Appetite is a necessity. Without it, sufi-
cient food is not received into the stomach
either to nOurish the system or to give the
stimulus to the bowels which they require.
Both these organs and the liver become torpid
in consequence. and the blood grows poor in
quality and quantity. Improve the appetite,
therefore, and avoid such results. This is
most e~ffectually done with Hostetter's Stom-
ach Bitters, a tonic appetizer and Alternative
without a peer. 1t gives not only an un-
wonted zest for food. but enables the stomach
to digest and the system to assimllate it.
Flatulence, heartburn, nausea, and every
other concomitant Of indigestion, are removed
by it, as are also biliousness and constipation.
Jingle with health by its use, and it is the
leading remedy for dependency.

A wedding I'm ROrneo

On the wedding day the bride and
bridegroom are brought from oppo-
site ends of the village to a spot
where the ceremony is to be per-
formed. They are made to sit on
two bars of iron, that blessing as
lasting and health as vigorous may
attend the pair. A cigar and betul
leaf, prepared with the areca nut,
are next put in the hands of the
bride and bridegroom. One of the
priests then waves two fewls over
the heads of the couple, and in q
long address to the Supreme Being,
calls down blessings upon the pair,
and implores that peace and happi-
ness may attend the union. After
the heads of the afiianced have
been knocked against each other
three oIifour times, the bridegroom
puts the prepared leaf and cigar in
the mouth Of the bride, while she
does the same TO him, whom she
thus acknowledges as her husband.

other points. Mr.. Bristow's friends
say that he viii not change his

peatedly by his daring bravery.
He executed the first successful
cavalry attack in McClellan's army,
and conquered the first rebel stand.
ard. At the end of the war the
young warrior, who was then only
twenty-five years of age, had gained
the reputation of being one OF the
best leaders of the cavalry. For
merly his name was written "Cus-
tar" since his return from a trip
to Germany, however, he appears
to have written it Custer; his origi.
nal family name, however, was
Kuester.
THE PLACE WHERE CUSTER FELL.
AT his right lay Colonel Keogh,
at his left, his brother, Captain
Tom Custer, another brother, Bos-
ton Custer lay at his feet and
Colonel Cook, adjutant, almost at
his side-a fearful sight, even to
those battle-scarred veterans, not
unused to Indian atrocities. Every
form, once so full of life and health,
was now cold in the grasp of the
king Of terrors. Stripped, scalped
and mutilated almost beyond recog-
milton, with the sole exception of
the great L~opg-haired Chief (as
the Indians, who admired, and yet
feared him), delighted to call him.
BY some strange freak of admira-
ton for his undaunted bravery, the
savage hand was stayed, and the
barbaric pleasure of insulting and
disfiguring the fallen hero, so dear
to the savage heart, was foregone.

COUNTY DEMOCRATIC TICKET.
sUMMER ADVERTISING.

A word to business men on this
subject. The people read more at
this season than in the winter, when
they have more amusement, more
work and the days are shorter. The
man who keeps his name and bust
ness before the public during the
hot, dull weather will not be for
gotten in the fall. The country
customer who reads his Daily or
Weekly LEDGER through, line by
line, advertisements and all, will
consider him a live man and
call at his place of business when he
comes to town. If it is a retail
business, the city trade will flow
to the man who advertises. We
know it requires nerve to advertise
during months when there is moth
ing doing, but We believe it pays in
the end and often brings an imme-
date return. Those who do not
feel like putting in a double-column
sixteen-square advertisement, can
insert something smaller. 1t will
be read and the people will be
attracted to the place. When
the business season sets in
nearly everybody adyertises, the
papers are full, everybody is in
a hurry, and a business card is
more likely to be overlooked or
overshadowed by large, costly and
fashy advertisements. We say, adj
vertise in'the summer, even if you
90 a little lighter for it in the win
ter. 1t is a great mistake to wait
until business is at it hight to adj
y~ertise, for the effect cannot be the
same as if the effort had been made
sooner. People read, think, talk,
and form plans in the dull season,
and when the rush of business
comes their minds are p%re-occupied,
their connections formed, aud they
have little time to change about

VIA FETTEEMAN, July Is.
My last Information from Red
Cloud Agency was that the Chey-
ennes had left there to reinforce
the enemy in my front. AS this
takes away all the disturbing ele-
ments from hat section l have
ayailed myself of the Lieutenant
Generals permission and ordered
eight companiesof the Fifth cavalry,
under Col. Merritt, to join me at
this point. The best information l
can get from my front is
that the Sioux have three fighting
men to my one, although l have no
doubt of my ability to whip them
with my present force. A victory
would likely be one barren of re-
suits, and so l have thought
it better to defer the attack
until | can get the Fifth here
and then end the campaign with
one crushing blow. Hostile In
dams are, according to my latest
advice, encamped on Little Horn

