It different from all others. It is composed of 'the pure juices of vital principle op Roots, nUBS, and Barks (or as medicinally termed, extracts), the worthlessor inert portions of the ing not being used. Therefore, in one bottle of this Bitters there is contained as much medical virtue as will be fonnd in several gallons of ordinary mixtures. The Roots, Ac., used in this Bitters are rrnwn in Germany, their vita) principles ex tracted in that country by a scientific Chemist and forwarded to the manufactory in this city, where they are compounded and bottled. Containing no spirituous ingredients, this Bitters is free from the objections urged against all others; no desire for stimulants can be induced from their ie: they csnnot make drunkards, and cannot, under any circumstances, hare any but a beneficial result. Hooflaad's German Tonic Was compounded for those not inclined to extreme hitters, and is intended for ne in cases when some alcoholic stimulant is required in connection with the Tonic properties of the Bitters. Each bottle of the Tonio contains one bottle of the fitters, combined with pure Santa Crvz Rr and flavored in such a manner thu the extrem bitterness of the Bitters is overcome, forming a preparation highly agreeable and pleasant to the palate, and containing the medicinal virtues of the Bitters. The price of the Tonic is $1.50 per bottle, which many persons think too high. They must take into consideration that the stimulant vied is guaranteed to be of & pure quality. A poor article could be furnished at a cheaper price, bat is it not better to pay a little more and have a giod article? A medicinal preparation should contain none tut the best ingredients, and they who expect to of- in a cheap compound will most certainly be cheated.

Look at thatl' cried my grandmother, striking an attitude worthy ot Ldj Macbeth, when she addressed the ftal spot on her hand; this lime, however, it was only the scissors which, in falling, stood upright in the flor. I see. It's nothing uncommon, is it?' 'Did you ever kuow it to happen that a stranger didot come before the day was oui7' 'I never noticed; somebody was always coming for the matter of that. I tell you thai sign don't fail' (my grandmother always used double negatives when she ruetit to be emphatic,) most others will, but that's true as a book. And another thing, there was a stranger in my tea to-night, a long one that shows 'tis a man that's cotbio'. Some folks set a great deal by that sign; but it ain't to be mentioned the same day with the scissors standing up in the floor.' 'I hope he will come soon, or the storm will fce here before him;' and with the words the wind went wailing around the house, and the first big drops beat against he window panes Thre sctrre years and ten had not taken the first bloom from the romance ol my grandmother's character; it was fresh and treen as in her childhood. Beggars heard ot her afar vff and rat to fall on the neck of her charity. She followed the advice of Lamb without ever having read it. When a poor creature came before her, she stayed not to rnquire whether the 'seven small chil. dreo, in whose name he implored her as t-is t a nee, had a veritable existence, but cast bcr bread upon the waters and lived in faith. In fact, she had cast so much bread up on the waters in the course of her long life, and so small a proportion had come back to her, that she had nothing left for herself except the old farm and the gamb-rel-roofed house. Within its walls my father hsd first seen the light, and lived till he went out to fight the world. He fell early in the strife, and my mother Soon followed him; but not until she had marked out my way in life, and so fixed me in the groove of her ideas that I had no choice left. I went to a village academy till I was old enough to enter the 'Normal School, for nij destiny was to be a teacher My little income had to be eked out in some way; and of all work to which a woman may turn her hshd, a school, perhaps, divides the burden most equally between body and mind When I graduated my grandmother left the old gambrsl roof to see me do it, and carried me home with her for a 'breathing spell,' (as 6he said,) befors getting a place to teach. As to my future I was neither happy nor unhappy, but rather between. At twenty life runs on with very little friction there is excitement enough in mere youth to make living a pleasure. The evening drew on witb ever-increasing gusts of wind, and the old house shook to its foundation but it clung gallanty to the great central chimney, which, being nearly as broad as it was high, could afford to be indifferent when wind, and weather came together and made a night of it. '1 hope you don't mean to Fit up for that somebody who is coming. All signs fail in wet weather. The words were scarcely spoken when we heard fbe tread of a horse running at full speed down the steep hill above the house, then a crash of the fence and all whs still. We held our breath and listened. Soon man's step sounded low and heavy on the walk and my grandmother rushed to open the door. 'Don't be scart, said the familiar voice of one of our neighbors, and be stumbled in, carrying a man pale tod lifeless in his arms. Lay him right on the lounge get the comphor bottle here's somebody, sure enough-don't telj one again tbat signs ever fail. Who is it, Job?' 'I 'dunno his name; city fellow. I reckon.

