InYigOrate one Responsible ORGAN.

The stomach is the responsible organ of
the SYSTEM. Ii the digestioni is imperfect,
every member, every gland, every muscle,
every nerve and fibre, is more or less out of
order Ali the fluids are deprayed. The
brain is clOuded. The spirits are depressed.
All dyspeptics knot0 this to be the truth.
1t is not, however. half the truth. Col
ulnns would be required to enumerate the
pains and. penalties of dyspepsia, nor
could any pen do them justice. Tens OF
thousands feel them; no man can describe
them. ~.
Can they be prevented? Can they be re
ieved? Can they be banishcd at once and
forever? UNQUESTIoNABLY THEY CAN.
No dyspeptie has ever taken HOSTEL
TIERS STOMACH BITTERS in vain.
Believe no one who says the complaint is
incurable. This great vegetable Ston1dchae
will eradicate it's eTadicating it in
thousand cases over which medical practi-
TONERS have shaken their heads ominous-
ly, saying, " Nothing can be done"
The faculty has its fallacles. One of them
is that Indigestion is the most difficult of
all the ordinary ailments of mankind TO
combat and subdue. This is mistake.
Nothing can be easier than to conquer it, if
the true specific be administered. The vege-
table combination which has become ia
nous throughout the civilized world as
HOSTETTER'S STOMACH BITTERS is
an antidote to the disease which has never
been known to fail, and fortunately 1t Is
everywhere procurable. II you wish to
fool with the dyspepsia, try the pharmaco-
pOeia prescriptions. If you want to root
out and prevent its recurrence, take the
Bitters daily. There is no discount on the
testimony in its favor. If there is man
or woman who has ever tried ii for indi-
gestion without beng benefited, the fact
has not TRANSFERRED. Universal, uncOntra-
dlcted praise avouches its wonderful tonic
virtues. decl2 d3W

serIou. ADVICE to ..Grsenr sknter,

Serious Advice TO "'GEeen" Skaters.
Now that the skating mania has
broken out with violence, an exchange
takes occasion to print the following d.
rections for new beginners:
1. Never try to skate in two direc-
tions at once. This feat has often been
attempted by new beginners, but never
successfully. 1t always ends in sorrow.
2. Eat few apples for refreshment
sake while skating, and be sure TO
terS to break their ShlnS over. Fast
skaters are your natural enemies, and
should not be allowed. to enjoy them
selves peaceably.
3. Sit down occasionally-nom matter
where-riGht in the way OF the rest of
the party, if you want 10. There is ne
law TO prevent n new beginner from sit
ting down whenever he has an inclina-
ton to do so.
4. When you meet a particularly
handsome lady, try 10 skate on both
sides of her at once. This is very pret-
ty, and sure 10 create a sensation. If
the lady's big brother is in sight, it is
we'll to omit this.
5. Skate over all the small boys at
once. Knock 'em down. 1t makes
great fun, and-they like it.
6. If you skate into hole in the ice
take it cody. Think how you would
feel if the water was boiling hot.
7. If your skates are too slippery,
slippery. This will be fun for d. NicoIi
& Bro. who keep u fancy bazaar. IN. B.
buy new pair. Keep buying new
pairs till you lind pair that are not
We don't expect pair of skates for
this notice, but if they are sent, we feel
tolerably sure they will not be thrown
out of the window.l
s. In sitting down, do it gradually.
Don't be too suddenj you may break
the ice.
9. When you fall headlong, examine
the straps of your skates very carefully
every body think you fell because your
skate was loose. Beginners always do,
you know.
10. Wear heavy overcoat or cloak
till you get thoroughly warmed up,
and then throw it OF and let the wind
cool you. This will insure you a fine
cold, that will last you as long
as you live.
II. Alter you get SC you can skate
| tolerably we'll, skate yourself sick i'm
mediately. Don't be reasonable about
it; skate three or four hours-skate
franticaIly-Skate till you can't stand
up. Do this every day, and it will be
sure to make you sick at last; and then
you may die, and that will be an ex-
cellent thing; it will be such a good
example TO the rest of the young
people.
Afew simple remarks for lady skaters
are added:
l. you wear filters on the ice, be
sure your calves are properly adjusted.
The spectators along the bank are gem
orally critical.
2. Scream prsttily in passing an air
hole and give the arm OF Charles Au-
gustus frantic squeeze. It makes him
feel his oats, in a protectionaI way.
5. If your skating Iartner is eligible,
and your foot is pretty, don't hesitate
in asking him to adjust your skate
| straps every ten minutes. He Will
rather like it.

