taking the elections altogether,
the conclusion is forced that the luck
of General Grant in politics, as in war,
is likely to be confirmed BY his re-

not so compact that it can Withstand
the shock Of repeated defeats.

chances of the Sage Of Chappaqna are

Der elections was announced. There
is a possibility ofsuccess yet left to

minds to do without the electoral
votes of Ohio and Pennsylvania, and
add them to the number that are for

w-PERIODIC DISORDERS.-Ihep arox-
ysmal maladies which are characterized py

and IL is curious fact that in many parts OF the
country where they are prevalent, other diseases;
that bear no general resemblance to fever ana

produce the first named disease.
they areas well rs in the regular internittents,
the most safe and reliable remedy TINT can be
administered is Hostetters Stomach Bittcrs.-
Neither quinine nor arsenic are needed. Both
are in the highest degree dangerous, and are
sure to leave sad traces of their poisonous action
in the system, whether they arrest the paroX.
ysrns or not. In many instances all the so-called
specifics Of the regular materla medlc utterly
fail to break up'' intermittent and remittent
disorders. But he great vegetable Tonic never
fails. The spasm or the minute olood-VeSscls
which causes the chill, is the result OF nervous
weakness, produced by the deblitatlng opera
ton OF an unwholesome atmosphere, and the
tone and vigor given to the nervous system By
the Btters enable it to throw of the disease -
The wiser policy however, is to anticipate at
tacks of this nature, by arousing all the latent
energies OF the body ut the commencement OF
the moist and chilly season, with this incompnr-
able antidote By pursuing this course, inter
mittents, remittents, rheumatism, collie, bilious
ness, dyspepsia and pulmonary affections may
always be prevented NH 4-eolw