He'll give you trouble enough before you're done with him. Now, I'll go after the doctor; tain't noway likelv he'll know any more what's the matter than we do; but pretend to, and if the man dies it's bis fault and not ourn The doctor found no bones broken, but tbe bead was injured, and he must be put to bed and kept as quiet as possible. Now was my grandmother in her element. You couldn't work any harder,' aaid 1, if he were your own eon. 'He is somebody's own son, we mustn't never forget that, you know.' Our patient fell from his first fainting tit into a fever; and from morning till morning again, he tossed and turned with one continuous cry to drive faster, for he must be in Meriden that night. My grandmother was nurse-in-chief, but she often made me her deputy when, the labor began to wear upon her. The doctor had found some cards in tbe note book of our patient, with the "name "John Jacob Deane engraved on them; but we had no other clew to his identity. it is tmpossioio to watcn over a patient, day and night, striving to be both brain and hands for him, without growing into a very strong feeling toward him of attachment or dislike. It was eo with me, though scarcely dared whisper to myself which or der of feeling my own should belong. I thought of him all the time, and if he had died it would have been a blow to tne, al beit l had never beard him speak a conscious word. . It was the tenth day-of the fevr, tin3 be had been motionless for a long time; a sudden movement made me look up. His eyes were lastened upon me with a new expression. 1 knew that he saw me for the firs' time. Don't leave Tne,' be said faintly, as I was about to call on my grandmother. I gave bim the cordial which had been keru for this crisis, and he received it r.t occe Tell me all shout it,' he stid, I wis bound for Meriden, what then?' You jumped from the wagon when tbe horse was running near our hocso, and were brought in insensible. Last night, I suppose; I must go on to Mriden to day.' We suppose it was ten days ago, and you could go to the moon as easily as to Meriden. The doctor Bays you must be very quiet.' Jupiter Tonans! ten days! Whose bouse is this?' "It belongs to my grandmother, Mrs. Temperance Hale 1 will call her to see yon'' Thank you; I can wait. Perhaps the sight of another stranger might fatigue me too much ' . But I thought be might safely be left alone for a while. He will talk all tbe time,' said I to my grandmother when she went up stairs. 'I don't see but he is quite enough,' she said, coniitig down again in a few minutes, 'lie wants you to write a letter for him.' I wrote one this wise from bis dotation:' Dear Mary I came to grief within five miles of Meriden, as they tell tne I have been liht headed for the matter of ten days. The business that I came on will have to be done all over again. Nevertheless, I will not 'abandon hope' till I etiter at the door which, according to Dante, bears that inscription. 'Ever yours, 'J. J. Deans.' 'You must not -speak another word,' I said, imperatively. 'I promise, if you will sing again what you were singing when I found myself in the body this afternoon.' So I sang 'Allen Percy and 'Auld Robin Gray,' and two or three other old ballads of which I had a store, and my patient soon fell into a healthy sleep. The next day he found his appetite, and from that time came back to healih with wonderful rapidity. He was docile as a lamb to my grandmother, but witb me he became the most exacting and troublesome convalescent that ever tried a woman's patience. He openly preferred my grandmother's daioty dishes, and if I left him for an hour his bell would ring, and I went back to find his pillows on the floor and his head so hot that nothing but Btroking it with cologne and singing all the while would cool it. To keep him still I read aloud for hours, thinking far more of him than my book. Ve grew very well acquainted with these long summer days, till I went to Meriden on a shopping expedition. I found a thick letter at the post office for Mr. Deane, which had been lying there nearly three weeks. It was directed in a lady's band, and I thought the sight of it brought a shadow to bis face. He looked so glad to see me after my two hours absence, that I went up stairs in quite a flutter of spirits. Could it be possible that I was to taste at last the joy of which I bad heard and read with unsatisfied longing? Bat I would not stop to think about it. Here's a letteT for you that Job brought in while you were gone,' said my grandmother. I took it and glanced at Mr. Deane. He sat by the open window reading one fcbeet of his letter with knit brows, while the other lay beside him. Sudenly a lieht breeze whirled it oat into the flowerplat, and I ran out to get it. It bad not occurred to me to he curicus about the letter, and nothing was farther from my thoughts than to read even the date of it; but the writting was large and plain, and, as I stooped to pick it tip, the first four words were buried in my mind like letters of fire. 'My own dear busband.' Surely it should have beeo nothing to me that Mr Deane's wife bad written to bins, but, woe is me, he fact of bia baring a wife at all waa like 4 demb blow to mewnM tne instant ectvre