-
Special Telsgrsphic Correspondence Of the
Courier Journal
WASHINGTON, July IA. - The
Committee on Ways and Means
will meet tomorrow to consider a
very able report by Mr.. Tucker, of
Virginia, upon the tobacco tax.
The report recommends:
First-Making licorice used in
tobacco free of duty.
S~econd-Allowing producers of
leaf tobacco to sell 500 worth
without tax.
Third-Reducing largely the tax
on retail dealers in leaf tobacco.
Fourth-Reducing the tax ON
tobacco from "A cents to 16 cents,
and on cigars and cheroots from So
to So per thousand.
Eifth-Providing for bonded
warehouses at different points for
manufacturing cigars of foreign or
foreign and native tobacco without
payment of tax and for export alone.
There is, however, little prospect
of a change in the tax at this
session.
ARMY APPROPRIATION BILL.
1t now looks as if the army APP
preparation bill would be cOmpro-
missed tomorrow, by allowing the
strength of the army to remain as
at present, and providing for a
commission to report a plan of re-
organization at the next session.
The Senate obstinately refuses to
consent to the necessary reforms at
this time, and the House will yield
rather than disband the army. If
the economy in this branch falls
short of the public expectation, the
fault lies with the Senate.
FINAL ADJOURNMENT.
1t is not believed that any reso-
luton to adjourn will pass the
House till the impeachment trial
shall be concluded.
ABSENCE OF CONGRESSMAN.
The absence Of members of the
House is becoming a very serious
feature, and there is danger of that
body being left without a quorum,
If the present exodus shall go on.
THE RESUMPTION ACT.
There is a feeling among Demo-
cratic members of extreme dissatis-
faction at the delay of the Banking
and Currency committee in report
ing a bill to repeal the resumption
act. L. @. W.

gardless of its effect on the Hayes
ticket, with which he is not in love.
The fact that he had no hand in
naming his successor, and that the
wOuld-be successor forgot to name
him as the second Washington in
his letter of acceptance, adds exas-
peration to disappointment. If re-
publics are ungrateful, what shall
we say of a party that turns out the
second Washington who saved the
country that they might be licensed
for eight years to steal everything
in sight2 But this is none Of our
fight. Let them have it out. Til
denis chances are improved whether
it goes on or ceases; whether Grant
brushes ont all disaffection in the
departments or quails before pub
lie sentiment. Every revolution of
the wheel advances the prospects

RUMPUs AMONG GRANTS OFFICE
HOLDERS.

No doubt remains that Grant has
made up his mind to weed out all
the Bristow men in the various de-
partments. This means immunity
to the whisky thieves not already
punished, if not a premium for per-
sonal adherence. Grants friends at
Washington, the few who pretend
to be in his confidence, say that he
feels satisfied that Secretary Bristow
acted toward him with duplicity
and used his Office to promote his
own ambition. Yet this is what
Grant has been doing with the Office

THE JETTIES.
Report from she Passes.

Report rom inc KhbBcos
New Orleans Republican, 6th.I
The steamship Hudson, of the
Cromwell Line, for New York, left
the city yesterday morning, and at
2 o'clock she grounded on the bar
at the head of South Pass. She
was got off, but again grounded in
the channel and at the lower end
of the jetties. She drew seventeen
feet one inch aft, and fourteen feet
forward. She grounded about the
place where the steamer Charles
W. Lord stuck last Sunday even
ing, drawing fifteen feet aft and
twelve feet forward, and had to be
helped off by a tugboat. The
steamship Morgan City, of the
Morgan Line, left her wharf on the
morning of the 4th inst. for New
York, via the South Pass and the
jetties. She entered the head of
the South Pass at 2 o'clock pm, and
grounded on the bar at that point,
and swung around across the chan
mel. She drew fourteen feet three
inches forward and fifteen feet two
%incpes aft. Two tug-boats were put
at work the following day trying to
pull her off, but without success,
whereupon two of Morgan's rail-
road ferryboats were sent down to
the South Pass for the purpose Of
tightening the vessel. About eight
hundred sacks Of corn were taken
off and the vessel was pulled off the
bar back into the river yesterday by
the two ferryboats, the steamer
Grafton and two other tugboats.
She was reloaded from her lighters
and yesterday went to sea through
Southwest Pass. This has proved
a costly experiment to the owners
and it is fair to presume they viii
seek deep water hereafter.
