GRANT A MILITARY DICrAToR.-Tht

GRANT A MILITARY DlCTAToR.-The
announcement made in our extra OF Sun
day, 10Th Instant, that General Grant
had been sent for by cable dispatch to
return Immediately to this country is
true. The capitalist and accursed mon
ey power generally, smell birthstone in
the air, and thirk that Grant can help
them out. A bill was introduced into
Congress lately to give Hayes the pow
er to call out $4,000 volunteers in case
of an immergency, and the programme
is to put Grant in command OF these
volunteers should the bill pass. The
next step in the programme OF the mon
ey power conspirators will be for this
military butcher-dubbed "the greatest
living American" by the greatest living
scoundrel and tnief-Boss Shepherd, to
declare himself military dictator, and
plunge our fair country into an abyss
of slavery and despair. Are the Amer
can people prepared to allow such
yoke to be placed upon their necks! we
trust not.-Washington Telegram.

language of his colleague, Mr. Blaine.
"the most peculiar old 'cuss that ever

two things. One is that be never wears

The Laboratory Of the SYSTEM.


The stomach is the labratory of the sys-
TEN, in which certain mysterious process
ses are constantly going on. These result
In the production of that wonderful viyi-
flying agent the blood, which in a state of
health rushes laden with the elements of
vitality to the remotest parts of the syS-
TEN. But when the blood is semi-para-
lyZed by dyspepsia, blood manufacture is
carried OH imperfectly, the circulation
grows thin and sluggish, and the system
suffers in consequence. Moreover, indi-
gestion reacts upon the liver and bowels,
rendering the first sluggish, and the lat
ter consolidated. The brain also suffers
by sympathy, and sick headaches, sleep
lessness and nervous symptoms are en-
gendered, Hostetter's Stomach Btters
reforms this state of things, gives perma-
nent tone and regularity TO the stomach
and its associate organs, the bowels and
liver, and ensures complete pourishmeut
and increased vigor of the system. 1T is
the most popular as well as the most efii-
cient anti-dyspeptican and tonic in America.

Difficulty Of Obtaining Pure
Wine.

The difficulty of obtaining pure wine
for sickness is one great cause why physi-
clans refuse to prescribe it where they
know it would be benefit or even cure
their patient, because they fear that some
poisonous mixture will be given them in
stead of Port Wine. and Tie injury be ir-
reparablc. Some California wines are be-
Ing terribly mixed and adulterated with
alcohol and water and other ingredients
to make it cheap, so as to bring greater
profit from the sales. There is an excel
lent Port, said to be the finest wine i'll the
market. made in New Jersey, from the
Oporto Grape, by Alfred Spcer, that has
become the most reliable wine for llospi-
tai and Communion purposes. This wine
has been thoroughly analysed and is
pronounced by chemists t" be the
pure juice of the grape, and to contain the
most valuable medicinal properties. 1t Is

A late author very truthfully says:
"Gold cannot buy happiness, and the
parents who compel their daughters to
marry for station or money commit a
grevious sin against humanity and God.
And woman who marries churl for
his wealth will find that she has made
a terrible bargain shat all the glitter
ings of heartless grandeur are phos-
phorescent gatherings of heart-wretch-
edness; that her life will be one of gid
ed misery, and her old age will be
like crag on the black side of a desert
mountain, where cold moonbeams
sometime glitter, but no birds sing, but
wild storms howl and hoarse thundcrs
roar, and through the sweeping storms
shall be heard the stern voice Of the
great God, saying, Your riches are cor
rupted, your garments are moth-eaten,
your gold and silver are cankered, and
the rust Of them shall be witness
against you, and eat your flesh as if it
were fire."
