!. This is at least true of the old method
of treating the long abused and much
abused human body. 1t, is no longer
considered wise to put,a patient to the
torture in order to cure. him of disease
in which pain is already undermining
the energies of his system. True science
ranges itself on the side of nature, and
endeavors to assist her in her fight against
disease. This is the province of Hos
tetter's Stomach Bitters, the most ap-
proved tonic ever advertised in this coun-
try. IT may be recon mended as fall
medicine, par excellence; for it is in the
fall that biliousness, dyspepsia and mala-
rious fevers are especially prevalent.
The framo,. exhausted by the heats of
summer, is, relaxed and feeble at its
close, and requires, we may say demands,
artificial assistance. Afford it that as

The Chicago Ercning Journal says of
John Wesley: John Wesley deservedly
ranks, for plain, practical greatness, and
for labors Immediately extended and fruit
full, with the most wonderful leaders of
mankind. The story of what he did,
his aims, his methods, and his sue
cess, slngularly repeats the evangelis-
tic and apostolic records, in all those re-
spects i'll which imitation of Christ and
Paul could be attempted ON q modern
stage, by simple preacher and teacher.
There is the same coming down from all
pretentions or ambition, to deal directly
with the needy and neglected lower classes.
There is the same entire devotion, ener-
getic. incessant, Jealous, with faith
equal to all labor, toll, difficulty,
no matter what. There is the same
winning of the people and gathering
in of folks of low degree, or, as Wesley put
it, proselyting of sinners unto repentance.
If ever man did again the deeds of Jesus
and of Paul-found and trod i'll the very
steps of Master and apostle-that man was
John Wesley.

WE some time ago made comparison
between the request of Gen. Ewell, of
Middle Tennessee, on his death bed, that
nothing should be inscribed upon his tomb
in any way rejecting upon the Govern
ment of the United States and the course
pursued by Gen. Early, of Virginia, i'll his
address 10 the students of Washington Col
lege. Here is the contrast. Let every
sensible man read these lines and say what
mast be the result Of teaching such senti-
ments to the young men Of the South:
They tell us to forget dead issues. Can true
Issues ever be dead We do believe that peo-
PIE who forget their traditions are unworthy Of
tho name Of freemen. Ladies' l have faith in
you to instill into the rising generations the
memories OF the past. Upon you, young
friends, who are here in these walls preparing
for life, rests the hope OF your country. You
have the example Of Leo and jackson more
immediately before you profit by them. Com
Tades, who on many fields have followed the
great captain | need not tell you TO be true. If
any be renegades, let them go with the brand Of
intalny upon them. We have a sacred duty to
perform; the tomb Of Lee must be cared for;
a monument to him must be erected at the
Confederate Capital. We will do it, and show
10 the world that as we loved and honored him
IN life We are true in death, and not unworthy
10 have been the followers of Robert L. Lee.

The Courier-Jomnulhas proceeded SO far
on the War path with John Bull, that it is
discussing the probabilities of the South
taking part in 1t. After looking over the
whole field it thinks the South couldn't,
with much heart, go into war waged be-
cause the English were too friendly to the
Confederaey. How would that sentiment
read in one of the resolutions of the pro-
posed Reform Liberal Convention which
the Cowier-Jomnay is trying to prove will

TIE WONDERS OF SCIENCE.

The rapid progress i'll the Science that
deals with light and the closer Observa-
ton of the heavenly bodies is illustrated
in facts lately made public i'll new work
on spectrum analysis, giving history and
progress of the Investigations made III lis
application to terrestrial substances and
the physical condition of heavenly bodies.
In the work some of the triumphs of the
speetroscope are given and they read
more like demonstrations of supernatural
power than the actual triumphs of science.
Some time in May, 1866, what was sup
posed TO be new star of the second mag
nitude was observed i'll the constellation
Cornea Borealis. This star was observed from
various parts of Europe, and the discov-
cry heralded through astronomical circles.
One singular feature reported i'll connec-
ton with it, was that it varied materially
in brightness, decreasing from the time it
was first observed "a star of the second
magnitudel to one of about the ninth mag
uitule before the end of the month. The
second night after its first appearance as
very brilliant body, its light was examined
by Professor Higgins, in England, with
a spectroscope. The examination resulted
in the following explanation of the pheno-
menon:
THAT in consequence Of some internal con-
vulsion enormous quantities of hydrogen and
other gases were evolved, which, III combining
with some other clements, ignited on the sur
face of the other star and thus enveloped the
whole body suddenly in q sheet of fame. The
iznited hydrogen gas and its combination with
some other element produced the light charaC-
terized by the two bright bands in the red and
green; the remaining bright lines, among
which those of oxygen might have been expect
ed were not coincident with any of the lines Of
this gas. As the liberated hydrogen gas
became exhausted, the fame gradually abated,
with the consequent cooling the photoSphere be-
came less vivid, and the star returned to It's orl-
ginal condition"
In commenting upon the truths thus
evolved, the New York Post says "they
are wonderful, but when we remember
that light itself takes many years to come,
even from stars of the second magnitude,
and that this very event in the stars of the
Northern Crown must have taken place,
and the light which revealed it TO Us have
started ON its Grant, 'at a time when spec
rum analysis was yet quite unknown"
does not diminish the wonder.
