A BrilIiant RECORD of cures.

An American humorist tells us that it would
have been money in his pocket If he had been
born without a stomach, and then proceeds to
figure up the cost of a chronic. dyspepsia, to
winch he is a martyr, and which he says ii is
impossible to cure. On this point Josh Billings
(for he is the martyr referred toy is mistaken.
Unless his stomach differs from all other dys,
peptic stomachs, Hostetter's Bitters will cure
him in less than three months. This it would
be safe to guarantee under any penalty. There
are few, very few, actual specifics for dis
ease in existence, and Hostetter's Stomach Bit
ters may be set down one of them. In cases
of indigestion it never fails. Persons who had
suffered for many years almost every conceiva-
BILE species of torture from this most agonizing
complaint, have been permanently cured with
the Bitters iii six weeks. Hundreds of such in
stances are on record, authenticated by the
testimony of prominent men in every walk of
lie, eminent physicians among the number
But this celebrated vegetable preparation is

more salutary; and in all diseased Conditions

And now comes Lewis Shots and de-
nies the charges we made about his
speech. He says he uttered no word on
that occasion that is not true, and he
holds himself in readiness to prove the
same, although he published card in
the STANDARD last week over his own sig
nature, in which he publicly acknowl-
edged that he had lied about Mrs. Stew
art In that speech he uttered ISLANDERS
so vile about one of the purest christian
women in this country, that if we should
publish his vile language our paper world
be excluded from the mails under the
laws of the United States, and we would
be liable to be indicted for the same.
He gives as his authority for these slam
ders, whom do you think? Abe Gas
coyne and Jimmy Newportl
He pictured drunkenness as a great
and terrible evil, and then asserted that
Christ not only approved of this great
evil. but he actually made and furnished
Intoxicating drinks to men who were SO
beastly drunk that they did not know
what they were drinking. And yet he
says he was not profane.
We hope he may take the advice of his
friends" and never make such another
speech. 1t was beneath silent, or any
other kind of contempt.

in Jackson, Wednesday, August 5th. We have
never seen the performances of this company
and cannot speak from actual observation; but
judging from the criticisms of the
press, where it has exhibited, it is first-class
in every respect. All speak of it in the highest
terms of praise and no doubt our citizens will
be well repaid for their visit to it. The Will
Transport Pa.) Gazette and Bulletin speaks of
the company in the following high terms: "The
Southern Circus exhibited in this city yester-
day, to the satisfaction of those who witnessed
the daring feats performed in the arena. Be-
meath the canvass there was an exhibition well
