Marriage of Garibaldi.

> Garibaldis still at Fino, in the neighborhood of Como, where on the 3d instant, he met with an accident while riding on a restive horse. The news at first occasioned some alarm in Milan; but a letter from hismedical attendant, published in the newspapers, removed all apprehension. Further •evidence of the slight nature of the injuries is found in the fact that on the 6th inst. the gallent General was married, to the eldest daughter of M. Raimondi an Italian patriot, who possesses one of the most beautiful of the residence on the lake of Camo. In 1848, M. Raimondi was obliged to take flight; his property was confiscated, and his palace used by the Austrians as a barrack. Under the new regime, however, every thing has been .restored to him. Great rejoicings took place at Camo on the account of the marriage of ibis daughter to Garibaldi. (£s”Hon. Schuyler Colfax, writes to his paper, the South Bend Register, as follows in regard to the admission of Kansas: “I regret to say that it looks probable that the Democratic majority in the Senate will resist the admission of Kansas into the Union, although all parties in that Territory participated in the election of Delegates to the Constitutional Convention, in framing the Constitution itself, in voting on its adoption, and in electing the State Government unde.it. Of course all sorts of pretexts will be alleged for this rejection. But the real reason is that it is to enter the Union as a decided Republican State,, in spite of all their efforts to the contrary, to strengthen the Republican phalanx in the State two votes, and to give three Presidential votes in the great contest of 1860.”

The Lincoln-Douglas Debates.

We learn that the Republicans of Ohio are getting out a first-rate document for the campaign of 1860, consisting of the dee bates between Lincoln and Douglas in the campaign of 1858. The pamphlet will contain the seven joint discussions and the half dozen preliminary speeches on both sides, together with the-prefatory correspondence between the parties. We believe it is tile intention also to print Mr. Lincoln’s two speeches delivered in Ohio last fall, in the same volume. The copies of Mr. Lincoln’s speeches are taken from the Press trid Tribune reports, and Mr. Douglas’ from those of •the Chicago Times. Norwich (England) Mercury says that “after years of mechanical labor and mathematical tests, Mr. Janies White, of Wickham Market, has completed and has now in constant operation a self-winding clock, which determines the time with untailing accuracy, continuing a constant motion of itself, never requiring to be wound up, and which will perpetuate its movements etis long as its component parts exist.” As this would be nothing more nor less than perpetual motion, it would require more than a simple statement of this kind to prove the existence of such an instrument — New York Courier.

THE proprietors of the SATURDAY EV ENING POST—“the oldest and best of the ; weeklies” —have the pleasure to announce to the reading public, that they have made an exclusive arrangement with an author whoso powerful : Stories of lute attracted great attention; and they I will open the year 1860 with a novelet, written ■ expressly for the Post, called THE EARL’S DAUGHTERS, By the author of the “Red Court Farm,” “The Rock,” the “Hester Halliwell Stories,” “The ; Six Gray Powders,” “The Diamond Bruce- | let,” tec. In this Story, expressly written for the Post, this powerful writer’s genius has had full scope ■ afforded it, and we are able to state—having read it in manuscript, for it is already in hand—that it will make a sensation, unless we are greatly mistaken, as one of the most powerful and inter- ; esting Stories ever published. To enable those unacquainted with the Post ; to judge of the richness and variety of its general contents, we may state that during the past ! year we have published Novelets, Stories,Poems, Essays, &c., from the pens of the following gifted writers: G.

