AMERICA AHEAD.
Pee Iliar Char aracseristicS of Amer
icans-The Evils and How Re-
stored

In this age of hustle and hurry, an
age devoted to great projects and en-
lerprlSeS, the Amer lean people are tax
ing the lead in the furtherance of no.
ble works, and in the advauc mrnt of
the sciences AID arts. In these they
deserve 10 take high rank, and
through the united works of millions,
the American continent is fast being
transformed from its untamtd state
and being placed on an equality with
the older continents beyond the ocean.
The American people fast under these
influences, developing into n nervous,
energetic race, reInm kable for its vim
ana business quail tiCatioms yet there
is danger that IN the course Of years
these very elements may combine To
the ruinatinn Of the physical character
of the people, aud leave them feeble
and altogether different from their
fo!efaLhers. General debility is now
much more common than formerly,
and seems To be on the increase among
the masses. Many remedies have heen
extensively advertised for this wide
spread complaint, but none of these
have been so successful or met With
snch general favor as this remedy. Mr..
). 5. Goudy, of Massillon, Stark coun-
y.Ohio, writes that ne had been troub-
led with general debility and dyspepsia
for several wears that he was induced
to try PERUNA for his complaints, aid
that after using three bottles Of the
medicine he was greatly relieved. 1t
hraced him right up and gave him Ell
ergy, and restored him To his youthful
Vig0r, he ascribes his cure to PERUNA,
and stys tits wonderful remedy.

and prayer:
In the name and by the authority of
the wealth Of Pennsylvania,
Robert E. Pattison, governor of the

During the past year our state and

cord with all communities of men. No
part of our people has been seriously
afflicted with disaster. Our indus rieS
have thriven and our harvest been
bOuntiful. The Toll Of the labnrer has
not been IN vain and the rewards of
thrift are everywhere manifest. Tu-
mutt and dissensiOns have cen avert
ed quiet has dWelt with plenty and
our republic Of states has continued TO
live in the undimnished affections Of
the people. Conscience and reason a
like teach that these blessings have not
resulted from chance, but are due to
the merciful goodness Of the supreme
God of the universe. That they may
be our continuing heritage we should
manifest grateful spirit of thanksgiv.
iug to their gracious Giver. To praise
for past blessings we should, also, add
devout entreaty for their continuance,
and the anticipation Of the lot of those
whom misfortune and poverty Cypress.
The destitute, the unemployed and tie
stricken should have remembrance in
oEI prayers.
In conformity, Therefore, with the u
inform custom sanctioned by the relg-
iOus sense Of our statt S TO appoint gen
eral days of thanksgiving and prayer |

BEN BUTLER has about run his course
with the democrats Of Massachusetts,.
The better element Of the party have al
ready taken steps to have him sat down
on as hard as possible, as will be seen by
the following from the Boston Herald ::
"It is announced that the Independents
will hold theirow state convention and
nominate a candidate for governor, the
object being to defeat Butler, should he
again be o candidate. The movement
first came to notice at a meeting of the
Massachusetts Reform Club this after
noon, when the club voted unanimously
to hold a convention of Massachusetts
independents opposed to Butler. The
convention will be called early to antic-
ipate the actions of other state onven
lions. Among the prominent gentle
men present were Col. Theodore Lyman,
Gen. Francis A. Walker, Charles Fran
els FAdams, jr. and John S. Harlow,
president of the club"

BIsMARcK's triumph in capturing the
Dakota capital location is of course the
theme of many selfgfatulation on the
part Of the newspapers of that fortunate
city. The Tribune of June 8 says on
the subject: Bismarck is now the cap
ital of Dakota. It has been SO declared
by the commission appointed by act of
the legislature to examine and deter
mine as to what point the capital should
be removed from Yankton. An attempt
may be made to force legal complica-
tons, but no danger need be apprehend-
ed. The decision Of the commission
will not be reversed or set aside. Bis
marck rejoices, but shows no disposition
to crow. And if she does not prove her
self worthy of the honor that has been
conferred upon her, then we mistake
the character of her people. We trusted
in u magnificent country the excel
lence Of our location the size of our
bid; the integrity of the commission,
and in God; and last, but by no means
least, in the pluck and discretion of
Alex. Mckenzie.

Our citizens in consequence must realize
that the old order Of things has passed
away and act accordingly. They must
be more guarded in their dealings with
strangers, and in general exercise a
great deal more caution. This is n of
the lessons Of the day that Montanians
must learn, much as they dislike to.
