NEW ADVERTISEMENTS.
IassItude and Debility.


The relaxation Of nervous energy which creates an
ndisposition to physical mental effort strong
almost to amount to positive inability, and which we
term lassitude proceeds from variety of causes. The
principal of these constitutional debility, heat of
the atmosphere, coupled with humidity, climatic
changes and the physical protratiOn consequent upon
long illness. But whatever the is, it must be
perfectly clear that if the nervous system is unduy re-
Taxed, something is required to brace it up. That
something is Hosttetter Bitters, which is universally
recognized the most complete and speedy recuper-
of the physical forces in existence It has been SO
thoroughly and widely demonstrated as to be matter
of positive certainty and familiar knowledge. that the
Btters will not only rehabilitate the physique when
shattered and wasted by disease but will Also if taken
Systematically actually compensate the constitution
ally feeble frame for its deficiency of strength, and by
infusing new life into weak system, endow it with the
health and vgor which Nature has denied it. The
Bters also enable the body to resist the enervatng
influences of heat humidity and changes from tenn
perate to hot climate. It is these accounts spe-
ciay to be recommended to travellers and residents in
the iorrd zone and persons subjected to abrupt tran
sitions in temperature.

THE SILK TRADE.


With the rapid increase of population in
the United States, and the consequent in
creased demand for articles in general use,
the facilities for supplying such demands
increase. The happy policy which has
prevailed in our Government for some
time of fostering and protecting our indus
tries, has multiplied our manufacturing
establishments all over the country to
wonderful extent, and If this policy should
still be pursued, as we trust it will, our
prosperity in this respect has just begun.
We have been surprised to sec in late
article on the subject in the New York
Evening Post, to what an extent
the manufacture of silken fabrics is
being carried on in the United States.
More than twenty-five millions Of capital
and about sixteen thousand operatives are
engaged in this branch of industry. By
referring to the census of 1860, it will be
seen that, at that time, the whole capital
employed in the manufacture Of silk in
this country was 81 1915, 800, and the mum.
Der of operatives employed, 5SS males and
1895 females. This unprecedented in
crease in the productive capacity of the
country has added immensely to our
wealth, and must be attended with the
most fattering results.
There is no good reason why the
manufacture of silk should not be
carried on in this country as ex-
tensively as in any in the world. Oul
climate is favorable for raising the silk
worm, and in the article in the Post, t.
which allusion is made above, Eastern
Tennessee, Kentucky, Ohio and Southern
Pennsylvania are mentioned as localitie:
where the experiment has been success
fully tried. The American silk trade il
destined to become a source of immens'
wealth at no distant day.

The Democratic press have lately kept
up vigorous howl about corruption in
the New York Custom House. Their in
tention was to divert attention from the
gigantic frauds of Tammany. The recent
vigorous movements against the " Boss "
thieves of the world in New York, have
served to direct public attention anew, to
those huge frauds, by the side of which all
other corruption seems trivial. Tweed,
Hall, and Jay Gould, the leading Demo
Gratis of the leading city on the continent,
stole by the fifty millions, and they are
now likely to be punished for it.
The difference in the two parties is in
Dictated by the different ways with which
they treat thieves. The Republicans prose
cute them with vigor and the Democrats
hush up, as much as possible, all cOrrup'
ton, and when the guilty parties are ex'
posed, treat them as honorably as before.

Democratic party and the Union Republi-

be middle ground. Those who are not

OUR dispatches this morning are not
very clear as to the overthrow of that cor
rupt combination known as the Erie
Ring" but we presume they relate to the
passage of the Southmayd bill" in the
New York General Assembly. This Dill
has been under discussion for several days,
and has met with all the opposition which
the Ring" could bring to bear, but the
friends of reform have been all the time
confident of success. The bill provides
for an honest election of Directors, and
provides safeguards against the swindlers
who have so long controlled that powerful
corporation in their own selfish interests.
IT is an old saying that a lie travels fas-
ter than the truth. It is certainly so illus
trated in the attacks made upon the Presi-
dent. The charge is repeatedly made in
the Democratic press that Gen. Grant, as
President, has received valuable gifts and
appointed the donors to important and
lucrative offices. The charge is false.
Since he became President of the United
States he has not accepted q single present
and yet one half the readers of Democratic
papers believe he has made regular bust
ness of it. ---- .-.......
