Regular Secretion Essential to Health.
The regular secretion and flow of the gas
trio juices, and of the bile which the use of
HOstetter's Stomach Bitters promotes are
effects which condncs materially to tho re-
storati,n of health. when the system is disor-
dered. Food is not digested in the dyspeptic
stomach because the gastric fnid is deficient,
superbundcnt or vitated the liver becomes
| cOpgested and the bowels con stipated because
| the supply of bile Ia inadequate or misdrec-
ted. The Bitters rectifes all this, and reno
YES every i'll consequence of non assimilation
and billions irregulariCy. Furthermore, it
stim ulates the action of the kidneys. by
which impurities are. SO to speak, strained
from the blood, and any tendency in the uri-
nary organs to grow sluggish and disordered
counte racted. Whether it be used az a
means of regulating gastric or bilious secre-
tion and relieving the overloaded bowels, or
to promote complete, and therefore lealthful
urination. iOstetter's Bitters may be relied
upon with confidence to accomplish the end
in view.

were arrested by officer Cobb and

when they were arraigned before
Justice j. b. Pickett, and on dis
closing from whom they obtained

discharged. Some of our best citi-
zens doubt the policy of letting
such disturbers of the peace go at
large simply on their making known
where they obtained pint of cider.
The expense to the town of the le-
gal farce must have been something
like $40, and certainly no good
could result from the arrest. Our
officers dare not prosecute man
for selling cider, law or no law, as
public opinion will not sustain
them in so doing. 1t seems to us
that SO slight penalty as was in
tlicted in the above case will tend
to encourage drunkenness and en-
holden peace breakers. They will
think that no matter how desperate
all assault they may make, or how
dire the results of such assault short
of death, they have only to say
that they were drunk, and say they
got their liquor at such a place.

The exigencies Of the Ohio campaign
have proven too much for that modicum
OF civil service reform intrusted to Nc
Crary, the War Office, and he has au-
thorized the formal announcement of a
new Interpretation Of the Presidents
order with reference to contributions to
political funds, 80 far as it relates to his
department. He says in an official, and
therefore ominous, way that voluntary
subscriptions on the part of clerks will
not be regarded as In violation Of the
order. We have no hesitation in prophe-
sying that this delicate intimation will
be productive of an exuberant and en-
thusiastic disposition to subscribe to
campaign funds on the part Of cautious
and far-seeing clerks that was never
witnessed before.

THE NEW ORLEANS PACIFIC RAIL-
WAY COMPANY

Have removed their office to the commodious
ground floor Of the building No. 15s Common
street, formerly occupied by the New Orleans
Gaslight Company.
In making this announcement they desire to
express their thanks to those of their fellow
citizens who have thus far extended their aid
to this great enterprise. while again appealing
to the entire community to promptly come for
ward and subscribe in accordance with their
means, in order to enable the directory to push
with renewed vigor the work already so far ac-
compiished to completion,
Every facility will be given. on application at
the office to impart the information reauired to
convince every one that the success of the road
is assured as soon as the sum of ss75 600 is
reached, either In subscriptions to the first
mortgage bonds or to the stock of the company.
In order to place their securities within reach
of all classes Of our people, the company have
issued scrip limited In amount to $4,000, and
made receivable either for stock when presented
in sums of 500. or for freight or passage on
completion Of the road. This scrip is divided
into notes of $50. 800 SO and IS, transferable by
bearer thus enabling all to aid this immeasur-
ably important work. the success of which will
largely rebound to the interests OF every man,
woman and child In this city.
With regard to the first mortgage bonds, no
one can doubt their being first class invest
ment, apart from the collateral advantages
which will be derived by the residents of this
city !: and that they will be so regarded by our
moneyed institutions the company refer to q
recommendation made a short time since by
the presidents of nearly all our banks and in
suranee companies of the second mortgage 7
per cent bonds of the company, when such an
issue was contem plated.
To show the confidence felt by these institu-
tions in the proposed road, their officers recon-
mend the second mortgage bonds of the New
Orleans Pacific Railway Company as o FIRST
class per cent per annum interest paying
investment" and say they will be received by
their several institutions as security for loans
with as much readiness as any other per
cent security of the State of Louisiana they I'M
hestatingly commend these bonds for invest
ment."
With this inducement supplemented by the
assurances that the company can obtain all else
necessary to place the entire road in working
order when this seemingly small sum shall
have been provided for. and further, that in
stead of second mortgage. first mortgage 6 per
cent bonds are substituted, can any citizen who
really desires the prosperity OF this city. which
has been SO long retarded by the simple want of
proper communication with the almost mex
haust1ble resources of Texas, Arkansas and
Northern Louisiana fail to respond promptly to
this appeal
