egar BitteTS are purely Vegetable
preparation, made chiefly from the native
herbs found on the lower ranges of the Sier-
ra 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 RECEIVERS his health. They are the
great blood purifier and life-giving prin-
ciple, perfect Renovator and Invigorator
Of the system. Never before in the history
of the world has medicine been com
pounded possessing the remarkable quail
tiles of VINEaAR BITTERs in healing the sick
of every disease man is heir to. They are
gentle Purgative as well as Tonic, relev-
ing Congestion or Inflammation of the
Liver and Visceral Organs, in Bilious Dis
eases.
If men will enjoy good health, let
them use VISEoAR BTTTERs as a medicine,
and avoid the use of alcoholic stimulants
in every form.

A singular case of suicide recently occur
red at Gessenay, near Berne, in Switzer-
land. The man, who killed himself, had
by immense efforts, in which he was sec
onded by his wife, who was even more ava
ricious than himself, succeeded in amassing
considerable sum of money. Not long
ago he was informed that legacy of 20, 900
francs had been left him. This piece of
fortune gave him the mortal blow, a pro-
found melancholy seized him, and the fear
of death from hunger haunted him day and
night. To avoid this fearful prospect he
stealthily left his house, went into neigh
boring forest, and hung himself to pine
branch. He left 10000 francs.
Paris, September 7.-Charles Perkins,

SENATOR CARPENTERS OPINION.

On Saturday wo published Senator Carpenters
opinion on the same subject. OF all those opin-
ions, that OF AIr. EyartB seems to us tho sound

lature Of Wisconsin might preacribs schedule
Of rates for railroads operated within tue State,
he maintained that that schedule ahonld not ha
such as TO work violation Of contracts or tho
taking Of private property for public use
without duo compensation. Mr. EyartB iB
Of opinion that any Inv which really
takes the property Of 4 corporation for public
use without compensation is unconstitutional.
Considering that Mr. Eyarts was tho hired coun-
sol Of the railway companies, mud received, III
report has 1t, some $4,000 or 900 tor his
servioas, thls opinion waa sIngulally impartial
In Which respect 1t stands In singular contrast to

eral lottera received from friends asking his
opinion on the constltutionality Of tho Wisconsin,

this section Of the country. He spoke for some-
thing moro than two hours, considering the caae
in its relation to the Now School theology
aa formulated thirtY-sl1 years ago in the
Auburn declaration. This declaration was dig
tiuctly recognized as orthodox in the hpsis of
reunion between the two branches Of the Church
i'll 1869. It Was alleged by DR.. Patterson to be
widely different in respect to many fundamental
doctrines from the Confession Of Faith II tho

sion OF Fatth IL shown to be out-as-

that ho favored speedy amopdmont Of
