are more sufferers from debility among Americans
than can be found among any other civilized ma
ton. The reason is obvious. We take too little
exercise, and forget the wants of the body in the
absorbing pursuits Of business. In ell such cases,
ordinary medicine can do little good. What is re-
quired, is just such tonic and inyigorat9r as DIR.
Hostetter has given to the world, in his CELE-
DRAFTED BITTERS. The weak and nervous deni-
zen of the counting house, the exhausted toiler
upon the shopboard, and the Frustrated student OF
the midnight lamp, have found wonderful regen-
orator in the BIrrERs, and prefer it TO the more
pretentous, but less eficaeiOus, medicines But 1t
should not be forgotten that the agent which Is so
magical in its influence upon frame which is merely
debilitated, is equally powerful in assisting nature
to pei the most terrible forms of disease. VINO
will not give it trial.

OR BILIOUS HEADACHE, AND BILIOUS FEvERs,
INDEED yer THE WHOLE CLASS DISEASES
ORIGINATING IN hillary DERANGEMENT, CAUSED
BY THE MALARIA OF MIAsMATIC COUNTRIES.
No one remedy is louder called for by the neces-
stiles of the American people than sure aud safe
cure Tor Fever and Ague. such remedy we are
now enabled to Offer with perfect certainty that
it will eradicate the disease, and with assurance,
founded ON proof, that no harm can arise from its
Use i'll anv quantity. lf
That which protects from prevents this disor-
der must be OF immense service in the commune
ties where it prevails. Prevention is better than
cure, for the patient escapes the risk which he must
in violent attacks of this baHeful distemper.-
This Sc Cure +" expels the Rasmatic poison of Fever
and Ague from the system, and prevents the devel-
opment of the disease, if taken the first ap
proach of its premOnitory symptoms. 1t il not
only the best remedy ever yet discovered for this
class of complaints, but also the cheapest The
large quantity supply for dollar brings il with
in the reach of everybody and i'll bilious districts
where Fever and Ague prevails, everybody should
have it and it freely, both for and protec
ton. 1t is hoped that this price will place it within
the reach of all-the poor as well as the rich. A
great superiority of this remedy over any other
discovered for the speedy and certain of Inter-
mttents is, that it contains Quinine mineral,
consequently it produces Qunism other in
furious effects whatever upon the constitution
Those cured by it are left healthy if they had
never had the disease.
Fever and ague is not alone the consequence of
the miasmatic poison great variety of disor-
dsrs arise from its irritation, among which are
Neuralgia, rheumatism, Gout, Headache, Blind
mes, Toothache, Earache, Uatarrh, Asthma, Palpi-
tation Painful Affection Of the Spleen, Mysteries,
Pain In the Bowels, ChOc, Paraly ss, and Derange-
nlent OF tho stomach, all of which, when Originat
ing in this cause put the intermittent type, or
become periodical The " Cure " expels the poison
from the blood, and consequently cures them all
alike. 1t is Invaluable protection to immi-
grants and persons travelling temporarily resid-
ing in the malhriou5 districts. If taken occasion
ally or daily while exposed to the infection, that
will be excreted from the system, and cannot accu
mrlate in sufficient quantity TO rpen into disease.
Hence ii is more valuable for protection than
cure, and few will suffer from Intermittents, if
they avail themselves of the protection this rem
edy affords.

an almost Indispensable part of the stock of every
general Dry Goods store from the crowded city to
the cross-road stand. Like all changes in trade,
however, this has not been produced except for
the best of reasons. Among these ara the great
saving OF material by cutting large quantity OF
garments together-the superior work and speed OF
sewing machines in manufacturing--the great saw
ing OF time in waiting for yOnr "turn at the Tai

sively to it alone with such lines of Notions aud

The Bride upon the Lake Of Constance
A BALLAD YRoN TIE GERM


The rider rides adown the vale,
On the snowfeld glimmer the sunbeams pale.
He journeys weorily over the snow,
To-day he must reach the lake below;
For on its waves the boat doth ride;
Will bear him safe to the other side.
Over thorn and stone, tolsomc way,
Yet his swiit course he will not stay:
From the mountain down into even land,
There sees he the snow lie smooth as the sand;
Far behind him leaves he village and town;
The way grows level. aud the path slopes down.
In all the outspread plain he. sees
No hill, no house, no rocks, no trees;
A mile and two he on doth HE,
lie hears in air the snow-goose's cry;
Now lutters the water-hen around.
Comes to his ear no other sound;
No traveller now meets his eye,
To show him where the path doth lie.
On, on, II he rides DER vclvet-like snow;
.'whcrc rushes the water, where shines its aow''
Now comes the evening, too early il seems;
From distant lights n lustre beams
Again in the way como thorn and stone,
Yet still he spars his good horse on;
Tree after tree from the mists uprlse,
And now a village grects his eyes:
The dogs come out. and cheerful light
And warm hearth-frcs guest invite.
"welcome at window, little maid.
To the lake. how far may il bel" he said.
The maid looked up with startled eye
s.The lake and the boat behind thee lie,
And were il not covered by ice from sight
should say thou had st crossed in il tonight.
The rider shud lcred, he spoke again,
'.Hither rode over yonder plain"
Then raised The maid on high her hand,
lord, Godi then r. dest thou not on land;
In the abyss, in the bottomless deep below,
Has raped at its door thy mad hoofs' blow:
Crashed not the rind Of ice beneath!
Heard'st not the angry waters secth'
Bccames. not prey for the silent brood
Ofthe hungry pike in the chilly aoodT'
And as within they heard the tale
The childrcn's ruddy lips grew pale.
Grandsire and mother with one voice
Cried "Happy man, Oh! now rejoice;
Come to our FIRE, our table spread,
Sit down with US, and break our bread.
The rider sat silent on his steed,
To only the first words gave he heed:
His hair stood up. his heart beat fast,
At the thought of his fearful peril past;
His eye saw only the deep abyss,
In his ear Il thundercd like crashing ice.
Then sighed he. then down from his horse h
sank; :,
And grave was for him by Constsnce's bank

In every instance, the balance to tho credit
of the State was swept clean, and the only
reason why Mr.. Brown did not get moro was
because there was no more to get. In ono
case, at least, the check was sent to the bank
without being filled, with the request that
the cashier would insert whatever amount
stood to the credit Of the State, and pay II TO
the bearer. Under these circumstances, tho
Committee must express the opinion that Dir.
Brown did not obtain this amount, S2.S32 80
in rightful mode. He knew that Mr.. Peck
was defaulter; ho knew that the State was
already deirauded Of very large amount by
Mr.. Peck negotiating these time checks on
one of which, his claim was based, and be
should have known that he had no claim
whatever upon the State for repayment. Mr.
Brown says In defense. that when Peck got
the $4,000 of him in November, In Traders

even promised that Il should be paid from tho
Treasury at the rate Of only $500 week; but
the Committee have to repeat that there
no good evidence Of q single dollar OF IL ever

not conceive that any Of Mr.. Peck's personal
promises could give Mr.. Brown any claim
whatever on the State for payment Of obliga-
tions thus incurred by him. The Committee
