there is not a nook or corner of our laud
where they aro not found and used. Tba
salo has reached the enormous number
of Five Millions of Bot tles annually, and
it is constantly increasing. It only shows
what can be done with a really good me?
dicine, and a systematic course of mak?

the world was over so deservedly popu?

you will, among the rich or poor, and
you will always find those Bitters in use.

President Grant, about two months
ago, appointed to office a couple of bis
vulgar cousins, named Hudson, residents
of*Iowa, Ho appointed one of them,
Silas A. Hudson, Minister to Guatemala.
Silas wan at Washington during the in?
auguration, and after fixing all things
there to unit himself and his distin?
guished cousin, he returned to his home
in Burlington, where he proceeded to
set the rest of the country in order
Iowa iu particular. One of Silos' first
operations was to write the following
letter to Gen. Weaver, Assessor of Inter?
nal Revenue in the First Iowa District.
Our readers will see that the great man,
although sufferiug from nuralgy and
rumelism, was aware that the affairs of
the political world were upon his shoul?
ders:
BURLINGTON, IA., May 10, 1869.
Hon. J. D. Weaver.
MY DEAR SIR: OU tho first day of my
arrival in Washington I secured from
Gen. Grant, yours and Belknap's reten?
tion, und the right to superviso such
changes of officers, as in my best judg?
ment, would prove beneficial to the ser?
vice. I let McCrary kuow this and
turned over to him that duty for all the
counties in his district but Des Moines.
I have only ordered one chauge here so
fur, wishing to take time to make others
advisedly. You will, therefore, not make
any change here without tir?t consulting
myself, aud if yon have sent forwurd any
nan o, recall it until you seo or hear from
me.
It is very natural that Gen. Grant
should trust this duty to me, and look to
me for its proper discharge. Please au
swer mo immediately. I am suffering too
severely with nuralgy and runietism to
he able to write more at this timo. Very
truly yours, SILAS A. HUDSON.
Strange as it may seem, this lettoi
failed to impress tho Assessor of the
First District with a sense of tho vast
and awful consequence of Grant's cou?
sin. The Assessor, who undoubtedly
knew both Grant and the cousin, replieil
as follows:
BLOOMFIELD. June 8, 1869.
Hon. Silas A. Hudson, Ii arlington, Iowa,
SIR: Your letter of the 25th ult. is ro
ceived. The appointment yon usk will
not be made.
Your insoleut and dictatorial letter o
the 10th luis been laid before the Presi
dent and the Commissioner.
I consider it a gross insult to myself
aud a libel upon General Grant, whou
you affect to be able to control, becaust
of your consanguinity.
I scorn your pretended influence, nm
regard your attempt to control my offici
as an effort to iuvolve mo in dishonor
I um, sir,
J. B. WEAVER, Assessor.
We have not heard the result, but th
presumption is that the Assessor ha
been removed, for it is not to be sup
posed that Graut would suffer his den
cousin to be thus talked to with impu
ni ty.
But, now, in ull seriousness, wo as
whether the American people have ne
cause to blush and hang their bends a
having a President who bestows upo
such relation.' as this Silas A. Hjdso
not only high oCAce, but tho prerogativ
of partitioning out other offices. Wb
can read the letters above without a fee
iug of disgust toward the precious pai
of cousins, Graut aud Hudson?
Nepotism, God k;.ows, is bud er.oug
when practiced by a functionary whos
family isn't made up of vain, pretei
tiona, insoleut and arrogant fools. Win
sort of creature is this Silas A. Hudso
to bo a foi oigo minister? What sort?
a thing is bo to have, before starlin
upon his mission, the distribution of ii
tin' offices of u great State?
W? wonder if this wretched "thing
my," willi his "neaurulgy" and "rumi
li.-m," was guilty of falsehood in pr<
tending that he was authorized by li
cotisiu Grunt to deal out ull the los
o Hi ees according to his own plousur
We don't think that ho lied in the mc
ter. If he did, why doesn't his cons
Grant remove the absurd and ridiculo
rascal from the Guatemala Miuistershi]

