U. S. Grant. Sherman introduced a bill repealing said eighth section, hut providing that the Secretary shall act iu no case iu which he is personally interested, and asked the present consideration of the bill.

The following are the closing Dara"Tanhs in Pres ident Jonnsou'o non teas : “Calmly reviewing my administration of the Government, I feel that, with a sense of mv ac countability to God, and having endeavored to discharge mv whole duty, I have nothing to regret. “Eveuts have proved the correctness of the policy set forth in my first and subsequent mes sages. The woes which have followed the rejec tion of forbearance, magnanimity, and constitu tional rule, are known and deplored by the nation. “It is a matter of pride and gratification, in re tiring from the most exalted position in the gift of a free people, to feel and know that in a long, ar duous, and eventful public life, my action has never been influenced by a desire for gain ; and that I can in all sincerity inquire, ‘Whom have I defrauded? whom have I oppressed ? or of whose hand have I received any bribe to blind my eyes therewith V “No responsibility for wars that have been waged or blood that has been shed rests upon me. My thoughts have been those of peace, and my eflorts have ever been to allay contentions among my countrymen. Forgetting the past, let us return to the first principles of the Government, and un furling the banner of our country, inscribe upon it in ineffaceable characters —‘The Constitution and the Union, One and Inseperable.

March, that gives ns anew President, is also the inaugural month of many harassing disor ders. Entangled in Its fogs are the seeds of coughs, colds, and of that altercation of frigidity and fire, more widely known than admired, called fever and ague. The only way to avoid these “little unpleasantnesses,” Is to render the system strong enough to fight off the atmospoeric poison that produces them, and the best way to endow it with this repellent power is to tone it wiih HOSTETLER'S STOMACH BITTERS. If a wayfarer were credibly informed that a ruf fian was waiting at the next corner, he would doubtless turn in his tracks, and take a safer route to his destination. With just about the same amount of tronble, the attacks of diseases prevalent at this season may be evaded. Nay, the tronble will be less, for drug stores lie in every one’s route, aud every respectable drug gist in the Union keeps on hand HOSTETTER’S BITTKKS. The article is a staple of trade, and it would be as easy to find a grocery without sugar, as the store of an apothecary without this popu lar tonic remedy. In view of the experience of the nation with regard to the article, daring the space of twenty years, it seems almost unnecessary to recapitu late its merits to Americans. But as our popula tion is increasing at the rate of a couple of mil lions a year, in the natural way aud by immigra tion, it may be as well to hint to the rising gen eration and new arrivals, (the old settlers know all about it.) that HOSTETTER'S STOMACH BaTTERS is the most wholesome and potent vegetable tonio ever manufactured ; that it is a specific for debility, dyspepsia, biliousness and miasmatic fevers; that it prevents, as well as cures these complaints and tbelr complications , that His not “bad to take,” aud is absolutely armless.

