SPECIAL NOTICES,

E THE GREAT HEALTH RE-
STORER.-In all ages of the world the skill and
scientific attachments of man have been direct
ed to study of the human system and dis
covery of the various ills to which it is heir. IT.
after years of constant application, some distin-
guiShed physician has succeeded in compound
ing an agent by which the slightest ache may
be overcome, he has been hailed as a great
benefactor of his race, and with great propriety
the world have gladly sung pseans to his praise
This being proper, in the discovery of remedy
for single disease, how much more indebted
are the whole human family to the inventor of
BAKERS BITTERs, a medicine that has stood
the test Of time, and proved a panacea for Dys-
pepsia, Diarrhoea, Cholera MOrbus, Cramp
Cholic, Giddiness, Nervous Debility, Loss of APP
petite, and Sour Stomach, while the various
nostrums of Quacks and empires have -four
ished for an hour and then disappeared never
again to be revived.
BAKERS BITTERS are now used in hundreds
of families in Virginia as their only medicine,
and that they are appreciated even by medical
men as O tonic of great virtue, is abundantly at
tested by hundreds of certificates in the hands
of the Proprietor.
BAKERS BTrTERS are compounded entirely
of vegetable extracts, which SO harmoni-
ously blended that all ages and sexes may use
them with benefit, and without the fear of
the slightest injury. Try them by all means,
and then speak of them to the afflicted as they
deserve.
Sold by all druggists and country merchants
everywhere. E. BAKER. Proprietor.

County Organization.

The Lynchburg Nirginiaa publishes
letter on the subject of county organiza-
ton and comments as follows:
Much of the unnecessary expense of
administration lies just here; so that the
people who imagine that reputation of
the public debt would relieve them al
most entirely of taxation make a great
mistake. The Conservative people of
Virginia knew when the present Con-
stitution was framed, that the county
organization was not adapted to our con-
dition, and would involve an expense
that we could lily bear. General Grant
saw this, and, as we were informed by
Mr.. Stuart, the Chairman of the Com
mittee of Nine, spoke more freely in
condemnation of the feature of the Con-
stitution, than he did of any other. He
said that it would entail an expense that
would be intolerable, and accordingly,
promised that.we should have the oppor-
tunity to vote upon this provision sepa
rately, as we did upon the DISTINGUISHING
and disability clauses of the Constitu-
ton. For some reason that has never
been explained satisfactorily, General
Grant receded from his promise, and we
had either to reject the whole Constitu-
ton, and permit the State to continue
under military and carpet-bag rule. or
take it with the chance reserved of
amending it in the future. The people
acted wisely, as we think, in accepting
the best terms they could get under the
circumstances, for the purpose of regain
ing control of their own affairs, and
should now proceed to make such
amendments in the organic law as time
and experience, but above all, the neces-
sites of their condition, have proved to
be requisite.
On this subject, our neighbor of the
NeaUs says:
Yesterday we saw sheriff and a
number OF farmers from the country
around our city, and all say that nine
teen-twentieths of the white people will
vote to amend the constitution, and go
back to the old county court SYSTEM
The people are in earnest about extrica-
ting the State from its financial troubles,
and they are in earnest in demanding a
reduction of county and State expenses.
The law abiding, working people are
tired of the cost of crime and the burden
of vagrancy."

clamento nominating several people

pendent ticket, and we expect will be
repudiated by the citizens above named.

GRAND BALL AT THE VIRGINIA HOTEL,
GIVEN BY Mr.. AND Mrs. ]. d. CRowL.-Not
since the grand-mothers of the present genera
ton, wearing their high-heeled shoes and tight
bodies paced through the stately measures of
the minuet has there been gathered together
more fashionable throng Of handsome men and
beautiful women than was assembled at the
Virginia Hotel on last Wednesday evening"
Besides the many beauties, of which our city
can so justly feel proud tn cities of Baltimore,
Washington and New Orleans were represented
in the persons of some of their fairest daugh-
tiers, lending the additional charms of their
loneliness to the festal throng.
From the opening of the Ball with the "Vir-
ginia Hotel' Quadrille, the merry feet ofjoyous
dancers threaded the mazes of the graceful
Lancers, stately Quadrille, or moved with
rhythmic motion to the symphonies of Strauss
latest waltz, until the Fastening hours with
winged feet announced that nights candles
were burnt out and jocu day stood tiptoe on
the misty mountain tops.'
At eleven o'clock the happy throng adjourned
to the supper room. where one of the hand
soonest tables was spread with fruits from every
cline, and arranged with an eye to the beauti-
full that we have never seen surpassed. There
could be seen (and tasted the finest oranges
from the leafy groves of Florida, rosy checked
peaches that rivalled the complexion of the
fairest face of earth's fair daughters, cooling
draughts of lemonade that Gangmede himself
might well have been proud to serve, cakes
showing in every varied form the cunning and
tasteful handiwork of woman, ice-cream as
crisp and cold as though just received from the
snow-king himself and over and above all
