The Season OF EntermItten

All miasmatic complaints, in other
words, all disorders generated by un-
wholesome exhalations, from the earth
or water, are prevalent at this season. In
every section subject to The visitation of
fever and ague, or other forms Of inter-
mittent disease, the causes which pro-
duce these ma!adies are now actively at
work. This, therefore, is a period of the
year when the inhabitants OF such dis
tricts should prepare their systems to
meet the unwholesome condition of the
atmosphere by course of tonic and al
terative treatment. Foremost among the
invigoants, recommended by time and
experience as means of fortiiying the
system against all endemic and epidemic
maludies, stands Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters. By timely use OF the Bitters,
the tceblest resident Of an unhealthy soil
may escape the sickness which, without
the aid Of this potent ally of nature, will
be apt TO oyertake the strongest.

WHY'S AND WHEREFoREs.-Ther are
said to be two sides to almost every ques-
tion-even to tina: of the employment of
Chinese labor. An old Democratic friend
of ours has a number of Cinnamon en-
ployed, and when gently reminded of the
inconsistency of such conduct as those"
while the" time honored party" were
resolving so furiously against everything
Celestial, responded by saying that 1t was
the only labor he could get that was re-
liable. He employed white men at first,
but they got drunk at every opportunity,
and that was n thing his business could
not stand. We see the same complaints
on the labor question are common among
the farmers of the valley, who said they
would prefer white labor if it could be
got, that was to be depended upon.
