Shocks to the System.

The first shock of winter tells tremen-
dously upon enfeebled systems. Every one
knows that in passing rom a warm region
TO cold one, or rice rciSd, the body requires
as protection against cpidcmicS, an accli-
mating medicine. All travellers and voy-
ayers admit this. II is equally necessary to
acclmate the system in passing the con-
fines of one season and entering upon
another. Autumn is gone and winter is
here. Prepare the frame and the conStitu-
ton to meet the change by course of Hos
letters Stomach Bitters. This inestimable
vegetable tonic increases the staminal
strength of those who take it, and renders
them proof to a great extent against the
devitalizing power ofcold and damp. These
two agents are as prolific of disease as tror-
ical heat and animal vigor-such vlgOr as
this healthful and pure tonic dltfuseS
through the whole organization-iS n repel-
liant which they cannot master. \ large
proportion of the colds, catmrhS, and pull
monary complaints which prevail in win
ter, might be avoided, by strengthening
and regulating the system in advance with
this invigorant and Alternative. Not that il
is recommended as specific for those COM
plants, but as preventive Of their causes.
On the other hand, ii is not only a prevent
i've of, but 4 specific for the indigestion, in
testinal irregularities, malarious tevers, bill
ious att ackS, and nervous affection, super
induced by a chilly and damp atmosphere.

Editors Of the Register.
From communications and editorials
in your city papers. there seems to be
conflicting interests among your own
citizens in regard to just where said
N. w. road shall terminate. and the
route, from present appearances, looks
very much as if there was feeling
Of jealousy and rivalry among your
own citizens in this matter, that tends
to discourage the friends of the enter
prise. From resolutions passed at the
meeting at the Grant House, l notice
that three of the committees for the new
organization, are the same gentlemen
whosigned the certificate ofincorporation
oftbe wheeling and Toledo Railroad
Company" Will you please explain :?
We thought that this route was fully
explained by reports of surveys, made
over one year ago. An editorial ap-
pears in the htelHgenctr which seems
to charge the friends of this route with
5elittling The Wheeling creek route. The
surveys made by the same men, in the
same way, costing, l suppose the same,
(ten dollars per day. in proportion to
the amount done. II, because we did
not 90 to the extra expense Of getting
our report printed in pamphlet form, is
the reason why we are accused of mis-
representing, then we would say, our
reports are in the hands Of the President
of the company, Joel Wood, of Martins
Ferry, and will be shown to any one
who wishes to fully understand the
railroad dilemma alluded to by the
editors Of the MtelHgencer.

OF abolishing the army and navy OF

By the new Apportionment bill now
before the House, the whole number o.
Federal Representatives is increased
from two hundred and forty-three 10
two hundred and eighty-one. Two
States only, New Hampshire and Yer
mont, lose by the new apportionmeDt,
one member each. New York, Massa'
chusetts, Maryland, Virginia, North
and South Carolina, Mississippi, Ala
bama, Kentucky, Tennessee, Indiana,
Arkansas, California ard Minnesota,
each gain one; Pennsylvania, New
Jersey, Georgia, Texas, Wisconsin and
Kansas, each gain two; Missouri, Mich
igan and Iowa, each gain three, while
Illinois gains five. The loss of New
Hampshire and Vermont is noticeable
in connection with the fact that Maine
Connecticut and Rhode Island barely
hold their own, and Massachusetts
makes a gain on the increased repre-
sentation of only one. 1t shows that
New England is steadily retrosradins in
point OF male population. The increase
of five in Illinois, places that State
equal in rank to Ohio, which makes
no increase at all. The gains in the
Southern States are accountable FOR by
the additional representation allowed
the negro votes, since the old appor-
tionment ten years ago. When these
States are governed by the ballots OF
their people, not the bayone;s OF a
President anxious for a re election, they
will show as heavy an increase OF pop
ula,ion as other portions o! the Union

woMANLY MoDESTY.

