Shattered Constitutions Rebuilt.

In the use of wholesome invigorant lies the only
hope of rebuilding ashattered constitution. Hostel
ter's Stomach Bitters are not only an eminently
wholesome tonic but they rectfy with most saisfac
tory prompttude arrangements of the stomach, liver
and bowels which are incompatible with return of
health and strength. When the system is enfeebled
by disease by the wear and tear of business le by
continuous mental anxiety, by the exhaustion conse-
quent upon late hours and fast living, by over-work
and by sedentary habits the Btters the most re-
liable medicinal agent for imparting permanent vigor
to the debiHtated frame. The new stock of vitality
which they infuse into broken down physique, and
the orderly action which they establish among the Or
gans of digestion, secretion and evacuation, moreover
constitute its best safeguard against maaral disease

treasury; for civil establishment at the forego-
ing yards, - thousand dollars"
Mr.. Kelly made a point of order on the
amendment that it was new legislation and not
be matter of gross extravaganza to sell League
Island, much more to retrocede it. After long
discussion, in which Messrs. Randall and O Neill
argued in support of the point of order, the
point was overruled by the chairman (Clymer)
on the ground that the abandonment of those
navy yards would retrench expenditures even
though the abandonment might not be mat
ter of good policy or economy.

thought this was an unjust reflection On the

church. If there were any such among the

Carl Schurz's Views.
CHICAGO, May 22.-Hon. Carl Schurz is in
town today. In conversation with Tribune
reporter he expressed very freely his views on
the Presidential candidacy. He considers Bris-
tow the best man for the Republican nOmina-
ton because of his availability with all classes
and parties including the independent reform
ers, because he has been most active prosecu-
tor of official frauds and corruption with which
the great mass have no sympathy, and because
throwing him out would cast more or less obi
UNI upon the party. He considers
Charles Francis Adams, an excellent
choice, but thinks there is little probability of
his becoming a candidate. He speaks Of Blaine
disparagingly as candidate for the Presidency
because he lacks the record of reformer which
Brstow possesses. Schulz says the sentiment
of the country is strongly for reform and that
the pc rty which wins must do it on reform
basis and candidates.
