Like an i'll wind, and cannot be mastered too
early. What is a trihing attack Of sickness
to-day, may, If unattended to, become a serf-
GUS case in aweek. Small ailments should be
nipped in the bud before they blossom into
full blown maladies. If this advice were at
tended to, many a heavy bill for medical at
tendance might be avoided. When the liver
is disOrdered, the stomach foul, the bowels
obstructed, or the nerves disturbed, resort
should be at once had to that supreme rene
dy, Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, a few doses
of which will restore healthy action and put
the system in perfect order. It is wise pre-
caution to keep this Incompatible preventive
in the house, since it checks with unrivaled
promptitude, disorders which breed others
far more dangerous, and in their latest devel-
opments are themselves often fatal.

tween them. The result was that it, too,
was more than half filed. The time at the
Presbyterian church was occupied by ad-
dresses from Capt. Laying and Mr.. Wen
zell, and by Col. Realf-the latter gentle
man having spoken some three-quarters of
an hour at the other church. Unfortunate
ly, his voice-from much speaking-was
husky to the last extent. While, therefore,
it was painful to him to speak, the ban
quet which his speeches were calculated to
afford, were considerably circumscribed in
richness and enjoyment At the close many
came forward and signed the pledge-how
many may he inferred from the fact that
of the 500 pledges brought with our visi-
tors. but few we're left, and the stock had
to be replenished from Pittsburgh the next
day.
At tbis meeting committee of fifteen
of our citizens was appointed to meet at
the Office of Mr.. Mccoy on the next after
noon, to consider and settle upon the best
course of action, in view of the wonderful
state of things which had been precipitated
upon us, and which demanded attention.
AT the suggestion of Capt. Laying, a
MONDAY prayer meeting was appointed at
the Presbyterian church for Monday; from
20 to 100 people assembled, and the time
