Spread the Truth!

Some medical men insist that il u undig-
ioned to advertise = remedy, however
| valuable It may be. Queer reasoning this.
Ills like saying that an article which tho
world nesis should be hid in corner.--,hat
benefits and blessings may be to widely
difused-that the means Of protecting aSd
restoring health should be . close mono.
poly, and not accessible TO all. The argu.
nent is bad. II 10 worse than that: it 10
iahumon. Suppose HOSTErTERs'S BIT
TERS-an absolute specific for dyspepsia.
biliousnsss and nervous debility had ne.
yer been known beyond the repertoire OF
the faculty. what would have been the con.
sequence! Instead OF curing and iuvigo-
:a,ing millions, the good effects Of the pre-
comparative few. There is the highest au.
thor!ty for saying that light should not be
hid unjsi . bushel that whatever is ex.
cellent should be- placed - . city on .
hill, where oil men can take coenizance of
il. 1t is upon this principle that the BIT
TIERS have been advertised and continue
to be advertised in every Newspaper Of any
promioence in the western bemisphe and
that the spontaneous testimonials in its
favor have been translated into all writ
ten languages. Thousands enjoy perfect
health to-day who would be languishine
on beds Of sickness If the newspapers had
not spread the truth ,eith regard 10 this sne-
qualed iatiyoront and corrective far and
wide. Suppose profit AS been reaped
from this publicity. Is ehst any argument
against it: II the public health has been
protected If lives have been saved If
the feeble have been strengthened and the
sick restored. greet good has been aeeow
piished and who 40 mean a. to erndge to
.xertions thus directed their fair reward:

In to-day's paper will be found tn.
Civil Rights bill. Every per.or
wishing to know the light in which
We are held by those in power, should
read this document, and also pre-
serve it for future reference. Despite
the action Of the President, the radi.
calls have passed the bill over his We
to, thus showing to the world that
being in the sscendency, they intend
to take advantage of their strength
to carry their aims even at the ruina
ton Of the country. These puritan.
ical defenders of the Constitution,
will hack at it until it is so dis6gured
that it cannot be recognized. Then
we may look out for one of the most
despotic governments under the sun,
and it will be too late to make a
change for the better.
1t is evidently the purpose Of that
body to injure the South as much az
they can, and this they will do, judg-
ing from their bold and contemplate
acts. Though President johnson is
evidently posted in the intentions Ct
that class, and endeavors like the
Goddess Of Liberty to watch over
their deliberations and check them
in their mad career. yet, We far he
will not prove successful. Our only
IL that the Great Jehovah
in His infinite goodness will soften
their hearts and touch their con-
sciences, so that they may see the fol-
y Of their ways and alter their pro-
gramne. Let NJ pray for the change,
and submit to the will Of the Lord.
