rwo Enes of Health

Cold and damp are inimical to health, and we
generally have unwhoesOme combination of the
two at this season. They penetrate the skin and
integuments and affect the muscular, gandular
and nervous organizations, producing rheumatism,
neuralgia, chiIls and fever, aud where there is q
tendency to dyspepsia or liver complaint, provok-
ing an attack of indigestion biiousness. The
best advice that can be given under such circum-
stances is keep the external surface of the body
warmly clothed and to keep the internal organs in
vigorous working order with the most wholesome
and genial of all toics, Hosteters Stomach Bitters.
Gradually but constantly this famous invigorant is
superseding the adulterated liquors of commerce,
as medicinal stmuant and corrective, in all parts
of the country. 1t will be happy day for humani-
ty and it will surely come when this pure restora-
tive shall have taken the place of raw spirits as a
stimulant in ali our public and private hospitals.
1t is not however, merely harmless substitute for
for the fiery stimulants referred to. It's stimulat
ing properties not its chief merits, although in
this regard it surpasses all the unmedicated pro-
ducts of the still, domestic imported. The
powerful influence it exercises over the torpid and
toneless stomach, the disordered liver, the consti
pated bowels, and the relaxed nerves, render it a
positive specific in dyspepsia, liver complaint, in
testilIal construction, nervous weakness, hypo-
chondria, rheumatism and sleeplessness. Al
chronic complaints are aggravated by cold, moist
atmosphere, and it is therefore particularly ne
cessary those who afflicted with ailments of
this nature, whatever their type may be, to meet
this predisposing cause of sickness with a whole
some antdote. Hostetter's Bitters should be taken
daily at this season by all persons laboring under
chronic ailments that tend to weaken the system.

THE MEXICAN VETERANS.

The Convention of Mexican War
Veterans that convened in Washing
ton City on the 18th adjourned sine
die on the 18th, after pleasant and
harmonious reunion of three days.
A resolution was adopted request
ing the War Department to furnish
to the Convention, for preservation,
copies of the muster rolls of those
who took part in the Mexican war.
They agreed upon q memorial to
Congress, asking pensions for those
who were engaged in that war, or
their surviving widows and children.
In accordance with previous arrange
ments the convention, in body,
proceeded to the Executive Mansion
and had a pleasant interview with
the President.
Upon re-assembling a resolution
was adopted, asking Congress to
remove the disabilities of those who
took part in the Mexican war, but
engaged in the late civil war, from
receiving pensions.
Junge Mackey then reported a
constitution and bylaws for the
government of the permanent as
ISOLATION, to be known as the "Na-
tional Association of the Veter-
ans of the Mexican War;" and pro-
viding for its officers, mode of man
agem Mt, and for an annual meet
ing in Washington on the 22d day
of FEBRUARY, that being one of the
days upon which the battle of
Buena Vista was fought. as well as
being the birthday of Washington.
The Convention elected the fol-
lowing officers of the permanent
association Pr, sident. Gen. Geo.
Cadwallader; also a Vice President
and Counscller from each State
and territories, and five Secretaries
and a Treasurer.

GENTEEL SNUBBING

Is no name for the letter of Presi-
dent Grant to the Governor Of Tex
SIS, in regard to the difficulties in
that State about the newly elected
State Government, for which the
State functionary asked the usual
radical aid. The President never
wrote a more sensible or creditable
letter, nor never aided in the
achievement Of a more merritorious
victory. If we never shout again,
for this act of his, wen raise one
.hurrah for Grant The course he
has taken in the Texas election case,
and the one that it is generally be-
ileved he will adopt in the Mississip-
pi ease, are taken as evidence that
he is wiIfully departing from the
established precedents Of the Repub-
hcan party. Add to this the jeal-
Ousies and rivalries among Repub-
ican Senators. the scheming and
intriguing for the Chief Justiceship,
and the party Generalization all
around, and we find a state of things
that is quite cheering at the present
junction of National affairs. Hav-
ing abandoned, as tits positively as
serted, the idea of a third term, it is
TO be hoped that President Grant
will hereafter be found in the ranks
or those who take the Constitution
and laws as their guide.

National Soldiers Convention.


