SPECIAL NOTICES.

Natures Appeal for Help indica-
ton of debility and exhaustion is a mute APP
peal of Nature for medicinal aid to arrest the
progress of decay. How are these silent APP
meals of physical weakness to the resources OF
the healing art usually met? Tco often, I'M
fortunately, the drugs prescribed aggravate the
symptoms. Whoever recommends drastic pur-
eatiyes, or mineral salivants, or poisonous
alkaloids, under such circumstances, is an ally
of the ailment and an enemy OF the patient
Whoever, on the contrary, advises the broken
down and responding sufferers to resort to
that peerless vegetable inyigorant, Hostetter
stomach Bilters, flor aid and comfort, is true
philanthropist. 1t is safe to say that there
never was an instance in which such advice
was given and accepted without the happiest
results. From the very depths Of weakness
and dependency thousands have been restored
10 yieor. health and cheerfulness by the reno
waiting operation of this wholesome stimulant
and Alternative. All its medicinal ingredients
are remarkable for their sanatiye properties,
and in combination form an absolute specific
for indigestion, liver complaint. nervous anec-
tions. rheumatism, intermittent and remittent
feyers. general and local weakness. and every
species of disorder incident to change of sea-
son or climate. The cumulative element OF
this invaluable protective and restorative is
not an impure excitant, but the thoroughly
reetihed essence Of sound rye, admitted by all
GOOD chemists to be the most healthful OF ex-
hilarants.

1t is thus seem that while the assessed
valuation of property diminished more
than ope-half in these States, between
the two periods of 1860 and 1870 the
local taxes augmented l25 per cent In
other words, the burden increased in
proportion to the inability to sustain it.
Seven millions less of acres were improv-
ed in 1870 than in 1860, and the value of
the improved lands was less than one.

The North Carolina Election.

to the late election in North Carolina'
1.-The Administration finds itself beat
en- in the Legislature, left with only three
Congressman out of eight, deprived of
its United States Senator Pool, humiIi

ing one Of its heaviest majoritles than
there are adult inhabitants, as the only
means of retaining its beggarly majo1ty
for Governor. With or without the pur.
gine of the polls which the revelations
Of the last three days compel, this vic
tory is inspiring That Nerrirhan is
fairly elected, we honestly believe; but
even without that crowming token Of the
triumph we gladly take up and repeat
the words with which we FIRST haired the
conclusive returns, and in which the Or
eans have lately been seeking sad COM
fort: We'll done! noble North Caroli-
ma On your soil the first Declaration
of Independence was made! On your
soil Jefferson Davis held his last Cabinet
Council, and the Rebellion dissolved =
On your soil has been won the first great
victory Of tue campaign that is to make
us once more united people. When
Cincinnati had declared the resolve of
the best brains and principle of the Re.

response that spoke in advance the

WASHINGTON, Aug 4-Senator Sum.
ner has received large number of let
ters and kilograms from prominent Re.
publicans in all sections of the country,
heartily eongratulating him for the stand
taken by him in his letter. From a
large number of Massachusetts Repub-
licans he has received telegram con
graduating him, and he has reason to
believe that other prominent men in his
State will soon follow the example of
Gen. Banks, and announce their support
of Greeley and Brown. Mr. Sumner
says he cannot doubt that the feeling of
the country for Greeley and Brown will
assume the form of great revolution,
which viii sweep the country as it has
not been swept for years by a political
party. He looks upon the denomination
of Grant at Philadelphia as quite prov
idential. se
Providence, he says, was wiser than
any of the politicians or public men of
the country. If any other man than
Grant had been nominated the Republi-
can party would have stood solid and
united as before. Then the Democrats
would have made straight-out nomin-
alton, and the bitterness and hostility
of years would still have been kept up.
BY Grants nomination, however, many
of the best men of the Republican par
ty were driven off; and they, uniting
with the Democrats, formed a party
whose central idea was reconciliation
and peace, recognition OF the rights
of all men before the law, and an oblit.

possible chance there is for Grants re-

They escaped the rule OF carpet bag
gers, and this is the result. While in the
other States, where the war waged less,
and 'doyal Republicanism" still more,the
sad picture of decay, desolation, and
ruin is presented in the strongest colors.
It's impossible for proof to be stronger
than is disclosed by this comparison, of
the direct and destructive effects Of that
policy, for which Gen. GRANT and his
party are responsible, There is no pos.
sible escape from the conclusion that it
was deliberately planned in the interest
of partisau success, so as to hold those
States as conquered provinces, to be
welded to crafty the ambition of the
President.
