NASAL CATARRH
AND ITS EFFECT UPON
THE STSTEM.
Catarrh'conslstsonnflamroatlon beginning
behind and a little above tbe veil of tbo pal
ate. and extending upward into the nos<
and air cavities of tne face. It creates a per
petual desire to swallow, and causes a leel
log as if something was sticking in the up
per and back part of the throat. As the dis
ease becomes chronic, the matter concrete!
into hardened lumps, the matter secretei
becomes purlform, the breath is offensive
and tne voice assumes a nasal twang, while
on rising in the morning, great effort is re
quired to dear the head and throat. Then
is ol ten a feeling of pressure across tho lowei
prfrt of the forehead, causing headache, dlz
slness, and contusion of thought and loss o;
memory.
Tbe sense of smell becomes Impaired, tin
eyes are weak, and, as the inllammatlon extends
up the eustacelan tubes In to tbe internal
ear there is partial deafness with throb
bing. humming or ringing noises in the ear
In sleep the Catarrhal matter is unconsciously
swallowed, which. In time, deranges
the stomach and impairs digestion
caucing dyspepsia and a multiplicity of discordant
symptoms, which are olten mistaken
for other diseases. To tho foregoing,
font ?Hot bvflrv iimn.Hi of air drawn
Into the lungs is drawn over the diseased
surface, festering with Catarrhal matter, and
who can deny the assertion that to ncglca
Catarrh Is to invite Consumption:
Consumption Is the one prevailing disease,
at the present day, with which the yonng
and middle-aged die. And yet very seldom
do the lungs receive the primary shock 11
Is first "a cold In the head," which resolve*
Into Chronic Catarrh, from which the suieul
feels no alarm, until, step by step, it reaches
the lungs, when all attempts at cure are little
better than blind experiments.
With every Incentive to enjoyment and
usefulness, there are hundreds all around u?
dying In the morning of life, of Ccubumptlon,
who can 100k back six months, a year,
or longer, as the case may be, to a time when
it was "but catarrh." Neglected at a time
when (properly treated) a cure was possible,
silently and almost imperceptibly it ha*
transformed the bright, raddy features oj
youth Into the dull, wan listlessness of pre*
mature age, as It has drunk up the vitality
from the blood and fluids of the wasted
frame, and now, when hope is dead, and the
life forces one by one are ebbing away, the
mind turns mournfully backward to what
might have been," and tremblingly forward
to what soon must be.
CONSKQlENt'EN U* A?Ui.bii.
Those who Indorse the stupid assertion
that "Catarrh will get well of Itself," or it
curable by Hnufllng or Inhaling the now
trums In common use, will do well to remember
that the I oral disease depends always
upon afermenlalive condition of the LIchhL
Medical writers are wont to speak of Catarrh
as a simple local inilammatlon, and
both Its importance and rational treatment
are either wholly ignored, or receive but a
passing notice from the general practitioner;
and thus Catarrh as surely predisposes t?j
Consumption as does the day precede the
night, and is in fact the prelude to that
disease in eight cases out of ten.
The disease Is everywhere prevalent; people
resort to such means as always fail, then
give heed to the popular fallacy that it is incurable,
and settle into a sort of meutal
apathy, encouraged by tho belief that the
family physician knows all that is known
on the subject, and thus matters stand, whilti
the disease progresses until hope is dead, and
life becomes a mockery, when comes thr
stereotyped and hackneyed advice of -4n
v hilt to the country," -a cuttugc Ui i lmiait,
"a sea voyage," "a return of health in the
spring/' etc.; but, alas ! the country referred
to 1b mat which lies beyond the confines 01
the festering grave, and the spring In thai
season which blooms eternal when life's fit
ful fever is over.
Let, those who donbt this portrayal of Ca
tarrh question the poor consumptive, whose
sun of life is going down at noon, or watcli
Its progress upon those who neglect its time
ly and Judicious treatment. A little while
and we miss their coming; youth and healtl:

FROM THE SOUTH.
SomK Fnrlhcr Notes from Our I.nte
Correspondent.
1 ?
Wheeling, March 23d, 1869.
To the Kdltor of the Intelligencer:
One of the great drawbacks of both
whites and blacks at the Soutli, as of
very many peoplo elsewhere, is whisI
ky. It is the fashion of the country
down there to sell whisky in the village
groceries and some ot the cross
road stores, just as it used to be in this
country. Aud people who are considered
respectable and even leading characters
are not above frequenting these
groceries and taking their drams, and
taking them often enough, too, to
come forth qnite the worse for their
load.
