There is a dsease to which the doctors give
many names, but which few Of them understand.
It is simply " 'akness-a breaking down of the
vital forces. whatever its causes, land they are
inumerable) its symptoms are in the main the
same. Among the most prominent are eEtrtme
l~Assitude, loss Of appetite, loss Of flesh, and great
mental depression. Iudigestion and a Stomach
Cough are alec ire luentIy concOmltsnts If this tis-
tressing state of body and of mind. The common
remark in relation to persons in such q condition
is, that they are o nsumptiVe. Now. what these
salOrEunAses resffy want Is Tigor-VitdE Strength /;

can recuperats their systems and regain perfect
health by resorting to ~HosTETTER's OELEBRA.

Railroad I-nteIIIrence.
EARSIEes.-The earnings of the Toledo
and Wabash Railway for seven months of
the present year, amount to $1,1sS,O7O


on CRY RAILRoAD.-Two locomotives
have been purchased for the Pithole City
and Oil City Railroad. The construction of
the road from the city to oleOpolis, at the
mouth of the creek, will occupy, 1t Is
thought, about sixty days.
The eHoRr-Cur PAK-HAHDLE RoAD.-Phe
s~teubenvills Berald says that the Pitts
burgh and Steubenville "Short CUT Hail-
road is completed from the Virginia side of
the Ohio river, opposite steubenVilie' to
| Pittsburgh. Allthst now remsins to open
up railroad communication between Steu-
benviIle to Pittsburgh, ola the Panhandle,
is the completion of the bridge over the
river at S~teubenville, which it was thought,
would be finished by September 10th. By
this route the distance from Steuhenville 10
Pittsburgh would be reduced about n
half,-to q fraction over forty miles.
LAKE SHORE AND CORY R~AILRoAD-The
Dunkirk Union says that there is, among
parties most likely 10 be correctly informed,
q very decided conviction that the eontem-
plated railroad from some point near Dun
kirk TO the PenDsylvsnia oil region, will
be speedily constructed. A few nays since
Messrs. Mayor Fargo, of Buffalo; Mr.. But
terrified, of Utica; DR.. streeter, of Cleve-
land, and Mr.. Struthers, of Warren, Pa,
passed over portions of the proposed route
with a view to the location of the road.
L
on CRY AND PITHoLE RAILRoAD.-The
Oil City Register says that the railroad will
be constructed from that place to Pithols in
sixty days. The distance to the United
States we'll is six miles, two of which are
ready for the rails TO be laid. It now costs
nva % ~ ~ 90 20 transports Q barrel of Oil
from Pithole to the river, and the railroad
will do it for fifty cents per barrel. De-
Quoting the government tax of one dollar,
and the expense of working the we'll and
tanking the oil, together with the interests
of the money expended throughout, and the
net profit on a bsrTsI OF PIthole oil is but
little over one dollar per day.

indeed, a finished actor. He was last year
leading man in McVicker's theatre, Chica-
go, and played successfully to crowded
houses during the Sanitary Fair. He has
also had a successful career on the New
York stage. He will be leading man here
during the season, and theatre goers may
congratulate themselves on the choice made
by the management.
Mr.. Edwin Irving is q low comedian Of
considerable note. We trust he will make
good the vacancy occasioned by the loss Of
Mr.. James Lewis.
Miss J.. E. Irving is a low comedienne
of excellent reputation. Miss Jane Parker
takes the place of Mrs. Bradshaw, who, we
regret, is nolonger with the company.
The company, taken all in all,
is fully equal, if not superior to
any that has svsr played in this city.
During the first week the management will
play stock only. Couldock and daughter
will play the second and third weeks, and
be followed by q number Of stars, several Of
whom are perfect strangers to our public.
We may mention, among these, Miss Kate
Reynolds, Miss Blanche DeBar, and others,
who will be announced hereafter.
The company have been playing "ROse-
dale" with great success in Columbus. 1t
will be produced here during she season,
and the great sensational play, "Arrah Ma
POgue," &c &c.
We congratulate our theatre-going pub
lie on the speedy opening of the dramatic
season in this city. They have been long
signing for the return of Manager Ellsler's
excellent company. They feel lost and dis
consulate on the close of the Academy of
Music The old members of the
one and all, will receive, ON their return, q
warm greeting, while the new ones will be
the recipients of a welcome no less cordisl
and hearty.

The Spirit Of the North.

From the circular of the American Union
Commission, we copy the following extract,
which we think will apply with considerable
force to our own State. We commend it as
breathing spirit at once catholic and liberal,
and as the pioneer of future attempts for our
welfare.
It would be we'll if our own citizens would
enter so fully and enthusiastically into tho
work of recognizing as this body of North
ern men, and would display SO kind spirit,
rather than attempting to retard all improve
ments and progress by continued series of
chickering's which can only result in injury to
all:
The work of war is ended. But not the
work of the nation. The era of destruction
must be followed by one of construction equal
~ sublime. Not only are the governments
destroyed. Farms are desolated Industry
is paralized. The school funds are gone The
school-houses are deserted and in ruins. The
churches are demoralized. The entire social
fabric, must be re-woven. Gov. Holden thus
describes the condition of North Carolna:-
We do not think that more than one-sixth of
the crops OF Indian corn and wheat will be
pr soc this year o There are re- no o1o o
body Of the people are industrious and dispos-
ed to work, but they need the means in the
way Of food, animals, and implements to culti-
vate the earth. :. -. The educational funds
of the State are all jeopardized, if not utterly
lost The people of the State can offer no IA
ciities for the education of children during this
year. This official description of North Car
olina affords true picture of the conditioApf
oil the Southern States. In these States thus
desolated must be established a true, 3 Chris
tian civilization. Desolated homes must be
rebuilt, industry revived, free labor organized,
schools and school systems established. Old
things have passed away. All things haveyet
to be made new"

home. It secures the just rights OF the
Federal Government. It secures the
liberty of the citizen. If the President
will fairly administer it; if he will make
an honest effort to apply its provisions;
if he will remember that the power of
the Federal Government are all dele
gated, and that the rest are all reserv-
ed; that trial by jury, free speech, free
press are all inviolate; that military
commissions, for the trial of civilians,
are absolutely prohibited, /, for one, be-
believe it to be my highest duty togive
him a warm support.
II wish the President had gone fur
ther. He would have done better if he
had accepted Sherman's truce. He
would have done better if, when he re-
ceived the submissive armed forces, he
had recognized the legitimate powers of
organized State governments. But he
has done well in this, that he recognizes
the powers of the States over the ques-
ton of suffrage; that he appoints as pro-
visional Governor; the citizens of the
States, and not superserviceable patriots
from Ohio or Massachusetts-that he de-
sires the States to resume their relations
to the Federal Government as soon as
possible, and to be represented in both
Houses of Congress on these points
I desire to give him a cordial support.
