DR.SAGE'S CATARRH REMEDY. It is the only form of instrument yet invented with which finid medicine can be carried high ug and {;erfeotly applied to all parts of the affected nasal passages, and the chambers or cavitiei commumeatin% therewith, in which sores and ulcers frequently exist, and from which the catarrhal discharge generally proceeds. The want gt_suco‘ess in treating Catarrh heretofore has rmen.lar%elg from the impossibility of applying remedies to these cavities amd chambers by any of the ordinary methods. This obstacle in the way of eﬂ:cctin’g cures is entirely overcome by the inyention of the Douche. Its use is pleasant and ‘5O simple that a child can understand it Full and explicit directions accompany each instrument.

The evidence ofithis fac is found in the great variety of most obstinate iiseases which it has been found to conguer. In the. cure of Bronchitis, Severe Con?ns,‘ and the early stages of Comnsumption, it has nstonished the medical faculty, and eminent thsioians ,pronounce it the greatest medical iscove_rgo the age. While it cures the severest Coughs, it strengthens the system and puris gles the i)lood. By its great and thorough lood-purifying properties, it cures all ¥iuta mors, from the worst Scrofula to a common Blotch lelpl‘e,or Erngtion. Mercurial disease, ﬁ[mera Poisons, and their effects, are eradicated, and vigorous health and a sound sonstitution established. Erysipelas, Salt« rheum, Fever Sores, Scalg or liongh Skimn, in short, all the numerous diseases caused by l_)mi blood, are conquered by this powerful, purifying, and invigorating medicine. If you feel dull, drowsr, debilitated, have sallow c¢olor of skin, or yellowish brown spots on face or body, frequent headache or dizziness, bad taste in ‘mouth, internal heat or chills alternated with hot flishes, low spirits, and gloomy forebodings, irregular appetite, and “tongue :oated.l;'ou are su erin§ from Torpid Liver, n_ ¢ Biliousness.’? In many cases of *Liver Complaint? only part of these jymptoms are experienced. As & remedy for 11l such cases, Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical DisJovery has no equal, as it effects &)crfect; cures, leaving the livexf strengthened and healthy. . -SOLD BY DRUGGISTS AT $1 PER BOTTLE, ; Prepared by R.

An Alpine Avalanche. In the summer of 1864, a parly of tourists, while visiting the Alps, with great difficulty, to an elevated and snow-covered plateau, in order to ob-. tain a better view of Swiss scenery, and contrast the, beauty and richness of midsummer below with the bleakness and sterility of midwinter around and above them. In play they rolled the moist snow into large balls, they crowded it over'the edge of the plateau. In falling it struck softer snow, which immediately gave way, and soon an avalanche was tearing down “the mountain side burying and destroying every thing in its course. As the handful of snow became the irresistable avalanche, so the hacking cough with sore throat and catarrh, if neglected, speedily develops into that dread destroyer, consumption. In the early stages, Dr. Sage’s Catarrh Remedy will effect a cure, though if the blood be affected or impoverished it must be purified and enriched by Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery, and the liver and bowels kept active by his Pleasant Purgative DPellets.— Many who despaired of life and had been given up to die by physicians and friends, owe their restoration to the above reiedies. e : Evy, Linn Co., lowa, May 18, 1877, DRr.

ASSASSINATION IN CHICAGO. State Senator Buehler Fatally Stabbed by an Enraged Bohemian, . CHICAGO, Jan. 14.—The Hon: John Buehler, banker, and State Senator from the Fifth Illinois District. was attacked and stabbed by a person having an imaginary grievancs, near his bank in Milwaukee avenue this forenoon. The assailant, a Bohemian named Michael Morso, had some time ago given Mr. Buehler a mortgage for a loan, and Mr. Buehler, in the%urse of business, had transferred the mortgage to a third person, who foreclosed it. The Bohemian, supposing that Mr. Buehler himself had foreclosed and attached his property, became crazy with anger, and meeting him in the street, attacked him with a knife, inflieting wounds which, it is feared, | may prove fatal. Buehler was stabbed three times—first in the face,then in the arm, and lastly in the groin. In the latter instance the bowie knife penetrated to the hilt. The surgeons who attended the wounded man gave no hope of his recovery. In an interview this evening, Morso said that he | ‘intended to Kill Buehler, and sharpen‘ed his knife last night. He added: “We have not had ‘the end of it yet. 'As soon as we get on the other side of Jordan I will be up and after him BEBIDC s e cup Bust e ~Buehler was wealthy.

