Once again, allera lapse ofsix yearsthe peo-

American. In this celebration our citizens
with one accord have j oiucd in their efforts and
contributions to render it such on one as may
leave nOne but pleasant reflections behind.—
The Committce of Arrangements have labor- _
ed with an assiduity entitled to all commen-

those minutisc of details in the programme
of ceremonies, upon the harmonious work-
ing of which so largely depends the en-

class, opinion or condition, may unite in re-

HEALTH 0F JUDGE BUTLER—We have
made no recent allusion to the state of J udgc
Butler‘s health for our knowledge of the fact
that such notices were exceedingly distaste_
ful to him. Taking advantage of his ab-
sencc, however, we would state that he left
for the Virginia Springs on Monday, and
reached Philadelphia the same day he left
home without apparent fatigue. Helms
passed a critical and trying ordeal; and al-
though .vcry far from being a well man again,
is so far restored as to encourage the hope
that he may soon resume his place upon the
bench.

BURGLARs—We observe the people of
Waterbury, and more recently the citizens of
Danbury, have been favored with a succes-
siOn of burglaries. Our proximity to Dan-
bury, with the additional attractions of a
public celebration on the ‘4th, may induce
these light-fingered gentry to pay us a visit,
and it may not be amiss for our people to
have an eye to their fastenings, their pocket
books and revolvers, while our night watch
and police force exercise their wontcd vigi-
lance.

A SPRINKLER—We rejoice in the pros-

dust of our terribly dry streets. E. Lynch

“A more perfect humbug could not wellbe

drop ofpurc champagne in the lot. Of clar-
ct, we can say but little better. We are no
' jligdge of dry goods, but every man from
ichmond in that trade laughed at the idea
of purchasing. The only really good articles
we saw were vinegar, bricks, cement and—
sand! ! Just imagine a cargo of sand for
Norfolk! What ideas can you suppose
Frenchmen have of America when they ship
40 Virginia vinegar, bricks, cement and sand!
The cargo was made up of all the unsaleable
riff ruff which has proved unsaleablc in I-Iavre

,This led us to suppose that there were more‘
pipes of brandy afloat for sale than the “Lou
Star” could rightfully fat-her. We have n‘ev'er,
seen more tricks resorted to at a bogus auci’
tion house in New York to force a sale.
regret the first cargo should have been so rig

Great: State-men.
The Springfield Republican evidently en-
tertains sentiments very similar to those ex-
’ pressed in this paper. on the point of the re-
lation of what are called “Great Statesmeu.”
to the interests of the country and the party.
It concludes an article on “Abraham Lincoln
as a Candidate”_ as follows :
No man was over yet strong before the
people in a Republican Govcrment‘who made
politics the business of life. Whether this is
right, it does not matter to inquire. The fact
is what we have to do with, and it is one of
gitat importance. " The peOple, under our
form of Government, have never come to re-
gard politics as a legitimate profession of
life. This is one of the reasons why the great
men of all parties, men who have become
great and by public service—have always
been passed over in the bestowul of the high-
est popular favors. . We always come to
question the motives of a professional politi-
cian. In fact, we come to regard it as pretty
nearly impossible for him to keep his motives
pure. We learn to look upon him as a man-
ager-for his own selfish interests—a time ser-
ver. It is not, in the popular heart, recog-
nized as the proper thing for a man to make
it a business to’acquirc that which should be
only voluntarily bestowed by the popular
hand as well deserved honor. Here then is
where Abraham Lincoln is strong with the
people of the country, as he has always been
with the people of his own State. He would
beat Douglas his own State with this advan-
tage alone—that he is in politics because the
people call him, and Douglas, is there because
he calls himself.

TIIE CATTLE DISEASE.'—-Tllc Hartford
Prose, on the the authority of acorrcspondent
staes that people have been daily visiting, for
some time past, the cattle of Thomas Cowles
and other citizens, quarantined in Burlington
sometimes coming a distance of 20 miles.—
On Tuesday, more than one hundred persons
were there, none of whom were satisfied;
some growled at the Selectmen, others at. the
Cattle Commissioners, and others at Mr.
Cowles; only one man, who owned some of
the land, appeared to be calm—“he had
known for years that this disease was coming;
his knowledge was obtained in part from rev-
elation !"
The cattle are mostly fine Durhums, and
are looking finely with the exception of two
that are sick. A dead steer had the appear-5.
ance of having been bled to death the day be-
fore. “ The carcase was examined, and
found sound in all respects except the lungs.
They were unusually large and heavy, weigh-
ing with the windpipe attached 42 pounds,
and adhered to the ribs in many places. A
portion looked badly diseased, and contained
water, or a watc substance.” The lots
were not preser‘v' for furtheI examination.
The correspondent adds that considerable
excitement is still felt.

less, in every family; dyspepsimsick headache
obstruction of the menses, ague,,and fever,
pains in the side, with dry, hacking cough,
are all the results of hepatic derangement—-
and for these Dr. M’Lane’s Pills are a sover-
eign remedy. They have never been known
to fall, and they should be kept at all times
by families. .
DIRECTIONs—Takc two or three on gomg to
bed, every second or third night. If they'do
not purge two or three times by next morning
take one or. two more. A slight Mmhfast
should invariably follow their use.
The Liver Pills may also be use where pur-
ging issimply necessary: As an anti-bilious
purgative, they are inferior to none. Audm
doses of two or three they give astonishing
’ relief to sick headache; also in slight derange-
ments of the stomach.
Purchasers will be careful to ask for DR.
M’LANE’s CELEBRATED VERMIFUGE, manu-
factured by FLEMING BROS, of Pittsburgh,
Pa. All other vermifuges in comparison are
worthless. Dr. M'Laue’s celebrated Vermi-
fuge, also his celebrated Liver Pills can now
be had at all respectable drug stores. None
genuine without the signature of
FLEMING BROS.

NATURE IS THE GREAT ansicux.——This is now
admitted by the medical profession, as a fundamenta‘
principle of healing science. It is wisely provided
by the human economy, that whenever anything is
wrong in the physical system, the natural forces of
the body are brought to bear to expel the disease.—
Thc great aim, therefore, is to strengthen the natural
powers. This has been kept in view by the skillful
compoundera of Dr. J. Hos'rETTsu‘e Burma, which
operate to give fresh vitality to all the organs of the
body. The effect of this medicine upon the stomach,
the liver and the kidneys, are prompt and decisive,—
The patient who is wise enough to quit drugging and
try the “ Bitters,” soon feels as if he had taken new
lease of life, and as he continues the use of the article
he is overjoyed to find the strolling of health coursing
through his name. Let all, from whose check the
bloom has departed, give Dr. J. Hostetter's Celebra-
ted-Bitters a trial. ‘ .
‘ Sold by druggists and dealers generally,everywhere.
