SPECIAL NOTICES.

The Household Tonie.-The efficacy of Hos
letters celebrated Stomach Bitters as a specific
for recruiting the enfeebled body and cheer
ing the desponding mind has passed into a
proverb. In the United States, where this
marvellous tonic has borne down all opposi-
ton and eelipsed all rivalry. the demand for
it has annually increased in heavier and
heavier ratio for years. until at last the regu-
lar sales of this preparation exceed those of
all other stomachics combined. Eminent
members Of the medical profession, and hos
pital surgeons without number, have candidly
admitted that the pharmacop@ia of the faculty
contains no prescription that produces such
beneficial effects in dyspepsia, general debility
and nervous diseases, as Hostetter's Bitters.
To use the language Of a venerable physician
Of New York, 1.-The Bitters are the purest
stimulant and the safest tonic we have"
But the uses of the great vegetable antidote
are much more comprehensive than such
praise would imply. As preparatory anti.
dote to epidemic disease, a genial stimulant,
a promoter of constitutional vigor, an appe-
tizer, a stomachic. and remedy for nervous
debility. no medicinal preparation has ever
attained the reputation Of Hostetter's Bitters.
1t is the household tonic of the American
people, and in all human probability viii be
so for centuries to come. The magnates of
science recognize its merits; and that it is
emphatically the medicine Of the masses, is
proved by its vast and ever increasing sales.

How's THAT FoB HIGH?"--Brick Pom
eroy. in his Democrat, thus explains the pa
ternity of the abo-e popular interrogation
In answer to a correspondent, Pomeroy says:
Henry Ward Beecher is the author of the
sentence. which has become so popular. At
the time of the Cleveland Convention, in 1864
when John Cochran was by certain disaffected
Republicans nominated for the Presidency,
Henry Ward Beecher, the author of the phrase
Its most id hot" was at the Spaulding
House, Binghampton, New York. While
there waiting for the train 10 bear him west,
he became acquainted with few gentlemen,
among them conductor Of the Erie railroad,
named Z. y. Graves, who was strong Re-
publican, great admirer of Mr.. ReecheT aud
IA member of the same church
To while away the time before the train
which was to bear them westward, should ar
rive, it was deemed best TO seek IA little quiet
amusement in a private parlor by indulging
in the popular game of seven up" or "old
sledge."
To this game Mr.. Beecher made no objec-
ton, stating that he played all such games as
checkers, backgammon, chess, eucher, whist,
etc, at home with his family, and that he
considered il no harm to seek such amuseme mt
when travelling, or even to carry with him a
pack OF cards or box Of chessmen, as he gen.
ernlly did.
NIhNCs anu DttCueI were partners, the
party playing for the lemonade. On four
handed game Graves and Beecher were stuck,
and sawed" to see who should pay for the
lemonade. They played a single game to de-
eide the matter. At last it stood, Beecher six
and Graves five, with his deal, BY accident
or design Graves turned the jack of hearts,
which made him six. 1t was then question
who had the highest card to go out. Beecher
looked at his hand, found nothing in there to
note, and lie laid down the deuce ON the table,
with the remark;
81 give you your jack; that puts us six
apiece. Here the deuce; how's that for
high?"
The remark was so original, and the joke so
good, that everybody laughed and Graves or
dered i'll the beverages. The story was told
first To one conductor and then another along
the road, and at last ran over the country, till
now nearly every one uses that as a slang
phrase, which has become as popular as You
bet" or "Shoo fly"

New YORK, December 2l.-The day
has ended as quietly as it began. No
arrests were made, and according to the
authorities no warrants issued.
The appearance of w. II. Peekham
in the Mayors office this afternoon
gave rise to a rumor that the committee
OF Seventy had submitted proposals OF
some kind to Mayor Hall, but it was
afterwards discovered that it was in con.
nection with the Fourth Avenue rail-
road question.
Tweed was at his Office as usual, and
the Department OF Public Works pre-
sented its usual appearance.
The Grand Jury meet again to-mor-
row, and it is expected something de-
finite will be known about the doings
of Mayor Hall in his vetoed resolution
for improving the condition OF Fourth
avenue, in respect to the use OF steam
by the Harlen railroad company, which
had been adopted by the Board Of
Aldermen and Board OF Assistant
Aldermen Of New York.

WITH the approach of Christmas
come thoughts of those who are desti-
tute and fatherless and motherless, and
when we know Of opportunities to re-
lieve and make such happy, surely our
own homes and dear ones will enjoy
this season, so rich with JOY, all the
more for supplying the wants Of the
needy. From our advertising columns
it will be seen that the managers
of the Childrens Home propose to
gladden. the hearts OF the little inmates
by giving them Christmas dinner and
Christmas tree, and they ask our citi-
zeus to contribute articles for either or
both of these objects. Let there be
no lack. II out OF the abundance Of
many a little be given, children who
have never before knewn "a merry
Christmas" will enjoy one this season.

Disturbances In Spanish Ministry
MADRID, December 2l.-Serious dis
turbances have already arisen among
the members of the new Spanish Min
istIy, which was officially announced
to-day. Admiral Topete refuses to &C,
cept the portfolio of Minister Of Colo
nies, which was rendered him by Don
Sagosta, and it is believed that such q
wide diversity of opinion in various
questions OF national policy exists
among other members OF the Cabinet,
that it will be exceedingly difficult to
secure harmony OF action. 1t is the
intention Of Don Sasosta TO shortly pro-
pose a dissolution ofthe Spanish Cortes
when the first elections will be held
throughout the country.
Minister Catacazy.
ST. PErrRsBURG, December 2l.-The
St. Petersburg Messenger, in its issue Of

says the difficulty caused by Minister
Catacazy between Russia and the
United States being Of purely a per-
sonal character, have been Immediately
removed by his recall.

sentations from the various German

the French Government to intiict pun
ishment on the offenders, the Govern.
ment has resolved upon adopting retail
atory measures. With that view Prince
Bismarck has forwarded a dispatch TO
