Help for the Miserable.

No wonder that the face of the dyspeptic has
iful to see. No wonder that the miserable martyr
to indigestion is fretful, irritable, and unsocis
Whoever can bear the psngs of this tormenting
complaint cheerfully, and with unruffled tenn
per, is little short of a saint But why should hui
man fortitude continue to be thus severely tried,
when absolute specific for the disease is always
at hand. Everywhere within the limits of civili-
cation in this hemisphere Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters is obtainable, and the history of the first
case of dyspepsia in which it has been admins
tered in vain, has yet to be written The sickness
of the stomach, the sense of weakness and stupor,
the feeling of emptiness and hollowness before
eating, and of oppression afterwards, the futter
ing Of the pulse, the intense nervous irritation,
the morbid indispesition to exertion, the wear-
ness of fe and the Indifference to all its pleas
ures, which are among the symptoms of the dis
ease in its chronic form are rapidly ameliorated
by the tonic operation of this palatabe vegetable
restorative, which seems to renovate and quicken
all the dormant forces of the system, and rouse
the mind from the apathy and gloom inseparable
from arrangement Of the digestive and secretive
functions. IL ordinary cases a few weeks suffices
to complete the cure, but when the disease is COM
plicated, as it often is, with torpity OF the liver,
severe constipation, impurity-of the blood, and a
sluggish circulation, longer time may be re-
CURED. Persevere, however, and the result is GER
tain. An encouraging improvement will be per-
ceptlbie from day to day, and the convalescent,
knowing and feeling that he or she is on the high
road to health viii await the happy issue with COM

THE SUPREME BENCH.

The GAINESVILLE Tobacco Leaf favors
a convention to be held in Nashville, for
Middle Tennessee alone, on the 18th of
MAY, to nominate candidates for the So
prcme Bench. The Tobacco Leaf asks
that the Middle Tennessee press give their
views on this subject.
Oar opinion is that under the surround
ing circumstances it would be best to
postpone the determination of this ques-
ton few weeks longer Should a con-
yen,ion become necessary it may be held
as late as the 1st of July, and then give
ample time tohave its action disseminated
and discussed previous to the election in
August.

FIFTY SPOKEN.

H. n. Rankin, the President of the
West Tennessee (colored) University,
thinks chat but few white teachers should
be encouraged to come South to teach
among the colored people" He very ap-
propriately adds:
It is clear to my mind that many of the
organizations of the North, said to be
for the benefit of the negro South, are, in
my opinion, humbugs and impositions on
the colored people of the South. That
some of these enterprises benefit tie negro
no one will doubt But, in my opinion,
some of the leaders of said Northern
associations are benefited more. The
few weeks ! spent North it surprised me
to find that at almost every place l visited,
except the Western Reserve, was organ
lied begging association for the poor
negroes of the South. What the poor
negro of the South most needs is to be let
alone by some of his so-called friends.
1t is gratifying to learn that there is one
man at the head of an institution for the
education of the colored population who
has the boldness to tell the people of the
North that "what the poor negro of the
South most needs is to be let alone by
his SO called friends" 1t is a matter of
regret that the politicians of the
Butler school will not receive and
be controlled by the advice here
given. They must know that repose
from political agitation is to the interest
of the black man as well as to the white.
If let alone by the so-called friends "of
the poor negro" their mutual interest
will at once require that they shall
afford each other protection and assis-
lance. The misfortune is that the pro-
fessional politicians of the Radical party
have their own interests at heart far more
,ban the welfare of the ''poor negro. T"
The latter is but the ladder upon which
the former climb into power.

RECONSTRUCTION

The Louisville Commercial Radical,
says:
Reconstruction must have an end one
of these days, and the sooner it is ended
the better. Why not end it nowl We
shall do most to remove all cause for such
legislation by Withdrawing our minds to
other subjects, and in all conscience there
are enough that require study and discus
sion. Let us try what virtue there is in
a regime of non-interference.
1t is matter of very great Importance,
not only to the people of the South, but
to the people of the entire Union that the
Radical leaders in Congress will not &C
knowledge the wisdom of this advice.
If the reconstructionists will let us alone
we can very materially contribute to our
own prosperity, and also to that of the
North. The tariff, the currency, the
taxes demand the study and discussion OF
those who are responsible for the legisla-
ton and administration of the Govern
ment. The men who propose to perpetu-
ate the Radical party upon a policy of
prescription and intolerance need to reflect
upon the folly of the owner of the goose
that laid the golden egg.

nobly manifested their determination to
virdicate the right of the State to make

power is made up as between Congress
and the people, the masses will vindicatee
their own right to rule. j"

TIE Richmond Enquirer complains of
the high salaries paid to railroad managers
in that State by roads which pay no divi-
dends to their stockholders. 1t says Col
Buford ON one line receives eight or ten
thousand dollars per annum, and Gen.
Malone on another receives eighteen OF
twenty thausand dollars of annual salary.
That does look a little steep for compa-
MES who pay nobody but their officers.

IT is again announced from Washington
that Grant has no intention at present of
issuing a general amnesty proclamation.
He is reported to have entertained the
idea some time ago, but he is so piled
with stories of outrages at the South, said
to be committed by x-Confederates, that
he has concluded that it is too soon for a
general amnesty. 1t thus appears that
Grant has been considering the subject of
issuing a general amnesty proclamation,
Just what President johnson did, but the
Radical Congress refuses to recognize the
validity of that proclamation.
