How u Young Man Was Accidentally
Crusudcd.

From the pes Molnes Reglster
A few mornings since, young gem
tleman Of Des Moines, boarding NJ one
OF our flrst-class hotels, was awakened
10y c0l0red servant bearing salyer,
on which was u bottle Of gin cocktails,
sent TO the gentleman by friend IN
the office, That Des M0iner hastily
arose. drew the cork and irrigated him
self with the Old Holland before In
yestlng himself of any garments, One
drink put him IN good humOr with all
mankind, and with friend Of his In
particular who rOomed In an apart
ment at the same hotel hut some disc
lance down the hall. SO good natured
did the savory ben2ne make him that
he thought II his duty TO give the
aforesaid friend u drink.
II was early dawn, too early, he
thought, for any one TO be stirring, and
so, all unclad,. save In the garments
nearest his manly form, he started,
hottie In hand. Just as he neared his
friends door he heard approaching
footsteps at u turn In the hall, and m
instant later there burst forth the
morning carol of the chambermaid.
Here was fix, aud no time for consld-
Grafton. lie hastily decided TINT there
was yet time TO reach the door Of his
friends room, and hurried on. Nearer
came the feminine singer, and faster
played the young mans feet on the
Aborn house carpet. He reached the
door, and gave u hurried alarm. A
yawn was heard, and voice la2ily in
quired "What's up"' ppm up" re-
sponded the breechess youth, "let me
in quick,n But the friend wasn't in n
hurry. He didn't understand the stu
alton rs well rs the fellow outside.
"llurryp shouted the0utsider, rs the
maiden's I,ootstep drew nearer, "hurry,
here's II cocktail hurry, confound you,
hurryW Just then his eye caught the
shadow of the advancing damsel, east
10y the morning sun in advance of her
coming, There was no time for fur
ther parley, and dropping the anti
crusader beverage, he made Il hurried
spring and caught the frame of the
open transom. There was II vigorous
tluttering of white shirt fourteen
inches in the band and open at the
bacliG there were wide springs upward
and forward. The early morn
ing maid just caught hurried
glimpse of two great toes and u
bunch of corns whisking through the
transom, and then the Des Moiner sat
down on the floor inside the door, and
replaced an acre or two Of cuticle that
had parted company at various stages
of that big climb. Then he borrowed
some clothes in which to return home.
The next day he joined the crusaders
and the grand jury, the good templars
and the peoples association, and the
next time he "puts the bottle to his
neighbours lips" you'll know it.

In sickness with medicines that depress the
physical energies. What the sick principal
ly 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-
istoncc NO largely endowed with the proper
ties required to effect these objects MS Hos
letters Stomach Bitters. In ordinary prac-
tice aperient, blood-depurating, anti-bilious
and sedative medicines are administered
separately. In llosetters Bitters all these
agents are combined, and net together in per-
feet harmony, SO that undue debility and I'M
due excitement are alike prevented, and the
strength of the patient rallies while the dis
ease is losing ground. In dyspepsia, liver
complaint, chronic constipation, intermit-
tent fevers, general weakness, and all all
ments involving physical and mental de-
preston, this pure vegetable restorative is
sovereign remedy.

EXECUTIVE MANSION,
WASHINGTON, April y, 1874. ]
To the Senate Of the United States:
Herein | return senate bill number
6l7, entitled an act to fix the amount of
United States notes and circulation of
national banks, and for other purposes,
without my approval. In doing so,
must express my regret ut not being
able to give my assent to measure
which has received the sanction of u
majority of the Legislators chosen by
the people to make laws for their guild
ance, and ! have studiously sought to
find sufficient arguments to justify such
assent, but unsuccessfully. Practically,
II is question whether the measure
under discussion would give an adj
ditional dollar to the irredeemable pa
per currency of the country or not, and
whether, by requiring three fourths of
the reserves to be retained by the
banks, and prohibiting interest TO be
received on the balance, 1t might not
prove q contraction. But the fact can
not be concealed that theoretically the
bill increases the paper circulation one
hundre millions of dollars, less only
the amount of reserves restrained from
circulation by provisions OF the second
section.
The measure has been supported OH
the theory that IL would give increased
circulation. 1t Is u fair Inference,
therefore, that ii In practice the meas

A New York dispatch, of the 22d,
in relation to the veto message, says
although the news of the veto by
President Grant of the currency bill
had not become generally known, ut
the close of banking hours, the infor-
nation had spread with sufficient
rapidity to cause some excitement and
conversation at street corners on the
subject. The prevailing tone was one
of joy. The feeling inspired was a
generally hopeful one for the future.

exchange, the market was strong, hav-
