From 1 1:0 Po'ton Investigator.1
"Mf!. ;:i,:ron: Instead of offering
up-pnu-ti tf an imaginary Deity, let
our Umnka be pven to our fellow men
for tli p flood tliey may have clone uh,
and also let. us tie thankful to Nature
for furnishing- us with the inulerial for
our living.
A national holiday, appointed'!)' the
Government of a sectarian eharacter,
ig not tl-.e right kind ; it is not what
we want;. it is not proper. How can a
Government etiMnin iln merits by hucIi
appointment? Itvliaious festivities and
religious ffuts nre not in accordance
with the rcfpiirementfl of natural right
and jus. ice. Ui all. I ho matter of clos
ing all hiiMues.M housee, merely because
of some caprice of a peel, is bordering
on tlicffti of fanaticism.
There is bound to bo conic sect or
organization in n country that does
not believe in the observances of Chris
tians, and Christ ian practices. Then
wo do not kc how equal rights can be
offered to nil by appointing a day for
national thanksgiving of a religious
kind. What one class does not like,
another may idolize; and then why
would it not be far better to lot all bus
lines continue, and allow all to act, on
such a day according to their own true
belief? Thie would be an impartial
and just allowance to all, and because
a jeon did not believe in having his
bueineKK wwc to offer thanks to tomo
person be did not think existed, it
would be u common right for him to
do a bin CMiFcienee bids.
The neeestiity of a festival, or a nat
ional holiday, if it may be Called so,
EOenife pc'U'uvidcut u tile life of a pros
perous nation. Does it not release
them from the bonds of servitude to a
diBContontrd, and perhaps an unhappy
lifo? H certainly does. There is noth
ing of u Liberal character in working,
striving, toiling incessantly, from year's
end to year's end, without having an
interval of rest. The physical and
moral cluty is to be kind and forgiving
to self and our fellow-maw. Hellish
nees is sectarian and not partial.
What luek, then, have we had dur
ing the pat eventful year? is the ques
tion of humanity on a rational thanks
giving. Js 'there not one person, at
least, whom wo feel it our duty to thank
for kimiuess rendered? If there is", stop
now nnd enjoy tho gratification of
thanking him. Now is the selected
time. Do not lot tho opportunity pass,
Mr it may he the labt, and an atone
ment left to bo fulfilled is one chance
lost to gain tho end of a Liberal lifo.
The fuliillment of a promise, or the
consuinatiou of an atonement, is the
essence of true, humane religion.
Humanity j8 the basis of religion,
ami immunity ii impartial, just and for
giving. 'u, a thanksgiving to a boun
tiful and overflowing Nature for the
ood of her resources, is truly religious,
not in the general acceptation of tho
term, but in the truest souse of the
word. Yours, Ac,, B. W. IIuki'man.

As will be seen, the above commun
ication to the Investigator was written
byB.'W. Huffman, of this city. Hqis
a youth, probably not more than 18
years of age. and if tho promise given
by his ( fforis is fullillcd in tho coining
years, I 'nion county will have produced
one man to be proud of. Mr. Huff
man is a constant- contributor of both

boar the impress of a mind, vigorous,
original and peculiarly free from tho

Nervous Exhaustion.
A Few Useful Hints For
Nervous People.
"j am so nervous" is a very common ex
pression, used by both old and young: and
very few can now be found who are free
from nervous troubles. Wo regret to see
that the malady U rapidly increasing. And
from what cause? There are various reas
ons. It may be because of a low condition
of the general health; the vitility of the
nervous .system is depressed; or from a
want of perfect digestion and assiniiliation
of food, and the vitilizing power of pure,
rich blood, the nerves are not properly
htrcnthened and nourshcd,and consequent
ly become weak and diseased.
There was a time when "nervousness,''
and that class of disease known as nervous
affections, were apnarently confined to
r
2
1
lndins: but at the Tiresent dav it is an an- "V
doubted fact that as large a portion of ner
vous diseases exist among men as among
the gentler t-ex; and their distressing affects
and lasting and enervating results arc a
thousand fold more serios, as they extend
to posterity and are productive of a wcik
envd and enfeebled race. Nervous and
physical debility, causeel by
is a frequent and distressing disease, its de
pressing influence being felt alike on both
sexes and ullages. Among tho first syra-
ptons of this afl'eetion are usually a de
rangement of tho digestive organs. A feel
of languor will be experienced, and "a grad
ualfailing of strength, with general weak
ness and pain in tho back. More or less eiJ
liaustation is experienced on waking in tho
tlio mornsng. There is often a bad taste in
tlit mouth; the vision becomes dim, the
nicmoiy Is impaired, and the patient is
troubled with frequent dizziness. Persons
thus affected are often Jdespondaut. and
ruffer from gloom and deprossion of the
mind. Tlio nerves become so weakened
that the least excitement or shock brings.on
a tremor or trembling, often attondedby
palpatation ef the heart.
LADIES
Are particularly susceptible to nervous
disorders, owing partly to their more
clicato nervous organization ami partly
to their sedentary life and consequent
confinement in-doors. Such affections aro
attended by restlessness nnd nervous excite
ment, anxiety or depression of tho mind,
loss of interest in society and the daily af
fairs of life. There is also loss of sleepy
tho patient on rising In tho morning, feel
ing tired, languid and unrefre.shed. From
slight nervous attacks to hysteria, from sim
ple nervousness" to utter prostration,
there are many and varied forms of diseases
of tho nervous system none of which should
exist, and of all of which can immured by
tho use of
Dr. Partee's Reinefly
Which first stimulates thellver and kiditj-'1
to healthy action, regulates the digestiveor
gaits, and from the first dose begins its
work of purifying and building up the worn
out systom It produces t.vect and health?
sleep, enriches tho blood, and imparts to
the palo and sallow cheeks the glow j
