A GROUNDWORK FOR BELrEF.-The
American people fully believe in HostetterIs
Stomach Bitters, and there is a substantial
groundwork for that belief They have
witnessed and experienced its effects for
over twenty-five years, and have found no
reason to distrust one statement made in re-
gard to it, Proofs have been brought
home to their own hearths that it is fam
lily medicine which is Of the utmost value
in cases of malaria, dyspepsia, debility, dis
ordered conditions OF the liver and bowels,
and in variety of other malades. They
have found it competent tonic, a genuine
Alternative, and in contrasting it with the
many preparations Of the same class in the
market, they have willingly accorded it the
palm. The correctness of their belief in
its efficacy has received the strongest con-
tirmation in expressions of opinion by medi.
cal men, and the approval of the press.

SILVER COINS.

WASHINGTON, March 2S.-Mr. Warner OF
Ohio, OF the house coinage committee, has
recently had a conference with the secretary
of the treasury and the postmaster. general
in relation to the question of carrying pack
ages of silver through the mails with a
view to getting it into general circulation.
1t is found III practice that under the law
passed at the extra session fractional silver
coins have tendency to accumulate at the
various money ccnters, and then instead of
going back through the business chan
nels to the people of the country, they
find their way directly into the treasury,
where they are constantly accommodating.
All this time there is a scarcity of these sill
yer coins everywhere else. Mr.. Warner
wants the secretary Of the treasury to have
the authorization Of law to return this frac-
tional silver to the country banks through
the mails in registered envelopes in sums of
ten dollars and upwards, not to exceed four
pounds in weight, as that is the limit under
the postal laws; the applicant for such
coins to pay the registration fee and be at
all risk, the packages to go free Of postage
The secretary of the treasury thinks this
can be done now without any change in the
law and the postmaster general concurs in
that opinion.
The committee on coinage also has under
consideration the question of repeating the
law providing for the redemption of frac.
tional silver in which case it is proposed
to make the half-dollar half the weight OF
the legal tender dollar and then make il
full legal tender.

WHAT CONGRESS WILL PROBABLY DO

WASHINGTON, March 2S.-An attempt
will be made this week in the house tc
take up the interstate commerce bill fol
consideration, but it is altogether probable
that for month or more appropriation
bills will be given undisputed right of way
Debate on the deficiency bill will begin in
the senate on Tuesday Or Wednesday and
continue through the remaining days OF
the week, if not longer. There is no doubt
whatever, that the discussion on the Gar
field amendment to the election law will be
bitter and exciting. 1t will take a wide

Morning journal and courier., 1880-05-21
RECENT PUBLICATIONS.

Scribners for June is an excellent number. For light reading there are papers on Rocky Mountain Nights, Spring Hereabouts, that is in New York and it's suburbs, with illustra- tions; Thackeray as 8 Draughtsman, with over thirty reproductions of the novelist's sketches; Life in Florence, a sprightly paper from an American point of view; My Friend, Mrs. Angel, humorous story of Washington life. The current political interest is appealed to by H. J. Raymond's journal of The Phila- de1phia Convention of 1866, and Henry Kings picturesque sketch of Year of the Exodus in Kansas, and indirectly by Principal Grants third paper on The Dominion of Canada, dealing with it's political and social history in an interesting and able manner. Other papers, more solid and of curious interest are Mir. Scudder's paper on William Blake, Poet and Painter, with portrait illus trations, including The Chariot of Fire, and others never before engraved; Rev. Isaac H. Halls account of The Cypriote Inscriptions, the specimens of which in the Metropolitan Museum were deciphered by him. and Richard A. Proctor's Sunspots and Financial Panics, an intended refutation of Professor Stanley Jevons' elaborate theories, based on a former playful suggestion by Professor Proctor that these two phenomena are intimately connected. The reappearance of the sun-spots, and the recent rumors of 8 financial panic, give interest to this paper. Schuyler's Peter the Great is Interestingly il- lustrated, and deals with Peters first marriage, the administration of Sophia, the eternal peace o11 afo ofo MT. Cables Grandissimes is rapidly justifying the high claims made for it byt the publishers This installment is said to be the most dra- matic in the story, possibly excepting the episode of Bras-Coupe and the closing part. The departments contain many articles of special or timely interest.

For the past twenty years I was afflicted with Catarrh, which affected my throat to such an extent as to make my life . misery. I would wake up at night with sense of suf location, as though some one was strangling me, expecting every moment to be my last. My suffering was so severe that I was afraid to go to bed, and often did not dare to. Ten years ago my hearing became also impaired from the effects of catarrh and gradually grew so bad that of late it was quite difficult for me to hear Two months ago I placed myself under Dr. LighthiIIs care and the re- suit of his treatment has been truly wonder full The trouble in my throat is completely removed, sleep and breathe as comfortably as 8 baby, my hearing is restored, and my health has 50 much i'm proved that I feel like new man. In fact such change for the better has been wrought in my case that I thank God daily from the bottom of my heart for bringing Dr. Lighthin to Hartford and for directing me to him. I am 64 years of age and have lived in Hartford county nearly all my life, and if the blessings and prayers of an old man are of any avail, the happiness and pros perity of Dr. Lighthill is assured

 It affords me great pleasure to add my tes- timony to that of others in favor of Dr. LighthilPs success in the cure of catarrh. His treatment of my wife has proved so ben eficial that eheerfully recommend him to the confidence of the afflicted. The catarrh in the case of my wife was of long standing and in it's worst form, against which many remedies had been tried in vain The very first treatment applied by Dr. Lighthin per manently removed some of the most trouble some features and the results ever since have been of the most gratifying character. Our people may congratulate themselves on hay ing at their command the services of 6 physi- elan so skillful as Dr. Lighthill in the treat ment Of that troublesome disease, catarrh.

THE VICTORY IN ILLINOIS.

THE VICTORY IN ILLINOIS.
 The first test vote in the Illinois conven- tion showed that the supporters of General Grant had not misrepresented their strength in the convention They could get along without the Cook county delegates, having a majority of 100, and the contest in that county therefore lost the importance which some had attached to it. Though at this writing the convention has not finished it's work, the Grant men seem to have used their power as wisely and moderately as could have been expected, considering the bitter nature of the struggle for the control of the convention.
 The success of the Grant movement in Illinois is most important. Defeat there would have been fatal, but this victory adds forty-two votes to the Grant column. It also adds great force to Don Camerons prediction that Grant will be nominated at Chicago as sure as his (Cameron's) hair is red. The prospect for the fulfllment of this prophecy was never better than it is to-day, though it is still possible to doubt, if the most impartial counts that have been made are at all trust worthy
