BEAR IN NIIND.-When disease has
undermined the health, and tho physical
system has become prostrated, stimu-
liant that will not only strengthen, but re-
move the cause, should be Immediately
resortcd to. Mental distress is also a
fruitful source of the breaking down of the
constitution, and the ravagcs or this enemy
to health are truly alarming. For all such
maladies HOSTETTER'S STOMACH EFT
TIERS have been found unsurpassed. BY
acting directly upon the digestive organs.
they remove the heavy, disagrceable feel
ing after eating, 80 often complained of by
persons of delicate temperament. AS
soon as digestion is restored, the patient
finds his strength increasing and his ge-
neral health improved.
Thousands of persons certify that i. may
be relied OH i'll all cases of weakness or
nervous debility attendant upon sedcntary
habits. Tho generality OF Bitters are so
disagreeable to the taste that they arc
Objectionable to weak stomach. This is
not the case with Hostetter's Bitters.

pleasant. Balsamic plants, barks and
roots contribute their restorative Juices to
render it soothing and strengthening.
Its basis is the only pure stimulant which
has ever been produced containing no fusil
oil, or any other deleterious element. The
most careful and skillful chemists have
analyzed the Bitters, and pronounce them
harmless. This is scientific testimony;
but tho testimony of the hundreds Of
thousands who have experienced the pre-
ventive and curative effects of the great
vegetable tonic and Alternative Of modern
times ID still more conclusive. In Fever

InE SUGAR PRoDUcT. recent
speech of Hon. Mr.. Barnes, of New
York, in the House of Representa-
lives, gives some statistics of South
ern crops, from which it appears that
the sugar crop of Louisiana, whicl,
IN 1860, was 100000 hogsheads, was
IN 1856 only $4,000, and at the pre-
sent time there are in that whole sec.
tion put 347 sugar plantations. In
the English Market Produce Repieu.
there is published n full review of the
sugar trade of the world for the last
year from which it appears that the
United States and Great Britain are
much the largest consumers of sugar,
using !, ,42O, 600 tons annually, or saw
about forty-one pounds for each in.
habitant of those countries. The
total annual consumption of France.
SPAN, Italy, Belgium and Switzcr-
land, is 5O6, 900 tons. The total an
nnal consumption Of Germany is
263, 600 tons. Russia, Poland, Tur-
KEY and Greece consume only 1885, :
600 tons, or $50 pounds per head. Ii
is thought that, with the advance of
nations In civilization and wealth,
therc Is every prospect of continued
+ increase III the use of this product,
as the sources of supply are so nu-
merons and the crop so remunerative
IL Is TO be regretted that, at q period
whcn the cultivation ought to be ex-
tehdcd In our country to meet the in
creasing demand, this, like all our
othcr leading interests, is in such a
depressed condition.

The Cotton Cron.

A wet season destroys the cotton crop !;
and this has been unusually injured. "a
dry year for cotton" is an old planters
proverb. Our information from all quar-
tiers is unfavorable in the extreme. in
consequence Of the rot and the boil worm,
which are the invsriAble scconpaniments
of wet seasons. The crop must neces-
sarily be very small. Men who are basing
their calculations on three million bales
are safe purchasers II the whole crop
of the world was confined to the Southern
States, we should advise our friends 10
hold for extreme high prices As il is,
we only know that the supply will BE-
shortened, and probably a million bale'
at least from previous estimates, which
Without increased production elsewhere
must sii5en the market, and calls for I

The responsibility for all the suffer
iugs of Andsrsonville and other Con-
federate prisons Of the South. rests some
where. General Ould's letters, and the
free comments Of the Northern press,
are in fair way Of showing where that
IL. There is no escape from the great
crime being laid at Grants door. He
positively forbade the exchange Of
single able bodied man, when he knew Il
was a part Of his own policy and that Of
his Government to starve out the South
ern people, and that prisoners must
share their fate. He knew that II would
be with great difficulty the Northern pris-
oners in Southern prisons could be fed,
when 1t was the business Of the armies OF
the Union to reduce their adverssr'es to
extremity in the matter Of supplies OF
the common necessaries Of life. He
knew finally that TO feed the prisoners in
our prisons would require that the rations
of Confederates should be reduced, which
he had no right to demand or expect, ex'
cept from the self-sacrifcipg generosity
and sympathy with distressed humanity
which he knew would be irresistible to o
great and brave people. 1.
He trusted this, at the very moment
that his proclaimed policy was to starse
out the South. he trusted his own cap
tured men, whom he should have relieved
to the utmost, to the chances of such
maguanimiiy, and left them to suffer and
die as they might, rather than save them
By fair exchange of man for man, which
was offered and urged on him, when be
had three for one to spare. Thus thou
sands of his men suffered and died, in
spite of the fact that they shared with
the whole Confederate army their full
pro rata portion of its reduced rations.
The responsibility for their suferings,
and the consequent death Of thousands,
rests beyond dispute with the chief COM
officer, who denied them an ex-
change. Those who survive and their
friends will of course vote now for
