chiefly upon the Sympathetic Nerves that
the stimulating qualities Of the Bitters are
brought to bear. Those Nerves regulate
the functions Of the digestive system. The

THE NEW GOVERNOR OF WISCON-
SIN.

Hon. William R. Taylor, the Cove
nor elect of Wisconsin, is a man about
fifty-fve years of age. He is native
of New England, but has resided for
over twenty-five years in Dane County,
Wisconsin. During all that timey he
has cultivated large farm in the town
of Cottage Grove, about six miles from
Madison. Pursuing this occupation with
unremitting industry and with the thrift
ty habits that vindicate his nativity, he
has prospered in high degree. and is
the possessor of an Independent fortune.
He has served in both branches Of the
Legislature, is one of the active Trustees
of the insane hospital and is President
of the State Agricultural Society. In
all of these positions he has shown great
capacity for public affairs, and has af-
forded abundant assurance that his ad-
ministration will be characterized by
rigid economy and absolute integrity.
Mr.. Taylor was Democrat Of the old
school, and during the war did not es-
cape the appellation of "copperhead ,"
But he became granger very soon after
the inception of that movement, is mas
ter of local grange, and was one of the
first to advise the abandonment of the
Democratic cadaver, and the organiza-
tion of party on new and reformed
basis. In person, he is man of large
and rather unwieldly frame, with a COM
plexion bronzed by long series of har-
vest suns, and with hands that earned
their callous long before the farmers
movement made plough-handles fashion
able. Doubtless he will be something
less than handsome figure head for the
Badger State, but he is quite certain to
be very much more than fgure-head.

GREAT RAILROAD SpEED.-The Schen-

1.-The New York Central and Hudson
River pay car left Syracuse at 4:0S
o'clock yesterday afternoon, and arrived
in this city at sos o'clock last evening,
making the distance, AT 1-2 miles, in
four hours, including stoppage of ten
minutes ut Utica to change engines, and
eight minutes at Little Falls The dis
tance from Little Falls to St. townsville,
3-4 miles, was run in seven minutes. :"
This is doubtless very great speed, but
suppose it had ended in a very great

The SLAUGHTER WHICH DAILY SUs-
TAINs Us.-When we ride we sit upon
the skin of the pig; when we walk we
tread upon the skin Of the bullock; we
wear the skin of the kid upon our hands,
and the fleece Of the sheep upon our
backs. More than half the world are
human beings in sleeps clothing. We
eat the flesh of some creatures, Of some
we drink the milk, upon others we are
dependent for the cultivation of the soil
and if it is pain to us to suffer hunger
and cold, we should be scrupulous to
avoid inficting wanton misery upon the
animals by means of which we are warm
ed and fed.