Blood Purifier and Blood Pills. A £ § % / pharmacvA DR. ROBACK’S SCANDINAVIAN REMEDIES. When Dr. Koback, the celebrated Swedish Physician introduced his Blood Purifier ar.d Blood Pills in the United States, he set forth in plain language their curative properties. This was years ago. The task of recommending them has since been taken out of his hands. Enlightened men, whose character for souiTd judgment and philosophy,gives their opinions weight in the community, men who observe, reflect, and make “assurance doubly sure” before they decide—are every where approving and urging the use of these wonderful preparations. All who confide in the wisdom and honesty of this class, or who chose to investigate for themselves are now of one mind on this important subject. Dr. Kcback invites the attention of the sick to the ORIGINAL LETTERS, from members of the Medical Profession, Editors of public journals, wellknown Merchants and Farmers, and ladies of the highest respectability, giving accounts of extraordinary cures wrought by the remedies, of which cures they themselves were EYE WITNESSES. These parties may be consulted personally or by letter, by those who have any doubt on the subject. The evidence in the possession of Dr. Roback, which is at all times accessible to the public, establishes the following FACTS: That the BLOOD PURIFIER and BLOOD PILLS have been proved by analysis to CONTAIN NO MINERAL; That they cure the almost universal complaint, DYSPEPSIA, with unerring certainty, and in a very short time. T hat after all other medicines have proved useless, they relieve LIVER COMPLAINT, and restore the health and strength of the sufferer. That SICK FEMALES, who have languished for years in helpless weakness and despondency, recuperate with great rapidity under their invigorating operation. That all sexual disabilities are removed by their cordial and gentle stimulating properties, That they recruit. SHATTERED CONSTITUTIONS. however they may have been trifled with and abused; that their direct tendency is to lengthen life, and render it enjoyable. 'J'hat, operating upon the poison of \ disease in the blood, they CAUSE SOON TO HEAL, and discharge from the system every tain t of Scrofula, whether hereditary or otherwise. T hat they RECRUIT THE DEBILITATED, " and that there is no disease of the Stomach and Bowels, the liver, the nervous system, the skin, glands or muscles, arising from impurities and obstructions of the Blood or Secretions, in which they do not give prompt relief, and, (if administered before the very citadel of lite has been invaded.) effect a painless and perfect cur e. Bear in mind that the SCANDINAVIAN VEGETABLE BLOOD PILLS are indorsed by the experience , (»f thousands of living witnesses, who, in letters, affidavits, medical works, and by word of mouth, prol claim them to be the very best preparation of the kind i ever offered lo the broken-down victims of ill health. They hunt disease through every avenue and organ of ! the system, and expel it. thoroughly and permanently. No one can doubt their superiority after one single j trial—they are not only better, but, in tact, cheaper ! than any other Pills, for it takes a less number of them i to produce a better effect. i Price of the Scandinavian Vegetable Blood Pure 1 fier, $1 per bottle, or fss per half dozen. <)1 the Scan- ■ dinavian Vegetable Blood Pills, 25 cents per box, or 5 boxes for .>*l.

Single TicKcts, $5; Six Tickets, 525. To be Drawn at Cincinnati, Ohio, ON MONDAY, JANUARY 2, 1869. rptHE great favor with which my Grand Annual JL Gift Distribution, (drawn 25th December, was received, and the fact that I was unable at that time to supply near all the tickets that were desired, has determined me to prepare a scheme that surpasses in magnificence anything that has heretofore been attempted, and affording better chances to the ticket holders to do well than could possibly be given in a scheme of less dimensions. All money received will be deposited in bank by the projector, until after the drawing, and will be returned to the persons sending it, if every thing does not take place as advertised. Persons who desire, can deposit their money in sums of fifty dollars and upwards with H. Dciime &: Co., a well-known and responsible jewelry firm in this city, who have consented to retain and take charge of all sums deposited with them until after the drawing, The total value of prizes to be distributed is One Hundred Thousand Dollars, and the number of prizes is Five Thousand, and the whole number of tickets being Twenty Thousand, there is consequently one chance in every four tickets. The drawing, as above stated, will take place on Monday, the 2d day of January, m a public hall in Cincinnati, and all the tick-et-holders who can possibly be present are earnestly requested to attend. The capital prize is the residence built and occupied by myself in Covington, Ky., opposite Cincinnati, (being the handsomest and best arranged dwelling in the city,) with grounds belonging thereto. It is fitted up with all the modern appliances of bathroom, steam-heating appliances, gas pipes throughout, with the machinery for manufacturing gas without trouble, and at a trifling expense, in fact, it combines every jhing most desirable in a residence; is situated on rising ground in the suburbs of Covington. commanding a beautiful vie w of both cities, and uniting the advantages of both town and country. The Farm of three hundred and twenty acres is beautifully located in Crawford county. Mo., in a region unsurpassed for health by any in the Union, between the Iron Mountain ami South-western Branch Railroad, and but a few miles distant from each. T he Carriage is one I had made e?;pressly for my family use, of the best materials, and with the most substantial workmanship, and cannot be surpassed by any in the Union. It has had about a month’s service—just enough to test its good qualities. The horses are in accordance with the carriage, being matches, spirited and docile, and beautifully made animals, and the harness is a set of the best silvermounted that could be made. The price (one thousand dollars) at which this entire turn-out is put up, is much less than it cost to me, and would be a bargain fur cash. T here are fifteen hundred prizes of American Gold in the scheme, in sums ranging from five to one thousand dollars each, which speak for themselves. The three Buggies and Horses, with silver-mount cd harness, worth four hundred dollars, are splendid prizes. The horses arc good, and the buggies from the establishment of I. & B. Bruce & Co., Cincinnati, one of the first manufacturers in the city. The four Pianos, worth five hundred and four hundred dollars each, have been selected by a competent judge from the largest stock in the West, and are pronounced very superior. They are all of the make of Lighte, Newton 6c Bradbury, of New York City, which are considered by competent judges to be the best now in use, and are put in the scheme at manufacturer’s prices. They can be seen at the store of C. M. Murch,74 West Fourth street, Cincinnati, O. There are twenty of Singer’s Sewing Machines, which are acknowledged by all to be the best now in use. They are put in the scheme at the prices at which they are furnished by I. M. Singer 6c Co. themselves, and range from seventy-five to one hundred and thirty one dollars each. Theie are twelve hundred Watches in the scheme, all hunting levers, and ranging in price from twenty dollars up to the Gold Chronometer Wath and Chain, worth two hundred dollars. The watches are all put down at the lowest retail price. Besides the above there are a number of silver plated Tea Sets and other Silverware, handsome jewelry, etc. Programmes containing a full list of the prizes will be sent to any one who may wish them. Agents and all persons desiring to act as such, are requested to order immediately whatever number of tickets they may wish, and be sure to say, “For your Grand Annual Distribution otherwise, tickets might be sent in my regular Monthly Enterprise.

