WiIted Down.

Ask the man who complains of "wilting
down" in torrid weather what he has done
to sustain his system under the extra strain
imposed on his vitality. He may tell you
that he has tried variety Of cathartics to
purify his blood and brighten his spirits
Under such treatment, ofcourse, hisstrength
has given way, and his energies have be-
come exhausted. What he requires is a
restorative, and depletant. His blood is
tension, and nature demands to be reno
waited and reinforced The means is within
the reach of all. For nearly a score of
years Hostetter's Stomach Bitters has been
building up broken constitutions, bracing
and strengthening attenuated frames, and
affording comfort, ease, and hope to thou
sands. AS q preventive of the epidemics
which make such havoc with the health of
the inhabitants of new settlements, this
famous tonic is certainly without rival.
Perhaps the principal portion OF its world
wide fame is attributable 10 its astonishing
cures of dyspepsia, and all forms OF indi-
gestion. But these are not moiety Of its
triumphs. All the types OF biliousneSS
yield TO its persistent use. 1t is regulating
medicine Of the highest order; and its et.
feet upon the secretions, when irregular, Is
most salutary.
Imposition OF the grossest character is
sought to be practiced upon the community
by vendors, who recommend under the
name of "bitters," fiery compounds of
dangerous character, which they attempt to
substitute for the great national tonic. Shun
all such nostrums, and see that You have
the genuine Hostetter's Stomach Bttters,
properly authenticated by label, name and
stamp, and sold in bottles only.

Escape OF the sQueer, Man.

The 80 called Henry C. Harris, who,
at our last writing, was under examin-
alton before a justice in Union, for
passing counterfeit money, made his es-
cape from Jail, on Sunday night about
eleven o'clock. The jailor entered his
cell for the purpose of seeing that all
was right when Harris suddenly at
tackled him and knocked him down,
rushing out OF the building before the
jailor was conscious Of the situation.
An alarm was at once given, and
most of the citizens sailed forth from
their beds in pursuit OF the fugitive,
but without avail. Next day he was
reported as seen crossing the Green
brier river at Alderson's Ferry, but it
will be hard to track him. He had
passed, in this county, several $40 notes
on the Merchants National Bank of
the city OF New York, all of which
were pronounced spurious and about
5000 of the same notes were found Sc
GREETED at the Salt Sulphur Springs,
which he owned to having hidden.
The evidence appearing against him,
he thought it best to retire from the
field. He is believed to be the same
man as Warner, who was imprisoned
on a similar charge in Harrisburg on
the 10th inst, but who escaped by for
feiting his bail.-Monroe Register.

DURING the late war" says the New
York Express, General McCook was,
in Radical estimation, "the hravest oil
the brave the fighting McCook, ofthe
fighting McCook family the loyal, pat
riotic, skillful and dashing McCook.
Just now, however, and for the simple
reason that he is the Democratic candi'
date for Governor Of the State Of Ohio,
he is the imbecile McCook,' the weak
McCook,' the whisky-drinking Nc
Cook the drunken McCook. This
is the way they treat brave soldiers when
they will not become corrupt followers
of General Grant.

A Payins Speculation.

A company Of land proprietors, own
ing about two hundred acres OF land
near the city of Louisville, for which
they paid at the rate of $500 per acre,
have managed to put themselves in the
way Of making good deal of money
by entering into a speculation which
needed only tact, enterprise and liber'
atty in expanding money-in adver-
Using and otherwise-to make their
venture a success. They bought the
land on the first of June, and immedi-
ately proceeded to lay it out in squares,
streets, and avenues, well-fenced and
named appropriately-establishing, in
fact, a complete town, minus the
houses, public buildings, &c. Having
progressed thus far they next adver-
tised the sales excessively in the city
and interior papers Of Kentucky and
neighboring States, prepared taking
maps of the site of the proposed new
village, built short railroad to the
line of the property, at an expense OF
SAG, 900, and during the days Of the
sale spread fine lunch, free TO all
corners. The result was that a large
throng, mostly mechanics, attended,
and the enterprise Of the parties was
rewarded by selling one.half Of the
tract for $250,000. The other half, the
most valuable of the property, was re-
served by the owners, who, it is thought
with reason, will realize a large for
tune within less than six months time
from their enterprise.

SEVERE AcCIDENT.-On Saturday
evening, Goth inst, Jefferson Falk, a
workman on the Baltimore and Ohio
railroad, was struck by an engine and
knocked off the track, short distance
below this place. causing serious injury.
Trains were passing one another at the
time. He received severe cut on his
forehead which penetrated to the bone
and was two or three inches in length,
and his left arm hurt. He was brought
to this place afterwards upon the Way
train, where he had his wounds dressed.
He was able TO sit up while having his
wounds dressed, and it is not thought
they are dangerous.-Nc~ Creek 1ri-

From the Washington Patriot.
Radical Love for the Soldier.

