A Chapter Of Facts.

Space Is valuable in newspaper, and II
Is therefore proposed in this advertisement
TO condense a variety of facts, important to
the public, into a small compass. Those
facts refer to Hostetter's Stomach BitterS-
what that celebrated medicine is, and what
II will do. In the first place, then, the arti-
Gle is a stimulant, tonic and Alternative, con-
sisting OF q combination of an absolutely
pure spirituous agent with the most valua-
BILE medicinal vegetable substances that
Botanic research has placed at the disposal
of the chemist and physician. These in
gradients are compounded with great care,
and in such proportions as TO produce a
preparation which invigorates without ex-
citing the general system, and tones, regu-
lates and controls the stomach, the bowels,
the liver and the minor secretive organs.
What this great restorative will do must
be gathered from what 1t has done. The
case of dyspepsia. or any other form of in
digestion, in which II has been persistently
administered without effecting a radical
cure Is yet to be heard from, and the same
may he said Of bilious disorders, inrarrnit-
tent fever nervous affections, general de-
bility, constipation, sick headache, mental
dependency, and the peculiar complaints
and disabilities to which the feeble are.so
subject II purifies all the fluids of the
body, including the blood, and he gentle
stimulus which 1t imparts to the nervous
system is not succeeded by the slightest re-
action. This is chapter OF facts which
readers, for their own sakes, should mark
and remember.

That "TWO.Edged sword. -

The hatelEgenccr and other organs OF
the negro party in this State have been
limiting for some time past that suits
are to be brought, under the provisions
of the enforcement act, against Demo
cratic journals and individuals for the
alleged intimidation Of registrars and
the attempt to register persons not prop
srly qualified.
In the first place, it is not true that
Democrats have in any case sought TO
deter or intimidate registrars in the
performance of their duty. We have
insisted upon their obeying the law and
have attempted to hold them RESPONSE
BILE for its violation. And in this de-
termination the Democracy will persist,
and will use every lawful means to pun
ish the registrars who have willfully
refused registration to white men who
are entitled to vote.
Bnt, under the enforcement act, as
interpreted by Judge BOND, We are at a
loss to preceiye what shadow Of COM
plant can be made against the Demo
cracy. We have not interfered with
any registrar ION account of race, color
or previous condition of servitude." We
have not asked that registration he
either granted or refused on that ground.
IT, as BOND asserts aud the Radicals
agree, the act is for the protection of
those who might else be DISTINGUISHED
because of race, color, &c, what ofiense
against the law have the Democrats
committed? No objection has been
raised to the registration OF the dark
skinned Radical pets; no registrar
has been intimidated in the discharge
of his duty towards them. II the law
is solely for their benefit, and white
men have no rights under it, then even
the pretense that Democrats have Of
Tended against its provisions and made
themselves liable to the penalties it in.

A New MArrKR.-our citizens were
agitated considerably some two or three
years ago about themurder OF a man
named Gallup, from Kanawha county,
whose BODY was found in a culvert I'M
der the railroad near Kanawha station.
Sundry parties were suspected, but prin-
cipally Mr.. Shipley, who then kept
tavern there, and Mr.. John Creel. The
latter was tried and acquitted; the
former, we think, never was tried.
A few DAYS ago a negro who went by
the name Of Poindexter here, while in
Chicago is said to have said publicly
that Creel and Shipley committed the
murder and paid him for hiding the
BODY. The chief OF police, in Chicago,
Capt. Miller, brought Poindexter here
on Saturday last and he was lodged in
iail. He now states that having been
in the Creel family some time he had
the trial Of Creel on his mind and dur.
ing a recent drunken fit, with delirium
tremens, he might have said that certain
parties were guilty, but that he really
knows nothing about it.
G.. w Taggart, Esq, was called on
and issued a warrant returnable within
ten DAYS from Monday morning last.
This is to enable the witnesses of his
story at Chicago to get here. 1t is very
probable that this will put the State
and people to large charges without any
results; but We do not know what may
come OF it. sr

Tne suit. Against Registrars.

"Suits having been instituted in West
Virginia against certain registrars for an
infrac tion of the Fifteenth Amendment,
the United States District Attorney has
dismissed all proceedings, where the Of
Tense charged is not in violation Of The
rights of negroes Thus the registrars
may trample upon the rights Of white
men with impunity, but they must not
touch those Of the negroes This is po-
litical equality from radical stand
point"
The above extract from the Phlla-
delphia Age is. in the MAN, correct
II is mistaken, however, in asserting
that suits had been brought against
registrars nfor an infractioL Of the
Fifteenth Amendment" The suits
against registrars here have been for
their infraction Of the "Act enforcing
the right Of citizens of the United
States to vote in the several States OF
this Union, and for other purposes.
These suits have been brought by whitt
men; citizens Of this State and Of the
United States; men who did not par.
ticipate in rebellion and are not guilty
of any crime; men who possess all the
qualifications Of voters under the con-
stitution of West Virginia; men who
are DISTINGUISHED BY the arbitrary act
Of the registrars whom Governor STE,
vENsox has appointed.
1t was claimed, and we believe cor
rectly, that the act OF Congress entorc'
ing the right Of citizens to vote, would
operate to compel registrars to record the
names of white men, as well as oil
negroes, who were possessed OF the ne
cessarv qualifications, and, upon the
refusal of the registrars to obey the act
suits have been instituted. Judge
, JACKSON, of the United States District
Court, interprets the act as shleldihe
the rights of white men and negroes
alike. Judge BOND, of the United
States Circuit Court, holds that the act
applies to negroes alone and that white
men have no rights under it. Mr.,
| AKERMAN, the Attorney General, directs
the District Attorneys to dismiss all
prosecutions brought under the th'ro
section of the act except where the com
plainants are negroes, while all the
prosecutions which have thus far beer
brought against registrars are founded
upon the second section and not upon
the third. This is a plain and correct
statement OF the case which our tricnd'
in other States have not clearly under
stood.

Let Them Face the Music.

The Radicals are welcome to all the
satisfaction they can derive from the de-
cision of Judge BoSp and the telegram
OF Attorney General AKERMAX. These
men have forced the Radical party in
West Virginia to a complete endorse
ment of the doctrine that white men
have no rights under the law, and that
negroes alone are the objects of legal
protection. In other words, the negro
is the civil and political superior of the
white man in West Virginia. The De
mocracy of the State have charged that
their opponents were fast tending in this
direction and assuming this position, but
the Radical journals have had too much
fear Of the indignation Of our white
people to openly ayow and acknowledge
the truth.
Now, however, there is no longer any
room for escape; no subterfuge into
which the Radical party can even thrust
its head and imagine itself safe. lthas
invoked the aid of high officials to de-
clare that the negrois to be protected
in his right to vote, while the white
man, possessing all the legal qualifica-
tons of his sable brother, save that he
is sprung from another race, may be dis
franchised at will by any scoundrelly
registrar whom STEVENSON may select
10 do the dirty work. This is the exact
position of the Radical party in West
Virginia to-day. Now let them face
the music.
