The nervous, weakly invalid does not
enjoy life, but merely ''lTags out exist
ence,' - a the phrase Is. United for the
active pursuits Of life, and Incapable of
partsking Gifts pleasures, 10 which health
alone can give a zeSt; disinclining to So
eial intercourse, ami prey to melan
choly, the vaIetudiuarian is indeed an
object of pity. Yet there is nothing in
all this that cannot be remedied By that
genlal Alternative tonic and nervine, Hos
letters Stomach Bitters, which supplies
deficient stamina, braces the nervous sys-
tenn, and overcOmes those bodily irTegu-
Iarities 70 which nervous weakness is
most frequently attributable. Diseases
of the kidney or bladder, imperfect di-
gestion and uterine troubles are fertile
sources of debility. Their eradieatiOns
however, becomes "a matter of certainty
when Hostetter's Stomach Bitters are
systematically used FOR that purpose.
The Bitters likewise ahnihilate and pre-
vent fever and ague and other debilita-
ting febrile complaints of a malarial IA
ture.

MEXICO.

GALVESTON, April l9.-J. j. Haynes,
United States commercial agent, has tel
egraphed to the state department from
New Laredo, Mexico, under date OF
April 10th, that the revOlutiohists have
levied forced loans on merchants, and
said If the same is not paid by the 18th
the stores will be forced open and goods
sold TO double the amount demanded.
The amount is divided between ten mer-
chants, five of them Americans. The
secretOry of war has directed orders to
be given to the department TO grant the
protection asked by the American citi-
Zens in New Laredo against such lawless
Outrages, as the government of Mexico
is unable TO prevent them, but wishes
caution to be exercised.
The Galveston News special from
Brownsville of the 18th, says: 1.-The fol-
lowing has just been received from Ring
gold, April 18th, ut nine o'clock this
evening. The stage from Monterey,
which arrived at Comargo this evening
brings the following, which may be con-
sidered reliable: The government main
tains a firm attitude; DacirOgo, with five
hundred men, is hunting for Treyino,
and it is thought they met at Ramos to-
day; General Pedro Martinez is expected
in Monterey with six hundred cavalry !;
Generals Axanella and PalaciOs are Ell
route to the frontier with their respective
corps; General COnda entered Monterey
Saturday last with four thousand infant
~ from the mountains with several
pieces of cannon and funds TO pay the
troops; NaraRjO will enter Mier to-day
with six hundred men. General FuerO,
commanding the forces at Monterey,
don't allow correspondence of any kind
from the interior to pass Monterey. All
the telegraph lines between Monterey
and Mexican frontier are in good work
ing order.
Rio GRANDE CITY, April 19.-Mier was
taken yesterday afternoon at one O'Clock,
by NaranjO and Nara, with four hundred
and fifty men. All the custom-house
officials and employees have gone 20 Guei-
riono. The citizens made no resistance,
the revolutiOnists entering without OpPo-
sition. NaranjO is expected at Camargo
this evening. Large forces of govern
ment troops are on the way to the Rio
Grande, and some hard fighting may be
looked for within few days.

SILVER REsUMPTIoS.-It really seems
now as if the new resumption bill would
go into effect, and that we are to have sill
yer in lieu of the fractional currency
The mode in which it is to be introduced
is as follows, according to Treasurer
New: The first section of the specie re-
sumption act provides that the Secretary
may, at his discretion, tissue silver coins
through the minis, sub-Treasuries, pub
lie repositories and postofiices of the Uni
ted States" Treasurer New favors the
issue through the Treasury exclusively,
requiring ali parties wanting toexchange
fractional currency for silver coins to
send their currency TO the Redemption
Bureau, when warrants will be forward
ed to the mint, sub-Treasury, or other
designated depository of the United States
at the point from which the currency is
received, for an equal amount of silver
coins. 1t is quite probable this plan will
be adopted, rs the Treasury Department
alone has the working force necessary to
count the fractional currency forwarded
for redemption, with that expedition
which will be demanded.

