The want Of a rClia-
bic diuretic that will
act as a stimulRut to
the kidneys, and yet
not excite or irritate
them, was long since
suppliedin Hostetter's
stomach Bitters. This
hne medicine exerts
the requisite degree OF
stimulus without pro-
ducing irritation, and
is far better adapted
to the purpose than
the unmedicated ezcit-
ants so often resorted
to. Dyspepsia, fever
andague and kindred
diseases are all cured
by it. For sale by all
druggists and dealers
generally.

The Duff1ns Car Uncoupler and
Automatic Brake Company.

At a meeting of the above named
company, Wednesday night, large
number of shares was disposed Of
Letters were received from all parts
of the country for information. The
company has been duly organized
and every promise Of success attends
it. The invention is that of colored
man and its utility is beyond ques
ton. The object in forming the
company is to get out of the inven-
ton all it is worth without sacrificing
it, and others than the inventor make
the money out of it, as is generally
the case. The men connected with
control of the company are promi-
nently known for their honesty and
integrity and the people show their
confidence in them by the rapid man
ner which they are purchasing shares.
Quite a sum has already been offered
tor the right to manufacture the un-
coupler and brake, but no disposition
will be made of the patent until the
share holders are satisfied that the
value of this important invention has
been offered. A full description Of
this uncoupler and automatic car
brake will be published in the near
future in the JOURNAL.

My DEAR SIR AND CoMRADE =
Permit me to thank you most cor
daily for your kind words in my be-
half in reply to the foul aspersiOns OF
a white penny-a-liner in the Phila-
delphio Record. l have not seen
the article which you have dissected
so admirably, but am satisfied that
the humorous (?) journalist has foe
man worthy his steel in the person of
yourself. That he has struggled with
the truth with pernicious frugality,
goes without saying. The bold,
trenchant, and incisive cuts which
you have given the person who seeks
to belittle me under the cover of a
cowardly nom de plume, ought to
satisfy him. for the present at least,
and convince him that the pen he
disgraces could be put to more profit
able and better use. l thank you
again most sincerely and heartily for
the evidences of your high regard
and esteem, and your unalterable con
fidence in the honesty and integrity
of an old comrade-in. arms who never
betrayed a friend or ran from the
enemy.
l hope to have the pleasure OF
meeting you in our city on Inaugural
tion day, if not earlier, when l shall
be pleased to show how much l appre-
ciate your personal worth and value
your friendship,
| am, my dear sergeant, faithfully
and cordially yours, believe me.

The town is at present very quiet,
in consequence of it being harvest
time. The energetic reporter in his
fruitless effort to pick up something
OF local Importance to the patrons of
his paper, is indeed to be pitied, for
at this time there is a scarcity of local
happenings Socially we can always
find little going en-, and so l shall
look into society and see whether I
can CLEAN anything of Importance to
the readers of the JOURNAL.

tanned loss this week which is not

sentiment is greater in North Carolina
South Carolina, Alabama and Georgia
than it is in New England, but il has
not been worked up and directed in the

fact that a favorable sentiment exi.ts

that the WOman's Temperance Publi-

supply, will be forthcoming in Septem-

The primary lessons are written by Mrs

These lessons will have passed the
scrutiny ofssveral scientific students,
and We believe will meet the want
which has been described to us.

Probably the most remarkable case
on record Of a human being existing

Is that OF Miss Kate Smusley, who
Is lying at deaths door from self
starvation. She Is at her fathers res
idence, At Fort PLANES, n. Y. and all
efforts TO induce her 10 take food
have signaIly failed. Her father de
clares, and he Is a man whose word
Is reliable, that the girl has not par
taken of food In I60 days up TO noon
yesterday. She occasionally takes q
little water in her mouth, but does
not swallow lt as this causes convul-
sIons which seem to wrench hei
stomach painfully. She is terribly
emaciated, and not recognizable tC
her friends. Yet she recognizes hel
callers and carries on conversation
with them, and Is perfectly conscious
her body Is In constant motion II 20 q
machine, 30 much 80 that the bee
upon which she lies has to be sup
ported for fear 1t will fall to peaceI
by inc constant vibration. The cast
attracts much attention, and th,
house Is constantly oesieged witt
visitors. The girl can live bat |
few days longer at most. No ont
doubts that sho has tasted the unpre
