CONSTITUTIONAL REFORM.

The following are tho resolutions adopted ct the recent meeting of the Constitutional Reform Association in New Haven:
 Where's. More than half century has passed since the sovereign people of this State have had an opportunity of eIecting delegases to convention for the purposes ofhGving submitted to them a constitu- ton. and
 Where's. The growth and distribution of population has developed most mark ed and increasing inequality in our system cf representation, and
 Whereas. Experience has proved that powers justly belonging to the executive xhc1ld not be conferred on the legislative department, and
 Whersss. We believe that various changes which may be deemed desirable cannot bs satisfactorily made and adjust ei to each other without such opportuni- tSes for conference and comparison of views. as can only be afforded by 8 con- vezsi0a of delegates of the people, spec tally chosen for that particular purpose, and
 Where's. It would be improper and znwisa for the friends of constitutional rsfogz to give their sufrsges to those who wSn ase thesr political power to defeat S2cA reform, be 1t
 Ess0SUcl. That the members of this as- soS<2ti0a vll only cast their votes for x2eA candidates, for members of the gen. srMl assezhlr. governor and lieutenant governor, &s arc distinctly in favor of the pass2ge of q law providing for the calling CG co1ssltuts0a2l convention.

surely and effectually control them. The testimony of our best citi- zens, of all classes, establishes the fact, that CHERRY PICTORIAL will and does relieve aud cure the afflicting disorders of the Throat and Lungs beyond any other medicine. The most dangerous affections of the Pulmonary Organs yield to its power; and cases of COnsump- aOns cured by this preparation, are public iy known, 80 remarkable as hardly to be be- lieved, were they not proven beyond dispute. As a remedy it is adequate, on which the public may rely for full protection. By curing Coughs, the forerunners of more serious disease 1t saves unnumbered lives, and an amount of suffering not to be computed. It challenges trial, and con- vinces the most sceptical Every family should keep 1t on hand as protection against the early and unperceived attack of Pulmonary Affections which are easily met at first, but which become incurable, and too often fatal, if neglected. Ten der lungs need this defence; and it is unwise to be without it. As 8 safeguard 10 children, amid the distressing diseases which beset the Throat and Chest of childhood, CHERRY PEcroRAL is invaluable; for, by its timely use, multi. fudes are rescued from premature graves, and saved to the love and affection centred on them. It acts speedily and surely against ordinary colds securing sound and health restoring sleep. No one will suffer troublesome Influenza and pain full Bronchitis, when they know how easily they can be cured.
 Originally the product of long, laborious, and successful chemical investigation, no cost or tol is spared in making every bottle in the utmost possible perfection. It may be. confidently re- lied upon possessing all the virtues it has ever exhibited, and capable of producing cures as memorable as the greatest it has ever effected.

Dr. J. Walkers California Vin- egar Bitters are purely Vegetable preparation, made chiefly from the native herbs found on the lower ranges of the Sier- ra Nevada mountains of California, the medicinal properties of which are extract cd therefrom without the use of Alcohol. The question is almost daily asked, ''What is the cause of the unparalleled success of VINEGAR BTTERs?" Our answer is, that they remove the cause of disease, and the patient recovers his health. They are the great blood purifier and a ife-g giving prin- ciple, a perfect Renovator and Invigorator of the system. Never before in the history of the world has medicine been com pounded possessing the remarkable quail ities of VINEGAR B1TTERs in healing the sick of every disease man is heir to. They are gentle Purgative as well as a Tonic, reliev- ing Congestion or Inflammation of the Liver and Visceral Organs, in Bilious Dis eases.
 If men will enjoy good health, let them use VINEGAR BTTTERs as medicine, and avoid the use of alcoholic simulants in every form.

Every year increases the populari- ty of this valuable Hair Preparation; which is due to merit alone. We can assure our old patrons that it is kept fully up to its high standard; and it is the only reliable and perfect ed preparation for restoring GRAY OR FADED HAIR to it's youthful color, making it soft, lustrous, and silken. The scalp, by it's use, becomes white and clean. It removes all eruptions and dandruf, and, by its tonic prop critics, prevents the hair from falling out, as it stimulates and nourishes the hair-glands. By its use, the hair grows thicker and stronger. In badness, it restores the capillary glands to their. normal vigor, and will create a new growth, except in extreme old age. It is the most eco nomical HAIR DRESSING ever used, as it requires fewer applications, and gives the hair a splendid, glossy appearance. A. A. Hayes, MD, State Assayer of Massachusetts, says, "The constituents are pure, and caze- fully selected for excellent quality; and I consider it the BEST PREPA- RATION for it's intended purposes.

A Bitter CoNrRoyERsY.-The temper
auce organs are waging bitter war on
the manufacturers of alcoholic bitters,
and their attacks are resented with equal
bitterness by the latter, who seem deter
mined tn prosecute the quarrel t" the
bitter end. In the meantime n novelty
in tonic medicines is making immense
progress i'll the confidence of all classes
and conditions Of society throughout the
United States and British America. We
refer 10 DIR. WALKERS CsTIfoEyIA VIZ
EGAR BrrrEEs, and we call it a novelty
i'll tonics because it contains no alcohol
an article heretofore considered essen
tial III medicinal invigorants. The alb
stemious portion of the community
approve the omission, and as the new
remedy is curing dyspepsia, hiliousncss,
nervous affections, and, i'll fact, a ma
jority of the diseases, external and inter
nal, which prevail, it is difficult to see
how the more self indulgent portion of
our felluw-citizons can cnnscientiously
object to il. One thing is certain if
ever there was what the French call II
grand success" the sudden and CON
t~inually increasing popularity of the
VINEGAR BrTTEEs deserves that name.
The advocates of temperance point TO
the salutary effects produced 10y this in
alcoholic restorative as q proof that
spirituous stimulants are not needed for
medicinal purposes-a position which
has been recently taken by many eminent
medical practitioners .-Com.

An Easy Way to Health.

The appetite is generally keener in winter thah
in summer, but the same low temperature which
begets an increased desire for food is apt to de-
crease the ability of the stomach TO digest it. The
most aggravated cases Of acute dyspepsia occur at
this season and the best, in fact, the only way, TO
control and cure them, is to stimulate and tone the
stomach and invigorate and regulate the secretive
and discharging organs. To do this promptly,
safely and thoroughly (without involving any
change in the ordinary habits of the invalid a
course of Hostetter's stomach Bitters will be
necessary. In order to accomplish a IA ical cure
Of indigestion, 1t is not enough to influence the
organs of digestion. The liver, the intestines, the
circulation, every organ and every secretion con-
cerned in the work of assimilating the food and in
carrying OF the waste matter of the system, must
be brought into a natural condition. Upon aiithese
portions of the living machinery, the great vege-
table medicine, which stands at the head Of all
modern restoratives, acts powerfully and bcne-
fciaIly. The feeble should take at least one dose
daily at all Seasons of the year; and it may be
taken with great benefit twice a day by all who are
preGisposed to dyspepsia, biliousncss or nervous
attacks. Ladies will find it a very pleasant help
in the latter class Of complaints, and indeed in all
the ailments incident to the sex.
