Genuine Enterprise.

The Presidents Message was received
at the REGISTER Office on Monday even
ing. In addition to getting out the
regular issue of our paper, the Message
was divided up, arranged under appro-
pirate headings for the readers conve-
nience, "a method adopted by all jour-
nails of "enterprise,") put in type,
worked off and issued to our city read,
ers on Tuesday morning, ahead of all
competition. We could have issued ouI
Extra some hours earlier, had we not
deemed it proper to withhold it until
advised that the injunction forbiddins
it's publication until afternoon had been
removed.
We deem this fully as fair an exhi-
bition of enterprise" as would have
been our disregard of Thanksgiving
day. Our experience during the war
together with the admonitions of our
"loyap neighbors, Taught us that it was
"disloyal" not TO observe all days set
apart by the President for purposes OF
thanksgiving. Retaining that lesson,
we prefer, upon all such occasions as that
alluded to, to repress our enterprise
in favor of our loyalty" Upon all
proper occasions, as in tho present in
stance, we let our enterprise" have full
sway, and, of course, it shows the
REGISTER TO be, as before intimated,
far ahead Of all competition.

Faith Well Founded.

In old times, at the commencement of every
season, it was the fashion to take q strong ca
thartic as a safeguard against a change Of TEN
pcrature. 1t was worse than senseless prac.
tice. The people Of our day understand the
matter better. Instead Of depicting the system
they reinforce it. In the method they adopt
they exhibit wise discrimination. Instead Of
resorting 10 the Initiated stimuiants ofcommerce
or any of the compounds derived from them, they
put their faith in the only absolutely pure in
vigorapt procurable in the market-HOSTET.
TIERS STOMACH BITTERS. Their faith is
well founded. Never has any tonic medicine
been prepared with such serupulous precision
and conscientious care. 1t il vegetable com.
pound of which every ingredient is sound whole
some and medicinal in the tine sense of the
word. Now, We have three prominent national
complaints. One half of the adult population OF
the United States suffer more less, either from
diseases of the stomach, arrangements of the
liver or affections Of the kidneys In no other
land under Heaven are these maladies 50 gener.
al as in this country, and HOSTETTER'S BIT.
IERS is n specific for them all, unless organic
in their origin aud. therefore, beyond cure.
And let those who are fortunate enough 70 be
exempt from them ut present understand one
great fact, viz that an occasional use of this
vitaizng tonic will as certainly prevent them as
the sun will prevent the earth from freezing
where its genial beams descend.
The Wheeling daily register. [volume] (Wheeling, W. Va.) 1864-1878, 1867-12-04

! ton and drawing q wholesome lesson
from the Fall elections, the Message al
lpdes in a very pointed manner to the
| impeachment programme. The deter
mination of the President that 80 CO.
ordinate departmtnt of the Govern
ment" shall not be abolished, or in other
words that the Executive shall not be
suspended during trial, even at the risk
of violent collision, will be largely ap-
plauded.
The applause would be much more
general, if the people did not fear that,
when the hour for action comes, there
may be relaxation of the energies that
now sound trumpet blast SO defiant.
At the same time, we do not see how,
after speaking in this manner, the Pres
ident can act in any other, and we
therefore hope, that should the respon-
sible occasion come, he will find "the
power to do, born of the will to dare"
The actual workings of the "Tenure OF
Office Bill" are exhibited in very ef-
fective manner. The folly and danger
of legislating for office-holders instead
of for the people, are criticized without
mercy.
The discussion of the finances is the
weakest part of the Message. 1t is
strong in its statement of evils, but
feeble in its prescription of remedies.
All admit the importance of speedy
return to specie basis, but few assert
its possibility. The message utterly
fails to point out the safe path to- re-
sumption. 1t is true that "the project
of retiring our paper money, that the
return of silver and gold to the avenues
of trade may be invited" is one which,
if continued long enough, will drive
paper money out of sight, but
the intermediate commercial disaster
and ruin, seem to form no part of the
Presidents calculation. His discussion
of the finances seems to be the result of
a compromise, embodying the arguments
of the PENDLEToN plan, with the con-
illusions of the contractionists. Look
ing one way, and shooting another, the
President misses the mark most deplOr-
ably.
We shall not attempt further analysis.
We leave the Message with the belief
that in many respects, it has no superiors
as State paper. The time of its pro-
mitigation is opportune. Thoughtful
men are everywhere bordering upon
the political situation, and evincing an
unusual eagerness to inquire into the
why and wherefore of our I'M
fortunate condition. Such men will
read this paper with interest They will
feel its power, they will remember its
words, and they will quote its argu-
ments. When thousands of minds,
heretofore insensible to argument, are
open to conviction, 4 document of this
character will be almost unlimited in
it's influence for good.

MISCELLANEOUS.
A Young Lady Unable to Decide Be-
tween Two Lovers.

Yesterday morning, between IL and l,
private watchman of 4 warehouse opposite
the second dock, above Walnut street, noticed
two young men and young woman walk
solemnly out upon the pier and there stand,
as If IN the most earnest consultation. Their
actions he thought suspicious, SO that he
crept close to see what they might do. The
conversation was carried on in -ery low tones,
so that he could hear nothing, till at last tie
young men in turn kissed the young woman
there was n melo dramatic tarewell-and
then a splash in the water.
The young woman had Invested herself of
bonnet, shawl, and perhaps of waterfall, and
plunged into the river. The young men stood
idly upon the pier, gazing down on the gloomy
waters, and made no attempt to save her
This was thrillingly strange to the watchman
lying perdU. He lost no time in running to
the wharf and in juming overheard after the
would be suicide. She made no resistance to
the Waterman, and by the aid of plank and
n rope or two from vessels lying near by, both
were again safe on terra frma, very wet. In
the excitement the two young Iuen disap-
Peared, but were subsequently appreheuded
and confined in the harbor police station for
balance of the night. Through the interces-
sion of the young lady they have been released.
The young woman was very reticeut, and
refused to give any other name than Jennie
1t is supposed that she resides somewhere in
the neighborhood of Current alley. From
what few admissions she made to Lieut. Edgar,
commanding the harbor patrol it would seem
that the young men were lovers of such ex-
ceediaS fine parts that she could not decide
between them. They began to look upon
each other with murderous eyes, so that to
save bloodshed and crime she determined to
destroy herself, that all cause of contention
might be removed. This is strange tale.
