force the amendments essential TO the peace the
country and 70 the perpetuity OF republican inst-

HEAT AND Sickness. During the hot and
sultry weather all nusual amount of sickness pre-
walls in every community especially among tt-
males and children, caused by tho fermenting
miasma gas or heterogeneous matter floating in the
air, arising from decaying vegetation. This bad
air t,cts every thing we Cat, and engcndcrs III
it semi fermentation which when taken in the
system is like lesven, and operates on tbs whole;
starting the bowels and soon producing a violent
fermentation, causing diarrhea and dissentery.
I! has been found that the use OF Speer S old
Port Grape Wine Of New Jorsoy has an extra
ordinary eff set in checking this fermentation and
restoring the system to its original strength and
vigor, and when used in time it prevents these
complaints altogether. Invalids and debllitsted
persons have found it the most nutritious and
strengthen:n tonic in the market, and the g.est.
est help in resisting the poisnOus effects of tho
vilisted atmosphere. THIS wine so long estab-
lished has become the standard wine upon which
physicians rely as the most rich in body and gen.
uine in character containing the greatest amount
Of medicinal properties with the least intoxica
ting qualities speer's vineyards promise larger
yield this year than usual, and no has reduced

chase it Of druggists for 81 per bottle. None OF
this wine is bottled until it is four years old
