SPECIAL NOTICES.

Causeless Depression This expression is
often used, but il is manifestly absurd. Gloom
and melancholy are not spontaneous. They
are unnatural mental conditions and usually
have corresponding causes. If there is no APP
parent reason for dependency, II is a symp-
tom of physical disease. In nine cases out Of
ten the stomach. the liver and the bowels are
responsible for the cloud which rests upon the
brain. In all such cases immediate and per-
manent relief may be obtained by the use Of
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. If the digestive
organs are weak an inyigorant is necessary; If
the liver is disordered an Alternative is required;
If the bowels are constipated or irregular
gentle aperient is needed. In that famous
vegetable remedy these three medicinal pro-
perties are commingled with several others Of
a scarcely less important character, and hence
II speedily cures every species of hypocondria
arising from material causes, BY removing the
causes themselves. In the summer, when dis

complaints and all diseases which affect the
assimilating and secretiye organs are espe-
eially prevalent. the importance of having
this invaluable tonic. Alternative and corrective
in every dwelling, and within the reach of all
who travel by land or water, cannot be over

CLAF-rRAP AND CAxT.--Invalid reader,
IL you are unwise enough to put yourself
outside Of any Of the mock tonics guar
anteed TO contain no diffusiye stimu-
LIANT" you will inevitably come TO grief.
Ask your physician il any liquid prepar-
alton, destitute of stimulating proper
ties, is worthy of the name of a tonic,
He will tell you no. Shan all such nau-
seous catchpennies. Plantation Bitters,
the most wholesome inyigorant in the
world, owes the rapidity with which it
relieves the disordered stomach and the
shattered nerves to the diffusive agent
which conveys its medicinal ingredients
to the seat of the complaint. That
agent is the spirit of the sugar cane, the
most nutritious and agreeable of all the
varieties of alcohol The medicinal in
gradients of the Bitters, valuable as they
are would be comparatively useless
without this distributive basis. They
would ferment and sour. Beware, as
you hope for health, of the horrible COM
pounds of refuse drugs in a state Of fer
which humbugs are endeavor-
ing to foist npon the public as medi-
cines. R eod-d&w

We have no change to report in the con-
ditiOn OF the money market. There Is q
good demand for discounts both IN bank
and on the street, hut all approved notes
are readily negotiated. In fact, the market
may be regarded as easy, although there
has been some increase in the offerings. We
quote Al paper, with or without cOllaterals,
at l00I2 q cent y annum, and second
grade at I2015. Mortgage paper rules at
9010 " cent for first class, and l0l2 for
second.
The gold market opened with very little
animation. In fact, until nearly noon we
did not hear of a transaction of any mag
nitude, but the opening rate was quoted at
1888 lagainst la at New York;. The subse-
ouent business was at from 1874 al ll3&

$1,000 at 1872, and $4,000 at 11334. The
market closed at li31s @ll3as against ia
at New York;
We heard of no sales of silver, except
small lots of American half dollars to and
by dealers at l08A q l0846, at which the
market is now quoted. Mexican dollars are
nominal at y cent premium.
Foreign exchange exhibited more activ-
ity, and ruled at sitter rates, closing at a
net improvement of ls p cent on last even
ing's prices. The movement covered &c.,,
200, including eI500 bill of lading at 1926;

We also noticed a sale in New York for

but the only sale reported was $500 new

The sales of city appropriation certificates
embraced $4,000 at 7534, $1,000 and $1,000 at

The Cincinnati Nominations.

The Nation, which was warmly opposed
to the nomination of Mr.. Greeley, says:
1t is almost impossible to form as vet an
idea OF much value as to the political pros
pect. But it is pretty certain that Greeley
has gained steadily during the week, that
much of the ludicrousness of his nomination
has worn off and that the feeling in favor
of his adoption at Baltimore grows apace
among the Democrats. In fact, the South
ern Democrats have been labOring inces-
sanity, and with considerable success, ever
since the convention, to create an opinion
favorable to him which by the ninth of July
would be strong enough to make his adOp-
tion seem a necessity. The unknown ele-
ment in the problem is the extent to which
the Democratic convention can command
the allegiance Of the rank and file when the
ticket is no longer regular The calcula-
tion of the best judges is that twenty-five
per cent at least will wander off and follow
their own sweet wills when the chiefs give
up the game, and of these of course the great
mass would go for Grant. Mr.. Voorhees,,
OF Indiana, who is, if anybody is, in good
and regular standing in the Democratic
church, has declared his sentiments on the
subject OF Greeley in a speech which was
what the reporters call "excoriating," and
doubtless was very good statement of the
reasons which will operate most powerfully
against GT6eley at Ihe convention. 1t was
the more significant as it took the form of
comparison between Greeley and Grant
from the Democratic point of view, and the
result wass altogether in favor of Grant
Greeley having to bear the burden of the
Ku-Klux law and the election law, to say
nothing of his abuse of the Democrats from
time immemorial. Against his bailing Jeff
Davis, Grant has to show his preventing
the arrest Of Lee, Johnston, and other
Southern leaders after the surrender, and
ne has advocated amnesty if not as often as
Greeley, as much in proportion to his
means, But all the indications we meet
with go to show that Democrats of the
soornees way Of thinking are in a minor
and heavily supported by the party.
