city reports were all copied into a title book,
and then forwarded to New York. A book, call
ed the black book, was kept, in which all nn-
favprablo reports wore copied. Everyone in
the office had access to this book. He testified
that Bradstreet’s Agency was partial to the
subscribers, and that a goldheaded cane would
often raise a man's rating. Plaintiff had been
reduced from rating of O. C. 1). D., a very
high rating, to D. E., which meant ho was do

Sr. Louis, Only 22.—The hearing in the case
of Meliier against the Bradstreet Commercial
Agency continues. Meliier introduced farther
testimony as to his solvency, and stated that
the report published in the J uly number of the
Agency's report had injured his standing. J.
H. Eames testified that he had been sent for by
Mr. Shepard, superintendent of the Agency, and
told by him that he (Eames) could have good
rating if he would pay for banting up the evi
dence of his credit. This would cost from $250
to $500. Eames -refused the offer. Shepard
was then placed on the stand and flatly con
tradicted the statement of Eames, and said
Eames offered him money for a favorable rating;
that he (witness) told him he ought to be kicked
out of the office for making such an offer. He
never received presents, and money considera
tions had no influence with him. King, whose
testimony was reported yesterday, had been
discharged for making an incorrect report,
falsifying the index, and general disobedience
of orders. King had threatened to injure the
firm, and assanlted witness with brass knuckles.
The rating of Meliier was based on information
received from men who are regarded ■'as well
versed in trade and business, and who stated
Mellier’s assets and liabilities so nearly equal
as to justify witness in rating him to be trusted
with caution. The case excites muoh interest.

The Bugler.
BY GEORGE H. SNYDER.
I dream of one who lies '
Beneath Kentucky skies,
Until with tears my eyss are overflowing,
And I seem to hear a sound
From a bloody blattle-gronnd.
Where liee a little mound with grass o’er growing.
Again I hear the crash
Ot cannon, And tho daeh
Of cavalry that flash across the valley;
Bat wilder sound than all,
Beneath the smoky pall
8hrills out the bugle call of ‘‘Troopers, rally!”
Adown the rooky hill
They gallop with a will,
The bugle blowing shrill a cheery measure,
Their chargers all a row, -
Flags flaunting to and fro,
■ Sight on to death they go, as if for pleasure.
8hup rings the whitting steel, - ~t~
While cannon thunders peal—
A shout goes up, “They reel, in yonder hollow 1”
And lo! with cheer on cheer,
tZ- They drive them far and near,
The flying winged with fear of those who follow.
Why does the bugle blow
Noloudrecall? Nonote
Of triumph that the foe, dismayed, is flying ?
A1»e! our bugler lay
Where raged the hottest fray
Upon that evil day, '’niid dead and dying. ; ;'Z'
. We laid him down to rest,
Brave heart! where earth had drest
A tree plumed hillock’s crest with floral beauty;
Ah! never truer sonl
Than his sped to his goal,
Whose legend marked our roll, “Slain at his daty.”
. A Benevolent Oddity.
The following aneodote is related of the late
L. M. Sargent, of Boston;
Not long since, before Mr. Sargent’s decease,
in looking over and adjusting his papers, he
found a large numher of debts and notes due
him by poor men, prineipaUy fishermen. He
tied them up in a bundle, and on the label wrote
this memorandum: .“Notes, due-bills and ac
counts against sundry persons along shore.
Some of them may be got by suit or severe dun
ning ; but the people are poor; most of them
have had fishermen’s lnok. My children wiU
do as they think best. Perhaps they will think
with me, that it is best to bum the package en
tire.” .
About a month after the deoease the sons met
in the counting room, of the elder brother, who
administered on the estate. He produced this
package, read the in-oriptionand inquired what
should be done with it. The next oldest brother,
with tears in his eyes, pointed to the fire, and
they all agreed to it; bat it, was thought best
to make a schedule of the names, amounts and
dates, so as hereafter to know who were for
given, if any oame to pay. It was done, and
the package, labeUed at $30,000, was oast into
the fire.
