The human system, the most delicate and
sensitive Of all created things, should be duly
prepared to meet the shock occasioEed by q
sudden change in the temperature of the air
Even the solid metals contract and expand I'M
der cold and heat-so that if man were com.
posed of iron, instead Of frail tissues and fbres
circulating fluids and brittle osseous matter,
his frame would not be proof against the vicis-
situdes Of climate. AS it is, it behooves every
one, especially the feeble, to fortify the frail
tenement of mortality against the inclemency
of the present season A wholesome, strength
supplying vegetable tonic and Alternative is the
preparatory medicine ? required, and among
medicinal agents of this character, HOSTEL
TIERS STOMACH BITTERS stand supreme.
In q successful career of nearly a quarter of a
century the preparation has never been equal
led or approached, and its sales are now larger
than those of any half dozen articles purpOrt-
ing to belong to the same class, that has even
been advertised in this country. As 4 remedy
and preventive of DYSPEPSIA and all its COM
pliCatiOns, it may be said to have Tired dorm
competition and TO be the standard specific of
the Western Hemisphere. A course of this
genial restorative at the commencement of
Winter is the suTest safeguard against all the
complaints which are caused or aggravated by
exposure to cold.

THE demise of the old National In
telligeRcer, which was established in
the year 1900, and has been a favorite
with gentlemen of tho extreme con
sentative school, ever since its IS
adjustment, has created quite a
sensation among them. They have
been devising means to revive the pa
per, but its liabilities, which are said
to amount to $4,000, constitute too
heavy a load for them to shoulder.
Democratic politicians manifest in
tense sorrow at its demise, for they
have heretofore made much of its
sympathy and support as the great
conservative Wing paper in times
past. The htelEgencer really expired
when GALES & SEAToN, its former
proprietors, departed this life. Since
their death. it has been the National
Inteligencer in nothing but name.

The Specific Appropriation Bill
ARGUMENT OF hon. SAMUEL K.
PEtKINS BEFORE THE ST.
PREME COURT.
A Full and Complete Exposition of
the Quorum Question.


We give below that portion of the
argument made by Hon. Samuel E.
PERKINS, OF eighteen years a member
for the Bench, before the Supreme
Court, which refers to the questions
OF w hat constitutes the House?''
and w hat constitutes the Quorum ?''
After lengthy examination of the
principle that the court could not 90
behind the record, on the decision as
to the validity of the bill, the Judge
said:
1 have argued this case thus far
upon the the theory that a quorum
could be no less than two-thirds of
the largest possible number the House
could consist Of under the Constitu-
ton, viz: 81; but | submit that this
view Of the quorum is erroneous.
This question has been so exhaust
lively discussed of late that can add
nothing new to the argumant.
/. The Natural Meaning of the
Constitution. The Constitution or
dams, Sec. 2 of Art. 4, that the num-
Der of the House shall not exceed
one hundred. and the statute de-
clares that it shall consist Of one
hundred members. Nothing is said
IN the statute or section of the Con-
stltutiOn cited relative to the number
OF the House, as to what or how
many shall constitute a quorum.
That is provided for elsewhere in the
Constitution. This fact it is import-
ant to bear in mind in discussing the
question of quorum.
Thus far the Constitution and stat
ute have nurnOrtad m daGro - -,
vide for the creation of House, say
1ng nothing as to a quorum of it.
W hat then is House of Representa-
tlSesI HOY many are absolutely re-
05ired to constitute ito hiring 4

question decides the whole matter

CINCINNATI votes, ten to one, in
favor of aid to a railroad from that
city to Chattanooga. Its citizens are
shrewd enough to see that in reaching
out after the enormous trade of the
South they can afford some outlay.
Meanwhile, what is st. Louis doing
to push the st. Louis and Paducah,
the St. Louis and Cairo, and the ST.
Louis and Henderson roads, each of
which Is as important to US as the
Chattanooga to Cincinnati ?-7St- Louis
Democrat.
St. Louis seems to be exhausting
all her energies in establishing direct
trade with Europe. In doing so, she
is in danger of overlooking other in
terests that are of equal if not greater
importance. While the shipping of
grain direct to Europe. without break
ing bulk, Is in the nature of an ex-
pertinent, the building of railroads
cannot be regarded in the same light.
Every railroad completed must in
evitably increase her business and
add to her wealth Especially
is st. Louis interested in a
direct railroad Communication with
this city through Southern Illinois.
By it she would have a direct and
excellent route through Nashville,
Tenn, to the Southern States on
the Atlantic seaboard. and also bet
ter communication with the States
bordering on the Gulf. These States
look to the Northwest for their sup
ply Of grain and provisions. The
Democrat is right when it says this
road IS Of as much Importance to St.
Louis as the Chattanooga road to
Cincinnati