I think it likely thnt the most villainous
liquor In the United States or
, elsewhere, is sold in these Southern
groceries. In the first place, much of it
comes originally from Cincinnati, stopping
at Jjouisvilie, perhaps, for remedication?which
is a suspicious olr
> cunistance of itself, and, in the next
, place, I presume from what I have
heard that the Southern standard in
regard to fluch spiritual matters ran
down nearly to zero during the rebellion,
and finally became very much demoralized,
indeed; so much so that at
- this time an interior article of even
Cincinnati whisky, duly remedicated
at LiOuiBville, and, perhaps, again tampered
with at Nashville, satisfies the
cravings of the thirsty Southron.
1 have heard thatduring the war those
who were accustomed to a free use of
[ the ardent would drink corn juice fresh
and liot from the still, with the fusil oii
all alive aud rank in it, rather than go
without their necessary stimulus. It
was thus perhaps that many of those
who survived both the whisky and the
1 war, acquired their present uncritical
, and somewhat degenerate capacity for
the article known as benzine.
The whisky groceries of the South
rejoice in the advent of "Court Week,"
for then conies their harvest and great
f reward. Court week is an institution
in the South that we cannot duly ap[
preciate in this country, especially the
<l.m ili/n-nnT nu ii'(i liiiniianafi tr\ uun
- it during our travels. The public
fcquare of the village that boasts the
; possession of the Temple of Justice is
alive at an early hour of tho day with
' horses, mules, oxen and wagons, and
with a great influx of the rural popu>
lation clad in homespun. The former,
| that is tho horses and mules, are hitchl
ed all uround everywhere, in front of
: the stores, groceries, shops and ollices,
wherever there are hitching accommo;
dations. The oxen stand in the square
[ anywhere, yoked to their load of wood
; or cotton, or whatever it may be. It is
t not unusual to see six steers yoked to
; a very small load, but then the steers
' are of a very small and scrawny pattern,
probably not more than one-third
I as heavy as those used in this country.
' You naturally wonder what brought i
all these people to town on tho first day
| of Court. 1)j thoy all have business
? with the lawyers. If they do they must
i certainly be the most litigious people
\ iu the world. I am impressed from all I
; heard and saw that tho lawyer's Para'
diee, so far as personal inlluence iscon!
cejued, :s at tho South. And I can thus
1 understand why it was the people in so
' many localities oll'ered so feeble a reI
sistance to the Secession movement,
The lawyers are the father-confessors
of thousands of them and were virtut
ully tho keepers of the consciences of
i all such, for universal intelligence does
prevail at the South,and the peoplo are
not as independent and self reliant in
their business matters as they are at
! tho North. A lawyer at the South re- ?
minds us of our readings of the Priests i
in Spain, a kind of intellectual machine i
for very many peoplo. During Court !
week they move about among tlie peoplejuiucb,
I suspect,as the liralimius are
accustomed to move in and out of their
temples among their votaries in the
domain ot Juggernaut.
The outside of tho Southern Court
houses that we happened to see was not
prepossessing, and the inside of the one
1 went into to behold a Court in sossion
' was still less inviting. It was scanty in
, all its accomodations for the public.and
, dirty enough not to have been cleaned
' since the war. Down stairs, on tho i
' opposite sides of n dark and cheerless
r passageway, were tho county (.'dices.
. The rooms looked more like cells than
.,ih,.du Ho ufitirs the (,'ourfc held its
sessions, and on either side of the pul'
pit where llio Judge ant, und the little
, pen whore the lawyers confronted the
. two benches belonging to the Jnry
> were little aiBles at the ends of which h
' few people were huddled with their
J backs tar the lire. The Judge, a super
rior looking man, sat in his pulpit, pen
in hand, making memoranda, as I took
it, in the docket. The Jury were sitting
listless and mute, for no lawyers were
about, and the spectators before the
wood lire made no other sign than now
and then to whisk their homespun
J coat tails and scratch their legs. I
thought these were the most solemn
proceedings I ever looked upon, and
really it was a relief to see the tip staff
put his head out of the window and
call John Doe and Richard Roe into
court. As it was near the middle of
the day the Roes and Does were supposed
to be refreshing themselves along
with their friends at the Groceries, for
you must know that in thiB shire town
' where I attended Court there was no
tavern. The travel is too Bcant and the
1 whisky business too promiscuous for a
tavern in that little place to thrive.
They say that it is something more
than ordinary to hear the Southern
lawyers when doing their level best in
a big case, as for instance a murder
9 trial. Then is the time that a Congressional
aspirant puts himself squarely
on his mettle and tickles the ears of the
llatening orowd with such swelling
periods of pathos and bathos as melt
iimm Hwav entirely. Amusing inci
dents are told as to some of the Judges
that get upon the bench in the Sonth in
these days, as illustrating their high
> qualifications for the positions they till.
