Faith Well Founded.

In old times, at the commencement OF
every season, II was the fashion TO take a
strong cathartic as a safeguard against a
than senseleSs practice. The people OF our
day understand the matter better. Instead
of depicting the system they reinforce 1t.
In the method they adopt they exhibit a
wise discrimination. Instead Of resorting
to the Initiated stimulants Of commerce, or
any Of the compounds derived from them,
they put their faith in the only absolutely
pure invigorant procurable In the market
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. Their faith Is
well founded. Never has any tonic medi-
cine been prepared with such scrupulous
precision and conscientious care. 1t II. a

Hostetter's Ritters is specific for them all,
unless organic in their origin, and, there
fore, beyond cure. And let those who are
fortunate enough to be exempt from them
at the present understand one great fact,
viz: that an occasional use of this vitaliZing
tonic will as certainly prevent them as the
sun will prevent the earth from freezing

Diseases of the Lungs.

1t Is more particularly at this season OF
the year that we suffer most danger Of con-
tracing diseases Of the lungs, and once
contracted there is but one method Of rid
ding the system, and that is by systematic
course of treatment, such as is employed by
DR.. Keyser, of No. l67 Liberty street. There
is no knowing whether the hacking
cough Is merely severe cold, or an actual
lung disease, which, unless stopped, may
ultimately prove fatal. DIR. KEYsER's LUNG
CURE is a remedy which has been more
successful than any other, and, indeed, we
know OF no other that proposes to do and
does what DR.. Keyser's remedy performs.
DR.. Keyser claims that consumption Is not
the necessarily fatal disease 1t is popularity
supposed to be, and II the cure be taken in
time, the ailment Is quite manageable and
capable of decided cure. AS DR.. Keyser
says, he has had patients brought to his
office whom even he deemed entirely be-
yond cure, and yet, after judicious course
of treatment they have recovered and re-
gained their former health. DR.. Keyser has
given the best years of his life to the study
Of the lungs and Of consumption, which
makes such terrible ravages After this
protracted course of study, 1t would be
strange II he was not competent to search
for evidences Of disease and treat It success

cases in which this physician has combated
consumption and restored health and vigor

General Amnesty.

1t appears that GRANT is now un-
equivocally opposed to general amnesty
for political offenses, and will recon-
mend or consent to nothing looking to
that end. Some of the shrewder poll
ticians of the Radical party have at
last got their eyes open to the fact that
the people of the south cannot
be forced to vote the Radical
ticket, and are now prepared to ad-
vocate a policy ofconciliation. But not
so GRANT his bulldog tenacity and
stubbornness can recognize only the
persuasive force of bayonets and the
harmonizing influence of eternal hate.
And GRANT as a President, is even
more vindictive than GRANT as Gen
eral Of the army. The terms Of sur
render accorded by him TO LEES army
at Appomattox, were thought at the
time, to be liberal, and honorable to
victor and vanquished alike. But he
has, as President, wiped out whatever
of honor he won by his sword, and,
making himself the centre and chief
of clique OF corrupt and designing
men, makes war upon the liberal and
manly sentiment Of his own party.
1t is, however TO be observed with
regret as one of the signs OF the demon
alization of the times, that the Radical
politicians who favor amnesty and con-
Citation, do so simply because they
think it expedient for their party. They
place party above country, above JUS
tice, above right. They give paramount
fealty to their party, and would scott at
the idea of doing right for its own

Grant AND, Johnson.

The baseness OF Admiral Porter made
Grant assert. that he had forever lost
his faitH 10 human nature. We are
free to confess il was sufficient to shock
any ordinary man, but the President
should not be so sensitive on this score.
To have his confidence abused, to find
an enemy concealed beyond the smiling
front Of a friend, to reap deceit where
he had planted only favors, was GER
tainly not more CALLING to him than to
his predecessor in the presidential Office.
Porter's treatment of Grant is not hall
so despicable, not half SO cowardly, as
Grants treatment of Andrew johnson.
Under the guise OF friendship he stole
into Johnson's privacy, and pisssdthe
part of spy upon the latter's actions,
carrying his secrets to his enemies, not
even contenting himself with relating
only the truth.-Paper.

Italian W. Common Bees.

The merit of the Italian bees as con-
trasted with that Of the ordinary bees
of the country, is still a matter of dis
cusSion among apiarians, though, with
out doubt, among the most intelligent,
the Italians are considered the superior.
the last report OF the Missouri Board
of Agriculture, Mr.. A. E. Trabue gives
the following strong experience in their
favor.
find, as rule, that Italians store
from so to 100 per cent. more honey
than the common bee.
There is a family of farmers in the up
per end of this county, who are natural
born bee-keepers, and have always
had bees and honey while their
neighbors have been running ont Of
both.
Some seasons ago l furnished one of
them an Italian swarm for an expert
ment, rather against his wishes, for
he is much opposed to innovation.
He had some stands of common bees.
He noticed that the Italians worked
earlier and later, aud stored more honey
and increased 100 per cent. The blacks
did not increase so much. Next season
he had thus two Italian and twenty
stands ofcommon bees. The difference
this time was more marked the two
Italians increased to thirteen, and
the twenty blacks to only twenty-three
stands.
The blacks Of his brothers increased
only ten per cent. while the Italians in
creased 800 per cent. The difference
in the honey gathering capacity of the
two races is not so marked, though
greatly in favor Of the Italians, because
of their greater energy and longer pro-
bosics, enabling them to reach the
nectars of many flowers that are mac
cessible to the common bee.
