The Senate i resumed th$ considera tion of the legislative, judicial and ex ecutive appropriation bill. . ....s Saunders read a short speech in op position to the bill; that the use of the military is necessary to secure fair elec tions in the South. Whyte said the political clauses of the bill were not extensive enough to meet his views, which were opposed to all Federal interference, civil or mikV tary, in State affairs. In his judgment there is no such thing as a national election. Elections are either State or municipal. Senators and Representa tives are agents of, and responsible to, the States. There has been no . proto type for our form of government He (Whyte) made a constitutional and his torical argument to support those views. Mr. Jonas, of Louisiana, followed. At 4 o'clock the vote was taken. Ed munds' motion to strike out the claus es repealing the statutes relating to the test oath wa lost yeas 26, nays 37.

The House resumed, as the business of the morning hour, the bill to amend the laws relating to transfer of cases from Stste to Federal courts, and Urner concluded his argument against it I he silver bill was further consider ed and the third and fourth sections adopted, after which the House ad journed. ' i i 21st The Hoase in the mornincr hour resumed the transfer of cases bill but the hour was used ud bv Republi can filibustering and the hill went over. lne consideration or the silver bill was resumed.and the remaining sections down to the seventh were agreed to. with amendments, when the House ad journed. m The Death f Mr. B. Frank WIImh The announcement in Tuesdav morn ing's Observer of the sudden death the previous night of Mr. B. Frank Wilson, fell upon the community with all the force of an electric shock. His popu larity was universal. All classes of our people admired and esteemed him, and very many, who were bound to him by no lies ot blood, teit in ins death a per sonal bereavement Mr. Wilson was a man not only of the most lovable and amiable disposition ; he was more than this: to a high and chiyalric spirit geni ality of manner, and great sweetness of temper, he added a greater number of the Christian' graces than are often found combined in one person, and hence it was that while he was general ly beloved in the community he was no less generally admired and respected. fn.- x ' r i t : a line wasaiioweu us jnoiiuay uiut only to record the fact of his death. The circumstances leading to the discovery of it may be briefly adverted to here: lie did not appear at tea, out it was sup posed that he was at the house of some friend. Late at night he was still ab sent and had not been seen. His room door was tried and found to be locked. The kev could be seen on the inside. A ladder was procured and an entrance to tbe room made through a window, when the body was found lying cold upon the floor. It was half-dressed, indicating that Mr. Wilson was preparing to go out when the attack came upon him. Physicians were summoned and these agreed that life had at that time been extinct for six hours. Tuesday Coroner Alexander sum moned as ajury 'Messrs. Wm. Sloan, D. W. Oates. J. E. Oates, R. M. Oates, J. C. Burrouirhs. W. 8. Forbes. W. W. Pe- gram, A. B. Davidson, H. G. Springs, E. S. BurwelL E.

Jones, who, after mak. ing a postmortem examination of the body, signed a paper setting forth that "death was caused by a rupture of some of the blood vessels of the brain, thus producing apoplexy." This also was the verdict of the jury. The funeral services look place yes terday morning at the First Presbyteri an church, or which he was a most con sistent and devoted member. The ser vices were largely attended, and the sermon of the pastor was one of his mo3t eloauent efforts, uniting with a beautiful tribute to the dead an urgent reminder to the living to be prepared at anvtimeV The tnusiejwAskby the Gou nod Musical Club, of which Mr. Wilson was an invaluable member, and after the services the remains were borne to Elmwood cemetery.' followed Dy a large concourse, and there interred. - Tnnwh the htehest standard of health, nature demands the utmost regularity of the bowels; a alight deflation brings man?

Pnteet tne Ijstm trm Malaria. ft Is possible to da this even in regions of eoun try where miasma is most rife, and where the periodic fevers which It causes assume their most formidable types. The immense popularity of Hostetter's Stomach Bitten is very largely attribu table to the fact of Its efficacy as a remedy for chills and fever, bullous remittents, and as a pre ventive of the various forms of malarial disease. In those portions of tbe West and South where complaints of this nature prevail, and in the Tropica, it is particularly esteemed for the pro tective influence which tt exerts; and Unas been very widely adopted as a substitute for the danger ous and comparatively ineffective alkaloid, sul phate of quinine. Physicians have not been among the last to concede its merits, and the em phatic professional indorsements which it has received have added to the reputation it has ob tained at home and abroad.
