A PerilOus Season.

Glorious and delightful as the Summer
weather is, its tropical heat is severe trial
to the vital powers. Even the strongest are
sometimes Frustrated by its effects. The
common phrase applied 10 this condition
of the body is general debility" Now,
general debility arises from, and includes a
variety of ailments The liver IS more or
less affect. d, the bowels are either constipa-
ted or too much relaxed, the stomach but
half performs the work OF digestion, the
appetite is poor, and the spirits depressed.
This is what is called general debility. IT is
general diSarrangement ofall the physical
functions, and requires as remedy med
icine that will regulate them all. Hostel
ter's Stomach BitterS is specially adapted TO
fhis purpose. Its general operation is not
confined to a single organ. II the liver IS
afrected, il restores its tone. II the stomach
is torpid, il regenerates 1t. IL the nerves are
tremulOuS and weak, II braces and rein
forces them. If the mind, which ever SYM
pathiZes with the body, Is gloomy and de-
spondent, IL relieves the difficulty, and soon
brings the whole mechanism OF the body
into harmony with the laws of health.
There is no civilized nation in the West
ern Hemisphere in which the utility OF
Hostetter's stomach BitterS as tonic, cor
receive and anti-bilious medicine, Is not
known and appreciated. Throughout the
Tropics il is considered, both by the people
and the profession, the standard specific.
While 1t is medicine for all Sc isons and all
climates, 1t is especially suited to the COM
plants generated by the weather, being the
purest and best vegetable stimulant in the
world.
Beware of the Bitters made of acGid and
dangerous materials, which unScruplOuS
parties are endeavoring to foist upon the
people. Their name is legion, and the pub
lie has no guarantee that they are not poi
sonous. Adhere 10 the tried remedy, Hos

A PARTY QUESTION.

The Constitutional Convention has
been proposed in the interest Of the en-
tire people otthe State, without regard
to race, color, or previous condition OF
politics. 1t is a measure for the COM
mon benefit Of all, aud the majority
party in the State has not had the most
remote design Of securing for itself any
peculiar Constitutional powers or priyi-
leges, or of inflicting the slightest In
justice upon those who solately abused
the power they wrongfully held. But
from the time the Convention was first
mentioned it has been assailed by the
Radicals as Democratic measure.
The act providing for the call was pas
sed by a party vote, the Radical leaders
whipping in all their partisans TO op

A few days ago the telegraph report
ed that Captain TALlAFERRo, native
of Virginia, captain in the Conteder-
ate service, and now a planter near
Macou, Mississippi" had appeared be
fore the Ku-Klux Committee in Wash
ington and testified to the existence Of
an organized band OF Ku-Klux in his
county; that he had attended some of
the meetings, but had never been sworn
in and had never participated in any of
the raids; that fifteen negroes had been
killed, &c, &e., to the great delight OF
the 'committee and the general gratifica-
ton of the Radical press. 1t appears,
however, that TALIAFERRo is about as
reliable as Rev. LAKIN and no more
The Baltimore Gazette says that he
lived in that city before and after the
war; that he was private in the Con-
lederate army, and that he only served
one year, and was a miscellaneous bum
mer during the remainder of the time;
that he is liar, thief and murderer;
and in proof OF its assertion publishes
the following extract from letter writ
ten by a Baltimore merchant who
knows him we'll:
"Taliaferro bears a most disreputable
character. There is nothing you can
say Of him in this respect that would
be too strong. If he were to come into
my store, l would put clerk to watch
him while there, and would order him
out as soon as possible. Whilst in the
South he had the reputation of being
bounty jumper, and at Madison, dur
ing the war, according to the statement
of citizens there, he, with two or three
other men Of like stamp, took three
Union men, prisoners. handcuffed, from
the Jail to the woods and shot them
down in cold blood. This so enraced
the citizens of Madison that Taliaferro
had to leave. He also travelled through
the South and collected accounts from
persons indebted in Baltimore, aud put
the money in his own pocket. l Ger
tainly would not believe him on his
oath"

REPRESENTATION.

