disappointed ambition. He probably
measured his abilities by q higher stand

offer no justification for his coarse and
vulgar attack on his unfortunate chief.

.AlXoioe from. AFRICA.

80 MoNRovIA, L1B,2RIA, January 3, 1862
.4ibave lived now in this, homo of the
African nearly twenty years, but I have
not forgotten the scenes ips old Virginia,
.norcthe kindness of many, white, friends
in former days. I wish 1t was in my
power to return for a time, that my
VOICE might benheard by. my colored
brehhrentnf the Southern States. .,r,,u..
:. am anxious for their fate. As I sit
here, on the shores Of this continent
filled with white men, cannot but be
fearful in regard to the future Of the few
millions OF people of my own blood in
the South, now left to their own re-
ing over those fields which have hereto
fore fed them; tide coming from the
over6owing populations of the Northern
States of Europe. remember CIV that
tide, when slow and feeble, swe. off the
native Indians; and now, as it rushes in
its might, what is to shield the trans
planted African from its waves ? I can
think of but one hope for him.
Ii, as body. the colored people of the
South shall identify themselves with the
white people who now occupy and hold
the soil, gain their affection and conf
dence, and become useful members of
their communities, they may float above
the torrent and still dwell in peace
among the associations of the past; other
wise they must, in the lapse of wears.
8 be buried beneath it, or like drift-wood,
into tho burning zone around the Equa-
tor
And yet the occasional letters and pa
Pers we receive here from the United
States tell us that political demagogues
from the, North, peddling politics for
their own profit, are exciting our race to
hostility towards the whites. If they
shall become the dupes of such emissa-
ries, their fate is sealed. The scattered
white men OIL this continent of Africa
might as we'll array themselves against
the native tribes of black men, with the
expectation of meeting anything but de-
strnction in the pursuit of such folly. I
feel some confidence that the more intel
lgent portion of the people of color will
not be led astray by adventurers, who
will use them while they reap any per-
sonal profit from pretended friendship,
and desert them when they please. Bit
the mass have not had time to learn les
sons of political wisdom, and the pros
pect fills me with sadness. If could
but make them hear me, I would appeal
to them to make common cause with the
white people Of their own land; to take
advice and counsel from such men as
have been known to them through their
Lives for their high character and honesty
and Intelligence; to seek tue welfare Of
the people on whom they must depend
through oil time for their own prosperi-
ty; to do no act which shall give to the
white population just cause for epmity
and thus identifying themselves with the
communities in which they dwell, obtain
Tor themselves the most powerful of allies
IN the struggle against those forces which
threaten their very existence. Say this
much to them for me. s.. w. w.

HOW HosrETTER's BYTTERs CURE
DYsPFHs4ATTHEs WHOLE STORY IN A
NUT-sHELL.SThc ofice Of the; stomach is to
convert ths food into cream like -semi, ,fiIiia,
called chyme. This is effected partly by the
action Of a solvent, called the gastric jnicc.
which exudes from the coating of the stomach,
and partly 10y a mechanical movements thu at
organ, which churnss as it were tho Gssolting
alIment. The chymo passes from theHfoTna eli
into the duodenum, or entrance to Eie b0wels,
where it is subjected to the action of tfias bile,
and the nutritious portion Of it converted into
fluid called chyle, which eventually becomes
blood.
Now, it is eviGent that if the great solvent,
tho gastric juice, is not produced in stuff Client
quantity, or if tho mechanical action Of the sto-
mach is not sufficiently brisk, the first process
OF digestion will bo but imperfectly performed
1t is also clear that if the liver, which plays
such an important part in changing the nou-
rlshing portion OF the chymo into the material
OF the blood. is congested, or in any nnatural

failures is dyspepsia, complicated with bilious
The mode. in which HOsTETTER's- BIT
TERS operate in such cases is this: They in
vigorate tho cellular membrane of the sto-
mach, which evolves the gastric Juice, thereby
insuring an ample suficiency OF the fluid to
completely dissolve the food. They also act
upon tho nerves of the stomach, causing an
acceleration OF the mechanical movement ne
cessary to rednce the food to homogeneous
mass. They alao act specifically upon tho
liver, strengthening it, and 30 enabling it to
produce all ample and regular supply Of bile,
for the purpose of converting the nutritious
particles of the chyme into chyle. and promote
the passage through the bowels of the useless