Colonel Northrop, tho Confederate Com
oslas* ry-Genaretl.
"The same blind obstinacy makes Da?
ria answerable for tho cruelties practiced
u pim the Uni?n prisoners. One of his
favorites was Colonel Northrop, the Con?
federate Commissary-General, who ap?
pears to have been, previous to the war,
a Thomsonian physician at Charleston.
He was an ill-natured, capricious man,
and the horrible sufferings of the Union
prisoners were, according to Mr. Pollard,
owing altogether to his perversity. Bnt
Davis kept him in office in spite of all
opposition, just as he also kopt ia office
tho notorious Winder, and he cannot es?
cape responsibility for tho deeds of such
agents."
We take this extract from tho New
York Weekly Sun. It must bo the spawn
of some ignorant sophomore or hireling
local, who recognized in Mr. Pollard a
coogenial fellow. We would pass it by
unnoticed, but it has been called to our
attention by a Northern subscriber, and
a constant friend of our paper. We,
therefore, write upon it the word
"False," in our blackes* type.
Colonel Northrop was a Carolinian of
revolutionary ancestors. We caro little
for blood. It is the merit of tho man
assailed in this libel which we deem it
our business to defend. He was a class?
mate of Jefferson Davis, at West Point,
and a captain in tho old army. Wound?
ed in the West, he was retired on half
pay, aud lived quietly on his means, in
Charleston, uutil the breaking out of the
war. This community knows that he
was a mun of aeknowledged ability and
unflinching integrity. If he had not his
faults, he would not hnvo been a man;
but who will cost tho Grst stone? A bro?
ther-in-law of Ibo late distinguished Dr.
John Bellinger, he became u physician
of some skill, for the solo purpose of un?
obtrusive charity. He pructiced largely
in his neighborhood, without charge,
and many of the poor laboring men and
womcuof this city remember him to-day
in their humble prayers. His sei van ts
will all testify that he was a kind und in?
dulgent master". Ho accepted tho com?
missariat, aud labored faithfully in that
office. However his subalterns may
have plundered and grown rich, he
maintained tho severest economy nud
most scrupulous accountability. He re?
ceived the official compliments of the
Confederate Congress, and now lives in
Virginia, iu reduced circumstances, but
honorable independence. He is not
ashamed, in his old nge, to till his own
fields. Ho was well-to-do, and might
have made his millions, ns others less
able have done. In all his poverty, he
is richer in thc wealth of his character
than the nabobs or shoddies of tho war.
We challenge tho ?9**71 to point out an-1
other man iu high office, on either side,
who furnishes better evidence of unsul?
lied reputation or sterling honesty. No
guilt, public or private, can be laid at his
door, and we hope that he will pardon
something to our natural indignation,
and tho request of a Northern friend, if
these lines should meet his eye. The
Sun has forgotten tho injunction "Thou
shalt not beor false witness against thy
neighbor."-Charleston Gazette.
RELEASED FKOM CUSTODY.-The Sa?
vannah Republican, of Sunday, publishes
tho following account of J. Hollis Rivers,
charged with thu murder of Captain
George C. Hey wurt! :
Captain George C. Hey ward was mur?
dered near Bluffton. Beaufort District,
South Carolina, on tho 1 si. dav of March,
1867, aud on the 18th of April, 1868, Ja?
cob Hollis Rivers was urrested by the
military authorities without an affidavit
or warrant, aud taken from his home in
irons, without being allow cd the privi?
lege of employing counsel or consulting
with his friends, and incarcerated in a
dungeon at Castle Pinckney, where he
remained until some time iu August of
the same year, being in the meantime
subjected to frequent examinations by
perseus calling themselves detectives,
when General danby, who was then in
command of that military district, placed
him in the custody of a friend to bo
turned over to tho civil authorities. He
then entered into bonds with security,
for his appearance at the next term of
tho Court of General Sessions at Beau?
fort. He appeared at that term of said
court, and although the grand jury de?
clined to fiud a true bill against him for
tho murder of Captain Hayward, ofter
hearing all tho testimony brought to
their notice, the Judge refused to dis?
charge him from his recognizance.
Rivers appeared at tho next term of tho
court, and reruaiued in attendance until
the grand juiy was discharged, without
fioding a bill of indictment uguinst him.
His counsel again moved tho court to
dischurgo him from his recognizance,
which motion was again overruled.
Rivers having a largo and helpless fa?
mily, who were solely dependent on the
proceeds of his labor for subsisteroe,
engaged in the business of rafting lum?
ber from South Carolina to Savannah.
On the 3d day of May last, tho Govern?
or of South Carolina issued his procla?
mation, offering u reward of $l,Ou() for
the arrest of tho murderer or murderers
of Captain Heyward, with evidence to
convict. On the 18th day of May last,
Rivers wo? arrested on the Savannah
River, about four miles below thu city,
and committed to the County jail to
await a requisition from the Governor of
tho State of South Cand?na, where ho
remained until yesterday, when Richard
J. Davunt, Esq., of South Carolina, his
attorney, in connection with Messrs.
Jackson, Lawton & Basinger, procured
the issue of n writ of habeas corpus, upon
which ho was brought beforo Judge
Sch ley, at chambers.
After hearing the return of tho jailer,
and being fully advised in the premises,
Judge Schley ordered that tho petition?
er, jacob Hollis Rivers, bo released from
custody and sot nt liberty, and that tho
costs incurred by tho arrest and deten?
tion of tho said Jacob Hollis Rivers be
tared against the prosecutor, James Hey?
ward.

