Guard Your Health and Life.

How inconsistent is human nature. Men
carry revolvers to protect themselves
against ruffians in well-polished cities,
where the precaution is unnecessary, often
neglect To fortify their systems against dis
ease in the most unhealthy seasons. Thou
sands of dyspeptics and other invalids are
now languishing in sick rooms, or feebly
and listlessly moving through our streets,
who owe their forlorn condition solely To
want Of common prudence. Far more in
imical than the roughs and rowdies,
against whose passable attacks the
the tmid arm themselves, are the morbid
elements that pervade the atmosphere at
this time of the year, and yet although IL is
an undenied and undeniable fact that n os-
letters Stomach Bitters afford more per-
feet protection against these causes OF dis.
ease, than any weapon ofolfense can afford
against lawless violence, the reckless and
incousiderate continue to brave the danger
with a positive 81 ieguard within their reach.
Every day, however, the number OF these
martyrs to their own want OF forecast, d.
minishes Each succeeding season demon
strates more clearly the ineStimable value
OF the Bitters, both as an antidote for the
causes Of disease, and specific for its con-
sequences. The miasma which generates
periodic disorders, rheumatism, liver COM
plant, irregularity ofthe bowels and other
physical disturbances, produces no effect
whatever upon systems toned, strengthen
ed and regulated by this powerful vegeta-
BILE medicine, dyspepsia, nervous debility,
constipation, Intermittent and remittent
feyers, biliousneSs, and in fact nearly all
the maladies which the btters, II taken in
time, uOuld prevent, are cured by the perse-
vering use OF the great remedy.
The genuine Bilters sold In bottles only,
and never by the barrel, keg or gallon, as is
represented by some unyriDciple dealers.

The Habeas Corpus Resolution
Business I'm the Convention and
Legislature-"ObiO" and Governor
Jacob.
CHARLESTON, February ..

CHARLESTON, February ..
Mr.. Wilson's resolution concerning
the suspension of the writ Of ha6eaS
corpus by President Grant, was consid,
cred in the Senate today, for short
time, the author making an able speech
in exposition Of the usurpatioDs Of the
party in power in the nation. lie was
attentively listened to by the Senators
and large number Of members Of the
Convention and of citizens.
The Convention transacted no bust
ness of interest yesterday, beyond
receiving partial reports from the COM
mittees on Representation and on the
Executive, the substance Of which |
gave you in my letters yesterday. The
committees are working with as much
expedition as is consistent with proper
deliberaton. The general feeling still
is that the session will be short one;
but, Of course, no one can tell how
much discussion will take place, and
how much time will be consumed, in
discussing the various committee reports
in open Convention.
The Legislature is working away
with a good degree of care and expedi-
ton. The hope is still entertained
that it may adjourn on the 18th Of
February.
observe that all the little Radical
sheets in the State have rushed to the
defense Of Mr.. Jacob, Governor, DC,
and scatter their insinuations OF motives
which prompted your correspondent
"Ohio," to indite his mild criticism on
the aforesaid dignitary's piece" with a
prodigal hand. That's appropriate;
it is in accordance with the eternal
fitness OF things" The base motives
attributed to Ohio" by these Radical
sheets were clearly suggested by Mr..
Jacob, the first fling of the kind hav-
ing been made by his Radical cousin,
John G. Jacob, editor of the Wellsburgh
Herald.
When John Hall, who never was a
Damocrat. resigned his place as men,
Der Of the National Democratic COM
mittee, an admirer OF Mr.. Jacob named
him as proper person TO succeed Mr..
Hall in that position. The suggestion
was just the thing, if the object was to
get man who would exactly fit John
Halls political shoes. Isuppose every
Radical penny-a-lner in the State
would heartily endorse the suggestion.

former committee reports IL favor Of
Isixty-6ve members OF the House oil
Delegates. Brooke and Hancock will
each have delegate, Ohio four, Wood
1.-TWO and Peasants one. This will in
crease the number Of Delegates from
the First Congressional District by two.
The Second District has also an in
crease Of two; while the same basis will
give the Third District an increase OF
FIVE.
The committee on the Executive, OF
which one Of your Delegates (Mr. Pan:
nelly is an industrious member, will
report in favor of four years term for
the Governor, and make him Ineligible
for a second term; the creation OF the
office of Lieutenant Governor, making
his term four years, and the incumbent
ineligible to re election; terms OF the
Auditor, Treasurer and Secretary OF
State, each four years, and eligible to
reelection.
The salary of Governor is TO be 5000,
with an addition OF $1,000 for house
rent until such time as the State
shall provide en- Executive Man
sion; and the salaries OF the
remaining Executive officers to be the
same as under the present Constitution.
! it is proposed to abolish the office OF
State Superintendent Of Free Schools.
and devolye the duties of this officer
upon the Secretary Of State. | think
this is a serious mistake, and it is to be
hoped that the Convention will not
agree to it. Our school system is
growing rapidly in importance and in
popular favor. The Office of State Su-
perintendent is already laborious and
an exceedingly important one-second
only in the amount Of labor performed
by its incumbent to that Of Auditor OF
State-and its adjustment will be a
serious blow to the school interests Of
the State.
The numerous instructions received
here with regard to the bill authorizing
a subscription on the part Of the city of
Wheeling to company to build a rail-
road to some point northwest are con-
Trajectory, and the members find it ex-
ceedingly difficult TO obey them all. A
bill is pending in the Senate for this
purpose and was to-day sent to COM
mittee to await further information
from home. Can't your City Council
and business men harmonic on this
i'm porant measure? If your own lead
ing men cant harmonic, don't blame
your Delegates fron! being doubtful as
to their duties.
The ice blockade still exists, and the
roses refuse to bloom. Mails now
arrive semi-weekly and depart as often.
The Wheeling school bill passed the
Senate on Tuesday and the House to
day. The only amendment made was
to strike Capt. Cochran's Loyalty"
qualification for teachers, which was
skilfully buried IN its belly, from the
bill. We believe our teachers are all
patriotic, but we have no use for the
term loyal. That word is only needed
in monarchical governments.

being the controlling one, in q
large majority of the counties, has
deranged financial affairs to such
an extent as to be very ap.
probably felt ia the amount collected
for the use OF the State Treasury. In
addition to this we note the further
fact, that the term Of Office Of the sher.
ifs and collectors having in charge
the collection of the revenues for the
year 1870, expired on the 3lst Of De-
cemter of that year. leaving them
without the resource of collections for
the current year to supply the de-
ficiencies OF the last. These facts &C
count somewtat for the large amount q
the revenues Of the year 1870, shoUn TO be
due and unpaid BY The + 'As.|Ss'"
quite a large amount is due to the
Treasury from delinquent sheiffs, as
will be shown by the table published
herewith. The efforts Of this office to
collect these delinquences by correspond
ence with the parties indebted, having
in the main failed, the preliminary steps
are bang taken to bring suit in every case.
In view of this fact it is believed that
the interests OF the State will require the
appointment Of a competent agent 10
gu pervise these collections, which if
found necessary, will be made. Since
the close Of the fiscal yearthe date at whieh
these tables are made up, several Of the
parties therein reported delinquent have
made large payments upon their inds6ted-
ness and a fev Of them have paid up their
accounts in full"
In addition to these facts and as
accounting in some measure for the
apparent increase in these delinquencles
may be mentioned the fact that a h ablt
Of overlapping seems to have formerly
prevailed in the Auditors office, but is
discarded by Mr.. BENNETT. The Audi
tors books are promptly closed on the
Both OF September and Sheriffs and other
collectors who have not made their
returns within the time allowed by law
are, without exception, published as
delinquent. This has not been the
case heretofore. Sherit1s have been
allowed to make payment at almost any
time that suited their convenience be-
fore the report was actually printed,
and every dollar that came in up to the
time Of going to press was included In
the report as belonging to the fiscal
year ending on the 30th OF the preced-
ing year September. For instance, we
happen to know that the late Sheriff Of
Ohio county whose name appears in
Auditor BENEFITS list as in arrears S.
449. so for taxes for 1870, has paid in. full,
but his remittance reached the State
treasury few days after the closing of
the books. Under the practice OF the
former Auditor, this sum would not
have been added to the delinquent list.
1t is very probable that there are other
cases OF exactly the same kind.

Col. Wilson's Plan for the Judiciary
The Assembled Wisdom in Good
SpirHts--SteVenson and the Apostles
DemOralizcd.

CHARLESTON, January 25.
In my last gave you a sketch Of
the plan for Judiciary system, pro-
posed by Col. Wilson, so far as it re.
lates to the Supreme and Circuit Courts.
1t also provides for county organization,
and as it is the most sensible and eco
nomical yet suggested, give you
summary of provisions on this subject.
1t contemplates the election OF five
members in each county in the State
one by the county at large to be Presi-
dent OF the Court, and the other four
from the Districts into which every
county is to be laid off. This Court is
to meet tour times in each year, and at
each session will consist of the Presi-
dent and ten members to be selected by
lot, and the whole FIVE to hold one SEES
sion to lay the county and school
levies; concurrent jurisdiction with the
Circuit Court, conferred in all matters
of law and equity. crimes and misde-
meanors, and original jurisdiction in
which the matter in controversy
exceeds twenty dollars. 1t is also to
have charge OF all county affairs, in
terpal police regulations, roads. probate
Of wills, &c. The Recorder is made er-
o6fcio clerk of the Court, without addi-
tional compensation, except the fees of
the Office. Each membe is to receive

three dollars per day while in session.
Two Justices to be elected by each Dis
trict with jurisdiction limited to twenty
dollars, none of whom shall be MEM
bers OF the Court.
The advantages claimed by the
friends OF this plan are: First-A better
class of men can be obtained as mem.
bers of the court than if they were
com PEELED to perform the ordinary du-
ties of justice. Second-It is cheaper
than any other, as the court cannot
cost over nine dollars per day in any
event. Third-Five men responsible
directly to the people OF the county will
manage the finances better than will
twenty.

The Mtelhgencer insists that part Of
the delegation from Ohio county were
not favorable to the adjournment Of the
Convention 10 Wheeling. l do not
know that there is any truth in this; in
fact, the assertion Of the Intelligncer on
the subject is, prima .tdcie, against its
truthfulness. But true or not, it now
looks as if the Convention acted wisely
in remaining here, from the number OF
resolutions passed by that body almost
daily calling upon the Auditor, Gov
ernor and others Of the Executive officers
for important information. An adjourn
mept of the Convention to q point dis
tant from the Executive offices and the
State Library, meant a protracted and
unsatisfactory session. 1t meaut, further,
the heated agitation and acrimonious

New YORK, LIST Feb, 1872

Nv Dear Sir Mr. Woods has been
here near two days and Tin connection
with Chapman and myself in earnest
conference with the contractors who
propose to build our road.
The main points are fairly understood
and agreed upon, but there is multi
tude Of minor detail, to arrange and
provide for which will occupy two or
three days longer before a final con.
tract can be signed. y
We are well pleased with these con-
tractors and feel well assured Of their
ability TO carry out their understanding.
Yours truly, JOSEPH BELL.
1t will be seen from this that the
prospects of the building Of the Hope
dale road are byno means so mythical
as some of our citizens have feared.
A standing objection to this road in the
estimation Of many has been its assumed
lmpracticability, and we have heard
many persons pronounce themselves as
entirely favorable to the project if they
could only be convinced that there is
any reasonable probability ofits success.
Mr.. BELLS letter indicates that the pre-,
liminary steps are well nigh completed
and that the building Of the road will
depend solely upon the ability OF the
contractors to fulfil the terms OF their
agreement. The prospect is, to say the
least, very favorable indeed.
