We made the same 1 Suggestion years ago, and most cordial ly endorse it now. It is of paramount importance that such intelligence Should be in the hands of tire people— and the newspapers afford the best 1 means of accomplishing that object.— j The cost would be trifling, and it would Ho doubt have a healthy etfeet on the public morals.

Cir cuit Court yesterdoy, during the exam ination of Alexander Robinson, the ven erable Pottawattomie chieftain, an old time Interpreter to the garrison here, Stated what is quite too original, as well as aboriginal , to be confined to its proper place in tho reported evidence to-day. It was a view of Pottawatto mie thirst, that brought down the whole Court, bar and bystanders. Quoth Alexander, “ I was in those days much about the garrison ; kept within a few miles ; always went to the Sutlers’s when I was thirsty.” “ Were you often thirsty?” “ Had’nt much money in those limes.” “ Were you thirsty whenever you had money ?” “ Was very much thirsty always when I had money.’’—Chicago Press and Tribune. t Earnings of the Central Rallioad.

At tlie appointed hour, therefore, i Alfred was again ushered by the polite servant into the luxurious drawing room, where he had passed through such strange scenes and where he now, previous to Kate’s entrance, diversified the time by getting up an extra amount of dignity. At length the young lady came in, looking most demurely, yet dressed most charmingly, and the flush on her checks rendering her very love ly, so that Alfred’s bow was uot quite as stately as he had intended it to have been, for he was evidently struck with her beauty. Kate's bend of the head, | however, was dignified in the cx | treme, ami she motioned him toward j a chair, while 6he seated herself on a j safa opposite. “ Ahem !—-Miss Forrester, I am here this morning to—to—ahem—” here Al fred broke down completely, and felt i all the more embarrassed as he beheld the perfect ease and composure of Kate. Her eyes now began to shine with mirth, but suppressing her smiles, she said with the utmost calmness, “Well, sir, proceed." He rallied somewhat and was about to try another mode of speech, when her pretty hand, together with a pecu liarly chased ring upon one of the fin gers. caught liis attention. She saw bis | glance, started, and threw her embroid ered handkerchief over her hand, but not quickly enough, for in an instant Al ! fred was up and standing before her, J with a sudden, joyful light breaking j in upon him. “ Can it be possible that Miss Giles j and Miss Forrester are one and the [ same ? Yes, t see it all now, for so bean i tiful a mouth does not often fall to the : lot of mortals,” he said gallantly, yet j softly, for Kate was completely over j whelmed now by the length to which | she had carried her joke, and still more by his discovery of it, and she sat there | painfully embarrassed, with her head j drooping, her hands over her face, and 1 her blushes even tinting her beautiful | throat. “ Nay, do not go, Miss Forrester," i continued Alfred, for she sprang up, F evidently with the wish to escape. “Do not go, I beg, but rather let us converse j over this affair calmuly, now that we ’ understand each other,” and he took * her hand for a moment, in order to seat ’ her, and then he placed himself beside her. “ I hope you will forgive any foolish ness, Mr. Latimer,” began the confused Kate : “Cousin Frank Hamilton read me the advertisement and told me of you. He knows nothing of this miser able affair, however, nor does any one hut—us.” “Then lam a thousand time6obliged to my friend Hamilton, for being the unconscious cause of my present happi ness, for,” he added, again taking her hand gently, and this time retaining it, “ we will, I presume, hold to our bar gain of Saturday last!” Kate started and exclaimed, “Oh, no, no!” “And why not ? Listen to me," and Alfred,pitying poor Kate sincerely, spoke calmnly and seriously. “ Eighteen months ago Frank Hamilton and I be came acquainted in the South, and X heard him mention so frequently his sweet cousin Kate, that I became half in love with her. He, it happened, had always omitted your surname, though unintentionally of course, and I ne glected to ask it. When I came to this city, Frank was absent, and when he returned, you were away, so the intend ed introduction was delayed. You said just now that he had told you of me, therefore we are old friends, are we not ? So if you are willing to accept me upon this, I lay my poor heart at your feet. I)o not turn away, dear Kate,” he besought, with a manly ten derness in his tone, “and think no more of this foolish jest, excepting to remember to it as having been the means of rendering us happy. I trust. Look at me, Kate." Her drooping head was raised and she turned her flushed face toward him tim- i idly, her blue eyes brimming with tears. ; Something in her looks permitted him to hope, and when his arm, which stole ■ round h'er waist was not repulsc-d, then he bent over and kissed the rosy mouth. “ And now my sweet Kate, tell me how you happened to say that j’our mother was employed here as house keeper, and that you were a country girl?" Kate laughed rogueishly. “Well, now,” she exclaimed, “do you not sup pose my dear mother really docs attend to the household affairs of papa ? And lam just from the country, where I have been all summer, and which was in fact my birth place. So you see I told the truth, sir, altho’ you do not | find Miss Forrester quite so countryfied, las was Miss Giles! Acknowledge that ! by the aid of spectacles, ill fitting dress, and an 'auburn' wig, saucy Kate makes an excellent farmer’s daughter.” “I do acknowledge that, also my stupidity, as regards the housekeeping business, etc; and although two days ago I had taken an aversion to ‘auburn’ bair, I find my former taste, and liking for it, returning rapidly,” said Alfred i regarding Kate’s really beautiful hair with admiring eyes. C- 0 o o s <s When Mrs. Forrester and cousin : Frank came, the impatient lover laid his case before them, hacked by Mr. Forrester, whose good opinion he had readily won, the same day lie had ad i dressed Kate. lie found little difficul ty in obtaining the consent of all par ties, though every one was rather sur prised at the suddenness of the affair.— Cousin Frank was boisterous in his con gratulations, declaring that he was bound to follow their illustrious exam ple, which indeed he soon did—not by advertising—bnt by simply* failing in love, in the old fashioned style, with a gentle friend of Kate’s, who acted as bridesmaid for our little heroine, the following spring, and who in about : four months afterwards made cousin Frank happy by becoming his wife. When the wild mocking birds were trilling their merriest carols in the sun [ ny Southern bowers, and when the air ! was redolent with the sweet fragrance of flowers and opening buds, our fair Kate, now Mi's. Latimer, accompanied her devoted and happy husband to his ; bealiful Georgian home. ] And Alfred Latimer has never yet rc jpented having advertised, “Wanted—a Wife!” Athens. Frosts. This luoruing there was quite a heavy frost. We have heard of frost in ! this vicinity some time since, but if | there was any it must have been very j light.

