Republics ere no*—no, they are not ungrateful. Mr. Odlax responded with much feeling to tbe reception tee, He said be had been persecuted by a rnaiieiotn and vindictive prem; and he forgave a reporter of the Chicago Time* with so much genuine emotion that the crowd of Booth Bend people who bed in vited nJm fa “rad In this bosom" went bowling round M little eddies and gusts of passion, looking far somebody connected with tbe Chicago Times to breiae and laoe rate, and Dually decended In taatafimenta oe tbe bridge of the wrong mao’* note, leaving that feature in a pulpy *nd w goioeoo* state.

But North Easton knew he wae an boa eat man, and welcomed him without auk l lug whether it war murder in the degree 'or justifiable homicide he stood charged with. Human testimony against the man who owns the town and ia worth several million dollars is a thing the people of Nort h Easton will hot allow themselves to be fooled with. North Easton wae hilari ous It offered its returning slalsman not wordi and compliments alone; It fed him a substantial and bountiful repeat, until de votees and divinity hedged with satiety and glowed with emotions of gratitude and pride Then Dr. Cogswell—Doctor wheth er of medicine, law, or divinity, veterinari an or chiropodist, we blush to my we know not—welcomed the ohkf, as “that noblest work of God, an honest naan," end concluded with a sentiment to the effect that, "like gold from the crucible, he had passed the fiery ordeal and come out purer wad brighter." It wee a sentiment worthy the hour, the occasion and the hero; and of oouree Urn hue rose with one hand ia hie pocket and responded like a statesmen and financier. He had bribed nobody. He might have asked with Samuel the prophet, "Whom have I defrauded f whom hove I oppress edf dr of whose head have I received any bribe to blind mine eye* therewith r—but he didn't He was not there with conun drums. What he did any wae that he had sold SIO,OOO of stock member* of Congress and that they had lied about it, or words to that effect The ettixeus of North Eas ton were gratified beyond measure at this statement, and applauded vehemently. Afterward, distinguished speaker* from abroad among whom was Mr. Charles W. Black of the Boston Commonwealth, who has been all abioad lor some time deliver ed panegyrical* the life and character of Ht: Oakes Ames, while that gentleman sal at ihe head of the table, behind a rosebud and blushed. Thens poem wsa rend, aud the assembly broke op ih a kind of gush of good feeling Both tbe South Bend and the North Easton demonstrations show on tlie part of the people s gratefol appreciation of their representatives. There is just a taint flavor of competition between them in so far a* this, that Mouth Bend welcomed Mr. Col fax because Oakes Ames had lied abou! him ; and In this vein of |>artlal rivalry It must be confessed that, while South Bend seems to have bad longer address** and more liras* bands, North Easton is ahead by a dinner and a poem, neither of which Mr. Collax received. Possibly Mr. Ames keeps a poet. But leaving out these considerations of personal rivaliy, how gratifying it la to Ihe true American heart to see greater an h I goodness appreciated and set store by such sort of simultaneously at widely separated point* These entertainment* are highly encouraging, only it occur* to us that noth ing lias Wu done for Mr. Biooks.

When I moved to Polk County leM Spring, I noticed * great demud lor a pat ent medicine called - - * ~i UOBB’S INDIAN BITTERS, which wa* curing a graat many caeea ol diflsrent dlioasea. My wife being sfßicteil with a throat and stomach disease, I pre vailed on her to buy a bottle and it entirely cured her. This and other casea induced me to purchase the right to make and sell live medicine in this county. In putting this medicine before tbs people ot Meri wether County, I feel assured that I am not palming off a humbug and offer no lalsc Inducements; for with a lair trial and a clone adherence to the proscriptions, It will cure the worat cases of chills and lever, no matter of how long standing, and remove all the effects attending the same. It will cum Syphilis, Bcrofola, Diarrhea, Dropey Eruptions ol the Skin ; Is om of tho beat Liver Regulators now in use, and will cure Female Diseases such as Irregular Men atruatloa. Ulceration of tbe Womb, Wklte -8 welling of the legs and foot, Hick Head ache, General Weakness, Ac. These Bit ters were patented la June, 1958, end have stood the test of the teat twelve years, both Miiong lb* whites, and for an unknown number of years among the Cherokee In diana. They mV be token with Impunity under say circumstances, being composed entirely of root# aud bark*. Tliti medicine will be deposited et every public pleoe to the county. Directions are given ee the label which will aeeompaey each bottle, but If the medicine nets 100 heavily, reduce the dose, if not sufficiently, increase tha'dose. It should move the bow els once or twice a day.
