A Health Yielding Stimulant.

It ia suicidal for man to drink ordinary liquor,
when he feels weak, to enable him to perform work
in hand. The fatigue which labor produces is in
creased teniold by the facilitating reaction OF the
stimulants of commerce, SO that the temporary in
vigoralion is purchased at fearful cost to health
A simulant, in order to impart healthful energy
should be indicated. The reason that llostetlera
stomach Bittera are so wonderfully eficacious as
restorative and preventive is that their alcoholic
basis Of pure Old Rye is mingled with vegetable
tonics and alternatives which are the most poten!
known to medical botanists. Their immediate OF
stimulative effect is to rouse the dormant energies
and their subsequent operation Is to permanently
invigorate, through the medium of stored diges
ton and ecreton, the various organs OF th" body

project held a.hrge meeting at the
Board of Tfade rooms, in Cincinnati,
last Tuesday, at which representa-,

Huntington to Cincinnati, with the

The organization Of committees was
perfected, and judging from the spir,
it of the meeting, it looks as ifa rail
road down the Ohio river at an early
day may be expected.
At present, our people are wholly
cngrosscd with the road up the Sclo,

verted therefrom until its success is
assured; after that, 4 deep interest
will be manifested in road down

INC west virginia Boundary,

4 clearer and more satisfactory
statement concerning the questioned
the disputed boundary line between
this State and Maryland, than any
We have yet seen, is that furnished
by Hon. c. J. Faulkner, in = recent
letter to the Preston County Herald.
There is no one in the State, perhaps,
who can speak more 'intelligently as
to the matter in controversy, or
whose opinion is entitled to greater
authority. As a commissioner Of
Virginia, appointed about the year
1882, he was employed to make a re-
port to the old State, concerning a
claim of Slaryland.to a portion ofthe
territory of Virginia, now included
within the limits of this State, and
embracing the counties known as
Mineral, Hardy, Grant, Pendleton,
Randolph, Tucker and Preston.
This claim was founded upon grant
of land by Charles l. to Lord Balti-
more in June, 1882, the land being
described as "that region bounded by
a line drawn from Watkins Point
on Chesapeake Bay to the ocean on
the east, thence to that part Of the
estuary of Delaware on the north
which lieth under the 4Oth degree
where New England is terminated;
thence in a right line by the degrees
aforesaid to the meridian Of the foun-
tain of the Potomac; thence following
its course by its farther bank to its
conhuencc."-E.

The victory of Chas 4. Dana, edi-
tor of the Sun, y. Y. over the Wash
ington ring, of which Grant and
Shepherd are liking pins" is received
all over the country with unspeak-
able delight. The object of the ring
was to get him to Washington on a
writ OF attachment. He was sum
moned as 4 witness in case of the
particulars Of which he was wholly
and entirely ignorant. This was the
bait by which they expected to en-
trap him, and when once in their
clutches to prosecute him at a great
disadvantage. He was taken into
custody by a United States Marshal,
and the case came up before Judge
Blatchford, who, after patient hear
ing in the matter, decided that Mr..
Dana should be released, and he was
discharged. This decision is one
that affects the entire press OF the
country. While We are greatly
pleased to note the important point
the editor has won, we feel still
more Pleased to know that there ex'
lists such an..impartial, Ring-defying

a strange and unexpected result
connected with the Civil Rights Bill
is that its constitutionality will most
likely, be first tested in the northern
city of New York. A negro has al
ready brought suit against 4 theatre
cal treasurer Of that'city for refusing
him a ticket, and it is understood
that it is the disposition of all mana
gers there, to make 4 direct issue at
once with the colorcd population,
and carry the questions up to the
highest tribunal, and have in finally
settled. Since the object Of the bill
was simply to create confusion at the
South, until after the election, it is
highly probable that the idea Of the
trouble commencing in the North,
was not thought of by therevolution-

of Virginia, and formerly editor OF

cd lecture in New York city on the

prospect ahead is by no means 4
brilliant one for the colorcd man.
He thinks his destiny is to dwindlc
away and decay. He said that in
Richmond the mortality records
show the death of two blacks to every
white" and this, he said, held true
everywhere in the South. 1nfanti-
eide, too, was fearfully prevalent
among them, while their number
will never be increased by immigra-
ton; and in the contest against such
fearful odds of 100000 of an infer
ior race, with 100000 of u super
ior, one could easily perceive what
the result must be and the census Of
1880, would surely show the begin
ing Of the end.

Republican there is a great scene

refusal will prove disastrous in the
