?je Q REE M Vfl^tjK, <. O. , % Our Future? Now thai the mighty conflict, which haa been so tealously waged, during tha or eight months, throughout tha broad extent of our country haa baeu brought to a close, * and tha smoke of battle cleared sufficiently to enable on to survey the held, and enumerate the gains and 'lottos, 1st us phylesophlcally abide the result, hopefully and earnestly oontemplatlog tha future. Gen. liuauir has beau ro-elected to tho Presidency of tho Up i tod States, whilst Gen. Mosas has beeu selected by the poople of South Carolina, to serve them, as their Governor, each by 07erwhelming majorities. Although both of these diatin* gulshed personages exult in the high and honorable title of General yat wa oannotsay that the success of each is attributable to bis deeds of daring, or high examples of military prowess, nor do wa design at this time to discuss tho causes which induced the promotion of thoso individuals. The fiat has gone forth and in these are the embodiment of our hopes to fill up the *' bloody chasm." Whether the unprecedented triumph of Gee. Grant is to be esteemed ft signal illustration of the aagaolty and patriotism of the American people,)perhaps thoso who contributed, with so mush zoal to his victory. will not deny. Let us wait and soe. We know the defeated are prone to be despondent, and after an overwhelming victory npt to become demoralised* whilst the more independent and dispassionate strenuously duuiand and earnestly insist, that the result .-hall not be suffered to over-bear or obscure any truth which boa rightfully and honestly been contended for. The returns show that the South has given Gen. Grant a small majority. Lot us accept this result, and liko mon who have common interests, and an earnest desire for oUr country's weal, strive byunK ted effort to build up our section's industrial ami commercial prosperity. We cannot afford to waste years in sighing for the impossible, or strivcing for that which is, at this timo, beyond our roach. Lot us realise and keep constantly in view the fact, " that we have yet a homo to adorn, nnd a country to live for." We must livo, and lire here. It is our homo, it is our country. All the affections of our hearts cling around this grand little Stato; and the world can never boost of better men, truer hearts or wiser statesmanship. Bnt we cannot lire in the midst of turmoil and sterilo agitation. Much has been done in the way of recuperation since the war, bnt mnch more remains to be accomplished. May we net hope that the close of tho late canvass, marks the opening of a new era, wherein publio measures of great moment shall be considered without prejuUico, ana either approved or condcmnefl according to their intrinsic worth. It is possible to mnko public opinion inoro powerful by aiding to inako it more discerning and just.? The returns also show that the opposition will be weaker in this Congress, than the last. This waakness may be advantageous to them, as the strength of those in power may be a source of peril to them. John lt.VNDoi.rn once said that one was the best possible majority. When Mr. Munrok was chosen President with only one dissenting elector, the party which elected him, at the ensuing election, dissolved into fragments and had four candidates in the field. It is to bo hoped that these facts will not be lost sight of by the prevailing party, and that the second administration of Gen. Grant may prove a just and successful one. In reference to State affairs, we can offer no award of encouragement, as yet. The recently elected State officials have not taken chargo of the Stato government up to this writing, but it is earnestly desired that they may see it to their own interest, anck-to the intorest of their party in this State, as it really and truly is, henceforth to administer prudently, economically and with justice. Doing this, they can rest assured that they will receive their full measure of reward from the Conservative voters and press throughout the State. Another Firo in Abbeville. An extra from the office of the Mali am conveys to us the startling news of the terrible calamity which has again and so shortly revisited our sister town of Abbeville. A distinctive fire on the morning of the 17th inst., lias swept away the neat and costly buildings which composed the Granite flange, and what was once a monument of t.he?!abor and industry ol years, now lies a heap of charred and blackened ruins. It is supposed that the origin of the fuc was in the kitchen of Mr A M Hill, whose wife was ' with t lie irreatest difficult v saved from the; fliimi f. Burn well A Co. hail their store burned, and saved nothing ; insurance, $6, 000. The store of A M Hill A Co waa also burned, a portion of their stock being saved ; insured for $2,S00 in the Continental. The furnitdfe store of J D Chalmers A Co was also destroyed by the devouring element. A portion of their stock was also saved ; insured for $l.,600. The Clerk's, Sheriff** and County Commissioners' offices were totally consumed, with al^their books* papers and record*. It will be recollected, that these offices sustained heavy losses by fire in January last; now nothing is left.? Such a loss is incalculable, and must cause complications and embarrassments. At the drng store of Lee A Paiker, the fire ended in a southerly direction, 'A portion of their stock was saved. Insurance $2,000. The progress of the fire in a northerly direction whs checked at the wall of the store of Wllhlluw A Rfl wiir/lfl Wa nrroa # o miaL*. _ ? 6.?? . ttine receives from in the fullest degree of eympalhy, and it is to be sincerely hoped, that those who were so prudent as to in* sure, will be, in a great measure, able to repair their losses. ?? ?? Epizootic. The horse dlssMe, recently so prevalent in rnoeb of the cities North and Northwest, made.its appesranee in our oity last week. There is at this time about thirty horses at jOrkkd's Livery Stables, at (bis place, affect ed.

