The state Road Corruption.

y. p. Hotchkiss of this place and late Audi
tor of the State Road was arrested on Monday
night last on the charge of fraud and embezzle-
ment and the case is now undergoing judicial
investigation in Atlanta The testimony by
some Of the parties who We're interested in the
fraud, is damaging.
We all know that unexampled rascaity char
acterized the administration Of the Road nnder
Bodgett and we all hope that the guilty
who ever they be, will be exposed to the scorn
and contempt of this and future times This
will come about all in good time.

Both result from the lack of ability 10 convert
the food into nutriment. How necessary, then,
for those suffering from these alarming symp-
toms to Immediately resort to a remedy that will
strengthen the stomach and digestive organs
For. as soon as this desirable object has been
accomplished, the health improves, and the pa
tient resumes his usual personal appearance
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters have attained Il
worldwide popularity in such cases, and have
been proven the best and safest means of remov-
ing constipation, toning the stomach, giving en-
ergy TO the liver, and relieving every symptom
of nervousness and depression of spirits. Its
cheering and beneficial affects are highly spoken
of by thousands, who owe TO it their restoration
of health. No restorative in the annals of med
icine has attained the same popularity in the
short space of time it has been before the public,
or has won the high endorsements accorded to
this excellent tonic. Many other preparations
purportng TO be correctives and restOratives,
have been Introduced, and have persisted one by
one, while the popularity of HOstetter's Stomach
Bitters continues to increase and is now recog-
nized as a standard household medicine. The
success which attends the use Ofthe Bitters evin-
ces at once lis virtues in all cases Ofdebility and

without number have been published, attestinS
its truly miraculous power in removing those
painful and fearful diseases. And at this time

THE BIBLE SOCIETY.


The Marietta Bible Society held
its 25th Anniversary on last Sab
bath afternoon, at the Presbyterian
Church. The proceedings were
highly entertaining. They consisted
of songs, prayers, reports and an adj
dress in behalf of the Bible cause.
The music was such as it should
be, and the prayers were appropriate
and well delivered.
The report submitted by DR.. Root,
showed the condition of its finances !;
that read by Rev. ID. l.. Buttolph,
was compendious and interesting
history of the Society, from its estab-
Iishment in $40, to the present time.
And. to the older denizens of Mari
eta especially, it presented some
pleasant "reminiscences as well as
matter for sad reflections.
During three years of the war, the
records are silent as 10 anything
done by the Society. The report
also shows that several of the leading
spirits whs were active in its estab-
lishment and organization, and who
were afterwards its officers and zeal
Gus patrons, have gone to that mys-
ferrous
Bourne, whence no traveller returns.
The Rev. Isaac w. Waddell, who
for years, oficiated as the Pastor of
the Presbyterian Church, was its
first Vice-President.
The Rev. Thos. F. Scott, who, at
the time, was Rector of St. James
and afterwards Bishop of Oregon,
was its first Secretary. The memory
of both these, is affectionately cheer
ishcd by many surviving friends,
who still reside here.
The record further shows that DR..
VIM. Root, then and now, the indie
fatigable promoter of benevolent pro-
jects, was present, and aided in its
establishment. He also was one of
its original officers-and, through
the Whole of the quarter century Of
It's existence, has administered its
finances faithfully having procured
and distributed over two thousand
dollars worth of Bibles TO those who
were destitute.
Finally. the address in behalf of
the Bible cause, delivered by Judge
Van Wyck, was net the least attrac-
tive part of the evenings entertain
mcnt. / confess myself a little hard
10 please in this particular; but great
merit must be accorded to the Judges
address. Aside from the facts which
he presented, and arguments which
he so forcibly and logically brought
to bear in support of the cause,
the speech abounded in graceful and
classical illustrations; was finely con-
eeived and most appropriately en-
bellished.
It IS gratifying 10. know that the
Society still has prosperous exls-
tenee-that it is atill augmenting its
