When the physical energies are over
tasked or flag through weakness or dis
ease, they used prompt reinforcement.
Renewed vigOr is most speedily supplied
through the medium of a tonic stimulant
and among medicinal resources of that
class, Hostetter's Stomach Bitters as
suredly deserve a prominent place.
Weakness, whether constitutional or
arising from disease or Oyerfatigue, can
not be better compensated for than by Il
resort to this prime Strengthening corrli-
al. The unfeebled invalid, the cOnva-
leScent end the aged and infirm find that
it is an unfailing source of visor and
comfort. Its combined tonic and altera-
tive properties also constitute it an in
valuable remedy for indigestion, weak
ness of the organs of uriaation constipa-
ZION, torpidity of the liver, and many
other irregularities and disabilities, and
render it an invaluable protection against
malaria, as well as disorders of the stonl-
ach and bowels.

We notice on our streets the elegant
spring wagons of the Southern Calendar
Clock Company, lately received by them
here. \ more notable instance of what
pluck and energy can accomplish has
rarely ever come under our observation,
than the success they have achieved In
selling their noted Clock, Fashion" to
the people Of this and adjoining counties.
Making their headquarters here about
two months ago they have sold large
number of their celebrated clocks. Ger
tainly there must b- something supe-
rior in the construction OF these clock TO
warrant such immense sales, and the
names appended to the recommendation
in tO-d5y's issue of Our paper j. a sum
Gent guarantee Of that tact. Their man
ner of conducting the business is, TO have
only one price, so thai purchasers may
feel sure in every instance that they are
not being imposed upon or having an ex-
tOrtion practiced upon them. Wa cOrdi-
ally recommend the Southern Calendar
Clock Company, and their business to the
patronagGof the public, and wish them
abundant success.

EFT TU RUTEl-The jackson Sun, of
last week, under the caption of ''Newspa-
per postage, . contains the following:
''.The Post Office books show that the
newspapers published in this city pay
postage As follows:
jackson Sun, 81 pounds @2cts. per h.,
$l.35.
wing and Tribune, 4s pounds c12cts.
per Id. 96ctS.
Dispatch 10 pound, @2ct. per ID. 20cts
The sun pays on 10 pounds more than
the Wing aud Tribune, aud 81 pounds
more than the Dispatch, and on 0 pounds
more than both the Wing and Tribune
and Dispatch"
After the appearance of the above, the
mail sent out weekly by the WING AND
TRIBUNE" was weighed on the scales of
Mr.. James A. Collins, by Mr. w y. Col
Inns, and our foreman, in the presence Of
one or two witnesses, and was found to
reach 20 pounds This estimate does not
include our horse mail, which win weigh
between Is and % pounds. As far as any
one connected with this Office is concern
cd, this is the only time our mail has
been weighed, and hence it was simply 4
matter of guess work about the weight
previously. In justice to ourselves we
make this statement, and so far as we are
concerned, as johnson used to say, ''that
is an end ont"
We have always felt kindly toward the
editors of the "Sun,' and what motive
they could have had in giving publicity
to the above we are at a loss to determine.
That the "Sun'' is a good newspaper we
do not deny, but why it should go out of
the way to attack friendly neighbor is
to us profound enigma. We have al
ways recognized in the "Sun" an honest
energetic and liberal competitor in the
broad field of journalism, and knowing
the gentlemen who conduct it, as we do,
we are somewhat astOnished that they
should thrust us, when harmony has in
variably been our aim.

From the Union City Reviile.
Readers, it is our especial intention
this week to call your earnest attention
to the Southern Calendar Clock Compa-
ny, which you will find in a double col
umn ON another page. This clock is the
only kind of clock used by all persons of
business who have become acquainted
with the regular and accurate workings
of this valuable time piece. This kind of
clock is worth AT least five times as much
as any other clock sold here. We advise
our friends who are merchants, mechan-
les, farmers or professional men to buy
one of the Fashion Clocks; they show
You the day OF the month, the name Of
the day, the hour, minutes and seconds
of time whenever you turn your eye to
ward it. One of them is sitting in the
Revcille Office, where every true friend
of good time, and every hard worker for
honest time can examine for themselves.
A Regulator in every sense of the
word. We have to say for the gentlemen
who are representing the interest of the
company in this county, that they are
gentlemen of force and energy; high
toned and fair in all their transactions
They have complete and handsome two
horse outfits, and will deliver clocks
wherever they are wanted. Their motto
H., ''if the people will do their part by
the clock, they will do more than their
part by them" We say, patronize that
which is fair, honest, upright and prof.
table.

lAPoRTANT IF TRUE.-We are told that
an infallible remedy against blues, mel

by the ''pricks of conscience" there are
none half so effieacious Is the possession
of a receipt for one years subscription
in advance to the paper (patrOnized by
the individual afllicted.) 1t should be
carefully folded and carried in the vest
pocket, where it can be readily found on
the first indication OF returning symp-
toms of the annoying disease. We heart
lily commend the recipe to soAe of our
readers that we wot of, with the sincere
desire that they may speedily test its cut
rative powers.
