We received on Wednesday of

Adam SIiger, few miles west of
Fayetteville, two sweet potatoes,
one weighing q and the other
q pounds. We doubt whether
larger ones can be produced SO
early in the season.
From the garden Of Mr.. A. J.
Bfazclton, in this place, We have
a cluster CT thirteen tomatoes, the
the smallest Of which is nine inch
es in circumference. The color
was beautiful red and the flavor
delicious.
And to our thoughtful young
friend Charlie Mckinney, son
of c.. C. Mckinney, Esq, we
are indebted for a supply of
large, fine tomatoes. They were
equal to the best, and we are
pleased to think that Charlie
has a kind remembrance for us.
We have samples of the peach
es grown by Prof. George w.

coin. They are exceptionally
fine, the color, size and flavor
being superior.

orertasking the Energies

1t is not advisable for any of us to over
task our energies, corporal or mental, but
in the eager pursuit Of wealth or f,me or
knowledge. how many transgress this saIu-
tary rule. 1t must be a matter Of great i'm
portance to all who do so to know how they
can regain the vigor so recklessly expended.
The remedy is neither costly or difficult to
obtain. Hostetter's Stomach Bitters is pro-
durable in every city, town and settlement
in America, and it compensates for drain
of bodily or mental energy more efectually
than any invigoraut ever prescribed or adj
vertised. Laboring men, athletes, students,
journalists, lawyers, clergymen, physi-
clans, all bear testimony to its wondrously
renoyating powers. 1t increases the capa-
bilities for undergoing fatigue. and counter
acts the injurious effects upon the system
of exposure, sedentary habits, unhealthy
or wearying avocations, or an insalubrious
climate, and is prime Alternative, diuretic
