Let Us he MercifuI 10 Ourselves
The physical structure Of the strongest human
being is vulnerable everywhere. Our bodies are
endowed By nature with q certain negative power,
which protects them to some extent from unwhole-
some influences; but this protection is imperfect,
and cannot be safely relied on in unhealthy re-
gions, OF under circumstances of more than ordi-
nary danger, Therefore, it is wisdom, it is pru-
dence, it is common sense, TO provide against such
contingencies, by taking an antidote in advance
in other words by certifying the system with a
course Of H-oSTETTER's STOMACH BITTERs,
the most complete protective against all the cpl
demie and endemic malAdies that has ever been
administered in any country. As a remedy for
Dyspepsia, there is no medicine that viii compare
with it. Whoever suffers the pangs Of Indiges-
tion, anywhere on the face Of the earth where
HosTETTER's BTrTERs can be procured, does so
voluntarily; for as surely as Truth exists, this
invaluable Tonic and Alternative would restore
his disordsred stomach to a healthy condition. To
the Bilious It Is also especially recommended, and
in cases Of confirmed Constipation It affords
speedy and permanent relief. In Canada, the
West Indies, and Australia, the Bitters rank
above all other medicines of the class, and the 6e-
mand for them in all foreign countries increases
every season.
$1,000 RcWard.-The above reward will be
given to any person who can furnish 8 p~rsscrip-
ton for COaghs, Colds, WhOopInG Cough, Asthma
and Consumption, which is equal to DR.. strick-
Isnk's Mellihuous Cough Balsam. This bAlsAm
will cure the above complaints, also splitting Of
blood and night svests. One bottle is sufficient
for any one to try. The worst cases Of chronic
cough, asthma, vhcoping cough and primary cases
ofeensumption are cured by DR.. stricklands Mel
lihuous Cough Bslsam. It can be be had at any

ANOTHHR DIsTILLERY CAsE.-Betore the
United States Commissioner yesterday John W.
Cullen had hearing on the charge ol disiilling
spirits without a license.
Deputy Collector Kneass testified that he
visited the distillery OF defendant, No l403 Pas.
syunk road, on the evening OF the Sth of No
vember, and found the still in operation, and
large quantity OF mash IN the place; that he
went Off to get watchmap, and upon returning
in two hours afterwards the distlllery was de-
serted; Mr.. Cullen was there when he first went
there. Defendant had made application for q
license, aud been told that nc could not 90 on
until he had oblaned 1t.
Dominique Vou,ier testified 70 accompanying
Mr.. KneaSs TO the place, and TO seeing the still
though il was not in operation when he was
there. Defendant was held IN $1,000 bail for trial
THE PAY OF THE PoLICE.-Ye esterday
afternoon petition was presented to Civ
Councils, asking for an increase of pay OF 1.-THE
Police Department of Philadelphia. The peti.
ton, which was referred to the Police Com
mittee, is in substance as follows:-
"The Lieutenants, Sergeants, and Privates of
the Police Department of the city of Philadel-
phia ask Of your bodies the passage of an ordi-
nance TO increase their salaries to the following
amounts, iZ,:-Lieutenants, Sl200; Sergeants,
$ll00; and Privates Sl000.n
The petition sets forth three reasons for the
increase:-The high price OF living, the ex-
pensve uniforms, ard the present inadequate
pay, which for several years past has been
lessened by the necessity of selling the warrants
at q large discount.

THE TOBACCO FRAUD.-In the case OF
Martin Solomon and L. w. Holladay, tobacco
dealers, who were charged with defrauding the
Revenue Department by the use of boxes for the
transportation OF snuff second time, that had
been but once inspected, there was final hear
ing yesterday: No additional testimony was
submitted. Mr.. Valentine, the Assistant Dis
trict Attorney, addressed the Commissioner a,
follows:-Snce the last meeting, the amount of
tax on the snuff which was being packed for
shipment has been paid, amounting to S932.l5,
and the property seized at Mr.. Holaday's, anu
also that at Messrs. Crossman d Soomons,
being libeled. 1t seems to me tnat the pur-
poses of the law have been ans wered by the paw
ment of the tax and the coniscation of the pro
perty seized which l understand will not be
resisted by the counsel for the defendants. He
would, however, leave it TO the judgment of the
Commissioner to say what should be DONE
Mr.. Sergeant, the Commissioner, said that
there was no evidence of bad faith. He did not
believe that II there had been design to de-
fraud, the boxes would have been sent to Cam.
den to be altered. In the absence of any evi-
dence OF bad faith, coupled with the fact that
the District Attorney did not press the case he
should discharge the accused.
