of this city has found a new amuse-

switching to do on the river switch,
and the aforesaid hoodlums crowd on

of American opinion can be brought
to bear favorably upon tins question
there will be patented fortunes IN the
shape Of devices for the combustion
and incarceration of Tho dead human
body. The beauty Of philanthropy
and humanity is somewhat furnished
when the calculating spirit of Simon
Magus is suggested in the worldly
wisdom of men who are SO sensitive
about the cockpit and pigeon match
and cattle-car, while other ills Of the
social economy arc bearing heavily
upon the children of men. 1t would
be much better for Congress to legis-
late so as to obviate the mangliDg and
killing of men, who in passing from
car to car are doomed to swift and
terrible destruction if by chance they
slip between the ears over which their
daiieR require them to pass at all
hours - tho night and in all kinds of
weather Horses and mules, and
rams and swine must be tenderly
cared for in cosy dens while men are
running over the icy roof, drenched
in rain and spriDgiug like chamois
across the chasms between the wains,
with nothing to prevent their instant
death if their footing fails. All this,
however, is in keeping with the croco-
die sensibllities that on account of
the imaginary sorrows of Nellie Gray
and the avuncular Thomas, has left
one half of our Confederation in pow
erty and political degradation, and
built up an insOlcnt aristocracy of
wealth IN the other-an aristocracy
that cares nothing for constitutions,
bibles or oaihs if their monopolies,
their patents, their factories, mills
and mines, are made the special OBJ
iccls of the fostering legislation of
''the best government in the world"
while Arkansas banditti are left to do
as they will, and South Carolina aud
Louisiana arc abandoned as the prey
and the spoil Of Northern Migrants and
plantation serfs. MammOn che least
exalted of all the spirits that fell, " to
whom Milton leaves none of the gran
deur that attaches to the rest, even
as they lay bowling in the burning
mari, is king. and the leprosy of a
wide spread veBality marks his reign.
No bill can now be introduced into
Congress that has not a job or subsidy
behind it. There are doubtless on the
committee Of agriculture partners of
the cattle-car man, who win 90 home
to tell the Changers what they have
been doing for the good cause, with
money in their pockets that got there
as mysteriously as that which found
its way from Cakes Ames' wallet to
that of Schuyler Colfax, and which was
finally accounted for by saying that it
came as a gift from a merchant of
New York, whose mouth had been
closed by death after the donation
was made.

oar Dornant Energies,

Our bodies are not As vigorous nor our minds
rs clear as they misht be. This remark is true
OF At least wo-thirds OF civilized society, and
OF STese twO-thirJis probably Onc-half is labor
ing undor bodily inarmities OF a character
likely 20 shorten the lives ofthe sufferers. This
is a melancholy exhibit and furnishes abund-
ant food for reflection. Can the evil be mitI-
gated2 Il can. Lack Of vitality Is the primary
cause Of most of the Physical and mental suf-
ferfng 10 which we are subjected, and there
fore WALKING medicinal agent Is the remedy
required. Is there such 4 medicine? There Is.
Hlstetter's stomach Bitters will rouse and en-
ergisc the mini and body when the life power
of the system is in comparatively dormant
state. The languid, feeble, Responding inva-
lii is not aware OF the latent energies that IN
deriie his d-buiiy. He thinks there is no
element Of vigor LEFT in his frame, when The
fact is that his physical capabilities are merely
aslccp and only require waking up. Let him
stimulate and tone his animal machinery ard
cndow il with new motive power, through the
agency Of this incompatible invigorant, and
he viii soon feel like a new man, or rather like
4 man who has received new lease Oflifc, and
The requisite health 10 enjoy il. Many business
men suffer from chronic languOr and depres-
sion caused by TOO close application 10 bust
ness. Hard students are often oppressed with
melancholy from like cause. Mechanics and
working men are affected in the same way as a
result OF over-labOr. To all who are in this
condition, from whatever cause, HOstetter's
stomach Bitters will prove a signal blessing.
Il Is a perfect panacea for physical debility
and mental gloom. 1t strengthens the body,
clears the mind and Gains the nervous system;
while as a remedy for Indigestion, biliousRess,
constipation, rheumatism, and intermittent
and remiitcnt fevers, IL takes precedence Of all
other medicines. may2-lm

his e9.h yelr, with his form unbcnt by

old pioneer will rel 7ice to hear that his
health j. still good. aud like Moses, his eye
is not 'lImme,I. nor his NATURAL force abAt-

pall-5earcis of Kings II was the honest
yaomanry weeping for 4 friend, with out
the show Of pomp that to Oft9n attends
such occasions in these degenerate days.
our correspondent also met with our old
