the editor had many columns at his disposal
which should have been filed with paying
advertisements, but Which, owing to the pen
uriousness of the non-advertising population
of Dundee, were not 80 occupied, he took oc-
casion to fill the vacant space with earnest and
unequivocal expressions of his opinion In re-
gard to the place and its inhabitants. Ills
description of Dundee is hardly calculated to
attract immigration to that particular part
of Kane County. He calls it Chicago ourn-
ed into crust by the fires of misery; San
Francisco shocked by the earthquakes
of meanuess into grabbing after pennies
and cold victuals; and declares that II Gaorl-
els horn is ever heard within its precincts its
sound will be drowned out by the elamors OF
its hungry people thinking it an Invitation 10

own trials while endeavorlng to escape star
walton, and recites the melancholy experience
of some of bis predecessors who had been de-
luded by fair promises into the disastrous ex-
pertinent of publishing newspaper sin this
foul graveyard" as warning to printers who
may hereafter be enticed to bury their. talent
in so unpromislng field. And finally, with
sardonic glee he directs the attention OF his
readers to cut which he tells them repre-
sents the Identical train of cars in which ne
intends to leave for any place on the known
earth which will take him cut of the sight OF
the dead things that walk the streets of Dun

his disgust, he did not walt to observe the

Hostetter's Bitters.
neFoUR MILLIONS OF INVALID

~FOUR MILLIONS OF INVALIDS.
At the lowest computation there are never less
than four millions OF invalids In the United
States or this number probably more tnan
ihree.dfths have neglected the ordinary precau'
tions necessary for the preservation OF health,
and are suffering the punishment due 70 tneir
carelessness. II the multitudes who are now
AFFLICTED with blllousness, indigestion, rheuma-
tism, intermittent fever, irregularities OF the
bowels, general debility, nervous disorders, &C.,
had, at the very frat symptoms OF indispo8ition,
inVigorated, regulated and purified their syE TENS
with HOSTETrER'S STOMACH BITTERS, two
thirds Of them would at this moment be perform
ing the active duties OF life, unannoyed BY any
siment Of the body or tho mind.
This assertion is made adVsedly. 1t Is rounded
on experience, and is borne out by the testimony
OF countless host OF Witnesses, whose attesta'
tions cover almost every variety Of disease, and
extend over a period Of about twenty years. of
every thousand persons who take the Bitters, as
q preventive OF the complaints above enumera-
ted, seveneighths escaped them entirely; and
OF every Thousand who are actually attacked, and
use the great Vegetable Tonic as remedy, three
fsurths are radically cured. These are not hap
hazard assertions, but statistical facts. They
are based upon the results Of inquiries made by
more than fifty Thousand persons In various
parts Of the country, and upon the letters OF
prominent citizens Of every State, 1t might al.
most be said. Of every county in the Union.

vannah, Macon, Atlanta, Augusta, and even
Columbia, would note the contrast and say
that Charleston does not prosper. 1t is not
denied that you have made important steps
towards recovering your ante bellu"' status
but the other Southern towns have done
much more than that, they do more business
now than they did before the war. And the
reason Of it is this: They do not hide their
light under bushel. They send their drum
mers wherever it is possible for their trade to
reach; they patronize every. little country
newspaper within the same scope; they I'LL
their own city papers with announcements
of their business, and they make it to the in
terest OF their railroad companies to bring
freight to them and carry freight from them
on advantageous terms. Why, sir, have
been on more than one occasion In large
jobbing houses in Charleston and seen a
country editor come in and ask for an adVer-
tisement. Sometimes they refused and some
times they gave it as favor, but the inyari-
able accompanying remark was Everybody
knows Us & Co.; there is no use Tor us 70
ADVERTISE The truth probably was that
nine-tenths OF the country firms had never
heard of us & Co., and one-halt the re-
naming tenth only know the name as a ira
dition of their fathers. And how in the
word are men who do not already trade with
Charleston to know what facilities the city
has for business? To judge by the Charles
ton papers the business is confined TO auc-
tioneers and retail dealers; to judge by an
Augusta paper that I picked up the other
day the jobbing trade Of Charleston is con-
fined to one hardware house, and to Judge
by the country papers Charleston hardly has
any business at all except making and SELL
ing commercial manures. There is one great
railroad and steamship advertisements that I
see very often, in which the name OF Charles
ton figures very extensively, but it is only as
a place through which freight goes to and
from New York, Philadelphia and Baltimore.
So far as the press is concerned, sir, Charles
ton as depot OF trade is unrepresented.
And as to the other means OF extending
trade, drummers, circulars, &C., they are
confined to the old beaten track. There are
some men in Charleston, sir, who understand
pushing business, and they are making
money !; but so long as the business men as a
class are satisfied to do their present limited
business, without effort for more, your c''y
will neuer prosper"

How Dogs I'm the Hall Arctic Ex.
pedisi0n Saved Human Lives,

Christmas Day was a gala day on
board the Polaris. The good ship was
hemmed in by heavy field of ice, but
the weather was as pleasant as an Ital-
ian spring day. The Esquimaux and
the. dogs which Captain Hall procured
at st. Johns were brought into requisi
ton, and . seal hunt was proposed as
the object of the day. The dogs were
lowered to the ice in boat from the
dayits, and were tackled to low sledges
by the Esquimaux. Captain Hall says
that the sagacity and tractableness of
these animals was remarkable. After
half an hours stretch gallop over the
heavy ice, the painting dogs suddenly
drew up, and yelled and paved the sur
face. One of the Esquimaux, the oldest
Of the lot,a enee interpreted the warning
of the dogs, and quick as lightning he
bounded from his seat and turned the
dogs heads toward the ship.
5 In half the time it took to reach the
distance they had travelled from the Po
laris, the eager dogs pulled up beside
: the hull. Around tae horizon then there
were murky clouds assembling, and the
atmosphere felt misty and bleak With
, in an hour after the warning of the sa-
gacious animals, the ice had broken up
and the Polaris was separated from it
by stormy channel nearly half mile
in width. Had the seal hunting party
fulfilled their intention of urging on the
the dogs and keeping up the sport un-
moonlight, few of them would have
survived the excursion. Upon another
occasion these valuable dogs acted as
settlers in scenting out large number
of seals which would have probably
passed the notice of the Indians them
selves. On that day they shot over
forty seals and brought back to the ship
the .'flippers' or paws of several old
harps, which were given to the cooks
charge, and proved to be rare and
palatable relish. ". Y. Times.
