No state in this ’Juion can afford to be
without a good m'riria organization. Its
members need not be three, but it should be
well equipped and discipsned, ready for
service at a moment‘s notice. .In case it be
so, the occasion for using it may never arise.
Without it, civil power is at tines utterly
helpless. Will there never be any more
riots or sudden insurrections, or laircllimis
in this country ? Who can prophesy that
with such certainty? Is- it not well in let
occasionally a law remain upon the statute
book without repeal? Tire chief expelfies
of our National Guard are already incurr d;
the arsenal expenditures will be within r61.-
sonable bounds; we have a most excellent
body of troops. Tire law authorizes sixty
companies, but that would cost too much.
Forty good companies would be quite
enough, but a total abolition of the whole
system would be an act of great folly.

T seems that the cable telegram of June 29th, giv-

in r a list of all the prizes awarded to American
exhib tors, contained several material errors. The
gold mednlawardcd to Wheeler 8; Wilson was for
their Button Hole Machine; not for their Family
Sewing Machine. ~
At the head of Sewing Machines for the family
stands the Florence; taking precedence of all others
of all nations; thus maintaining in the great expo-
sition the rank which it has for years held at home.
It will also he noticed that the veteran inventor
Elias Howe, Jr., receives thg deserved honor ofa
'gold medal, not for his machine, but for his services
to the world as an inventor and designer.

west. on the let ofJanirary, 1867, and is fully equip.

Company has now on hand sufficient iron, ties, etc.,
to finish the remaining portion to the eastern base
of the Rocky Mountains, 21-2 miles, which is lllltil‘l'
contract to be done September lst of this year, and
it is cxpcctcdthat the entire road will be in runnina

MEANS OE THE COMPANY.

Estimating the distance to be built by the Union
Pacific to be 1,565 miles, the United States Govern-
ment issues its Six per cent. Thirty yrnr Bonds to
the Company as the road is finished :it the uvcrrirve
rate offibout $28,250 per mile, amounting to $.11.
Macon.

Tire Company is also permitted to issue its own
First Mortgage Bonds to an equal amount, and at
the same time, which by special Act of Congress
are madea First Mortgage on the entire line, the
bonds of the United States being subordinate to
them.

The Government makes a donation of 12,800 acres
of land to the mile, amounting to 20,032,000 acres,
estimated to be worth $30,000,000, making the total
resources, cxcliisivc of the capital, $118,416,000: but
the full value of the lands cannot. now be realized.

The authorized Capital Stock of the Company is
one hundred million dollars, of which live millions
have already bccu paid in, and of which it is not
supposed that more than twenty-five millions at
most will be required.

Tire cost of the road is estimated by competent cn-
giiiccrs to be about one hundred million dollars,
exclusive of equipment.

PROSPECTS FOR BUSINESS.

The railroad connection between Omahnnud the
East is now complete, and the earnings of the Union
l’hcilic on the sections already finished for the first
two weeks in May were $113,000. These sectional
earnings as the road progresses will much more
than pay the interest on the Company‘s bonds, and
the through business over the only line of railroad
between the Atlantic and Pacific must be immense.

VALUE AND SECURITY OF THE BONDS.
The Company rcspcclfnlly submit, that. the above
statement of facts l'ully demonstrates the security of
their Bonds, and as additional proof they would sug-
gest that. the Bonds now offered are less than ten
million dollars on 517milcs of road, on which over
twenty million dollars have already been expended .
—on 330 miles of this road the cars are now runZ
ning, and the remaining 187 miles are nearly
completed.

At the present rate ofpremium on gold these bonds
pay an annual interest on the present cost of

NINE PER CEN'I‘.,

and it is believed that on the completion of the road
like the Government Bonds, they will go above par.
'l‘lie'Company intend to sell but. a limited amount at
the present. low rate, and retain the right to advance
the price at their option.

HUMOR DOCTOR.

vPositive Remedy for all
kinds of Humors.

PARTICULARLY

ERYSIPELAS, NET’I‘LE BASH, SALT
‘ RHEUM, sonoruna, CARBUN-

CLES, BOILS AND FILES.

It is very easy to say of this, or any other Medicine
“It. is the very best Remedy known." It is not ai~
ways so easy to prove it. It is, however, exceed—
ingly gratifying to the proprietor of this Medi-
cine, that, while he declares to the public that this
is u'rnost wonderful and effective Specific for Hu—
mors, as stated above, be has abundant proof at.
hand to sustain him.

