INCONTKOVEKTIIILE FACTS versni MERE ASSERTIONS. From tht JV. J'. Evening Ezpre. Much Interest has been evinced by thinking and Intelligent people in this country regard ing the results of the awards at the Paris Expo, sltlon. Especially has the musical portion ol the public been agitated about the decisions iu Class 10 pianos and musical Instruments in general because competition was exlrcmely close and exciting, from the fact that more than 400 pianog oi the world's most celebrated tinkers had been entered lor the contest. It was, therefore, highly gratifjing for as to know that America has been so signally triumphant in this branch of fine arts. It will be remembered that for weeks after the announcement of the awards to the successful exhibitor, a fierce newspaper war rased be tween Messw. Steinwuy and Chickering, and their respective agents, all over the country, Messr. Bteinway proviDg by the official certifi cate of the President and members of the Inter national Jury on musical instruments, that tbbt had been unanimously awarded the Fiast Of the Grand Gold Medals, distinctly classified frtt and over all competitors; while Messrs. Chickering, on their part, persistently advertised that the decoration of the Legion of Honor (which their representative in Paris only ob tained upon written application for the same from the French Government) was the highest prize at tho Exposition, even going so far as to claim that the said decoration had been rwomnwmfre. by the Jury and dc'ivered to Mr. Chickering by the Emperor Aapoleon in person, agsertious whluh turned out to be utterly erro neous. The following official letter from Mr. Fetie, Director of the Royal Conservatoire at Brus sels, Member and Official Reporter of the Jury on Musical Instruments (Class 10), at the Paris Exposition, again and finally establishes the fact that the highest prize for Pianos "tho First Grand Gold Medal" has been unanimously awarded to Messrs. Steinway A Sons by all the Juries, and that the decoration secured by Mr. Chickering Is a personal matter, outside of, ani without the slightest connection with, the offi cial awards at the Exposition.

The result 1 what is called "GkN-KRAi, nsitiLiTYj" In other words, a failure and partial collapse of the physical forces, accompanied, usually, by great depression of spirits. The beat remedy la such cues Is HOSTETTER'S STOMACH BITTERS. Whether the state of ex haustion has been brought on by excessive physical labor, dissipation, anxiety of mind, exposure, or any other cause, the remedial effector thlsgreat slomaoulo will be found equally prompt and certain. As a re storative, after severe sickness has prostrated the bodily end mental energies, it Is pronounced, by com petent medical authority, "TH8 BEST TOSIC IN TJbE." I f men were not foolishly careless about their health, and over-confident la themselves, they would always, when engaged In any work that required great exertion, use corresponding means of sustain ing their strength. For this purpese HOSTKTTER'S SITTERS are invaluable. All tollers should use them as an InTlgorant. For those constantly employed In Indoor oocupa tlons, especially In crowded workshops, they may be reckoned as the very best safeguard of health. Where there Is a predisposition to constipation, or a tendency to biliousness, they may be truly said to be a spsciflo for which there Is no substitute. Gbkat Balk or Ubhtle-ikn's Wardboiib!

Aiken, of Aiken's Junc tion. Colonel Aiken, when first discovered by tbe engineer of the train, was either In a stooping or sitting posture on the road bed, between the rails, There was an instant appli cation of the brakes, but too late, and ihe wheels of tbe engine passed directly across the fitidomen of the unfortunate man, mutilating tiie liame in a shocking manner. There have been intimations made in and about the scene of the terrible occurrence that Colonel Aiken was murdered, and afterwards thus placed upon the track. It is known that Ihe deceased had Just turned out a horse, and whs returning to his homo when he was killed. Tho engineer believes that he observed, at a point some feet from whvre tho body was struck, a pool of blood, looking hb though it had dripped fnm tbe remains. There is great leeliug iu the vicluity of the affair, aud I learn that a tho rough investigation, is to be had at, once. Speaker Colfax on tbe Political Situation.
