Happy Influence of "a Great Specific.
For the preservation or recovery of health
and strength. the diet should be wholesome
and nutritious. When it happens that the
almentary processes are disturbed by impro-
per or half masticated food, the best remedy
from the evil results of abusing the digestive
organs is Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, a most
agreeable, prompt and gentle remedy for dys-
pePsia, and for the bilious and evacuative ir.
regularities which result from it, The liver
and bowels, in common with the stomach.
The refuse of the system is carried of thro
its natural outlet a healthy flow and secre-
ton of the bile is promoted. and a powerful
impetus is given to assimilation in conse-
quence of its use. 1t BEAUTIFULLY stimulates
the bladder and kidneys when they are mac.
tive, and by its tonic and regulating action
fortifies the system against malaria.

brought to light in all their enormities-
All this was said with philosophic calm
ness, and without any heat whatever.
In regard to his own political future.
Mr.. T;lden had nothing to say, except
that he could not see any possible con-
tipgency which could induce him to be a
candidate for, or to seek an election to a
seat in the United States senate. He felt
entirely confident of the success of the
Democratic party this fall in all the
large central States, and especially in this
State by a very large majority believing
that events were all pointing in that di-
rection. To the charge that he has been
seeking to control nominations Of the
next Democratic State convention OF
New York, he gave direct denial, and
added that he thought it was unwise to
interfere in any way as between numer-
ous friends who are seeking positions
on tho State ticket. His absence abroad
during the time for holding the conven-
tion selecting delegatee would, he said,
preclude any interference on his part.
He thought, however, that the drift of
public sentiment was toward a new tick
ct altogether, with none of the present
incumbents upon it. He hoped that the
ticket would be so made up as to be re-
cognized as thoroughly able, strong and
upright. He appeared to be especially
anxious that the Democracy should Sc
cure a majority in the next State senate,
in order that the evils which have been
brought about by the Republican control
of that body might be corrected.

.MEET ME IN HEAVEN"

The Pittsburg Commercial Gazette, in
relating the story of the collision in that
city, tells of Il boy who was fatally shot
during the prevalence of the riot:
One of the most affecting Incidents was
that in connection with the death of a
little boy. He was shot in the abdomen,
ana was carried into a saloon near by.
A Physician was summoned, while tho lit
tie sufferer lay upon d piece of oil-cloth
spread upon tho floor. The life-blood
was ebbing from him and covering the
cloth with gore, but he was conscious,
and able to talk u little at intervals
He kept calling for "water, water," and
eagerly drank the precious liquid handed
him. Just after one Of his paroxysms OF
pain he sesmed to become conscious OF
the fact that things earthly would soon
fade from his view. HS was boy o1
more than ordinary intelligence, and us
the fact of his approaching dissolution
became impressed upon him, he asked
that his mother be called. They told
him she had been sent for, but might not
reach him in time. ''Then," said he, eff
I die, tell mother to meet me in heaven"
Later in the evening the gates of pearl
were opened and his spiriJ entered the
eden Of everlasting rest.

ras, formerly a resident of this parish,
and prior to the war the manager-in.
chief of the extensive Whitmel Pugh
plantation was lashed to death in Iberia
Parish few days since. Our informant
posals to a young lady in that vicinity as
alleged by her, aud that she disclosed the
facts to her father, 'wiereupon the old
gentleman and his four SONS captured
Barras and rendered him powerless by
means of ropes. Barras was asked whcth-
er he preferred to be shot or whipped.
The poor man selected the latter alterna-
tive, snpposing that he would be sonndly
flogged and released. But in this con-
lecture he made a sad mistake, as the Sc"
queI proved, for he was literally tiaycd
alive until life was extinct.
We arc most strenuously in favor of the
protection of the chastity of women all
the world over, and will admit that GER
tain cases arise so aggravated in their
nature as to justify swift and harsh pun
ishment, but unless some other facts are
developed in the present instance beyond
those we have in our possession, TIE kill
ing of Barras in this brutal manner
should be classel as a murder; and if
not legally noticed might lead to serious
consequences.
Mr.. Barras married the daughter OF
Eugene Depuis, Esq, large property
holder in this parish, and now, as he
was while here. 4 respected citizen ofLa-
fourche Parish.
While Mr.. Barras was here he was high
ly esteemed, and his inIuman and fearful
death is deeply deplored. If we mistake
not, he was nephew of the late Judge
Barras of Terrebone Parish
West Feliciana sentinel. (St. Francisville, La.) 1876-1877, 1877-08-04
PLEASANT BEDROOMS.

There is nothing more Indicative
of refinement and genuine culture
in a family than bright, cheerful
and tastefully decorated bed cham-
bers. Tasteful decorations does
not necessarily mean expense, and
il is possible to make a chamber
look very pretty at very small
outlay. Indeed, in many instances
no outlay at all will be required
beyond what would be incurred ur-
der any circumstances. The wo-
men of a family, especially, are
apt to pass a good portion
of their time in their bed
chamber, and in some households
the sleeping apartments are used
alike for sewing rooms, sitting
rooms and nurseries. 1t is worth
while to obtain all the innocent pleas
ure we can ind in this life, and
there can be no doubt that life is
pieasanter if most of it's hours arc
passed in chee-ful-looking apart
mentS.
