Take Time BY the Forelock.

The nniasma which generates epidemic ferers
is now rising in clouds under the blazing beams
of the dog day sun. Every living body, as wen
as refuse animal and vegetable matter, emits
unwholesome vapors, and in crowded cities and
the dense asssmblages which business and pleas
ure call together the elements of disease are
evolved. The pressure upon every vital organ
is never SO great as in the second and third
months of SIMMER, and common sense teaches
Ms that these organs require to be reinforced TO
meet it. loi-iio1 a1 ia d-ad13 I9'
We hold our lives, so to speak, on repairing

required. Therefore build up, prop and sustain

recuperant, HosTETTERs BrTrERs. BE who
takes it may be said to clothe himself in sanitary
mail, against which epidemic win hurl It's

assertion, but great medical fact attested by
twelve years experience in, every climate of the
habitable globe. q Extremes of temperature

State Convention.

The citizens of this State who are opposed
to the radical party are requested to meet In
their respective counties, or townships, at such
time as they may deem most expedient, and
select delegates to represent their county in
State Convention to be held in PAKkEkS-
BURG, on WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 81 at
ten o'clock a. M, for the purpose of nominating
candidates for State Offices
Where there is danger that public meetings
may be interrupted by violence, we recon-
mend that delegates be designated by written
appointment signed by the voters.
We also recommend that the deleg ates from

nominate a candidate for Congress, at the State
Convention.

More Repentenee.

The Press Published the following on
Saturday last among its Washington tel
egrams: 1s -. '''
allow TO RISE THE WIND.-Every
national office. holder is to be taxed
heavily to raise corruption fund, which
is to be used to divide the Union party,
and TO help The .copperheads. Those
who have been reappointed are expected
to pay up heavily in return for the Presi-
dennis generosity
After that, we have great hopes of the
radicals. This is another evidence of
their desire to repent, and turn from the
evil of their wicked ways. r For five lor
six years they held the doctrine that any
man who differed with them in opinion
should be modified, imprisoned and driven
into exile Riots, and all kinds of dis
turbances of the peace, were instigated
women wars Sy then While helpless
babes were throttled, under the sanction
of the infamous policy which governed
the radical conspirators when they were
in power Now, however, when terror
has seized them and they causelessly fear
the goring of their own OK, they whin-
ingly denOuncc mobs and riots, and SEN
sibly agree with the conservatives that
| their previous course was criminal, bar
barous and brutal.
But this is not all. Under the thumb.
screw of public opinion, they are ready
to make further confessions. They now
condemn precisely what they practised
for years IN the shape of extortion from
Government officials, What, heretofore,
was i'm their eyes proper method of
levying political contributions, they now
characterize a. corruption fund" and
hold up their hands in holy horror at
practice they never abandoned until the
chances were Of it's being turned against
them They are decidedly improving,
and when the Radicals all honestly agree
in opposing prescription for opinions
SAX and come to the conclusion to de
nounce CORFU ION, we may expect the
dawn of that ,Olitical millennium which
is to he the pr, cursor of such good times
for our distrac ID country ,-Philadelphia

they look hundred feet distant, and
fifty feet high when in point of fact,
they are not Il 81 than two thousand feet

three hundred. Perhaps you say,

can under Urinary circumstances, but

view all the peak below point higher

appears to be near as to be fully with,
