for that poison. Mr. J. S. Broadaway,
Photographer of this vicinity, tells us that
Protosulphate of Iron (Copperas dissolved
in water) is a sure and perfect antidote if
given iu a short time after taking the
poison. It changes instmitly the Cyanide
of Potash into a harmless compound
every trace of the Prusic Acid being neu
tralized thereby. He says he has had
cases of poisoning from drinkingCyanide

PEACE AXDGOOD WILL .
At the meeting of the American' Sfedjcal
Association, in Chicago, some days ago,
ji physician from Kentucky offered the
following resolution
Resoled, That tlie members of the
American Medical Association regard with
feelings of th deepest pride and pleasure
the sentiments of peace and uatioualitv
now existing and steadily gaining in our
great country, and that, in commencing
the second a ntnry of our national inde
pendence, wchail the present and pros
pective harm ny of the American sister
hood of States as promising the greatest
and most beneficent results to science and
humanity in :he nation.
These pacific resolutions, the Chicago
Tribune says,) were seconded by Dr. Gris
som, "the wejU-known Superintendent of
the North Carolina Insane Asylum, in a
neat and effective speech, and unanimous
ly passed." In this connection it is pro
per to state that Dr. Grissom was made a
member of the Judicial Council, a body
composed of seven distinguished members
of the mediical profession. No higher
honor than this has ever been bestowed
by the American Medical Association upon
any Southen doctor.
The doctors are a conservative class
Haying, as a profession, nothing to do
with polities, their expressions, such as
the above qujqted resolutions, are of more
real value than siniilar utterances from
political bodies. The doctors are close
to the people their daily visitations carry
ing them to the bedside and hearthstone
and they, perhaps, more than any other
class of society, are capable of reflecting
accurately the unbiased sentiments and
opinions of the masses of humanity with
whom they deal. We take the Chicago
resolutions o ' peace and good will as ad
ditional and strong evidence that the great
heart of the American people Is in earnest
in its desire for a true and lasting recon
ciliation between the sections so latelv in
arms against! each other. Hal. Xeics.

The X. Y. Journal of Commerce, speak
ing of the late discovery in this State of
frauds on the Government by Revenue
officers,' says :
"If the detectives of tlie Department of
Justice are not called off from Washing
ington, it will doubtless be found that
Government agents are at the bottom of
the illicit distilling business in North
Carolina mountains. We would hold these
men prima rijlv responsible for the crook
ed" w hiskev1 of that region. They should
be captured and punished to the full ex
tent ot the law, before the troops there
engage in another raid. Now that these
official frauds have been discovered, tbe
North Carolinians would be justly incens
ed if the soldiers shoot another citizen or
destroy another still before the revenue
service has been purged of the last of its
rascals in that State."

1AS0I &

Unanimously assigned
the
"FIRST RANK
IX THE
SEVERAL REQUISITES"
Of such Instruments!
The MASON & HAMLIN ORGAN CO.
have the honor to announce lhat the organs
of their manufacture have been unanimously
assigned "the FIRST RANK in the SEV
ERAL REQUISITES of instruments of the
class" by the Judges at the CENTENNIAL
EXHIBITION at Philadelphia, 187(i, and are
the ONLY INSTUMENTS OF THIS GEN
ERAL CLASS AWARDED THIS RANK.
This is after the severest competition by the
best makers, before one of the mo8t competent
juries ever assembled.
They have also received the MEDAL, but,
as is well known, medals of equal merit have
been awarded all articles deemed worthy oi
recognition ; so that it will be easy for many
makers to advertise that they have received
"first medals."
The differences in competing articles, and
their comparative excellence, are recognized
in the Report of the Judges, from which the
! following is an extract :
"THE MASON & HAMLIN ORGAN
CO.'s exhibit of Reed Otgans and Har
moniums shows Instruments of the
FIRST RANK IN THE SEVERAL RE
QUISITES OF INSTRUMENTS OF
THE CLASS- viz.: Smoothness and
equal distribution of tone, scope of
expression, resonance and singing qual
ity, freedom and quickness in action
of keys and bellows, with thorough
ness of wor manship, combined
with simplicity of action." Signed
by all the Judges.) The Mason and Ham
lin Organs ar- thus declared to rank first, not
in one or two respects onlv, but in the SEV
ERAL REQUISITES ot such instruments,
and thev are the ONLY ones assigned this
rank. This triumph was not unexpected, for
the Mason & Hamlin Cabinet Organs have
uniformly been awarded the. highe-t honors
in competitions in America, there having
been scarcely six exceptions in hundreds ot
