MILWAUKEE LIGHT GUARDS.

The Milwaukee Light Guards passed
through this city on Monday evening last,
en- route for New York, via Detroit and Buff
falo, on pleasure excursion, numbering
forty-four muskets and four officers, under
command of Capt. J. G. SrARKwEArHER.
They consumed the hour waiting for the
departure of the Detroit night Express
train in drilling on the spacious dock in
front of the ID. d. M. passenger depot.
Their movements were at the word and
in unison. A better appearing and drill
ed company can't be found in the West.
Although dressed in travelling rig, every
thing was in order; muskets and bay
onets bright and glistening, to all APP
pearances able to stand their hand with
the best on the plains of Piedmont sho'ld
il be necessary to go "to the wars" A
band of twenty performers accompanied
the Guards, and for good music is able to
compete with any band we have ever
heard, not excepting any in New York,
of the same number. Among the many
pieces performed we recognized the falnil-
lar airs of Bell Brandon and Midnight
Hour, which were admirably executed,
and apparently absorbed by large au-
dience, not excepting the celebrated
weather prophet, RYAN.
Milwaukee will lose nothing by having
such companies, both instrumental and
military, formed within her limits, and
wherever they 60 will furnish additional
proof of the renowned enterprise and taste
of her intelligent citizens. A jolly time
to YOU all.

DISEASE OF THE STOMACH.


The stomach is the most liable to get out Of
order. Hence how important that no diseased
matter clog its operation, which would cause.
nausea and distress by our food. 1t also weak
ems the brain, destroys the memory, creates pains
and dimness, and various Affections in the head.
1t produces great difficulty in breathing and
swallowing. Sometimes fainting and fits will
ensue also bad breath, rcstlessness and great
loss of strength. If not Immediately attended
to, the blood will carry the disease through the
whole system, and death will end the work.
From 2 to of these Pills a day will keep the di-
gestive organs in n healthy condition, and I'M
clog or carry away all impure matter, and thor
oughly restore and cleanse the stomach at
the same time the Pills will so purify the blood,
as TO drive all manner Of disease from the sys-
tenn.
woRMs.-In n quantity Of corrupted matter,
there is always TO be found nest Of worms
They cannot, neither will they stay anywhere
else. Weak stomach and bowels are subject to
them, as they have not sufficient power TO digest
their food. Hence q largo heap of matter is
lodged, and worms must be the result. few
doses of these pills will disturb them in their
nest, and drive them out Of the system.
It should be remembered, that an occasional
dose when in health, especially after taking cold,
will prevent tho disease from forming in the body.

In this village, on the goth ult., after brief
illness, MAY, only daughter of RurH @. and
JOHN w. BARNS, aged NO years and seven
months.
BY the request Of dear friend Of the deccas-
cd, we insert the following beautiful hymn, sung
on the occasion Of the funeral:
Go to thy rest, fair child
Go TO thy dreamless bed,
While yet so gentle, indebted,
With blessings on thy head.
Fresh roses in thy hand,
Buds ON thy pillow laid,
Haste from this dark and fearful land.
Where flowers SO quickly fade.
Before thy heart had learned
In waywardness to stray;
Before thy feet had ever turned
The dark and downward way;
Ere sin had scared the breast,
Or sorrow woke the tear;
Rise TO thy throne Of changless rest,
In yon celestial sphere
Because thy smile was fair,
Thy lip and eye SO bright,
Because thy loving cradle care
Was such dear delights;
Shall love with weak embrace,
Thy upward wing detain?
No gentle angel, seek thy place
Amid the cherub train.

CoFFEE.-Who does not love good
cup of coffee? The individual who connot
sit down end sip with real gusto cup of
real genuine Java or Mocha, and not feel
a sensation of peculiar satisfaction and
delight in the inner man, is no Dutchman
Mt all. Let man return to his comfort
able fresido after the joys, knocks and

toll, and meet his wife at the threshold
Of his cottage with sweet smile of well
come on her ruby lips, and cup of fra
grant coffee, all smoking, creamed and

and a pair of slippers elegantly wrought
by her own industry, for his comfort, in
the other, and if his heart does not leap
for Joy, and oblivion cover up all his per-
plexities, cares and anxieties, for the time
being, his is indeed hard fate, and life

row of true happiness. Of this, of course
old bachelors know nothing, except theo.
retically, or immaginatively. Poor souls
how we pity them.
Appropos to the above, il may be in.
tercsting to coffee drinkers to know how
much of this favorite beverage is con
sumed in the world during the year.
During the year 1858, the consumption
of coffee reached the enormous amount
of 3lI,5oo tons, of which the United
States consumed 10000 tons. Surely
VIC are an approaching people.

TEMPERANCE LECTURE.

