They are exceedingly P. ‘gereeable, perfectly pure, and must supercede all > ad 7 othertonics where a healthy, gentle stimulant is required, They purify, strengten and invigorate, They create a healthy appetite. hey are an antidote to a change of water and diet. They overcome effects of dissipation and late hours. They strengthen the system and enliven the mind, They prevent miasmatic and intermittent fevers They purify the breath and acidity of the stomach, They cure Dyspepsia and Constipation, They cure Diarrhea, Cholera, and Cholera Morbas. They cure Liver Complaint and Nervous Head- ach” They make the weak strong, the languid bril- jant, and are exhausted nature’s great restorer, They are composed of the celebrated Oalisaya Dark, wintergreen, sassafras, roots and herbs, all preserved in perfectly pure 8t.

BALTIMORE, Oct. 14.—The returns of the election on the adoption of the new Constitu- tion are, so far, very incomplete, but, accord- ing to the reported and estimated vote, there appears to be a majority of about three hun- dred against it. It is thought, however, that the soldiers’ vete will more than counter- balance this deficiency. The result cannot be known till to-morrow. oe OHIO. CLEVELAND, Oct. 14.—The latest returns show that the Democrats have elected Le Blond in the 5th district and Finck in the 12th.

A despatch from Major Williams, of the 10th Kansas, says he had taken sion of Pilot Knob.

In alate number of the Gardener’s Chroni- cle the Kev. Mr. Berkly well remarks that it is curious how little has been aoue by physio- logists with regard to the changes which take place in fruit afterit has arrived atthat de- gree of maturity when it either separates from the stalk, or when it has arrived at such @ state as makes it necessary for the hortical- turist tosecure hiscrop. The changes§which take place in growing fruit have been tosome extent investigated, but the changes which take place after the fruit is gathered are en- veloped in obscurity, M.Cabours has shown thatripeapples absorb oxygen and give out carbonic acid, and the higher the tempera- ture of the room ihe more carbenic acid is evolved. Heturther says that “in fruit like Services or Medlars where the process of bletting [formation of spots on fruit when de- composing] takes place, and without which the fruit is not eatable, itis only after vitality has ceased that the requisite chemical changes for economical purposes takes place, changes which are sometimes promoted, or at least at- tempted to be promoted by sprinkling the fruit with some fermented liquor. Air then enters the cellsand acts first of all upen the sugar, causing the alcoholic termentation with disengagement of carbonic acid and formation of alcohol, which is in its turn acted upon by the acids of the fruit. The air then attacks the celliteelf, which becomes colored yellow by the azotized membranes of which itis formed.’” It would be a great boon to horticulturists if some good chemist and physiologist would turn bis attention to this matter.

RAID oN THE BALTIMORE AND OHIO RalL- ROAD—TRAIN OF CARS DESTROYED.—The ex- press train, consisting of three passenger cars, express and mail car, and baggage car, that left Camden Street Depot on Thursday night last for Wheeling and intermediate points on the line of the road,was stopped by a band of Tebel cavalry, commanded by Colonel Moseby, when between Kerneysville and Martinsburg. The time the train was stopped was about 2 o’clock on Friday morning, and the place was quite propitious for such work, poate being no telegraph station or guard of any conse- quence in the vicinity. A large number of the passengers were emigrants. The passengers were allowed to remove their baggage trom the cars, and thenthe engine was thrown from the track and the careburntup. The exprees car was robbed of all valuables, and the mail ‘was ransacked and then destroyed. Some of the passengers were robbed of their yaluahles, but this, it is stated, occurred only in a few in- stances. As soon as the train was burnt np, Moseby, with his band, left for parts unknown. The telegraph wires and the railroad track were not troubled by them. None of the passengers received any injury, nor did Moseby take any of them prisoners. Mr. Lewis M.Cole, Gene- ral Ticket Agent of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company, was on the train; he did all in bis power to save the train, but was unsuce cessful. He, together with the other passen- gers, reached Cumberland yesterday afternoon, on the mail train that left this city for the West yesterday morning,the passengers having been taken on board this train at the point where they were left by Moseby. All the trains both ascengers and freight, are running on regular ime, apd a large force of Federal troops are ited along the line of the road. General ite venson, commanding at Harper's Ferry,has sent a large cavalry forcein pursuitof Moseby and his command.—Baltimore Sun, ALEXANDRIA AFFAIR 8.—Gone to the Front.— The forces organized in the Quartermasters Department of this city started for the front esterday, under special orders from the War Department. They are to operatealong the line of the Orange and Alexandria and Manassas Gap Railroads. They number about seven hundred well drilled men, uuder the direction of their commander, Col. Whytal, and we doubt not they will do good service. They were accompanied by eight hundred men, equally as well drilled from the (juartermasters De- partment in Washington. Extensive Revivals. —Interesting revivals are going on at the Methodist Episcopal and Methodist Protestant Church on Washington street. At the former church, twenty-five conversions have already taken place, and the altar is aur crowed with prnitents. The Rey. W. M. D. Ryan, of Washington, will reach at this church to-night. Great success as also attended the efforts of the minister and members of the M. P. Charch, and ‘a large number of penitents have been converted. + Appointed.—Capt. James Treakle, of this city, has been appointed by the Secretary of the Treasury keeper of the light noat at Upper Cedar Point, on the Potomac.—Journal 14th Curious Feat in PuysioLocy.—It is are- markable fact that persons losing themselyes in the forest, or in a snow storm, manifest in- variably a tendency to turn round gradually to the left, to the extent even of eventually mov- ing in a circle. The explanation of this Is found probably in the fact that the limbs and muscles of therightside are more developed than those of the left side. Shoemakers say that, as a general thing, the right foot is some- what targer than the left, and that the right boot wears out first, Under the excitement felt when one is lost, and in the absence of any guiding line, the s 7 eel energy of the right limbs throw the pedestrian insensibly round on the left. It may also be remarked that in the ancient religious ceremonies of every coun- try circular or choric dances were a prevalent, custom. Corn Foppkr.—There is considerable dis~ cussion as to the best method of curing ‘corn fodder;’”’ that is, the slender unripe stalks which are produced by sowing corn thickly broadcast or in close drills. Thedifficulty is so great as to condemn entirely such a method of apn hipped pee It is better to — cal es, millet or sorghum; or age ter still to plant the corn so thinly that it wilh ripen. “Corn fodder” is valuable for soiling OF for supplying the deficiencies of pastaresdur- ing the dry season; but for winter use it is not equal to the wel field crop; ears, stalks and pump sins. 0 A curious thieving OP. “ been brought to light in lew Yors: rdpomea employed in an upper of a Phage dom Y See ee en lonbpoin wi? been cloned ee 4 yup bundles he lays his rT with and he wags his tail!” It was the dog!
