Mineral Remedies Superseded.

All except those who refuse to be con-
vinced by the most positive proof, admit
the Infinite superiority of Hostetter's Stom-
ach Bitiers to the mineral remedies which
1t has to very great extent superseded, and
which, it is to be hoped, for the sake of the
human stomach, may eventually be aban-
doned altogether. The bitters are a most
potent corrective of disorders of the liver,
stomach and kidneys Habitual constipa-
ton, dyspepsia, bowel complaints, and the
numerous and changeful symptoms which
indicate internal weakness or disease, are in
every instance not only relieved, but cured,
by persistent and systematic use of this
sovereign remedy. Intermittent and bill
lous remittent fevers may be surely pre-
vented by daily use of this powerful but
pleasant and mild tonic. Physical vigor
is tie best armor in which to encounter
disease. Secure it by recourse to the Bit
tiers

An EXPLANATION.

With all the other Internal Revenue Of
fcers in Milwaukee Revenue Agent S. j..
Conklin, of Waterloo, has been suspended.
1t is but justice, however, to Mr.. Conk1in,
to say that his supersedure did not arise
from any charges having being brought
against him or that he was at all implicated
in the late revenue frauds. The change is
made from the conviction with the Secre-
tsry of the Treasury that it is better under
all the circumstances to have a new set of
officers in localities where frauds against
the revenue have been committed.

At the New York Store.

The fine double store Of NJ. A. Hirsh,
east Of the Post Office, known as the New
York Store, is the great centre of attrac-
ton these days. The reason for its crowds
of customers daily may be discovered on
stepping inside when such large piles of
beautiful goods meet the eye as to almost
bewilder the beholder. Chief among the
attractions is the immense assortment of
rich and varied dress goods in all the
latest styles. Every thing in the line Of
dress goods can be obtained at the New
York store from calico to a silk, and no
lady in want of dress, no matter how
fastidious she may be, need turn her back
on the New York store. The variety and
extent of Mr.. Hirsh's stock of Shawls was
never before seen ia this city. The most
fashionable patterns and choicest material Is
are to be found on the shelves. TIE same
may be said of the assortment of cloaks which
for endless variety and richness of fabric
defy competition. But that stock of Ladies
Summer Suits is among the specialties at
the New York Store which should com
mand the attention Of lady customers in
want of beautiful garments for the warm
weather. They are exquisite in design and
marvel of cheapness. These suits must
be seen to be appreciated and they are
selling fast. We might call attention to a
| number of other kinds of goods at the New
| York store which are worthy otmentio n
but our space forblds. We will merely sag
IN general way that every article ia the
line OF dry goods can be found at this mann
moth concern. IF Mr. Hirsh continues as
he has started out there will no longer be
any necessity for our citizens to go te
Milwaukee or Chicago for their dry goods

PeStiferOuS,

The farmers Of this section are somew hat
apprehensive Of visitation from chinch
bugs the present summer and fears are en- :
tertained that these pests may work with
serious effect in the grain. We learn from
reliable sources that myralds of chinch
bugs have appeared in different portions of
the town of Watertown within few days
past. The air was so thick with them
that they could be taken by the handful.
The danger however, is not from these but
those produced from the eggs these bugs
deposit We are also informed that in a
certain section of Pennington grasshoppers
have appeared quite numerous, but we are
not certain that these are of the species
that is working such destruction to the
crops west of here. We trust not. A
grasshopper plague would be asad calamity
to Wisconsin.
