Dcfrnsive Medication.

Investigation is as necessary for the protection Of
the human body against disease when unhealthy
influences arc abroad, as iron armor and granite
easements for The protection Of ships and for
tres;es whom ss1ailed by shot and she'll Hence, it
il desirable when those Potent enemies OF vitality,
damp and cold, peryade the air we breathe, to put
the system in the best possible condit, to encoun
ter them. The stomach is the organ by which every
other organ is nourished and sustained and there
fore upon its vigorous and regular action depends
in great measure, the capacity Of the system to
resist the assaults the invisible enemies Of health
aud life by which st this Indictment season, it is
surrounded Hostetter's Stomach Btters, an sd-
mTable tonic ana regulating medicine for all sea-
sons, is never more needed than in winter when tue
torpaying influence ola chilly atmosphere effects
all the vital functions, AID renders the body ex-
t!emsiy susceptible. By toning the digestive or
gans. and the liee-, and the bowels with this une-
quallod vegetable specific, physical condition is
att2ined which seems to b. proof against all varie
ties Of temperature and that is inimica in the air
ofwintcr. Defensive medication is n precaution
which should never be neglected when danger is
present, and therefore course CT the Bitters at
this season is particularly desirable, especially for
the feeble and sickly. As remedy for biliousness
dyspepsia, nervOusGe +. and bowel complaints
there is nothing comparable to this wholesome res
toTative. JAM deod&Eit

To the Editor Of the Free Press
Mn. EDITon :-Yog were pleared few weeks
ago to copy from the Mi5dlebury Register the
substance Of an article Of mine entitled - Capt.
tai Punisbment-A Query" in which asked
az item CT information of those who would have
imprisonment at hard labor for life the penalty
for the crime Of murder; the point upon which
wished them to inform me being simply shat
could then te done tcith the murderer IN GER
tain case which l supposed. In your columns
last week is sort Of response TO that article Of
mine, signed - N. Richardson - which demands
d word or two of notice
have not tie pleasure of personal acquain-
lance with Nj T., and strangers should be
;rested respectfully Of his article have just
two things to say. The first Is. what every one
who has read i secs. that he does not attempt a
reply to the question I wished answered, but,
after come remsIzs, which will notice present
", proceeds to give his views IN the general
Question Of capital punishment. The other
thing to be noticed Of his article is the matter Of
discussing this general question. He says. we
think the question should lie discussed in the
pape-s" To this, Of course, there should be 10
objection, provided it be done IL proper spirit
and manner. Bat, judging from his writing,
aIr. r Is not the man thus to discuss it. What
candid man would consent to discuss so imror-
Jsut "a question with one who at the outset would
call IL question the intelligence and humanity Of
ano ppoaeutwhoml lie does not know, and ofall 9TH
ors Who hold Ike opinions In this respect Mr.
Richardson's lsuguage is significant Speaking
o. NY former article, he says 50 The writer says,
4 wan, e li.tle information NoR We think he
needs good deal Of information, and all others
oA, think and see as Ae does Thus IIr. R.
makes the wholesale charge Of gross ignorance
against al Who d;dsr from him on this question.
Again he gratuitoo5ly chsracterilss ell such as
. loving vengeance sud insisting on the pound

that among these aye some who may possibly be
as learned sul good as be-.
