these perniciOus com pounds into the hands and
down the threats of lifelong patrons of the

although these conspiracies against health and
life very rarely succs ed, it nevertheless seems
to be duty occasionally to warn the credulOus
against them. Hostetter's Bitters, the
eQualled remedy for casual indigestion, con-
irmed dyspepsia, billiousness, liver complaint,
malarious fevers, constipation, constitutional
weakness, and the functional derangem ent OF
the weaker sex, has for twenty years stood at
the head OF all medicines of its class-so far
above them as to render competition futile. 1t
has not yet reached the meridian of its popu-
lariiy, its sale being larger now than at any
pei iOd since its introduction. Its utility as
preventive of disorders engendered by an in
salubrious atmosphere or unwholes1me water
is admitted by physicians practicing in I'M
healthy districts, and it is recommended as a
stimulant by many practitioners who will not
take the responsibility of prescribing the adul-
terated liquors of commerce.

NASHVILLE, March 2S.-At meet
ing of the State Executive Commit
tee of the Democratic party to-day
the following was adopted:
Believing that the time has come
when the welfare not only OF our
State but of the nation, demands that
the Democracy should take counsel
together and prepare for harmonious
action, and in the intelligent and pa
triotie discharge OF their duty in the
approaching contest, both State and
national, the Democratic Executive
Committee for the State OF Tennessee
do, therefore,
RssOlre, That a Democratic State
Convention is hereby called to assem-.
bic at the capitol in Nashville, on
Thursday the ninth day of May next,
TO nominate candidate for Governor,
and 20 take such other steps in view
OF the approaching contest, both State
and National elections, and as the
condition of the country and circum-
stances then existing, may suggest,
and to this end we urge upon the peo
pie in different counties, to assemble
at as early q time as practicable in
primary meetings aud select suitable
delegates to represent them in said
convention; That, recognizing the
fact that the people of Tennessee have
a common interest in resisting the en-
crOachments of Capitalization and pre-
serving a republican government,
as well as correcting eOrruptiOns and
abuses, which has become 80 wide
spread and alarming, and believing
that upon these great questions,
there is little or no material
diversity of opinion among them,
we invite the cooperation Of all
conservative patriots, by whatever
party name they may have heretofore
been called. In accordance with the
foregoing resolution,
a convention Of the Democratic par
ty Of Tennessee is called to meet at
the capital on the Oh Of May.

NIB. PEgREN's SPEECH LAST NIGHT
The1e never was a speech made in
this city, since the days Of Polk, Jones
and Mt. Plsgah, more rapturOusly ap-
plauded than that OF E. o. Perrin pro-
nounced last evening in the Opera
House. It was as wisely conceived as
IL wss gracefully delivered. When the
crowd had followed the train Of solid
thinking for q time, and the speaker
thought WEAKNESS possible, he
would recite an inimitsble story
with inimitable grace and natural
ness. II Mr.. Perrin win speak
again in Memphis, when popular
interest in Federal politics has
been reproduced, he viii gather by
the charms Of his eloquence the great
est thrOng that has greeted, in mod
ern times, any popular orator. 1t is
hardly necessary to say that Mr.. Per-
riD, who has bsen the Secretary OF
the National Democratic Conventions
and of the National Democratic Con-
vention since 1860, approves that DEM
ocratic policy adopted and expounded
by the APPEAL and the leading organs
of the party. a full synopsis Of the
speech appears in another column. 1t
was very apparent that if we are to
have a straight Democratic ticket in
the field, Mr.. Perrin and those
he represents viii select a candidate
as nearly as possible like David Da-
Wis in his personal and intellectual
traits, habits and attsinments. The
eulogium pronounced upon Judge
Sanford E. Church, Chief Justice Of
New York, was IS earnestly ap-
plauded here as it would have been in

that the enemy suffered equally as
great loss. He states that he cap
tured three guns, six officers and eighty
men, but lost some mounted hOWit-
zers. Disz is in the State of Ganguato,

THOSE ARMS.
Examination Of the Marquis de ChanbrEE-
Slow Progress.

WASHINGTON, March Il,
The Marquis de Chambrun was ex-
aminsd to-day before the Senate Arms
Committee. It appeared from his
testimony that he is net connected
with the French legation in any di-
plom3tic capacity but acts as its coun-
sci and is also engaged in the prOsecu-
ton cl claims for French citizens. The
witness gave an account of the trans.
actions OF M. Place in New York who
had been advised by him, at the
instance of the French legation, not
to buy any arms but TO keep quiet
After Place was tried in France and
acquitted he wrote to the Marquis
showing the wOrthlessness of the tes.
timOny against him and incIosing a
copy Of letter of Remington to Le-
cesne, ChambruD, owing to press
OF business, had this letter in
his possession six weeks be-
fore he read it cariully.
The secretary said il anything were
wrong he desired Chambrum to pre-
fer charges in writing, when the Mar
quis said he could not do SO, being an
American citizen, cut he would help
uAul ~ nidhO dn AuNSSblEGSlOu u nuO
out the truth regarding the fraudulent
transactions In the sale of arms. The
secretary did not appear to be exceed
ingly struck with his argument, but
said: ''f you prefer charges l will
make short work with those fellows"
The marquis repeated he could not
make such charges for the reason give
en-, adding; "The movernment Of
France has no desire to interfere with
this cilse at ALL"
When, several days after this, a
letter was sent to NJ. Bellonet, the
charge d'sfaires, the latter said to
M. Chambrun that he could not con-
slider the communication as official,
because it could not be received as
such by him, for, according to French
law, letters belong to two parties, the
one who writes, and the one who re-
eeives; therefore, as NJ. Ohambrun re-
ceived, its contents intermediately, 1t
belonged to him. 1t is the same that
appears in the preamble to Summers
resolution.