The Comptroller Gen has issued an officia order, instructing tho County Auditors of the varions Counties in the State to levy a tax to be collected between the 20th inst, and 16th January next.

The sestof ibis process is in the intestines. In the duodenum (the portion of the intestines neit to the stomach) the food, dissolved in the gastrlo juice, is commingled with tbo bile and the panoreatic fluid, which are poured in through two separate ducts. The latter substance, the secretion of the pencreas, is alkaline, and somewhat similar to saliva. It neutralises(that is, dissolves) oils ; and also converts starchy compounds in to augur. The bile, again, ia the secretion of the liver, formed not aa other aeoretlona, from arterial, but, exceptionally, from ?*?? blood. Tbe diaaolred food, after paaaing from the atomaeh, ia abeorbed by numerous minute tubes, the lactrato, and, through the thoracic duet, ia led from the laeteals to the left subclavian vein, and thus into the general circulation. The food ao becomes part of tbe blood the fluid which renovates tbe worn-out tissues of the system, worn-out in life'* eeaseless wear and tear, ltut, besides being an agent in the digestive process, the bile is also nature's ehosen and most efficient laxative and purgative. Now Dr. Fisch's Bitters promote, (at tbe same time regulating,) the flow of this secretion. Tbe system is thus effectually secured from biliousness on the one hand, and from constipation on the other. Violent purging is not the way to remove constipation.? Neither is violent purging a purifier of tbe blood. An abundanoe of food, with an abnndanee of bile and the allied fluids, to digest It, will make an abundanoe of good, nourishing, strengthening blood, not needing purifying.

Since the exposure of the attempts made by | certain unscrupulous local dealers, to palm off ' their coarse astringentj, made from cheap and impure materials, n the place of the great national tonic, Hosteller's Stomach Bitters, pub- 1 lie opinion hat set strongly against those tinpirics and their preparations. Their occupation is gone, or soon will be. When the light is let into deception it soon wilts down. Persons who trifle with their own health, by using uns known preparations, with no guarantee to sustain them, when an established specific, proven by twenty years experienoe to be exactly what it it olaitned to be, is within their reach, are sure to repent their temerity. Many have done so in this instance, but it is hoped that the truth plainly spoken has arrested the evil. In the meantime the demand for the leading protective and restorative medieina of Atneru ca was never so great as it has been this season. From the fever and agno districts of the west, and south, it is literally overwhelming, and it may be said of the advices from all parts of the country of the cares it is effecting in dispepsia, bilious complaints, and chronic constipation, that " their name is leghjq."? Everywhere the siek and feeble seem to have realised the importance of ' holding fast that which is good," and avoiding what is spurious and dangerous. The numerous " Bitters," under various names, whiob mercenary dealers endeavor to substitute for Hosteler's Stomach Bitters, should be avoided, for their own sokes, by the sick and the public at large. Uosteter's Stomach Bitters are procurable in bottles only and never sold in bulk. 8trong Testimony Stkuik>villb, Ohio, Sept., 4 1871. Dr. Wih. H.
