The Peoples stamp of ynIae.

The government endorsement, which le-
galizes the sale Of Plantation Bitters, is
not the only stamp affixed to that famous
Vegetable Tonic. 1t bears, in addition TO
that official sanction, the still more valua-
bic stamp of public APPRECIATION. This in.
estimable voucher Of its rare properties
as Tonic, Corrective and Alternative, is OF
much earlier date than the Government
credential for millions of sick persons
had pronounced it the Grand Specific of
the Age long before Congress thought of
taxing proprietary medicines. 1t is un-
necessary to repeat, in detail, the proper
ties of this wonderful Vegetable Invigo-
raut. The best reference that can be of.
fered to those who desire the full particu.
lars Of its virtues, is the General Public.
Ask those who have tried it as remedy
for dyspepsia, constipation, biliousness,
intermittent fevers, nervous debility, rheu.
matism, sea sickness, low spirits, or loss of
vital power, what Plantation Bitters has
done for them, and be governed by the re.
spcnse they make to your inquiries.

gers.
No thought Of rocreancy or inf.
deity to the democratic party en-.
tered his mind. He wanted TO sub.
init TO its cOunscls, hoping that
time would show its ways to be
wiser and more beneficial to the
country than he predicted. Others
might be more enlightened than
himselfon the points ut issue, and
their plans should have u fair trial.
He then reviewed the national po-
ljtical field, and said that the Re-
publican party, but for its abuses of
power, would have had before it
longer lifa than was ever granted
to a political party in tho history
of the world. But its career had
been full of wickcdness, gradually
but surely forfeiting tho confidence
of the people and driving the best
elements out Of its organization.
Hc illustrated this with the history
of the Indiana Democracy, which
had reduced the Republican ma
jority of 81, 900, in 1864, so that the
republicans barely saved their State
ticket in 1868, as he claimed by
fraudulent means, by five hundred
majority. Then came the fifteenth
observation-disclosures legally ratified
"a fra1d, in his judgment, on the
American people which gave an in
crease of 100000 votes to the Re-
publicans, yet the democrats swept
the State by 5000 majority. He
thought this showed q decline Of
the republican party, and if the
Liberal Republicans could even
moderately well fulfil their expec-
tations, tho vote of the State would
be cast against the Administration
party in October and November by
as large majorities 40 were ever
known in her history. Mr.. Voor-
bees thought the administration of
public affairs in the South for the
last three years had been the worst
ever known in the history of civil
lied people, and he could not doubt
tho demand from that section for
anybody to defeat tho re election
Of Grant. They believe the cleo
tion Of Greeley will afford them re-
lief, and therefore they demanded
his domination. 1t has been ac-
corded more in Difference 20 their
condition and their wishes than
any other one cause. If Greeley is
elected he will stand pledged BY
the strongest obligations that ever
rested upon candidate to &C
cord the South tho blessing Of
Just, kind and fraternal policy Of
government; failing in this, he
would be ac:urs cd amongst men.
Voorhees, declared himself oppos-
ed to protective tariffs, to negro
suffrage, to the resumption of spc.
cic payments, to redemption of
bonds in gold, and the exemption
from taxation Of national banks.

ings of Gov. Davis in The removal OF honey
the radical Treasurer Of the State. THIS
was expected nfter the partiSan decision
ON the school law. Tie people have now
lost all confidence in the Supreme Court
and will vait with anxiety for some legal
means Of getting rid of it. Neither the
persons nor property OF citizens are safe
with a Judiciary, governed By partizan
feelings and prcjndices and regardless of
law and justice. We have no sympathy
for Honey, or any of the radical olficiLls,
who get into trouble with one another.
We look upon them all rs chips from the

little FOUNDER than others. We must clear

of df,y years. Let his worth BIZ remember

Sir Having recently procured

the ruic in Bowditch' Navigation

wing the Snn at equal attitudes, and
finding tho variations deduced 80
widely different from what L was
led to believe by statements of the
Surveyors of this county, that | i'm
mediately commenced u series of OBJ
servations on the fixed stars, which
confirmed my observations on the
Sun, differing less than one minute
from one another. The mean of
these observations gives GO 2S> 30N
