Midsummer MalnIies.

The hot solar rays that ripen the harvests
generate many distressing diseases. If the
river be ut all predisposcd to irregularities,
may he anticipated. A weak stomach, too,
is weakest in the summer months, and the
loss of vitality through the pores by excess
sivc peEspiration is SO great, that II whole
some tonic, combining also tho propert les
OF II diffusive stinufant and gentle eXhiia-
rant, is in many cases necessary to health,
and under no circumstances should be dis
pensed with by the Sickly and debilitated.
Ofai the preparations intended thus to re-
| fresh, sustain, and iortify the human
| frame, there is none that will com pare with
! lIoStctt"r's Celebrated Stomach Bitters
| They have been weighed in the balance OF
| cX pcricncc and not found wanting; have
been recommended from the first as II great
in spite of interest cd opposition from innu-
mer:,blc quarters, stand, after twenty years
trial, ut the head of all proprietary medi-
cineS intended for the prevention and cure
of tii ordinary complaints of the stomach,
the liver, the bowels, and the nerves. In
| the unhealthy districts bordering the great
rivers of California, HoStettcr'S Stomach
bittct:t may be rfaS.Sf.d as he standard one
for every species of intermittent
nittrnt fever. The people who inhabit
those dist rictS, place the most implicit con
iidcUre III the f'rcparation-a confidence
that is increased every year by the results
of itS nprfHt ion.
AS biltcrs, so called, of the most PERM,
ri"tcs character sfringng mp like fungi on

4 Serious Imposition.

That shipment of nCW cotton from
ESpcrance plantation, below here on
the river, has turned out badly. New
Orleans was greatly Hurried at the dis
coVcry, which was made by the first
sample, that ii was Oif cotton. COnSid-
cradle mischief had been done already.
however, rs the news of the arrival of
the new cotton had been tcIc::rapheL to
all parts Of the world, and the rotton
"Sf,orta' were i'll great girc thcrr;,t. 1t
does not appear very clearly who is to
blame for this serious inlpoSition Mr.
w. Ewing, the shipper, appears to be
innnrcnt, but the cotton was marked
Hr" rattan before shipment, by whom
does not yet appear. Wenay add that
the planters of the OuaChita valley re-
pudiato Indignantly this attempt to
destroy commercial confidence and in
tcrritN. We trust it may vet turn out
TO have been the thoughtles8 act OF
some Irresponsible fellow, and that its
repetition will never he attempted on
the Ouachita river.

Hs3s- \ few gentlcmen, Liberal, So
called, got together in Old Claiborne
the other day, and, the telegraph says,
"passcd seven bitter resolutions ;" after
which, in :. spirit of lihcrllity never
eu,ialed, the meeting advised the union
State ticket "to get out of the way ~
We should Just like to- know what these
Claiborne gentlemen were thinking
about when they flew of the handle
and rendered such advice TO the able
men in this Stat" who support the I'm
ion ticket and who have grown gray in
the struggle for honest government and
popular rights. Why. such men as

and the hungry horde of fellow; who
have stripped the state of her jewels,
| ruined her credit, dcbauchch the halls
of legislation, den1nraiiHea the land
and made more than : n,rckrry of pop
ular government! Surely, the good pcO-
pie of old Claiborne, who have always
held honest officials in the highest e3-
TEEN, who, in all their trials, have pre-
served the faith pure and unaullied
will not be mislel into the pursuit Of
Il policy worse than Utrpian in every
aspect iii which it can be viewed, We
have only to remind them of the trout
bleH they have passed through, in nb
tanning "A decent hearing from the:3..
! sam" Liberal Republicans, in order to-
get respectable men appointed to office,
and the numbers OF times their caritcat
efforts TO get the8" men to do right by
| the people have been diarcgar,l"L, for
! them to appreciate the unreas0ning sac
riiic'.5 IT ~ expected for them Ia make
/ IN an alliance, Under existing "if"unf-
stances, with the Governor and hi
! followers. Let the Liberal Republicans
run their ticket, if they rhopsr-we
/ have 10 objection but ict il meyer be
said of the people Of Claiborne parish
who We're duly represented in both the
Reform and Democratic Conventions
Of June, tina. they did not stand square
~ mp to their brethren - other parishrs
Of the state. We may tell ..'tr Liberal
friends in Claiborne that their bitter
rcSOlutinnS' will be received in 4 truly
liberal spirit; bat that the Union state
ticket Will certainly not get out of the
way" until the people have so decreeo
IN November.