DIAL.—The dyspeptic patient, whose stomach has lost the power of duly converting food into a ’ life-sustaining element, is relieved by a single course of this extraordinary tonic. The gastric fluid re acquires its solvent power, and the crude I nutriment, which was a load and a burthen to the sufferer, while his digestive organization was paralyzed and unstrung, becomes, under the • wholesome revolution created in the system, the basis of activity, strength and health. The nervous sufferer, while tormented by the acute, physical agony of Neuralgia, Tic-doloreux , or ordinary headache, alilicted with vague ter rors, wakened by periodical fits, threatened w r ith ; paralysis, borne down and dispirited by that terrible lassitude which proceods from a lack of nervous energy, or experiencing any other pain or disability arising from the unnaturalcondition of the wonderful machinery which connects ev ery member with the source of sensation, mo tion and thought—derives immediate benefit from the use of this Cordial, which at once calms, invigorates and regulates the shattered nervous organization. Females who have tried it are unanimous in declaring the Elixir to be the greatest boon that woman has ever received from the hands of medical men. Morse’s Invigorating Elixir has a direct, im mediate and astonishing effect upon the appetite While it renews the strength of the digestive powers it creates a desire for the solid material which is to be subjected to their action. As an j appetiser it has no equal in the Pharmacopia. Iflonglile and the vigor necessary to its en-, joyment arc desirable, this medicine is indeed of precious worth Its beneficial effects are not confined to cither sex or to any age. The feeble girl, the ailing wife, the listless, enervated youth, the overworn man of business, the victim of nervous depres sion, the individual suffering from general de bility or from the weakness of a single organ willall find immediateand permanent relief from j the use of this incomparable renovator. To! those who have a predisposition to paralysis it : will prove a complete and unfailing safe-guard j agaiust that terrible malady. There are many | perhaps who have so trifled with their constitu- j tion that they think themselves beyond the reach I of medicine. Let not even those despair. The Elixir deals with disease as it exists, without re- j lerence to the causes, and will not only remove j the disorder itself, but rebuild the broken con- \ stitution LOSS OF MEMORY, confusion, giddiness, rush i of blood to the head, melancholy, mental debil-1 ity, hysteria, wretchedness, thoughts ofself-dc-j siruction, fear of insanity, hypochondriasis, dys pepsia, general prostration, irritabiiily, nervous ness, inability to sleep, distaste incident to fe males, decay of the propagating functions, hys teria, monomania, vague terrors, palpitation of the heart, impotency, constipation, etc., from whatever cause arising, it is, if there i 3 any reli ance to be placed on human testimony, absolute ly infallible.

(irCure of Diseased Liver. —Ho.vesdale Co., Penn., Jan. 10, 1850-—-Mr. Seth W Fowle—Sir : You are at liberty to use : the following statement for the benefit of the af t fflicted : I was attacked with the Liver Complaint, which apparently brought me to the brink of the grave. During my sickness I was attended j by three physicians in our place, but received j no help. I also tried the various remedies re commended for such complaints, but they af forded me no relief. As a last resort, I was persuaded to try WUtar's Balsam of Wild Cherry, and by using four bottles I was restored to better health than I have enjoyed before for ten years. This statement may be relied upon as strictly true. Betsey Pkkri.v . The above certificate was given in the pre sence of Dr. A.

She had been under a physicians’ care for some time, but the disease seemed to baflie even his skill. She! ' purchased some HOLLAND BITTERS at our of* j fice, which has given tone to her stomach ; her!

People i will not use dyes when a natural restoration to j the original color of the hair can he produced by ■ natural remedies. Dyes are artificial agents, j and dangerous in their application, but WOOD’S | HAIR TONIC is a healthy stimulant. and causes a healthy growth. A giowth of gray hair on a young person’s head is unnatural, and to apply i a coloring fluid produces au unnatural result; j the color i 3 changed, to be sure, but not through | the roots of the hair. ladies, do you see that j I geranium plant iu the window yonder ? liow yel- j low and laded it looks ? It is alive and growing; j yet where is the beautiful, rich, dark green that j belongs to it? Gone. You can color those leaves by au external application of chemicals, but they will not remain colored. Do you desire to do it naturally V Make a solution of guano water, apply it to the roots, and the plant will take it up into the system, and then you will see a rich green, permanent hue. Professor Wood’s Hair Tonic works on the same principle. The roots j of the hair drink up that application, and high j health and beauty result.
