THE following is an extract from a private
Letter written by the Proprietors of the Plan
tation Bitlera :
"We had no conception of the wide-spread
suffering which exists, or of tbe almost in
fallible cures produced by the Plantation Bit
ters, when we first commenced offering tbera
for sale. We now find tbat every bouse ban
a weak child, an ailing parent, or debilitated
aged member, who needs this Tome. Our
Laboratory has grown from a single room to
sn immense building, and our sales from a
few bottles to many hundred dozen per day,
and we are glad to know that they have done
you so much good.
Oca RAILROAD OXCE MORE. —A survey and
location of tbe railroad from Mt. Dallas to
Bedford will be made as soon as tbe weather
will permit. Upon this survey, estimates of
the cost will be made, and it is confidently
believed tbat tbe requisite amount of money
to build the road can be promptly raised.
Our citizens will be called upon for their con
tributions toward the work at an early day,
when we hope they will come up to the work
in a liberal, business like style. There is no
longer any question about the building of tbe
road if our people will do anything at ail
reasonable in the way of subscribing toward,
and assisting in the work.
DOST forget that the Inquirer Book Store
is tbe place to buy school books, pens, inks,
ttatiouery Ac.
KCMBI.E FCMACE at Riddlesburg is to be
enlarged the present season, by tbe addition
of another stack, that doubling it# capacity
and increasing its production from 160 tons
of iron per week to 300 tons and upward.
Workmen are already engaged in digging the
foundations for ths boiler bouse and stack,
and in getting out the stone. We under
! stand the Kemble Company also intend erect
ing a number of new houses for tbe accom
'■ raodation of the employes of the Furnace. A
fact has already been demonstrated by this
furnace, which will hare a most important
bearing on the iron interest of Bedford Coun
ty. Iron is now manufactured there about
ten dollars per ton cheaper than almost any
where else in the State, and tbe improvements
now making will enable them to make it still
cheaper. This fact of itself, wben it once be
comes generally kuown will give Bedford
County the preference over any other iron
manufacturing district in tbe state. Investi
gation has led to the belief that as soon as
the railroad is completed to Bedford, that on
account of the proximity of ore and limestone
and other advantages in the immediate vicini
ty of tbe town, iron can be still more cheaply
manufactured here.
FIBS —On Thursday morning last between
the hours of eleven and twelve, the Carpen
ter shoo of Messrs. John Davidson A Win.
L. Horn, situated in the western part of
town was entirely destroyed by fire. The
loss is estimated at fifteen hundred dollars,
consisting of . tbe building and all of Mr.
Davidson's tools, together with a lot of sash,
doors, moulding and other worked lumber.
The fire originated in the tipper part of tbe
building from the chimney, and as all the
bands were away, it bad gained great head
way before the neighbors discovered it. We
have not had a fire in Bedford for so long,
that when the alarm was given (which was a
very tame one) every body ran to see tbe
fire before the engine and hose were thought
of; in consequence, the building was nearly
consumed before anything was done. Mr.
Davidson's residence was saved through the
gentlemen who managed the water affairs at
the spring house.

and daily papers can be bad at tbe Inquirer

THE microscope shows tbe color of the hair
due to a deposition of pigment in its sub
stance. When the hair gland* become en
feebled, this pigment fails. One after another
tbe hairs become white, or fall out, producing
baldness. Baldness ia easy to prevent but
batd to care. Ayer's Hair Vigor stops it:
even restores tbe hair sometimes: always
restores its color. Immediate renovation is
at once risible : softness, freshness and the
gloss of youth. This great ornament Rbould
be preserved since it can be by Ayer's Hair
Vigor, which is beautifully clean and free
from anything injurious to the hair.—Tribune.

The Season and its Dangers.
The human body is chiefly composed of
tissues and fibres as sensitive to every change
in the coodition of the atmosphere as the most
delicate electrometer, or the quicksilver in a
barometer tube.