Doubtless tha.t was the 'Dear Mary' to whom T had written that first letter frotn bis dictation, and I had foolishly taken it for granted that she was his sister. He bad never spoken ot her, but married people ' are alwavs mysterious, and her price mieht be far above rubies nevertheless. He had done nothing to make her jealous.

'What will Mr. Deane say to your going away? said my grandmother, when I ha i impressed on her mind my iutj to Aunt Rachel. 'I don't care what be savs? vniuv u ticii nor wun mi rni fptnr eome to help her with tha hiMpn?'

I said She never answered a wor, but just kissed roe on both eyes, -and stroked my hair tenderly for a rcinuts or tvro. Then we parted for the night, and I went away iin the mornmrr before Mr. Dean ira up. Aunt Rachel rras out of sight of 'death's dooi' long beforo I reached her, s I had ccnfidsr.tly supposed she would be; but eh welcomed r.n heartily, and the kisses of the children soothed somewhat the pcre spot -n my heart. Fcr the next three days the cctivity of tha busy bee, long ago impaled on a poetier! pin, was not to be oornpand with nine. If tbera are any gifts ofhatKkig in mere work, I vra determined to hare therj out of it; but the image of M. Doano was ever in my mina'c eye, tnd as people say wtio nave riot been to tha 'Normal, I got no better fast. Last of all I went hucklcberrying T;ith the children, and picked as for my life. 'There's a strange man octaing across the "field,' said one of them. I looked up after & minute, and, tock Mr. Dei; no's offered hand. 'If you teach school as you pick berries your fortune vill soon be made,' he said, with tke glad look in his eyes which scoicod to banish thnt dreadful wife of his to the uttermost parts cf the earth. 'How did you find me?' 'By my wits, chiefly. Your grand mother was us tnytorious over your Jc--j parturo as it you had gone into a convent; but when I told her I htd good news for you, she relented and gave me the olue to your hiding place.' 'Aunt llachel directed you here? 'Procisely 'What is your new."?' 'I have heard of a school you can bave for the asking .' 'I am exceedingly obliged to you.' 'It is a private schopl, and very small, but it has the reputation of beir.g didcult to manage; and from all that 1 know of you, I bave concluded that you will be the right person. Will you undertake it?' Yes, if you are Eure of my fitness.' '1 haven't a doubt of it. 1 said the school was small it has, in fact, one scholar, aged thirty-two, and his name is John Jaoob Deano. If I said anything or committed myself in any way for some minutes after this astounding speech, I have entirely forgotten it. 'And that latter I found myself saying after awhild. Was from my sister to her busband, ! who bad deserted her. It was to look after him and bring bim to reason that I1 was riding post-haste to Meriden that wild night. She inclosed it in a letter tome. I forcot to mention, he said, after a pause, which was notso without cioquenco of his own, 'that my school begins about the first of September.' 'Not if I am to teach it,' said I. !'I shall spend the month and others after it in turning all my fortunes into the pretty thing that I hve always longed for.' When Miss Rebecca Yerjuijc, my former room mate at the 'Normal,' heard the story of my eng gement, she wrote me a letter of congratulation, in which she intimated darlky that mine would be one of he many marriages pounded on gratitude. 'John Jacob,' said I, solmnly, when I saw him again, 'if you are to marry me out of gratitudo, tell me at once that I may be off to my Aunt Rachel while there is yet time. My dear little school mistress, be replied, 'if I had been moved only by gratitude, I should have proposed to your grandmother. An Indiana pedagogue going to school on a cold morning, lately, found himself locked out by a number of scholars who were inside. He 0oi a ladder, ascended the roof, and laid a board over the top of the chimney to smoke them out. They took away his ladder, and left him sitting on the ridge-pole till be froze bis ears and fingers and agreed to vld to their demand. Then they let him down.

