Verdict of the Faculty.
stimulants indispensable as Medicine


The most distinguished physicians in the United
States have recently been placed on the witness
stand, and have, with one voice, declared that
pure stimulants are valuable medicinal agents.
This decision of the faculty refers especially to
medicated stimulants, of which the purest and
the best at present known is HOSTETTER'S
STOMACH BITTERS. Its basis is the alcoholic
principle of the finest rye grown ia the United
States and its herbal ingredients comprise the
extracts of large number of plants, barks and
roots produced in various parts of the world, and
all noted in the countries to which they in
digenous for their powerful sanitive properties.
AS invgorant and tonic the value of the Bitters
can scarcely be overrated. Hence its extraordin-
AIRY effect in fever and ague and intermittents and
remittents OF every type It's anti-bilious proper
ties are marvellous Persons of bilious habit, by
taking ANAL quantity once or twice day, may
completely change their constitutional tendency TO
liver disease, aud escape all the unpleasant conse-
quences which arise either from the undue sensi-
tiveness the unnatural torpldity OF the hillary
organ. Chronic constipation Is erad1cated thor-
oughly and in very short space OF time by small
doses of this wholesome regulator, taken night
and morning and for all the disorders which are
superinduced by exhalations from decomposing
vegetable and animal matter in the streets OF cities,
Or the miasma OF swampy DISTRICTS 1T is, when
taken as a protective and preventive medicine the
most reliable Of all safeguards. s .3.f$

Thought I'm Music

The difficult question how Ear instru-
mental music will avail In the representa-
ton of thoughts and situations has received
an interesting calculation from no less
eminent authority than Schuman. at Is
absurd" says he, "to suppose that com
poser takes up his pen with the miserable
intention of depicting this or that actual
fact. But, for all that no one should I'M
derrate the force of external influences
and impressions An idea will often act
unconsciously on the musical Imagination;
the eye win often influence the ear and
the eye, being the most active of our or
gans, keeps constantly intruding the out
lines of objects among the melodies and
harmonies which, as the music advances,
become shaped and moulded into definite
forms The more the musical element as
sociates such external thoughts and images
with itself, the more poetical and pictur-
esque will be the composition; and the
more imaginative and strict is the concep-
ton of the composer, the more will he
arouse and rivet his hearers. What is to
prevent Beethoven, in the midst OF his
conceptions, being suddenly possessed by
the.idea of Immortality? Why should his
imagination not be kindled by the image
of a mighty hero in ruin? Or why is
some other composer not to be inspired by
the recollection of happy times gone by

composer that, while writing a certain lit

could infuse but an actual image OF the
kind. In such exquisite genre painting,

A madman I'm a hallway Train.

The Saint Public describes fearful scene
which took place short time since be-
tween the stations of Blaisy and Dion, in
q third class carriage of train on its way
from Paris to Lyons. Among the passen-
gers were three foreigners, supposed to be
natives of Flanders, who had been con-
versing in their own language during the
earlier part of the journey. About II
O'Clock at night the majority of the pass
engers were DOING, when suddenly the ST.
lence was broken by one of the strangers
who, waking up in state of raving mad
ness, broke into the most horrible cries,
and, falling upon his fellow passengers,
commenced striking and biting them right
and left A panic ensued, in which the
travellers climbed over the partition into
the adjoining compartment, followed by
the mailman, still striking and biting those
he could reach. Some persons, in their
terror, opened the door and took refuge ON
the ledge outside, although the train was
going at full speed. At length a Zouaye
closed with the lunatic, and succeeded in
pushing him out of the door. fFrF
