THE GREAT
SPRING AND SUMNER TONIC.

Medical treatment has been revolution
lied, and at last the discovery has been
made that RENOVATION, NOT PROS
TRATI0N, Is THE TRUE MEDICAL
PHILOSOPHY. The introduction Of
PLANTATION BITTERS, pre-
pared with pure St. Croi1 Rum and
Calisaya Bark, opened the eyes Of the
world to this great fact. The ife-sus-
tanning principle embodied in this great
Vegetable Restorative is manifested In
the weak and responding by an immedi
ate and most encouraging change II
the appetite has failed, 1t is quickened
if digestion has been painful and imper-
feet, it becomes easy and thorough; II
the liver is torpid, it is reused and regu-
lated; If the nerves are relaxed, they are
strengthened and FestrIng; II the brain
has been haunted by morbid fancies, they
are put to fight and hope and cheerful
ness return. In the face of the extranr
binary cures of general debility, dyspep-
sia, biliousness, constipation and mental
dependency, wrought by Plantation
Bitters, no practitioner not In league with
death and the undertaken could persist In
it. The terrible evacuenta which were
once prescribed as the Spring and sum-
mer medicines, have utterly lost their
prestige. The sick willnos take them,
and Plantation Bitters, In which are COM
bined the elements o! stomAchic, an
invigorant mild laxative, nervins and

A NOVEL, by the Right Honorable BENJAMIN
DIsRAELI, NJ, P, Late Prime Minister Of Great
Britain.
''Tne announcement Of Lothair,' new novel
by Benjamin Disraeli, has caused quite sensation
in England, where novelists seldom become Prime
Ministers. For twenty-three years the author OF
Vivian Grey has abandoned the fowery neids OF
romance for the dusty paths of politics. His last
novel, 'Tancred,' was issued in 1S47 and his long
silence as well his political eminence, gives an
unusual zest to the anticipation of Lothairp The
Saturday ReUie1g says all England Will be excited
over it in May and another English journal states

The wisdom and prudence shown BY
Mr.. Fish in the State Department may
be seen when we survey the present
condition OF our foreign relations.
The principal duty Of Mr.. Fish, as
Secretary Of State, was to keep the
peace ana assist in paving the debt.
This was not a brilliant, but an eX-
ceelingly useful function.
America at peace is the arbiter Of
Europe at war, and this is the glory of
splendid fact that will grow brighter
every day. We have the opportunity
to redeem and regain much of what We
lost in our civil war. The commerce
of Europe will seek our flag. Had
Congress seconded the demand Of the
President. that fag would have covered
more fleets than ever sailed beneath it.
The uncertainty of a peace at any time
that will be truly peace the growing
dissatisfaction with the European sys-
TENS of standing armies and mon
archies, and the power of one ruler to
throw million men into a peaceful
nation within a week /; the great change
that must follow this war, whatever its
result may be-all of this will compel
the prudent men of Europe to seek In
America that security for property that
cannot he found at home. The conf
dence that Mr.. Fish has inspired is
stable and unbroken. People of other
lands begin to trust America. They
see President whose life shows him
brave enough To make war, now show
ing the highest quality OF a ruler By
| being brave enough to keep the peace.
In this he has been warmly seconded
bv his Secretary of State. For this
the country-the sober, thinking tax
paving country-wili honor him.
We might have a more gaudy Secre-
tary than Mr.. Fish; we might have
one more directly connected with the
machinery of the party; we might have
a minister more deeply in 1.-The conf
dence" of such eager Republicans as
those who met on Thursday evening te

We might have a State Department
