The Means of Escape.

The fall has many pcrils for the weak and
feeble, and its sudden atmospheric changes
are trying to the constitutions of even the
robust. The chilling temperature OF the
nights, as compared with the almost sum-
MGR warmth of the days, necessarily excr-
ciScs an unhealthy influence on all who are
exposed to it, Hence dyscntery, diarhTa
intermittent fevas, bilious attacks, and de
rangemcnts OF all the secTctions, are COM
mon at this season. The true way TO escape
them is to meet the causes with protec-
tive and invigorating medicine. Hostel
ter'S Stomach BitterS are designed for this
exigency. This powerful vegetable specific
relieves the system of aIl acrid humorS,
purifies the fluids, tones the sccretive Or
ganS,p promotes healthy evaporation through
the pores, increases the activity of the di-
geS,ive functions, cheers the spirits, and
regulates the bowels. To do this is to make
the whole body vigorous, and render it
proof against the vicissitudes of tempera-
turc, and against malaria. 4 course of the
great tonic and Alternative is therefore in all
cases advisable rs preventive at this sea-
son. Ii, on the other hand, the mischief is
already done, and intermittent or remit
tent fever is actually present, or the liver,

medicine so certain to effect a quick and
thorough cure as this harmless and agree

4 Louisville Rebel,

One gentleman, with as pure hear,
as God ever created, and as kind and
gentle as the best beloved mother in all
Christendom, called at the reliet office
on Main street, Louisville, with large
bundle in his arms, which he said he
wanted to send to Chicago. The bun
die contained two gray blankets, well
worn, and marked on the corner C. S.
A. They were, the colonel said, the
only thing he had left to remind him of
the lost cause. He had carried them
through many a fierce fought campaign,
and finally, when the war was over, he
had taken them to his home. He
thought as much OF them almost as he
did Of his wife or his oldest boy, but he
wanted them to 90 to Chicago. and he
prayed as much as it was possible for
him to pray that they would do some
poor sufferer as much good as they had
HIM in the past.

Vote The Ticket.

Editors of the Register:
Now that the Democrats in the
several counties and districts of the
State have nominated their candidates
for the Convention and Legislature, we
can view the political field before us,
and ascertain il our candidates are such
as should urge us 10 active eXertions
for their election. 1t seems to me that
most excellent and suitable set OF
candidates have been selected for the
various responsible places to be filled,
and that in no case is there any sub
stantial reasons why they should not
be warmly supported. This is an i'm
portant election to the Democrats, and
their future success as q party depends
upon their action now. The people
demand reform in the affairs OF the
State Government, and the Democrats
have promised it if power was given to
them. The people have been confident
in the promise and have given the power,
and the only way TO fulfil the promise
and be firmly installed in the manage.
ment and control OF the State Govern.
ment is to select our own agents to
work ont the reform demanded And to
affect the desirable end each Democrat
should 90 to work and secure the cleo
ton Of our own men. Throw away
and forget selfish considerations. En-
gage in no swapping OF votes or scratch
ing OF tickets. We have good men
nominated, and let us vote in all cases
the entire ticket, and unite and cement
tie party for the good OF the State.
Nothing tends to iisorganize a party
sooner than swapping votes or scratch
ing tickets. Let's give confidence to
the people that the great object of the
Democratic party is to benefit the
whole people Of the State, and make
them happy, united and prosperous.

PACKING the Roots in Tree Planting.

-
When a tree grows it packs the
earth with it's roots, the earth already
solid; we say earth instead OF soil, as
the roots penetrate the hard subsoll;
and in this firm bed the roots continue.
What does this teach us? 1t teach
ca us that we are to pack the earth we'll
around the roots when we transplant
our trees. They were used to it in the
nursery or where they stood, and they
require at least the same solid grasp
The way we pack, even five do it pretty
closely, still falls far short OF the or'gl-
nal pressure. We can only pack close
enough by pounding; other pressure is
not sufficient. Do it carefully, but DO
it firmly. Have the roots all spread
out evenly and naturally-a strained
root will not thrive, and then apply the
pressure. OF course, the finer the soil
is sifted and worked in among the
roots. the better. II moist, the packing
will be the more effectual. In this
way YOUR trees will have many advan.
tages. They will withstand the wind
and the drouth. and even the rain bet
ter: there will not be that 'cashing
among the roots, making them egen more
loose than before, but they will resist
even, to some extent, the penetration OF
the moisture in the solid bed in which
they are established.
But it will seem to many that to pack
so close the roots will be choked'
Have we not already referred to the
original firm packing OF the tree when
nature plants and grows it? 1t is the
business of the roots to absorb. Will
il not then be seen that the more close
the contact the more chance for thtS a1-
sorption7 Experience, if nothing else,
would be sufficient here. Be not afraid,
you cannot pack too close; you cannot
pack close enough. Get a solid bed OF
good mellow soil, set we'll and firmly
and then pound on the earth: we
prefer on the whole,the spring (early)
for transplanting, though OF course
fall will also do.

The Intelligence tccbly denies The
charge that it is the desire of the Radi.
cal party to break up the Convention
and thus fasten the old Constitution
upon the people Of the State. 1t does
so in opposition to what i, knows of the
sentiment of its party. The Parkers.
burg State Journal, the leading Radical
newspaper in the State, boldly proclaims
as its platform ADJOURN CONVENTION
on DAY OF MEETING tbs making the
fight upon this issue The Radicals in
Kanawha county are doing the same
thing; and all over the State we hear
from Radical sources similar demand.
The question is whether the money
already expended and that the assemb-
ling of the Convention will cost shall be
uselessly thrown away, or whether the
Convention shall do the work for which
it has been called. No Democrat can
with safety to his party or in accordance
with his views Of right permit the adj
journment scheme to succeed or even APP
proach success. Ohio county must see
TO it that not single one of the Radi-
cal candidates here is permitted to be-
