MORE PRAISE.-The New York Tribune, in
the course of an appreciatiye criticism of the
Oratoro of st. Peter, says. 4Q4
Mr.. Paine's style has undergone great and
radical change since the composition of his
Mass in ID, in 1865 or 1866. No two compost
tons could be more widely different than his
Mass in ID and st. Peter. Of the old fo NAL
perfection little has remained. The musical
form of st Peter is in fact as new, as unaccus-
toned as that of the most Independent of the
modern composers. The same almost rugged
strength remains, clothed with far greater bril-
liancy. st. Peter is much more unequal work
than the Mass, but it at times scars to a far
higher level 1t may be said that, almost with
out exception the oratorio is strikingly original.
Alr Paine never stoops to the commonplace.
His originality always impresses us as genuine
and spontaneous, not as something e-ely put
on for the moment, or Fictitious. We have
him at his best when he is on his highest at
tainable plane, not when he attempts little We
have rarely seen work of so great promise as
ST. Peter. Great fault it individually has. but
the one disheartening fault of mediocritv # has
not 1t seems more like the first large work of
great composer, full of strength, beauties. and
great imperfections, than like the work of ma
tured mediocrity.

lHh SUBJECT of the formation of a con.
servative temperance society in This ci.v hos
been discussed by large number of oontIa
men who do not fully fall in w,,,, oeta go
measures. 1t is understood that such a 60
ciety would discountenance drinking across
bars in hotels, treating and all other ssnernon
dicular' drinking, and even extend to winns
at parties, etc. One of the reasons wbv tho
movement is delayed is because the more
radical temperance leaders will make wa,
upon it. The revolution that such so.
ciety would create, if undertaken, can hardly
be conceived.

Put the system in Fixh.ing Tune.

The great object in cases of indigestion and its
companyng arrangements of the liver, bowels and
nerves, is to pu the stomach in condition to dis
solve, readily and without PAIN the food submitted
to its action. This is mplished, and much
than this, by. the d lily use of Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters. A dose should be taken before every meal
The good effect will soon be apparent. The loss OF
dyspepsia will be arrested. The determination Of
bile to the skin will cease, and that cathartic fluid
will pass into the bowels and assist in keeping them
free. Every organ connected with or dependent up
on the stomach will be toned and renovated The
kidneys, the siters of the SYSTEM will be benecaly
and the pores. In Short the whole organization
will be put in the fighting trim necessary to resist
and expel disease II the medicine is taken regular
ly and persistepty, this result will Inevitably follow.
