Half the diseases Of the human family spring
from disorderod stomach, and may be pre-
vented by invigorating and toning that abused
and neglected organ with Hostettef's Stomach
Bitters. Let IL be borne in mind that the liver,
the kidneys, the intestino', the muscles, the
lgamefits, the bones, the nerves, the integu-
ments, are all renewed and nourisbed by the
blood, and that the digestive organs are the
grand alembic in which the materials Of the
vital fluid are prepared. When the stomach
fails to provide healthful noutishment for its
dependencies they necessarily suffer, and the
ultimate result, il the evil is not arrested, will
be chronic and probably fatal disease some-
where. II may be developed in the kidneys in
the form Of diabetis, In the liver rs congestion,
para ysis, in the intcgnments as scrotula. lie.
member however, that each and all of these
consequences Of indigestion may be prevented
by tho timely and regular use OF that sovereign
antidote to dyspepsia, Hos.ottor's BitIers.

O'ConnOr on the Irish Question.


 NEW YORK, April 19.-T. P. O'Connor, M. P. for Galway, delivered a farewell address on the Irish question before large audience in Cooper Institute this evening. Charles A. Dana presided and introduced O'Connor, who in the course of his address said the Gladstone land act was not a law that could settle the difficulties in Ireland. It would take four teen years, said he, to dispose of the cases now before the courts and tenants would have to pay back rent until the courts found time to dispose of their cases. The Land League, he said, intended that there should be no more famines in Ireland and the tenants should live on the ground that they cultivate without being robbed by cruel landlords. Re- cent statistics showed, O'Connor said, that in six months after the land act had passed forty-five thousand tenants had been evicted, four times as many as at any similar time. The Irish race was at present united all over the world, and that gave more hope to tpoor tenants than the alleged generosity of Glad stone. To his mind the hopes of Ireland never looked brighter than at present and the Irish people would not be satisfied until they have government in Ireland of the Irish people, and he felt confident they would yet live to see Ireland free.
