Prominent among these few is Hostetters Stomach Bit

with good reason since to the weakened stomach it

upon the attsnuated frame. There is exaggeration
in this statement 1t is true that the system

American Continents, Mexico, and the West Indies in

TIE FRIGATE CoNsTITUTIoN.-It is an
nounced that orders have been received in
the Philadelphia navy yard to commence
work on the famous old frigate Constitu-
ton, (alias Old Ironsides,) with the view
that she may be completed for the centen-
NAL, on which occasion she will be one of
the most interesting objects to visit in con-
nection with naval affairs. The Constitu-
ton was completed at Boston in 1897, and
rebuilt several years ago. Her exploits in
the war of 1912 were as follows: She sail
ed from Boston on the 9Th of July, COM
manded by Capt. Isaac Hull, and on the
10Th of August, 1912, captured the British
frigate Guerrero. Returning to Boston,
she again sailed, after being thoroughly re-
paired, commanded by Capt. VIM. Balm
bridge, on which cruise she captured the
frigate Java. Returning to port, she sail
ed once more on the Both of December,
now under the command of Capt. Charles
Stewart, capturing the Picton, of fourteen
guns, then the Cyane and Levant in sin
gle engagement, both vessels rating twenty
guns, but really carrying twenty-five.

coming up of the food, coated tongue, dis

cB AS we are opposed to abusing, and
always incline to favor our own folks when
they are SO fortunate as to gain high posi-
tions in State or National affairs, we feel a
deicacy about praising them lest it seem
like fulsome hattery, and prefer to let
strangers speak of their merits. The An
napolis Gazette IA Republican paper says
of Governor Groome:
NEXT GovERNoR.-From the way the
county conventions of the different coun-
ties on the Eastern Shore are sending
Groome delegations, is generally believed
that he will receive the nomination. And
why not? He has held the position of Gov
ernor but tho remnant of a term, having
been chosen by the Legislature to fill the
unexpired term of Gov. White. No one
can deny that he has filled the office of
Governor with becoming dignity and full
filled its duties with perfect fidelity, and
under the circumstances, it would be un.
just to faithful and efficient officer to dis
card him.

SOUTHERN SUPPLIES FOR TIE NoRT,
If the all rail line over the New
York and New England railroad can
bring peaches of a better quality than
Boston ever received before through
without transhIpmcnt from the orch
ards in Delaware and Maryland. why
can't 1t bring other quickly perishabl c
Southern vegetables and fruit in the
same way? The peach train onSaturday
morning arrived at half past one, and
was unIoaded before daylight. The
above question Is asked By Bosto

answer in practical demonstration OF
the fact.

"lFARSINS" AND ''ELoeUEEcE' DER1-
pEp.-Tho Republican, the Acknowledged
organ Of the Ring, takes occasion in its
moments of bitterness when sweating in
the hard corners to which We have so fire.
auently pressed it for its attempts to
abuse, undcrrate and detract from Col.
whitley, to derido learning and elo-
Quence. In its Issue Of Wednesday, after
saying good deal to cover up the short
comings Of its candidate, it breaks out in
the following spiteful manner:
"We would like to know what Colonel
Whitley has ever accomplished by his
learning or eloquence. He has never
contributed to promote the interests of
our city or advance any good cause. he
has no claim whatever upon our people
for support, and the GAzETrE's labor to
magnify this his talents and disparnge
those Of his competitor ere simply ridicu-
lous."
Well. now, to use Biddy's expression,
that's poor tea and as weak as dishwa-
ter, We might answer the question by
asking what Mr.. Valentine has done for
Wilmington that he should be elected to
fifth term Of the Mayoralty? But that
Yankee mode Of answering does not come
up to the merits of the question. Does
cur neighbor undertake to make his
readers believe q man of learning or elo.
quence" could live here forty years, and
rise to the front rank in the profession
Of the law, and raise and handsomely ed
. ate O family, ard not "con tribute to
promote the interests Of cur city or ad-
rance any sood cause p That could not
be. We have made no specific claims for
Col Whiteley, and these remarks are
forced upon Us. But in justice to Col
Whitsley it mag be said he has contribu.
ted largely Of his means beth to the city
tax collectors and the State tar collec-
tors, and he and his family have also con.
trihuted largely to the church. If in
the crash of 1857 Col. Whiteley went
down, many others did also; hut I'D To
that timewe doubt nothe had paid more
taxes than his opponent has paid in all
the few years he has lived here that he
was not in Office. and since that time the
Colonel has paid much more. as profes.
sional men have been pretty heavily
taxed and Mr.. Valentines light tar was
borne By the city from which he received
an annual salary, much higher than any
sum he Gould make at anything else
But We have digre=sed to much Our
neishbor desires to know what alaarn-
ing or eloquence does for city How
shall we answer one who SEEING never to
have remeu berea Rome or Greece, or Ci-
oero or Demssthoaos. or Virgil OF Homer?

ATTEMPT To STEAL THE BoDy OF
GENERAL SHERIDRN's FATHRT, The
Semmerset (Ohio) Press states that
few evenings since 1t was discovered
that the grave Of John Sheridan, Sr,
father of General P. II. Sheridan, in
the Catholic cemetery III that place,
had been tampered with. Father
Noon was notified of this condition OF
the grave snd he, with John L. Shcri-
dan and DR., J. D. Mckinney, proceed
ed to make gu inspection of it, which
ehowcd that the earth as far down as
the boards covering the coffin had
been thrown out, bnt that the body
had not been disturbed. 1t is believed
that the resurrectionists became alarm
ed and abandoned the work very hur
riedly, as they left spade and droop-
ed case containing apalr of spectacles
and G pencil. Tracts in the lane back
of the cemetery showed that they had
with them a one horse wagon and two
horses, The object of this attempted
grave robbery Is difficult to divine.
Mr.. Sheridan has been dead for more
than threo months, and It Is hardly
| likely that the body wuld be desired
for dissection. BY some 1t Is believed
that the robbers expected to get q
reward for the return of the body.