The stomach, the alio, the nerves, the
longs, and tbe excretory organs are especially
liable to be aflVcted by these variations, and
tbe best defence against their disastrous
tendency is to keep the digestive machinery,
which feeds and nourishes the whole system,
in good woiking order.
If the stomach ia weak or disordered neith
er the blood nor the bile can be in a healthy
state, and upon the fitness of these two im
portant fluids for the offices assigned to them
by nature, and the regularity of their flow,
health in a great measure u-pends.
When tbe air is heavily laden with chilling
vapors, as it often it at this season of the
year, the digestion should be an object ot pe
culiar care. If it ia weak and languid, the
whole physical structure will be enervated.
If it is vigorous, the entire organizaiion will
be strong to resist the untoward and depres
sing influence of a damp and vitiated atmos
phere.
A pure and powerful tonic is therefore es
pecially needed as a safeguard agaiDst the dis
eases most common in the spring, and Hos
teller's Stomach Bitters being the most whole
some and potent medicine of tbe class at pres
ent known, a course of it is particularly ad
visable at this period of the year. Tbe
stomach will thereby be toned and strength
ened, the liver and bowels regulated, the
nervous system braced up, and nature put in
a state of active defence against the miasma
which superinduces intermittent and remit
tent fevers, rheumatisms, nervous debility,
headache, hypochondria and other complainta
which are apt to assail tbe untoned and uo
fortified organizations. The body is strength
ened without exciting tbe brain, and con
sequently no unpleasaut reaction follows its
reviving and renovating operation. lmarlm

chili*, A*thma, and Con*umption.
Probobly never before in the whole history of
medicine, has anything won so widely and so
deeply upon the confidence of mankind, as this
excellent remedy for pulmonary complaints.
Through a long series of years, snd among most
of the races of men it has risen higher and high
er in their estimation, as it has become better
known. Its uniform character and powertocure
the various affections of the lungs and throat,
bare made it known as a reliable protector against
them. While adapted to milder forms of disease
and to young children, it is at tha same time the
most effectual remedy that can be given fur inci
pient consumption, and the dangerous affections
of the throat and lungs. Asa provision against
sudden attacks of Croup, it should be kept on
band in every family, and indeed as all are some
times subject to colds and Coughs, all should be
provided with this antidote for them.
Although settled Consumption is thought in
curable, still great numbers of cases where tho
disease seemed settled, have been completely
cured, and the patient restored to sound health
by the Cherry Pectoral. So complete is its mas
tery over the disorders of the Lungs and Throat,
that the most obstinate of them yield to it. When
nothing else could reach them, under the Cherry
Pectoral they subside and disappear.
Singers and Public Speakers find great protec
tion from it.
Asthma is always relieved and often wholly
cured by it.
Bronchitis is geuerally cured by taking the
Cheiry Pectoral in small and frequent doses.
Bo g nerally are its virtues known that we need
not publish t'be certificates of them here, or do
more than assure the public that its qualities are
fully maintained.
AYER'S AGUE CURE.
For Fever and Ague, Intermittent Fever, Chill
Fever, Remittent Fever, Dumb Ague, Period
it ala- liilion* Fever, Ac., and indeed
all the affection * which ariee from
malariove, march, or miaematic
pot ton*.
As it name implies, it does CCR.E, and does not
fail. Containing neither Arsenic, Quinine, Bis
muth. Zinc, nor any other mineral or poisonous
substance whatever, it in nowise injures any pa
tient The number and importance of its cures
in the ague districts, are literally beyond account,
and we believe without a parallel in the history
of Ague medicine. Our pride is gratified by the
acknowledgments we receive cf the radical cures
effected in obstinate cases, and where other reme
dies had wholly failed.
Vnacclimated persons, either resident in, or
travelling through miasmatic localities, will be
protee'ed by taking the Ague Cure daily.
For Liver Complaints, arising from torpidity of
the Liver, it is an excellent remedy, stimulating
the Liver into healthy activity.
