As you have communicated to the
medical profession the recipe of the
''Home Bitters," it cannot, therefore.
be considered as patent medicine, no
patent having been taken for it. We
have examined the formula for making
the Home Bitters," and unhesitating-
iy sayfthe combinationis, one of rare ex-
Icelence, all the articlesused in its com
position are the best of the class to which
they belong, being highly tonic, Stimu-
liant, Stomachic, Carninative and slight
ly laxative. The mode ofpfeparing them
lis strictly in accordance with the rules
Iof pharmacy. Having used them, seen
its effects in ON. private practice, we
take pleasure in recommending them to
all persons DESTROYS of taking Bitters,
las being the best Tonic and Stimulant
now offered to the public.

For the Advertiser.
Our Terrible Fires.

1t is painful to see SO little attention
given to these solemn warnings of the
approach of "the evil day"
But this is not the worst feature of
it, as there is a manifest design on the
part of many to turn it all aside as a
mere accident. But the time for "the
evil day" is at hand; and though men
and the ministers are 'saying peace
and safety" spirit of INSTRUMENTATION
and unbounded lawlessness is being
manifest in all departments. These are
growing evils, far beyond the growth
OF our population, which even, is unex-
ampled in the history of civilization. In
short, the world is not being converted,
but is becoming worse, as in the days
of the cities of the plain. Let US be-
ware!
But it might be asked, wherein is all
this lawlessness manifested? a case or
two need only be cited to those who
want to know: The city council of St.
Louis in voting away $4,000 Of the
peoples money to a pleasure party to
Baltimore; and the latter's action in
appropriating $4,000 Of the peoples
money for their enterta inment. May
not city councils have the same right to
vote away the peoples money on Sun
day school excursions? Your attention
need not be particularly directed to the
west, or south, nor even to New York.
Let us look, for example, at our own
doors, in relation to the one article Of
Intoxicating and pernicious liquors
how is it? Are all law abiding here,
in a matter, too, calculated for the good