About four months after tins, in the month
of Jane, a hard-faced old man from the Cape
came to the store to pay a debt due. the de
ceased. He took a chair, and looking over a
time-worn pocket-book, drew .oat a bunch of
bank bills to pay the debt. On learninjg his
name; date, and amount, -viz., $440, the first
Btep was to examine the list of burnt notes, and
there was his name, debt, and date ot very
many years ago, which with interest, if pre
served, would amount to $800. The adminis
trator told him the fact and made him put back
his money; which he did with ©yes brimful of
tears, for he Bald “his old dame had sold the
only cow to. supply what was wanting in his
hands to pay this debt, and what glad news it
would be to her when he went home.”
Tlio Great Liverpool Bocks.
Liverpool is situated just within the month
of the river Mersey, o deep and navigable
stream, which has, opposite the city, an average
width of about 3,900 feet, and a depth varying
from 18 to 60 feet at low water; the rise and
fall of the tide is from 18 to 33 feet. The river-
wall, within whioh the docks aro looated, occu
pying about five miles in longth of the bank of
the Mersey.
The great variations in the tido render it im
possible to load and unload vessels advantage
ously abreast of ordinary quay or piors in the
Mersey; the somewhat exposed anchorage is
too limited for the great number of vessels that
frequent the port, and, were it large enough,
the hca-
iOBCBQg
been fouadHHI^^^H |
is, then, but one system applicable to such
port—that of enclosed wet-docks with
entrance gates. This system has been very
admirably carried out in Liverpool. Commenced
in 1709, the dookshave at thi3time attained
colossal proportions. Omitting the Birkenhead
docks and other additions since 1854, they cover
CIO acres from thoshore of the Mersey between
high and low water marks; the river wall pro
jects from 500 to 1200 feet beyond the original
shore line ; the length of qnav frontage within
the'docks is 14 miles and 119 yards. The docks
are bounded on the river side by a waU 30 to 50
feet high, with an aggregate length of nearly
five miles. As a rule, no warehouses surround
these docks, only landing sheds.
The time for entering and departing from
these dooka is limited to from two and a half to
three honrs each tide, and as the sills of the
dock are above low water, there aro more than
one hundred days in the year when vessels
drawing more than eighteen feet cannot enter
them, and many days when only sixteen feet
can be carried throngh it. A good deal of diffi
culty is experienced in keeping these docks free
from mud and silt.
G. A. Townsend, on proceeding into one of
those enrions semi-commercial temples, where
twelve porcelain idols gazed down'upon a set of
worshipers gambling in such august presence,
laid his hand upon the chief idol, and said to a
grave Chinaman: . -
“What you call him ?”
The obliging ' Celestial, nothing offended,
answered, after a'inoment’s reflection:
“Josh!”
“Oh, yes, I know he’s a Josh; but ain t ha
got some other name ? Ain’t he a particular
kind of a Josh; an almighty Josh, an evil Josh,
aWiUiamor a Henry Josh? What’s hia pre-
nom"i" - .
The obliging Celestial, thinking it over a
minute, shook Ms head negatively, but suddenly
a flood of light rushed upon Mm.
“’Melikan man,” "he stud, “oall Mm sonny-
pitch!” ■ V
The Chinaman thus innocently expressed a
great international fact ’The “’Melikan man”
considers every tMng of Celestial origin—John
or Josh indifferently—as the cMld of a dog.
A Lono Jaunt.—There arrived at Suspension
Bridge, Niagara Falls, on the evening of Jane
29, a gentleman of means—an Englishman by
birth—who pnt up at the Monteagle House. He
left Boston on the 14th of June (distance 520
miles,) and -walked to this place in 12 days.
He takes this way of seeing the country. He
carries a vaHso and contents, which weigh 50
pounds, strapped on Ms back. He says that he
came from the Old Country purposely to see
this country, and prefers to view it on foot,
from the Atlantio to tho Pacific: that when he
arrives back in England he can give a full des
cription of this country to-his friends. June 30
he left the Monteagle, on Ms journey through
Canada to Chicago, from there to Omaha and
San Francisco—his journey’s end. He will re
turn by rail to New York, whence he will tako
steamer again to England. .' -
Five Ways to Destroy Ants.—1. Pour copi
ously hot water, as near the boiling point as
possible, down their burrows, and over their
hills, and repeat the operation several times.
2. Entrap the ants by means of narrow sheets
of stiff paper, or strips of board, covered with
some sweet sticky substance. The ants are at
tracted by the Bweets, and sticking fast, can be
destroyed iD often as a sufficient number are
entrapped.
3. Lay fresh bones around their haunts.—
They will leave everytHng else to attack these,
and when thus accumulated can be dipped into
water.
