Some people have fashion of confusing ex-
cellent remedies with the large mass of
''patent TT medies," and in this they are guilty
of wrong. There are some advertised
remedies fully worth all that is asked for
them, and one at least we know of-Hop
Bitters. The writer has had occasion to use
the Buffers in just such climate as we have
most of the year in Bay City, and has always
found them to be first class and reliable, do

when the friends of Mr.. Tilden present

New York Sun On Friday last, at
Block Island, in speaking Of Mr.. Til

Hayes has no right to be in the White

commission was fraudulent and false,
and in the face of tho tacts--all this is
truth that has already passed into histo-
ry. But, rs far as we know, no one OF
the Eight who consummated the Fraud
had ever confessed this truth until Jus,
tice Miller confessed it at Block Island.
1t is n most extraordinary and most
humiliating confession to come from the
lips of man who has been honored and
trusted by the people OF the United
States, as Mr.. Justice Miller has been
honored and trusted
