A Terrible Misfortune.

1t is a calamity of the direst kind to
feel that ones physical energies are
failing in the prime of life-to feel
more nerveless, more dispirited, weaker
every day. Yet this Is the unhappy
lot OF hundreds who surround'us. A
source of renewed strength which sci
ence approves, in behalf Of which null
titudes of the debilitated have and are
every day testifying, and which, in
countless instances, has built up con-
situations sapped by weakness and in
trinity and long unbeneftted by other
means, surely commends itself to all
who need q tonic. Hostetter's Stom-
ach Bitters Is such q medicine-pure,
botanic, soothing to the nerves, pro-
motive of digestion and fertilizer of
the blood. Dyspepsia and nervous
ness-the first q cause, the second q
consequence of lack of stamina-de-
part when a course of the Bitters Is
tried. All forms of malarial disease,
rheumatism, kidney and bladder
trouble, constipation and biliousness
are annihilated by this standard fam
lily medicine.

The Moons of Mars.
Times.

1t was announced two months ago
that Aspah Hall had discovered at
Washington, on the 18th and 18th of
August, two satellites of Mars, their
diameters being, as ii seemed, not
greater than ten kilometers, and their
times of revolution around their GEN.
trail planet being shorter than had been
observed In any similar case. The
outer moon, named DeimOs, was said
TO perform its revolution in thirty
and one half hours, and the inner one,
Phobos, In seven and three quarter
hours. NJ. K. Dubois read some days
ago paper on this subject before the
French Academy of Sciences, in which
he pointed out that such celebrity was
quite at variance with the theory of
the movements of the celestial bodies
in space, according to which no satel-
lite performs its revolution around its
principal more quickly than the lat
ter revolves around its own axis.
NJ. Dubois inclines to the opinion
that the moons of Mars are two of the
planetoids which have such anomalous
and seemingly varying orbits. He
thinks that, in one of these aberra-
tions, they came so near to Mars that
they were caught and detained within
its sphere of attraction. AS fact,
one of those planeto ODDS, -Ethra, has so
very eccentric an orbit that it comes
very near Mars. On the l tn of Sep
TENDER, 1876, it came within 100000
miles of Mars and has, not since been
seen. But even at that nearness the
attractive force of Mars would be
many thou sand times less than that of
the sun so we must be prepared to
admit some extraordinary planetic
disturbances before we could imagine
the transformation of one of these
planetoids into q satellite of Mars.
Still, the disappearance of Kthra and
the discovery twelve years afterward
of the two moons of Mars are singular
condolences.

One Fact

Is worth a column of rhetoric, said an
American statesman. Ii IL q fact, es-
tablished by the testimony Of thou
sands of people, that Hoods S,rsapa-
rilla does cure scrofula, salt rheum,
and other diseases or affections aris-
ing from impure state or low condi-
ton of the blood. 1t also overcomes
that tired feeling, creates q good ap-
petite, and gives strength to every

What on earth is "femAle slipper"
Perhaps Il belongs to the category of
"female pills" Ihave read of "mourn-
ing pima" Can you fancy q pin In
grief7 No one ever hears OF q mourn
ing needle, though the latter imple-
ment has at least an eye wherewith to
weep. "Invalid furniture" is largely
advertised, and, as the prices are not
by any means low, 1t may be conject-
ured that IL is not the furniture itself
to which the adjective Is applied.
Perhaps the expression 'decayed
tradesman" Is the most disturbing of
all phrases. The words raise fright
full ideas in the literal minded.

this may he due to the different nationality

While Mr.. Brownell, accustomed to the amaz-
ing imaginations of the newspapers of the
wild West. the enterprise of the New York
dailieS, the humber efforts at sensation of
the minor journals, finds that the French
Underwriters present subtly ascertained
truth In take-it or leave-it ma lner (Mr.
Brownell's work is not at hand, and if the
impression of memory is at fault the fault is
unlntentionaD while Mr.. Hamerten finds
that the French journalist may be wildly
inaccurate, wrong in all his statements and
give suppositions in the place of facts, but
ne cannot afford to be dull, as he addresses
readers whose chief popularity, as he well
knows, is to be inattentive.
These few points, among very many, have
been taken from afr. Hamerton's volume,

Portland & Ogdensburg railway, and the
validity of this vote was the subject under
consideration ia the present case. The
court finds that vote valid with the excep-
ton already stated. of about 1877 shares,
which are to be deducted from the 24S4
shares to determine the present amount oil
the city's interest and the result, therefore,
is to give the city $155,610 more OF
stock in the Portland & Ogdensburg railway
than has heretofore been conceded to it. The
case was complicated somewhat by the reg
iStry Of the city bonds, but the substance OF
the questions involved is as above stated
The Maine Central when it leased the
Portland Sc Ogdensbnrg railroad agreed to
pay the stockholders one per cent on the
par value of the stock yearly for the first
three years and two per cent yearly there
after. This additional city stock will yield
therefore 81 1856 year for two years to come
the lease has been operation year-and
$3,112 every year thereafter Further than
this, inasmuch as the Maine Central agreed
to pay the percentage above on all the stock
legally issued or to be issued from the date
of the lease 1t will be obliged to pay one per
cent on this additional stock for the year
which the lease has been in operation. This
Will amount to over $500. If we assume the
market value of share of the stock to be $50
which will not be far out of the way when
the Maine Central pays two per cent on Its
par value, the effect of the decision is to add
$4,000 to the assets Of the city.
To Judge Symonds who was city solicitor
when the case was tried before the Supreme
Court and who managed it from its inception
to its conclusion very great share of the
credit of securing this large sum to the city
belongs. He really discovered the city's
claim. chung to it amid many discourage
ments. put it into legal shape. and finally
argued it with consummate ability before
the Court

Recent Ceylon papers contain accounts of
a remarkable ceremony which took place re-
Gently in Colombo. This was the reception
of a gentleman from America, who lately ar
rived in Ceylon, into the Buddhist creed.
The proceedings took place under the drec-
ton of the Buddhist high priest, assisted by
eleven yellow-robed monks. The convert
knelt before the assembled priests and in
timated his desire to be admitted member
Of the Buddhist Church. The high priest
then catechised him and the assembled
monks satisfied themselves that he was fitted
to be follower of Buddah. The gentleman
whose name was Powell, then begged of the
high priest "to give him the Pansil," which
the latter did, the candidate repeating it after
him with the palms of the hands brought
together uplifted. Having explained to the
convert the responsible duties of Buddhist
the high priest gave him his blessing.

Foor John Roach would have lived could
ne have heard the words of praise now
spoken of the Dolphin by Rear Admiral Jou-
EFT, The Dolphin has been three years and
nine months in commission. and has return
ed from cruise of fifty-eight thousand
miles without joint sprung or sign of
weakness about her anywhere. She has
made fourte en- and sixteen knots at sea, and
is, In Admiral Jouett's opinion, "very credit
able to the service" 1t will be remembered
that the Dolphin was condemned by Secre-
tsry Whitney for structural weakness"
and that this Official act Of the Secretary Of
the Navy drove Roach out Of the business
which he had made his life work, breaking
him down financially and physically. Secre--
tary Whitney did some commendable things
in the course of his administration, but the
persecution of John Roach was not one OF
them. The vessel that the old shipbuilder
made, has shown itself so staunch and capa-
BILE, as to win the praise of one Of the most
accomplished officers In the navy.
