Two Foes of Health.

Cold and damp are inImical 10 health, and
we generally have an unwholesomc combina-
tion Of the two at this season. They penetrate
the skin and iuteguments and affect the muscu-
lar, glandular and nervous organizations, pro-
duclng rheumatism, neuralgia, chills and fever,
and where there is tendency TO dyspepsia or
liver complaint, provoking an attack OF indi-
gestion or biliousness. The best advice that
can be given under such circumstances is to
keep the external surface of the body warmly
clothed, and 10 keep the internal organs in
vigorous working order with the most whole
some and genial Of all tonics, Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters. Gradually but constantly
this famous tnvigorant IS supersediug the adult
terated liquors of commerce, as a medicinal
stimulant and corrective, in all parts OF the
country. Il will be happy day for humanity,
and it viii surely come, when this pure restO-
rativc shall have taken the place of raw spirits
as a stimulant in all our public and private
hospitals. II is not, however, merely harm
less substitute for the fiery stimulants referred
to. Its stimulating properties are not its chief
merits, although in this regard it surpasses all
the unmedIcatcd products Of the still, domes-
tic or imported. The powerful influence il ex-
ercises over the torpid and tOneless stomach,
the disordered liver, the constipatcd bowels,
and the relaxed nerves, render it positive
specific IN dyspepsia, liver complaint, iAtesti-
nal construction, nervous weakness, hypochon-
dria, rheumatism and sleeplessness. All chron-
ic complaints are aggravated by a Geld, moist
atmosphere, and it is therefore particularly
necessary for those who are afflicted with all
ments Of this nature, whatever their type may
be. 20 meet this predisposiEg cause OF sickness

There is a charming want of har-
mony, between the President and
his party friends, which seems to
increase in intensity every day. 1t
is seen in all the by-ways of official
Intercourse and patronage, as the
following from the Nashville Union
and American, viii show:
"There is trouble with regard to
the Nashville POstoflice. Prosser.
the present incumbent, is anxious
to be re-appointed, and his claims
are supported by Maynard. On the
other hand, Harrison, the Republi-
can Representative from that dis
trict, oppose Prosser's confirmation.
having candidate of his own. while
the President, who regards the
charge of absentecism which is
brought against PrOssCT, as 4 very
grave offence. wishes to appoint an
old friend of his own, carpet-bag-
ger from Illinois, by the name of
HasslOcE. He accordingly sent his
friends name TO the Senate once, but
yielding to Maynard's dictatiOn he
withdrew it. Harrison then made
q hot fight for his man, when the
President concluded to go back
again to IIasslock. Upon this COM
ing to Maynard's ears. he called
upon the President and said that
the failure TO reappoint Prosser was
a ''grOss outrage" whereupOn
Grant sprang to his feet and replied:
''Then, sir, | am responsible for
that outrage" Thus rupture of
friendly relations between the Presi-
dent and the Tennessee statesman,
which may be fraught with the
gravest consequences - the coun-
try, is brought about by a petty
quarrel as to who shall be POstmas-
ter at Nashville"

CANDIDATES FOR GOVERNOR
As a sentinel upon the post of duty,
it becomes us to say that our city Of
Jackson has two embryo candidates
for Governor. The name of Gen
A. w. Campbell in that connection.
is as familiar as household word,
and now, in connection with the
Farmers or Grange movement the
name of our talented fellow citizen,
Maj. Il. Il. Hurt, is freely mention
ed. We are no mans partizan, and
do not propose to be till nomina-
ton is made; but we may be permit

take either of the above named gen.

est of all modern canvas exhibitions,
which have created such furore
throughout the North and South last
season, will be here on the 26th. 1t
is justly conceded by all who have
seen it to be the greatest of all travel
ing shows. Its number of cages is
four times as many as are usually seen
in the ordinary menagerie, and its
arenic attractions are thrice as great
as usually displayed in circus enter
tainments. That is the mastodon OF
of the period all who confess. AS q
giant towers above his fellows, so ii
overtops and places in the shade all
other exhibitions of this age of its
popular class. To enumerate the man
fold attractions of this Goliah OF
shows would require more space than
we can allow, hence We refer the read,
er to the small bills and mammoth
many-colored posters adjoining the
walls around the city.