WASHINGTON, Jan. 15-The dele
gates to the National Convention
of Mexican War Veterans represent
all sections of the country. At
noon, they marched from their head
quarters to Wizards Hotel, with
banners and a band of music, under
the escort of the Presidents mount
ed guard, a local organization. The
Convention was called to order by
Gen. j. w. Denver, who said its OBJ
jects were the preparation of a
memorial to Congress, asking pen
sions to the survivors Of the war of
1912! also, to adopt measures for
the organization of a National Bro
therhood of Mexican Veterans, and
for a representative at the Centeu-
NAL Exposition, as Philadelphia, in
1878.
The convention, however, need
not be confined to these objects
alone. Those who framed the call
were animated by a desire to meet
comrades from all sections of the
country, and thereby renew old as
sociations. There were some who
behaved we'll but were now INDECENT
and unable to take care of them
selves, therefore one of the objects
Of the convention should be to pre-
vail upon Congress to pass a law to
admit them to the Soldiers Homo,
near Washington, which was pur-
chased and established with money
obtained from Mexico by the valor
OF our arms, the institution being
open only to the soldiers of the regu-
lar army.
In speaking Of the Mexican cam
paign, General Denver said, our
troops attacked the BIexicans in
their own country and captured their
strongholds, opposing to them not
more than one-third or one-fourth as
many Americans as there were Mex
icansin the field. That war continued
two years without a single reverse
to our army and hence it was right
that the surviving veterans should
meet and remind the people of the
country that the victories were Sc,
cured, not for one section of our
country more than for another, but
what they did was for our common
advantage and renown. General
Denver was frequently interrupted
by applause. A temporary organi-
cation was effected by the selection
of General Denver, as chairman and
A. NJ. Kennedy as Secretary, and
committees we're appointed on ere
dentials and q permanent organize
ton.

A rumor that the New York
Herald is TO be sold to George W.
Childs, the owner Of the Philadelphia
Ledger, for 100000, prevails in
New York. Mr. Bennett has been
editing the paper by cable from
Paris, rather expensive mode of
journalism, and it is really doubtful
if he cares so much about the dis
tinction of being a great American
journalist as his father did. He
is pecunniarily interested in the Reg
lister, an American paper printed in
Paris, and under the original charge
of Mr.. Ryan, and old attache of the
Herald, and iG is rumored that he
has design in his brain of starting
q daily paper in England on the

FEDERAL COURT POSTPONED UNTIL
MARCH SICKNESS JUDGE TRIGa-
MUNICIPAL NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
| ETC, ETC, ETC.
KNOXVILLE, Tenn, January nth, 1874.
The first days Of this week were
days of anxiety and expectation
upon the part of witness and client
attending the Federal Court. The
major portion of those interested
were very DESTROYS for Judge Trigg's
presence. His absence led to the
conclusion that he would not hold
the usual term and that their causes
would have to pass over until Judge
Emmons' term. From some cause
those having causes pending before
this Court, have horror in being
tried by Judge Emmons. Many re-
gard his Uery frequent suggestions to
the counsel for the Government as
an unwarranted departure from the
office of q presiding Judge-that if
the attornies for the prosecution are
not able to compete with those Of
the defense, then let others who are
able to protect the Government be
chosen, and that it is not the pro-
vince Of the presiding Judge to be-
come the prosecuting attorney.
Those who haYG causes pending be-
fore the Court, and who were identi-
fed with the South during the war, |
regard with distrust, almost any pro-
fessed purpose he may express as to
seeing justice done the accused. His
extreme Republican views and his
nativity ard home are causes for
such conclusions. Judge Trigg, on
the other hand, while decided Re-
publican, and tenacious as to the in
terests of the Government is I'M
in these regards, and is so
esteemed by all interested-stil he
is distinguished for his kindness of
heart and regard for his countrymen.
He presumes the attornies appoint
ed by the Government competent to
the prosecution and leaves the caus-
es in their hands. For abil ty, how
ever, Judge Emmons is held IN high
esteem by all.
The Court did not convene until
W ednesday evening, owing to the
sickness Of Judge Trigg. From the
same cause the Court adjourned yes