PORTER Is performing some very remarkable cures ol long standin g casts. Afflicted, call at once. Scrofula, or King’s Evil, is a constitutional disease, a corruption of the blood, by which this fluid becomes vitiated, weak, and poor. Being in the circulation, it pervades the whole body, and may burst out in disease on any part of it. No organ is free from its attacks, nor is there one which it may not destroy. The scrofulous taint is variously caused by mercurial disease, low living, dis ordered or unhealthy food, impure air, filth and filthy habits, the depressing vices, and, above all, by the venereal infection. What ever be its origin, it is hereditary in the con stitution, descending “ from parents to children unto the third and fourth generation ; ” indeed, it seems to be the rod of Him who says, “I will visit the iniquities of the fathers upon their children.” Its effects commence by deposition from the blood of corrupt or ulcerous matter, which, in the lungSj liver, and internal organs, is termed tubercles; in the glands, swellings; and on the surface, eruptions or sores. This foul cor ruption, which genders in the blood, depresses the energies of life, so that scrofulous constitu tions not only suffer from scrofulous com plaints, but they have far less power to with stand the attacks of other diseases; conse quently vast numbers perish by disorders which, although not scrofulous in their nature, are still rendered fatal by this taint in the system. Most of the consumption which de cimates the human family has its origin directly in this scrofulous contamination ; and many destructive diseases of the liver, kidneys, brain, and, indeed, of all the organs, arise from or are aggravated by the same cause. One quarter of all our people are scrofulous; their persons are invaded by this lurking in fection, and their health is undermined by it. To cleanse it from the system we must renovate the blood by an alterative medicine, and in vigorate it by healthy food and exercise. Such a medicine we supply in AYER’S Compound Extract of Sarsaparilla, the most effectual remedy which the medical skill of our timjjj can devise for this every where prevailing and fatal malady. It is com bined from the most active remedials that have been discovered for the expurgation of this foul disorder from the blood, and the rescue of the system from its destructive consequences. Hence it should he employed for the cure of not only Scrofula, hut also those other affec tions which arise from it, such as Eruptive and Skin Diseases, St. Anthony’s Fire, Kose, or Erysipelas, Pimpi.es, Pustules, Blotches. Blains and Boils,Tumors, Tetter and Salt Rheum, Sc*i.n Head, Ringworm, Rheumatism, Syphilitic and Mercurial Dis eases, Dropsy, Dyspepsia, Dehility, and, indeed, all Complaints arising from Vitia ted or Impure Bi.ood. The popular belief in “ impurity of the blood ” is founded in truth, for scrofula is a degeneration of the blood. The particular purpose and virtue of this Sarsapa rilla is to purify anil regenerate this vital fluid, without which sound health is impossible in contaminated constitutions. AYER’S Ague Cure., FOR THE SPEEDY CURE OF Intermittent Fever, or Fever anil Ague, Remittent Fever, Chill Fever, Dumli Ague, Periodical Headache, or li.lious Headache, and Itilious Fevers, indeed for the whole class of diseases originat ing in biliary derangement, caused by the Malaria of Miasmatic Countries. We are enabled here to offer tne community a remedy which, while it cures the above complaints with certainty, is still perfectly harmless in any quantity. Such a remedy is invaluable in districts where these alllicting disorders prevail. This “ Cure ” expels the miasmatic poison AND Ague from the system, and prevents the de velopment of the disease, if taken on the first ap proach of its premonitory symptoms. It is not only the best remedy ever yet discovered for this class of complaints, hut also the cheapest. The large quantity we supply for a dollar brings it within the reach of every body ; and in bilious districts, where Fever and Ague prevails, every body should have it and use it freely both for cure and protec tion. A great superiority of this remedy over any other ever discovered for the speedy and certain cure of Intermittents is that it contains no Quinine or mineral, consequently it produces no quinism or other injurious effects whatever upon the constitu tion. »1 hose cured by it are left as healthy as if they bad never bad tbe disease. - Fever and Ague is not alone the consequence of the miasmatic poison. A great variety of disor ders arise from its irritation, among which are Neuralgia, Rheumatism, Gout, Headache, Blind ness, toothache. Earache, Catarrh, Asthma, Pal pitation, rain ful Affection of the Spleen, Hyster ics, Pain in the Bowels, Colic, Paralysis and De rangement of the Stomach, all of which, when originating in this cause, put on the intermittent type, or become periodical. This “ Cure ” expels the poison from the blood, and consequently cure* them all alike. It is an invaluable protection to immigrants and persons travelling or temporarily residing in the malarious districts. If taken occa sionally or daily while exposed to the infection, that will be excreted from the system, and cannot accumulate in sufficient quantity to ripen into dis ease. Hence it is even more valuable for protec tion than cure, and few will ever suffer from Inter mittents if they avail themselves of the protection this remedy affords. Prepared by Dr. J- 0.

Having closely inspected the Patent flow of the Rev. F. F Reyno'ds, I take pleasure saying, that, in rny opinion it should attract the attention of the Agricul tural Community Asa Cotton and Corn Cultivator, it must prove eminently useful and satisfactory. It is so constructed that any form of Plow-share can be u*-ed upon the same Stoc k It combines simplicity, lightness and strength, and from the mechanical prin ciples on which it is constructed, it can l»e easily man aged by any ordinary plawboy. Mr. Keyqplds is a gentleman of character, and deserves the confidence and patronage of the public. HERSCHEL V. JOHNSON. Artxaiccs, Oct. I4th. 1868.
