TIE OYSTER TRADE.-Thc expectation of
oysters from Norfolk to Europe is assuming
increased proportions. The Journal of Satur-
day SAYS that two firms in that business have
more orders than they can well carry through.
1t appears that our English and French friends
are so fond of Chesapeake bay oysters, that
they have given standing orders for large
quantity to be shipped forthwith. One firm
is forwarding at the rate Of 200 barrels per
month, principally to France. The other is
shipping at the rate Of about 1000 barrels per
month to Liverpool. AT present they go TOR
ward by New York, thence to destination by
the English or French line of steamers re-
spcctively. ~,
line will be increased to large extent as soon
as the weekly line Of Allan steamers commence
to run, and when colder weather will lessen the
risk Of loss by decay: ~ IN
The oysters bctofe being barrelled are all
culIcd, the long and crooked oysters beng re-
cc,cd, and are packed with the hat SIDE do"n1
ward, 50 as to retain life. The single aud oval va
shaped fat oyster is that which IS especially
sought after by the English and French deal

Guard Your Health and Life.

How inconsistent is human nature. Men
carry revolvers to protect themselves
against ruffians in well-polished citi' s,
where the precaution is unnecessary, often
neglect to fortify their systems against dis
ease in the most unhealthy seasons. Thou
sands Of dyspeptics and other invalids are
now languishing in sick rooms, or feebly
and listlessly moving through our streets,
who owe their forlorn condition solely TO a
want Of common prudence. Far more in
imirai than the roughs and rowdies,
against whose passable attacks the
the timid arm themselves, are the morbid
elements that pervade the atmosphere at
this time of the year, and yet although 1t il
an undenied and undeniable fact that h oS-
letters Stomach Bitters afford more per-
feet protection against these causes OF dis.
ease, than any weapon OF offense can afford
against lawleSs violence, the reckless and
inconsiderate continue to brave the danger
with positive safeguard within their reach.
Every day, however, the number OF these
martyrs to their own want OF forecast, d.
minishes Each succeeding season demon
strates more clearly the ineStimable value
OF the Bitters, both as an antidote for The
causes OF disease, and specific for It's con-
sequences. The miasma which generates
periodic disorders, rheumatism, liver COM
plant, irregularIty OF the bowels and other
physical disturbances, produces no effect
whatever upon systems toned, strengthen
ed and regulated by this powerful vegeta-
BILE medicine, dyspepsia, nervous debility,
constipation, intermittent and remtttent
fevers, siliousness, and in fact nearly all
the maladies which the bitters, II taken in
time, uould preucnt, are cured by the perse-
yering use OF the great remedy.
The genuine Bitters sold in bottles only,
and never by the barrel, keg or gallon, as Is
represented by some unyrinciple dealers.

The Wheeling REGISTER, in reply to
an article in the Clarksburg Telegraph,
says:
THE Penitentiary is not in sight OF
the State OF Ohio or in sight OF any
place else in particular, except the top
Of the Indian Mound in the town oil
Moundsville.
Why did not the parties authorized
to choose the grounds for it, select a
place where it could be seen ? In our
opinion, it would have been just as
sensible to locate the building on the
headwaters OF Fish creek, as behind our
Mound. 1t is to be hoped, however,
that with a new Constitution, we shall
have rules and regulations that will
totally annihilate the whims of all such
internal fools, who, according to their
saw, were the makers of this State,
when, in reality, they were merely cast
off barbarians, devourng each other
like the heathens OF the Cannlbal
ands.-Moundsville National.

THE Clarksburg Telegraph disasrees
with us as to the ACCESSIBILITY OF con-
stisutional provision to regulate the rate
Of interest, and very cordially approves
of Colonel WILSON'S resolution looking
to that object. As the resolution mas
been rejected by the Convention and as
it is BY no means likely that the Legs
lature will at it's present session make
any alteration in the existing law upon
that subject, it is useless to continue
the discussion at the present time
The TslsgrapRs ideas of money and the
relation it sustains 10 the business OF a
community and the power Of the Legis'
lature to regulate its use, are not con-
s:stent with the spirit Of the times nor
with the facts Of modern commerce.
Should the question come up again ana
it, discussion be again appropriate we
think we can show that the present law
sbouIi be made more liberal in it's
terms rather than more restrictive. II
is already in many respects a deaa
letter on The statute book. The higher
law OF commercial necessity overrides
or evades it every day.