4. Pour two-.or three spoonfuls of coal into
their hole arid they will abandon the nest.
5. Bury a few slices of onions in their nests,
and they will abandon them.
The tables are about to be turned, and the
woman-women most be prepared to find the men
getting into skirts, as a retaliation for the en
croachments that women are constantly making
upon the masculine style of dress. Down near
Mount Pleasant, O., there may be seen at work
in tlfe hay fields a number of men, whose attire
^neiata of a sMrt and a skirt, very closely re
sembling a woman’s pettiooat. They wear this
oostume because Christ and his disciples did,
because they find it oool and easy, and because
the notion that it is shameful for men to dress
like women is all bosh. They anticipate a time
when both men and women will dress as they
pleaie. t .rtetfaa^'
Decisions of tbe supreme Court of
Georgia. 4XA.
DELIVERED AT ATLANTA, TUESDAY, JULY 18, 1871.
From tho Atlanta Constitution ]
Bust, Johnson A Co. et. al, vs. Rebecca Bil
lingslea et al.—Milton Creighton ot al., vs. John
R. Jones et ai. Equity, from Dougherty.
Warner, 3.—This was a bill filed by the ad
ministrator of Billingslea for directions as to the
payment of the debts of Ms intestate out of the
assets in Ms hands (the estate being insolvent),
including the widow’s right- to dower, home
stead eta.
Held, That the neceesaxy expenses of the ad
ministration, including the provision allowed
for the snpport of the family of the intestate,
be pud oat of the general fnnds of the estate.
Held, also, That the decree of tbe court bio-
low in favor of Milton Creighton, trustees, eta,
be affirmed as to the amonnt thereof, and being
a debt due by tiie intestate as trustee, is to be
paid next after.the expenses of administration
and the year’s snpport of the intestate’s family.
It appears from the record that on the 11th
October, 18C6, th9 intestate, Billingslea, and
Yason, jointly purchased from Jones the Mott
and Clayton plantations, gave their joint notes
therefor, Jones making a deed to them jointly
for the land, and they, at the 6ame time, jointly
executed a mortgage to Jones on the land to
secure the payment of tho notes given for
the purchase money thereof. Tho purchasers
of the land, occupied it jointly for one year,
then Yason relinquished his interest in it to the
intestate, who occupied and cultivated the same
to tho time of his death on his own acoount.
Jones was no party to the contract between Ya-
son and BillingsleA' ; • ' - "
Hdd, That the seisin of the intestate of the
land embraced in the Mott and Clayton planta
tions, enffieient in law, under* the
ions of the revised eoae oi this State, to entitle
Ms widow to dower therein; that a mortgage
in this State is only a security for a debt, and
passes 7xo title; that the mortgage on the land
was a lien created by the parties making it,
which oarinot defeat the widow’s right to dower;
that inasmuch as the mortgage lien on the un
divided half of Mott and Clayton’s plantations,
was not created by the intestate as the husband
ot the widow, but by Yason,' who subsequently
conveyed the land to the intestate with the en
cumbrance of the mortgage, the widow, before
she pan enjoy her dower in the undivided half
of the land convey ed to her husband by Yason,
with the incumbrance of Jones’ mortgage,
must first discharge that 'inemnbranoe created
by Yason’to Jones, the same not being a lien
created by her husband but a lien wMch existed
on the land at the time the husband acquired
his title thereto from Vason. It is also dis
closed by tbe reeord that on January 31,1868,
Billingslea, the intestate, drew Ms draft in favor
of Thomas Hill, for the sum of $4,322 39, payable
15th November next, after date, upon Messrs.
Rust, Johnson & Co., Albany, and to' Secure
the payment of that draft, the intestate, on
the same day, executed Ms mortgage deed to
Hill for his undivided half interest in the tract
of land, known as the Hill plantation, the sum
specified in the draft being the amount due Hill
by the intestate for Ms share of the original pur
chase money for the Hill plantation. This draft
was accepted by Messrs. Rust Johnson & Co.,
for tho accommodation of the drawer, and paid
by them as such accommodation acceptors, they
having no funds of the intestate drawer in their
hands at the time of their acceptance of the
draft.
