The Wear and Tear OF Life.

The cares, anxieties and misfortunes OF life
have as much 10 do with shortening it as dis
ease. They are in fact the source OF many
ailments and physical disabilities. Nervous
weakness, dyspepsia, affections Of the liver,
disturbances Of the bowels, headache, hypo-
chondria and monomaDia arc among these dis
tressinS fruits. 1t is, therefore, OF great i'm
portance that persons whose minds are oppress-
ed with heavy business responsibilities, or ha-
raised by family troubles, or excited by specu-
lation, or perplexed by multiplicity Of enter
prises or in any way overtaxed or over orked,
should keep up their stamina by the daily use
Of wholesome tonic. Thousands Of persons
thus crcumstanced are enabled 10 bear up
against the difficulties in which they are invol-
we'd, and TO retain their strength, health and
mental clearness, by the regular use of Hostel
ter's Stomach Bitters. Diseases which are
prone TO attack the body when debilitated and
broken down by over-much brain work or ex-
hausting physical labor, are kept at bay by The
resistant power with which this Incompatible
tonic endows the nervous system and the vital
organs. At this season, when the heat IS cVaP-
Grating tho elements Of strength from every
pore, IN invigorant is absolutely essential TO
the safety and comfort Of the public, and is re-
CURED even by the moro robust il they desire 10
keep their athletic capabilities in status quo.
Hence course Of Hostettcr's Bitters Is partlc-
ularly useful at this period Of the year as de-
fence agalns, tho invisible disease alloat IN
sultry atmosphere 1t is the most potent OF all
preventive medicines, and for all comp alnts
which affect the stomach, the liver and tho
bowels and interfere with the perfect digestion
and assimilation Of food, it is the standard rom

Arrival Of the Rescued Seamen of the

Statement Of Myers, and Additional
Statement of TysOn-Thrill.
ing Recital.

ST. JOHNS, n. F., May 13.-Intense
excitement prevails here, owing to the
landing of the Tyson party this after
noon. Tyson and Myers remained on
board until they were supplied with
clothing by the American consul. All
look well, and are in good health and
spirits. Captain Hall died the fifteenth
day after returning from the first expe-
dition. He was paralyzed before his
death, and gradually sunk, dying at
twenty-five minutes past three in the
morning. Myers says he never gave up
the hope Of being rescued, but never
wants to get into so tight a corner again.
The party never could have reached
here but for the Esquimaux.
Tyson says that his statement sent to
the New York Herald last Friday con-
tanned facts. He can give nothing more
than his notes of adventure since Ieav-
ing the Polaris, and which we will not
publish now. He thinks that the party
with the PolaTis may get home even
should the vessel be destroyed. All on
board the POlaTis were well. The state
meuUs published some months since re-
specting relics of the Franklin expedi-
ton being sent home are untrue. There
have been no means of communicating
since the return of the Congress in 1871.
Myers makes the following statement:
CAPTAIN Hall returned from a sledge
exped. ton October 24th, and was taken
i'll on the same night. The next morn
ing ne found the LEFT side of his body
paralyzed. He remained in that condi-
lion for three days, when he got better.
In few days he relapsed and became
delirious and so continued until the
morning of November Sth, when he
died. When the party separated from
the ship it was quite dark, and the dark
ness continued for over two months,
with but a couple of hours of light daily.
We managed well so long as we had
snOw-hOuse to shelter US, but We had to
take boat and get on another ice-field,
which was too small for house, and we
were only kept warm by swallowing
seal-fat and blood and burning fat in
pans, the last of which also served as |
signal light at night. We have suffered
most since the night of the twenty-sec- 1
0nd Of April. The sea washed over the |
ice with great force. The women and /
children were put under the boat, while 1
the men were outside trying to keep it |
from being washed away. Some of the |
men We're washed off several times,
and after being rescued their feet and |
hands swelled and sickness set il, but 1
they recovered and are now almost /
entirely well.

of the present tonnage capacity of all
the railways, still the necessities Of the
country and the rapidly increasing COM
meree would not be met, and the de-
mand for more and cheaper facilities
would still exist. He showed by statis-
ties that by far the greatest increase in
population, agricultural and manu-
featuring products during the past
decade occurred in the west, and
that the present and future demand
for increased transportation facilities
is and would be in the Mississippi val
ley. He then entered into a comparison
of the cost of railroad, canal, sea, lake,
and river transportation, and showed
that river transportation is one hundred
per cent. cheaper than canal, and nearly
i've hundred per cent. cheaper than
railroad, and asked: Does not this fact
suggest a solution of the question under
discussion. The value of grain to the
producer is the price paid in Liverpool
less the cost of transit. He then showed
that grain can be laid down in Liver
pool UiG the Mississippi river and New
Orleans sixteen cents cheaper per bushel
than via New York, and that the COM
pany have the advantages of railroad
transit which could be fully used.
The exports from the Mississippi val
Vey would soon turn the balance of trade
in our favor, and gold would flow from
the old to the new, rather than, as now,
from the new to the old
world. He then stated why the
advantages of cheap transit on
the Mississippi river could not
be fully realized by explaining the OBJ |
structions at the mouth, the inadequacy |
OF water on the bar, ETC., and cited the |
fact that during March and April Just |
past nearly fifty vessels were obliged to |
anchor off the mouth of the river, and |
wait nearly three weeks for totally
inadequate government dredging-boat |
to cut a channel through this bar before
these could reach the deep water of the
river. Let this obstruction be removed |
and the Mississippi river will give to the /
oceans tonnage equal to that of |
the entire remainder of the world. |
Besides, less than half the amount of |
money worse than wasted above the |
amount requisite to subsidize a single |
Pacific railroad would give to the Mis-
sissippi river depth of water sufficient |
to allow a vessel constructed for the
purpose to sail from Liverpool to st.
Paul. If this were accomplished |
wheat could be transported from the
Mississippi valley to Liverpool eight |
cents per bushel cheaper than from the
Baltic grain-raising regions, and |
eighteen cents cheaper than from the |
Black sea. Mr.. Stanard was listened to |
very attentively and frequently ap-
plauded.
