The Shield of Health,

Debility opens the door to di sease. Nor is this
all. When the door has been opened and the ter
rible intruder has entered, physical prostration

keep it barred; or, if the enemy has already Sc
cured foothold rally the strength of the system
and assist nature to drive out the of health and
life. The means of doing this is within every ones
reach. Brace up the physique with Hostetters
Stomach Bitters when there are elements in the
air you breathe or the water you drink that are
morbid and unwho1esome. This is barring the
door. Epidemics and endemics will assail in vain
the living fortress that is thus protected 1t may
laugh siege to scorn.' But if this precautionary
measure has been neglected, the seeds of disease
can be elected by the same potent vegetable agent
that would, if taken earlier, have prevented their
obtaining an entrance into the system The slim
ulating, invigorating, regulating and purifying
properties of this vital elixir render it a most
formidable antagonist of all facilitating disorders
The rapidity and certainty with which it van

A paragraph in the recent proceed
ings of the Common Council sef New
York city furnishes an admirable illus
tration of the way things are too often
done in that as well assother municipal
bodies. So @stS . =
Some two years since, through the.
efforts of certain learned antiquarians
and enthusiastic explorers of the dusty
past, the Council authorized the prepare
ton of Histoyof New Amsterdam. |"
This work was intended to perpetuate in
graceful form the authentic chronicles
of Manhattan, from the advent of the
first Indian dswn through the reign OF
the illustrious Dutch dynasty, to period
within the memory of the youngest IN
habitant. a.
The achievements of the noble red
man, the doings of the doughty Holland
ers, and the deviltries of their modern
successors, were to be set forth in ele-
CANT English and embelhshed by choicest
specimens of the topographic and en-
grayer's art It was supposed that the
whole could be embraced in book not
much larger than the Bible, and within
this space ample justice might be done
to the ancestors, antecedents and present
population of New York. So the Coun-
Gil ordered its historian laureate to pro-
coed with his labor of love, and resolved
to distribute five thousand copies Of the
work among those benighted Christians
on both sides of the Atlantic who knew
little and cared less about the annals of
Gotham. .c
For period of twenty-four months
the 90 History OF New Amsterdam" has
been in process of incubation, and would
probably have been completed by the
close of the nineteenth century had not
an application for funds revealed the
magnitude and expense of the task
This revelation shows that the aforesaid
history will fill from forty to sixty octave
volumes, each containing several hun
bred pages, and will cost not far from
$2,000,000 The aldermanic fathers
were naturally shocked at the proposition
that the story of the rise and progress of
New Amsterdam. would require nearly
ten times as fpuch printed matter as
Gibbons Decline and Fall of the Ro-
man Empire, and necessitate an outlay
twenty times greater than the construc-
ton of Gibbons grand monument in

reckless in the expenditure of money,
but these figures were too heavy even
for their tough financial sromachs. They
ordered the job to stop at once, in spite
of the vigorous protest of the Historical
Society, and there is no Immediate pros
pect of its resumption. Therefore, I'M

pirate 81, 900, 900 for the New Amsterdam

ADDING Poison TO PoIsoN.-There is
no disease in which the blood is not
more or less impregnated with unwhole-
some matter, and the direct, inevitable
effect of all preparations containing
spirituous excitants is to increase the
volume of poison in the veins, and
thereby aggravate and prolong the NAL
ady. Hence it is that dyspepsia, bilious
fever, eholera-morbus, lung complaints,
govt, dropsy, rheumatism, nervous dis
orders, and cases of general and local
debility, originally mild in type, are fire.
quently rendered chronic and dangerous
by dosing the sufferers with the alcoholic
=bitters advertised as medicinal stimu-
lants. As a counterblast to the cdnards
put forth by the proprietors of those
pernicious compounds, the plain, honest,
philosophical statements of DIR. JOSEPH
WALLER, relative to the nature and
effects of his CALIFORNIA VINEGAR BIr-
TIERS, are doing world of good. He
has opened the eyes of the public to the
important fact that a pure vegetable
tonic and Alternative, unpolluted by alco-
hol, if not an absolute specific for every
variety of disease, is the nearest approach
to it yet attained. His VINEGAR BITTERs
are unquestionably working such won
ders IN affections of the stomach, bowels,
nervous and muscular systems, and the
glands and respiratory organs Com.

The Temperance Movement in Massa-
chusettS.

By our friends abroad prohibition is
viewed as an experiment. States West,
South, and beyond the ocean ask, Glow
does it work ? Is it perfect success in
Massachusetts, %
The lastTquestion can be answered in
one word no. It is not a perfect sue
cess. We have several hundreds of
towns and cities, and they have shown
every degree of result, from great sue
cess to failure What then has been the
result in the State as a whole? No an
swer is entitled to so much weight
as that which comes officially from the
representatives of the people. In re-
cent vote the House declared for the
prohibition of the beer traffic, as well as
the spirit traffic, by'a vote of AS to 70,
and the Senate by vote of "a to H.
Their vote is their answer to the ques-
ton. .p-a r-r-
AS against license, prohibition has no
longer anything to fear. With us the
license is obsolete. 1t is nevertheless
true that much of the battle is yet to be
fought. The traffic is not yet over
thrown. The liquor question will en-
ter largely into the issues of the next
election. But license will not be named
No such thing as a license flag will be
hoisted. The whole effort of the traffic
will be to find, some trick, device, or
cover under which it can evade the law,
or embarrass its execution. Prohibition
has yet much to fear from these indi-
rect means, but nothing whatever from
open, avowed opposition. Our friends
abroad may rest assured that, although
side issues remain, the main question as
to the policy of Massachusetts is irrev-
vocably Standardization News.

where the land becomes richer instead
of poorer from cultivation, where a
farmer can realize snug fortune in a
few years, favored with climate which

any and superior to most Others, with
minerals of every class Astounding in the

mand for all products greater than the
supply; and while, on the other hand,
there are thousands of farmers in other
parts who labor hard from one years
end to the other to "make both ends