It also appears from the record, that Rust,
Johnson & Co. refused to accept the draft of
the intestate, unless the mortgage was made,
and that it was agreed that the mortgage should
be transferred to them on payment of the draft
by them. The draft was paid at maturity, and
the mortgage was transferred to them on the
25th of November, 1868:
Held, That, under thegeneral rule, applicable
to the payment of the debt by accommodation
acceptors, or securities, they would have been
entitled to the transfer of tbe mortgage: most
certainly they were entitled to such transfer,
under the special agreement of the parties, as
shown by the record, and ware entitled to the
same specific lien on the Hill plantation, or the
proceeds of the sale thereof, as the original
mortgago, arid to have the same paid,* according
to the priority of its - lien upon that specific
property included in the mortgage. '
Held, also. That tho widow of the intestate
was not entitled to a homestead and personal
exemption ontof his property in addition to her
dower and provision for her year’s snpport.
■ mi—*-—7 . —j
Johnson & Co. was not entitled to priority of
payment out of the proceeds of the crops made
on the Mott & Clayton plantation in the years
1868 and 1869, on the statement of facts dis
closed in the reoord.
Held, also, That overseers, unless they are
employed as common day laborers, and work
as such cn the plantation, are not entitled to
priority of lien for the payment of their wages
under the act of 1869.
Let the judgment and deoree of the court be
low be reversed, and a decree bo rendered in
conformity with the judgment of this court on
tho questions made in the bill of exceptions as
set forth in the record.
Judgment reversed.
Lochbane, 0. J., dissenting.—For reasons
given in the case of Slaughter vs. Culpepper, I
dissent from so much of the judgment in these
cases as gives to the widow of Francis A. Bil
lingslea dower in Ms interest in the lands pur
chased of Jones, and upon which, simultane
ously with the deed, and as a part of the same
transaction, a mortgage was executed for the
purohase money bo far as such right of dower is
preferred by the judgment to the claim of the
vendor under the facts in the case. > •

Application for dower, from Mitchell county. .
McOay, J.—Under sections 1753 and 1759 of
the revised Code of this State, which provide,
that a widow is entitled to dower in all lands of
which her husband died, seized and possessed,
and that no lien created by the husband daring
his life shall in any manner interfere with the
same, a mortgagemade by the husband, for the
purchase money, cotemporaneously with the
deed to him by the vendor, passing as it does
“no title” and being only a lien oreated by the
husband is no bar to her right of dower, nor is
her dower subjeot to the same. •
A widow is, in this State, entitled to dower in
lands bargained by the husband, in Ms lifetime
to a third person, tho purohase money remain
ing unpaid and the title to the land being' re
tained by the husband, in himself, until Ms
death.
Judgment reversed.
Lochbane, J., dissenting —I dissent from the
judgment of the Court in this case, for the fol
lowing legal roasons: While I recognize dower
as favored by law, and fully appreciate the force
of seotion 1753 of the Code declaring the right
of the wife in one-tMrd of the lands of which,
her husband die3 seized and possessed;' pnd
sectiou'19t4, that a mortgage in this State is
only security for a debt, and passes no title;’
and also section 1859, which declares no lien
created by the husband in bis lifetime thail, in
any manner, interfere with the right of dower,
yet I am of opinion, where the contract nnder
which the land was bought embraced the condi-
tion of a mortgage as the security of the pur
chase money, and the deed and mortgage were
simultaneously made and constituted in law one
act, that dower docs not attach as against the
vendor for the purohase money. The rule
laid down in 21 Ga., 408, and the reasoning nf
the Court appear to me conclusive of tho
question. Taking the whole transaction tol
gethir, it was a conditional sale, and the
title never did rest in the mortgagor, ex
cept enoumbexed with the debt, to-wit: the
purchase money. If the purchaser, after re
ceiving the deed, had refused to execute
the mortgage, the contract of purchase was in
complete and would be rescinded; it took both
instruments to consummate the agreement of
purchase. The liens wMch dower displaces are
liens created by the husband on his land, but
this land is not Ms under the contract without
paying for it. Whilo every consideration of
public policy demands that the widow should be
favored in her rights of dower as to the estate
of her husband, I do not tMnk she is entitled
to her dower in the property of another. I am
of the opinion that the contract to buy and se
cure the purchase money was one—that both
instruments were essential to its perfection—
and being simultaneously made, had the effeot,
not of lien only, but of a higher obligation,
paramount to dower, in that it was the condi
tion and terms of the contract by wMch the land
was acquired.

