number of negroes amused themselves with a
kind of a general free fight, on North Broad ST.,
between twelve and one o'clock, last Satur-
urday night. Excited, doubtless, by unlicensed
rum, and, probably by lively appreciation of
the new Civil Rights which the United States
Senate has sought TO confer upon them, they in
dulged in the innocent pastime of hurlng sticks,
bats stones, etc., at each other filling the mid
night air, at the same time, with loud yells and
the most disgusting profanity. A number of
pistol shots were fred, and one of the rioters was
struck in the mouth. Unfortunately, at this time,
we are without town officer, hence the negroes
get up free fights, crowd upon the street corners,
aud commit other nuisances at their option.

Half the diseases OF the human family
spring from disordered stomach and may
be prevented by invigorating and touing
that abused and neglected organ with
Hostetter's Stomach Bcters Let it be
borne in mind that the liver, the kidneys,
the intestines, the muscles, the ligaments,
the bones, the nerves, The integuments, are
all renewed and noCrished by the blood,
and that the digestive organs are the grand
alembic in which the materials of the vital
fluid are prepared When the stomach fails
TO provide heathful nouri8hment for it's
dependencies they necessarily suffer, and
the ultimate result, if the evil is not arrest
ed, will be chronic and probably fatal dis
ease somewhere. It may be developed in
the kidneys in the form of diabeti,, in the
liver as congestion, in the muscles as rheum-
atlsm, in the nerves as paralysis in the in
teguments as scrofula. Remember, how
ever, that each and all of these consequences
Of indigestion may be prevented by the
timely and regular use Of that so ereigp

should be used. At least no debt
ought to be contracted without at
the same time levying a tax for the
annual payment Of the interest.
The speaker would not take a
gloomy view Of the case. If our
debts were large, we were able to
pay them; but the wisdom we need
is such wisdom as will secure us
against the contraction of more.
Our progress in population and
wealth is so rapid that the burden
which weighs heavily on us to-day
is light aS feather tomorrow. Ii
We can exercise the ordinary pru
dence Of self representation, our future
as a people will far surpaSs in pow
er and richness the most extrava-
CANT calculations based on our pro-
greSS in the past, wonderful as that
progress has been
The speaker closed by saying
that, with population so widely
extended, with bcal interests so
greatly diversified, and often in
seeming conflict, it is not to be ex-
pected that SO great a government
as ours can at all tines be admin
lstered with perfect satisfaction to
every section and every citizen.
But we daily grow to know more of
each other; and | am sure it will
be found of the East and of the
w est, Of the North and of the South
that the more intimately they be
come acquainted and related, the
better they will like each other, and
the less will appear the differences
that sometimes divide them
Tariff, currency, internal improve
ment and cheap transportation are
all susceptible Of fair settlement at
ter full discussion; and in final ar
bltranent of a wise craftsmanship
1t will be found i'll regard to these
questions, aud all others of like
magnitude, that the interest of one
section IS the interest of all, and
that the ''more perfect union -
which our torefath,rs sought to
establish, will be fully and finally
realized when each section is un-
willing to enjoy an undue advan-
tage over another, aud when all
sections are alike willing to be gov
crned IN what they ask and what
they give, in what they demand and
what they concede. by that spirit of
patriotism which always obeys the
authority Of principle and always
yields to the ''despotism of duty -

REMARKABLE CoINCJDEYcE.-

REMARKABLE CoINCIDENCE.-
The death of Bishop Lee, of Iowa.
recalls the remarkable coinciden-
ces mentioned by him at Bishop
Whitehouse's funeral-and now al
ded to by the fact of his death. In
college, Messrs Whitehouse and
Lee, being about the same age,
were classmates; Whitehouse was
called TO New York, and atterwarl
vacatlng his position for another,
Lee was called to fill it; in course
of time, Whitehouse was elected
Bishop of Illinois; shortly otter Lee
was elected Bishop of an adjoining
diocese, Iowa suddenly Bishop
Whitehouse died IN few days,
suddenly Bishop Lee died.
SO remarkably similar We're the
important events in their lives 1--WE
cannot now recall them ally, that
when Bishop Lee preached the fun
eral sermon over Bishop Whitehouse
few days since, he partic ularly
referred to the fact. The last
grand similarity-death-oc
soon after
