TBT1BR's CELEBRATED STOMACH BrrrBRs as a specific
for recruiting the enfeebed body and cheering the
desponding mind has passed into proverb. Iu the
United States where this marvellous tonic has borne
down all opposition and eclpsed all rivalry, the de-
mand for 1t has annually increased In heavier and
heavier ratio for years, until, at last the regular
sales of this preparation exceed those Of all other
stomachlcs combined. Eminent members of the
medical profession and hospital surgeons without

Mr.. Editor ro
a., We, as q people, are either on the
stool of repentance for past default,
or else we have adopted the policy of
say nothing and do nothing. I fear
too many have recognized the negro
and Radical power, to aot with spirit,
consistency and dignity in opposition.
Some men even of character and
standing, once sworn enemies to the
military billsand reconstruction un-
der them, have turned queer political
somersaolts for potty Offices under the
negro power; he,oers Of wood and
dra,oers of water for the negro govern
