A southern Mother.

Pittsburg Dispateh.l
The Roman matron is equaled by
the following sentiments contained IN
a letter received by a gentleman Of this
city. The writer is the wife of an en-
'inent lawyer Of Tennessee:
And now | shall ask you and your
good wife to rejoice with me that my
only boy, just man, is safe-sate
through all the dreadful pestilcnce in
the deadly air of Memphis, although
he stood bravely at his post, just as a
son of mine should.
That mother lived beyond the line
of danger, but yet she would not urge
her son to leave his neighbors in the
hour of trial, distress and suffering.
Her charity! Listen to it:
II believe this plague has made a
Universalist of me. l have seen men
in moment rise from the depths of
degradation and wickedness to Christ
like sublimity in devotion and sacri-
fee, and the most polluted of my own
sex suddenly changed into angels Of
love and mercy. Thus God teaches
us to scorn none of His creatures.

FROM CHICAGO.

Correspondence Of the Ledger.
CHICAGO, November 6,-Well, the
agony is over. | am sorry to have to
acknowledge that yesterdays political
contest in this city and State proved |
disastrous to Democracy. The Repub- |
licans gained a sweeping victory, elect
ing nearly their whole ticket. The
result is sad commentary on the
morals of so-called Democrats. The
Republican majority was, | have no
hesitancy in saying, bought for filthy
lucre. At least, such was the case in
Chicago and Cook county. The ter
ribly hard times may be pleaded as ex-
tenuating circumstances for the acts
Of those who bartered principle for
gold. But it scarcely seems possible
that men who have boldly stood in the
ranks, and fought calamity under the
Democratic banner, should at the vital
moment desert to the enemy. Aside
from excuses for wrong-doing, it is a
patent fact that Republicanism in Hi
nois has gained a new lease Of life /;
and it is only justice to say that they
fought hard for victory. | blush for
the recreancy Of those formerly ranked
as Democrats in this city and State
and am really sorry to have to chron-
icle this Waterloo defeat of the party
in this State, and especially in Cook
county, that has generally given a
rousing Democratic majority. go

Alternative, H0stettor's Stomach Btters. The
liquors of commerce, even when they are not
adulterated, fail to produce more than a tenn
porary eHhilaration, usually followed by q
depressing reaction, anything but beneficial
to weekly constitution. Not only do the
potent botanic ingredients combined with
the alcoholic of Hostetter's Stomach Bittors
minister to the health and vigor Of those who
use it, but the bssis-pure old rye, the finest
and most salubrious liquor distilled, is no
mean promoter Of healthful condition Of

Bittors is essential to preserve thoir vegetable
constituents from fermentation, and it uu-
questionably augments their remedial value.
