MISCELLA NEOUS.
why Endure what is CurabIe ?

"What can't be cured must be en-
dured," says the proverb; but Indigestion
can be cured, and therefore it is the
merest stupidity to endure it. Dyspep-
tics have certainly right to continue
dyspeptics to the end of their days if they
choose, but as it is not supposed that any
rational being prefers physical torment
to ease and health, the probability is that
if all sufferers from indigestion were con-
vinced that an absolute, infallible remedy
for their complaint existed, they would
with one accord resort to it. We most
emphatically declare that such reme-
dy does exist, and that its name is Hos
letters Stomach Bitters. The record of
its success extends over period of more
than twenty years, and it is fearlessly al
legged that during the whole ef that time
it has never Jailed to afford permanent
relief in any disorder or arrangement of
the stomach that was not organic, malig-
nant, and incurabe. The testimonials
that go to establish this important fact
can be counted by the thousand. Stom-
ach complaints that had been aggravated
by a total disregard of all dietary rules,
and intensified and rendered chronic by
medicinal treatment or drastic purgation,
have in hundreds of instances been cured
within three months by the systematic
use of this celebrated stomachic and al
terative. 1t should be remem bered that
weakness of the digestive organs involves
many other ailments. Biliousnes, head
ache, nervous debility, spasm, palpitation
of the heart, rush of blood to the head
nausea, vertigo, and sleeplessness are
among its concomitants and results and
for all these the great vegetable tonic is
a specific. 1t acts first upon the stomach,
and through the stomach upon the secre-
tory and nervous systems and the bowels,
its general effect being always genial and
beniiicent. 2-feb.

THE SHELTERED PIER.

A great deal of cxaggeration in several
published reports has given the impression
that the stone pier at the Battery had been
practically destroyed by being run into by the
City of Limerick. The facts are that it was
not the pier which was struck, but the bulk
head, which is simply a shell of stone filled
in with sand, and only one corner of this was
shattered. A few thousand dollars will repair
it, and the Steamship Company has given
directions to the Dock Commissioners to re-
pair it at the COmpany's cost.
The accident, which it is clear now was the
result of ignorance on the part of the pilot,
has served to show the strength rather than
the weakness of this work, the initial one OF
a series of docks to extend eventually for
forty miles along the water front of the city.
The resistance offered by the pier head is
easily computed. curious calculation fixes
the displacement of the City of Limerick at
1000 tons, and her rate at the time of the ac-
cident at three knots an hour, or about five
feet a second. This velocity, calculated for
body of 1000 tons, is equal to $500 900 pounds
raised one foot, which the formula gives as
the measure of the blow. Such blow would
have carried the vessel entirely through two
or three wooden piers. As it was, the stones
which were struck by the bow of the vessel
were driven into the sand filling about three
foot. four of the granite blocks were broken,
and about twenty others displaced but not
thrown into the water, and the cemented joints
fractured.
The pier itself which adjoins the bullkhead
il filled in with cement blocks. The effect of
the same blow on this part of the work would
have been hardly perceptible, except, perhaps,
on board the vessel. The question raised by
the accidental experiment, and now agitated,
is-would it not be cheaper to fill in these
piers with cement, or asphalt, or build them
entirely of such tenacious stuff as the latter
material 1t is a question already under dis
cussion by the engineers and economists.
