When a board Of eminent ply
sicians and chemists announce the
discovery that by combining some
well known vegetable remedies
the most wonderful medicine was
produced, which would cure such
a wide range of diseases that most
all other remedies could be dis
pensed with, many were skepiieal

trial has dispelled all doubt, ant
to-day the discoveries Of that great
medicine, Hop Bitters, are honor.

SIN Another Comet.

Prof. Swift, Director of the
Warner Observatory, Rochester,
N. Y, has just verified the dis
covery Of another comet, in the
Constellation Of Auriga, made
July I4th, by Prof. J. NJ. Schae.
berle, Of Ann Arbor, Mich. This
new comet is apparently coming
directly toward the earth, and, for
a telescope comet, is very bright
indeed, il can readily be seen with
a good opera glass. 1t is quite
remarkable that it should be II
just the spot where the present
large come, was first seen By The
naked eye il this Latitude, and II
shows that the two bodies mus.
have crossed each others paths.
This makes the fourth comet dis.
covered within ten weeks, a cir.
cumstance heretofore unknown il
history. Prof. Schaeberle ha.
duly fled his application for tho
Warner prize Of $500, and as ye.
he is the only claimant,
