d March 1, M ;
And whureaa, Tho Constitution of this State inhib
its the granting or loaning of (bo credit of tho state

qual amount luvostcd by private person# ;
And whcrcaa, also, The Act cntitlod “An Act to

18C9, gave power to the Governor, In behalf of the
State, to endorso the guaranty of tho 8tato on the

each of five consecutive miles, commencing at Car-
tcravllle, had beeu completed and put iu runuing
order, aud then only to the extent of twelve thou
sand five hundred dollars per mile of the sections

And whereas, It appears from reliehio informa
tion received by me, that at tho timo tho guaranty

And whereas, The Mid indorsements of guareut
made on the Mid bond# on aforesaid were made with
out authority of law, and oro In no wiM the act or

opinion, no good and sufiiciant reason for allowing

Hon. Benjamin Conley:
Now, therefore, I, James M. 8mitii, Oovernorof

All iub Yeah Round,

air, the soil aud the water, iu a greater or 1cm de
gree, aud, thereforo, the Great Vegetable Antidote to
these invisible enemies of health, Hostetler's Htoni -
aclt Bitters, ta iuvaluahlo as a household medicine at
all seasons and in eviry latitude. At no period of
the year ia a regulating and corroctive nuillcine
more needed than toward the close of winter, whan
the sun and rain are beginning to break up the win
ter blocksdo, aud from tho softening anil arises tbat
terrible miasma, which weighs like an incubua upon
the vital machinery, and depresses th* animal spir
ts. It Is then that the seeds of intermittent and
remittent fevers, of rheumatism and rheumatic
gout, of ohktinate ttomach complaint* of disorders
of the liver and bowels, aud a whol* boat of pulmo
nary and nervous complaints are so vn.
The. best, tho aurcat way to prevent this disas
trous aoedin-i Is to invigorate auJ refresh th* sys
tem with a course of the Bitters. If this precaution
be taken uow, there will be no danger of the mias
matic genua taking root in tin fluids end tissue* of
Uio body, and bringing forth terrible fruit in the
spring. Now ia the time for prevention. Remember
that vigor is the only mtfeguard against the virus of
disease, and that Hostetler's BItU r# i* tho purest,
the safest, the most powerful and perfect invigorant
ever administered, cither aa protective medicine or
a remedy. A change of acason approaches which
almost always prove* more or leas disastrous to p< r-
eona of a weak, nervous organization. Brace up at
one* with the leading TolIc of the age. Purge from
the blood all morbid matter, strengthen the nerves,
