Bear i'm Mind.

When disease has undermined the health
and the physical system has become pros.
trated, stimulant that will not only
strengthen, but remove the cause, should be
Immediately resorted to. Mental distress
is also a fruitful source of the breaking
down of the constitution, and the ravages
of this enemy to health are truly alarming.
For all such maladieS HOStetter's Stomach
BtteTs have been found unsurpassed. BY
acting directly upon the digestive organs,
they remove the heavy, dsagreeable feeling
after eating, so often complained of by per-
SONS of delicate temperament. As soon
Us digestion is restored, the patient finds his
strength increasing, and his general health
improved.
Thousands OF persons certify that IL may
be relied OH in all cases of weakness or ner-
vOus debility attendant upon sedentary
habits. The generality of Bitters are so dis
agreeable TO the taste that they are objec-
tionable 10 a weak stomach. This is not the
case with HOstetter's BitterS, which will be
found mild and extremely pleasant. Bal
Samic plants barks and roots contribute
their restorative juices TO render II soothing
and strengthening. Its basis Is the only
pure Stimulant which has ever been pro-
duced, containing no htSH oil, or any other
dcleteriOuS element. The most careful and
Skilful chemists have Analysed the Bitters,
and pronounce them harmless. This is
scientific testimony; but the testimony of
the hundreds of thousands who have eXpe-
ricnced the preventive and curative effects
of the GREAT VEG ETA BILE TONIC and ALTER
ATIvE of modern times is still more conclu-
sive. In Fever and Ague, Dyspepsia, Bill
iOuSneSS, Nervous Complaints, Chronic
Complaints and general debility, ii Is as
nearly infalible as anything in this fallible
world can be.

The Rights Of White Men.

We once more ask the LHtelligenctr
TO answer the plain question, Shall all
the white men who are legally qualified
voters under the Constitution of West
Virginia be permitted to vote at the en-
suing State election? 1t has been try
ing to avoid answer 10y asking Of us a
discussion of the constitutionality OF the
enforcement act in so far as it relates TO
the protection Of the right of white
citizens as well As black, but it studi
ousIy tries to cvale the only real qucs.

From all parts Of the State comes the
intelligence that white men possessing
all the qualifications of voters prescribed
in the constitution of the State are he
ing summoned for Acknowledgement by
the Boards of Registration Now these
men have legal remedy or they have

rights of citizens OF the United States

1t j. matter Of no concern to us
whether the enforcement act lie Il law in
pursuance OF the Constitution of the
United State, or not. 1t has been
passed by a Radical Congress and az
proved by q Radical President, and is
being enforced 10y Radical officials.
The act docs, by its plain and reason
able terms, protect the right of all .
legally qualified citizens to vote, and,
constitutional or not, the white
men OF West Virginia intend to avail
themselves OF the protection ii affords.

The serenity of our Quincy street
friend sometimes slips up on him" and
he is betrayed into saying spiteful, cross
and naughty things. The publication
10y Us of any little extract from his edi-
torial articles of one year ago when he
was working with us in the cause Of pol
itical liberty in West Virginia, provokes
him to anger, and the publication OF Mr.,
GEEELEY'S letter in the "first-clpss no,
tice' of that gentleman lecture which
we made last Friday morning, has had
upon our neighbor an effect similar to
that produced by Haunting a red flag in
the face Of a mad bull He gets cross
and cranky and spiteful and, unlike the
"journeyman" of whom he speaks,
demonstrates that he does not lack such
u comprehension of his own mental
sensations as not to know when lie is
hurt"
But besides being spitef1l, he becomes
more than usually untruthful. 1t may
surprise some who have been in the
habit Of relying upon the statements of
the Latel'igsnccr (if there be any such)
TO know that the assertion it made last
Saturday concerning Democratic oppo-
sition to the FLICK amendment in the
Legislature last winter, was not only
untrue but actually the reverse Of the
truth. The hatelEgeneer says and ex-
poets its readers to believe that It's

voted for il the Senate! OF the cish-

ment in the House fourteen were cast by
Radicals aud, of the four against it in
the Senate, three were given by Radical
Senators. Now these are facts which
we cannot ignore, and which the hstcli-
geaccr will not again deny.
The attempt which the Mtelli5ncer
makes to show that that journal has
been and is the especial champion and
friend of the acknowledgements of the
rebels in West Virginia, and that the

sort and has its feelings hurt by find
