Unanswerable Arguments.

Established facts are silent arguments
which neither pen nor tongue can shake,
and II is upon established facts that the
reputation of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters,
as health preserving elixir, and whole
some and powerful remedy, is based. When
witnesses come forward in crowds, year
after year, and reiterate the same state
ments in relation to the beneficial effects OF
a medicine upon themselves, disbelief In It's
efficacy is literally impossible. The creden-
tials of this unequalled tonic and Alternative,
extending over a period of nearly twenty
years, include individuals Of every class,
and residents Of every cline, and refer to
the most prevalent among the complaints
which affi let and haraSs the human family.
Either q multitude of people, strangers TO
each other, have been annually seized with
an insane and motiveless desire to deceive
the public, or Hostetters Bitters, for no less
than fifth of a century, have been afford
ing such relief to sufferers from Indigestion,
fever and ague, biliousneSs, general debility,
aud nervous disorders, as no other prepare
ton has ever impaired. To-day, tClile the
eyes Of the reader are upon these Tines, tens of
thousands of persons of both sexes are rely
ing upon the Bitters as a sure defence
against the ailments which the present
season engenders, and their confidence is
not misplaced. The local potions which
interested dealers sometimes endeavor to
foist upon the sick in its stead, are every
where meeting the fate that is due to fraud
and impoSture, while the demand for the
great vegetable specific is constantly in

they afford the young State plenty OF
room for growth. but they won't fit us
until we have grown, Meanwhile we
have to 60 shutting about, awkwardly
enough, in this uncouth dress for fear 1t
may cost something to get q new and
properly fitting suit.
We believe that thorough revision
of the Constitution of West Virginia
is needed for the present and for the
next thirty years at least The patch
work that would result from amend
ment by joint resolution Of the Legis-
lature would be too complicated to he
clearly ineligible.
We have no fault to find with the
trainers of the present Constitution,
They were able and conscientious men
and did the best they could. But they
were only trying an experiment; they
could only guess at how the machine
would work; they could not know what
defects would be demonstrated by trial.
Many of the gentlemen who composed
the first convention, now favor another
for the purpose Of adapting the law
more closely to what experience has
shown the interests Of the State de,
mand. We do not look upon the pres,
ent organic law as a partisan lnstru'
ment, nor do we favor the adoption Of
any constitutional provision for party
benefit or from party motives. The
question is above and beyond
the reach Of mere political
ends and must be favored oil
opposed simply on the broad ground
of the common good. We know thai
there are many Republicans who have
for years been conscious Of defects in
the present constitution, and it is more
than probable that if that party haC
retained its power in the State, it would
have called a convention for complete
revision almost as soon as it is now
likely to be held. OF course it will bt
attended with some expense, though
probably not as much as the Governor
estimates; but it will prove a gooc
pecuniary investment to the people o

The Constitutional Convention.

The chief argument employed by
Governor STEVENSON against the hold
ing of a constitutional convention is lis
cost. The abolition of the township
system" as provided in the present con-
stitution, would probably save to the
people in enc or two years more than
the cost of the convention. There are
only two or three counties in the State
where the present township system is
productive of practical benefit, and
it will be many years before
the population Of other counties will
have grown to such an extent as 10
make the system either necessary or
advisable. Our State Constitution was
modelled after that of a much larger
and more populous and thickly settled
State. Hputs the clothes Of a full

The Result Of Exhaustion.

The natural result of exhaustion of
strength by excessive labor or action is a
feeling of weakness, dizziness, heaviness,
WEAKNESS, languor of body or mind, &c.
Persons Of weak constitution, or whose
habits are sedentary, frequently complain
of this relaxed condition Of the vital ener-
gies; and when persons of nervous tent
permanent are thus weakened and debili-
tated, disease inevitably follows, unless ii
is at once checked and overcome. All who
suffer from these causes alike require q
remedy which will strengthen the system
without exciting it, and awaken feeling
of true enjoyment, 50 that life may become
a source of pleasure. MISHLER'S HERB
BITTERS has won its way into the conf
dence of thousands of this class Of pesOns
who warmly indorSe 1t as the best invigor-
ating agent and the most potent and genial
of all tonics and alternatives for strengthen
ing and restoring the physical constitution.

The City Election.

1t will be learned from a card pnb-
lished this morning that the committee
to whom was intrusted the arrangement
Of q Citizens Convention for the nomi-
nation of candidates for city offices, has
deemed it most expedient to abandon
the movement. We are inclined to
copicide with them in opinion. Almost
any plan of nomination they would be
likely to resort to, would be liable
to the objections of which they COM
plain when regular nominations are
made by the party organizations. The
trouble is that the men most interested
in the proper government of the city
and the intelligent management of city
affairs, hold themselves aloof from
primary meetings and make no ade-
quate effort to secure the nomination
of the best men. Ifthey attend primary
meetings at all, it is only for few
minutes, and they do no work to bring
about the result they desire.
In the present election, however, there
seems to be no determination upon the
part of either Democrats or Republicans
to draw party lines very strictly. 1t is
true regular nominations have been
made, but there are number Of indie
pendent candidates for the several
offices, each Of whom will prob
ably be supported by his friends.
The Democracy are conceded to
have majority Of votes in
the city, but when as at present, no
particular political principle is involved
or political advantage to be gained,
there are very many Democrats who do
not feel like insisting strenuously upon
the support of party nominations.
For ourselves, we believe the ticket
nominated last Monday nights, gener-
ally speaking, a good one. The gentle
men named are known to our
people and with their qualitica-
tons for the positions they seek
the people are more or less familiar.
The ticket will compare favorably, as
whole, with any other we have seen,
though, perhaps, others may not look
at the matter as we do, and will feel
like making up their own tickets from
the whole lumber Of candidates in the
field, and doing the best they can. The
same course will probably be
adopted in the several wards
in relation to candidates for
Council. Our advice to the people
in relation to the whole matter is:
Where good men have been nominated
for the several positions, give them
your support if you think you can do
better, vote for others; but by all means
give US a good Council and a good set
of officers for the ensuing two years.

STILL ANOTHER FIRE.-The engines
had scarcely been returned to the en-,
CINE houses, yesterday. before another
alarm was given. A fire originated in
the house Of Captain Joe. Moore, and
had obtained considerable Roadway.
Those living in the neighborhood at
once ran to the spot, and succeeded in
saving most of the furniture, though in
damaged condition. The engines.
from the distance they had to come, did
not reach the ground in time to throw