“It is advisable to do all in your power to sustain such daily and prominent weekly newspapers, especially the agricultural and religious press, as will oppose the issuing of greenback paper money, and that you also withhold patronage or favors from all applicants who are not willing to oppose the greenback or Government issue of paper money. . Let the Government issue the coin, and the banks issue the paper money of the country, for thus can we the better protect each other. So long as the greenl ack men are satisfied with the interconvertible bond, no harm can cowe to our interests, but to repeal the law creating National Banks, or to restore to circulation the Government issue of paper money, will be to provide the people with money from other than our own supplying,and will, therefore, seriously affect your individual profits as banker and lender. i

Edmunds on Civil Service.

Sonth Bend Tribune,

. Benator'Edmunds, of Vermont, the leading Republican in the upper house, has written the President a letter giving his views on the relations which should properly exist between the Chief Executive and the Senate respecting appointments to office. The Senator:is in exact unison on the subject with the President and the Cincinnati platform, and we anticipate that his outspoken and manly stand will weigh heavily in support of the administration and carry dismay to Cenkling and the rest of the senatorial self-seekers, who have come to look upon appointments as their own n?special prerogatives. Senator Edmunds declares it to be improper for Senators and Representatives to urge or recommend appointments to be made, and states that his own custom has been to refer applications to him-for place to the proper departments, with simply a written statement or memorandum by himself of the character -and standing of the signers, if known to him. But lie makes no expression of individual preference. - :

Swindling an old Farmer.

An old farmer of Harrison county was lately swindled out of $1,200 by the following process: A chap came along and was trying to sell the farmer & “combined trough and hay-rack’ for feeding cattle, when up rode a jack leg lawyer of Gallatin (who was slight1y known to the farmer) and inquired if there was a certain Mr. Blank in that section who was selling & liquid that would make old boots as good as’ new. He of the hay-rack replied, “I am the man —what do you want?” “I desire to purchase the right of Missouri. or Pennsylvania,” replied the lawyer;“what is your price ?” “Twelve hundred dollars for Missouri and $2,800 for Pennsylvania,” replied the patent right man, as he drew forth an old worn boot and a new one which he declared was like the old one till he applied the “liquid” to it. Thelawyer was delighted, and after some dickering purchased Pennsylvania for $2, 400, and in the presence of thefa;'mer‘{ ,gtwe' his eheck for that amount on & L 6 did not take the patent right man long to sell “Wﬁofﬁ”ﬂﬁﬂ” . {0 the frsier; (6F h&ﬂ% _note was hastily sold to a bank at Gal‘thi Gaitatis lasrvat, BoGONRE othar

