My son was the victim of Malaria, deep-set, by living in Florida two years, and the Antidote has done more than five hundred dollars’ worth of other medicines could have done forhim. I have had one of my neighbors try the medicine, and it cured him immediately. I now recommend it to every one suf- fering from Malaria. Respectfully yours, W. W. MONROE. GONE WEST. Dr. Sidney McFarland, Jr., the son of Mr. Sidney McFarland, one of the best and well known citizens in the city, left the city for California last Wednesday evening.

Dr. McFarlsnd having conceived the idea of going West, he resigned his clerkship to go there to practice his profession and seek a fortune. He leaves a num who regret his departure and whose society they will miss, as he was quite pop- ular in the best society of the city. He has the congratulations of the BEE and its hope that he will sue- ceed in his new field of labor, ———— +> NEWPORT, R, I. Miss Louisa Smith was in New- port, R.I., this week.

She has made arrangements for the production of one of her dramas at the Opera House in this city. CANNOT WITHDRAW. Ep. Bre:—You suggest, on ac- ing represented on Gen’] Ordway’s staff, that they withdraw. You eau’t withdraw from the military years, as has been done by all who have joined the militia. It is not like a nominating convention, and besides Gen’l Ordway has not choosen a member of his staff from any of the District organizations, yet with you, I should liked to have seen any one of our compe- tent officers recognized. MILITIA. THE WASHINGTON BEE. (From the Alabama Advocate.) The Washington Brg extended | courtesics to us while in Washing- ton; that will ever be appreciated, It withheld no information that wus of use tous. Fvery time we went, as directed by the Bx, suc- cegs was the result, We congrat- ulate ourselves upon securing the advice of the able and powerful Negro editor of a spicy, newsy paper, for he is, unquestiona- bly, a man of magnificent ability. There is always about his writings an elevation of style, a dash and sweep and certitude of strength jthat makes his articles vigorous and grand, and frequently, elo- quent and beautiful. ee ee OURCADETS. The excursion to Frederick, Md., of the Washington Cadet Corps, and the Butler Light In- fantry Corps, on Monday next August 11, promises to be one of the greatest affairs ot the season, The committees of both organi- zations are working like beavers, in spite of the warm weather, and tickets are selling rapidly. One of the great attractions of the trip is the fact, that all the color- ed militia of Baltimore will be encamped in Frederick, Md., from {the 9th until the 16th inst., at the Fair Grounds, where the emanci- pation celebration will be held, and will assist in receiving and entertaining the visiting military and friends from Washington. the family excursion will be a ny \ The Cadets have an unbroken Louisiana; Georgia; “Gold Eagle,” Tenn; record for good order upon all of their excursions and at all of their entertainments, which is a guar- antee to all who may feel inclined to visit this beautiful and historic city Ou this occasion, Ample ar- rangements have been made by the local committee to feed all the visitors well and at remarkably low prices.
