IRRESPONSIBLE COUNTERFEITRRS.- One Of
the most serious annoyances which the
proprietors of an article in unusual de-
imitation of it by parties equally unscru-
lous and irresponsible. If an individual or
firm with means engages in this ncfari-
Gus business, the damages awarded by
court of justice for the offence are collect
able, and it is some satisfaction to the
party wronged that the wronger is made
to suffer; but in most cases the pirates are
lars to the laws award.
HosTE1TER's STOMACH BITTERs being
standard tonic, marketable everywhere,
and representing the value affixed to it as
accurately as national bank bill repre-
sents the amount expressed on its face, has
been extensively counterfeited and simu-
lated. The proprietors have spent many
thousand dollars in hunting up and hunt
ing down irresponsible individuals and
firms who have given their minds to this
dirty work. These parties-some Of them,
at least-have way Of changi their
base, though they never change the: base
ness. When an injunction is laid upon
them in one part of the country, they some
times "vamoose" to another, and try the
trick again. In some cases, it is necessary
to Kill them two or three times over. Fer
haps the best thing that can be done under
these circumstances is to clay an injunc-
ton" upon all who use the Bittcrs to buy

A NEw AND GRAND EPOCH IN MEDICINE
DR.. Maggiel is the founder of now mcdi-
calsystem! The quantitarians, whose vast
internal doses enfeeble the stomach and
paralyze the bowels, must give precedence
to the man who restores health and appe-
tite, with from one to two Of his extraordi-
nary Pills, and cures the most virulent
sores with box or so of his wonderful and
all-healing Salve. These two great speci-
tics Of the Doctor are fast supersedng all
,hc stereotyped nostrums Of the day. Ex-
.raordinary cures by Maggiers Pills and
Salve havo opened the eyes Of the public to
the ineficiency Of the (so-called) remedies
OF others, and upon which people have so
long blindly depended. Maggiers Pills are
not OF the class that are swallowed by the
dozen, and of which overy box full taken
creates an absolute necessity for another.
One or two OF Maggieps Pills suffices to
place the bowels in perfect order, tone the
stomach, create an appetite and render the
spirits light and buoyant. There is no
gripping and no reaction in tho form Of con-
stipation. II the liver is affected, its func-
tions are restored; and if the nervous sys-
tom is feeble, it is invigorated This last
quality makes the medicines very desirable
Tor the wants of delicate females. Ulcerous
ana eruptive diseases are literally extin-
eulshed by the disinfectant power Of Mag
gels Salve. In fact, it is here announced

Our Delegates to the Convention.


We quoted and commented on an
extract from the New York Ne,os,
touching the bearing and conduct of
the Southern delegates in the Phila-
delphia Convention. The News. in
an article, in its issue of the 21st
inst, has considerably modified it's
tone, and says that Certain facts
which have come to its knowledge
relieve some of the Southern dele.
gates from the censure it has hereto
fore expressed
The explanation is simply this, and
which the Neos ought to have pre-
viously known-that the Southern
delegates in attending the Convcn-
ton did not hope, expect or desire to
exercise II controlling influence in
shaping the action of that body, and
that their chief object was to testify.
by their presence, their desire to
have all the States restored to their
constitutional relations with the Go
vernment, and their perfect readi-
ness to unite with conservative men
of all parties at the North in the
work of restoration; that the plat
form of principles came from the
North, and that the Southern dele
gates merely assented to what was Of
ferred to them.
The Ne'rs also states that certain
exceptional phrases in the address
were the subject of discussion, and
were opposed by some of the South
ern delegates; that, on their remon-
STRANGE, they were ordered to be
stricken out, but that the member of
the committee having that matter in
charge failed to do so, and the ad-
dress was read with the Objectionable
phrases still retained On becoming
acquainted with these facts, the Nems
makes its explanations. Among t. ose
who endcavored to make the action
OF the Convention acceptable, the
Ners mentions the name of Hon. B.
f. Perry of this State.
Having commented on the remarks
OF the Ne"S that we thought unne-
ccssarily censorious towards the
Southern delegates, we thus give, in
brief, its explanations.
