as-THREE REQUISITES OF HEALTH.

If all the sickly people In the world were to take
to their beds, and demand medical treatment,
there would not be doctors enough to attend
them, nor sufficient number OF the robust TO
nurse them. Three conditions are absolutely es-
sentlal to health, viz: good appetite, easy dges-
tlon. and the ability to sleep soundly. Seven
eighths OF the many thousands who sufferfrom in-
disposition. yet do not labor under serious dis
ease, complain that they "can't eat,h that their
stomachs are "out Of orller," or that they "don't
sleep WE'LL" For this class OF ailments few per-
sons think Of calling in physician. Nor Is 1t ne
cessary, inasmuch Us course OF HOSTETTER'S
BITTERS will certainly relieve the arrangements
OF the stomach, the liver, and the nervous system,
from which want OF appetite, indigestion and
sleeplessness arise This excellent vegetable tonic
and corrective Is also delightful anodyne. In-
somnia Tor ncapaclty to sleep,) which has resist
ed all the ordinary remedies, will yield readily TO
u dose OF this pleasant sedative taken just
before retiring to rest In ordinary medical
practice 1t IS usual 10 give stomucic, un ape-
rlent, IN invlgorant . soporiac, or an antscptic,
as the case for the time being may seem more
particularly to requires but In this grand restora-
tive all these medicinal properties, and many
others, are blended In due proportion. Thus the
digestion is stimulated while the bowels are regu-
lated, the liver toned the strength recruited, the
nerves Gained, the llulds purified, and the crcu-
lation eaualized. 1t Is believed that there Is no
other restorative and regulating medicine In the
world which acts so benefcially aud agreeably
upon all the assimilating and secretive organs at
tile same time; and to all who lack the three fun
damcntal requisites Of health and enjoyment,
vigorous appetite, sound digestion and refresh

WHAT rs THE LEGAL DEBT OF
CHARLESTON
MEETING OF TAXPAYERS LAST NIGHT.
THE SALE OF THE CITY PROPERTY.
CITY ATTORNEY coRB1N APPLIES FOR AN
INJUNCTION.

The proceedings of the executors of Gibbon
to enforce the payment of judgments obtained
against the city for overdue city stock, and the
notice by the sheriff of the sale, on Monday
next, of the Artesian Well and White Point Car
den, have naturally excited the uneasiness and
alarm of the holders of real estate, and OF the
taxpayers in general. Witha debt Of over five
million dollars staring the city in the face, and
falling due in large amounts every year; with
q burdensome taxation which depresses the
value of all property, it was felt necessary
that so me steps should be taken to ascertain
the real osition of the city in relation to Its
debt, and to do what might seem best for the
protection of the tax-payiug public. This feel
ing assumed shape on Thursday last, when
private meeting was held, which resulted in
the iss uing Of the following circular:
Dear Sir-The undersigned desire you to
meet tn EN- on the Sd instant, at o'clock, at
the Market Hall, to consider the city debt. We
are impressed with the conviction that IN It's
present form and under present circumstances
it is pregnant of disastrous consequences to
the city, and We desire to consult with you as

The Sale of White Point Garden and the

terry or White Point Garden, the Artesan Well,
and the premises at the northeast corner Of
King and Calhoun streets
THE SHERIFF ENJoINED.
As soon as 1t was known that the sheriff had
evied upon the Battery, and there was apros
pect of its being sold, oil of our citizens, who
are justly proud of this place of resort, were
indignant and loudly expressed their dissatis-
faction. Some of the property owners in that
section, it is said, conferred together to ascer-
tain if there was any way to stay the sheriff.
Whether this be true or not, certain it is that
they have taken no public steps to that end.
However, prospect ofrellef came from anoth-
er quarter. About half-past o'clock yester-
dav afternoon. Sheriff Mackey received the
following notice:
