Fraudulent Misrepresentation.

Among the pcrnicious frauds Of the period there
is one which especially deserves the apprehension
OF all who place proper value on health and life
The swindlc referred to consists in the attempts Of
irresponsible parties, in different sections Of the
United States to force upon the market vile astrn
gent compounds manufactured out Of damaged or
worthless drugs and refuse liquor as preparations
possessing the rare medicinal virtues of the mos
popular and cficacious of all vegetable tonics and
alternatives -IIostcttcr's stomach Bttcrs
The concoctcrs Of these "loca bitter" " are, in
the trucst Of the phrase, ppJlc eoWies. Thei
fiery potions inlnme the stomachs stupefy the
brains and shatter the nerves Of those who are I'M
wise enough to accept them substitutes for the
famous Vegetable Inygorant that for twenty years
has been known throughout the Western Hem
i-phere as a standard article.
The fame Of Hostetter's Bitters as n health-pre-
serving vitazing medicine, il wide the world,
and the miserable attempts Of needy nostrum-mon-
gers to suppant II would be treated with silent con-
tempt were it not that serious consequences some
times follow the use Of the nefarious compounds
in question. Whoever recommends any of them as
remedies for Dyspepsia Biiiousncss, Constipation,
Intermittent Fever rheumatism, or any othercoln-
plant for which IIostetter's BittcTs Is n known

It has been sometimes necessa- ry to keep him in confinement, and, when not confined, he preferred the largest liberty life of vagrancy, sleep ing in barns and subsisting on uncooked vegetables. While wandering in the town of Kent, few months since, it is said he was assailed by rowtlies, that rope was thrown about his neck, and that he was dragged upon the ground and into the river. It tis claimed he received injuries du- ring this affair which resulted in his death. It may be asked, why not investigate the matter?

Those who believe that a constabulary law would work wonders in behalf of the temperance cause, should read the address of the executive committee of the Massa- chusetts Temperance alliance. It opens with the following paragraph: A e2.f.
 '1n view of the trust you have confided to us, we deem 1t our duty to express our conviction that the temperance cause can not be sustained under the present laws of the State. It is our duty to report to you that the liquor traffic is regaining what it had lost; that the laws do little to restrain it in most of our cities; that the open traffic is extending to the towns; that the sale and use of liquors have near ly doubled and are likely to increase. - Comment is unnecessary.- y.-P Pnttuditfna.