The question has often been asked by

a SLIGHT CHANGE.-In looking over an
old paper, printed at Nashville many
yeas ago, our eyes fell upon the follow
ing dispatch, sent from Philadelphia, the
day Brownlow and Pryne commenced
their debate on slavery. Our parsOn has
undergone slight change since that
memorable debate. The dispatch says:
The debate on the question ''ShOuId
American Slavery be Perpetuated, OPEN
ed at the National Guards Hall this eyei.-
ing. The attendance was not large, and
the audience included few negroes
The debate was opened by Parson Brown
low, in a speech read by Gen. Small, of
this city. The argument contained
strong sarcastic and humorous language,
for which Brownlow is remarkable, writ
ten in his loose, careless style, but not
given with that peculiar emphasis for
which he is so noted. He argued that the
perpetuation of slavery was necessary TO
humanity and sanctioned by God, and
will exist to the end of time. His bibli-
cal extracts for proof of his argument
were numerous. He would make no de-
Tense of the slave trade, although he be-
lieved its evils were exaggerated. In the
latter part of his speech he handled what
he styled that unmitigated generation of
Human beings, abOlitionists, without
gloves, creating applause and Kisses.

INDIANA.-On the 10Th inst. the Dem
ocrats of this State had rousing con-
vention, the largest ever held in the
State, and after expanding much gas
over Holman and Landers, they nOmi-
mated Jas. ID. Williams, an honest old
farmer for Governor, and whose popular
ity Is said to be unequaled in the State.
We subjoin their resolutions on the cur
rency, which have n greenbask tinge,
and are glad that they pronounce for the
repeal of the Resumption act of 1879.
RESOLUTIONS.
4. We believe i'm our ancient dOctrine,.
that gold and silver are the true and safe
basis Tor the currency, and we are in IA
vor of measures and policies that will
produce uniformity in value in the coin
and paper money Of the country, without
DESTROYING or embarrassing the business
and interests of the people.
5. We oppose the contraction OF the
volume of our paper Currency, and de-
clare in favor of the adoption of meas
ures looking to the gradual retirement Of
the circulation of the National Banks
and the substitution therefor of circulat-
ing notes, issued by authority Of the Gov
ment.
6. We recognize with patriotic satisfac-
ton the vast recuperative energies of our
country, and we observe that In spite of
the constant interference of the laws Of
commerce which has been practicsd, eur
currency has improved in proportion rs
our wealth has increased, aud the sense
of the national and local security has
been confirmed. We are, Therefore, of the
opinion that natural return to specie
payments will be promoted by the in
crease of national wealth and industries,
by the assurance of harmony at home
and peace abroad, and by strengthening
our public credit under wise and
economical administration of our nation
al affairs.
4. The legal-tendeF notes constitute d
safe currency, and are especially yalua-'
BILE to the debtor classes, because of its le-
gal-tender quality, and we demand tho
repeal of the legislation enacted by the
Republican party, providing for its with
drawal from circulation and the substltu-
ton therefor of national bank paper.
8. The act of Congress for the resump-
ton of specie payments on Jan. /, 1879,
was a party measure, devised in secret
caucus for party ends and forced through
the House Of Representatives without the
allowance of amendment or debate, un-
der party discipline. 1t paralyzes indus
try, creates distrust of the future, turns
the laborer and producer out of employ
ment, Is a standing threat upon business
men, and should ut once be repealed,
without any conditions whatever.

The Mississippi river, at Memphis, is
falling rapidly. Hopefieldis again above
water, and the trains on the Little Rock
railroad will commence running again
in few days. Farmers, who had sought
refuge from the floods in Memphis, are
returning to their plantations, and it is
now thought that the farming operations
in the bottom will not much longer be

The Memphis merchants are dissatis-
fled because Secretary Bristow failed to
designate Memphis as place for the re-
demption of fractional currency with
silver. In the whole South, only New
Orleans and Charleston are selected for
that purpose, and to send the fractional
currency to either st. Louis or Cincin-
natl, will cost fully \ cent in express
charges. The first National Bank of
Memphis it is said, has already arranged
70 have 1000 in silver sent them ut once.

other gentlemen of the Republican par
