ReasOas why Grant should be Nom

The Cincinnati Commercial Of
yes,el day has Icing editorial &C.
companied by some extracts in
opposition to the denomination OF
President GRANT. Mono of the
Presidents opponents base their
opposition upon any question Of
public policy. It is upon purely
personal grounds hat George
Wilkes, the Commercial, and other
profcssed Republicans arc oppos-
ing Grant When he was ipaugur.

come his "Westcrn organ" but
having no use for organs he did
not meet the Commercial volun.

wanted, but did not get an appoint

unlock the secret of his disaffec-

soreheaded Republicans. To the
Presidents policy they do not Of
fer any opposition The princi-
pal points Of his late message
are
First-Protection Of the right.

the constitution.
Second-The maintenance o.

The truth is that the President

the nation. An 'anti-Grant' part,
must be anti Republican, anti-lib

The cure Of a disease of n consumptive
kind necessarily prompts doubt in the
mind, rs most people have been taught to
believe 1t OF an incurable nature, and as
long as this is believed to be the case, peopl
will be 10th to do anything for its RELIEF
rather trusting TO the merciful doings o
nature than to bad doctoring. DIR. Keyser
reports two well marked cases of pulmonary
disease one on Liberty street, and the other
in Manchester; both these persons, II APP
piled to, will substantiate the facts in a way
so forcible as to put all doubt out OF the
question; yet with all this, people daily
yield up their lives to the fell destroyer, &C.
counting themselves vanquished at the
first approach Of the disease What We say
to persons OF consumptive habit, or with
the disease fastened on their system, is tina
1t costs but a trifie to try bottle of DR..
kEYsERs LUNG CURE, which will convince
more than columns of advertising. The
Doctor makes the medicine, and If you wish
can examine your lungs from top to bot
tom, and accurately point out their nm
healthy places. He may be seen from A.

send four bottles securely boxed, by ex-
press, with full directions how to use it.

Burning and'Shakfng.

BY ridiculous misappIication OF Ian
guage, invalids are sometimes said to enjoy
every poor health" but II is not on record
that any human being was ever spoken Of
as enjoying chills and fever. And yet there
are thousands, at this moment, in one or
the other Of the two stages of the disorder,
who might just as well have avoided 1t as
not. If there is anything demonstrable in
therapeutics, II is that Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters is an antidote to intermittent fevers.
No instance can be cited In which II has
been taken, either as safeguard against
this class of diseases or as q remedy for
them, and failed to produce the desired
effect. The season when malarious fevers
are rife has commenced, and no inhabtant
of any district subject to their visitations
should be without this great preventive
and remedy. Indeed, II Is most potent
protection against all the ailments which
prevail in the spring months. From marsh
and pool, and from all moist soils, are now
rising the mephitic elements which give
birth to fever, indigestion, biliousness,
COLES, and whole host of epidemic and
other maladies. Aid the system to resist
them. Energize and regulate all the animal
functions with this reinforcing agent. This
precaution is as necessary in cities as in
new settlements, for malarious fevers are
now almost as common in the great centres
of population as on the borders of the
southern bayous and marshes and the rich
agricultural regions Of the West. The pre-
ventive and remedy is accessible to all.
Who will be unwise enough to brave reck-
lessly the danger 1t would avert?

Special Dispatch to the Register.l
CHARLESTON, March =, 1871.
The West Virginia Legislature, haV-
ing completed the business OF It's pres
ent session, adjourned this morning at
eight o'clock. All the important bills
that have come before the legislative
body have been passed, and there has
been no crowding of necessary meas
ures into the last hours of the session
as has been too often the case hereto
fore. Most of the members departed
for their homes this morning, but few
will remain until after the Inauguration
of Governor Jacob next Saturday.
The town of Charlestown has again
been startled by an incendIary
fire. Several attempts to fire
the buildings on the water
front of Main street have lately been
made, but were frustrated by the
VIGILANCE of owners until last night.
The new buildings which had been
recently erected on what has been
known as the Burnt District were COM
pletely destroyed. Messrs, Clark,
johnson and Estill are the principal
sufferers. The office of the Adams
Express company, two stores and a
saddlery establishment, were burned TO
the ground. have not learned the
amount Of the insurance. The fire was
undoubtedly the work Of an incendlary.
There has been much popular opposl-
ton to the rebuilding of the site burned
over last spring, and the City Council
has been severely censured for not con-
demning the property for the purpose

SPECIAL NOTICES.
Groundless Objections.

Objections are sometimes raised against
certain medicines on the ground that they
cure so many different diseases. A mo-
ments reflection will expose the shallow.
ness of such an argument, for there is
scarcely a medicinal drug of any kind that
is not used for more than one disease. The
reason why MISHLER'S HERB BITTERS
cures so many diseases is because it is the
best remedy ever discovered for deranged
stomach, or Dyspepsia, and because II in
vigorates the entire system, strengthens the
nervous flbres, elevates the standard OF all
the vital forces, and sustalns most health
full tone OF the entire human organism.
Medicine that will do this will cure any dis
case, for the simple reason that nature will
do the rest. 1t Is q sure protection against
disease, and If the Importance or protective
medication We're generally understood, no
family in the land would risk being with
out this great Household Remedy for sin
gle day. Sold by all druggists and dealers.

sent Pennsylvania on the national

SHOT Ar.-Dr. S. 7. Dodd, of West
Middletown, states that at late hour
on Saturday night last, while he was
returning from a visit to patient, and
when in the vicinity of the scene of
the murder of Sam. Brown, he was shot
at bv some one concealed in thicket
by the roadside, the ball passing just in
front of his face. The Doctor being I'M
prepared for such encounters, very con-
siderably increased the speed Of his
horse, and consequently failed to obtain
any further knowledge OF his assailant.
