Faith Well Founded.

In old times at the commencement OF every season
II was the fashion to take strong catharc as ga fe
guard against change of temperature 1t was worse
than senseless practice. The people ID our day
understand the matter better Instead of depicting
the system they reinforce it. In the method they
adopt they exhibit wise discrimination. Instead o
resoring to the vitiated stimulans of commerce. or
any of the compounds del.~ed from them, they put
their faith in the only absolutely pure nvgorant pro-
durable in the market-Hostetters Stomach Bitters.
Their faith is well founded. Never has any tonic
medicine been prepared with such scrupulous
precision and conscientious care. 1t is vegetable
compound of which every ingredient is sound, whole
some an medicinal in the true sense of the word.
Now, we have three prominent national complaints.
Onehaf of the adult population of the United States
suffer less, either from diseases of the som-
ach arrangements of the liver, or affections OF the
kidneys. In no other land under Heaven are these
malades SO general in this country, and Hostel
ter's Bitters a specific for them all unless organic
in its origin, and therefore beyond cure. And let
those who are fortunate enough to be exempt from
them at present understand great fact, viz that
an occasional of this vitalizng tonic will as GER
tainly prevent them the will prevent the earth
from freezing where its genial beams descend

CHICAGO, Nov %, Thanksgiving passed
off very quietly. There were'the usual relig-
ious services in the various churches with the
usual meagre attendance, though the DAY was
fine, and the inducements to thanksgiving
abundant. A few military companies paradeo,
but excited little attention save from the Juven-
lies and a few grown-up children. The crop OF
turkeys and other Thanksgiving fowls we're
plenty and the day was faithfully celebrated at
the dinner table. There was very little drink
ing or carousing, and the department of the
city was quiet and orderly.
THE STATE WOMAN SUFFRAGE ASSOCIATION
of Illinois, had meeting at Farwe]l Hall, and
after some discussion resolved to become auXli-
iary to the Northwestern Woman Suffrage AS
sociation, the Boston Association having be-
come a partizan concern, and appeared to re-
main with the National Association, whose heat
quarters are in New York. The division has
grown out of personal and local rivalry. Luc,
Stone will not work with Susan u. Anthony ant
Elizabeth Cady Stanton, and Boston wishes t.
take precedence of New York. These quarrel
are disgraceful to women, and disastrous to tn
cause of woman suffrage.

RICE IN LoUIsIANA.-Three varieties
of rice have long been raised in the
State of Louisiana The common
white creole rice, which is probably the
same kind introduced in 171S by the
Company of the West; the Gold Seed
rice planted in the parish of Plaque
mines for the first time about the year
1867, and the White Bearded rice,
which was brought from South Carolina
in 1866 or 1867. The Gold Seed has
been cultivated in the Palmetto State
since the revolution. Last year, two or
three enterprising planters sent to Hon
duras for another variety of rice, which
promises to be far superior In quality
to the best Carolina. About one hun
bred acres of Egyptian and three hun
dred of Honduras seed are under cult
walton this season. This year a new
variety from Egypt has been intro
duced.

Ancient Idols.

Chester Ill) Correspondence of Boston Advertiser.
One morning last week a young fell
low rode into this town on horseback,
having Just crossed the river from Mis-
souri,. He had, carefully wrapped up
in his handkerchief, a curious relic,
dug up the day previous in Perry coun-
ty, Mo. He stopped on the hill to rest
his horse, and the inquisitive crowd
that gathered around soon drew his
story from him, while the relic passed
from hand to hand. 1t seems that
when, after the rebellion, the farmers in
Southern Missouri once more worked
with security and on an an enlarged
scale, the heavy team that passed over
the road near the line of bluffs, a few
miles from the Mississippi, in Perry
county, Mo-, unearthed some human
bonss and an odd looking bottle of
clay. There is living in Chester an old
gentleman, James M. Christian, famil-
iarly called "Uncle Jimmy" who has
for years devoted all spare hours to the
study of archaeology. His researches
in this neighborhood have enabled him
to present many rare specimens of alb
original and other curiosities to the So

the east. The first relic of value was
that found by the young man above
mentioned. 1t is apparently an idol,
or decanter- shaped, like an idol, repre-
senting the figure of man in sitting
posture, his hands crossed upon his
breast. 1t is made of a dark-colored
clay, very hard, and shows nc
signs of decay. There is hole in
the back of the neck, and the figure ie
hollow It is about one foot high, and
seven or eight inches in diameter The
same evening the rest of the party, ex-
cepting Christian, returned with mum
Der of curiosities, including one lido
of larger proportions than the former
with the hands resting on the knees
They had, besides, bottles, kettles, pots
and saucepan, with handle hollow
ed at the extremity and filled with pei
let's The larger bottles were shaped
! like modern decanters. All were vel
executed in clay, and showed no sign:
of age. Considerable excitement wa
raised in the town on this discoveries.

EVENING

sound, variable in tone at eve,
Swell through the liquid air from fold and field,
And what, a moment gone, could believe
We're children's shouts, to woodland echoes yield.
The suns last rays die on the cleaning pane
A glorious death and all the rosy air
Is deadened to a marble hue again,
With veins and arteries showing blue and bare.
Anon soft shades of twilight steal around,
Usurping all the spheres of lingering day;
And sense of sight and motion of sweet sound
Fail, as the night pursues its wonted way;
While memory, which darkness can ehace,
Slips in between, and thus supplies their place.