LADIES' DRESSES AND THEIR cOsr.-

LADIES DREssEs AND THEIR Cost
A lady correspondent of San Francis
CO paper writes:
"One lady of my acquaintance, of re-
fined and cultivated tastes, and noted
for her tasteful wardrobe for home as
well as street costumes, expends upon
it SO per month. OF course, her own
graceful handiwork is apparent in a
large proportion of her apparel. An
other, less circumscribed, dresses very
handsomely on SIS per month; and still
another, whose genteel outfit attracts
many an observant eye upon Mont
gomery street, succeeds in keeping her
expenditures within $50 per month.
These are not suppositionaI cases nor
isolated onesi their name is legion"
Commenting upon this item, the edit
or remarks:
eve suggest to the ladies in question
that they can make good thing of it,
financially, by opening school in this
city for the purpose OF teaching women
how to dress with taste and economy.
If they can teach women how to get
themselves up in good shape at an ex-
pense of from SI20 to $40 per annum,
We venture to say they can realize more
than the teachers of any other art in
existence"

It seems pretty certain that the AlGbG-
ma claims are really TO be submitted TO
arbitration. The Times has received au-
thority to state that, sin reply 10 a com
munication received from the Govern
ment Of the United States, Her Majesty's
Minister at Washington has been in
structed to ascertain whether that Go
vernment is prepared to accept the prin-
ciple of arbitration upon the pending diff
f~erences arising out of the late civil war,
provided an agreement can be come to as
to the points to which such arbitration
should apply" Of course the last ''pro-
vided" involves the whole difficulty.
Lord Russell decided 10 exclude the
AIa6am1 claims from the arbitration, as
matters involving England's good faith
in executing her own municipal law, Of
which she alone could be the Judge. But
it seems pretty certain that Lord Stanley
does intend 10 admit arbitration on this
point, and we heartily hope that the
arbitration may be against us, so as to
give us a right to present similar claims
to the United States in future.-Ibid.

ST. JOHNS CHURCH,
CHRISTIANSTED 5TH FEB. 1867.

Divine Service was held this afternoon
in this Church by the Rector, Rev. BRANCH;
being the anniversary of that terrible ca
lamity by which, on the memorable night
of 5th of February last year, a great part
of this town was destroyed, and which in
Guided in its ravages this beautiful edifice.
A large congregation was assembled to
join in thanksgiving to Providence for the
merciful deliyerance which this community
experienced on that awful night, when the
whole town laid at the mercy of the de-
youring element, whose ravages Providence
alone stayed.
Revd. BRANCH addressed the congrega-
ton in a very impressive manner, calling
to their remembrance the sorrows and la
mentations of that night. He took occa-
sion to reprove his congregation on their
want of trust in Providence reminding
them, that scarcely one of them, after the
fire, thought that in one single year after
that event they should again meet in their
own Temple to bow in submission to the
All-wise dispensations of Providence and
thank God for His mercies.
A collection was afterwards made, the
amount of which we are unable to state in
time for this issue.

to have been an accomplish of Wilkes
Booth in the assassination of Mr.. Lincoln,
was surrendered to the Capt. Of the Amer
lean corvette Swaiara, by the Egyptian
Government on the 22nd ultimo The
mans adventures during the twenty
months he has been perdW are not a little
extraordinary. He was concealed for five
months in the neighbouhrood of Mon
treal, having escaped into Canada lmme-
diately after the murder Of the President.
La September 1865, he took passage
under the, name of Mccarthy in a steamer
bound from Quebec to Liverpool. On
the passage he declared who he was to
a fellow passenger, who informed the
American Consul in Liverpool against
him. Mr.. Adams, the American Ambas-
sador, did not think the evidence strong
enough TO warrant an application for the
mans arrest. Meantime Suratt went to
London and thence 10 Paris, ultimately
going to Rome where he enlisted in the
Papal Zouaves, under the name OF John
Watson. In this capacity he continued
some months when a comrade, to whom
he had also declared himself, Informed

The next time he was heard of he was

continued till he was found to have sailed
