Too PooR.-The man who is too
poorsto take q newspaper, was ip the
city yesterday, with his entire family,
attending the circus. His team con-
sisted OF o two year old mule and

ten children thought Dan Rice was the

With Darius, Chairman Of the Board
Of Supervisors Of .Assyrfa. and were
yociferous in their inquiries where the
Mons were. The old lady supposed that
Ncison, the bareback rider, was the
gentleman that wanted every man to
do his duty, and the patcrnal head Of
the family spent three hours after his
return home in irving to stand on his
head and pick his teeth with his toes. in

feats he had witnessed. --Rcgister. ri

PENNsYLvANIA.-It Is probable that,
between the efforts Of tho Philadelphia
Press and ex.Gov. Curtin, seconded by
several other newspapers and politicians
of minor influence In the State, Hartranlt,
the Republican candidate for Governor
OF Pennsylvania, will be defeated next
week, although his adherents seem to be
certain OF his election by from ten 10
twenty thousand. In the event OF his
defeat, however, that circumstance will
be seized upon by the conCederates and
paraded as sure indication that Greeley
and Brown will carry the State in No.
vembCr. But it will be nothing of the
sort. In view OF the detection in the Re.
publican ranks over the nomination of
Hartranit, his vote will be no Indication
whatever Of the strength Of that party.
The real test and sign will be the vote on
Chief Justice and the three Congressman
at large. If the Republican candidates
Tor these offices are elected, as they can
hardly lail to be, the State is as certain Tor
Grant by largely increased majority on
the 9Th Of November as the sun is to rise
that day, no matter what may become of
HartraniL-WGSh. Star.

Natural Decay-Protect tho system.

Natural Decay-Protect the system.
The human body is a machine, and
therefore cannot endure forever; but, like
a watch or sewing machine, 1t will last
much longer If properly regulated and
duly repaired, than If no pains were taken
to keep it in order. The great object Of
every one who desires long and healthy
life should be to put his body in condition
to resist the liGe.threatening influences by
which we are all more or less surrounded;
and no invigorant and corrective at pres
ent known so effectively answers this pur.
pose as the vitalizing elixir which, under
tho unpretending name Of HOstetter's
Stomach Bitters, has been for more than
twenty years the standard tonic OF Amer
lea. In crowded cities, where the atmos.
phere is contaminated with the eiliuvia
inseparable from large populations; in
marshy regions, where the soggy soil reeks
with miasma; on the prairies and in the
forests, where every fall the air Is tainted
with exhalations from rotting weed and
grasses, or decompOsing leaves-in short,
Ia every locality where malaria exists,
this powerful vegetable antidote Is urgen.
tly needed. Fever and ague, bilious fe-
vers, dysentery, congestion Of the liver,
jaundice, rheumatism, and all diseases
which arc generated by infected air, i'm
pure water, or sudden changes Of temper.
ature, may be averted by Strengthening
and regulating the system in advance with
Hostetter's Bilters. Autumn Is always a
season of peril, especially to weak. suscep.
tible organizations. Even the more Wig
orous are apt to be in some measure
depressed by the humid atmosphere, loa-
ded with deleterious gases produced by
vegetable decay. The fall Is a period Of
the year when the renovation and regu-
lntiOn Of the living machine Is peculiarly
important, and the Bitters should there
fore be taken daily at this critical season.

AN ALUM SPRING IN WEsroN.-A few
days ago, Judge Irvine, while strolling
on some land he owns just at the edge Of
this village, came upon mineral spring
which afforded a considerable stream Of
water, and which, upon examination, was
found 10 have about the same properties
as the celebrated Bath Alum Springs OF
Augusta county. The spring Is situated
in raVine near the residence Of Mr..
Dawson; and has hitherto been unknown
except to a lot Of boys, who seemed to
think their discovery matter of no i'm.
portance The locality OF the spring is a
beautiful one, naturally, and small
amount OF money judiciously expended
would make. tho surroundings lar more
romantic and charming in appearance
than the Springs Of the old State. The
curative properties of tho water have
been tested, and are much better than had
been anticipated.
Since writing the above we learn that
the Judge contemplates erecting build
ing over the Spring, and otherwise beau.
tllying the surroundings Weston Demo-
