Whatever may be the Presidents re-
servations, the Republicans will gladly
relieve Themselves of the dead weight
that has been hanging upon them for
two years, BY accepting his letter as a
positive withdrawal from the canvass as
candidate for denomination. This being
the cnse, why will not President Grant
asks the New York Herald, mark the
closing portion of his term by grand
and noble policy of justice toward the
South; by rallying around him as his
advisers men of strong minds and honest
hearts; by cleansing the Government of
its hideous corruptions, and by gene
raj patriotic and wise policy? He has
yet time to do much for the nation, and
to hand down his name to posterity in
connection with those of the best of the
American Presidents. Will he be equal
to the task?

a DEAD DELusIoN. N.-Tho theory that
human beings whose strength has been
exhausted by pain and sickness can be
restored by depicting medicines and
water Cruel, if not absolutely dead de-
lusion, is in the last agonies of dissolu-
ton. At length it is understood that
strength cannot be purged into debili-
tated frame, though life may easily be
purged out of it, and that it is about as
wise to withhold healthful stimulnnt
from the weak, in the expectation that
they will rally without one, as it would
be to deprive lamp Of oil and expect it
to burn the brighter for it. The immense
and uniform success which has attended
the use Of that wonderful combination
of pure stimulant with the finest me-
dicinal herbs, known as Hostetter's Sto-
mach Bitters, has largely assisted in dis
pelling the absurd chimera. Frantic Mt
tempts are made to revive it, but in vain.
When the sick feel that their strength ia
departing, and that unless invieorated
they must utterly break down, It is in
vain to tender them feculent slops in the
place Of genuine restoratives. Thew
may be imposed upon in this way once.
but the imposition cannot be repeated.
They desire 20 be refreshed, comforted.
braced up, and decline to be griped q
second time. Under the operation of
the Bitters, on the other hand, all the
processes necessary 10 physical restora-
ton go on simultaneously. The system
is stimulated and toned, the bowels re-
gulated, the appetite cultivated, the
nerves composed and the condition of
the blood improved at one and the same
time by o single medicine. Common
sense tells us that such o preparation
