An Autumn Suggestion.

Now, as heavy fogs arise and searching
winds commence to blow; now as the hu-
man body, exhausted like inanimate nature
by the heats of Summer, begins to wilt and
droop: now, ere the Indictment winter
makes it's trying onset; NOW is the time
for preparatory course of the best accli-
mating medicine in existence.
HOSTETTER'S STOMACH BITTERS.
Fever and Ague is rampant in all parts
of the country. Quinine, the physicians
admit, will not qucll the phase Of the dis
ease which at present prcvades the entire
West. 1t is we'll that it is so, for the REM
ely (so-called) is deadlier than the malcdy.
But if quipine is inefficient i'll intermittent
tCGvcrs,
iOSTETTER' 5 BITTEnS.
are irresistible. 1t would be safe to make
a contract under heavy penalties, that any
be exempted from the disorder for any pr
ticular time, provided every inhabltant
would take the BITTERS according to d.
rections, during the term of the contract.
There has never been an instance in which
this sterling invigorant and anti-terblle
medicine has failed to ward off the com.
plant, when taken duly as a protection
against maleria. Hundreds of physicians
have abandoned all the official specifics
and now prescribe this harmless vegetable
tonic, and nothing else, as preventative
and cure for all the forms of chills and
fever. Vigor is the thing most needed in
these cases, as we'll as in dyspepsia and
nervous affections, and
HOSTETTER'S BITTERS
are the safest, surest, and most wholesome
strengthening preparation that human
skill has yet concocted.

had recently come over from Ireland.
The wounded are mostly at the North
field House, which, for the time being, has
been converted into hospital. Seven
patients among the severest wounded are
in the BARRIERS shop. DR.. Bradford and
other physicians continue assidious in their
attentions to the sufferers. The remarka-
bic patience and heroic endurance of the
injured men is noticed by all who see them.
They are mostly hopeful and quite cheer
full.
Concerning the cause of the accident
there seems now to be but one opinion-it
is all due TO the neglect of the engineer.
Mr.. Abbott. The engine was the Gen.
Sheridan, nearly new machine. She is
said by Mr.. Perkins the master mechanic,
to have been in perfect order. She was
one of the handsomest and best on the
road. Abbott is said to have shown sim
gular instances Of Observation-Disclosures here
t,,fore, and says he thought the bridge was
tlaere all right. He exhibits indications Of
insanity today. He is about AS years OF
age, has been in the employ of the com
l'any 3 years aad has always had their
confidence as safe, reliable man.
The rate of speed at which the train
was running is variously Judged at from
wenty to twenty-five miles an hour. The
grade from Mortified to the bridge i;
about fifty feet to the mile, and near the
bridge is still heavier (; the ascent of the
last few rods is ample, they say, to have
stopped the train had the steam been shu
off. All agree that the engineer did no
/ reverse until the train reached the abut
1nent, and then only on the calls and i'm
| portunities Of those about him. The en-
CINE itself went so fas before it wa
stopped that the tire of the driver-wheel
jutted over the abuiment four inches. Ha,
it gone over, the havoc would have beef
far more fearful than it was.
1t appears also that after the engineeI
had reversed his engine he jumped of
but fortunately he efficiently recovere'
hin ,self TO jump on again. before it ha,
got under motion, the other way, otherwis
it 7ould have started off without driver
and we would have been obliged TO chron
icle another appalling disaster from tn
coll ision with the down express train.

81 A favorable sign of political pro-
gress was shown in the Senate, the other
day, by the introduction of proposition
by Senator j. r. Doolittlc, to amend the
reconstruction act so as TO give suffrage
first to all persons who were entitled to
vote by the laws of the several States as
they existed in 1860; Second to all who
have served one year in the Union army !;
third, to all who can read the English Ian
guage; and fourth to all who possess prop
erty to the value of $3.50. There is of
course much unsoundness in this PROPOSE
ton, but it is concession to impartial suf-
rage, and shows gratifying state of pro-
gress on the part of Mr.. Doolitile, who
has been acting with the democratic party
for the last two years, and whom he will
not be able to bring up to even this STAN
dard.

THE OLDEsTAND BEsT.--The Sringfeld
(Mass) Republican pronounces "Littell's
Living Age decidedly the best magazine
of its class published in the United States,
if not in the world" The Rev. Henry
Ward Beechcr says, "Were /, in view of
all the competitors now in the field to
choose, | should undoubtedly choose the
Living Age. There is not in any library
that / know Of, so much instructive and
entertaining reading in the same number
of volumes" And it is similarly endorsed
by the best writers and thinkers of the
day.
1t has been published for more thon
twenty years, and is now enlarged. 1t is

Stories, Poetry Literary, Scientific, Bio
graphical, Historical and Political Infor-
mation,--from the whole body of English
Periodical Literature, making volumes

its conductors to present complete resume
of the best literature of the day, in all it:
freshness and variety, combining the usefu
and instructive with the tasteful and en-
tertaining, in a manner not attempted by
any other periodical of its class. Tn,
Home Journal of New York says -
Its standard of selections is higl

an enduring value. Its representation o.

practical, the social and scholarly, tn,
grave and gay, with skill which is no
where surpassed, aud which is admirabl,
suited TO please the cultivated reader;
and thai, long distinguished as pionee
in the republication of the choicest foreig
periodical literature, it still holds the fore
most rank among works of its class"

able underground stream, with swift cur
rent, and no outlet above the surface of the
ground this side of Lake Erie. 1t was
discovered several years ago by man
who was returning from days chopping
in the woods. In walking over slightly
sunken place he noticed hollow sound,
and turning, struck the ground with his AK.
The AK broke through and disappeared,
and never has been heard from since.
Further investigations showed rock six
feet below the surface, with crevice n
foot or more wide, in which water could be
seen several feet below. By tracing its
course further down and breaking through
the crust, the same phenomenon appeared
again, and by dropping piece OF wood or
other floating substance ia the upper aper-
ture, it was soon seen to pass to the lower
one, showing strong current. A lead
and line let down to the depth of seventy
feet found no bottom. The supply of wa
ter is only slightly affected by the d. oath,
and pump set up in one of the places
above mentioned, has furnished the purest
water to the whole neighborhood during
the late dry season. 1t is certainly quite
a remarkable stream.
