Wrston is a beautiful little town, of about twelve hundred Inhabitants, laying on the west fork of'the Monogahela riv er, about 23 miles south east of Clarks tog.West Virginia. They have located temk State Lunatic Asylum.

I was conducted all through the building by the courteous, and very gentlemanly Su perintendent. Dr. Tbns.

Jackson, and as sistant matron Mrs. Moore, and assistant physician Dr. Kuntz, who are eminent ly qualified for all the duties connected with such an institution. There is such perfect neatness and cleanliness, with com complete order, that yon would almost imagine yourself in the private house of swell regulated family rather than among ■tsane persons. There are about 280 un i rtnnate persons now in the institution, a ew more males than females, any of *bom, in their lucid moments, are per mitted to attend religious service in the oipei each Sunday, where religious ser ies are conducted by all denominations, -ternatelv. - ' I *as surprised to see the order and at ■?iMon they paid to the services last JoDtiay. xbe Doctor's lady presided-at ■Jtorgan, who is also a beautiful singer, by Mis?

Nominating Systems.—And] tow the Republicans of Beaver county have become dissatisfied with the Crawford county system of making nominations. They are about submitting a proposition requiring a majority of all the votes cast to Dominate, and in case no candidate receives such majority, then the nomina tion be made by the County Convention. The Crawford' system looks fair, bat wherever it has been tried it has occasion ed dissatisfaction, and is everywhere be ing abandoned. The great defect is that members of the opposite party, or those who have no intention of supporting the nominations, step in @ aod control them. Tb? Delaware county practice, gradually perfected by citizens of the several dis tricts anxious for fair play, is the very best way we know of, and other counties can imitate it with good results. Here the Republicans bold delegate elections on the day previous to the nom inating convention. Regular officers are chosen, a poll kept open at the regular place in each district between the hours of one and eight in the afternoon, and votes by ballot received only from those who are members of the party, or who intend to support the ticket. The tickets used are printed or blank, so that the voters can select and write in any candi date. At the close of the election a full count is made, and the full result set out by the election officers in their duplicate certificates of election given to the dele gates. These take the‘n? certificates to the convention, return one to the proper officers of that body, and keep the other as a guide for action during the nominat ing ballots. If A has the most votes for Sheriff in a given district, the delegates therefrom in honor adhere to him so long as bis name is before the conven tion . ' If he is drop ped, the candidate receiv ing the next highest in said district is next voted for so long as he is before the convention, and so on to the end. . Most of our districts have gradually fallen into this practice—which fs the fairest fur all parties; and where honestly adhered to, it better reflects the wishes of the majority of the party in the?comity than any plan yet devised. It leaves no. room for trad ing on nominating: day, and as a role permits a fair reflection of the sentiments ■i' : i ,iI ' ■ of each and every district. The system as practiced here , has some minor defects ‘which will doubtless be corrected in time. We have no proper regulations for drop* ping candidates, and no fixed rule guard ing against violations Of instructions. These arenow left id the action of the convention at the time, and haste or ex citement may at times result in iojustie’S." Candidates are now. dropped on motion, and the:only remedy for a violation of instructions Js an ; appeal to the con vention. Heretofore, in a few' notable instances, InstructionahaVe been violated, but recently the delegations have checked * any such tendency by prompt: Reminders as to duty and bycopies of their returns. Where mistakes are made, this opens a door for theif C;immediate correction ; but if a wrong vote were to be persisted ip: at this late day, it would very likely leadlto , the expulsion of the man casting it. The Delaware county plan as a whole, is, how ever, better than any we know of, andj in late years Las promoted fair play and given the majority the right to'say who shall be on ticket—just as it should.

Even yet, in spite of the teachings of centuries of experience, sdme physicians believe in depleting their pa tents, already seriously exhausted by sickness, with powerful evacuants, emetics, saiivants,. cautharidal plasters, or the. lancet. But, provi dentially, public Intelligence is ahead of these medical fossils, who belong, of right, to the era of the Crusades! That powerful ally of nature in its warfare with the causes of sickness, Hostetler’s Stomach Bitters, has opened the eyes of the masses to the paramount importance of increasing the vital strength of the body when menaced by disease. They understand that when the atmos pheric conditions are adverse to health, it is wise to reinforce the system with a wholesome tonic and stimulant, and thus enable it to combat and repel the depressing influence of an inclement temperature. If the constitutional and animal powers were always thus recruited in the pres ence of danger, the mortality from consumption, bronchitis, chronic rheumatism,
