Prompt Reinforcement.

When the physical energies are over
tasked or flag through weakness or disease,
they need prompt reinforcement. Renewed
vigor is most speedily supplied through the
medium o. a tonic stimulant, and among
medical resources of that class. Hostetter
Stomach Bitters assuredly deserve pre-
eminent place. Weakness, whether con-
stitutional or arising from disease or over
fatigue, cannot be better compensated for
than by resort to this prime strengthen
ing cordial. The enfeebled invalid, the
convalescent and the aged and infrm find
that it is an unfailing source of vigor and
comfort. Its combined tonic and Alternative
properties also constitute it an invaluable
remedy for indigestion, weakness of the or
gans Of urination, constipation, torpidity of
the liver, and many other irregularities and
disabilities, and render it an invaluable
protection against malaria, as we'll as lis
orders Of the stomach and bowels.

Rise up Geo. Bird.

MIR. Geo. W. Bird of the Jefferson
Banner, ard late private secretary to
bis excellency the late Gov. Taylor,
probably exerted more lung power in
proc aiming that the reform admins
tration '::was saving the State $500 a
day." than any other biped in the
State. Therefore, will Mr.. Geo. W.
Bird, who claimed to know all about
1t, and who was in position to know all
about it, explain the discrepancy be-
tween this unemployment clamor and
the fact that the contingent fund was
being depleted to the extent of at least
1000 more than ever before, and that
too In many cases'without any vouchers
to show where the money went to?
Gov. Washburn used about 5000 of
the contingent fund in his two years OF
service, and he had some extraordinary
claims upon it; Gov. Taylor expended
nearly $4,000 in the same time and
that too without any extraordinary
claims. Will Mr.. Bird explain the
numerous erasures and entries In the
contingent fund account book? Will
he state how it happened that sums
ranging as high as $500 were drawn
out at sundry times without any vouch.
er to correspond! Will he also ex-
plain how it happened that numerous
charges amounting to several hundred
dollars, and several OF them without
corresponding vouchers, were entered
upon the book in single day and that
the last day of the last year? The
people" who were being made rich
at the rate of $500 day." are begin.
ming to fear that there were leaks that
operated in the opposite direction quite
as efectually, and a satisfactory ex-
PLANTATION Of the above matters, by as
good an authority as Mr.. Bird, would
doubtless quiet their suspicious in some
degree Whitewater Register.

TUE Democrats account for their
terrible defeat in New Hampshire on
the ground that money was used and
votes openly bought. The men who
sold themselves at the polls must have
been Democrats, and this is cruel

against themselves. Are the Demo

Views In Washington ON the New
Hampshire Election.

WASHINGTON, March 15.-The re-
suit Of the election in New Hampshire
has disturbed the equanimity and
swagger on the Democratic side of the
House, and Democrats are confessedly
good deal puzzled and distressed
They resort to spiteful and sarcastic
method of explanation, which may be
illustrated by the expressions of Ben.
Hill and Senator Eaton, the two most
Jealous representatives of the 'Lost
Cause The former says that the
more rascality and fraud developed the
larger the Republican majortes SEN
ator Eaton says if the Democrats can
manage to prove tie connection Of
President Grant with some fraud, the
Republicans will probably carry Con-
necticut. A prominent Democratic
member from New York remarked that
it was pity that PendIeton's testi-
mony could not have been sent to
New Hampshire, for he thought that
might have Offset the Republican gains
from the Belknap scandal. When the
election is discussed in the presence Of
outsiders the Republican majority is
credited to the use of money and the
purchase of votes Privately, the ad-
mission among Democrats is freely
made that the nomination of a copper
head candidate, together with the Con-
iederate speeches of Hill, Tucker,
Sammy Cox and others, was what
lost the State The policy of silence
was not sufficiently adhered to- OF
course, Democrats will claim that the
result in New Hampshire is of little
account, any way, but nevertheless
they disappeared early from tn 9 streets
AID hotels last night, and to-day they
take rather unkindly the rallying which
they get from the Republican side of
the House The Republicans are gen.
orally surprised by the result as it was
not anticipated that the majority could
in any event be greater than few
hundred. Just how the election is in.
terpreted by different classes of politi.
clans does not yet appear. The toll
lowers of the different Presidential
candidates will be encouraged to meet
arguments against their favorites. and
will claim the result as showing that
any Republican can be elected next
fall All the leading Republicans not
committed to any particular following
say that it is now established that the
Republicans can elect their President
If they nominate good man The
defeat of Marcy is likely to lead to the
! defeat of Thurman as candidate be-.
fore the Democratic Convention, and
OF Hendricks also, and of others who
sympathized with the Confederacy dur
Ing the war. Justice Davis, OF the
upreme Court, is likely now to come
more prominently to the front as a
Dem ocratic candidate.
MILWAUKEE, March 17.--Reports
from the Black river region represent

some mills and other structures were

from other parts of the state. In
some cases villages and towns were

and damage done throughout the State