For Bilious Disorders and Liver Complaints, it
it an excellent remedy, producing many truly re
markable cures, where other medicines had failed.

QROVIR4 BAKER'S "
SEWING MACHINES.
The following are selected from thousand!
of testimonials of similar character, as ex
pressing the reasons for the preference for
the Qaovga A BARER Machines over all
others.
* * "I like the Grover A Baker Machine,
in the first plane, because, if I had any other
I should still want a Grover A Baker; and,
having a Grover A Baker, it answers the pur
pose of all the rest. It does a greater variety
of work and it i* easier to learn than any oth
er." — Mrs J. C. Creity (Jenny June.)
* * "I have had several year*' experi
ence with a Grover A Baker Machine, which
has given me great satisfaction. I think the
Grover A Baker Machine is more easily man
aged, and less liable to get out of order. I
prefer the Grover A Baker, decidedly."—
Mr*. Dr. Watt*, New York.
* * "I have had one in my family for
some two years; and from what I know of its
workings, and from the testimony of many of
my friends who use the same, I can hardly
„ee how anything could be more complete or
give better satisfaction."— Jfr*. Gen. Grant.
* * "I believe it to be the best, all things
considered, of any that I have known. It is
very simple and easily learned; the sewing
from the ordinary spools is a great advan
tage, the stick it entirely reliable; it does or
namental work beautifully; it is not liable to
get out of order."— Mrs. A. M. Spooner, 36
Bond Street, Brooklyn.
* * "I am acquainted with the work of
the principal machines; and I prefer the Gro
ver 4 Baker to them all, because I consider
the stitch more elastic. I have work now in
the bouse which wag done nine years ago,
which is still good."— Mr*. Dr. McCready,
No. 43 East 23 d itreet, New York.
* * "More than two thirds of all the
sewing done in my family for the last two
rears has been done by Grover A Baker's
Machine, and I never had a garment rip or
need mending, except those rents which
frolicsome bojg will make in whole cloth. It
is in my opinion hy far the most valuable of
any I have tried."— Mrs. Henry Ward
Beecher.
* * "The Grover A Baker Sewing Ma
chine has rendered in every respect the most
perfect satisfaction. It combines so many
advantages with beauty of execution and
economy in price that it is a necessity in ev
ery household." — Mr*. Governor Geary, Har
risburgh, Pa.
* * "I have had the Grover A Baker
Machine for ten or twelve years in constant
use in my house. I have seen and known
every kind of family tewing, both personal
and household, accomplished upon the Gro
ver 4 Baker Machine to the entire satisfac
tion of all who were concerned."— Rev. Ste
phen 11. Tyng.
* * "I find the Grover A Baker stitch
will wear as long as the garments do—out
wear the garment, in fact. The stitch will
not break on bias seams, when stretched, as
others do: and neither does it draw the work."
Mr*. Dr. Whiting, 4 East Hth street, New
York.
* * "We have a Grover A Baker Sewing
Machine for seven years in constant use,
'hemming, felling, tucking, and everything
that the fingerj can do. It is preferred over
all others on account of its durability of work,
elasticity and strength of stitch, ease of move
ment, and simplicity of construction."— Mrs.
General Buel.
* * "There coald be no greater com
fort in a family than a Grover 4 Baker Sew
ing Machine. I have used one for the las
nine or ten years, and I think it is decidedl]
the best family Sewing Machine." Mrs.Altct
R. Whipple, wife of Rev. Dr. Whipple, See.
Am. Miss. Association.
* * "I have had an opportunity of ex
aminine and using other varieties of machines;
but I very much prefer the Grover 4 Bakei
stitch, for strength, elasticity, and beauty. 1
have seen no other machine so simple in its
construction, so easily understood and kept
in order."—Mrs. E. D. Sanborn, St. Louis.

FI 3 K & HAT C H ,
BANKERS AND DEALERS IN GOVERN
MENT SECURITIES,
No. 6 NAII.TR SNRF.BT, NIW-YORK,
February 15th, 18T0.
