HosTETTER's BITTERs.-The public
are aware that for some years past
Hostetter's Bitters have by their in
trinsic merit, as the best tonic of the
day, won name and celebrity beyond
any other compound of the like kind
The immense and ready sale which
Hostetter's Bitters met with, induced a
number of persons to engage in coun-
terfeiting them by buying up the bot.
ties and filling them with spurious
and noxious compound, and then ma.
king sales of the article to coffee-house
keepers and others at a reduced price,
under the representation that they
were the genuine article. Purchasers
should always examine the bottle, and
see that it is covered with a metallic
cap with name stamped on, and not
with tin foil or wax, as in the case with
the counterfeit article. The genuine
article is sold by all respectable drug
gists and dealers everywhere.

From census Just taken, we learn that there
are at present 9S2 colored inhabitants in this

they own 7,54l acres of land, which will average
about 30 acres to the family The land is valued
at from SIS to $40 per acre. The whole of this

we take into consideration the fact that this great
