NAP DOGS.

Parents may breathe ireer every time
they hear the crack Of II gun, followed
by the yelp of n dog. The good work
commenced yesterday, and we trust
that every dog found unclaimed will he
at once killed by the police. The idea
ofdeath by hydrophobia is the most
horrible of all the modes Of death
known; and, as we recently said, we
would rather have every dog in The
land hilled than to hear of one fellow
being dying by that terrible disease.
Yesterday morning, before sunrise,
two dogs passed our residence in n sort
OF crazy gallop, frothing 1T The. mouth
and tongues out, manitesting all the
incipicnt indications Of madness. We
shnddercd to think that within n
block, they might bite some neighbor,
perhaps n helpless child, but had no
means of destroying them Every
good citizen, every man in whose heart
beats the pulsations of II true man,
should not only sustain the authorities
In killing dogs, but 90 further, and
themselves kill every one showing the
slightest signs Of madness. The poor
eolored man bitten on Monday, though
an humble man of color is as much en-
titled to protection in life rs the great
est in the land. Doubtless he will be Il
victim.
Beyond all the official action, we
advise persons who even chain their
dogs to be careful, and especially see
that their little ones are not allowed to
80 near them. You know not at what
the fatal sting may be given,
even by your f;.vorite and faithful dog.
1t is best to muzzle those that are
in yards wherever there are
any of those precious ones of whom our
blessed savior said, "Sufler them to
come unto me.n

lfthe blood be thin and watcry the whole
system is Impoverished. The flesh is labby
the muscles lack hardness, the nerves are re
Taxed, the. internal organs but imperiectly
perform their functions, Che brain is inert.
and, in short, the entire body is only half
alive. The stomach is mainly responsible
~ this wretched condition of the human
machine. Stimulate and tone that organ
with Hostetter's stomach Bitteis, and u
marked change for the better will soon be
apparent The result OF improving the di-
gestion with this potent and genial tonic will
be tile conversion of the food into rich, pure
blood, and as the blood is the raw material
from which flesh, muscle, brain, bone, and
every membrane, tissue and ligament of the
body are manufactured, all those conpo-
nents of the material frame win be gradually
regenerated and invigorated. This Is sound
doctrine, and IT is sustained by the logic of
facts. a ftIt F'aAI Jtt

liz his sermon on the death of the
late Senator Sumner, theRev. Dr. Tai
mage, Of Brooklyn, New York, after u
eulogy on the deceased, said:
Here was a mana noble, generous
pure man--who had at one time to put
theocean between him and his slah-
deiers ;who was charged with d gnaw-
ing ambition; wh0was set on by all the
rabid dogs from the political kennel.
If such n man could not escape calum-
ny how could others hope to escape!
His advice to young men was TO shun'
politics and fix their aims on hcaven.p
On which the Louisville Courier
Journal most fifty and sensibly com
ments rs follows:
But the reverend gentleman did not
seem torealize the Necessity OF some
body being in politics, and since we
must have politicians is il not better to
haze the Summers than to have the
Buffers? If all good men shun politics
II is clear those who enter the field will
be all bad men. Mr.. TalmaEe should
remember, too, that criticism is not d.
recsed solely against politicians; clergy
men come IN for their share, and Mr..
Talmage has come in for his share.