New Orleans.—The Saratoga gossip of the
Commercial Advertiser quotes’’Hr. Davis, - a
banker of Memphis, as Baying:
“ Poor New Orleans Is losing prestige. Be
fore the war she imported directly from Europe.
Now she depends, upon New York, Memphis,
Cincinnati, 8t Louts, Shrieveport, Galveston,
Mobile, and the eoast towns whioh used to
trade with New Orleans now cut her, and trade
with Memphis and New York direct New Or
leans is dying, commercially, every day."
A bot near Omaha the other day struck upon
a rattlesnake near his father’s house, and as he
was temporarily in charge of his little sister, he
gave her the reptile to play with. Presently the
snake, tired of the child’s fondling, began to
hiss vioiously arid rattle. The boy discovering
then Its venomous nature, snatched it from his
sister and attempted to fling it away. The snake
fastened about his wrist and threatened to bite.
The boy alarmed his father, who was not far
off, and by caution the latter sucoeededtn en
ticing the reptile so that it left the boy. When
killed, the rattlesnake was found to be fall
grown, over two feet long, and with six rattles.
A correspondent who has lately been looking
into the traces of war in the environs of Paris,
says that the miles upon mileB of broken and
orushod dwellings wMch meet one’s gaze during
a ride through Auteuil or Neuilly, or St. Cloud,
compel the conviction that no one now living
will see those places as they were before the
siege by the Germans and the siege by the
Frenoh troops themselves. But perhaps thtg
opinion exaggerates the damage done.

Its Core and Its Preventive.

OB. JOSEPH H. SCBEKCK’S SIMPLE
nunoffr,
and availed theswelvei of bis wonderful efficacious
medicines, they would not have fallen. Dr. Schenck
has in hia own ease proved that wherever sufficient
vitality remains, that vitality, by his medicine* and
ffia directions for their use, is quickened into health
ful Vizor.
In this statement there is nothing presumptuons.
To the faith of the invalid is madeno representation
that is not a thousand times substantiated by living
and visible work*. The theory of the core by Dr.
Schenek’s medicines is as simple es it is unfailing.
Its philosophy requires no argument. It is self-
atsering, self-convincing.
The Beawood Tonic and Mandrake Pills are the first
two weapons with which the citadel of the malady is
assailed. Two-thirds of the cases of consumption
originate in dyspepsia and a functionally disordered
liver. With this condition the bronchial tube* ‘'sym
pathise” with the stomach. They respond to the
morbific action of the liver. Here then comes the
eulminattag result, and the setting in, with aU its dis
tressing symptoms, of . •*' , .
■iXZT, COSSUMPTISH. -
-The Mandrake Pills are eompoeed et one of Nature’s
noblest gifts—thePodophillum Feltatnm. They pos
sess all the blood-searching, alterative properties of
calomel, but unlike calomel, they
“LEAVE NO STIN6 BEHIND.”
The work'of cure is now beginning.' The vitiated
and mucous deposits in the bowels and in the ali
mentary oanal are elected. Theliver^likeaolook, is
wound up. It arcuses from its torpidity.. The stom
ach acts responsively, and the patient begins to feel
tKai h« iaeattie* 1m4 -
A SUPPLY OF GOOD BLOOD.
The Seaweed Tonic, in conjunction with the Fills
permeates and assimilates with the food. Chyliflea-
tion is now progressing without its previous tortures.
Digestion becomes painless, and the cure is seen to be
at hand. There is no moreflatulence, no excerbation
of the stomach. An appetite sets in.
Now comes the greatest Blood Purifier ever yet
given by an indulgent father to suffering man.
Schenck^ Pulmonic Syrup eomes in to perform its
functions arid to hasten and compute the cure. It
enters at once upon its work. Nature cannot be
cheated. It collects and ripens the impaired afid dis
eased portions of the lungs. In the form of gather
ings, it prepares them for expectoration, and lo t in a
very short rime the malady is vanqaiahed. the rotten
throne that .it occupied is renovated and madonew,
and the patient,'in aU the dignity of regained vigor,
steps forth to enjoy the manhood or the womanhood
that was
GIVEN UP AS LOST.
