The writer OF the article from which these

comparatively small force of Great Britain
would be more effective than the larger
continental armies, from the fact that they
are better trained in the use OF improved
weapons; and to prove that the continental
troops do not fire as accurately, with the
more effective weapons Of our day, as the

Terrible Fight with a Horse.

From the Eaton Rapids, Mich, journal.
MIR. George Hamiin, Of this place, had u
very narrow escape from death on Sunday
morning last. 1t seems that the large
black stallion owned by Hamlin q Wellman
had become unruly on Saturday afternoon,
but after conhiat with him Mr.. Hamlin
had considered him subdued. On Sunday
morning, however, while he was being fed
and taken care of, he watched an oppor
tunity, and rushed at Mr.. Hamlin, taking
him by the head with his mouth, and intlict.
ing severe bite, tearing the scalp loose
from the skull, and rupturing the temporal
artery which runs over the head. This so
stunned Mr. Hamlin that he began 10 fall when
the horse would no doubt have paved him
70 death; but at this critical moment when
the horse was furious with rage, the hostler
ran into the stall and struck the beast a
heavy blow between the eyes with ham.
mer, not however, before be had again bit
ten Mr.. Hamlin several times on the arm
aud shoulder The blow given the horse
partially stunned him, and enabled Mr.. Ham
lin to get out Of reach MIR. Wenman hear
ing Of the affair, undertook to punish the
horse, when the animal made for him, and
seized him by the waissbaud Of the pants
reared up with him, not letting 90 his hold
until attacked by men with clubs, aud then
completely tearing the pants off Mr.. Well
man. Again in the afternoon Of Sunday
last he got loose and out into the barn.yard,
when it became necessary to actually choke
him down by means of slip moose, before
he would permit any one to get within reach
of him. During the choking process his
frenzy was fearful to witness, as he strug.
gled to get hold of those nearest to him.

some rather surprising things
~, q. G. Walker, Governor-elect of Virginia,
.I,aS at the Executive mansion, yesterday morn
inr, for the purpose Of paying his respects 70 the
President. This was the object Of the Yislt Dut
the President at once entered into conversation
with the Governor, and the result OF the cam
paicn in Virginia was freely and thoroughly can
yassed, Having the assurance that the Presl-
dent was highly grati6ed at the overwhelming
majority In favor Of the Constitution, rs wei ms
the vote cast against the DISTINGUISHING and test
oath clauses, Mr.. Walker said be hoped inc "A
,ni,istratiou would sustain the State Government
eff virginia in perfecting what had been so aus
picionslv begun. In reply, the PRESIDENT express
"a himself without reserve, IN favor OF encourag-
ING. in every way, the ouly policy that could be
of any avail iu the reconstruction Of the south,
WIS an unlimited confidence III those who would
merit IL, az the people of Virginia certainly had.
II was clear to the President that the people Of
the Southern States must stand unequiyOcay on
the platform which the Issues Of the war had
made. Virginia, 1t seemed was ready to do So
and he hoped spirit of Cancellation would spruR
up among her people that would weld as great
an influence 10 re-establishing the prosperity oi
the South as had been msdirectod against II
during the rebellion. He received the promise
that the President would consummate the policy
inaogurated, and to the best Of his ability direct
nil the influence Of the Administration IN behaH
of the best interests of the State
In the course OF the conversation the President
sail he had read Mr.. Walkers speech on the oc
casion Of his serenade in Richmond after the
election, aud he approved the sentiments uttered
on that occasion Governor Walker stated to
the President that DO would be Governor Of Nir-
ginia, aud that he would not permit himself to be
Influenced by the old politicians Of the State. 1t
WAS his purpose to carry out faithfully and fully
the platform upon which he had been elected, and
'r ,ustaiu the Presidents reconstructon policy.
llo spoke freely Of the opposition he had to en-
counter in the recent canvass and also OF those
who supported him, and he wanted 10 set at rest
all reports that he was to be influenced by the
ex-rebcl element. Abiding to the nomination
of General Rosecrans In Ohio by the Democratic
party ne said he was not conscious OF having
Sweryed one iota from the views entertained
during the war, when he was known in Chicago
as War Democrat. He then stood on the same
platform with General Rosecrans, who, he regret.

The Great VitaIiZer.

This title may be fairly given to restorative
which has taken precedence over all other tonic
and Alternative preparationsfor a period OF nearly
twenty wears. During that long interval hos-
TE.rTER,s STOMACH BITTERS may be truly
said to have enjoyed unrivalled popularity
MANY preparations have been got up to compete
with IL. but they have all fallen into its wake
or SINK into oblivion for lack of patronage.
From the first, this now world-renowned Vege-
table Tonic has been both incidentally and fnan-
cially successful. Every year has added to the
number of its friends, and the demand for it,
based solely upon the experimental proofs OF It's
excellence as a preventive aud curative;
seems to have ne assignable limit. The medical
profession sanction and approve its use, ana IL
is now at the head of the class of medicines to
which il belongs, the admitted, undisputed
SOVEREIGN Tonic OF THE AGE. The statistics
of the United States Revenue Department will
verify the statement that ii stands alone and
unapproached in the magnitude of its sales as
compared with those of any other proprietary
remedy advertised on this side of the Atlantic
THE EXPLANATION of this fact may be COM
prised in few words. HOSTETTER'S STOM.
ACH BITTERS is at once the purest, the safest
and the most potent of all vegetable tonics and
the pest antidote to every variety Of malarious
disease. Hence it is especially adapted to the
present season of chilling dews and uawhole-
