The Congressional Democratic con-
vention met at Nacogdoches on Wedncs-
day last, and nominated Hon. John II.
Reagan by reclamation. Suitable rcso-
lutions were adopted by the convention.
The first reathrms and adopts the plat
form and nominees of the St Louis con-
vention the second recommends n
thorough organization. of the Democrat
ic party in every precinct and county in
the district; the third heartily pledges
the active, earnest and united support
of the party to the nominee of the con
vention, and the last recommends the
appointment of two canyasscrs in each
county in the district, whose duty it
shall DO to canvass their respective
counties ~ thoroughly as practicable
between this and the next election and
arouse the people as far as possible, to
aproper sense Of the great and vital i'm
portance OF the pending campaign. Az.
ter the nomination, Judge Reagan who
was present, being called for spoke for
over two hours, giving an account of his
services in Congress--now he had en-.
deavored to serve this State in what he
has succeeded, in what failed, and what
would yet be adopted, with reasons for
the delay. He described the political
situation as it stands, assigning reasons
why the Republicans could no longer
be intrusted with the management of
the government and closing with full
financial exhibit claiming that the
South and West were much oppressed
by present revenue laws, compared with
Eastern and New England States, which
held the wealth of the country. The
convention then adjourned sine die.

While North Texas would appreciate
the appointment of Captain $, j.

TnE HERALD is of the opinion that Mr..
Epson should take tho place of Mr..

Epson is from Northeast Texas, and
the West seems fairly entitled to the pc

DEFICIENT nutrition produces anemia or
poverty of the blood arising from imperfect
or chronic disease, and issnot confined to
any particular class of life or sex. People
who suffer from hemorrhage, and females
who meustruate excessively are among the
chief sufferers. Analysis of the blood re-
veals according to the duration of the sick
ness marked deficiency in the red cor
puscles with probably q diminution of
tibrine and poverty of albumen in the
liquor sanguine. To effect cure, proper
attention must be paid to diet, and the pro-
noting of the natural secretions of the ali
mentary canal by the use of stimulant
tonic is an absolute necessity. Such tonic
stimulant has been discovered and is found
in the Home Stomach Bitters.

Mr.. JAMES MORRIS dropped dead in his
residence yesterday morning. He had been
cheerful during the morning and had taken
hearty breakfast, after which he had
stepped out and ordered his saddle horse
gotten ready for him to come to town; but
returned hurriedly into the house and asked
Mrs. Morris to take his coat off as soon as
possible, and while she was in the act of
doing SO he fell back and expired before
she could remove the garment. Mr.. Nor
ris had been suffering more or less of late
with rheumatism in his shoulders and

his death was caused from rheumatism of
the heart. Tine funeral will take place this

The Season Of Intermittents.

All miasmatic complaints, in other words,
all disorders generated by unwholesome ex-
halations from the earth or water, are pre-
valent at this season. In every section sub
iect to the visitation of fever and ague, or
other forms of intermittent disease, the
causes which produce these maladies are
now actively at work. This, therefore, is
period of the year when the inhabitants
OF such districts should prepare their sys-
TENS to meet the unwholesome condition of
the atmosphere by course of tonic and
Alternative treatment. Foremost among the
invigorants, recommended by time and ex-
perience as a means of fortifying the system
against all endemic and epidemic msladles,
stands Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. By a
timely use of the bitters, the feeblest resi-
dent of an unhealthy soil may escape the
sickness, which, without the aid of this
potent ally of nature, will be apt to over
take the strongest. eA2
