A BROKEN DOWN SYSTEM.There is a disease to which the doctors give many
names, but whiib Jew of them understand. It itsimply weakness.a# breakipg down of the vitalforces. Whatever' its can***, (and they are innu¬merable.) its symptoms are in the main the same.
Among the most prominent are extreme lassitude,lose of appetite, loss of flesh, and great mental de-pre*eicn. Indigestion and a Stomaeh Couth arealso frequently concomitants of this distressingstate ofbody and of mind. The common remark inrelation to persons 111 snch a condition is, that theyare consumptive. Now, what these unfortunatesreally want is vigor, vital strength; and as certainlyas dawn succeeds darkness they can recuperatetheir systems and regain perfect health by resort¬ing to HOSTETTER'S C ELEBRATED STOMACHBITTERS. It is as clear that a life-revivingTonic is required in such cases,M that the dyingflame of an empty lamp requires to be revived witha new supply of oil. Perfectly pure and innocuous,containing nothing but the most gt-ni.il vegetableextracts, and combining the throe grand elementsof a stomachic, an alterative, and a genial invigor-ant. HOSTFTTER'S BITTERS are suitable toall constitutions, and are as applicable to the dis¬eases and disabilities of the feebler sex as to thoseofmen. jy 1 2w
" The perfumed lightSteals through the nam of alabaster lamps,And every air is heavy icith the trunkOf orange flowers thai bloom1' the midst of roses."
Such was the flowery land filled with healing airearid life-preserving products where Dr. Drake dis¬covered the chief ingredients of his wonderful TonicMedicine-PLANTATION BITTERS-the en¬chanted tropical island of St. Croix. The PLAN¬TATION BITTERS, combining all tho medicinaland tonic virtues of the healing and life-sustainingproducts of that favored clime, are, without doubt,the World's Great Remedy for Dyspepsia, LowSpirits, and all other Stomachic difficulties. jy]-]w

He en¬courages the measure, on the ground that Pres¬ident Juarez is "lighting our battles," that theneutrality ot the United States Government isa recognition of Maximilian, and that the con¬duct of Napoleon in Mexico is a fraud uponEngland and Spain, and 4 violation of the trip¬artite convention of those Powers with Franceill 1£61. ? t.*/.'

Fixakcial..The New York stock marketyesterday continued to exhibit a strong specu-lati ve movement. Some of the leading brokersare buying largely of both railroad and mis¬cellaneous stocks, a movement for which theease of the money market affords abundantfacilities. There is no "bear" party to checkthe movement, and the prices consequently gosteadily upward.Governments continue very firm. Large
orders on European account for Five-twentieswere executed at advanced prices. Sixes of1881 were V higher; Five-twenties, old issue,X> and ditto, new issne' jf. Ten-forties rose V.State stocks were firmer and more in de¬
mand. North Carolina Sixes closed ai 75;Missouri sixes 73#, and Virginia sixes, OS)#.Money was in more active dnmand, aad
though the rates were still quoted at 4a.? percent., yet the amount of transactions at thehigher figure is increasing. f jGold was without material change, and the

Relics of the Rebellion.A correspondent lrcm Fortress Monroe
writes:Strong efTorts are now being made to raiso
the wreck of the ill-lated frigate Congress,sunk bj* the Merrimac March 8. 1861. The"diver" firm of Underwood & Co., have beenat work for some time. They have raised upout of the wreck thirty-two "guns and a larg*»quantity of furniture. They now expect toraise what is left of the hull. To this end theyhave built a water-tight enclosure around thewreck and have a steam pump at work forcingthe water out of the water-tight compartment.They expect the wreck to float as the waterrecedes from her. They are sanguine of bring¬ing to the surface all that remains of the gal¬lant old ship. The diver enclosed in sub¬marine ai inc.* who goes down into the depthsoccasionally to see how the work goes on, as¬sures us that the hull will soon liuat, and that:it will bring to the surface a fabulous numberof bushels of oysters, whic h have settled andmultiplied ir. the hull of the good old shipduring her four years' submersion.This same sub-aqueous association tried their
experienced skill on the submerged wreck o£the Cumberland, but could accomplish nothingtowards raising her. The Cumberland was inthe channel when she was sunk, and thestrong current passing over and around herfilled her with sand. Vessels pass over herwatery grave,The pirate craft Florida lies not far from the
remains of the two historic United States ships.The Florida's position is marked by her main¬mast, the top of which is twelve feet above thosurface of the water. When she sank, the topof her three masts and upper yards remainedabove water; she has settled lower in the bed.of the river since then, and the "relic hunters'-"have carried away many feet of yards andmasts.