Somewhere, in Alabama or elsewhere,
a learned Judge delivered a charge after
the trial of a case between two partners
, in one of these groceries that I have
been talking abont, in the course of
whicn he 1b reported to have said that
"if the jury believed from the evidence
'* that the plaintiff and defendant were
partners in the grocery, and that the
1 plaintiff bought out the defendant and
gave his note for the interest, and that
the defendant paid for the note by delivering
to the plaintiff a cow, which he
10 warranted *not breechy,' ana tne warranty
was broken by reason of the
breechinesB of tbe cow, and the plaintiff
drove the cow back and tendered her to
m the defendant, but tho defendant
reiU8ei1 lo receive her, and "the plaintiff
took her home again and put a
heavy yoko or poke upon her to prevent
ber jumping the fence, and the cow in
j attempting to jump the fence by reason
of tho yoke or poke broke ber neck and
died; and if the jury further believe
N that the defendant's iuterest In the grocery
was not worth anything: that the
S plaintiff's note was worthless, and the
cow good for nothing, either for milk
or beef, or for green hide, then the
3, jury must find out for themselves how
they will decide the case, for the court
if she undeastands herself?and she
thinks she does?don't know how such
a case should be decided." j
But don't Imagine that every small
place we were at was minus a tavern.
? We have a lively recollection of a
tavern that we stopped at in the State
of Georgia, for several hours. If we
had been travelling in Kentucky I
should have taken it for granted that
we were at the veritable- Confederate
er Cross Koads place, where Nasby keeps
nt his Post Office aud Bascomb keeps his
or grocery. Indeed, as it was, I was'al*
most persuaded that the man before us,,
standing behind the bar dispensing
fluids, was none other than the venerable
Haacomb. I wish you could have
seen the old fellow. They called him
"judge." They call nearly everybody
at the South either judge or Colonel.
There are not half as many titled people
in all Kurope as at the South. A man
must bo a common individual indeed,
who cannot boast of a handle of some
sort to his name. Our host was having
a good run of trade, and I think he
must have been having it for sometime,
for evidently he *i?d not had leisure of
late to shave or to change his shirt, or
even towashhimBelfand do full justice
to his hair. As we came in with our
carpet bags and sat them down near his
big wood Are, be turned his largo owly
?yes upon us, and for a few seconds
seemed to be quietly estimating our
probable cash value to his bar. There
was a big barrel ol whisky where we
deposited our traps, and there were several
kegs more in the rear of the counter,
and I don't know how many new
decanters there were on bis shelf.
The names on their gilt labels
exhausted the entire nomenclature of
the business, and ran from whisky to
Port and Madeira. Thinks I to myself aa
I warmed by the lire and scanned the
catalogs of their iabels.it would be a nice
old drink of Madeira that a man would
get in this shanty,snre. Perceiving that
we were not dry as yet the "judge"
withdrew his attention from us and
concentrated it upon several others who
were showing more signs of taking
something. And it was it sight to behold
bow some of those old veterans,
and some not bo old, inoluding several
specimens of onr African brethren,
could toss offafnll glass of raw and
unmixed whisky and never blink an
eye or gag the slightest tritle. The thirsty
sons or Japheth and Canaan drank
promiscuously from the same glasses
I.-. .1 ~ T /I I<1 nn? nnHna

that the venerable Bascomb pretended
to rinse the tumblers. I think it likely
that his notions of water were confined
exclusively to purposes of navigation.
Going out the door of the bar room
to see about the prospects for diuner I
noticed a thin speciemen of a short
man with a revolver sticking out of
one of his breeches pockets, and another
one out from his vest like a large
breastpin. He was very war-like indeed
in his appearance. As several
rather hard looking men weregronpad
in his vicinity I thought at first that
we were at length to be gratified with
a speciemen ol a fine old southern
shooting scrape, in which pistols, without
coffee, for several, were to figure.
But in this first Hush of expection I
was disappointed for nobody said a
word to this promeuading arsenal and
he himself looked very chilly and
doubled up like as he moved slowly
around on the edge ol the crowd.
As I came up to him 1 ventured to ask
what was the trouble. Looking at me
with a rather reserved and magisterial
Bort of an air, he remarked "we'll have
a trial d?d soon."
I saw that he had a darkey under arrest,
and 1 ventured to inquire
what the fellow had been arrested for.
Preserving bis solemn and awe inspire
ing manner he sententiously observed,
"the warrant says enticin away niggers."
Thinking that I had perhaps
sounded the depths of his profound nil
lure us far us was discreet oil 1111 ab?
rapt acquaintance,1 passed on to reconnoitre
the dining room of tho rickety
old ark iu which we wore stopping.
