The second National Industrial Exposition
at Louisville opens on the second of September
next. In an invitation extended to the editor
of this paper we learn that the Directors OF the
Exposition have perfected every arrangement
necessary to making the display the grandest

chanism. Handiwork, and Scientific collections.
We are promised this year even greater and
more attractive display. Anticipating this, no
one can afford to forego the enjoyment ofspend-
ing day or more in the Louisville Exposition.
Reduced rates by Railroad and River have been
secured, which will enable parties to visit the
Exposition at comparatively small EXPENSE
The increased Hotel accommodations and travel
ing facilities in Louisville, together with the
natural attractions ofthe city will make a visit

wear and Tear Of Life.

The cares, and anxieties and mistortunes OF
life have as much to do with shortening Il as
dieease. They are in fact the the source OF
many ailments and physical disabilities. Ner
vous weakness, dyspepsia, affections Of the liy-
err, disturbances of the bowels, headache, hypo-
chrondria and monomania are among these dis
tressing fruits. II is, therefore, Of great I'm.
portance that persons whose minds are oppress-
ed with heavy business responsibilities, or
harassed by family troubles, or excited by
speculation, or perplsxed by multiplicity Of
enterprises, or in any way overtaxed or over
worked, should keep up their stamina by the
daily use OF wholesome tonic. Thousands of
persons thus circumstanced are enabled to
bear up against the difficulties IN which they
are involved. and TO retain their strength.
health and mental cearness, by the regular use
of Hostettera Stomach Bittters. Diseases
which are prone to attack the body when de-
biltated and broken down by over.much brain
work or exhausting physical labor, are Kept at
bay by the resistant power with which this IN
comparable tonic endows the nervous system
and the vital organs. At this season, when the
heat ia evaporating the elements Of strength
from every pore, an inyigorant is absolutely es-
sential to the safety and comfort Of the public,
and is required even by the moro robust ifthey
desire to keep their athletic capabilities in

Bitters is particularly useful at this period Of
the year as defence against the invisible dis
ease ahoat in sullry atmosphere. II is the
most potent Of all preventive medicines, and
for all complaints which affect the stamach. the
liver and the bowels, and interfere with the
perfect digestion and assimilation Of food, it is
the standard remedy.

MAN AND WoMAN.-It is a very
strange anomaly that men of great
est genius, as class, found but Its
tie happiness in marriage. Goethe,
Wycherly, Wilkes, Byron, and q
host of others, assumed the matri-
monial moose either from motives OF
interest Or spite. And these repre-
sentatives Of mankind truly prove
that Nman's love is of mans life a
thing apart 1t is but modicum
of his nature. Love is but the flow
ers of his early life, and he rarely
cultiyates them as he does his ambi-
ton, but ruthIessly brushes the ten
der plants in his march for a pin
nacle in the worlds thought. Wo.
mans life is biography Of the
heart. When she tells man that
she loves him, she tells him "there
is my life it is yours" The heart
il her worId--she governs and di-
rects II for him. She embarks her
whole soul in the sea Of affection,
and loses all when it is wrecked
for 1t is the wrecking Of the heart.
There is Joy for him that her love
cannot compass no misfortune that
her affection cannot ward off: and no
sacrifice SO great but what she car
make it for him.

the people at the Fair Ground, near Marietta,

cially urge upon the Auxiliary Societies of the
County to be represented on that occasion-im-
portant interests call for it.

The District Conference of the Methodist f

ence was held, was dedicated on last eanaay
morning. Bishop Pierce preached the aea nc,

verse: "And as they thus spake Je. aus n''''e''

a sermon replete with the most interesting mat
tar. uatcbless in beauty of diction and earnest
ness. full Of oul-touching tenderness, sympa-
Thy and love, yet powerful. majestic and
grand. Any words of eulogy from our pen
would be a work of super,rogation.. Everybody
knows of his extraordinary intellectual! powers
and how well he invariably acquits himself
therefore we leave the reader to picture TO their
minds the Bishop in one Of his mastery efforts
enchanting his Audience with religious pathos,
fervent eloquence and convincing logic
After the conclusion of his sermon, he stated
that there was an encumbrance of six hundred
dollars Indebtedness on the Church that would
have to be liquidated before he would offer II
unto the Lord in dedication. 1t was rule
with him-and the principle was right-never

The Bishop then called for four men that would
rive fitty dollars each. This number respond

and amounts, from $50 to IS. until over the
amount asked for was made up. he responding
