To Check Diarrhea.

Diarrhea is 4 complaint that the human
family suffer more from AT this time OF
the year than from any other, and should
be treated very carefully in order 10 re-
store the bowels to their proper strength.
There is wine in New Jersey and sold
by our druggists, called Speers's Port
Grape Wine, which is being used very
successfully in Diarrhea cases; in fact 1t
is conceded by chemists to contain just
such properties as to gradually check the
fermenting of the bowls and add tone aud
vigor to the system so as to withstand the
miasmatic climate against these prevailing
complaints. The wine is rich in body and
is an excellent tonic, keeping the func-
tons of the bowels in their proper condi-
tion.-EvENNG PosT.

we are not only fighting for liberty and
independence, but also for the abolition of
slavery. We need arms and ammunition,
we do not ask for fllibrsters; we have
enough Cubans on the island and in exile;
more indeed than we need to plant Cuban
flags even in Havana, itself, if we only
had arms and ammunition. For the
last three long years we have not

those of my two colleagues, now in this

their doors in one of the finest islands of
the world and to enlist not only their
sympathy but the active support of their
