Sinking slowly.

Diseases that progress rapidly to crisis are
dry rot does not blast tree as suddenly as a
stroke of lightning, but unless arrested it des-
troys it as certainly; and in like manner chronic
debility, although it does not kill with the
swiftness of yellow fever, is as sure to sap the
springs of life eventually as any acute disease,
if not checked by invigorating medication
There is something inexpressibly touching in
the spectacle of premature decay. Languor,
pallor, emaciation, depression of spirits, and q
distaste for exertion, are its ordinary symp-
toms, and they should be promptly met by
tonic treatment. The best invigorant and ex-
hilerant that can be administered in case of
this kind is Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. The
stimulating principle of the preparation rouses
the dormant energies Of the system, and the
strengthening and regulating properties give a
permanent and healtbful impulse to the vital
forces thus brought into play. The failing ap-
petite is re-awakened, the process of digestion
and assimilation are quickened, the quality of
the blood is improved, the secretions become
more natural, and every organ that contributes
to the nourishment IF the body undergoes sal
utary change. By these means the repair of
the physical structure is effected and its health
and vigcr restored. In no class of diseases has
the benefcent operation of the Bitters been
more marked and striking than in those char
acterized by general debility and nervous pros
tration. Ladies affected with these ailments
find in this most wholesome of all tonics and
eorrectives the safest and surest means of re-
lief. It is strong to restore and powerless to
injure. Such is the uniform testimony of
tclouds of witnesses"
Port Tobacco times, and Charles County advertiser. (Port Tobacco, Md.) 1845-1898, 1872-02-02
rhe steamer Hornet.

Ths steamship Hornet, famous for having
once sailed from an American port as the FIRST
and only war vessel Of the Cuban navy, and
afterwards being concerned 10 successful at
tempt to land arms aud ammunition for the
insurgents. arrived 10 the harbor of Baltimore
on Friday night last. She was conveyed out
of Port-au-P Prince by the United States frigate
Congress, where she had been blockaded for
the past year by Spanish men-of-war. No
resistance was made to her sailing, the vigor-
Gus action Of orr Government ip demanding
her release aud furnishing. the protection OF
the guns Of the Congress having been sufi-
Ecient 10 insure her safety.

Transforming the CompIexion.

The transformations produced by HAaAS's
MAGNOLIA BALM are quite as astonishing as any
scene on the stage of theatre. That famous
beautifer, transmutes sallow. peeky looking
complexion, into one in which the lilly and the
rose vie for admiration, and imparts to dry,
harsh skin, the softness of perfect loveliness.
Tan and freckles, which country air and sun
light are pretty sure to produce. in spite OF
parasols and sundowns, are completely obliter-
ated by it; while it has perfectly magical eff
feet in banishlng undue redness, blotches and
pimples from the skin. When the lady who
has used it to remedy her complexional defects
looks in the mirror, she is equally astounded
and grati6ed at the Improvements in her APP
pearance. Every blemish has disappeared; hel
neck, arms and bosom now rival in whiteness
the snowy collar which encircles her throat
her cheek mantles with a peach-like bloom and
she isready to invoke blessing on the inven-
tor of the article which has wrought such de-
lightful transformation.
