THE new transit Of Venus across the
suns disc, will take place, on December
8ih. 1874; the last was on juno 3, 1869.
In the century which has since elapsed
the methods and Instruments of oberva,
ton have been so greatly improved that
modern astronomy nay be regarded as
now about to have its first opportunity Of
studying one Of the most significant nd
fruitful events that ever rccur, in the
heavens. The vexed question Of the dis
tance Of the sun. from the earth will, it is
hoped, be settled more accurately than
ever before by tho next transit. The
English government will spend moro than
fifty thousand dollars in, expeditions to
favorable points in tho southern hemls-
pherc for observing this transit. -

BE ON Your Guard.

The unexampled success which for twenty years
has accompanied the of Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters provokes the envy OF ignorant nostrum mon
gers In all parts Of the country, and the counterfeit
ing business having been measuraby played out in
consequence of the numerous suits instituted
against the offenders a new system OF tactics has
been adopted In the South aud West especially, a
legion OF "Bitters," prepared from worthless ma
terials and bearing a variety of names, have been
got up by irresponsible adventures with the hope of
substituting them to some extent tor the standard
Tonic OF the Age. In some cases country druggists
are the concoeters and propretors of these unscen
tifc and tlashy compounds, which are warmly re-
than off upon the credulous in lieu of the great
specific which has never yet had successful COM
dettor either among proprietary preparations or the
medicines prescribed in private practice This no.
tice is intended to put the public on their guard
against persuasons of parties engaged in the at
fcient stomachic and alternative at present known.
At this season of the year when debility and COM
plants arising from lack of vital energy so gen.
orally prevail it is of the greatest consequence that
no tricks should be played with depressed and en-
feebled systems ASK, therefore, for Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters the great vegetable invgorant and
alternative, and reject with deserved contempt, the
worse than useless medeys offered in its place. 1t
Is as important to the public the proprietors of
the famous restorative, that this advice should be
needed.

PORTLAND THEATRE.-Notwithstan that
during the first act of the play last evening
our attention was occasionally distracted by
crying children, boys running up stairs into
the galleries, and the rehearsal of the band on
the other side Of Market Square-notwith-
standing these slight drawbacks we tried to iix
our attention on the sensational play of East
Lynne, which has been acted to death, and that
we succeeded in doing so was owing to the
good acting of Miss Western, Mr.. Hearne and
the company. We haven't space to do justice
to Miss Western ia a critical article this morn
ing. There are scenes where she is intensely
powerful, and other scenes where we were dis
appointed. Not because they were not we'll
acted but because Miss Westerns conception
Of the situation was not ours. Mr.. Hearne
was very polished scoundrel az Sir Charles
Levson, and we think we shall like him very
much. The audience was large and fashion
able one, and the music particularly good. We
trust that if during the remaining two nights
the performances are as good as on last even
ing that our citizens will see to it that the COM
pany is we'll supported. The temperature Of
the hall was very comfortable.