The “Gold Bug” Warfare Against Sil- : Yer. : Tk

The silver money controversy is one of the strangest ever known to the politics of this country. That a country abounding in mines of silver sho’d volunteer to depreciate its own products and demonetize that precious metal, simply because England, having no silvgr, ‘had adopted a gold standard, 'is a curiosity in financial policy. Why the demonetization act of February 12,1873, should have been passed at all is beyond human com-: prehension. Not a solitary voice in ‘the whole nation had asked for it. Not a single branch of our national Industry had required it. ~ It was perceived, however, by persons interested in that new form of investments known as United States bonds, to which the exigencies of war ‘had given rise, that the value of those -securities might be materially enhaneced by cutting off one-half of the means for coin payment, and limiting payment to coin-of one particular kind. Thereupon silver wascut off, aud only gold was left as the *“coin” requisite for the payment of those bonds. This is still a mystery in legislation unexinable by any genius less astute ‘than that of the present Secretary of the Treasury, who was the author of that mysterious law. Eo » Another remarkable feature in this controversy is in the manner in which the “gold bugs” speak of the proposed | remonetizatien of silver. The very men who advocate the perpetration of the great wrong on the American people are cutting off .their silver money as a legal tender in payment of public and private debts, the greatest villainy ever attempted by legislation, now pretend to be pious on the subject,and in a frenzy of holy horror denounce the restoration of our silver money as the “sum of all villainies.” We have been struck with this outery against the “immorality” of making money of 'silver by glancing over a few of the columns of the journals devoted to the bondholders’ interests. * * *

: { From all sides it is seen that the pbponents of silver money are dealing in untruths, in clamors, in threats, in denunciations, in misrepresentations, in pious frauds, and allin furtherance of special money interests as represented by bankers, bondholders, brokers and money-lenders of every degree. But there is no use talking; the people of this country are resolved onthe restoration of our silver money as it stood when those bonds were issued, and before the scandalous act of 1873 was passed.— Cincinnati Star. G e el - —eee Important to Saloon Keepers. The following extract from a letter to a citizen of New Albany, written by éne who knows whereof he speaks, will be of interest to temperance people as well as retail liquor dealers.— We quote—*“Gov. Williams is seriously considering the propriety of recommending to the legislature, in his next message, the adoption of the ‘Morpatt Punch,” now used in Virginia, which registers every drink sold. The tax in Virginia is two and a half cents per drink on distilled liquors and one-half ¢ent on .beer. The Governor of Virs ginia says that from this-revenue the ‘State debt will be paid in five years.— The receipts to the State from the source mentioned amount to $175,000 per month. The penalty for a violation of the law is very severe, and the punch ean not be tampered with without detection. Should our legislature pass this law, Indiana will soon be clear of all indebtedness at the ex- } pense of those bibulously inclined.”

Death of a Distinguished Journalist. “The death of Mr. Samuel Bowles, of the Springfield (Mass.) Republican, which occurred on Wednesday of last, week, marks the disease of another of the great newspaper men of the present day. His death was caused by paralysis of the brain, after an illness of two months. lle was yet in the prime of life, being 1n most respects a well preserved man of fifty-two years. The strongest feature of Mr. Bowles’ newspaper management was that he always strove to be on the true side of all questions of public interest without particular reference to temporary results, and he was more often right than wrong, maintaining his convictions with a force and ability that was recognized by foe as well as friend. His paper, by reason of this well-known characteristic, came to have a circulation and influence far beyond that gained by any other paper published in a provincial town.

A Sad Picture.

A most pitiful scene was witnessed in a tenement house in New York a few days ago. A woman'about forty years of age, with a baby a few weeks old in her arms, begged the landlord to allow her a room, for which she would pay as best she could. She was given one, and in answer. to questions said that her husband had been killed about a month before by an explosion. She was very quiet ahd\gentle, and passed her time in her room sewing. last week some other inmate of ithe house passing by her door looked in and saw her sitting in her chair, her sewing in her hand. On approaching her she was found rigid in death, having died with heart disease. e baby lying on the bed was nearly starved to death, and its arms were frozen. The child will probably die, as it must have been -without food for several days. : :

On the breaxing out of the war they bought grain very heavily, - expecting an increased demand from abroad and an advance in prices. Instead of that there was a falling off in prices of twenty to thirty cents a bushel in wheat. The losses incurred then in connection with others have forced the concern into suspension. .

THE.entire absence of vital principles in the republican party is sadly manifest by the plaintive wail uttered by the Chicago T'ribusein behalf of Mr, Hayes.
