Br ascii .The quarterly report of II. N. Tliis
uell.the superintendent of this Branch, em
bodies the details oi the personal labors, sales,
and grants of 91 colporteurs on this field ;
showing that in the quarter ending June 1, in
cluding sales at the depository, they circulated
over 11,400 worth of publications, addressed
U77 public meetings, made 42.211 family vis
its, united in prayer or held religious conver
sation with 27.31G of those families, 5,924 of
which, embracing nearly 00,000 souls, habitu
ally neglect the house of God on the Sabbath,
cud 2:S19 of them had no Bible.
One colporteur, who has labored fourteen
yeais, had visited nearly every family in Blair
and Huntingdon coui tics, and many ol them
repeatedly ; and in this time had furnished
Them by sale with 112,000 volumes, or 14,000
worth, and distributed gratuitously 7,000,000
piges. His ciiculation had annually increas
ed, a id the last quarter it exceeded any quar
ter since he began his work.
Another, who had visited C84 families, and
conversed and prayed with 2SG of them during
the quarter, relates an account of the conver
sion of an intelligent gentleman by the bless
ing of God on the reading of the' American
Messenger.
Another, describing the destitution of his
field, says religions books would never go into
sonic parts of it unless carried by the colpor
teur. Persons had shown him tracts and books
vhich he sold them three or four years ago,
which had been the means of their conveision.
Some had been active in promoting Sabbath
schools. Seven colporteurs, during their connection
with the Society, report the organization of
120 schools. Many other cheering facts might
be enumerated, if our limits would permit.
During the months of May, June, and July the
committee have commissioned 120 colporteurs,
including 74 students, to prosecute this work
in twenty-three states.
Will not all who appreciate the gospel as the
means of salvation give this work their pray
ers and eflicient cooperation !
LIFE IN TEXAS.
A correspondent, writing from Erath Coun
ty. Texas, under date of Aug. 2J., says :
Foul murders, killing, and fighting, are en
tircly of too frequent occurrence in this part
of the country. I would to Heaven we had
less of it. Ever since last February we have
been in one continued state of excitement, ow
ing to the war, the murders, the ravages, and
the slaughter of women and children by the
neighl oting savages. But their most intense
hostility has been directed to our live stock ;
hundreds and I may say thousands of horses
have been killed or carried oil by them ; and
such has been the apathy of people at a dist
ance, that they have seemed to regard the ac
counts as our delusive stoiies. It is true that
our Governor ordered out Minutemen, Han
gers, and a Regiment of Cavalry, but they
were so slow getting along, and so badly offi
cered, that they have done little or no good,
many of the officers of the regiment seeming
to regard the whole affair as either visionary,
useless, or as an electioneering scheme.
And, as the thing has gone off", it has proved
an effectual call for all the grand villains and
horse-thicives to gather in for their share of
the booty. As the vultures gather around a
carcass, or as the wolves follow in the wake of
Buffaloes, so the rogues have come here.
White men have come in and taken the pla
ces of the fierce Cammanches and the prowl
ing Caddos. But the ire and indignation of
the more hardy and honest portion has been
aroused. Some of those fair-skinned savages
have been caught. One in this county has
' been hung, and I hear that several in Tarrant
have shared the same fate (1 can't say wheth
r it be true or not) ; but a very respectable
Vigilance Committee, consisting of citizens of
this county and Bosque, have spent nearly a
week in investigating the case of the principal
' rogue, Tucker by name. This Tucker they
have turned over to the civil authorities, he
having made a clean confession of the whole
thing. The examination of the others has
been deterred until they can send for more
persons. i have no doubt but that the thing
will go on lively now lor some time. But we
jiere are only acting on the little rogues
There are some bier rogues nn near the Indi
ans under the guise of Indian traders who re
ceive these hundreds and thousands ofhor
es and run them off to Missouri and Kansas
ana dispose of them. These are the iellows
e want to get hold of.

HOSTETTER'S STOMACH BITTERS.
It is a fact that, at some period, every mem
ber of the human family is subject to disease or
disturbance of the bodily functions ; but, with the
aid of a good tonic and the exercise of plain com
mon sense, they may be able so to regulate the sys
tem as to secure permanent health. In order to ac
complish this desired object, the true" eoursc to pur
sue is certainly that which will produce a natural
state of things at the least hazard of vital strength
and life. For this purpose, Dr. liostetter has in
troduced to this country a preparation bearing his
name, which is not a new medicine, but one that
has been tried for years, giving satisfaction to all
who have used it. The Bitters operate powerfully
upon the stomach, bowels, and liver, restoring them
to a healthy and vigorous action, and thus, by
the simple process of strengthening nature, ena
ble the svstem to triumph over disease.
For the cure of Dyspepsia, indigestion, .Nausea,
Flatulency. Loss of Appetite, or Bilious complaints,
arising from a morbid inaction of the Stomach or
Bowels, producingCramps.Dysentary,Cholie,Chol
era Morbus, Ac, these Bitters have no equal.
Diarrhoea, dvsenterv or flux, so generally con
tracted by new settlers, and causod principally by
the change of water and diet, will be speedily reg
ulated by a brief use of this preparation. Dyspep
.. ,- , t i i i .
sia, a disease wnicu is proouoiy more prevaieui,
m all its various forms, than any other, and tne
cause of which mav always be attributed to de
rangements ot tne digestive organs, can ue tureu
without fail by using 110STETIER S STOMACH
BITTERS, as per directions on tho bottle. For
this disease every physician will recommend Bit
ters of some kind : then w hy not use an article
known to be infallible ? All nations have their
Bitters, as a preventive of disease and strengthen
er of the system in general; and among them all
there is not to be tound a more neauny people
than the Germans. from whom this preparation em
anated, based upon scientific experiments which
have tended to prove the value oi mis great pre
naration in the scale of medical science.
Fever and Ague. This trying and provoking
disease, which fixes its relentless erasp on the bo
dy of man. reducing him to a mere shadow in a
short time, and rendering him physically and men
tally useless, can be driven from the body by the
use of HOSTETTER'S RENOWNED BITTER'S.
Further, none of the above-stated diseases can be
contracted, even in exposed situations, if the Bit
ters are used as per directions. And as mey nei
ther create nausea nor offend the palate, and ren
der unnecessary anv change of diet or interrup
tion of ordinary pursuits, but promote sound sleep
and healty digestion, and the complaint is remo
ved as speedily as is consistent with the produc
tion of a thoiougu ana permanent cure.
For Persons in Advanced rears, who are sutler-
inr from an enfeebled consitution and infirm body.
these Bitters are Invaluable as a restorative of
strength and vigor, and need only bo tried to be
appreciated. And 10 amoinerwuue nursing ineso
Bitters are indispensable, especially where the mo
ther's nourishment is inadequate to the demands
of the child, consequently her strength must yield,
and here it is wnere a gooa ionic, sueu .i uusicw
ter's Stomach Bitters, is needed to impart tempo
rary strn-rth and vigor to the system. Ladies
