thought OF that, and patented de-

superfiuous bile, checks q tendency to coDges-

action and affords relief to the stomach, which
is usually inactive, out of order and oppressed
with wind when the bowels are costive. Use
the Bitters also in fever and sgue rheumatism

other rich fabrics, like brocade and

the reverse. being frequently far more
uncomplimcntary in its effect than

of instances a tendency to accentuate

The threatened disbandment OF the
Delaware militia results from a feel
ing among the rural voters, who rule
Delaware, that such an organization
is an expensive toy. The whole state
government of Delaware, including
the pay Of legislators and judges,
costs much less than 800, 600 year,
and to appropriate $4,000 a year to
what seems mere show strikes the
rural voter as wild extravaganza.

notice that no more militia companies

A Monument.

A fine monument OF Italian marble
is TO be erected at Charlottesville,
Ca, to the memory Of Alexander II.
Stephens. 1t will be a monument as
well to the energetic spirit Of Miss
Mary Gay, who almost single handed
has directed the collection OF sub

fifty years of age. Her devotion to

the fact that her fiance was killed in