CHICAGO PRESS & TRIBUNE, | FOR THE YEAR 1860. Denoted toffews, Commerce, Politics, Agrxoulture, Art, Science ond Literature. T'HE WEEKLY PRESS AND TRIBUNE 13 a large first-class Western- newspaper, published every Thursday morning. It is filled with valuable and entertaining matter prepared expressly for Western readers. Its editorials deal vigorously with all topics of the times, and it boldly advocates those measures and principles deemed most calculated to promote the general ■ welfare. In price and size of siieet, freshness and amount of intelligence, variety and value of I information, fullness and accuracy of commercial matter, and in whatever else goes to make up ' a first-class newspaper, we challenge comparison ' with any other journal East or West. POLITICAL ISSUES. We are entering on a year that will be mem- ; orable in the annals of American politics—the 1 year that will witness, we trust, the election of a Republican President and the national triumph of Republican principles. The great issues to be submitted to a majority of the whole people are these: Shall slavery be extended and protec- I ted by the General Government? Shull the public domain —the free Territories of the nation—• be surrendered to the blighting intrusien oi slavery? Shall the Constitution be construed to recognize and su t port slavery as a national institution? Shall a slave code for the Territories be enacted? Shall the African slave-trade be reopened? In short, shall the doctrines of Calhoun, Judge Taney and Buchanan supercede the principles of Free Government taught by Jefferson, Madison and Clay? These questions will demand a verdict at the hands of the American people. And there are other important considerations to be decided by the next campaign. .Among these are Free Homesteads for the landless, improvement of rivers and harbors, a Railroad to the Pacific on the central route, encouragement of the niauuL-.ctufing and farming industry of the country, retrenchment and reform in the Federal exoenses-—a restoration, in fact, of the spirit, simplicity and policy of the earlier and purer days of the Republic. On all these questionsand issues the Press and Tribune will occupy no neutral ground, but will ever be found an earnest champion on the side that will promote Frekmom, Progress and Prosperitv. GENERAL CONTENTS. The Literary and Miscellaneous matter is prepared with a view to making the paper a welcome family visitor, combining the agreeable and useful. A considerable amount of space is devoted to matters pertaining to Agriculture, such as publishing reports of Fairs, Farmers and Fruitgrowers’ Conventions, crop prospects and statistics, improved implements for farm use, and all other thing.; of general interest to farmers. Every issue of this paper contains a condensed review of the week, including the leading events happening in Europe and the United States, and the rest of the world. Great labor and care are expended on the Market reports. The quotations of grain, cattle, hogs, poultry, vegetables, lumber, etc., will far more than repay the reader the subscription price. A satisfactory summary of the proceedings of Congress wHI appear weekly, and the more important speeches will be published tn fit?!. The doings of the present Congress will be read with great interest by the whole country. . The Press and Tribune is a live newspaper, and keoes fully up with the progress of the times, and its publishers are resolved to make it so instructive and valuable that no “well-regu-lated” Western family can afford to be without it. A VALUABLE FEATURE. The name of every subscriber is plainly printed on his paper, and also the time when his subscription will expire. This system prevents mistakes at the postoffices, insures regularity in delivery, and must prove very satisfactory to the patrons of the paper. POSTAGE ON THE PRESS AND TRIBUNE. The lawful postage on the Weekly Press and Tribune within the State of Illinois, is only thirteen cents a year, if paid in advance; and outside of the Stale it is but twenty-six cents, if paid in advance.
