Omit DrugSing.

This is now admitted by the medical pro-
fession as fundamental principle of heal
ing science. 1t is wisely provided by the
human economy that whenever anything
is wrong in the physical system the natural
forces of the body are brought to bear to
eXpel the disease. The great aim, therefore,
is TO strengthen the natural powers. This
has been kept in view by the skillful COM
Founders Of Hostetter's Stomach Btters,
which operates to give fresh vitality to all
the organs of the body. The effect of this
medicine upon the stomach, the liver and
the kidneys, is prompt and decisive. The
patient, who is wise enough to quit drugging
and try the bitters, soon feels as If he had
taken new lease OF life, and as he con-
tinues the use of the article, he Is Overjoyed
to find the streams of health cOursing
through his frame. 1t Is prepared with
great care, and its component parts are en-
tirely vegetable. 1t Is free from the objec-
lions so often urged against preparations OF
the kind. As n medicinal agent 1t has no
equal, while its pleasing flavor and health
full effects have made it general favorite.
1t is free from all properties calculated to
impair the system, and its operations are at
once mild, soothing and efficient. All who
have used HoStetter's Stomach Bitters attest
its virtues and commend II.
Even those who are in the enjoyment OF
perfect health frequently have need to have
recourse to tonics as preventives OF disease.
We are never too well armed against the
assaults OF "the ills that flesh is heir to. +"
In health or sickness this tonic caunot be
taken regularly without giving vitality and
elasticity 10 the system.

The suggestion Of the Weston Dem
orrqt that convention lie held Tor the
purpose OF pertectiug an organization IN
favor of the proposed Constitutional
Convention seems TO be meeting with
favor in many quarters of the State.
We have several letters from promi-
nent gentlemen in different localities
commencing the proposition, and We
presume the matter will be carefully
considered by the Central ComHlttee'
Meantime, let us hear from the Demo
cratic press OF the State as to the Propr'-
etv of the measure, and collect II pos
sible, the sentiment OF the friends OF
Constitutional reform concerning the
plan of action to be pursued. An &C
tive and vigorous canvass should nm
doubtedly be made, Int whether that
can be best had with or without pre-
liminary convention is the question to
be determined.

The Chicago Times occasionally IN
dulge. in little professional pleasantly
like this: "Mr. Horace White is the
responsible editor ofthe Chicago Til
buae. The editor Of the Times has
hitherto been led to believe Mr.. Horace
White to be a more decent person than
he is esteemed to be by the generality
of people, aud has treated him as such
in journalistic and personal relations.
The editor of the Times is impelled to
acknowledge his error, and is also i'm
PEELED to denounce Mr.. Horace White
as lying scoundrel and cowardly, dirty
dog. The editor of the Times applies
this language personally to Mr.. Horace
White, and posts it upon his infamous
forehead with the adhesiveness OF a
sticking plaster"

THE New York Standard calls atten-
tion TO the wonderful manner in which
Senator Bcnton's predictions of the
Growth of the West aud its develop
ment have already been fulfilled, in the
following paragraph: "One OF the far
seeing men of the last generation was
Col. Thomas IL. Benton, Of Missouri.
More than twenty-five years ago he
said: The man is now living and full
grown, listening to my words without
Relieving them, who will see the day
when the commerce OF the Indies Will
cross the North Pacific, will enter the
waters of the Columbia and climb the
slope OF the Rocky Mountains, and pour
down over our widely extended Union.
The Missouri Senator if now alive would
zee his prophecy, which, when uttered,
was considered rhetorical flourish,
more than fulfilled He would at ST.
Louis hear the shrek Of locomotive
conveying passengers and trelshts from
the Golden Gate Of the Pacific to the
harbors of the Atlantic. He would
have seen over the plains OF Texas and

Northwest bands OF railway constructors

tai traffic at the rate of mile per day,
so that within five years we will have
three currents tor the enrlching stream
which he saw would flow from the
commerce of the western shores OF
Europe. American enterprise moves
faster than ever his sanguine expecta-

.,er,s,a,ure Ordered to Reconvene.

Governor Palmer, OF Illinois, has
issued a proclamation converting the
General Assembly Of that State in extra
session on the 9th inst. The Legisla-
ture but lately adjourned, and neglected
the public business so sadly as to re-
auire that it should reassemble, though
at great expense to the State, to DO up
business it should have perfected be,
fore adiourning. 1t had even neglected
to make provision for the payment OF
the ordinary and contingent expenses oil
the State Government. Some thirteen
subjects are embraced in the call, which
the Legislature will be invited to act
upon. As Radical body, the Leglsla-
ture which the Governor orders to reas-
semble and do the necessary Legislation
for the State was the most worthless OF
the kind ever convened. Such seems
to be the general testimony OF the
press of Illinois.
