The sinking Sayen.

The combination Of tonic, Alternative and
stimulating properties in Hostetter's Stom-
ach Bitters, especially adapts that famous
specific to the cure of chronic forms OF dis
ease, when the strong influence of long pro-
tracted morbid habit is to be surmounted.
In chronic dyspepsia, and liver complaint,
and in chronic constipation and other obsti-
nate diseases, it is beyond all comparison the
best remedy that can be taken. AS II meaus
of restoring the strength and vital energy of
persons who are sinking under the debilita-
ting effects of painful disorders. this standard
vegetable invigorant is confessedly unequal
led. The permanent tonics included in the
preparation are associated with a dlfusible
stimuant absolutely pure, and the tendency
of these elements is modified by the presence
OF alternative ingredients slower in theirOpe-
ratlons and capable of producing more last
ing local and general effects. For feeble con-
valescents and In all phases of debility, 1t is
the best as well as the most agreeable Of re-

The deficit in the accounts of Joseph
L. Ohastain, late postmaster at this
place, foots up, so far as is at present
known, $l705 50, which was paid to
the special agent of the postofllce de-
partment, by the sureties on Saturday
last. Chastain has left, or at least has
not been seen for several days. He
had gained the confidence of the peo-
pie, and not a breath Of suspicion rest
ed upon him until the agent swooped
down on him, and called upon him to
account for numerous thefts he had
committed in the last fifteen months.

The way in which the body Of the
late Senator Sumner was received in
this, city was disgrace to every one
concerned. Our police really. did try
to do their duty, but the stupid people
from Washington who had the matter
in charge would not allow any pro.
vision to be made far the proper recep-
ton of the body, and the strange sight
was presented of the, remains of the
dead Senator carried along the streets
in an express wagon, guarded by a
platoon of police. There ought TO have

NIGHT-SOIL FOR FUEL.

By recent experiments in Birm'ng-
ham, England, night-soil and sewerage
have been converted into a fuel of
superior quality and cheaper rate than
coal. The matter is rendered inodor-
GUS by chemical treatment. 1t is then
mixed with a small quantity of coal-gas
tar, and compressed into solid blocks
of any size to suit the customer. In
this condition it is hard and compact,
and gives forth merely a faint odor of
coal-gas tar. By experiment it was
shown that this fuel is better than
engine-slack for heating steam-boilers.
1t is said to leave very little ash, and
this ash can be again converted into
fuel which is even superior to the orig
inal. In consumption it gives off but
a small quantity of smoke. Little
machinery is needed for the conversion,
and any kind of night-soil a be used,
while the fuel can be offered at about
half the price of engine-slack. A
superior quality for household pur-
poses can be made at as cheap a rate.
Should this invention prove practical,
it will settle the question howprofitably
to utilize Our night-soil.

LIFE ON THE RAIL WAY.

Somebody has written his experience
on the railways of the country, and
after giving full vent to his feelings on
numerous subjects, opens on the code
of signals adopted by American rail
ways, as follows
eff the traveller cannot sleep easily
in the sleeping-cars it will amuse him
to be able to translate the meanings of
the different snortings of the iron horse.
They are guides to the blind, not to
mention the deaf.
"These signals generally come upon
the ear when you are trying to sleep,
and effectually prevent it. For in
stance, you are just doing away, and
hoping that you will not awake until
YOU are called by the sleeping-car con-
ductor, when there comes a quick single
screech. You Jump up, and have a sort
of feeling that your hair is doing like
wise.
"But that single screech merely
means, Put on brakes
"Two yells Immediately after mean,
LET them go again
"Another screech, Put them on
again. And two more screeches, Let
Gem go again, and SO on
eff the whistle should snort three
times, it means Look out backing
up Three long snorts when ap
preaching a station, means side
track A number of short, sharp
toots mean that cattle are or the track.
Son some of the roads the art of
whistling is carried to perfection. The
following circular, issued by the Cen
eral Superintendent Of a Western road,
illustrates what 1 mean
"'To ALL ENGINEERS: Engineers, in
approaching Parsons, will indicate a
down brakes by seventeen whistles !;
sup brakes by thirty-two whistles /;
'back up by forty whistles and two
snorts. In case of doubt, whistle like
the ID. At stree~t-crossings, whistle
considerably, and ring the bell. AL
ways whistle before dinner. Require
the fireman to keep the w~histle-valve
open during dinner. After dinner,
whistle and squirt water; then back
up. Squirt a little !; then go ahead
with a whistle, a squirt, and a ring.
This order will be rigidly enforced"

July IA, 1872, writes: My wife first became
lame nine years ago. Swellings would appear
and disappear on her hip. and she was gradu-
ally becoming reduced, and her whole system
rotten with disease. In 1871 a swelling broke
on her hip, discllarging large Quantities, and
since that time there are several openings.
Have had five doctors at all expense OF 5125,
who say nothing will do any good but Il sur
gical operation.
July 16, 1873, he writes thus: My wife has
certainly received a great benefit from the use
of YOU great Discovery, for she was not able
to get OF the bed, and WAS not expected to
live a week when she commenced using it, a
year ago. She has been doing most OF her
