Vhatever its causes, (and they are innu- merable,Jits symptoms are“ nthe main the same. Among tle mort prominent are extreme lassitude, loss of eqetite, loss of flesh, and great mental de- pression, Indigestion and a Stomach Cough are also freqently concomitants of this distressing state of dy and of mind. The common remark in relation (0 persons in such a condition is, that they are consumptive. Now, what these unfortunates really want is visor, vital strength; and as certainly as dawn succeeds darkness they can recuperate their sysems amd regain perfect health by resort- ing to HOSTETTER’S CELEBRATED STOMACH BITTEHS.

Dean Lirrie Motiig: You must not think that because this letter dates from the West it comes trom some of your Fuirfield friends, or PRM ARRE Mthea’ Higham, wheseat xan it for a signature to determine who its author is, for there will be no signature to it, except incog. Ifthe handwriting ny guide to its author, or the place from whence it date: are welcome to the information it conye: if you recognize the (here some word is torn off) hereby enclose as oneofakind with which you are familiar, and snrely you haye heard enough of them to know. You must not be mauch at a loss to know its author, but further than this I cannot help you. I will just here remark that you must not say anything to Mrs. Alexander about receiy- ing this letter from me, for if she should know that I had sent you a letter, you know what she would do—kill me; so if you haye any re- gard for your friend incog, you must keep whist. I like to think of yon, dear little Mollie. I like to tulk with you: Llike to write to you, and L little friend whois the kes; and I would like to and I believe we havea The letter covers four pages, and is closely fwritten. It is signed “Incog Another dated “Sunday, February 27, 1359,” and ii follows: Dear Mow Yours of the 23d is received, and in compliance with your request I write Sunday. I would much rather have the time spend writing to spend with you—in conyer- sation. As much of a privilege as is that of writing to absent friends, it is a bore to the heart full of longing for their society, and hay- ing had the expectation of meeting you and communicating by word of mouth the fullness of my heart, it becomes almost a task to trace out, word by word, what time would scarcely be sufficient to utter in sentences, Have you any idea, dear Mollie, how much pleasure it affords me to open your letter and find myself addressed as your dearest friend! And is it true that of all whom you esteem your friends, lam the dearest to you! Itis rather gratifying to one’s yanity thus to sus- tain the pre-eminence in the mind of « valued friend. It is refreshing to be assured that in the midst of a cold-hearted, selfish world, there is yet one heart that warms with kindness, sympathy and affection; to know that my dear hide ‘Mollie is such a friend to me, is asource of rauch satisfaction, which I appreciate in its fullness, and I wish to be your true friend as well as your dearest friend in the scale of your regard. Such I willseek to be, and that1 do haye an anxious solicitude for your best inter- ests, such as true friendship begets, I can say, I think, with candor and truth. Yes, dear Moflie, you may be Assured that your regard is felt and cherished with true ap- preciation, and that it meets a cordial response in my own heart, and all the more that you maintain such regard in the midst of a good deal of bitter enmity on the part of those whom I have neyer injured in any way, and even by those toward whom I have ever felt none other than kind feelings. ‘The letter closes as follows : I do want to see you, dear Mollie, and hear from your own lips concerning the many things I wish to know, and a heap of kisces from the same source. Yours affectionately. Another is dated ++Eddy ville, .May 11, 1559,”" and addressed to + Dearest Lite Mollie,” and signed “Yours affectionately.” The next, “Eddyville, April 25, 1559,” and addressed to «My dear Molhe.” The next is dated Des Moines, April 15, 1859. ‘ Some ten or twelve letters were read to the jury. ch coyers four pages of closely-written man pt. They are full of loye and kind advi All through the letters he speaks of ppy he will be to come to bis “dear ake her on his knee and receive his kisses.” He advises her as to «ll her personal matters, and frequently refers to her wild and playful disposition. Another is dated “Thu and commences as follow Dearest Girl; 1 promised to write you during the present week a long letter. as I commence it ] cant say how long it will be, further than that it shall be as longas itis practicable forme to make it, ITreceived your tavor of the 23th truly and gladly. You know not how it soothes my many griefs and disappointments to receive # kind, long, warm-hearted letter from my doubly dear, sweet little Mollie. I had forgotten about those long dresses. I will believe you always like to write me wheneyer opportunity per- mits you, and that the sitisfaction thus af- fordeG arises from a sincere regard for your friends. That causes might arise to diminish that re- gard I must think possible, with my knowledge of the human heart, and I might say particu- larly of woman’s heart, but you repudiate all such ideas. You think woman’s heart un- changing, especially your heart. I will not dispute your claim to enduring affection, in- vulnerable to the attacks of malice from my enemies or from mere surmisings of unworthi- ness on my part or slight causes of offence, and I do hope there will never be anything in the future between us to disprove the idea. And I, dear Mollie, shall not get “spunkey” very easily: although I confess Iam somewhat sen- sitive as to anything that looks like a slight from any one. ‘particularly from any one in Burlington, where 1 know I have so many bitter enemies to manufacture feelings against me. And you are thinking of the fun yon are to have on the Fourth. Shall I tell you of some I would like to haye! 1 would like to be alone with dear little Mollie, somewhere where we could stroll off to some sequestered place in the shade of some friendly woodlands, and to- gether sit and talk overthe past and enjoy the present of each other’s affection; where no ob- truding eye would sap the sweetmess of our mutual kisses, and no unwelcome voice would violaie the sacredness of unbroken comming- ling of words and hearts—wouldn’t you !"* This letter covers six pages, and is without signature. The next is a long letter, covering eight and ahalf pages. It is dated Monpbay, August 22, 1259. O! My. Dear Littce Rosrsvup :—Is it after making me crazy that you are, or is, for mak- ing me heart jump clear up into the throat of me till I'm kilt eniirely, that you're sakin afther, that you sind all the way from Burling- ton such a picture that would make the howly Virgin Mary blush again! O! howly St. Pater! WhatamItodo! My head grows giddy, and divil-a-bit could Fsa, Me ly up above the head of me—me fingers stick right out side- wise—me hair stands on eend—me eyes stick outso far ahead of me I can only touch them wid me cane, and I go runnin up the strateand back again like mad! O! howly Virgin Mary, intercede for me, for divil-a-bit of rason have I got left, and I’m mad entirely. You know, darling, when a person is bitten by a venomous snake, his skin assumes the color of the snake. Ifan abominable snake has such an effect on 3 man, is it strange, that when bewitched by the sweetest looking Jrish girl that_ever lived, he shonld become an Irishman? Who wouldn't be anything to.be the recipient of sucha favor as lon Sat? How am I to thank you for such afavor! .O joyous surprise! Glad source of delirious joy. “* Many times I had longed for your picture, and let my imagination dwell upon the receipt of, but durst not ask you for it, for reasons I ‘will give you if we ever meei—nol now; but it is the more ful, mee arheeorench inexpressible deligiit. , Mollie, as I re- ‘turned from the Post Office, after receiving it T felt solight I could with difficulty keep the avoid flying.

