what the Neryons Require.

What the nervous require more than any
thing else is IMMIGRATION. Sedatlves alone
Will not cure nervousness. The reason that
the nerves are so susceptible is that they are
weak. Compensate for this deficiency of
strength, and over-acute nervous sensibillty
disappears. The most rational, wholesome,
and agreeable tonic is Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters. Medical men recommend its use for
the cure OF general debility, knowing II to
possess strengthening properties of the
highest order, and at the same time TO be q
means ofreforming these bodily irregularl-
ties which induce nervousness and loss of
vigor. 1t is the best known remedy for dys-
pepsia, whether nervous or bilious, and is
powerfully conservative OF regular habit
sofbody. As it's notorious, that, those who
are afflicted with weak nerves, blliousness
or constipation, are peculiarly liable to the
influence Of malaria, IL is invaluable to such
The Dallas daily herald. [volume] (Dallas, Tex.) 1873-1887, 1875-05-01

In Is reported that Major Van Handt,
Of Fort Worth, chairman Of the sena'
torial committee for this district, In
tends TO call district nominating con-
yention. THE HERALD believes this Ia
certainly amistake, and that themajor,
so far, Is only seeking the sense of the
democracy Of rarrant, MS to whether
they will nominate one man from
their own county, which Is all right II
such should be their wish. IfTarrant
agrees on her man, as one of the three
delegates, the democracy Of Dallas will
support him, and so of Ellis. SO far rs
known, however, the democrats OF
Dallas want no convention for the
whole district nor in their own county
They are ready to support the choice Of
Tarrant and Ellis for one delegate
each, but prefer to select their own
man in their own way. Such Is I'M
questionably the general feeling now.

Ii GOVERNOR COKE would see to IL
that murderers in other portions Of the
state were punished, instead of their
crime being winked at by the author
tiles, he would have more of the SYM
pathy of good people when he asks for
aid on. the border than he is now enti-
tied to.
The above is taken from the Topeka
(Kansas) Commonwealth, owned and
edited by man named Il. p.
Baker, who also fills the position of
postmaster at Denison, Texas. He
was at one time connected with an in
dividual of this city in the publication
of a praise-be-to-God-E. j. Davis-loyal-
league-U. s. Grant sheet at Denison
called the Red River Journal. The
fellow is too well known for his men,
dacity for his statements to be re-
ceived with anything but contempt.

From the New York sun, April 23l
Mr.. Beecher's testimony in regard to
his payment OF money to Mr.. Mout0n
for Mr.. Tiltons benefit, reveals u very
lluctuating state of mind. Part of the
time he thought he had been black
mailed, and part of the time part he
had not. When he listened to his law
yers, and when he wrote his defense
last summer, he was of one opinion {;
but when he was left to himself he was
of another. He reminds III of the
darkey who had taken n ten dollar bill
which his employer pronounced n
counterfeit. A few weeks aiterward
he was asked what had become of it,
"Why, you see, massa, | never was
quite clear in my mind about dat are
bill. Some days fought him him bad,
and some days l fought him good !;
and one of dem days dat ] thought him
good, | jis' passed him away"

at most there will be upon that point
population of 100000. London will
then be surpassed, as London has sur
passed Pekin and the first city ON the
globe, both for wealth and population,
will be New York. Cities have their
destinies, and in the mysterious phe-
nomenon that presides at their birth
and determines their locality, the sea-
sons for their future development
rests in the germ. Nature, at thh COM
mencement of the ages, had, doubt
less, fashioned this point of Manhat-
tan with a marked preference. Was
not the situation happily chosen, among
all other, to be used sometime for the
cradle of the first city of the world?

FAILURES IN BUSINESS.

A quarterly circular of failures fol
the first three months of the year, just
issued by Messrs. Dun, Barlow " Co.,
representssa more favorable view Of
the trade of the country than might
have been looked for. There Is eyi.
IDENTITY a wonderful elasticity in our
commercial affairs and favorable
outlook for revival of prosperity. The
figures show 1888 failures, with gross
liabilities of SSS,S73,00O, being only
about $73, 900 more than one quarter of
the amount of the previous year, and
nearly $40, 100000 less than for cor
responding period in 1873.
From the circular it appears that
thus far in 1875 the failures have not
been largely in excess of previous
years, while the amount of liabilities
shows no Increase whatever above the
average of years. Considering the
continued depression in numerous in
terests, the exceeding severity of the
winter, and the lateness of the spring,
the conclusion is on the whole eneour-
aging. 1t was to be expected that
numerous wrecks from the panic of
1873 would be discovered long after the
storm had passed, and probably not q
few of the above failures can be thus
characterized. The ability to stand
the pressure Of these continued hard
times, and the steady maintenance of
credit which the above figures imply,
under all the adverse circumstances of
the season, is subject for congratu-
lation.