We had temperance meeting at Grand
Haven, on Monday evening last-a good
old-fashioned temperance meeting-where
every one felt interested and at home.
Rev. JAS. BALLARD, introduced the sub
ject in a short, pithy, right-to the point adj
dress. He liked the present probibitory
law very well, as far as il goes but he wo'd
give aid and countenance TO law that
would give citizens the right to enter the
shop Of the dram seller, and, with axe or
mallet, knock in the head of the whiskey,
gin or beer barrels, as the surer way after
milder means had proved Intellectual, and
put stop summarily to the traffic.
Rev. j. ANDERSON, in commenting up
on the idea, thought such course might
be attended with serious consequences, if
every whiskey and beer barrel should be
thus treated, inasmuch as certain walking
ones would be in constant danger of de-.
capitation.
Mr.. GEO. PARKS favored a prohibitory
law that would prevent the manufacture
and importation of intoxicating liquors as
the only sure preventative TO intemper-
ance, thus striking at the root, of this
great moral Upas tree rather than make
the futile attempt TO destroy it by looping
off few Of the topmost branches. Such
law he was confident would meet the
almost unanimous approval Of the peo-
pie of the State, even those engaged in
the traffic, and the consumer would give
it hearty support.
Rev. S. S. N. GREELY, of Grand Rapids,
rehearsed some very interesting reminis-
ences of temperance movements in the
Green Mountain and other Eastern States.
The time for dismissal approaching it
was thought best to appoint committee
to ascertain if anything could be done to
suppress intemperanco in our midst, and
if so, what? The committee consists Of
Messrs. Geo. Parks, S. Monroe, VIM.
Comstock, T. w. Ferry, II. Griffin, A.
Stedgman, J. w. Barns and E. Van Nor
man.
Upon the inquiry of Rev. ]. AMBER
SON, if any others should be added to the
committee, Judge TAYLOR loosely sug-
gested that the ladies should not be for
gotten in the selection of the committee,
as it had been ascertained by actual dem
onstration that the power and influence
of one woman was equal to that of three
and a-half men.
Mr.. GREEDY thought after some plan
had been matured by the stronger sex,
women would do better, and have more
influence in carrying out these plans ef-
fectually than the opposite sex.
The next temperance meeting is To
take place at the Court House, in two
weeks from Monday evening last, al
which the committee above named is to
report. Rev. s. s. N. GREEDY consented
at the earnest solicitation of the meeting
10 be present and address tho people.

To the Editors of the Spectator.

GENTLEMEN Having resided for more than
thirty years in this community, you may suppose
that take some interest in whatever relates to
its welfare. | know that you, gentlemen, will
take pleasure in giving place in your paper to
anything which indicates the progress and pros
perity of any portion of highly favored county
What shall say, will be principally in relation
to our citizens engaged in trade.
We have seven stores in our village. Our
Merchants are of established reputation
having been in business for more than thirty
years, and several younger men who have and
are steadily working their way into consider
able business. Messrs. King & Fishburn are
veterans. Mr.. Withrow, their junior, by his Ca
pacity and energy. has been working his way
into the the confidence of our people for more
than twenty years, and has as the reward of his
industry expanded his operations largely. Mr..
Dsrnall, next in order of time, is safe and jul
dicious merchant. Still later Mr.. Antrim COM
menced business, and is very energetic and 60
g. head man, and is doing large business. Lastly,
Mr.. O. King, is very promising young man.
have not seen in the whole period so much ev-
idence of pl prosperity, and | hazard nothing in
saving that our Merchants have the best stock
of goods for style, quality ard amount, / have
known brought to this market. There seems to
be general waking up. Our old merchants
have new life infused in them, and l doubt if
greater inducements are offered anywhere in
the county than can be by our Merchants. l
will further state that our Merchants will COM
pare most favorably with any in the State.
take great pleasure in making these statements
having no sort of connexion in business with
any of them-but as simple act of justice to
gentlemen of great worth. COMMERCE..

THE Fincastle Democrat /.

The ''Fincastle Democrat" picks up para
graph from the "Lynohburg Republican" in re-
iesrd to the behavior of young gentlemen who
nfest the doorways of churches, which he makes
the occasion for some comments upon the article
of "Oonseryator" published in this paper in
August last. Had the Editor of the "Fincastle
Democrat" confined himself to the article in
question we should not have felt called upon to
write this paragraph. But when he speaks OF
"Conseryators" article setting forth the evils
of camp meetings" as having been recently
endorsed by the editors of this paper, and three
times in addition alludes to Us as its 'endosers,"
we cannot permit such gross Misrepresentation
to pass without correction. The statement that
we have recently or at any time, or in any par
ticular, endorsed the article of "Conservator,"
is certainly false, and whilst we would not
charge DR.. Hopkins, who is q clergyman OF the
Methodist Church, with designed and deliberate
Justification of our position, We are entirely at
loss to conceive upon what grounds he felt justi-
fed in making such assertion. Every reader
of this paper knows that so far from having
endorsed the article of "Conservator" we have
studiously avoided all allusion to the propriety
or improperly OF camp-meetings, in the face of
an obvious effort to drag US into discussion of
their merits Conscious that we have pursued
this course, il is not pleasant to be so glaringly
misrepresented in community where our paper
does not circulate, and we hope the Fincastle
Democrat will publish this contradiction in its
Staunton spectator. [volume] (Staunton, Va.) 1849-1896, 1859-10-04
Abundance Of Game.

The country around town is alive with par
tridges, squirrels, hares &C., and the sportsmen
are having glorious time. The cartridges are
whistling all through the town, and even the
rabbits and squirrels have made their way into
the corporate limits. One day last week three
cartridges committed suicide by flying rashly a.
gainst the pillars of the male Academy. Near.
er to the mountains, farmers are frequently
visited by the bears, who leave their dens fol-
the purpose of trespassiug upon corn-felds.-
This disposition of the "wild varmints" to seek
the abodes ofcivlization is probably occasioned
by scarcity of mast in the forests.
