Tho Senate disonssed the resolution looking to the distribution of appoint ments in the Executive Departments, pro raia, among the States.

Mayor Gaboon refuses to give up tho office to Mayor Ellyson, elected last night by the City Cou noil. The former has sworn in 150 special constables, including twenty colored men, and the latter has 200 special of? ficers. The old police force is divided equally between the two Mayors. Elly? son has possession of tho City Hall and all othor public buildings, except the Station House, which is held by the Ca? lmen party. Gaboon wrote to Governor Walker, stated his position and asked as? sistance to maintain hisanthority. Walker replied that Ellyson, being elected under Act of the Legislature, he caunot recog? nize tiny one else as Mayor; that Cahoon is incapable of holding office under Vir? ginia laws, as ho already holds a Federal office; that no breach of the peace can occur without Cahoon's act or approval. Cahoon, with about thirty men, is be? sieged in the lower station house by the Ellyson party, who have cut off the gas ana water, and forbid any provisions to be sent there. A crowd of colored mon bought out a buko shop und commenced throwing bread up to tho windows, but were driven oft by n special police. At dark, Mayor Ellyson, Chief of Polico Poe, and others, woro arrested by the United States Marshall, for having re? fused a revenue officer permission to see Cahoon in his capacity us United States Commissioner.

CANCELLING STAMPS.-Owing to the extensivo frauds committed by the wash, restoration and use of such internal revenue adhesivo stamps as have been used and cancelled by the machine known as the "ribbon-stamp," it is ordered and proscribed by internal revenue bureau, that on and after May 1, 1870, all adhesive stamps used upon tho instruments, documents, writing and papers mentioned and described in schedule B, of the internal revonue laws, shall be cancelled by the person affixing the same, either by writing upon each and every stamp, in ink, the initials of his name and the date, year, month and day upon whioh the same is attached or used, or by cutting and can? celing the same with the machine called "Wheeler's Patent Cancelor," or such other machine and instrument as may be designated and prescribed by said com? missioners. DON'T REORET A GENEROUS ACTION. Never be sorry, then, for any generous thing that you ever did, even if it was betrayed. Never be sorry that yon were magnanimous, if the man was mean af? terward. Never be sorry that you gave. lt was right for you to give, even if you were imposed upon. You cannot afford to keep on the safe side by being mean. Yon had better, many times in your life, for the sake of keeping yourself in prac? tice of benevolence, do things that are questionable, rather than judge so nar? rowly, that you will always be on the Bide of cold calculation. Give your heart some headway, and in the long run it will bo safer for you.

AS A BLOOD PURIFIER IT HAS NO EQUAL, BEINO, POSITIVELY, The Most Po wertol Vegetable Alterative Yet discovered. DISEASES OF THE BLOOD. "The life of tho flesh ia in ibo blood," ia a Scriptural maxim that Soience proves to bo true. The people talk of bad blood aa the cause of many diseases, and, like many popu? lar opinions, thia of bad blood is founded in truth. The symptom*) of bad blood are usually quito plain. Bad digestion causes imperfect nutrition, and, consequently, the circulation is feeble, tho soft tissues loae their tone and elasticity, and the tongue becomes pale, broad and frequently covered with a paaty white coat. This condition soon shows itself in roughness of the skin, then in ERUPTIVE and ULCERATIVE diseases, and, when long conti? nued, results in serious lesiona of the Brain, Liver, Lunga or Urinary Apparatus. Mnoh, vory much, suffering is caused by impure blood. It ia estimated by some that ono-flfth of the human family are affected with Scrofula in Borne form. When tho Blood is pure, you are not so liable to any disoaae. Manv impurities of tho Blood arise from impure diseases of largo cltiea. Eradicato every impurity from the fountain of life, and good spirits, faur skin and vital strength will return to you. KO S~XO O!

Symptoms of Liver Complaint and of some of those Diseases produced by it: - A aallow or yellow color of tho skin, or yel lo wish-brown snots on the face and other parts of tho body; dullness and drowsiness, some? times headache; bitter or bad taste in the mouth, internal heat; in many caaea a dry, teasing cough; unsteady appetite; sometimes sour stomach, with a raising of the food; a bloated or full feeling abont the atomach and 1 sides; aggravating pains in the sides, baok or breast, and about the shoulders; constipation of the bowola; piles, flatulence-, coldness of tho extremities, Ac.

It does ita work tondit/, silently, and inirely. The Relief which it affords is both i certain and perceptible. DISEASES OF THE KIDNEYS AND j BLADDER. Persons unacquainted with the structure and functions of tho Kidneys, cannot estimate tho importance of their healthy action. Regular and sufficient action of the Kidneys is as important, nay, even more BO, than regu? larity of tho bowels. The Kidneys remove from the Rlood those effete mattors which, if permitted to remain, would speedily destroy life. A total suspension of the urinary dis? charges will occasion death from thirty-Bix to forty-eight hours. When the Urine is voided in small quanti? ties at the time, or when there is a disposition to Urinate more frequently than natural, er whon the Uriuo is high colored or scalding, with weakness in tho small of the back, it should not be trilled with or delayed, out Koakoo should be taken at once to remedy thc difficulty, before a lesion of tho organs takes placo. Most of tho diseases of the Bladder originate from those of tho Kidneys, the Urine being imperfectly secreted in tho Kidneys, provo irritating to the RIadder and Urinary paasages. When wo recollect that medicino never reaches the Kidneys except through the general circulation of the Blood, we seo how necessary it is to keep the Fountain of Life Pure. K O S K O O!
