The Richmond Slate correspondent
gives two interesting items in ' his
letter'of, the 21st:
! "Gen. Bragg, of Wisconsin, intends to
follow up his opposition to war claims by
introducing a constitutional amendment to I
cut them all oft.
."Hendrick B. Wright, who deserted to
the Greenbackers for the sake ef a nomina
lion for Speaker, deserted them and took
part in the Democratic caucus." j
. Hon. F. E. Shober got the second
,bp8t appointment at tho disposal of
.the Senate, that of Chief Clerk,
" through the eood management of
Senator Ransom "says tho Washing-
ton correspondent or tho Kichmond
State. Gen;' Ransom has great ioflu
ence among Senators, and the man or
cause is fortunate that commands his
support ' and management. ,'Mt.
Shober is an excellent gentleman,
genial and kindly. '
' John E.t Burch, the. successful can
didate for Secretary of the Senate, is
thus briefly sketched by the Wash-
ington correspondent of the Kich
mond State: v I
"Burch gathered in some of the scatter-
ug votes on each ballot, and at the last

nity, fine presence, and good address, and
has abundant means. His reputation for
political management gave him strength
beiore the caucus, because the secretary
suip is a position or great partisan import
ance and influence. j
- Washington correspondent of

remarks were made about him. 'One of

A WORD WITH PRACTICAL PEOPLE. The
climate of some parts of the South seems to pecu
liarly foster three special scourges of the general
health; these are yellow fever, periodically; mala
rial fever and consumption or premature decline al
ways. The result of all of them, when not rapidly
fatal, Is complete prostration of the whole system,
and inmost cases utter inability to derive restora
tion from the nourishment of ordinary food. Then
the doctors all say the only thing the stomach, and
pancreas, and liver, can accent and turn into vitali
sing blood and solid fibre is COD LIVER (OIL, or
rather SCOTT'S EMULSION OF THE OIL with
the HYPOPHOSPHITES OF LIME AND SODA.
This Is a finer nutrient than the Oil alone, and is
besides a splendid tonic and then it has not the
least disagreeable, taste or odor, and la acceptable to
the most sensitive stomach;
