The Cant of Imposters.

1t Is so obvious that physical and constitu-
tlonal Vigor is the pest defense against disease,
that even the vendors OF drastic purgatiyes ad-
Vertlse them as tOnicS, stomachics and inyie-
Grants, in the hope of enlisting the confidence
of the public in the devitalizing and pernicious
pot1ons. II is amusing to note how these i'm
posters initiate and copy the language in which
the medicinal properties of Hostetter's Stom-
ach Bitters are described. Alth0u Eh the effect
OF their rasping eyacuants is to destroy the
tone of the digestive organs and the bowels
and TO rob the system of its vital strength, they
are unscrupulously recommended to the weak
and PROSTATE victims of disease as stimulants!
1t is time this humbug mot very successful
one 1t is true, thanks to the mature common
sense of the American people, was stigmatized
as 1t deserves. Such mischievous falsehoods
should be exposed pro bono publico. Hostetter's
stomach Bftters be it distinctly understood, is
stimulant. 1t hasa spirituous basis, and Won
derful sanitary principles through every part of
the system. The tonic, Alternative and reguIat-
ing ingredients of the Bitters would be compar-
atively inert If they not, so to speak, car
ried to the localities where they are required
by the stimulating agent. The cant which pro-
tests against the use of a pure alcoholic fluid,
when employed as a means of giving full effect
to medicinal extracts of the highest utility, is
the can't of charlatanism. Every intelligent
physician so characterizes it, and the sick who
are griped, conVulSed and debilitated by the
naseous and disgusting nostrums of the parties
who put it forth, soon find to their sorrow that
1t is delusion and snare. Hostetter's Bit
ters, the great sanitary stimulant of the age is
IN the tTuest sense of the words, wholesome,
V1ta1zlng, renoVating preparation.

A terrible affair, the legitimate result
OF whisky and beer guzzling, took place
on the cars the night of the show. 1t is
impossible to get the facts. There have
been all sorts OF contradictory stories
about it, and we took some pains to get
at the truth, but we found it impossible.
Averaging the reports, we will say, that
on one of the crowded cars, in the night,
somewhere between Jackson and Port
land quarrel was got up among q crowd
of drunken men, and a general drunken
fight ensued. When the parties came
out of it, James Arthur had great cash
in his shoulder, and Evan Williams was
terribly cut in the body. A man named
Blankenship had done the cutting. One
report says that he did it in selfdefense,
while another is that he was the aggres
sor, while Arthur and Williams had done
no wrong We think the reports all
show that the parties were crazy with
beer, and all were equally TO blame, but
unfortunately for community, none of
them were killed

August Goth, 1874.
When the Autumn spreads her banner
Over all the harvest sheaves,
And In quiet simple manner
Paints for us the forest leaves,
We forget that Winters coming,
Leaf and blossom roughly sears;
And the constant dreary drumming
OF the storm-cloud dropping tears.
So, unmindfui mid the painting
Oflhe cherished household bloom,
We forget the hour of tainting
That must come with coming doom,
When the cruel hcartless Reaper
Comes, and with n Stealthy tread,
Passing by the cautious keeper
Nips the bud and leaves 1t dead
Yes, our little ones are going
From their cribs to earth-beds low,
Passing like tie zephYrs blowing,
Or the softly sitting SNOW,
Thick and fast like leaflets falling
Drifted on the floating breeze,
They have heard the Master calling
Far above the forest trees.
Little heart forever stainless,
Little hands no toll to know,
Little head forever painless,
That was hacked with pain below,
Slnmber sweetly In thy beauty,
TIL the night OF time is DER
Thou hast left "A land of duty,
ThQu wflt Eearsh gofden shore.