The remarkable success which attended oar
negotiation of the Loaoe of the CXNTRZL PACIFIC
RAILROAD COMPART and the WESTERN PACIFIC
RAILROAD COMPANT, and the popularity and cred
it which theae Loane hare maintained in the
markete, both in this country and Europe, hare
ehown that the Firet Mortgage Bonds of wisely
located and honorably-managed Railroads arc
promptly recognised and readily taken aa the
moat suitable, safe, and advantageous form of
investment, yielding a more liberal income than
can hereafter be derived from Government Bonds,
and available to take their place.
Assured that, in the selection and negotiation
of superior Railroad Loans, we are meeting a
great pnblic want, and rendering a valuable aer
vice—both to the holders of Capital and to those
great National works of internal improvement
whose intrinsic merit and substantial character
entitle them to the use of Capital and the confi
dence of investors—we now offer with special con
dence and satisfaction the
FIRST MORTGAGE BONDS
or THE
Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad Company.
The Chesapeake an'' Ohio Railroad, connecting
the Atlantic coast and the magnificent harbors
of the Chesapeake Bay with the Ohio River at a
point of reliable navigation, and thus, with the
entire Railroa system and water transportation
of the great West and Southwest, FORMS THE
ADDITIONAL EAST AND WEST TRUNK
LINES, so imperatively demanded for the ac
commodation of the immense and rapidly-grow
ing transportation between the Atlantic seaboard
and Europe on the one hand, and the great pro
ducing regions of the Ohio and Mississippi Val
leys on the other.
TIIE IMPORTANCE OF THIS ROAD AS
A NEW OUTLET FROM THE WEST TO THE
SEA magnifies it into one of national consequence,
and insures to it an extensive through trafflic
from the day of its completion; while, in the de
velopment of the extensive agricultural and min
eral resources of Virginia and West-Virginia, it
possesses, along its own line, the elements of a
large and profitable local business.
Thus the great interests, both general and local,
which demand the completion of the CHESAPEAKE
A*D OHIO RAILROAD to the Ohio River, afford
the surest guarantee of its success and value, and
RENDER IT THE MOST IMPORTANT AND
SUBSTANTIAL RAILROAD ENTERPRISE
NOW IN PROGRESS IN THIS COUNTRY.
Its superiority as an East and West route, and
the promise of an immense and profitable trade
awaiting its completion, hare drawn to it the
attention and co-operation of prominent Capital
ists and Railroad men of this City of sound judg
ment and known integrity, whose connection with
it, together with that of eminent citiiens and bus
iness men of Virginia and West Virginia, IN
SURE > AN ENERGETIC, HONORABLE and
SUCCESSFUL MANAGEMENT.
The Road is completed and in operation from
Richmond to the celebrated White Sulphur
Springs of West Virginia, 127 miles, and there
remain bat 200 miles (now partially constructed)
to be completed, to carry it to the proposed ter
minus on the Ohio river, at, or near, the mouth
of the Big Sandy river, 150 miles above Cincin
nati, and 350 miles below Pittsburgh.
Lines are now projected or in progress through
Ohio and Kentucky to this point, which will con
nect the CHESAPEAKE AND OHIO WITH
TnE ENTIRE RAILROAD SYSTEMS OF
THE WEST AND SOUTHWEST, AND WITH
THE PACIFIC RAILROAD.
Its valuable franchises and superior advanta
ges will place the CHESAPEAEE ASD OHIO RAIL
ROAD COMPAKT among the richest and most
powerful and trustworthy corporations of the
country; AND THERE EXISTS A PRESENT
VALUE, IN COMPLETED ROAD AND WORK
DONE, EQUAL TO THE ENTIRE AMOUNT
OF THE MORTGAGE.
The details of the Loan have been arranged j
with special reference to the wants of all classe* •
of investors, and combine the various features of
convenience, safety, and protection against loss
or fraud.
