Causeless Depression.?This expres? sion is often used, but is manifestly absurd. Gloom and melancholy are not spontaneous. They are unnatural men? tal conditions and usually have corres? ponding causes. If there is no apparent reason for despondency, it is a symptom of physical disease. In nine cases out of ten, the stomach, the liver and the bowels aro responsible for the cloud which rest upon the brain. In all snch cases immediate and permanent relief may be obtained by the use of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. If the digestive orgiUis are weak an invigorant is necessary; if the liver is disordered an alterative is required; if the bowels are constipated or irregular a gentle aperient is needed. In that famous vegetable remedy these three medicinal properties ore commin? gled with several others of n scarcely less important character, and hence it speed? ily cures every species of hypoaondria arising from material causes, by remov? ing the cause themselves. In the summer, when disorders of tho stomach and bowels, bilious complaints and all diseases which affect assimilating and secretive organs aro especially pre? valent, tho importance of having this invaluable tonic, alterative and correct? ive in every dwelling, and within tho roach of all who travel by land or water, cannot be over-estimated. As it is a staple article throughout the country, it would bo next to impossible to find n settlement, near or remote, unprovided with a stock of this famous vegetable restorative. Juno 11 f31ll Oov. CHAlfBERLAXN ANIi THE W. L. I ? The folio wing correspondence has passed j between Go v. Chamberlain and Hon. W. D. Porter, relative to the flag furnished by the Governor for presentation at the Boston Centennial: Coh mdia, June 9, 187-5. Hon. W. D. Porter, Charleston, & C? My Dear Sir: The Washington Light Infantry of Charleston are about to leave your city to take part in the celebration of tho contennial anniversary of the battlo of Bunker Hill. I have procured a dag with the emblems and legends of our State emblazoned thereon, which I wish placed in thoir hands, to bo borno by them on the patriotic mission which calls them from tho State. I am unable in person to perform tho duty of pre? senting the nag, but 1 am more than compensated for this disappointment by tho sincere pleasure I feel in asking you to represent me in this respeot. iour association with the Washington Light Infantry as a post commander, your identification with all that interests your city and our State, and tho mre felicity of speeoh by which you are always en? abled to touch the hearts of those who love South Carolina, and my personal knowledge of your character, have com? bined to indicate and approve my se? lection. I wish that this flag may be received by the Washington Light Infantry as a proof of my personal and official interest in their organization, and especially in tho purposes and feelings which inspire their present visit to Massachusetts. I wish that its presence at Bunker Hill may signify the sincere veneration in which the people of South Carolina hold all who bora a part in founding the Ame? rican nation. I wish that it may call to mind, wherever it may be seen, the early patriotism which gave to America and the world the examples and memories of Eutaw and Bunker Hill, of Lexington and King's Mountain, and the hundred other battle-fields where South Carolina and Massachusetts, the North and the South, mingled their best blood. If that early patriotism, if those costly sacri? fices, ore to have full fruition, it will be when the North and the South shall again be.united by the indissoluble bond of their love of country. If recent bitter estrangements aro to be succeeded by tho sweet rewards of peace, it will be when, by the common efforts of the North and the South, a free and just Na? tional Government shall command the lovo and honor of all sections und States. To hasten such results, is tho function of those memorial observances in which the Washington Light Infantry and this flag of South Carolina will bear a sign i li - cant and honorable part. I beg you to entrust this flag to the keeping of your comrades of the Washington Light In? fantry, with such expressions of patriotic sympathy as the occasion may suggest. I May heaven prosper and protect them while absent, and may the Bunker Hill of to-day bo to them and to us all a spot sacred, from henoeforth, to national peace and fraternity. With sentiments of highest regard, your friend and serv? ant, Di H. CHAMBERLAIN, Governor of South Carolina. Charleston, June 11, 1875. To His Excellency Governor D. II. Cham? berlain?Dear Sir: I am in receipt of your letter of 9th June. I will under? take with pleasure the duty assigned me of delivering, in your name, to the W. L. I. the flag, so truly and tastefully em? blematic of South Carolina, which you wish them to bear on their patriotic mis? sion to the centennial celebration at Bunker Hill. So thoughtful and oppor? tune a compliment will tie most grate? fully appreciated by them. Permit me to express my cordial concurrence in the sentiments so happily expressed by you. It seems to me as if there was something providential in the occur? rence of these centennial celebrations so soon after onr recent estrangement. If there be a common ground on which the people of the North and South can meet and look each other in the eyes, and strike hands and renew their pledges of fidelity to liberty and union, without disparagement or loss of self-respect on either side, it is upon the grounds, the holy places, where their forefathers laid the foundations of independence, and then cemented them with their precious blood. The memories there kindled will, by a sort of moral telegraphy, flash from the first altars of liberty raised in the North to tho first altars in the South, and thence diffuse themselves, as electric t tires, through 40,000,01)0 of hearts that [ throb in sympathizing patriotism* over I this mighty continent. This is tho way of all ways to "bridge over tho chasm." In furtherance of this blessed work, let me express the hope that on 28th June, 1870. when South Carolina in her turn celebrates the victory at Fort Monltrie, "the bright morning Htar and harbinger j of American independence,"- Massachu? setts and all of the Old Thirteen will be I there to take their place in the picture. I remsin, with the highest consideration, vour most obedient servant, W. I>. PORTER. I Mrs. And. McMeckirr, of this County, j died last week, at an extreme old age. We are informed that her husband, who survives her, and herself lived in wed? lock sixty-one years. Mr. McMeekin is the solo surviving niembor of Capt. Kincaid's Company which volunteered from Fair tie Id in the war of 1812. [Winnsboro Xvws.
