THE "EYENING EXPRESS" sAYs:-"A Report
from the New York Academy of Medicine
Hoff7s Malt Extract Beverage of Health has re-
ceived another distinction, which still further
enhances the reputation of this renowned pre-
paration from the numerous noStrums of the
day, and places 1T in position far above all So
called health preservers.
"After its introduction into the United States,
the President of the New York Academy OF
Medicine, DIR. James Anderson, appointed a
Committee TO report on this celebrated beverage,
which is not only used in enormous quantities
in Europe, but has also received the tndorse-
ment of many European scientific bodies. Mr..
HOff received from the Chairman of the Com
mittee an invitation to assist at meeting, and
had the honor to give the members of the
Academy full information as to the compound
and mode of preparation, The Committee, the
members of which had convinced themselves
in their private practice of the efficacy of this
remedy, received with appreciation Mr.. HotFs
explanations, particularly as to its virtues as
nuriment, appetizer and tonic, and as owing
to its containing only slight tinge OF alcohol,
is equally desirable for the sick and healthy.
MIR. Hoff has the satisfaction of knowing that
the Committee consider his preparation of great
value. On the 9TH instant, the report adopted,
which recommends Hof's Malt Extract Beve-
rage of health to the profession. was read at a
meeting of the Academy, and Endorsed by many
of the members present. Hence, American
science agrees with European, which has de-
claTed that Hot's Malt Extract Beverage of
Health is highly serviceable not only as an
article of diet for convalescents, but also as a
most excellent remedy for certain affections of
the throat, stomach. and bowels

FIRE The store of J. W. HANK
in the upper part Of our citys caught
fire in the cellar, last Friday evening
Tie fire was caused by coal oil catch.
ing from a candle in the cellar. Mr..
HANK had gone to the cellar to fill a
lamp from the oil barrel, setting his
candle some distance off. In turn
ing the faucet the oil spirited out and
caught from the candle. The lamp
exploded at once and almost in Mr..
HANK's hands. So great was the
force of the explosion, that it drove
the lamp up through the hard floor.
Mr.. HANKS hand was badly burned,
but he escaped from the cellar with
out further injury.
The fire was soon put out, being
confined to the cellar We have not
learned the loss sustained, but 1t can
not be large.

The RIvER.-The river, under the
influence of last weeks rain, raised
about five feet at THIS point, but it
has since been falling slowly, but
surely. and will soon be back to low
water stage.
Light draught steamers still find
water enough, and our local packets
are running regular as clock work,
and reaping rich harvest in the alb.
sence of the larger packets.
The Viola and the mail boat Vic.
tor No. 3, form an excellent daily
line between here and Portsmouth,
and their fine trips show the import
ance and extent OF the trade that
has been built up along the river be.
tween these two points. The Fl. M
Childs has Withdrawn from this
trade, to take the place of the Victor
No. 4, lately sunk, in the Portsmouth
and Big Sandy line.
The ever popular and ever sure
Kanawha Belle, still holds her own
in the Kanawha river trade. The
Ida Norvell has laid up for the
present, but we hope soon to see her
in the old trade again. The recent
rise has started out the Parkersbure
packets again, that had been com
PEELED to lay up on account of low
water, but we fear they will not be
able to run long.

Gallia County Teachers Insti-
tute.

The executive Committee of the
Gallia County Teachers Association
has arranged to hold the first insti.
tute during the week commencing OF
the 10Th of August next, in Gallipo.
lis.
Capt. VIM Mitchell, Supt. of the
Columbus Public Schools, and Prof.
VIM. Fl. Young, of Athens, have
been secured to lecture during the
institute, on best methods oe giving
instruction in the common branches;
best methods of dicipline and every
thing that pertains to the teachers
interest in the school room.
Every live teacher in the county
will no doubt be ia attendance. 1t
is fact that more teachers fail in
our schools from want Of proper
~ ethods of instruction than from q
want of technical knowledge of what
they teach. The work of the Insti-
tute will be to fill up this deficiency
in the teachers profession. II you
are teacher you can not afford to
do without what you may learn by
attending the Institute.
If School Directors want live
teachers in their Schools next winter
let them hire those, who have attend
ed the Institute. We hope to see
many of the live, active school men
of the County at the Institute.
The School Examiners have long
felt the necessity of higher stand
ard of qualification for applicants for
certificates, but have neglected to
raise the standard up to the present
time. The standard has now been
raised ami more professional hnowl-
edge will now be required of appli-
cants; no where can this knowledge
be obtained so well as at the Insti-
tute; the entire week will be drill
upon the practical things of the
school room. Teachers will 60 from
the Institute into the schools of the
County and carry into practical
operation this instruction. and the
happy effects must be apparent to
every careful thinker.
The Institute will commence on
Monday, the 26th of August, at
O'Clock P. NJ. There will be a fore
noon, an afternoon, and an evening
session each day during the week,
except on Saturday. On Saturday
the Examiners will hold an examina-
ton for applicants for certificates.
The good people Of Gallipolis feel
such warm interest for the Teach
ers of the County, that we feel secure
in assuring the Teachers that they
will all be entertained in private
families, free of expense, hence any
teacher in or out Of the County can
attend the Institute without any ex-
pense.
We hope you will be active in see
ing that all teachers and school OIL
GERS in your locality attend the In
stitute.

one of the institutions" in which our
people, as well as those of the Kama
wha valley, justly feel great interest.
She has long been connected with the
trade, and has ever been prompt, safe
and reliable. Her officers are gentle
men, all through, and careful, compe-
tent craftsmen. Hence her great popu-
larity with the business and travelling

her manifest for the downward trip last

A VALUABLE DIscoyERY.--AH dis
coveries in household economy are
national blessings In this light we
view the Queen Washing Fluid, man
ufactured by the Queen Toilet Fluid
Co., of Cincinnati. This preparation
is of actual utility, and necessity in
every well regulated household
Among the advantages claimed for
it are saving oftinae, money and labor,
il will not stain or discelor any
article of clothing, no matter how
fragile; it will break hard water, and
can be used in washing dishes, tumb-
lers, doors, windows, painted or var
nished furniture, vanished paper
and all wooden or glassware. with
out the use of soap, and left pu-er
than by the old operation, and with
out injury. In washing it requires
little or no rubbing, and when dry
the clothes will be found to possess
purity, obtained by no other process,
the whole accomplished with less ex-
pense, labor and time, than in any
other way, and without the near and
tear unavoidable in rubbing on the
washboard, pounding or machine
washing.
Samples of the fluid are now on
trial in at least fifty families in CALI
polls and we shall endeayor to pre-
sent in our next issue, testimonials
as to its merits.
