other distinguished delegates from other

ing about 3 O'Clock, Immediately after the
organization and appointment of the
committee on resolutions, but it is not
likely that he will begin before O'Clock.
Carlisle's speech will make about II 900

A Leaf FIuttered by the wind

Is not more tremulous than nerves debili-
tated or overstrained. Nights of unrest
followed by days of discomfort are the
common lot Of the nervous. This class
of invalids, too, is usually troubled with
indigestion and imperfect assimilation.
Indeed, to the inability Of the system to
perform these twin functions may be
largely attributed all nervous symptoms.
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters is sovereign
remedy for nervousness. Dyspepsia and
non n-assimilation of food are remedied by
it, as are also n,alarial and kidney com
plants, blliousness, constipation and
rheumatism. Confirmed nervousness can
not be permanently remedied by opiates
OF sedatives, which are highly pref judicial
to health, and soon fail of effect save in
increased doses. The Bitters first initiates,
then confirms vigorous discharge of the
various functions, and removes obstacles
to that end. Take it persistently at
regular intervals.

A prominent gentleman of Silver City,
says the Sentinel, recently had occasion
to address a friend of his in Las Cruces,
and, in patronizing way, prefxed his
name with the military title of "colonel."
In order that our readers may understand
the degree of odium attached to that ap-
pellation, as casually applied, we quote
portion of the letter the Silver City
gentleman received In reply to the one
sent:
"You are, presume, ignorant of the
odium conveyed by the title colonel
added to the address of man in this sec
tion.
"Now, as am plain, inoffensive citi-
zen, never having consciously won the
right to wear title borne In New Mex
leo by horse thieves and their consorts,
most respectfully request that should
you have occasion to address me in fu-
ture, you will kindly omit the application
of term which is in a very high degree
offensive"
