The physical structure of the strongest hui

from unwholesome influences; but this prOtec.
ton is imperfect, and cannot be safely relied on
in unhealthy regions, or under circumstances of
more than ordinary danger Therefore, ii is
wisdom il Is prudence. it is common sense to
provide against such contingencies, by taking
an ANTIpoTE IN ADVANCE in other words, by
fortifying the system with HOSTETTER'S
STOMACH BITTERS-the most complete pro.
tective against all the epidemic and endemic
maladies that has ever been administered in
any country AS remedy for Dyspepsia

Whoever suffers the pangs OF indigestion any
where on the face of the earth where HOSTEL
TIERS STOMACH BITTERS can be procured

lists this Invaluable TONIC and Alternative

healthy condition. To the nervous 1t il also

lirIned constipation it alss affords speedy and
permanent relief

have tried the medicine will never use another,

have not made the experiment we cordially re-
commend IN early application to the BITTERS
whenever they are stricken by disease of the

OUR You've FoLKs.-This is one OF
the best juvenile periodicals that has
ever been given to the public. 1t was
excellent at the very start, and has
steadily risen i'll character and public
estimation from its first number down
TO the present, which is its forty-third
monthly issue. The stories, poetry, and
contributions, of greatly diversified
kind, are invariably such as are attrac-
tive and refining, as well as instructive
TO the class for which they are intended.
We take satisfaction in giving our
helping hand in widening, if possible,
the circulation of so pure and elevating
a publication, and are gratified to place
it in the possession, from month to
month, of our Youthful family group.

celebrated remark that Butler was
" bottled up" at Bermuda Hundred.
He takes that back; is absolutely sor.
~ that he ever said it; in fact he deep

The New Tax Bill.

The tax bill as reported by the Ways
and Means committee Saturday after
noon is about one-third as long as the
bill tabled last Monday. II fixes the
tax on whisky ut sixty cents; chewing
tobacco, sixteen cents; smoking tobac-
co, thirty-two cents; cigars, five dollars.
The present rates on tobacco are fifteen
and forty cents, and on cigars the same
as in the new bill. The administrative
sections of the measure are substan-
TALLY the same as in the former bill,
except it is provided that any spirits
transported to port ofentry and placed
in the export warehouse cannot be
withdrawn even on payment of the tax,
but must be exported This feature did
not receive the unanimous sanction OF
the committee. The bill will be
called up for actisn on Monday, and
then no other business will be in order
till it is finished.

put upon Theodore's character, Victoria
being condemned for not answering his
letter in 1862, even though that commu-
nication was $50 strongly stepped in ar
rogance as to make him the jest of all
Europe"
The sketch of Mr.. Chase, i'll relation
to his administration as Secretary OF the
Treasury, says: 1T is record of I'M
SMILED splendor, and has justly wen for
him the gratitude of every true Amer
lean citizen. Yet praise must not stop
short at his integrity, his zeal, or his
unintermitted labor in the discharge of
his office. What makes the peculiar
glory Of his administration is, that the
Secretary saved the nation in u momen-
tous crisis, not by any trick of diploma
cy or finance, but by moral force"

An interesting suit, involving the IT,
tie to valuable tract of two thousand
two hundred acres of land, thirteen
miles from Pittsburg, on the Ohio River,
has just been decided in the Pittsburg
Common Pleas Court. The land was
once owned by the late Thomas Nc
Kean, Chief Justice of Pennsylvania,
and was by him conveyed to his daugh-
ter Sarah, who was married. about the
close of the last century to Spanish
MARQUIS. After her death, under the
impression that she died without issue,
the property was escheated, and revert
ed to the State. Lately, the Secretary
ofthe Spanish Legation, i'll Washington,
took proceedings to recover possession
of the property for Madame Pierrard,
claiming to be daughter of the Mar
chioness. The claim was established to
the satisfaction of the Court, and q de-
cree granted in favor of the claimant,
on Tuesday.