II the arithmetic man Of the Inteli-
qenesr can cipher out how a new ap-
portlonment of members Of the Legis-
lature is to be made in accordance
with the present census, counting either
the white population alone or white
and black together, giving to each
county that has more than half the re-
quisite population a delegate Of its own
and still not increasing the number OF
members beyond the Constitutional
limit, he should at once effect partner
ship with STEVENSON and 60 into the
estimate" business. A brilliant career
awaits him. II the number Of mem
bers is kept at the present limit, it will
be impossible to assign delegate to
each county that has half the requisite
population. The Legislature is just in
that dileumna that compels it to violate
either one clause Of the Constitution
or another; it must either put two coun-
ties that have each half of the required
population into one delegate district
and assign them one representative, or
it must increase the number Of mem
bers OF the Legislature. That is the
situation. Without amending the Con
stitution the apportionment cannot be
properly made, whether the negroes be
included in the basis or not
For instance, adopting any Of the
various reports Of the census of West
Virginia, the population Of Ohio coun-
tv entities her 10 four representatives;
Kanawha is entitled to hree; and Ma.
son to two, an increase Of one to each.
Now, if the IntslHgsncer can find
place for these three new members with
out diminishing the present representa-
ton of any other county and without
depriving Of its separate representative
any county that has half the ratio, it
can perform a mathematical impossible
ity. There are at least five counties
that have heretofore been included in
delegate districts that are now, under
the one half rule, entitled to separate
representation, and may as justly de-
mand it as may Hancock or Brooke.
What is to be done with them?

The Lntelhgeneer rises to explain

The IntsKgeneer rises to explain
whythe actual number OF members o.
the House of Delegates is fifty,six when
the Constitution authorizes only fifty
FIVE, but, as is usual, fails to make out
its case. The Constitution provides
that, in case the counties of Pendleton'
Hardy, Hampshire, Morgan, Frederick
Berkeley and Jefferson became parts OF
this State the House Of. Delegates
should consist Of fifty-seven members.
Certainly this cannot be denied. Under
the original apportioument, two dele
gates were assigned to Frederick county,
which is also true. Well, Frederick
county did not come in. Now if the
IntelGgsnesr can prove that taking two
from fifty-seveu leaves ffty.six we will
acknowledge that the editor is as good
in figures as Governor STEVENSON 49,
which is saying a great deal.

EGYPT.
An tal Legislature.

Colonel James NJ. Morgan, of South
Carolina, who has been in the service
of the Khedive OF Egypt for several
ears past, has returned to this country
and. relates some singular stories con-
corning his Oriental employer. He
says:
When the -Yiceroy returned from
France, he called his Prime Ministers
together and said: "In order to have a
great country we must have legisla
Ting body" and he then made known
his plans. Delegates were selected
from various districts and informed they
must be divided in opinion, that every
measure should be debated, and the
Minister who called them together said
Now all who favor the government
will stay on the right, those who oppose
it will cross to the left, and those unde:
cided will remain in the center" No
sooner was the division called than all
the delegates made rush for the
right There was no opposition or no
medium party. This won't do,
said the Minister, there must
be an opposition" and he called to
him an old sheik named 1brahim, and
said: "You must lead the opposition. "
What is itY' said Ibrahim. "Well,
when the Government introduces law
you must protest and argue against It,.
Hum" said the sheiek, then il the
Khedive says he wants so'and-so | am
to say no, you shan't have it," "Yes.
said the Minister. A jovial smile
lighted up the tanned leather face OF old
Ibrahim, he shook his head and said,
None for Shek Ibrahim too much
bastinado." After a time, by liberal
bribery, an opposition was established.
One day when the minister, Hassam
Bey, was absent, one Of the opposition
violently opposed a measure Of the
Khedive's. A Government member
from Pama jumped up and moved that
the opposition member be bastinadoed
for reasonable conduct. The motion
was carried, and the recusant Egyptian
was knocked down and bastinadoed on
the floor OF the House. That was the
last session of the Egyptian Corps Leg
islatiff.

