Doctors disagree. zach school of medicine has
its own theories and as these theories differ wide
" il Is clear that few if any of them can be right
But If medical men cannot agree upon any theory
or system of practice the public find no difficulty
in agreeing as 10 notorious matters Of fact. For
instance, they have observed for many years that
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters universally cure dys-
pepS3a constipation, rheumatism, bliousness, ner-
vous debility, and many other diseases which the
prescriptions of the pharmacOpseIa dc not and can
not cure; and they know therefore that there can
be no mistake about it. On this point they firm
and positive. They take their tand incontrO-
vertibIe facts and they state to one another YER
bslIy, and sometimes by letter, what they know
about relieving and preventing sickness with the
standard vegetable tonic and alterate Of America.
Here, then, the.lnvalId has guarantee OF value
that can be relied upon, viz: the sober judgment
of the public After twenty yea observation
and reelection, the American people pronounce
Ritters the best inVigOTating and regu
lEting medicine at their command, and give evil
dence Of the faith that is in them by purchasing
Of 1t than of any ether advertised medicine
manufactured on this continent. A large number
other points in therapeutics, admit the extraor

Money.

The dollar that represents a carnal
qualification, an indulgence, a sin, is
worse than valueless. Money has only
relative and representative value. Its
worth consists in what it viii procure.
1t may purchase for its possessora curse
as well as blessing. If invested in
intelligence, knowledge, culture; in
doing good; in the acquisition of
spiritual treasures, it rises far above
par in real value and cannot be APP
preciated by any worldly standard.
But how much money goes off in smoke
how much is used to purchase shame
how much is spent in painful and fatal
experiments with the wages of vice and
the Illicit charms of transgression, for
which there returns to the soul al
last only such eompensations as reInorse,
woe, pain and death

positors. This is startling news to all citizens

The ALABAMA CLAIMS AWARD DEBATED IN
THE ENGLISH PARLIANENT.-The Alabama
claims award of the Geneva Court of Arbitra-
ton has been made the subject of debate in
the British Parliament on motion of the oppo-
sition represented by Mr.. Claiborne Hardy.
The Disrnei party does not impugn the
integrity of the arbitrators, nor object
vehemently to the payment Of the
American bill; but it's members oppose
the principle of international law which
was conceived in the Treaty of Washington
and matured and adopted rs On essen
tial Of settlement ct Geneva. This principle
is set forth in the three rules of the Treaty OF
Washington, which we reproduce in the
HERALD to-day. The British Cabinet defends
it on broad grounds, and it is to be hoped that
the ministerial differences as to its operation
in the future between Great Britain and the
United States may be realized. Mr.. Disraeli
and Premier Gladstone joined in the express
sioa of wish that the Cabinets in London
and Washington may arrive at speedy and
definite understanding on the subject so that
they will submit the whole matter and the
rules to the other Powers for their considera-
ton. Downing Street appears to be inclined
to hurry up the people in Washington.

THE OswEoo Palladium announces that mys-
terious rumors come from Albany OF o new
political combination. The great mystery is
that these mysterious rumors' are not more
numerous than they are. Some people in
Albany have no other occupation than to
initiate paper balloons with idle gossip and set
them afloat. They keep sailing on until they
are pricked by new rumor or burst into thin
air of their own volition.

THE MoDoCs IN THE LAVA BEDS occupy o

According to our special despatch, published
in the HERALD to-day General Candy has so
planted the United States troops and the
howitzers at his command that Jack will
neither be able to escape nor organize raids on
the settlers in the neighborhood. The Indian
camp is to be completely surrounded. The
movements of the soldiers are somewhat
mysterious, but enough is known to venture the
opinion that within the next few days Jack
viii either have to come to terms or fight.

The British Parliamentary Crisis
| Ended-AIr. Gladstone and HIS Col
leagues Again In Once.
For the present the Cabinet crisis is ended
IL is undeniable that Mr.. Gladstone has won q
greater victory than if he had been successful
In carrying through his Irish University bill
II has long been an established custom in the
British Parliament that the opposition, when
successful in voting down the party in
power, should accept the consequence of
their own acts and proceed to form Minis
try. Mr. Gladstone, too proud spirited to re-
main in Office on mere sufEerance, was bat fol-
lowing established usage when he resigned the
seals of Office into the hands of the Queen If
Mr.. Disraeli did not foresee the results of his
policy of opposition the fault is his own. The
weakness of the tory party has not in many
years been so emphatically confessed. Mr..
Gladstone has just cause to be proud of the
course Of conduct which he followed and of
the position in which he again finds himself.
In spite of all this, however, it is not unjust to
say that Mr.. Gladstons's Irish Cancellation
policy has resulted in failure. For four years
he has steadily labored for the removal of
ancient abuses in the laws and institutions of
Ireland What is to be the fate of the Irish
University bill we know not. But Mr. Glad
stone must be fully convinced that if Ireland
is to be conciliated and made contented under
English rule he must either make larger con-
cessions or adopt q different course of conduct.
Much as he has done Ireland is not satisfied;
Ireland is not contented. When the Irish
people themselves have voted against his Uni
versity measure it is not to be wondered at
that it does not command the support of the
English tories. When Mr.. Gladstone came
into power after the last general cleo
ton he could count with confidence
on faithful majority amounting almost to
one hundred. 1t was this majority which
enabled him to carry with so much ease his
former measures of reform. The sudden
break down proves that his Irish University
bill is not popular; but it proves more. 1t
proves that from some cause or other
he has, to some extent, lost his control of
the House of Commons, and the presumption
is that the altered sentiment of the peoples
House is but reflection of the altered senti-
ment of the country.
What course Ministers may now follow it
is difficult to foresee. If it is the opinion of
the tory leaders, as Mr.. Disraei says, that
there is no necessity for dissolution, it is but
little likely that Mr.. Gladstone and his friends
will voluntarily run any such risk as is i'm
piled in an appeal to the people. It is not at
all improbable that for the present session Ire
land will be let alone, and that the time will
be devoted to the consideration of other meas
ures of greater interest to the great body of
the people. Mr.. Gladstone, however, is more
OF less bound to prosecute the work which he
has begun, and it remains to be seen whether
he will halt before he crowns the edifce of
Irish reform, to which, for four consecutive
years, he has SO laboriously devoted his time
and his energies.
