A Out of ten thousand regular physicians you caa- Rot find ene who will not say that S:imusanis and Invigorants are absolutely necessary in medical practice, And yet in by-gone years humane prac- titioners have hesitated to administer them, be- eause the fiendish incenuity of wretches who make merchandise ef human infirmities, had so polluted and deteriorated them that the remedy was deemed asdangerous as the disease. This perplexity is happily done away with. Physicians know, be- cause the first analytical chemists of the age have demonstrated the fact, that Hosrktrgn’s CELs- BRATED STOMACH BiTTERS are absolutely and en- tirely free from all pernicious elemente.

The taid before the board 8 communi- cation from Justice John H. J sug- Besting the passage of resolutions expressive of the 8 of the board in regard to the re- | rebellion. He encloses the following resolu~ tions for the action of the board: Whereas the iate calamitous event whicB bas afflicted the loyal people of the country demonstrates beyond reasonable doub: the ex- istence of a formidable, well-organized and preconcerted plan to murder the Presidect. Vice President, and the Cabinet officers, for the of jucing anarchy fn the civil ranks and confusion and insubordination in the army, aud thereby eabverting the Govern- ment; ani | Whereas the recent fall of Charleston and johmond, the capitulation of Gens, and fohniston, resulting in the total dfsrdption of the rebel , Will entail upon Oar commu- nity a large accession of crupulous traitors and assassins, who left t! homes and busi- ness at the thresbold of the rebellion. de-~ nonncing in their exit the Government under ‘whose benificent care and patron: they be- came rich and insotent, and now, Judas like, they come back tosgasert their loyalty +. hearts are hypocrites: izenship, but in it therefore Resolved, ty the Board of Aldermen, dc. That we view with feelings of mingled distrust and contempt the return to our community of per- fons who deserted the Government in the hour oft imminent peril, and identified themselyes ‘with treason and trailors, who long before planned the destruction of the Repaubiic, and have, by their acts of crueity to our prisoners and barbarous conduct to unprotected Union men and women, alienated themselves from us, and for¢eited all confidence and respect for themselves as men, which is enough to ostra- cise them from civalized society. Resolved, That in reflecting the wishes and sentiments of the loyal people of Washington city, on the foregoing subject, and their desire to abstain from acts of just indignation, and with a view to conserve the public peace and revent public manifestations of popular vio- lence, which the presence of such persons in our midst under present circumstanc:s are Well calculated to excite; we, therefore, ad- monish and warn ali such not to return here. but to remain at their respective rendezvous of treason, until their crimes are dealt with according to law. Resolved further, Thatin this proceeding we disclaim all feelings of persoual animosity to- ‘ward any man; that we have no private per- sonal wrongs to redress, real or imaginary; but we fee) constrained to say, in view of 80 many reasons and considerations that could be adduced in proof, that the Arrival and domicil here of men whose infamous notoriety im«the rebel cause has rendered their names and, deeds execrable, would be productive of great evil, and probably a repetition of the atrocious crime which has rendered the lith day of April, 1865, memorable tor all time to come, Mr. Peugh thonght tht in the least the proposition of Mr. Johnson was a great piece of presumption on his part, amounting todown right impertinence. e endorsed the sent ments contained in them but thoughtthe mem- bers could prepare their own resolutions. He moved that they be laid on the table. Mr. Ferguson said there were some good sen- timents contained in the resolutions and if the Board were not ready to pass them they should be referred toa committee which would report promptiy. Mr. Rheem did not see what the Board had to do with Mr. Johnson; the members he be- lieved were competent to draftgheirown reso- lutions. Mr. Larner suggested that the committee on police could sift out anything objechonable if there was any, and moved that the snbject be soreferred it was high time, in bis opinion, that the corporation had expressed their views on this subject as ether corporations in this sec~ tion of the country had done. He had seen enough to make the blood boil—these men going into our public departments and walk- ing throngh the streets, shaking hands witb men who profess to be loyal, receiving wel- comes, These mea now come among us after having done all they could against us, and he thought that some action should be taken, and that promptly. Mr. Ruff said that some of these men had gone South for no other purpose but to pilot the enemies of the Union into the city, and to apply the torch to our dwellings. They were the same men who four or five years since made it unsafe to be ontafter sundown. The members were all aware that at the polls in those days the party who had the pelice on their side, stood ready to knock any man, who differed from them in sentiments, down, have him dragged off by a partizan policeman before a partizan magistrate, and sent up toa parti- zan court to be tried by 8 partizan jury. They were a class of men who carried short muskets through the streets, hid under their coats, ready toshoot down any who dared tosay a word againt their principles. These men are now being welcomed back by some of our professediy loyal citizens, but he never could countenance them. He moved that the subject be referred to a select committee of seven, of which the President shail be chairman. Mr. Larner accepted the amendme: Mr. Rheem said that he did not wish to be understood as objecting to the resolutions, but only as to the manner in which they came before the Board. Mr. Moore thought the resolutions went be- yond the powers of the corporation, and they Amounted to puffing against the wind, and the suggestion was asilly one. It was forthegen- eral government to say whether these persons shall come here and the corporation could not prevent it. In his opinion the proposition in- vited the authorities to take the matter into their own hands and place themselves at the head ofamob. They would bein place ata public meeting but not here. Mr. Peugh said his blood, too, had been made to boil toa very high heat when he saw thee men 60 well treated, but he could not lend his hand toa thing periectly absurd. The ques- tion is how came these men here! They were allowed to do so by the Secretary of War, and he did not see what right the councils had to say that they shall not stay here. These men had been paroled to goto their homes. Mr. Larner stated that the resolutions had come before the Board properly—they were sent asa petition from one of the chairman’s constituents, and he, as he should have done with any petition that was respectful, bad laid it before the Board. He did not like tu see technicalities raised when other corporations had acted Mr. Ruff said that as for these men having been paroled and sent to their homes they haa none here. They had left their homes bere and chosen them in the South—let them go there. The motion to refer toa special committee was carried by the following vote: Yeas—Messrs. Davis, Dudley, Edmonston, Ferguson, Kelly, Larner, Pettibone, Peugh, Rheem, Ruff, Simms, Swain, Talbert, and the President (Mr. Lloyd)—i4. Nays—Messrs.
