Dr. J. Walkers California Vim egar Bitters are a purely Vegetable preparation, made chiefly from the native herbs found on thelower ranges of the Sier- "a Nevada mountains of California, the medicinal properties of which are extract ed therefrom without the use of Alcohol. The question is almost daily asked, ''What is the cause of the unparalleled success of VINEGAR BITTERs?' Our answer is, that they remove the cause of disease, and the patient recovers his health. They are the great blood purifier and life giving prin- ciple, Q perfect Renovator and Invigorator of the system. Never before in the history of the world has 6 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 o gentle Purgative as wol as 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 BITTERs as a medicine, and avoid the use of alcoholic stimulants in every form.

Hon. j. G. GIDDINGS, representative
in congress from Texas, has entitled
himself to the good will Of the whole
state in getting through the lower
house bill appropriating money to
establish military telegraph from
Red river to the Rio Grande, connect
ing the forts and posts along our
whole frontier. 1t is believed that ii
will also pass the senate and become a
law. If so, great good must result in
securing protection TO our people on
the borders and encouraging settle
ment in the home region. Anything
that will afford protection against the
Indians and justify families. locating
on the virgin lands of the frontier,
will be great benefit to Texas in many
respects. Railroads would be entirely
eiiicacious, but their progress must be
slow, and in the meantime, soldiers in
telegraphic communication, covering
the exposed line, constitute the only
means Of security. Mr.. Giddings, so
far as his house is concerned, has ac-
complished what has been desired for
years, and tempts us to forgive the only
mistake in his congressional career, in
voting for the salary bill.

trust he mag receive such prompt and
severe punishment as the crime de-
serves. Let every such tendency to
rascality in officials be nipped in the
bud. The bids, under seal, were depos-
tied in the state department for safe
keeping until the day on which they
were to be opened by the state print
ing board, and It was as base for that

DO Not Prosecute the Body

In sickness with medicines that depress the
physical energies. What the sick principal
~ need isan accession of vital strength to en-.
able them to cope with the enemy that has
assailed them. The diseased system should
be sustained, toned, purified and regulated,
and there is no medical preparation In ex-
lstence so largely endowed with the proper
ties required to effect these objects MS Hos
letters Stomach Bitters. In ordinary prac-
tice aperieift, blood-depurating, anti-biiious
and sedative medicines are administered
separately. In Hosetter's Bitters all these
agents are combined, and act together in per-
feet harmony, 50 that undue debility and un-
due excitement are alike prevented, and the
strength OF the patient rallies while the dig
ease is losing ground. In dyspepsia, liver
chronic constipation, intermit-
tent fevers, general weakness, and all all
ments involving physical and mental de-
preston, this pure vegetable restorative is
a sovereign femedy.
