Tha committee find but ono 'competitor on
exhibition, George Sharp, Jr., of Atlanta.
They are informed that for the special pre
miam offered in this department there were
others entered, but have been unable to dis
cover their goods. They have after a careful
examination of tho Watches, Jewelry and Sil
verware, be«n impressed with tho conviction
that the exhibition made by George Sharp,
Jr., is of the highest ordor.
For beauty of finish, purity of metal, and
quality of precious stones, they have never
seen the display surpassed, aud in our opin
ion, considering the quantity as. well as the
quality of these goods, the exhibition has not
been surpassed, iu our experience, at any Fair
wo have attended in the United. States. We
would reccommend a gold medal to bo awar
ded by the Society to Mr. Sharp, for the best
on the kind of work at the Paris Exposition of

To tile Martyrs of Liver Complaint.
Among tho wonderful medical properties which have
rendered Hostctter’s Stomach Bitten pro-eminent
lunong too health-restoring preparations of the age.
its anti-bilious virtues are not tho least remarkable.—
No words can do justice to its marvelous effect upon
the diseased liver. Perhaps tho simple words of a
convalescent sufferer, who describes it as “going right
to tho spot,” tell the story aa clearly as may b^ It
does go right to the spot. It -operates directly upon
the disordered organ, and whether unduly active or in
a stato of paralysis, restores it to a condition of health.
The sickness at the stomach, pain between tho shoul
ders and in the right side, yellow suffusion of the akin,
costiveness, drowsiness and languor, dimness of sight, '
colic, palpitation of the heart, dry cough, low fever,
and other symptoms which indicate the various pha
ses of acute and chronic liver complaint, are ono and
all promptly relieved, and finally removed, by the ac-
txon oi tiusnuuuuvpzcpanAaou, wlaiteRia at once tho
beat of correctives, the gentlest and most genial of
aperients, an infallible regulator, and a powerful re
storative. Persons of a bilious habit, who use the bittera
as a protective medicine, will never suffer the pains
and penalties of liver disease or bilious remittent fe-
