Two Foes of Health.

Cold and damp are inImical 10 health, and
we generally have an unwholesOme cOmbina-
tiOn Of the two at this season. They penetrate
the skin and intcguments and affect the muscu-
lar, glandular and nervous organizations, pro-
ducing rheumatism, neuralgia, chills and fever,
and where there is tendency 10 dyspepsia or
liver complaint, provoking an attack OF indi-
gestiOn or biliousncss. The best advice that
can be given under such circumstances is to
keep the external surface Of the body warmly
clothed, and 20 keep the intCmal organs in
vigorous working order with the most whole
some and genial Of all tonics, Hsstetter's
Stomach Bitters. Gradually but constantly
this famous invigorant Is superseding the adult
tcratcd liquors OF commerce, rs u medicinal
stimulant and corrective, in all parts Of the
country. Il Will be a happy day for humanity,
and il Will surely come, when this pure restO-
rative shall have taken the place Of raw spirits
as stimulant in all our public and private
hospitals. Il is not, however, merely HARM
less substitute for the fiery stimulants referred
to. Its stimulating properties are not It's chief
merits, although in this regard It surpasses ali
the nmcdIcated products Of the still, domes-
tic or imported. The powerful influence ii ex-
crcises over the torpid and toneless stomach,

and the relaxed nerves, render it positive

nal construction, nervous weakness, hypOchon-
dria, rheumatism and sleeplessness. All chron-
ic complaints are aggravated by Geld, moist

necessary for those who are afflicted with all
mcnts Of this nature, whatever their type may
be. 20 meet this predisposiEg cause Of sickness
with wholesome antidOte. HOstettcr's Bit

conrre.sIonnI nLstrIcf..

Since the last election, the Leg
isiature has re-apgointcd the rep
resentation of the State Of Tennes-
see in the Congress Of The United
States. Madison now belongs TO
the Sth District, which is composed
of the nine counties of Henry, Ben
ton, Carroll, Perry, Decatur, Har-
din, McNairy, Henderson and
Madison. This district is very
compact, extending from the Ken
lucky line on the north, to the Mis-
sIssippi line on the south, compris-
ing the tier Of counties west of the
Tennessee river, Hardin on both
sides and Perry on the east. By
the census of 1870, the niHe cOun-
ties contained a population of 1885,
24S souls. Since that time the
population of all the counties in the
district has increased very rapidly.
We may look for Il redundant crop
Of congressional candidates before
long. In the district, Madison is
the largest and richest county,
Henry next, Carroll next aud Ben
ton the smallest.
The district described in the =
bovo extract from the Herald, is
commonly called the River Dis
trict, and is entitled to, and will no
doubt send i conservative demo-
crat TO the next Congress, unless
we arc cursed with Il multiplicity Of
candidates. Already several names
are spoken Of in this connection,
more or less prominent in political
circles. Gen. Atkins will doubt
less be IL candidate for reelection,
and perhaps old Henry has other
Congressional aspirants to offer
from her bountiful crop Of able
men. Judge J. d. Porter, who has
so ably presided as Circuit Judge,
it is thought is in training either
for Congress or the Governorship,
and it IS not probable that so ge-
NAL and talented q gentleman will
long remain in retirement.
Henderson county, too, will pre-
sent a formidable competitor in the
person of Col. Jno. NJ. Taylor,
now Attorney General for the river
counties. He is man of courage,
honor and most chivalric qualities,
and has host of friends who will
press his claims with great zeal
and energy. Hardin may present
the name of Col. Tom Beatman,
now filling the vacant chair of the
judiciary, so long honOrcd by the
!amented Wallser. His ability and
integrity arc alike unquestioned.-
Madison has q score of names who
would make good Congressmen.-
Inaecu, We COmu montion a,doZen
in Jackson, but we will not do so
now. At the right time, we trust,
public sentiment will concentrate
upon the proper person, and we will
be able to choose from the many
talented gentlemen in the Geld, one
whose reputation will be worthy
Of his high estate, and whose ca
reer will BIO pointed to with pride
by an admiriug constituency.

olutioas:
LIST. ResOLred, That in the opinion
of this meeting, the late Hon. Elijah
Walker was one of the ablest lawyers
of the State, whose opinions were
ever considered with much regard by
the highest judicial tribunal of Ten
nessee, and while occupying the bench
of one of the Circuit Courts for many
years, he proved himself an able and
upright Judge. And by his kind de-
pertinent, his fidelity and ability as a
judicial officer, won the respect and
affection of the bar, and the conf
dence of the community.
2nd. Resolred, That in the death of
Judge Walker the bar has lost friend
who regarded the profession to which
he belonged an honorable one, who so
himself as to secure the
best wishes and highest respect of his
professional brethren in life, and
whose death is source of profound
sorrow and regret.
Sd. Resolred, That the proceedings
of this meeting be spread upon the
of this Court at the present
term, and that the clerk of this Court
furnish a copy of these resolutions to
Mrs. Walker and to the publishers of
the Nashville Republican Banner,
Union and American and Jackson
Wing and Tribune for publication,
and that other papers in the State be
to copy.

Lindsey's Printing Telegraph.

LINDSEY EElnIInS IeleS rapns
The indomitable and persevering
energy with which Capt. Lindsey has
sought to embody his idea for a
Printing Telegraph" in a tangible
and practical form has finally culmi-
mated IN complete success. 1t has
been our pleasure to witness the per-
fiction of its movements and opera
ton. The instrument III itself is a
master piece of mechanism, and the
precision and eXactness with which it
executes its movements is equal to
that of a finely balanced chrOnome-
ter. By the mere depression of an
alphabetical key, in no wise nechani-
cally connected with the printing me-
chanism. and apparently entirely iso-
lated from it, the instrument with ST.
multaneous response prints the cor
responding letters iii type upon the
paper. Truly it is n sublime contem-
plation to witness a moving mass of
metal, inanimate, vOiceless, yet APP
parently gifted with a supernatural in
telligence, faultlessly doing in ST.
lence your bidding, leaving in perma-
nent characters the traces of thought
and with a rapidity almost equal
thereto, and yet all this is compre-
hended in Capt. Lindsey's invention.
A labyrinth of wires. as impenetrable
apparentlyras Rosamond's bower lies
concealed from sight beneath the
Dashboard, by which the impondera-
BILE fluid seeks out and executes its
work.

lightning from the clouds, but it re-

dering this most subtle of the agents

most admirably in recOnstrdcting this
harness so as to make it pull in a new
direction, and we congratulate him
upon his success.

not only gave his official signature to
the act, but actually ''lobbied" for its

pocket the sum of 100000. The re-
fusal of Congress to repeal the salary
grab with respect to the greatest of all
the salary grabbers Is equivalent TO