On returning to the bar room I noticed
Ibis solemn man in tho act of putting
himself outside of a glass of raw "Robinson
county" whisky, lie had left
the darkey in charge of an aid decamp
in order to come in and fortify
himself against tho cold, for the weather
was quite chilly. Presuming on our
former conversation, I observed to him
that he seemed to be seeking a little
comfort in the discharge of his duties,
"Yes/'said ho, "ri feller can't live without
it a mornin like this." Then swallowing
tho contents of his glass he proceeded
to .pull out of hia pocket, not
one of his revolvers, but a stump-tailed
black pipe, and in his deliberate and
solemn manner, began to knead
some tobacco in his hand to fill the
Bttill pipe. WIlUU tlllOU HI1U llgULeU "C
stuck it between his broken and blackened
teeth and begun to pull for the
smoke with great vigor. As ho passed
nt, I could not help thinking that if
tie were only to go home now and add
an ouiou or two to his brenlh, what a
nice sweet scented bod-follow he would
be.
The people in our country hero don't
know how to ohew tobacco, or Hinoke
either. They should go down South
and take a few lessons. I once heard a
fellow Kitting in the sent before me in
the cars, in speaking of some persou to
a companion who sat basldo him, remark
that it was "/ntniit to hear hiin
talk." 1 should say that it is just the
reverse of "fatnin" to see some of those
people chew and chew, and squirt aud
squirt, through hours of conversation.
When they are not chewing,
or taking their meals, or sleeping, they
are most likely taking a seige at a
pipe, and it is enough to dry up h
man's gartric juices, and destroy the
tone of his stomach, and make him
grow thin from sheer sympathy, to
witness this excessive use or the weed.
When night comes 1 wonder that there
is anything left inside some of those
people, and how they go on Sdigesting
their food for years is a mystery indeed.
Perhaps this over-indulgence
in tobacco is the reason why you do
not meet with so many clear and
reddy complexions In the South as in
this country, and why the hair in Ro
many instances appears llinpy, car
roty and dead like. When tuo great
reforms that aro agitating and evangelizing
some portions of the country
roach the South, things will be different,
hygienicallv speking. It is lair to
presume that the "coming man" will
not spend so much of his valuable
time, money and health, in
the use of any one narcotic
And speaking of that "coming man"
In the South,let me tell you that us I rode
along on my mule the other day
through thousands of acres and
millions of tons of iron ore, I could not
help thinking that the "coming inan"
in that country would not be a lawyer,
nor a doctor, nor a preacher, but I
more likely a man after the pattern
of our friend, the Major, who rode with
us for several days, and who has been
directing the attention of capitalists at
the North to the untold wealth that
was waiting to be developed under our
feet. Having Been all phases of iife,
been rich and poor, travelled extensively,
mixed and collided with all sorts of
men, and finally having added an experience
of four y oars of war to this collection,
he had naturally become a
philosopher and a cosmopolitan, liberalized
and desectionalized, and prepared
to appreciate men wherever he lound
them for whatever he found in them,
that is the schooling to make the right
sort of a man lose ail the prejudices of
birth, education and association, and
lit him with a stock of ideas for doing
business on a big scale. To such a man
the lesson of the war was plain. It
taught him that ths resources of tho
South were to be opened up fully and
treely to all who had the skill, the
labor and the money,to invest In them.
It taught, him that those vast deposits
of iron were there to build cheaper railroads
than any of us have ever yet seen,
so that within a generation there will
be scarce a town or village in all these
United States, so small or unimportant
but that it will have its railroad connection
with some main line.
I was amuBod at the reoital of a conversation
he had with a New England
I Congressman some months ago, during
a visit to the North. You need not be
I shaping a distinctive policy for us in
Alabama, with the Idea 01 any pi-nunnent
discrepancy between us and your
own people, said lie. We have all the
elements,and more, that have made New
England what she is, and we are going
to have yonr Lowells and your Tauntons,
yodt ootton mills and your iron
works, right among us. Wo have the
climate, the soil, the water power, and
the Inexhaustible raw materials' of
, manufacture to attract your labor and
your capital, and they will as certainly T
come to us from you as that they origi- J
nally came from Europe to you. These _
are quick times and Slates will grow ?
and develop with railroad speed. The
future will not resemble the past in
scarcely any particulars. So look out
about the programme you are marking
out for us, and make it big enough,
broad enough and liberal enough for n
not only the present but the luture of
us all, your children and mine. II
Was this not more statesmanlike th
talk than Southerners were formerly
wont to use, either at the North or at
home? It sounds, I fanoy, like the ut- Tt
terances of the "coming man" of the 31i
New South. There is a day not far
distant when well-paid labor and cheap .
livelihood will unite to develope that W1
country. At present it is not so. La- is
bor has been too long crushed and de- ]
graded. But what was once written in ..
England is being re-written in the
South. "Surely as much food as a man 'el
can buy, with as muoh wages as a man to
can get, for as muoh work as a man jn
can do, is not more than the natural
und inalienable birthright of every
man whom God has created with ,
strength to labor, and with hands to
work." C- hs