A great fuss has been recently made,
over the appointment of an "exrebel'
to clerkship in the Post Office, though
the noisy blusterers took very good
care not to say a word about Attorney
General Alderman or General Long
street, and other cases which stand
upon the same footing, and, being more
CONSPICUOUS, should certainly have
claimed the first attention of these pre-
tended friends of the soldier. But here
is q nut for them to crack. and prac-
teal illustration to test their sympathy,
if it be honest.
George Daylight, a discharged soldier,
served in the United States Army and
Pennsylvania volunteers. He was
wounded eight times, one being bay
onet wound, disabled for life, and pen.
stoned. His commanders, Sigel, and
Hunter, endorsed him as a good and
gallant soldier Besides, he was a Re-
publican, and in April last voted for
Chapman.
This poor man held a petty office, by
which, with his pension, he was enabled
to exc out q bare subsistence. But he
was dismissed from it without cause,
and substituted by an able-bodied negro,
who came here during the war to be
fed. Daylight may be seen at Mr..
Kelley's, on Pennsylvania avenue, near
Seventeenth street. This is the way
genuine soldiers are treated, but since
there is "nigger in the fence" there
will be no Radical froth or splutter
over the despised white man.

FORTY COUNTIES HEARD FROM

The election news continues to grow
better. All uncertainty as to the result
has been completely dissipated, and the
only question now is, What is the ma
iority for the Convention Since yes
terday morning we have heaed from
five counties not previously reported
Monroe, Mercer, Logan, Mcdowell and
Wyoming. A press dispatch from
White Sulphur Springs, dated the 9th,
says that the majority for the Conven-
ton in Monroe county is Al. This we
presume is correct, though a dispatch
from Charleston received last evening
says that Monroe is reported there at
$50. Mercer gives about 500. Logan
isreported as having given 500 for the
Convention, and Mcdowell and Wyo-
ming are said to have gwen 23O.
We now have returns and reported
results from forty counties showing an
aggregate majority for the Convention
of 1858. The remaining fourteen coun'
ties are likely from present indications
and partial returns, to increase rather
than diminish these figures. The Elec
ton Commissioners in the several
counties were required by the terms oil
the law to meet yesterday and make up
their official report. Wemay therefore
expect to receive in a few days returns
of the exact vote cast and the majority
given. There being no room for any
doubt whatever that the Convention is
called, we can we'll afford to wait lit,
tie longer for the details.

Editors of the Register:
Jefferson gives 100 majority for the
Conventions less majority than she
ought to have given-but still she has
done we'll compared with the counties
on the Ohio.
Morgan, a county heretofore giving
a Radical majority Of two or three hun
dred, now gives, it is believed, a major
lty for the Convention. The Court
House and three precincts have been
heard from, having a majority for the
Convention, so far, of 81. Three pre-
cincts are yet to be heard from, which
will reduce, and possibly destroy that
majority. Yet, the information is that
Morgan has voted for Convention by
small majority.
The vote in Berkeley is the largest
ever cast by that county, and the Con
vention has a majority ofprecisely $50.
This is official. twas grand fight in
Berkeley for party supremacy. The
entire negro vote was polled against the
Convention. The Democrats were de-
serted in their struggle by every leading
Lst.up Republican, except one, and yet
they have achieved triumph in the
late election that forever hereafter
makes Berkeley fixed star in the
Democratic armament. This is the first
time since the war that that county has
placed herself under the Democratic
banner. The Radical majority there
has reached as high as 500.
Our information from Hardy is that
it has gone for a Convention 10y from
three to four hundred majority.
No information has reached US from
Hampshire The majority there will
be from three to six hundred for the
Convention, as the voters may be reused
to 60 the polls.
We have been much disappointed
by the news from the Western Pan
handle.
You have well said that the Eastern
Panhandle presents blaze Of glory.

The Nation insists that Grant shall
remove the Federal officials at New
Orleans who managed the late Repub.
lican State Convention on the Gatling
gun and bayonet principle. Of course
he will not do anything Of the kind, for
the conspiracy was Matched in his
cottage by the sea- at Long Branch.
The Nation puts the case in this way:
Suppose Warmoth and his Repub-
licans in New Orleans had been men of
nerve enough to attempt the enforce
ment OF their right to seats in the
State Convention, and the State Cover
nor had been shot down BY United
States troops surrounding the Conven-
ton, not in obedience to a requisition
of the Governor, but of the United
States Marshal, who wishes to be NOM
mated as Governor, and at the instance
of the United States Collector, who
wishes to be q Senator; could the Pres
ident in that case, have withstood the
demand for the punishment Of those of.
