Violent Speech of Wendell Phillips
VIEWS OF AN ABOLITIONIST ON THE HARPER’S
FERRY INSURRECTION.
Wendell Phillips, of Boston, delivered a
lecture in Brooklyn on the evening of Nov.
Ist, in which he argued that John Brown
was the only American who had acted bold
ly up to the true American idea and cast
aside also these false and fatal wrappings of
an effete conservatism, and refused to regard
auvthing as government, or any statute as
law, except those which conformed to his
own sense of justice and o i right. Virginia
was not a state. Mr. Wise was not a gov
ernor. The Union was not a nation. All
these so-called governments were organized
piracies, and John Brown was to-day the
only real and true government on the soil of
Virginia, and bad an infinitely better right
to hang Gov. Wise than Wise had to hang
him.
He also said : “I think you can make a
better use ot iron than forging it into chains;
if you must have the metal, put it into
Sharpe’s rifles. It is a great deal better
used that way than in fetters—a great deal
better than a great clumsy statue of a false
great man for men to kneel down and wor
i ship in a State House yard.”
Tom Corwin, of Ohio, was present on the
platform, and being called upon for a speech
said he was there merely by accident, and
begged to be allowed to reflect on what he
had heard before giving his vole upon the
matter.
A Just Compliment - and a True
Prophecy.
The Boston Post has the following rela
tive to the Hon. C. C. Andrews :
We are happy to learn that our friend, C. C.
Andrews, Esq., lately of Boston, has been elect
ed to the Senate of Minnesota by 170 majority,
from the St. Cloud district. He is a gentleman
worthy of the honor, in every respect, and is
destined to fill a conspicuous position in the
luture history of the West.

PROCLAMATION
BY THE
GOVERNOR.
THANKBGIVIN Gr.
It is proper and becoming that a Christian People
should unite in public demonstrations of gratitude to
Almighty God at stated seasons, and huinbly invoke a
continuance of His kind protection. The citizens of this
State, in commoa wtth those of other States of the Union,
have many reasons for observing that honored custom.
During the past year.
He has preserved us from the visitations of pestilence.
He has caused the earth to yield an abundant harvest
He has continued to us the possession of civil and re
ligious liberty, and the security of law.
He has averted from the nation of which we form a
part, the evils of Internal d ssenslon, and of foreign war.
For thest and countless other blessings vouchsafed us,
we should b 3 profoundly thankful. Let us then enter
“ into His gates with ’hanksgiving, and into His courts
with praise,” and bow the knee in grateful acknowledg
ment of bis mercies.
I, HENRY H. SIBLEY, Governor of the State of Min
nesota, do hereby designate and appoint THURSDAY
the 24th day of NOVEMBER next, as a DAY OF PUB
LIC THANKSGIVING, and I earnestly recommend to
the People of this State that they abstain from their secu
lar employments oa that day, and repair to their respect
ive places of worship, to participate in the religious ex
ercises appropriate to the occasion.
No business will be ti ansae ted on that day in any o
the Departments of the State Government.
In testimony whereof, I have hereunto set my hand, and
caused the Great Seal of the State to be affixed
L. 8. at St. Paul, the Capital thereof, the twenty
seventh day of October, in the year One thou

HOSTETTEK’S stomach
BITTERS.
In view ol the fact that every member of the human
family is more er less subjected to some complaint, be
sides Innumerable other conditions in life, which, by the
assistance of a little knowledge or exercise of a ,mmon
sense, they may be able so to regulate their habits of
diet, and with the assistance of a good tonic secure per
manent health. In order to accomplish this desired ob
ject, the true course to pursue is certainly tha- which
will produce a natural state of things at the least hazard
of vital strength and life ; for this end Dr. HoMetter has
introduced to this country a preparation bearing his
name, which at this day is not a new medicine, but one
that has been tried fur years, giving satisfaction to all
who have used it, The Bitters operate powerfully upon
the stomach, bowels and liver restoring them to a
healthy ami vigorous action, and thus oy the simple pro
cess of strengthening nature, enables the system to
triumph over disease.
For the cure of Dyspppsia, Indigestion. Nausea, Fla
tulency, Loss of Appetite, or any Bilio-s Complaints,
arising tro~i a morbid inaction of the stomach o- Bowes,
producing Cramps Colic, Cholera Morbus, Ac., these
bitter- have no equal.
Diarrhoia, dysentery or flux, so generally contracted
by new settlers, and eaused principally by the change
of water and diet, will be speedily regulated bv a brief
use of this preparation. Dyspepsia, a disease proba
ble more prevalent, when taken in all its various forms
than any other, the cause of which may alw.ys be at
tributed to derangements of the digestive organs, can be
cured with iut fall by using Hostetler’s stomach Hitters,
per directions on the bottle. For this disease every i hy
sician will recommend bitters of some kind, then why
not use au article known lobe intallible r Every coun
try has their Bitters as a preventive of disease ai.d
strengthening of the system in general, and among t em
all there is not to be found a more healthy people than
the Germans, from whom this preparation emanated,
based upon scientific experiments which has attended to
advance the destiny of this great preptration in the me
dical scale of science.

tion, the ctnplaint is thus removed as speedily as' is con
sistent with the production of a thorough aud permanent
cure.
For Persons in advanced years, who are suffering
from au enfeebled constitution and infirm body, these
Bitters are invaluable as a restorative of strength and
vigor, and needs only to be tried to be appreciated. And
to a mother while nursing, these Bitters are indispensa
ble, especially where the mother’s nourishment is made
quate to the demands of the child, consequently her
strength must yield, and here it is where a good tonic,
such as Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters, is needed to impart
temporary strength and vigor to the system. Ladies
should by all means try this remedy for all rases of de
bility, aud before so doing, ask your physician, who, if
he id acquainted with the virtue of the Biuers, w ill re
commend their use iu all cases of weakness.
CAUTION—We caution the public against using any
of the many imitations or counterfeits, but ask lor lies

words, “ Dr. J. llostetter’B Stomach Bitters,” blown on
the side of the bottle, and stamped on the metallic cap
covering the cork, and observe that our autograph sig
nature is on the label.
