If ga stitch in time saves nine" it is
eouallyacertain that q dose of healthy
tonic like Hostetter's Stomach Bitters taken
at this inclemeut season of the year may
save many an unpleasant twinge. A dose,
however, is not sufficient. The system
should be thoroughly charged with this
genial vegetable stimulant and invigorant.
Commence taking it with the commence
ment of the atmospheric changes which
distinguish the winter from the autumn.
Thereby YOU will avoid those disturbances
of the digestive and seeretive organs, and
those painful diseases of the muscles and
the nerves of sensation, which often render
the period of the year which should be the
merriest, a season of penance and disquiet-
ude. The extraordinary vigor and regu-
larity which this exhilirating restorative
imparts to the most important functions of
the body, render iG an invaluable remedy
for nervous debility, constipation, indiges-
ton, torpidity OF the liver, and Intermittent
feVers.

Latest Fall STYLES,

Certainly the ladies of our city will be
pleased to learn of the remarkably low
rates at which Robinson & Stevens propose
to offer their new and fashionable lines of
dress goods.
They have been famous for years for
keeping in this department the latest styles
and the most beautiful fabrics. The assort-
ment this season embraces elegant lines of
pongee silks, evening silks, black silks,
satins, camefs hair redingotes, mohairs,
dragonals, empress cloths, cashmeres, ETC.,
and especially an elegant stock of royal
standard black alpacas, with silk fringes,
beaded trimming, silk velvets, silk veIours,
trimming silks and all other trimmings in
great variety.
We commend their liberal course, and
trust they may reap much appreciation
from it. oe30-2w

EDITORS CLARION:
Hon. James L. Alcorn, candidate for Gov
ernor, addressed the citizens of Attala
county at the Court House, in Kisciusko, to-
day. His speech was - mastery effort in
vindicatiOn of himself and the course he
has pursued in taking issue with men who
seek to obtain the control of the State, in
order to further their own selfish ends He
denounced in unsparing terms the corrup-
tions of French, Warner, Gibbs. & Co, and
declared that they were enemies of the
State and its people. The Pearl River Nav
igation scheme and the railroad swindle
were exposed and laid bare, and the man
ner in which the secret s. rviee fund had
been disbursed and how it thwarted the
schemes of the corruptionists, were fully
explained.
Gen. Ames was then portrayed in his true
colors. A nonresident of the State, having
no sympathy with the people, no interests
in common with them, the associate of men
who had been proven to be corrupt, he was
not the man to De placed in the gubernato-
rial chair by the people of Mississippi, whom
he had denounced in the Senate of the L. S.
as rebellious aud Enthusiastically.
The speech had an excellent effect here,
and was listened to with great attention,
the audience, every now and then, as a tel
ling point was made, breaking out in rap
turous applause.
Put down Alfalfa as all right for the ode
cent side" KOsCIUsKo.
