want OF VITALITY,

fla deficiency of vital oncrSyis not dis
ease in itself, it is n condition Wiicli lays the
system open to the attacks of nj conceivable
maladies. Night and day we arr surrounded
more or less by dclet2rious influences. No
atmosphere is entirely pure, no water utterly
free nom injurious PARTICLES, while in many
localities both are positively unwiOleSonc.
What defense has the weak, langull system,
in which the vital principle is deficient or
dormant, against any of the moT,id influ-
ences which produce epidemic AMI other dis
eases? None whatever. There II no safety
in artificial reinforcement Hosciter'S Sto-
mach Bitters have, beyond all question, II
vitaljzing effect. If the nervous brces OF the
body haYc been recllcssly hded in eX-
haustipg physical or mental labor, or dissi-
pated in the influences of n "f9t life" this
powerful vegetable tonic and corrective will
restore them. If the defective vitality is II
constitutional evil it can be rfmedied to n
great extent by this wondcfuJ inNi GRANT.
AT q season of the year when thn air Is more
or less imprcguated with the setis of periodic
feyers il Is especially desirable tbatthe diges-
ton should be perfect the haIf of Dody reg
ular, the liver active, the blood pure, and the
protection sgainst all disorders, and they are
projections which the Bitq,rs are bc:ier
adapted than any other medicinal agent to
promote and secure. See to 1, however, that
no imitation or counterfeit Bsubstituted for
the genuine article, ana LEI all VINO value
health and have an antipatly 10 poison be-
ware of the local bitters made from con-
demned drugs and Wiley Jtultentsd alco-
hol which have sprung ~ like unwhole-
syme fungi all over the laIt.

That education is not neglected in
some parts of the Ottoman Empire,
this large book will prove. 1t is sent
from the school of "Our Lady of Zion,
in Constantinoplc," is written princi-
pally in French, and demonstrates
their system of teaching. There are
fine watcr-color maps, and problems in
arithmetic most neatly worked out.
The sciences are beautifully illustrated
in water-color drawings of animals,
birds and flowers, and domestic econ
omy in drawings of household uten-
sis. A description of Constantinople
as it appears when approached from
the sea, is written in Latin, German,
French, American and English, and
the chirography is exquisite. An
illuminated title page of one of
Beethoven's sonitas, and some beauti
full landscapes in water colors, deserve
especial notice, rs do also some pencil
drawings by Nelida Aliothy.
The back of the book is filled with
specimens of nccdlework, embroidery
and laces. But you are tired, and we
will now go out into the sunshine and
take one of those chairs and rest, and
listen to Strauss orchestra, discoursing
sweet music, and as we listen half

les, uttered his criticisms clothed in
fluting shirts and black leggings.

Power TO Dictate a Successor.

The opposition Journals are laboring
under the hallUcnation that President
of this republic can. at will, either Sc
cure his own denomination or dictate
his successor. No current assumption
has less support in history or reason.
The truth of this absurd declaration the
authors attempt to sustain by the sup
position that the Presidents patronage
is SO enormous that he can pack conven-
tons at viii by the offer of positions of
profit and honor. But they lose sight of
the equally patent fact that there are
always, Mt least, hundred of appli-
cants for each desirable station that
hut one can receive the prize. and the
ninety-nine must be disappointed. The
one, it may be inferred. might labor for
the renomination of his chief but the
ninety-nine, if influenced by desire for
official preferment, would work as zeal
ously for q change. None are so blind
as not to perceive that a new President
would have as much power to reward
friends as the old incumbent, and would
probably be more free from embarrass-
mcnt in making changes. History de-
monstratcs the correctness of this con-
elusion.
. .r. II Is. .SIlcTllly COLCIQGh-. II - true,
that President Jackson dictated his own
successor ; but it is equally true that
Presidents Polk, Fillmore, Pierce, Bu-
chanan, and johnson utterly failed in

Those who urge such fallacy are
monarchists at heart, and have no con
fidenee in the intelligence and integrity
