DEAR SIR, i have been subject Of Dyspepsia in
its worst FORM for the last five years. Such was my
condition for twelve months that the physicians and
ali who saw me said must die. While In this con-
dition was carried to the Watering places in Vir
ginia. Tennessee, and North Carolina but was not
benefited by any water to which was taken. While
on my way home, stopped week at Rutherfordton
small village in North Carolina to try the effect OF
some Chalybeate water in that place. About the last
of the week went into drug store to get some med
icne for my child and myself There were several
of the village physicians in the store and one OF them
seemed TO take some interest in my case and after
asking me some questions, said he had been dys-
peptc. and had been greatly benefited by the use Of
Z aHoohands German Btters," prepared by yeu, and
he insisted that would try the Bitters, He also
called the next day at my room, and insisted so much
that would try them that asked him to get me
one bottle He did it, and commenced taking II as
directed and was more benefited by it than all the
water and medicine had ever taken. 9g! fss ,Ht
After reaching home, one Of my neighbors came 70
me for prescription and medicine, Che dyspephc,)
and gave him nearly oil the Bitters had left which
effected much good in his case. He has often called
on me for more of the same kind Of medicine, saying
he was more benefited by it than any other he had
taken. but have not been able to get any more for
him or nysef since Win you, therefore, please ship
me dozen OF more soon as possible.
Respectfully, yours .. EF W. SMITH.

The Basis of tho Am erican Party.

The Hon. Daniel Ullman, of New
York, in an address before the people
of that State, uttered the following ell
oquent thoughts: lgnn.. ..a... kn.
give thanks to the living God
that he has put it into the hearts of the
American people to raise up an organ
ization in this land, whose great, whose
all pervading object is to inauguratc
an American policy-a national Amer
lean sentiment. 1t is in strict accord
ance with the maxims and principles of
Washington and the sages of the Rev
olution, and every right-mindcd man
who was born upon the soil--whatevcr
he may say--feels in tho bottom of his
heart, that we are right, and being
right, we shall succeed. .my!g di /
I The great heart of this people is
moved. The cdict has gone forth that
hereafter there shall be such a thing
as an American nation. Nationality
shall no longer be with us mere blind
instinct, but an enlightened sentiment
gushing up from the depths of the soul,
purified by a sense of the beautiful, the
true, and the great. A national scnti-
ment is the actual of the life of a,peo-
pie idcalizcd. Save that homage which
we owe to tho Supreme Creator of the
Universe, there is no higher, nobler,
purer sentiment, among men. SEN
Whence comes this sentiment? It
comes from all that is great and noble
and glorious in the history of nation.
1t comes from the song of her poets,
the cloquence Of her orators, the wis
dom of her sages, the deeds of her war
rors. 1t comes from her progress in
art, science and literature. 1t comes
from her pleasant places, her happy
homes, her cheerful fircsidc, her hal
lowed affairs. 1t comes from the pratt
tie of her babes, the games Of her youth,
her merry meetings, her solemn assem-
blles. 1t comes from her crowded cit
les, her lonely church yards. Itcomes
from her tecming earth, her blue skies,
her lovely valleys, her beautiful hill
sides, her towering mountains, her bab-
bling brooks, her majestic rivers. 1t
comes from her Bunker Hill, her Sar-
atoga, her Brandywinc. 1t comes
from her Washington, her Greene, her
Marion. 1t comes from her Hamilton,
her Henry, her Jefferson. 1t comes
from her Franklin, her Fulton, her
Whitney. 1t comes from her Jackson,
her Scott, her Taylor. 1T comes from
her Clay, her Webster, her Calhoun.
1t comes from all that constitutes her
being, her life. 1t is her life, her in
ner life, her spiritual existence. With
out this ennobling sentiment, though
nation may number her people by mil
lions, yet she is as dead as the clods of
the earth. With it she may be con
9uered. She never can bo subdued,
Her cities may be burncd--hcr fclds'
devastated--her sons crushed TO the
earth, but if in their hearts exist this
elastic, enthusiastic, ,kindling sentiment,
God, in his own appointed time, will
give them strength to rise, redeem and
re-conquer their native land