My Friend, you have chosen the name 1 inherited for your town with an extraordinary unanimity, and have thereby conferred an honor upon me, the proper acknowledgement of which 1 do not feel fully able to express. But I beg you to be assured that it is appreciated aod that it will be gratefully remembered with a living interest in you prosperity while life remains to me, and, I trust, beyond that bv my children after me. "if this name has become noted among tbe many that are worthier around you, I that is greatly due to its publicity. May j I be permitted to state whence that came? , Until within a few centuries all the civilized nations of the globe were pent up on K,tern continent. Twoor three hun dred years ago they leaked over into this; few and fearfully at first, then more and more but always in their settlements timidly .hugging the Atlantic oosst. Within the lastrtwo or thee generations, they have burst out, as it were, and over-run these rast continents of the West. Now they are scattered here and possess these measureless stretches of mountains and valleys, hill, plains, forests and prairies with the boundless pampas and mountain ranges ot South America. Former generations lived in villages and towns, thickly setttled together where physicians were plenty na near at hand. Now, the people are widely scattered, in many sections of these many countries.

The Democratic hatred of Gen. Grant is tho Ku-Klus hatred of Icyal men it the Southern States. He is the perpetual monu.uent of the crushed rebellion. His presence in tha White House is the constant cssertion of supremacy of the Republican principles of liberty, union and law. The same spirit which hissed at Lincoln as a gorilla and a despot, and at the Union soldiers as hirelings, denounced Grant in the Sold as a butcher and aoold at him now as a Tool."

The grcatcut calamity that Could" comi upon France aftor the Prussian conquest is now upon her In civil -.Tar. A revolationtry party has taken possession of the capital, pronounced acair.st the government of the National Assembly, and nosr holds prsa?r.ion op the principal meant red organizations cf f.iree fcr immediate tction. It will bi ren.smhored that at th surrender tho National Guard, or militia, at Varis, or a certain part of them, were) a'lowed to retain their arma for the preset vaion of order. The mst were delivered ' to th Prnsisns. Thereby Paris was disarmed, except as to the arms in tbe hands of the National Guard. Tho other foroes were in the provinces remote from' Paris, and for some resson there has been delay in moving any of them to the capital. The Yssular Rnldiers of the empire ar ' prteorrrs in Germany, and when released are without arms or organization or au thorifed officers. Thus the National Guard at Paris waa left master of he situation. The National Assembly decreod-the empire abrogated.' tt was using power only to make peace, andt prepare tbe way by which the cation mieht choose its government. Bat tho National Guard cose to suspect that the National Amenably has designs tgainst the liberties cf the people, tnd to S3t up itself ft the protector of iLetrj. The provisional government tcrsporifei r.Il thin insurrection, exhorting the men to mv the nation from this disorder wi-.iob trcall destroy the prospect cf estahluhlcg gov ernment, and might bring fo;e:gn lotor vention.

Rut so far as it has undertaker, to ts troops to take possession ofplaces cr :ra, or to defend places, they havo fraisrnicad with tho National Gurd and the popu'.s;, under tbe cry of the republic, which to thero conveys the idea of the mob. Th;y have now shown the fierceness of t!.ir temper bv the execution of three nilitry officers who fill into their btnua. aad bf the murder of various other ctlrc? asd policemen who were using pecscablo ritir to restrain disorder.

II disables the provisional government from fulfilling the obligations it has und3r!alen to Prusi, and thu it threatens a Ptn sian reoccupation of Paris, aod an intervention to set op a "government that' can maintain order. The government of the Nationil Assembly can not vacate i?a office and leave to the Paris mob to form a government. Thero would be no hope of peace in that coare. It roust sfsert , its authority, and maintain the richt of the people of Franco to elect their g-overn-rcent. The beginning cf the undertaking seerns to reqairo a ner siege of Paris.
