even where there was superiority of intellect,
as in the of the late Lord Amberly, the presence
was often Insignificant and the manners shy and
awkward. If nothing worse. Not that men OF this
class were habually ovcrbearng; that IS rare
but they apt to be gauche nconsdcrae and by no
means what an American wOuld call hgh-bred, scarcely

A Reprieve for the Condemned.

Wretched men and women long con-
demned to suffer the tortnres of dyspepsia
are filled with new hope after few doses
of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. This budding
hope blossoms into the fruiton of certainty
if the Bitters is persisted in. 1t brings a
reprieve to all dyspeptics who seeks its
aid. Flatulence, heartburn, sinking at
the pit of the stomach between meals, the
nervous tremors and insomania of which
chronic indigestion is the parent, disappear
with their hateful progeritor. Most bene-
6cient of stomachics who can wonder
that in so many instances it awakcns
grateful eloquence in those who, benefited
by 1t, speak voluntarily in its behalf. 1t
requires graphic pen TO describe the
torments of dyspepsia, but in many of the
testimonials received by the proprieters of
tha Bitters, these are portrayed with vivid
truthfulness. Constipation, biliousness,
muscular debility, malarial fevers and
rheumatism are relieved by it.

EDITOR SENTINEL; The farmers OF Tai
lahatchie county baye been delayed in
planting this season on account OF rain.
Many think that crops will be cut short
this year.
We had very heavy rain on the 9th
inst, attended by heavy thunder. On
last Friday the wife and daughter Of
Austin Hughes, an industrious colored
farmer, living about three miles from
this place, were in the field at work.
About five or ten minutes before the
rain, his daughter, named Belle, who
was blowing, had reached the end of
row and her mother told her to 90 to tht
other end, and back, and then stop and
60 to the house. As Belle reached the
other end, lightning struck and killed
her instantly and crippled the horse
The lightning went down one side of her
body and cut her shoe in pieces. She
was buried on the Sth, in the presence of
a large number of sympathizipg friends.