Man loves the mysterious. A
cloudless sky, full-blown rose,
leave him unmoved, but the violet
which hides the blushing beauties
behind the bush, and the moon
when she energies from beneath a
cloud, are to him sources of inspira-
ton and pleasure. Modesty is to
merit what shade is to figures in
paintings-it gives its boldness and
prominence. Nothing adds more to
female beauty than modesty; it
sheds around the countenance halo
of light, which is borrowed from vir-
tue. Botanists have given to the
rosy hue the name of "maiden's
blush" This pure and delicate hue
is the only paint Christian virgin
must u.s. 1T is the richest orna-
ment. A woman without modesty
is like faded flower, diffusing an
unwholesome odor, which the pru-
dent gardner will throw from him.
Her destiny is melancholy, for it ter
inmates in shame and repentance
Beauty passes like the flowers of the
albo, which blooms and dies in few
hours but modesty gives the fe,
male character charms which sup
ply the place of the transitory fresh
ness of youth.

sition of self-support, SO necessary
to the independence of a nation;
while its incidental benefits will be
no less important to the well-being
of the State. The diversity of agri-
cultural products afording rotation
in crops, will diminish the exhaus-
ton of its soil, and stimulate greater
and energy and enterprise in its
farming population, and render coun-
try homes more interesting and at
tracing. Factories and workshops
will cultivate skill, intelligence, and
enterprise; provide home markets
for the products Of the farmers, and
give value to the many idle water
powers of the State and no less SO
to its Iron and Coal deposits, Then
in addition to its independence, if
coin and money be considered
wealth the State will possess wealth
without stint.

A CORPSE DRIVING A HORSE
THROUGH NASHVILLE.
ORION THE BANNER, 9TH.

FROM THE BANNER, 9TH.
DIR. VIM. Burdett, who resided at
No. SO South Cherry street, died at
6 o'clock last evening under the
most peculiar circumstances. About
half an hour previous to his demise
he had driven to the residence Of
conductor Edward Wells, near the
Decatur depot, who lay very i'll of
inhamatory rheumatism. After leav-
ing some instructions with his pa.
tient he got into the buggy and
started his horse homeward.
Sudden death, like a stroke Of
lightning, overlook him probably
before he had driven more than a
few hundred yards, and the late liv-
ing, speaking human being, who a
few moments before had talked
calmly and quietly, after his usual
manner, to a patient and that pa
TENTS family, and even joked with
little boy whom he met by the street
side as he entered his buggy, still
sat stark and still upright upon his
seat, the reins clutched in his hands,
staring eyes looking out upon the
street, driving homeward--a corpse.
Father of us all, what was it that
those who met that horse and vehi-
Gle saw in the face Of the driverthat
made them shudder and hurry on a
little faster ? Death looked out
from those lifeless eyes, and it was
he who guided the unknowing horse
plodding on toward his late masters
door, and those who looked into tha-
vehicle felt something awful and int
defnablc which made them shudder,
perhaps, and hasten Involuntary
forward. The horse drew up at the
familiar hitching post, but no mas
ter descended, and he stood gently
paving the ground, anon jerking the
lines, but he got no answer to these
signals, however oft repeated. No
familiar voice which had so often
chidcd or cheored him in long jaunts
Then he pricked back his ears and
ierked the reins little harder, and
listened, but there was no response,
save the grating of the leather over
the dash board. What could it all
mean? And now Mrs. Burdett
looked out of the window and says,
"Why, declare, the Doctors come,
but why don't he get out" She
looked moment, he doesn't move,
and she says perhaps he wants
something, and then she trips up to
the street, looks up into the buggy
and says, "Well, William, what is
itT No answer. And then she
bends forward a little, and the light
shines fuller on the figure there. 1t
is her husband, but the face is livid
and the eyes blindly staring. evil
liam oh, William !" and grasps
him by the hands, still clutchins the
reins. They arc cold and stiff. He
is dead.
Through the assistance OF several
gentlemen, DIR. Burdctt's body was
taken into the house, where coroner
Brien held an inquest over his re-
mains. The jury returned a yer
dict that he came to his death from
! disease of the heart.
