000,-
000. Why, they talk about a man’s
failing in New York for a million, as
it it was a big thing, Ctasar, before
he entered on any office—when be
was a young gentleman in private
life—owed $14,000,000, and he pur
chased the friendship of Quasor for
$2,500,000 on the Ides of March, and
he paid it before the Kalends of
March. This was nothing—he squan
dered $72,000,000 of the public
money. Maj. Hodge’s defalcation

$450,000. r/ 5
And these fellows lived well. Eso-
Kanaehnsetts and South Carolina at
PKladelpHt.
Takeihe South Carolina delegates
for example. Their cas* is perhaps
the worst, but there are others not
much better. What do they repre
sent ? The most viIl;iinous govern
ment ever seen in a free Chiisti.in
common wealth, a government which
is only a synonym for scientific
scountlielisiD and organized pillage.
A tew unscrupulous and avaricious
adventurers have temporarily con
fiscated a Slate of the American Un
ion io their private use and emolu
ment. They have found a few native
born rascals as unscrupulous is
themselves, and taken them into
their partnership. They have secured
the ignorant negroes by a system oi
skillful y appealing t*> their resent
ments and fears—in which the Ku
Klux insanity lias, of course, tieen of
invaluable assistance to (hern ; by
the magic of the Republican name,
and by dividing office and plunder
with ihtir leaders, always reserving
for themselves, however, the lion's
share. The history of their shameful
rule is known to the American peo
ple. Yet these fellows call themselves
Republicans, hold up their beads
with the best, and cheer for Grant
with the loudest. They come into
ihe National Convention, their hands
reeking from corrupt jobs, their
pockets heavy with s'olen money,
and sit down on equal terms with
the representatives of Massachusetts.
They are quite right in regarding
Greeley’s election as “ something
disastrous.” It would be an irre
parable disaster to them, as for that
matter, would be the election oi
Adams or Groesbeck, or almost any
one who has been named—except
Grant. It would be a formal notice
to quit; a warning that their time
was up; in fact, it would be rainy
day come in very truth. No wonder
that they are for Grant ‘ enthusias
tically” They have good reasons
to lie.—Springfield Republican.
This is a vivid and litelike picture
of carpet-bag rapine in the South,
and an awtui prefiguratiun of the
fate which awaits the obscene crew
on the advent of Greeley.

Having successlully'cpmpeted w ith
the whole world in producing an ar
ticle of long staple cotton, attention
is now turned to sugar, and boiling-
houses have been constructed on a
gigantic scale to facilitate growers.
The crop of this latter article is
steadily increasing, and as affording
an idea of its present magnitude it
may be mentioned that the Viceroy
has engaged to furnish Italian and
French houses twenty-eight thou
sand tons this season.—Sav. Rep.
Senator Thurman.—A. short time
since the New York World stated
that Senator Thurman was utterly
opposed to Greeley’s endorsement,
and that as there was no other State
where his nomination at Cincinnati
roused such disgust and scorn, his
endorsement at Baltimore would
certainly insure Ohio for Grant. To
this the Ohio Statesman replies:
“ With two-thirds of the voters of
the Democratic parly in this State
eager for the endorsement of the
Cincinnati ticket by the Baltimore
Convention, and three-fourths of the
^tb*»r third pledged to give it a hearty
support if so euuui»co, —-■
fourths of the newspapers and prom
inent men out-spoken in its favor,
while the remainder are non-com
mittal, we are at a loss to see jun
where much repugnance, disgust
and scorn is to come from in Ohio.
That Senator Thurman favors the
support of Greeley and Brown by
the Democratic party is a fact so
well known that the formal contra--
diction of the World’s statement is
un necessary«

“ The supplemental article to the

that the Administration now be-

II not one other instance of ridicu

ot the Grant Administration, this one
act is enough to consign it to con
tempt in the estimation of the world.
Giant knew as well as did the Eng
lish Premier, Mr. Gladstone-, when
be made the demand tor “conse

ate, he did even dare to consult
their judgment in the premises of
tine i«u&ta IJ*»» 1 L • .
with Bull-dogism (naturally, for he
is kuown to be a fancier of his breed)
so presumptuous grown by the long
practice of dogmatic dictation over
the South, that he dared, after con
sultation with two ot Iii3 chosen
counsellors, to offer his insult to the
proud old English Calfluet. But lo !
what a rebuke does he meet! Baf
fled by the lordly John Bull, he pro
posed a supplemental article to the
treaty, providing that if the United
States withdraw this claim for
“consequential damages,” John
Bull obligates that in any future case
of the kind, in which the position
should be reversed, England will
in ike no demand of the United
Slates for consequential damages.
If the claim made by Grant against
England was wrong, it plainly con
firms his character as a dangerous
usurper or a tool. If it was right, it
is a cowardly back down on the
part of the Administration. It is a
dilemma with two horns, but either
one pierces with infamy.

Age of Cows.—A cow’s age may

horns are the surest method. Count
the rings around the horn and add
to this number three years, which is
the lapse of lime before any rings
make their appearance.
Covering Manure.—It has been
thoroughly tested and found that
one load of manure kept from the
open air under cover is worth two
loads that have been exposed to rain

Danger from Wet Ctbihes.—Few
persons understand fully the reason
why wet clothes exert such a chilling
influence. It is simply this : Water,
when it evaporates, carries off an
enormous amount of beat, in what
is called the latent form. One pound
of water in vapor contains as much
heat as nine-or ten pounds of liquid
water, and all this heat must, o!
course, be taken from the body. If
our clothes are moistened with three
pounds of water: that is, if, by wet
ting, they are rendered three pounds
heavier, these three pounds will, in
drying, carry off as much heat as
would raise three gallons of
cold water to the boiling point.

The New Orleans Tiroes has re
ceived from a friend at Wasliington,
a brief history of the sales of cotton
seized at various points in the South
ern Slates, near and afier the close
of the war, by the Fdoeral authori
ties. With reference to that seized
at Savannah, this statement shows
that 2,034,673 pounds of sea island
cotton, worth at the time—24th of
December, 1864—$2 50 per pound,
was reported as sold for $1,657,231,-
77 when it was worth $5,111,682 50
—showing an unexplained loss to
the government of $4,454 93. For
the upland cotton seized at Savan
nah—16.034,415 pounds—worth
from $1 to $1 24 per pound, the gov
ernment received only $6,418,600-
36 showing an unexplained loss of
$9,G55,S14 64, the real value being
ul the above minimum rale per
pound, S16.034,415. Who pocket
ed ihe difference is not known ex
actly, but it went into, of course,
loyal pockets, aud enabled the loyat
robbers to set up as milionaires and
divert attention from their thefts by
howling for blood and confiscation
against “rebels” and traitors.
