James Anthony Froude iu one of his
articles intheNorth Ameru aa Review,
an "Romanism and the Irish Race in
Mhe Uuited States," makes the follow
ing remarkable declaration:
Land, properly speaking, canuot be
owned by any man. It belongs to all
tho human race. -Laws have to be
made to secure the profits' of their in
dustry to those who cultivate it, but,
the private property of this or that

with as he -pleases, land'aever ought to
be and never strictly is."
General Grant and party left Wash
ington at 5:20 p. m. in Tom Scott's
palace car and proceeded via Rich
mond, Danville, Charlotte and Colum
bia to Augusta, whence he' went to
Beaufort, S. C , to attend an emancipa
tion celebration,, and thence to Savan
nah, and thence to Feruandina, where
he takes the steamer to Havana. He
spent a few hours in Augusta, and was
enthusiastically received. ; :
There was a joker at Grant's recep
tion at Beaufort. The ex-President
had ejeprtssed a desire for a specimen
ot the phosphate fossils. A gentleman
brought him the jaw bone and the back
bone of the mecralonvx. and remarked
to him that it was a fair specimen of
I arolina chee& and back bone.

Cathartic
. Combine the choicest cathartic principles
in medicine, in proportions accurately
ail justed to secure activity, certainty, and
uniformity of effect. They are the result
of years of careful study and practical ex
periment, and are the most effectual rem
edy yet discovered for diseases, caused by
derangement of the stomach, liver, and
bowels, which require prompt and effectu
al treatment. Ayer's Bills are specially
appl icable to this class of diseases. They
a;t directly on the digestive and assim
ilative processes, and restore regular
healthy action. Their extensive use by
physicians in their practice, and by all
civilized nations, is ono of tho many
proofs of their value as a safe, sure, and
perfectly reliable purgative medicine.
Being compounded of the concentrated
virtues of purely vegetable substances,
they are positively free from calomel, or
any injurious properties, and can be ad
ministered to children with perfect safety.
Avr.n's Pills aro an effectual cure for
Coiistipationor Costiveness, Indiges
tion, Dyspepsia, Lioss of Appetite,
Foul Stomach and Breath, Dizziness,
Headache, Ivoss of Memory, Numb
ness, Biliousness, Jaundice, Rheuma
iism Eruptions and Skin Diseases,
Dropsy, Tumors, Worms, Neural
gia, Colic, Gripes, Diarrhoea, Dysen
tery, Gout, Piles, Disorders of the
I-avcr, mul all other diseases resulting
front a disordered, state of the digestive
apparatr.3, ' y
As a Dinner Pill they hare no' equal.
While .gentle in their action, these
riLL:-; arc the most thorough and search
ing cathartic -that can be employed, and
imver give pain unless the bowels aTe
inflamed, and then their influence is heal-
iag. They .stimulate the appetite and
uiosiivo organs; they operate to puniy
and enrich the blood, and impart renewed
healt h and vigor to the whole system.