THE RAILROAD CONNECTION

The Second Branch Of the City
Council considered and passed last
night new ordinance granting to the
Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company
the right OF way from their present
depot along John street to the depot OF
the former Hempfield railroad. 1t will
come before the First Branch of the
Council for action tonight.
One OF the members Of the Railroad
committee who had an interview with
Mr.. GARRETT recently in Baltimore, re-
ported to the Council the substance Of the
conversation had. Mr.. GARRETT stated
that it was his intention to extend the
Hempfeld railroad 10 junction with
the Connellsville road, but specified no
time when that extention would be
made. He said that if the property Of
the company in this city were exempted
from city and county taxation, past,
present and prospective. he would ma
terially enlarge and increase the ca
pacity OF the railroad shops here.
The ordinance adopted embraces
everything that the Company desires
and exacts no concessions whatever. 1t
is a sort OF free will offering on the part
of the city to the railroad, the city
granting the use Of John street for the
Washington switch, and it is a little
difficult to see just what immedi-
ate advantage the corporation will de-
rive theretrom. However, the Railroad
committee seemed TO be perfectly salts.
fled; the ordinance passed by de-
cided majority, though some vigorous
opposition was made; and the feeling
in the Council seemed to be that every
thing was lovely and happily arranged.
The grade Of the street is to be altered;
the cars are to RUIZ at the rate Of six
miles an hour; the Company is not to
be liable to suits for damage to property
along the line; and everything is serene.

pose it, The Radical members OF the
Legislature Illuminated an address
against it after it had been adopted, and
all the big and little Radical journals
in the State have been barking at it
continuously ever since. They make it
a party question they array party ami
mostly against the Convention they
style the Convention a party measure
and WELD their party lash with merciless
severity against any Independent Re
publican who talks of giving it his
support.
This being the case, the Democracy
Of the State have q two-fold interest IN
carrying the Convention triumphantiy
through. First, because it is right OF
itself and demanded by the interests Of
the State with the Conduct OF whose
affairs the Democratic party is now
charged; and second, because its defeat
will be a party triumph for our implac-
able political foes. Every Democratic
vote cast against the Convention, is
cast in the interest Of the Radical party
and will contribute just that much to
the restoration of that party to power.
The Radicals will measure their party
strength by the vote against the Con-
vention, and wherever they succeed
through the apathy or connivance of
Democrats, they will claim party sue
cess. We trust that the Democracy OF
West Virginia will wake up to the im-
portance the issue and prevent their
political foes from stealing a march
upon them in this matter.

Jefferson Davis.
From the New Orleans Times ]

From the New Orleans Times
Possibly nothing has heretofore been
so offensive in Radical eyes as the sin,
gular purity and blamelessness Of Je.-
ferson Davis private life. The contrast
in this respect between a fallen chief
and his triumphant revilers has proved
a silent rebuke and reproach against
the sanctity claimed for their successful
cause. 1t is no wonder, then, that a
strong desire should exist to assail it, or
that among such people one could be
found sufficiently low and debased to set
afioat an Ubiquitous story, so entirely
untrue and so wickedly malignant as to
earn for its originator clear title 10 the
scorn and contempt of every respectable
man and woman in the land.
The fendishness which prompted
and the ribald malevolence which per-
sists in circulating SO cruel falsehood,
it is we'll to know, is born of the same
charity which gave the country eman-
cipation, and preserved inviolate the
best Government under the SUM-" 1t
came from our brothers, with whom we
are invited to cultivate relations Of
amity and union, and if such is the
measure Of their sincerity and encour-
agemeHt We trust to see the better
and more chitalrous among them yet
repudiate this foul Islander upon an
aged and honorable gentleman. whose
greatest fault consisted in sacrificing all
that was dear and valuable in life to
his sence Of duty. and what he deemed
the welfare Of others. How many Of
his detractors will step across the
frail line which separates time from
eternity with 80 fair a record.
