It is one of the unhappy consequences of
war that extravagance and corruption are
introduced into almost every department of
public-and private business, by the unusual
and enormous expenditures which astate of
Warirendcrs necessary. This is not all.
The confidence of people in each other is
weakened to a lamentable, and often to an
entirely unjustifiable extent: until, finally
it seems to be sufficient for any one to be
accused of anything to convict him in the
estimatipn of many. A man whose reputa-
tion has stood high and unsullied from a
quarter to half a century may be charged
with any offence whatever by the veriest
scoundrel and liar, and people will listen to
the charge, and some will believe it, on
such worthless and incredible testimony.
We think that greater caution should be
practiced in giving heed to stories emanating
from such sources. We think that when a
man has built. up a g nod character, it should
require something m re than the malignant
insinuations of the: .vious and the jealous
to destroy, or even i = pair it. '
It is but simple f ;stice that strong and
conclusive evidenct should be required be-~
fore we witdraw our confidence from those
in whom it has been long reposed. Repu-
tation should not be 'held at the mercy of
every evil tongue; Ill may be -spoken of
any oneg but speaking and proving are two
very different things; and we .should not
permit the faith and confidence, which it
has required years to build up and establish.
to be toocasily shaken.

lated , not only on presenting a unique enter"
tainment to their numerous friends at
Sturges Hall Wednesday and Thursday
evenings, but on the pecuniary success at-
tending it. The hall at one end was arrang-
ed to represent a kitchen of ye olden time,
with the great high mantel, stepping stone,
warming pan, ancient furniture, &e. &c. In
a huge fire place were those appliances yet
to be seen in some of Our older houses, the
antiquated andirons, tongs, shovel, crane
and tramel and hooks. Mrs. Andréss God-
frey sat at a spinning wheel and spun
thread from flax, at the same time explain-