The second thing is, the patients must stay in a
warm room until they get well; it is almost impossi
ble to prevent taking cold when-the lungs are dis-
eased, bat it must be prevented or a cure cannot be
effected. Freeh air and riding out; espeeiaUy in this
section of the country in the fall and winter season,
are all wrong. Physicians who recommend that
conne lose their patients, if their longs are badly
diseased, and yet, because they are m the house they
must not sit down quiet; they must walk about the
room as much and as fast as the strength will bear, to
get up a good circulation o'f blood. The patients
must keep in good spirits—be determined to get well.
This has a great deal to do with the appetite, and is
the gTeat point to gain; To despair of cure after such
evidence of its possibility in the worst eases, and
moral certainty in allothers, is sinful. Dr. Schenok’k
personal-statement-to the Faculty of his own’eure
was in these modest words:
"51any years ago I was in the last stages of con-
snmption, confined to. my bed, and at one time my
physicians thought that X could not live a week; then
like a drowning man catching at straws, I heard of
and obtained the preparations which. I now offer to
the public, and they made a perfect cure of me. It
seemed to me that I could feel them penetrate my
wholesystem. They soon ripened the matter m my
.lungs, and I would spit up more than a pint of offen
sive yellow m atterevery morning for a long time.
As soon as that began to subside, my cough, fevtr,
pain and night swoats all began to leave me, and my
appetite became so great that it. was with difficulty
that I could keep from eating too much. I seen
gained my strength and have grown in flesh ever
since."
“I was weighed shortly, after my recovery,” added
the Doctor, “then looking like a mere skeleton; my
weight was only ninety-seven pounds;-my present
weight is two hundred and"twenty-five (225) pounds,
and lor years I have enjoyed uninterrupted health.
Dr. Soheuck has discontinued his professional visits
to New York and Boston. He or his son, Dr. J,H.
Schenck, Jr , still continue to see patients at their
office. No. 15 North Sixth street, Philadelphia, every
Saturday from 9 a. u. to 3 p. M. Those who wish a'
thorough examination with the Respirometer will be
charged <5. The Respirometer .declares the exact
condition of the lungs, and patients can readily learn
whether they are curable or not. ■ .
The directions for takingthe medicines are adapted
to the intelligence even ofaoktid. Follow these di
rections, and kind Nature will do the rest, excepting
that in some cases the Mandrake Pills are td be taken
in increased doses; the three medicines needno other
accompaniments than tho amplo instructions that ac
company them: First creato appetite. Of returning
health hunger is themostwoloome symptoqj. When
itomes, as it will come, let the despairing at once
be of good cheer. .-Good blood at once follows, the
cough loosens, the night sweat is abated. In a short
time both of these morbid symptoms arejgone forever,
A Perilous Season.—Glorious and delightful as
the summer weather is, its tropiosi heat is a severe
trial to the vital powers. Even the strongest aro
sometimes prostrated by its effects. The common
phrase applied to this, condition of the body is
“general debility.” Now, general debility arises
from, and includes a variety of ailments. The
liveris more or less affected, tho bowels are either
constipated or too much relaxed, the etomsch but
half performs the work of digestion, the appetite is
poor, and the spirits depressed. This is what is
called general dobility. It is a general disarrange
ment of all the physical functions, and requires aw
a remedy a medicine that will regulate them all.
HoBtetter’a Stomach Bittere is specially adapted to
this purpose. Its general operation is not eonfined
to a single organ. If the liver is affected, it re
stores its tone. If the stomach ia torpid, it regen
erates it. If the nerves are tremulous and weak,
it braoes and reinforoes them, - If the mind, which
ever sympathizes with the body, ia gloomy and de
spondent, it relieves the difficulty, and soon brings
the whole mechanism of the body into harmony
with the laws of health.
There is no civilized nation in the Western hem
isphere in wMch the utility of Hoe tetter’s Stem** 0
Bitters, as a tonic, corrective, and anti-bilion* med ‘
cine, is not known and appreciated. Throughout
the tropics it is considered, both by tee people and
the profeesioa, the standard speJifio- While it is a
medicine for all seasons an J all climates, is is es
pecially suited to the complaints generated by the
weather, being the pawrt bad beet vegetable stim
ulant In the world.
Beware of the Bitten made of acid and danger
ous materials, which unscrupulous parties are en
deavoring to foist upon the people. Their name ia
legion, and the publio has no guarantee that they
are not poisonons. Adhere to the tried remedy,
