When the tones Of a musical instrument
becomes harsh and discordant, we say It Is
"out Of tune" The same may be said OF
that far more wonderful and complicated
piece Of mechanism, the human structure,
when II becomes disordered. Not only
actual disease, but those far more common
causes, overwork, mental anxiety and fast
living, may impair It's yigor and activity.
The best remedy for q partial collapse Of
the vital energies, from those as well as
from other causes, is Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters, which Is at the same time an
agreeable and mind cheering cordial, and
the best possible invigorant in all cases Of
debility. Il is an Incompatible stomachic
and anti.bilious medicine, eradicates fever
and ague, and prevents subsequent attacks.
It remedies with certainty and thorough.
ness bowel and kidney complaints, dyspep.
sia, nervousness, rheumatic troubles, and
many other bodily ailments. Italso coun-
teracts influences which predispose to
disease. eod&w

Is1s69 careful estimates made the sum
ofUnited States bonds held abroad 5000.
100000, and the annual interest was s54,.
100000. This aum has been steadily
decreasing in the mean time. l! was re-
duced to less than s5OooOo,Ooo 3 year
ago. The general balance Of trade in our
favor during the past twelve months has
been over s2s5,0OoOoo, and more than
one.hslf Of this balance has been brought
home in United ststes bonds. Il may be
safely estimated that not more than $780,.
100000 Of United States bonds are now
held abroad, and the annual interest can
not be as much as s2o,ooOo00. This
great change in the amount of foreign
debt has permanent bearing upon the
demand for coin for shipment. OF the
railroad bonds which were sold abroad q
large share is in default and will long re.
main so. With so ANAL a foreign debt
represented by government securities and
such aheayy balance oftrads in our favor
it is impossible for any serious pressure
to come from abroad upon our money
markets. And since We owe,o little and
are selling SO much, the growth OF our
national wealth can not be denied and il
cannot forever fail to show itself in
movements toward general prosperity.

Fine Sale Of stock.

Correspondence OF the Richmond DispatcD.J
Mount jackson, VA. August %, 1878.
To-day General G. S. Meem, the owner
OF Stratbmoor, probably the finest estate
in the Valley OF Virginia, sold at public
auction 200 head OF thoroughbred Cotswold
sheep, at prices ranging from Sl5 to 800 q
head, and aggrs@atlng to the amount OF
about $4,000 Tue crowd numbered at
Ieast 600 persons, mostly farmers and stock
raisers-a number Of them from other
States than Virginia. We were pleased to
notice that most OF the Sales were made to
farmers who intended 10 use these valuable
animals in crossing on their common stock.
Such general distribution and use OF yalua-
bic stock will add thousands OF dollars TO
the neighborhocds OF the purchasers. This
is the first large stock auction we have had
in Virginia since the close OF the war, and
its success will likely induce others to fol-
low General Meem's example. Such sales
are common in rle western States.
Among the visitors from your city we
noticed Governor Holiday, DR.. Pollard,
Colonel French, and DR.. Dickinson, Of the
Planter and Farmer. Judge Harris and
Rev. Mr. Massey, candidates for Congress
for this district. were present, and seemed
interested In the stock and farming interest
OF their district, as welt as its political In