self was looked for'but did not come. A

SYMPTOMS. of colonial]
BY DR. ROWE.
The symptoms of catarrh in its most acute
stage are those ofa severe cold,so much so
that many imagine they are suffering from a
severe cold,anrl wonder why it is that instead
of its wearing away they should b6 constant-
ly adding to it, by taking fresh cold as W
imagine; for the slightest exposure to a dr t
or inclement weather, the wind merely
blowing on some aggravates thc'symptoms
and gives to it. the appearance of having ta-
ken fresh cold. Under this impression noth-
ing is done for it more than the ordinary
remedies for a cold, whith, of course, are at
such a time, ineffectual, and when it is
found they are of no avail, not knowing
what to do, nothing further is done,but wait
for the cold to wear away, believing that it
ultimately will. Alas! how many there are
who wear away with it. In some instances
after a time the more violent symptoms of
its acute stage cease, and indeed for a time
it‘seems as though it were getting better.
For this delusive hope the patient often pays
dea rly,'.ls it is generally the calmbefore the
storm. Inhidious as its offspring, Consump-
tion, it is growing worse, needing but some
slight irritating cause, and when expected
least, to return, not only in its former state,
but in a worse form. And so, from time,
now securing better, and again worse, pa-
tients are invcigled into the belief that it
will not seriously injure them, until it show
what inroads it has been making on the
system, and that: while apparently slumber-
ing it has been most active. Unfortunately
this is often realized too late, very often not
until the patient is actually in consump-
tion. ‘
As it progresses, it produces a feeling of
uneasiness, heat and stiffness of the nostrils
which are often closed on one or both sides
caused by a thickening of the membrance
from inflamation. Usually a thin watery
discharge commences, cxcoriating that part
of the skin with which it comes into con-
tact. So acrid is the discharge in some
cases that the upper lip and edges of the
nostrils present the appearance of erysipclas
so much so, indeed, that I have known in-'
stances where they have been treated for it.
And numerous We been those who have
come under my ic.e of mm whose upper
lips had become so excoriated as to render
shaving an absolute impossiblity. Some
of these had been treated for the “ barber’s
itch.”
The discharge after a time becomes thick,
either white or of a purulent greenish yel-
low color, and at times tinged with blood.
As the disease progresses it becomes more
purulent, with an odor more or less dis-
agreeable, at times very offensive—so much
so, that after it. time the breath becomes re-
voltingly offensive. Now it is when there
is danger ofthc septum or division of the
nostrils being eaten away. A
The discharge either flows from the nose
or drops into the throat, causing a tickling
feeling, with a constant desire to swallow
and clear the throat, and has to be hawkcd
up in order to obtain relief. There is usual-
ly great difficulty in raisingit, more parti-
cularly in the morning. Owing to its gluti<
nous nature it adheres to the membrane,
and it is only after much effort that it is dis-
lodgcd,.the effort to accomplish which not
unfrcquently producing ga ging or retcb-
ing with nausea. '
In time the senses of smell and taste be-
come greatly impaired and entirely lost. As
the frontal sinuses become involved, a dis-
tressing headache, or a dull, heavy pain
a
$500 RE W ARD‘i-over the forchaeds makes its appearance,
and neuralgic pains in the face and head as
the other sinuses b‘ecomc affected. After a
while the memory becomes impaired, a
restless nervous feeling accompanying it,
seriously interfering with application to bu.
siness or study; with some general restless-
ness of the mind.
At night sleep is often interrupted by the
constant falling of mucous into the throat
producing a tickling feeling or of choking,
or by a sensation of drynessin the 'mouth and
throat, with fe'verishness and thirst. Others
again are excessively drowsy,more especially
during the day after eating; or, if attempt-
ing to read, “the letters all run together,” as
patients express it, and in a. few moments
the book or paper has fallen from their
hands, and they are fast asleep, from which
they awake more frequently with a dull,
stupid feeling than refreshed.
On rising in the morning, very often the
tongue will be coated and a disagreeable
taste in the mouth, accompanied sometimes
with nausea and- dizziness. At such times
there is not apt to be much appetite for
breakfast. .
The majority of persons suffering from
Catarrh are costive or constipated in their
bowels. The face,withgome, will suddenly
become flushed and hot. Stooping to pick
up anything will produce dizzinc s, with
pain in and over the eyes and with specks
floatin re them.
Whe e infldmation extends through
the tear-passage to the eye, it inflames that
organ, causing the tears to flow, upon the
slightest irritation or exposure, producing
. what is generally called “weeping eye." If
it extends through the eustachain tube to
the middle car, it produces noise in the car,
with ultimate deafness. As it extends’to the
throat, it gives rise to dyspepsia, bronchitis,
and finally to consumption. The experience
and investigations of the greatest savans in
medical science have fully established the
fact that in fully two.thirds of the cases of
consumption it commenced by infiamation
of the air passages, which is Catarrh

D3. Roman—Dear Sin—It gives me pleas-
ure to write you of the permanent cure
I have received from your Judictous
and successful treatment of Cat rrh, from
which I have suffered so _ ml ch. That
which I called a “severe cold in the head,”
had increased its 'severity, year by year,
until the Autumn I first called on you. At
that time, I was convinced that a longer
neglect must inevitably lead to the disease
of my lungs as my throat was already affect-
ed consrderably and severely, and my phy-
sical strength generally impaired. I had no
knowledge of you beyond a treatise of yours
which I had read, and I may add, that the
prejudice natural to one strictly educated to
the views of the regular practice, did not
aid me in seeking one of whom I knew so
little. But I was unable to find any help
through the ordinary treatment of catarrh,
and therefore followed my inclination and
went to you. Iwas satisfied after the ap
plication of your medicines, that if a cure
coul,d be effected, your method could do it.
I ha vc carefully followed your directions,
and bough from its long standing and
severity of my case my recovery has been
slow, I am happy many it has been sure,
and I cannot but wish for all who are suffer-

reliefby your sure, sensible and and certain
help. Yours, respectfully.