AYER'S SARSAPARILLA,
FOR PURIFY ING THE BLOOD.
THE reputation this
excellent medicine en?
joys, ie derived from its
cures, many of which
aro truly marvellous;
inveterate cases of Scro?
fulous Disease, where
the system seemed sat?
urated with corruption,
have been purified and
cured by it. Scrofulous
RfTectionB and disorders
which wero aggravated by tho scrofulous con?
tamination until they were painfully afflicting,
have boon radically cured in such great num?
bera in ahnest overy section of tho country,
that the public scarcely need to be informed of
ita virtues or uses.
Scrofulous poison ia one of tho most destruc?
tivo enemies of our race. Often, thia un.- ern
and unfelt tonaut of thc organism undermines
tue constitution, and invites tho attack of en?
feebling cr fatal diseases, without exciting a
suspicion of its presence. Again.it soema to
breed infection throughout the body and then,
on some favorable occasion, rapidly develop
into one or other ot ita hideous forms, either
on tho surface or among tho vitale. In the
latter, tubercles may be suddenly deposited in
the lungs or heart, or tumors formed in the
liver, or it shows its presence by eruptions on
tho akin, or foul ulcerations on some part of
the bodv. Hence tho occasional nae of a bottle
of this" SARSAPARILLA is advisable, even
when no activo symptoms of disoase appear.
Persons afflicted with the following complaints
generativ tind immediate relief, and at length
cure, by th" use of thia SA RSA PA R ILLA : St.
Anthony's Fire, Rose or Erysipelas, Triter. Sall
Rheum, Scald Read, Ringworm, S<,re Eyes,
Sore Ears and other emptions or visible forms
of Scrofulous disease. Also, in tho moro con?
cealed form?, aa Dyspepsia, Dropsy. Reart Dis?
ease, Fits, Epilepsy, Neuralgia and the various
Ulcerous affections of the muscular and nerv?
ous sterns.
Syphilis or Venereal and Mercurial Diseases
are cured by it, though along timo is required
for subduing these obstinate nm Lobes by any
medicine. But long continued une of this me?
dicine will cure the complaint. Lcncorrhoa or
Whites, Utei ine Ulcerations, and Female Dis?
eases, aro commonly soon relieved and ulti?
mately cured by its purifying and invigorating
effect.* Minute directions in each case are found
in our Almanac, supplied gratis. Rheumatism
and Gout, when caused by accumulations of
extraneous matters in tho blood, yield qnicltly
to it, ns also Liter Complaints, Torpidity, Con?
gestion ot Inflammation of tho Liver hno Jaun?
dice, when arising, aa they often do, from tho
rankling poisons in tho blood. This SARSA?
PARILLA IR a groat restorer for tho strength
and vigor of the system. Those who aro Lan?
guid and Listless'. Despondent. Sleepless and
troubled with Nervous Apprehensions or Fears,
or any of tho affections symptomatic of Weak?
ness, will tlnd immediate relief and convincing
evidence of its restorative power upon trial.