The Bonds are in denominations of
SIOOO, fSOO, and SIOO.
They will be issued es Coupon Bondt, payable
to Bearer,and may be held in that form; or
The Bond may be regi&tered in the name of the
owner, with the coupons remaining payable to
bearer, attached, the principal being then trans
ferable only on the books of the Company, unless
re-assigned to bearer; or
The coupons may be detached and cancelled,
the Bond made a permanent Regietered Bond,
transferable only on the books of the Company,
and the interest made payable only to the regis
tered owner or his attorney.
The three classes will be known respectively as
let. "COUPON BONDS PAYABLE TO
BEARER."
2nd. "REGISTERED BONDS WITH COU
PONS ATTACHED."
3rd. "REGISTERED BONDS WITH COU
PONS DETACHED," and should be so designa
ted by Correspondents iu specifying the class of
Bonds desired.
They haTe THIRTY YEARS to run from Jan
uary 15, 1870, with interest at six per cent per
annum from November I, 1879, PRINCIPAL and
INTEREST PAYABLE IN GOLD IN THE
CITY OF NEW YORK.
The interest is payable in May and November,
that it may take the place of the earlier issues of
Five-Twenties, and suit the convenience of our
friends who already hold Central and Western
Pacific Bonds, with interest payable in January
and July, and who may desire, in making addi
tional investments, to have their interest receiva
ble at different seasons of the year.
The Loan is secured by a mortgage upon the
entire Line of Road from Richmond to the Ohio
River, with the equipment and all other property
and appurtenances connected therewith.
A SINKING FUND OF SIOO,OOO PER AN
NUM IS PROVIDED FOR THE REDEMP
TION OF TIIE BONDS, TO TAKE EFFECT
ONE YEAR AFTER THE COMPLETION OF
THE ROAD.
Tbe mortgage is lor $15,000,000 of which $2,-
000,000 will be reserved and held in truat for the
redemption of outstanding Bonds of the I'iryima
Central Railroad Company, now merged in tbe
CHESAPEAKE ASD OHIO.
Of the remaining 13,000,000, a lufficient
amount will be old to complete the road to the
Ohio rirer, perfect and improre the portion now
in operation, and thoroughly equip the whole for
a large and active traffic.
The present price is 90 and accrued interest.
A Loan so amply secured, so carefully guarded,
and so certain herealter to command a prominent
place among the farorite securities in the mar
kets, both of this Country and Europe, will be at
once appreciated and quickly absorbed.
Very respectfully,
FISK & HATCH,
Bankers.
p. s. We have issued pamphlets containing
full particulars, statistical details, maps, etc.,
which will be furnished upon application.
We buy and sell Government Bonds, and
receive the accounts of Banks, Bankers, Corpora
tions, and others, subject to check at sight, and
allow interest on daily balances

HAIR VIGOR,
FOR THE RENOVATION OF THE HAIR,
THE GHEA T DESIbEIiA TI M OF THE AGE
A dressing which is at once agreeable, healthy,
and effectual for preserving the hair. Faded or
gray hair is eoon restored to its vriginal color and
the gloss and freshness of youth. Thin hair is
thickened, falling hair checked, and baldness
often, though not always, cured by its use.
Nothing can restore the bair where the follicles
are destroyed, or the glands atrophied and decay
ed. But such as remain can be saved for useful
ness by this application. Instead of fouling the
hair with a pasty sediment, it will Weep it clean
and vigorous. Its oreasional use will prevent tbe
hair from turning gray or falling off, and conse
quently prevent baldness. Free from those dele
terious substances which make some preparations
dangerous and injurious to the hair, the Vigor
can only benefit but not harut it. If wanted
merely for a
HAIR DRESSING,
nothing else can be found so desirable. Contain
ing neither oil nor dye, it does not soil while
cambric, and yet lasts longer on the hair, giving
it a rich glossy lustre and a grateful perfume.
