WHAT IS A TONIC!-Bear this in mind
that although tonic is, to a certain extent, a
stimulant-a stimulant, unnodifed by any me-
dtctnat substances, IS not a tonic, but DEeIL1-
TANT. In HOSTETTER'S STOMACH BIT
TIERS, there is stimulating clement of tho
purest grade, manufactured in this or any
other country. Every fiery and corrosive oil
or acid which contamnates the ordinary
liquors of commerce, is expelled from the rue
sp,rH which forms the alcoholic basis of the
BITTERS, by careful and repeated rectifca-
tlon. Tho juicos OF the valuable roots, barks
ana herbs. infused into this wholesome pro-
duct OF the finest grain, still further modify it's
nature; 80 that it becomes, in fact, a simple
difusive agent, minus all the heady and brain
exciting properties which belong, moro or
less, to all liquors in a raw state 1t is merely
the safe and harmless vehicle which renders
the medicinal virtues Of the preparation
Notwithstanding their active power and
difusing them through the System. Hence
the pleasant and gentle glow which is expert
fenced after taking dose of the BITTERS.
Instead OF creating headache, al unmedicatcd
stlmuiants are apt to do, this salubrious tonic
ls the best known remedy for that complaint.
1t Gains and soothe cerebral excitement,
strengthens tho nerves, promotes the secre.
tlon or tho gastric juice, invigorates the
bowels, determines the fluids to the surface.
improves the appetite, increases the animal
Vlgor, regulates organic action, and, FROM it's
mid yet effective alternative qualities, is the
very beet preparation that can be administer
ca TO the weaker sex in the peculiar difficulties
10 which their organization subjects them.

Work on the Cairo 4 Vincennes rail-
road has been stopped and the enterprise
abandoned. This will add to the value
Of the Evansville, Carmi Paducah
road, and will give IL an impetus that
will soon build It, Paducah Herald
A gentleman from Evansville informs
is that prominent citizens Of that place,
accepting the above report as true, are
immensely happy. They think the pro-
ject killed Off They were never more
mistaken In their lives. The work, gen
orally speaking, Is going On, and it has
never for moment entered the mind OF
any well Informed person that the en-
terprise will be abandoned. IL is not
denied that Gen. Burnside is embarrass-
ed 4; but the friends Of the road, instead
Of feeling any uneasines. over the aspect
OF affairs, look forward to change that
will place the undertaking on surer
footing than ever. Negotiations looking
70 that end are on foot, and will be con.
cluded In few days, weeks at farthest.

st. Louis ever expects to amount to any

The Dog Tooth shooting seraps,

A gentleman who resides In Dog
Tooth Bend, aud who processes to be en-.
tirely familiar with all the details OF the
late difficulty between Elliott and Rem.
mick, gives version OF the AFFAIR quite
different from that recently published In
the Bulletin"
Ills said that Remmick was intoxicated
and very abusive, that he grossly insulted
several ladies present, and approaching
Elliott struck him violent blow In the
face. or course the blow was resented
and the parties clinched aud fell to the
floor. They were separated; but Rem
mick expressed determination to kill
Elliott and again rushed upon him, when
Elliott drew his pistol and fired. The
ball, as before stated, struck Remmick
in the breast, infiicting very serious
wound; but even after this Remmick
continued to pursue Elliott In violent
and threatening manner. Our informant
further states that Elliott remains at
home and there has been no effort made
to arrest him II Is said, indeed, that
public sentiment justifies the shooting as
an act Of self defense.
This Is the third version of the affair
that has appeared In the. Bulletin and
as il comes more directly than the 9TH
ers, we are disposed to credit 10 as the
true one. lGtteT
