It ia dover in the President, and flat-1 toring to the people, to open bis bndget on loreign affairs with tho vivid and ori? ginal observation that "the United States is tho freest of all nations." Houcc, we sympathize with all peoplo "struggling foe liberty and self-government." The circumstance that several sister and sove? reign Southern States struggled awhile tor self-government and liberty to wallop their.own niggers, is not referred to in the message in this connection. '[Cincinnati Commercial, (Republican.) m ? ? . At tho National Labor Convention, (negro,) in Washington, J. M. Langston, of Ohio, reported a lengthy address to the laboring men of the country, which was under consideration for som o time, and. discussion was had upon striking out the word "negro" and inserting "co? lored." The latter was finally (by vote) substituted. Langston is a negro, and he knows it, and is not ashamed of the faefc 'The barn of Mr. W. H. Funderburk, in Chesterfield County, was destroyed by fire on the morning of the 3d instant. Mr. Nnrot Dees, another citizen of Ches? terfield, lost his dwelling and out-houscs from the same cause. A white boy, aged eleven, and a negro girl, aged eight years, perished in tho flames. Both fires are supposed to be the work of .aft incendiary.. . , ' A young mau thought to frighten two young ladies upon their return from a party in Sparta,. Tennessee, a few nights ago, by wrapping himself in a sheet and suddenly appearing before them on a lonely road. Oue of the ladies fainted and fell to the ground, and the other ran home, reaching there a raving maniac. JAMES RAMSAY, DEAD.-We learn that James Ramsay, son of the Clerk of the Court; who was shot on Wednesday last, at Edgeflold Court House, S. C., in n difficulty with a man by the name of Murrell, died on Sunday afternoon, at 2 o'clock. Murrell is confined in jail. Mattera aro all quiet in Edgefield. If the citizens of San Froncisco, in? stead of holding meetings and raising funds' to oppose further Chinese immi? gration, would only furnish them with passes. over the Pacific Railroad to the cotton fields of the Sontb, they would solve the difficulty in tho happiect man? ner possible to all parties concerned. On the 14th ultimo, near Blountsville, Ala., Charles Murphy was killed by Lease Turner. Mr. Champ Hensley was thrown from his horse and killed one day last week; one of his nephews was killed by unknown persons the same day; and another was thrown from bis horse and also killed. The New York Sun says: "Louis Na? poleon is beginning to sell his real estate in Paris. Ho lately sold two houses for 1,500,000 francs. It is remembered that Louis Philippe showed a similar disposi? tion to realize provions to February, 1848." A man named James Gould was suffo? cated Thursday, at New York, by pull? ing his hat so tightly over his face that he could not get it off. An inquest was held and a verdict reudcred iu accord? ance with the facts. A man named Dryden, suspected of complicity iu the murder of n family near Kingsville, Mo., about six weeks ago, was shot dead on Wednesday night, on his farm? near Kingsville, by live un? known mounted men. The laundry of the St. Nicholas Hotel, in New York, was destroyed by fire ou the morning of the 10th, and caused a great deal of excitement. An explosion in tho gas works of the hotel was the canse. Johanna Zimmerman, an iumateof the emigrant hospital in New York, pur? posely drowned herself the other day in a bath tab. A good way to got clean out of the world. In an Indian raid in Montana, recent? ly, John Peck, of Franklin, Tenn., and Allen Meorroir, of Georgia, were killed, and a young man named Patton, from Colombia, Tenn., was mortally wounded. An insano woman at Madison, Wiscon? sin, ran through the streets on Wednes? day night, denuded herself, jumped into a well and was drowned.

Sjpe>oi.Q,l INTc?ioos. WHAT XS A TONIC1-Bear this in mind that although a tonio is, to a certain extent, a stimulant-a stimulant, unmodified by any me? dicinal substances, is not a tonic, but A nr.nn.i TANT. In HOSTETTER'S STOMACU BIT TKRS, there is a stimulating element of the purest grade, manufactured in this or any other country. Eveiy fiery and corrosive oil or acid which contaminates thc ord) lary liquors of commerce, is expelled from th- rye spirit which forms the alcoholic basis ot thc BITTERS, by careful and repeated rectifica? tion. The juices of the valuable roots, barks and herbs, infused info this wholesome pro? duct of the iiuc8t grain, still further modify its nature; so that it becomes, in fact, a simple diffusive agent, minus all tho heady and brain exciting properties which belong, more or loss, to all liquors in a raw stato. lt is merely the safe and harmless vehicle which renders tho medicinal virtuos of the preparation effective-increasing their active power, and diffusing them through tho system, Hence tho pleasant and gentle glow which is experi irraoed after taking a dose of tho BITTERS. Instead of creating headache, aa unmcdicateel stimulants aro apt to do, this salubrious tonic ii tho best known remedy for that complaint. It calms and soothe cerebral excitement, strengthens tho nerves, promotes tho secre? tion of tho gastric juice, invigoratcH thc bowels, determines the Hinds to tho surface, improves tho appetite, increases the animai vigor, regulates organic action, and, from its mild yet effective alterativo qualities, is the vory beet preparation that can ho administer? ed to tho weaker sex in the peculiar diflicnltief to which their organization subjects them.