For sixteen years the Ilmron Dooron has been
manufactured and sold, and every year has increased
the valiic ofits reputation, and the amount of its
sales. In New Hampshire, where it wnsorigina—
ted, no remedy for Ilumors is so highly prized. An
eminent physician (now an army surgeon,) when
practicing in N. 11. purchased between fifty and six-
ty gallons of it, during some seven or eight years,
and used it in his practice. He has since then or—
dercdit for the Hospital where he was stationed.
Otlior physicians have purchased it, and have used
it in practice with perfect success. When the prev
prictor lived in New Hampshire, at Goil'stown Cen—
tre, for the space of thirty or forty miles around,
and in Manchester particularly, the Ilumor Doctor
was well known and highly valued for the numer-
ous and woudcrfulcurcs which it. effected. Though
manufactured in large quantities, the supply was
frequently exhausted, and purchasers had to wait
for more to be made. In that region some very se-
vere cases of Erysipelas wcre treated with it, and
they were cured. Erysipclas sores, or Carbunclel
-tliosc ugly- painful ulcers, were entirely removed,

wherever this medicine was faithfully used. So it

was with Scroliiia and Salt Rheum. The Humor
Doctor cured them.

Since the Proprietor‘s removal to Mclrose. Mass.,

his present residence, he has been regularly selling

it to patients who have applied to him in person,

and has been very successful in relieving and curing

them. Onc case or Erysipclas—of air old man '12

years—is worth mentioning in particular. When he

came to the Doctor's ofiicc he could only wear a pair

of old rubber ovcrsboes his feet and ankles Were so

swollen and sore. Wherrlic pulled ofi‘liis socks the

scabs crime with them, and the raw bleeding feet

were frightful to be old. Snillec it to say, that less

than one dozen bo les of the Humor Doctor (and in

a few weeks) healed up those feet and ankles, so

that they were smooth and apparently sound. The

rpan wore boots without inconvenience. Numerous

cases olpimples in theface have been treated with

this medicine, to the entire eradication of them. In

Mclrose alone, there are nrorc than a hundred per-

sons who have used the Humor Doctor, and give it

an excellent name. In all the towns around it is

well known and approved.

For the sake of showing what is thought of it, a
few testimonials are here inserted :—

MILTON GALE, ESQ” Boston.
I hereby certify that I was sorely atliicted with
boils for two years, developing themselves upon my
my body. The siiilcriugs which I cridui'cd from them
are indescribable. Sullicc it to say that 1 faith-
fully il'ICtI several of the most popular humor
remedies, but without removing the afilictiou. At
length. by the earnest request of an intimate friend
I was induced to try Dr. J. W. Poland’s Ilumor
Doctor and our very happy to attest that all my boils
were removed, rind my health was restored by rising
Dr. Poland‘s aforesaid medicine.

A. C. WALLACE, ESQ. Manchester, N. 11.
Dr. J. W. Poland, Dear Sir—I very cheerfully
give my testiinunyin favor of your Humor Doctor
as an excellent remedy for Rumors. My numerous
acquaintances in Manchester know how severely I
was alllicled with boils, and they know how perfect-
;ly good my health i.-i at present. Your Humor Doc-
‘ tor cured me. Please refer to me for particulars in
my case. A. C. WALLACE.

Manchester, N. 11., June. 11th, 1356.

MRS. WHEELER, Stoucham, Mass,

1 very confidently and earnestly recommend Dr.
.I. W. Poland‘s Ilunior Doctor as an excellent reme-
dy for lluurors, having been wonderfully benefitted
by itmysclf. My own case was a very severe and
obstiunle one. For more than two years the skin
upon the inside of both my liuuds,uud cveir down on
the wrist, was constantly cracked rind broken up, so
that l was unable louse my hands iii any kind of wet
work, and was obligedto wear gloves in sewing to
avoid getting blood upon my work. The Ilurnor
which so :iiliiercrl inc was probably a combination
of Erysipelns and Salt Rheum. My general health
was quite ppor. Soonnftcr I began to use the Eu-
mor Doctor. 'I could perceive signs of heuiing. I
continued to take the medicine till I was finally
'eurcd. My hands are now perfectly free from Illi-
inois, and to all rippcar‘ttiilius rriy whole system is
clear of it, and has live“ for several months. I used
eight lrotilus before I felt sure to give it entirely up,
but they cured nic. HARRIET WHEELER.

Dover, N. IL, July 22, 1855.

Dr. Poland—I rl'Ct‘I\'L‘d your letter enquiring as to
the etl'eels ol yourniedieinc on sea sickness. I am
happy to say iliutl think it is “the medicine" for
that dreadful sickness. I tricdvnrions prescriptions
tut found none that setilcd the stomach and cleared
the head like the IIliililil' Doctor. I felt as though I
could hardly \\‘.-IiL to get ashore, to entreut you to in-
”mind: it. inro ship cliniidlcry siores,tlr:il. it may find
its way to those who suffer upon the mighty deep
from sea sickness. If captains who lake their fariii
lies with them. or carry passengers, should try it.
tor once they would never be willing to iiinkc a ray
ngc without. it.

l have used it in my family since its introduction
to llre public; lor billion-A habits. headache, and liu
llilll's about. my children, and have always fouird it is
sure cure.

I am not fond ofliuving my name appear in pub—
lic, and would not, consent to it on any account but
to relieve the suffering; but, if the foregoing will be
