BY JULIAN A. SELBY When the Khedives diamond present to Mrs. Fitch first reached the New York Custom House, it w as said to be worth $400,000. In a short time they told us it was worth but $300,000. Then they fell to $250,000; and so on down, until they have got as low as $70, 000. At this frightful rate of de? preciation in value it won't be a great while* we fear, before Mrs. Fitch will bo glad to sell the thing for. two dollars and a half. An elopement in Mi 11 bury, Mass., had no novel feature, but it called attention to a strangely compli? cated, family. The wife who eloped was twenty-one years old, having been married Beven years, and tho husband whom she left was sixty seven. The husband's two sons by a previous wife are married to his recreant wife's two older sisters, and her brother is the husband of her husband's daughter. Opera EC< Thursday Evening, April 22.

In fact, every .organ*.every fibre of the frame nrmpaUuzce with the debilitated and diseased stomach. What is needed in euch a oaae? Clearly, an alterative and invigorant; and among medicines of that class, Hostetter's | Stomach Bitters is, beyond all comparison or estimate, the best Mere purgatives only deprive the system of the little strength that disease has left it Salivants nave the some effect The whole internal organism has gone wrong, and can only bo put right and kept right by a medicine in which the tonic and stimulating elements pre? dominate, but are qualified and modi? fied by anti-bilious aperients and blood purifying components. Now, the truth is, (and the medical faculty as well as the Eublio know the fact,) that Hostetter's itters contain every ingredient requi? site for the cure of dyspepsia and all the ailments of body and mind which it in? volves. This has been proved in so many thousands of instances that it seems almost idle to repeat the statement The great tonic rallies exhausted na? ture, from whatever eanse enfeebled, and permanently recruits the vigor of the nerves, tho muscles and the brain. Its effect upon tho brain is to give strength to the wiU and precision to the judg? ment and'to banish despondency and that infirmity of purpose which generally acoom panics bodil v weakness.

Sonic times the pain is in the shoulder, and is mistaken for rheumatism. The stomach | is affected with loss uf appetite and sick- 1 ness, bowels in ? general costive, and I sometimes alternating with lax. The head is troubled with pain, and dull, j heavy sensation, considerable loss ol! memory, accompanied with painful sen- j Kation of having left undone something j which ought to have been done. Often ! complaining of weakness, debility and J low upirits. Sometimes many of the1 above symptoms attend the disease, and j at other times, very few of them: but the Liver is generally the organ most in? volved. i n s it*^. tSS SIMMONS' LIVER REGULATOR!

Eminent physicians commend it as the most EFFECTUAL SPECIFIC for Constipation, Headache. Pain in the Shoulders, Dizziness, Sour Stomach, bad taste in tho Month, Bilious Attacks, Palpitation of the Heart, Pain in the region of the Kidneys, Despondency, Gloom and forebodings of evil; all of which are the offspring of a diseased Liver.