Had my back been turned they (the women who saw me) would have taken me for one of their own number, unless they had carried their scenting bor far, in Which 1 presume, they would have discovered ir mistake. And many times during the day do I look again and again at this beautiful shadow of 3 re beautiful substance, and each time draws forth some fresh exclamation of swelling admiration, Do not, my dear Mollie, let that accursed blotch on your neck be left to mar such a beautiful person as yours. Yon have neglected it already too long—do so no longer, Perbaps, dear girl, you will think me pee 4 nt ULE econ’ m my expressions elight at the receipt of your pic!

So, under the circumstances, IT hope you will excuse me, dearest, if Ido plaster it on rather tek. 1 would not resort tO gross flattery of your personal appearance, though your charms were those of Venus, (and Ido not think them short of it.) for I possess too much of sincere regard for your best interests to turn flatierer, ‘nd injure you with extravagant praise, I would rather tell you your fanlts and show forth my regard and appreciation for you by the unmista evidence of duty faithfully performed. Faithful are the wonnds of 2 friend, but kisses of an enemy are deceitful.” it I speak warmily in vour praise it is but the true gushing forth of uncontrolled feeling, and you know by experience may ring the din of hated chiding in your ears, and make you, wish. oh, so much! it might cease. But when I chide yon, Mollie, I would rather take you in my arms and soften the harsh accents by the soothing caresses of true, kind, and warm affection, for Lam not « tyrant nora bear in disposition; neither would I be the fitful cat that utters her fondness in tones of winning tenderness at one moment, and plants her 0 s to the quick into her darling pet the but I would be as I have professed, your true friend, in advance asking pardon for his many failings. Will you believe me, Mollie, and will you understand me asi make my very imperfect efforts to express my senti- ments. While I protest I could tell you a dan sight better if 1 could see you. ‘And my dear, dear Mollie, shall I not sée you at Ottumwa the first of the month! Dear girl. 1 want ta urge you to come if at all practicable, and don’t let small considerat.ons prevent you, and come in such & way as uot to be tied up to some lady else, as to prevent our being together most of the time, mind you! I broke my promise and. did not write “Sunday:” but it was not be= cause I intended to, but becanse I could not geta minute to myself. To-day has been rather dull, and I haye snatched the odd moments to write yon this broken letter.
