An Amusing Speech with Serious Moral

In this paper will be found a highly
amusing speech of Hon. S. s. Cox, OF New
York-one of those impromptu, otf-hand
essays for Which the distinguished and &C
complished New York Member is so IA
nous. He is a great favorite with all par
ties, and his charming manner, ready wit
and. at times, irresistible drollery, always
bring crowd of listeners around him. In
this little jere desprit there is a serious
moral, showing how the peoples money Is
beign wasted how millions could be saved
and left in the pockets of the taxpayers
by reducing the army, selling off the sur
plus clothing, and refusing to buy worth
less and unnecessary nostrums to keel
moths out Of clothing which ought not t
be on hand at all. The people will not fai
to appreciate the application Mr.. Co
would make, nor his crushing burlesque
the absurd financial doctors who delug
the country with their meaningless plat
tudes. Read it. and pass it to your neigh
Dor, so that all can enjoy it.

SMITH AND BoNNEY RETIRE.

This morning Messrs. Blanchard q Bal
ley took out distress warrant on Smith
& Bonney, their tenants, for two months
rent amounting to $S3 33S, and appeared
on the scene with constable to
serve the same, believing as they
say that Messrs. Smith Il Bonney
were running off their goods. The circum-
stances attending the serving of the papers
as told by each party, are somewhat con,
ficting. Smith & Bonny saying the Off
Ger took complete possession Of the store
and forbid them selling or removing any
goods The other side saying the step
taken were the usual ones in such case
and that they requested them to designate
what the law exempts, and then the of
flee would take the balance. Smith 1

case in the hands of CM Osborn Swee

other side.
Thus the case stands Constable sittin

Eealth's Shield and Protection.

Health is universally admitted to be the most
desirable of earthly blessings yet it is eoparded as
reeklesslv as if it were of no value at all. Thou
sands who are compelled by their occupations and
pursuits to breath unwholesome air, to expose
themselves to violent alterations OF heat ana cold
and TO brave other evils inimica to health and life
utterly neglect to Iortify themselves against the
dangers which surround them by proper course OF
tonic treatment. For many years 1t has been d
medical profession. that Hostetter's Stomach Bit
tiers is the best antidote to malaria and the finest
acclimating medicine in existence. In fever anC

conditions are unfavorable TO health, this famous
vegetable uygorant and Alternative has been fount
Dotent SAFEGUARD even to feeble constitutions ant

The Rock Island (lll) ARGUS takes Sc
rious exceptions to the item in the Times,
to the effect that the citizens OF that town
have lost all confidence in their police de-
partment, and the rest of the city govern
ment. 1t claims that the charge effects
the integrity and prosperity of the city,
AS one Of the Rock Island papers asserts
that the CITY government is remedilesly
corrupt; and as another city paper asserts
that it is the best in the world, the Times
will do no more than to give the public both
statements, and leave the conclusion to be
drawn by everybody to suit himself. Cha
| cdgo Times, 1lh.
No objection to that course. But that
was not what the Times did. The Times
said:
The citizens of Rock Island have arrived at th'
conclusion that their police department. is utterly
corrupt and more than suspect that the whole CIT.
| government is about as bad.
Which was not true. The people hav'
come to no such conclusion and Their
was no way in which the Times could know
the fact had it been fact. There Is n
reason in the world why they should com
to any such conclusion. The present cit
government has reduced taxation abou
one half without increasing the debt. An
the police department was never better.

Through the Ice.

Another team went through the ice this
morning, and still people keep crossing on
the treacherous support. This time it
was Siemon Await and son, who, with wag-
on and horses, were both precipitated into
the water. Both men and horses were
pulled out, one horse, however, was drown
in the operation. There is still oppor-
tunity to drown more horses and per
haps drivers too, which we expect will bt
improved. The ice near the shore II
strong enough to hold till you get GU
where the water is deep enough to drown
any mule driver or horse team, SO dri
vers will keep crossing on the ice, seeing
we now have free bridge.

Dyspepsia! Dyspepsia Dyspepsia

Dyspepsia is the most perplexing OF all
human ailments. Its symptoms are al
most infinite in their variety, and the for
lorn and respondent victims OF the disease
often fancy themselves the prey, in turn,
of every malady This is due, in part, to
the close sympathy which exists between
the stomach and the brain, and in part also
to the fact that any disturbance of the di-
gestive function necessarily disorders the
liver, the bowels and the nervous system,
and effects, to some extent, the quality OF
the blood.
EFF. Kunkers Bitter Wine of Iron is a
sure cure. This is not new preparation,
to be tried and found wanting; it has been
prescribed daily for many years IN the
practice of eminent physicians with unpar
relied success; it is not expected or in
tended to cure all the diseases to which the
human family is subject, but is warranted
to cure Dyspepsia in the most obstinate
form. Kunkers Bitter Wine of Iron nev
er fails to cure. Symptoms of Dyspepsl
are loss of appetite, wind and rising OF tn
food, dryness of the mouth, heartburn
distention of the stomach and bowels, con
