EnleVclOpeI VigOr.

The feeble and debiltated usually fam
cy they are in more hopeless condition
than they usually are. The resources of
nature are not easily exhausted. Even
when strength and appetite fail, when
the eyes are heavy and ustrelcss, the com
pleXion pallid, the nerves tremulous, the
body attenuated, and the mind depressed, g,
there is generally II reserve Of latent pow
er behind such palpabc evidences of
weakness. Various modes of treatment
are resorted to BY physicians in the hope
OF developing and rendering available
this store OF sleeping vitality, but the
surest, and indeed the only thoroughly
safe and reliable means of awakening the
dormant energies of the system is a course
OF Hostettcr's Stomach Bitters. Electric
ity, shower baths, the flesh brush, sea
bathing, ETC., may be well enough in
their way, as auXilaries, but they do not
reach the source oil the evil. All physi-
cal debility proceeds either from a de-
rangement oi the functions OF the assimi-
lating, secretive and vital organs. or from
II sluggish constitution. In either case,
and in cases where both causes exist, the
Bitters will invariably produce an i'm
mediate and salutary change in the con-
dition of the patient, and eventually ef-
feet complete cure. None OF the dan
gerous alkaloids, too often administered
as tonics, can be otherwise than delete
rious under such circumstances, and to
give mercury is positively criminal. The
direct effect Of the great vegetable sps-
cifc will be manifested in an improved
appetite, more cheerful frame OF mind,
a gradual return Of strength, an increase
Of flesh, and Il healthier complexion.
Meanwhile, however, the constitution, if
inert and feeble, will have been reused
and renovated by the subtitle elements of
invigoration contained in the Bttcrs.

A CowARDLY AND BRUTAL ATTEMPT
AT MURDER.-We give the particulars
of one of the most eowardly attempts at
murder for the purpose, undoubtedly, OF
robbery, which has come under our notice
for long time. Henry Voge and Louis
Kopp, both Germans, were working at
Gerke's Ranch on Deer Creek, near Te-
hama, and had each earned about $40.
kopp then represented to Voge that he
had claim and cabin up in this county
where he could make good wages, and
invited Voge to come up and go into part
ncrship with him. The offer was accepted
and they took the train to Redding, from
which point they started across the noun
tains to this county on foot. They reached
John Arms place on Monday in the after
noon-Arn suggested to them that they
had better stay over night, but upon Kopp
representing that they were only few
miles from his cabin and that they had
better keep on to it that night, they started
on again. They reached Arms old place
on Rush Creek, when Kopp told Vogc
that there was the cabin, and they went
into one of the houses. In the morning
when Voge awoke, Kopp was out of
doors when he he came in Vogc asked
him if he was coming to bed again, to
which he answered that he was not, that
he was not well and would stay up. Voge
then drew the blankets around him and
went to sleep again. He was aroused by
what seemed to him like pistol shot, but
was probably a blow from a billet of
wood. lie sprang to his feet, when Kopp
continued striking him on the head and
legs and feet, trying to cripple him so he
could not get away. Nogc told him not
TO kill him; to take his money and CO.
but Kopp said q he must go on," mean
ing probably that he must kill him now
that he had commenced. In the struggle
they became little separated, when
Vogc dartcd out of the open door and ran
like n deer down the creek. He was fol-
lowed by Kopp for some distance but the
latter finally gave up the chase, and Voge
reached Woods ranch AZ miles below,
nearly exhausted. He had no clothing
on but shirt when he reached there.
The Messrs, Wood supplied him with
clothes, htched up n team and brought
him to town, where he is being treated
by DR.. Montague. He has four scalp
wounds and his feet and legs are badly
bruised. When the team reached the
old Arm place, Wood went into the house
and found bundle of clothing, etc, be
longing to Vogc, but his money, watch
and revolver had been carried oil.
Kopp is described 20 US rs n middle
sized man, light hair inclined to be curly
blue eyes, and a scar over one eye, and
was dressed in dark or black cothes.-
Deputy Sheriff Philbrook is in pursuit of
him and it is devoutly to be hoped that
he will be caught and made to pay the
penalty Of his cowardly attempt. He
has worked in this county before and is
we'll known to several of our citizens. -
Ills victim is but boy in years, and
fears are entertained that bis injuries
may be more serious than was at first
supposed.
