THE BR1pE.-she quits her home, her pa
rents. her companions, her occupation, her
amusementr everything on which: she has
hitherto depended for comfort; for affection:
tor Kindness, for pleasure. The parents by
whose voice she has been guided, the sister to
whom she dared impart embryo thong hit and
feeling, the brother who has Rlayed with, her
by turns, the counsellor and the eounseEed, and
the younger children to whom she has hitherto
been the mother and the playmate-all to be
forsaken at one fell stroke; every former tie is
loosened, the spring of every hope aud action is
to be changed, and yet she flies with JOY into the
untrodden path before her Buoyed up by the
confidence Of requited love, she bids fond
and grateful adieu to the life that is passed,
and turns with excited hopes and joyous antlcl-
pations of the happiness to come. Then woe
to the man who can blight such fair hopes, who
can break the illusions that have won her, and
destroy the confidence which love had inspired

A QUEER CAsE-Some queer disclosures in
case involving considerable amount OF mon
ey, were made yesterday on the rendering of
the verdict. The amount involved was over
forty thousand dollars, and the verdict was
rendered for the plaintiff. On the jury being
polled, at the request of the defendants coun-
sci, one of them declared that it was not his
verdict, but that the foreman had induced him
to sign the verdict by threats Some state
ments were made in regard to the course pur-,
sued by him in dissenting from the decision of
the other jurors.
The Judge imposed fine on him, and defer
red the question of further punishment to tu-
ture day.-N T. Nears.

SPECIAL NOTICES.

Try lit is amusing that the feeble should
totter with UNCERTAIN steps, over the face Of the
earth, in danger every day Of falling victims to
the morbid influences by which We are all sur
rounded, when tested and proven vegetable
tonic, capable of endowing them with the vigor
they need, is procurable in every city town and
settlement. It might reasonably be thought that
after the twelve years experience which the
world has had Of HostetterS Bitters, all would
know that its effect is to prevent disease.
Atcertan seasons the atmosphere is surchargcd
with the seeds Of intermittentS rheumatism, pull
monary disorders, bilious complaints and the
like. Persons whose nervous systems are relax
ed are the first TO succumb to these distemperS.
Brace up the physical energies then with this
potential vegetable tonic 1t is the most power
iu recupersnt which the botanic kingdom has
ever yielded to patient research and experiment.
Try it. The blindest discipline Of the old medi-
cal doginaS will at least admit tina: tonic and
Alternative, compounded of approved herbs, roots
and barks can do no harm, while the testimony
uf thousands invites trial of its virtues.
Nigor is the thing most needed in these cases
as we'll as in dyspepsia and nervous affections
and Hostetters Bitter$ is the safest. Surrst and
most wholesome strengthening preparation that
human skill has Yet concucted.
Hundreds Of physicians have abandoned al
the otcinal receipts and prescribed this harmless
TONIC as e preventive and cure for all cases Of
chillS and fever. APP 2i-colw

The European War.
mt kEMIsfIcE

The war news Of the past week has con-
sisted largely Of speculaiiOns about the
result Of the armisiioe. Bitter complaints
are made Of the severity Of Bismarek's
terms Of peace. The French arc generally
indignant at the proposed dismembOrmeni
of their eouairy, and many declare for
continuing the war rather than TO submit
to such humiliating terms.
The elections took place in Paris on
Sunday, and in the departments to-day
and speculstious arc rife As to what the
National Assembly will decide, and what
effect il will have on the people of France.
The idea that the restoration Of the En-
pire and the return Of the NapOleons to
power will result has strong adherents.-
On the other hand, the Provisional Gov
ernment has the advantage OF possession,
and it is difficult to see what the late dyn-
asty has 10 commend it to the French peo-
pie. We believe that fair expression Of
the sentiments Of the French nation will
be in favor Of peace on any endurable
terms, but the question of the government
to be settled upon is entirely problemat-
ieal as yet.
