Its tho easiest thing In the world to
lose the blessing Of health, but when Lost
1t IS not 80 easy to regain 1t. The popu-
lar idea of fifty years ago thatA tremen-
dous securing Of the bowels was an e.
sential element Of cure In almost all dis
eases has fortunately for mankind been
pretty etIeclually explored. The intro
ductlon Of Hostetters Stomach BIttera,
nearly quarter Of q century ago, MAY, be
said TO have given the coup do ordc0 to
drastic purgatlon. The world has learned
from the beneficial effects produced BY
that admirable preparation, that one med.
lcino may embrace the three properties, q
laxative, and an Alternative; that the three
curative processes Of inauguration, puria-
cation and regulation may be compassed
at the same time by the operation Of q
single agreeable remedy, There are
sound, philosophical reasons for the re-
markable improvement which the Bitters
occasion IN the condition Of q deranged
and enfeebled system. This pure com6in.
alton OF vegetable juices not only strength.
ems the stomach, stimulates the appetite
and braces the nerves, but also imparts
tone and vigor to the secretory organs-ss
the skin, the liver, and the kidneys;-and
il the blood has become too thin and wat.
cry to nourish the body property, enrich
es and vitalizes that raw material" Of all
the solid portions Of the frame. At this
period Of the year, when intermittent fe-
vers, bilious disorders, stomach com
plants, and dysenteric and dlarrhGic all
ments are always more or less rile, coca.
sIonal doses OF tue Bitters will be found
the best safeguard against the atmos-
phCric conditions which generate them.
An accession Of general vigor is necessary
to enable the system to resist the NOR

which rise from the earth at this season,
and Of all the known invigorants, Hostel

The one.Man Power 10 Flnance

NrFOu Ine n. 1. EouL)
But whatever construction OF the law IL
relied upon to justify this issue of four
millions may also justify tho imitation of
the currency to the amount Of forty mil.
lions more. The possibility OF such q
measure isregarded with alarm by the best
and most prudent financial men Of tho
country, and 1t Is hoped that the question
will receive the attention Of Congress i'm.
mediately on Its reaSsembling.
But Objectionable as any addition to tho
paper money oil the country Is as iniu.
riOus to the public credit, damaging to all
our commercial interests, prompting 10
disastrous speculauons, and rendering the
return to specie payments more distant
and more difficult than ever, the manner
Of doing It Is still more alarming. All
confidence In the management OF our A.
nancial affairs will be forfeited II the
Treasury Department shall without due
notice to the public, without reason given,
but at It's own pleasure, secretly swell the
volume Of the currency, thus suddenly
changing the relations OF values and dis.
turbing the commerce Of the country.
Apart from the inevitable mischief which
must attend any such initiation, the power
to doitsecretly should not be trusted to any
one man, who may impart his intention to q
favored few. The knowledge four days be.
fore the event, that four millions Of legal
tenders were to DO issued last month, was
worth q fortune to any man in Wall
street. II was to put into his hands the
power to manipulate the stock and gold
market at his pleasure, and to gamble to
almost any extent on the rise and fall Of
prices, TO his own great profit and the loss
Of his neighbors. There has been no oct
Of the administration more calculated to
shake public confidence In the discretion
and financial ability Of Mr.. Boutwell,,
who, in the absence Of any explanation,
must take the responsibility. Though
the law may be on his side, and though
there may be no question Of the right to
increase the legal tender circulation to
four hundred millions, his course Is open
to animadversion, first, that he does not
zee that the country already has all the
paper money It needs, II 1t has not more
than is good for Il; and second, that he
should permit the power Of the govern.
ment, which should BIO q sacred trust, to
DO used Tor private purposes to the en-
richment OF favored individuals without
regard 10 the ruin it may inflict upon
others The demand, we think, will be
universal that Congress shall, on re.
assembling, at once curtail power that
has been abused. Even the Tines, which
claims to be the only administration paper
In this city, very justly and severely re.
Dukes this action Of the Secretary, and 1t
Is hardly likely, therefore, that 1t will
find defenders anywhere.

Triumphant for Twenty Years.
More than twenty years ago the MUSTANG
LENIMENT made It's debut in the West. Its
cures Of the various external diseases Of
horse and cattle, astonished the planters
and farmers Of the Mississippi and Ohio
Valleys, and demand for It sprung up
which nCcessitsted its manufacture on an
extensive scale. Soon the discovery was
made that 1t was q grand specific for
rheumatism, govt, neuralgia, earache,
toothAcho, and other external ailments OF
mankind. Th0n 1t was tried as q healing,
pain killing application, in cases of out
ward injury, such as cuts, bruises, burns,
spasm, Sc, and was found equally SER
viccable. The fame of the new remedy for
some Of the most painful ills that afflict
mankind and the lower animals, spread
rapidly, and MUSTANG IMMINENT soon
took rank in every State and Territory of
tho Union as STANDARD CURE.
$1,000 REWARD Is offered by the pro-
nrietor Of DR.. Plerce's Golden Medical
Discovery, for medicine that will equal
it in the cure Of all severe cases Of "Ltver
Complaint" and oil disease arising from
impurity Of the blood, as Eruptons,

A CORRESPONDENT, writing to the Gin.
cinnati Commercial from AndersonVille,
Georgia, gives a description of the old
prison grounds and the cemetery there.
The stockade is.fAlling to decay, and a
year or two more will effsce 1t entirely,
except from our hearts and memories.
Tho "dead line'-over which 90 many
brave soldiers passed to the freedom Of
eternity rather than endure the misery Of
life, can only be traced here and there,
for most OF the marks the last eight years
have obliterated. The thirty-Ayo wells
which the prisoners dug with cups and
spoons remain just as they were left.
And the wonderful spring, which was dis.
covered one morning after thunder
storm flowing down the hillside, still
yields It's sweet pure water as freely now
Us then. The cemetery, with Its thirteen
thousand graves, Is on the slope Of q beau.
tilul hill. Over the quiet spot young
trees give the cool shade which would
have been 80 gratefully sought by the
poor fellows whose lives were ended un-
der the scorchiug sun.

HoARDINa WooL.-The farmers in
Western Pennsylvania and Eastern Ohio
arc much troubled by the dizziness Of the
wool market. They did not sell when
the summer demand opened at 75c per
h., but held their stock for higher prices,
influenced by the course Of the market In
the previous year. Contrary TO their ex.
pcctations, prices have been falling all
summer. In those districts, No, l pulled
wool Is quoted at 40a45c.; American fnll-
blooded merino at 67a60c. The farmers,
unwilling TO sell ct these prices, have
stored away their wool In barns aud
warehouses, hoping for better times.-N
