The surest tranquilizer of the nerves is med
cine which remedies their supersensitiveness by
invigorating them. Over-tension of the nerves
always weakens them. What they need, then
is a tonic, not sedative The latter is only use
full when there is intense medical excitement
and an immediate necessity exists for producing
quietude Of the brain. Hostctter's Stomach
Bitters restores tranquility of the nerves by en-
dowing them with the vigor requisite to bear,
without being Jared or disturbed unhealthfully,
the ordinary impressions produced through the
media of sight, hearing and reflection. Nay, it
does more than this.-it enables them to sustain
degree of tension from mental application,
which they would be totally unable to endure
without its assistance. Such at least Is the ire
sistible conclusion to be drawn from the testimo-
ny of business and professional men, littelateurs
clergymen, and others who have tested the for.
tifying and reparative influence of this celcbra-.
ted tonic and ncrvine.

TEMPERANCE.

The Meeting at the Pavallfon Last Night.
AT the meeting in the tabernacle last
evening, under the auspices of the reform
club, the Rev. Joseph Ward made the ope-
ming address. His remarks were earnest
and we'll received, having reference, chiefly,
to religion and temperance, as being insep-
arabic. His position in regard to the expul-
sion of the bible and prayer by the reform
club is not well taken, and he was correct,
in supposing he may have been mistaken,
for though the constitution does not provide
for a chaplain, and the order of business
does not especially state that meetings shall
be opened by prayer, there is no clause any
where that prohibits praying or the reading
of the bible. Under the new constitution
every member is accorded the freedom of
reading his own bible and praying for him
self or hearing prayers from any denomina-
tion he may prefer. and there can be no
doubt that the club, as an organization firm
ly believe in an allwise overruling Provi-
dence.
In speaking of the unfortunate and la
mented Wollens he paid feeling tribute
to his christian life, and administered con.
ISOLATION in the thought, that the truly good
are ever ready to meet death.
Major Harry MacNamara next proceeded
to deal with the practical results of intem-
perance. His remarks were timely and to
the point, presenting the moderate drinker
in his true light, and illustrating the danger
Of procrastination by reading beautiful
poem entitled II Will Weave my Web"
After expressing desire on behalf of the
club to work hand in hand with all denom-
nations in the cause of temperance and re-
form, the Rev. Mr.. Richardson was intro
duced and gave brief address. He spoke
Of the short life of the Washingtonian
movement, also of the good templars, and
concluded by urging upon all classes the i'm
portance Of moral suasion, and the necessi-
ty Of proper education of children. The
meeting was interesting throughout. Though

Band oi Spotted Tall Indian, Make Raid Into
Nebraska, and Create 4 Panic Among
tho Settlers
They Defy the Military, and a Govern.
ncnt Scout Draws a Revolver
Upon an OMcer.

A gentleman who came down from Spot
ted Tail agency yesterday informs us Of ar
incipient insurrection which occurred among
some of the Indians of that agency on las
Friday. ,4-t.;S' sf
A number of Indians belonging to Black
Coles band, crossed the Niobrara river Al
Paddock, and conducted themselves in such
a manner as to frighten the settlers. TIL,
Indians were bold and insolent, and mad,
demonstrations which showed that they wer,
not there for any peaceful purpose. They
insulted the women, and it was reported
that one one woman was outraged by the
red rascals.
The settlers sent messenger to the agen.
cy, and Lieut.. Baxter, with fifteen men
was sent to Paddock to relieve the citizen,
and compel the Indians to return to the res.
ervation. Upon arriving at Paddock Lieut.
Baxter found the Indians there as had been
reported, and ordered them to return to the
agency. Black Cole, who, by the way, is
one of the government scouts and receives
pay as such from the public treasury,
refused to obey the order, and drew his
revolver and presented it at the lieutenant's
breast, and dared him to undertake to en-
force his order. The Indians largely out
numbered the soldiers, were all we'll armed,
and seemed anxious for fight. Under
these circumstances Lieut.. Baxter wisely re-
Trained from undeavoring by force to COM
pei the Indians to obey his order, as con.
flict would certainly have resulted in the
total humiliation of his little band, and
would doubtless have been followed by an
indiscriminate massacre of the defenseless
settlers. He therefore made no demonstra-
tion, but dispatched one of his men to the
agency, who conveyed to Maj. Vessels, com.
manding the troops at the post, information
in regard to the state of affairs at Paddock.
Major Vessels Immediately placed himself
at the head Of a sufficient number of men
to deal with the insurrectionary Indians and
rode with all haste to Paddock. Arriving
there, the superior force intimidated the In
dians, and they returned to the reservation
without offering any resistance.
Thus this lawless demonstration by these
Indians was quelled without bloodshed, but
it may not always be so. The Indians are
extremely Independent and insolent They
carried their point in regard to removal in a
bold and defiant manner, and they manifest
no regard or respect for the authority of the
government. They are plentifully supplied
with horses and the best Of arms and an
outbreak and massacre would not be unex.
pected news from that agency.

Another Large Failure.

The public have been surprised by
the failure this week, of Hiram Weeks,
a merchant of this place. Mr.. Weeks
has been, until last January, a director
and one of the largest stock holders in
the Merchants National Bank, from its
organization, and was generally consid-
cred a wealthy man. He had between
$4,000 and $4,000 invested in bank
stocks, largely upon borrowed capital.
Within the last year, the market value
of the stock has very largely depreciat-
ed, so that it became difficult to raise
money upon it. Added to this is the
depreciation in real estate, and espe-
cially in an expensive set of new build
ings on his farm at the Centre. The
immediate cause of the failure was the
attachment of all his bank stock by
Col. F. Fletcher on note for $4,000.
The secured debts are stated to amount
to about $4,000 and the unsecured
debts to about $22, 1000, making $4,000
in all. The largest unsecured debt is
one of about $4,000, to John Hancock
of this place. 1t is estimated that the
assets are sufficient to pay forty per
cent. of the unsecured Indebtedness.
