Gough, when he suddenly drew a revolve? and
fired upqn him. CoL Klein instantly sprang
forward to seize Bridrman. , askine him
as he did so what he was doing, to which B.
replied that he .''intended to kill the i d d s n

furiated vman he attempted to fire, upon his
Victim again, but his pltol missed- fire . when
his arms were seized in the vice-like grip of
the Colonel and his pistol was taken 'from
him. -At this juncture CoL Klein's assistant
arrived on the ground and Brldgman was taken

nearly through to the rear. The ball , was sub

Mr. John C. James, formerly. Local Editor

ture for Louisiana a few days since, where he
intends to embark In the business of cotton

He very wisely determined to commence

KocUfii o invalid -'msem snore-naltlVB to
changes of season and variations of tempera
ture than dyspeptics, and persons of bilious
habit. Tender lungs are not more easily af
fected by these, , vicissitudes rthaii - feeble
stomachs. If there is a tendency tffahe system
to Indigestion, ' biliousness, or bowel com
plaints, the variable weather of early spring
is almost sure to develope.one or other of
these' ailments.' Intermittent fevers are also
more prevalent In the spring months than at
any other season except autumn. . In view, of
these facts, this seems to be a proper timei to
invite especial attention to Hostetter's Stom-1
&ch Bitters, a medicine which for a long series
of years, has proved superior .to an others &'b
aremedy fpr the above named disorders and
as protection against the miasm which, fre
quently produces, fend always' aggravates
them. It was formerly the practice to give
violent cathartics as spring medicines," nor
is the' custom yet entirely obsolete. Nothing,
however, can be more ill-judged and unphilo
sophicaL. The chilling moisture with ..which
the air is loaded at the breaking up of winter,
presseslieavlly trpbn the vital forces of the
body,, and . reinforcement,' not depletion,- is
what it requires. f The Bitters is a genial and
excellent' tonic, a moderate alterative, and
just enough of an aperient to regulate; with
out convulsing, the bowels: "t Is; therefore, a
speclflo" peculiarlyj adapted tor the present
