CoLoRED REGIMENTS TO HAVE FULL

New York Tribune, wiring from Gener
al Gillmors's camp. relates the following
respecting the 54th and 55th (colored
Massachusetts regiments. which, it will
be remembered, were largely recruited
from the West:
The colored regiments from Massa
chusens have refused to receive the par
,ial pay proffered by the United States

deduction Of S3 per month for cloth

by Gov. Andrew, Of Massachusetts,, to
visit them and induce them 70 arcep,
from the State Of Massachusetts, S3 per
month, TO equslize their pay with tina,
of white troops. refuse to give up their
p,int by accepting the money. They
claim that they were enlisted as soldiers,
anl that the pay of soldiers is Sl3 per
month that they are not "laborers in
the military employment Of the United
States !" and that to accept $40 per
month would be TO acknowledge them
selves that status, and to place their of.
fcers in the anomalous positions Of be.

DREAMING IN CHURcH.-At Ballston
Spa, on Sunday afternoon, fatigued with
his loog journey. waggoner, with his
son John. drove his team into barn,
and determined to pass the Sabbath in
enjoying a season of worship with the
good people of the village. When the
time OF worship arrived, John was sent
t., watch the team, while the waggoner
went in with the crowd. The preacher
hardly announced his subject before the
old man fell sound asleep. He sat
against the partition. in the centre Of the
body slip just over against him, sepa-
rated by very low partition, sat a
feshy lady, who seemed all absorbed in
the sermon. She struggled hard with
her feelings, but, unable to control them
any longer, she burst out with loud
scream. and shouted at the top Of her
voice, arousng the old man. who. but
half awake threw his arm around
her waist, and cried, very sooihingly.
Whoa, Nancy Who, Nancy! Here

py speclal causes gs
Nothing that is not Wholesome, genial and
restorative inits nature, enters into the conpo
sition of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. This
popular preparation contains no mineral of any
kind, no deadly botanical element; no fiery ex-
citant but it is combination of the extracts
of rare balsamic herbs and plants with the pur-
est and mldest of all diffusive stimuants.
1t is well to be forearmed against disease,
and, so far as the human system can be pro-
tected by human means against maadies en-
gendered by an unwholesome atmosphere, i'm
pure water and other external causes, Hostel
ter's Bitters may be relied on rs a safeguard
/ In districts infested with Fever and Ague,
it has been found infallible as preventive and
irresistible as remedy and thousands who re-
sort to 1T under apprehension of an attack, es
cape the scourge and thousands who neglect
to avail themselves of its protective qualities
in advance, are cured by q very brief course of
this morveous medicine. Fever and Ague pa
tients, after being piled with quinine for
months in vain, until fairly saturated with that
dangerous alkaloid are not unfreq quenty restor-
ed to health within a few days by the use of
HoStetter's Bitters.
The weak stomach is rapidly invigorated
and the appetite restored by this agreeable
Tonic, and hence it works wonders in cases of
Dyspepsia and in less confirmed forms Of Indi
gcstioa. Acting as gentle and painless ap-
perient, Well ms upon the liver, it also invar-
lably relieves the Constipation superinduced
by irregular action of the digestive and secre-
tive organs.
Persons OF feeble habit, liable to Nervous At
t9cks, Lowness Of Spirits and Fits of Languor,
find PROMPT and permanent relief from these
Btters. The testimony o.. this point is most
cone usive. and from both sexes.
The agony of Bilious Collie isimmediate1y as
suaged by u single dose of the stimulant, and
by occasionally resorting to it, the return of the
| complaint may be prevented.
AS a General Tonic, Hostetter's Bitters pro-
| duce effects which must be experienced or wit
messed before they con be fully appreciated. In
| cases of Constitutional Weakness, Premature
Decay and Debility and Decreptitude arising
! from Old Age, it exercises the electric inftl-
ence In the convalescent stages of all disea-
| SIS it operates as delightful invigorant. When
the powers of nature are relaxed, it operates to
| re-enforce and re-estabish them.
Last, but not least, it is The only Safe Slim
ulant, being manufactured from sound and in
ocuous materials, and entirely free from the ac-
i'd elements present more or less in all the or
dinary toncs and s'omachcs of the day.
No family medicine has been go universally,
and, it may be truly added, deserredly popular
with the intelligent portion Of community, as
Hostetter's Bitters.

period the above named medicine has been be-
