Such is dyspepsia. The stomach. and
the brain are too Intimately allied for the
one to suffer without the other, so that
dyspepsia and dependency are insopara-
BILE. 1t may be added, too, that irritation
of the stomrch is almost invariably ac-
companied by irritation of the temper
The invigorating aud tranquilizing
operation of Hostetter'S Bitters is most
powerfully developed in cases of indiges-
tion. The first effect of this agreeable tonic
glow pervades the system, the chronic UNI
easiness in the region of the stomach is les
sened, and the nervous restlessness which
character:zes the disease is abated. This
Improvement is not transient. 1t is not
succeeded by the return of the old symptoms
with superadded force, as is always the
case when unmedicated stimulants are
to impart permanent accession of health
ful IMMIGRATION. But this not all. The
APPARENT anti-billious properties of the pre-
paration are scarcely secondary in impor-
lance to its tonic virtues. If there is an
overflow of bile, the secretion is soon
brought within proper limits, and if tho
hillary organ is inert and torpid it is toned
charging organs is equally salutary and
in cases of constipation the cathartic action
is just sufficient to produce the desired
result gradually and without pain. The
Bitters also promote healthy evaporation
from the surface, which is particularly
desirable at this season when sudden spells
of raw, unpleasant weather are apt to
duce congestion of tho liver, coughs, and
colds. The best safeguard against all dis
eases as bodily Oigo1', and this the great Veg
etable Restorative especially promotes.

Work and LibernIitY.

A railroad from Pine Bluff to Alex
andria is of greater Importance to our
citizens than ever, since the late dis
astrous confiagration. Ne mast in
crease o'o' trade as the only means OF
certain recovery. In the midst of the
busy season now, we are apt to become
listless about Improvements. But
summer and dull times are coming,
the interval between business seasons,
when new business relations are apt to
be formed with other towns and cities.
We must prepare for formidable COM
petition, and work industriously to
secure new trade. Work and liberali
ty should be our watchwords.

We are indebted to Mr.. Mea1y for
Photographic views of the "Ruins of
the City of Monroe" taken three days
after the fire. One view is taken from
the Post-office up Grand street, and
the other from the foot of DeSiard
back from the river. The two em-
brace nearly all of the burnt district,
and give a very correct idea of the ex-
tent of the disaster and the inconceiva-
BILE change wrought in our little city in
the short space of three and half
hours. That portion of the city where
the law offices and Hanna's ware
house stood is not included in either of
the views, and could not be from the
points at which the artist stood.
A view taken to-day would show an
other considerable change since the
fire. Over dozen places OF business
are either up or going up on Grand
street, and workmen and laborers arc
busy at every former place of business
on DeSiard, preparing to erect new
hogses. Lumber, shingles, brick and
san ne in big piles all along the side
walks, forcing the pedestrian to take
the middle of the street, and the ham.
mer, saw and trowel are making music
from sunrise until pitch dark. OuI
peoPie'are evincing great recuperativC
energy and resources, and deserve un.
stinted commentator.

Mrs. Jane Delery, daughter of the
late Judge Bry, one of the pioneers in
the Ouachita valley, sister of our es-
teemed friend Mai. Henry NJ Bry and
mother of Chas. Delery, Esq, died on
the 22nd., in the Island, in her 9th
year. Mrs. Delery was lady OF un-
common claims to love and esteem,
and enjoyed both wherever she was
known. Quiet and unassuming in her
manner, soft-spoken and Inatronly in
her tones, cheerful in her disposition,
exemplary as a member of society and
as mother, her worth was impressed
upon all who knew her. She died, as
all such matrons die, sincerely and
deeply lamented.
Mr.. P. u. Ransom, Mrs. DeIery's
grandson and a worthy young man,
followed her the succeeding day
to the unseen world, expiring at
the threshold of young man hood.
Mr.. Ransom had won good name for
himself and bright prospects were before
him. He died of pneumonia, in his
26th year.
