A Bare Medicinal Combination.
Perhaps the rarest, certainly the most
successful, medicinal combination extant
is Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters. In this
commanding tonic, corrective and pre-
ventive, are blended some of the most
actively invigorating, alterative and blood
depurating elements in the vegetable
kingdom. These are held In solution,
and powerfully aided by the best diffu-
sive stimulant known—aid rye whisky.
Is it any wonder that easy digestion,
regular evacuations, a natural flow of bile,
purity of the blood, and cheertulness of
mind, should be vigorously promoted by
a preparation in which sucli admirable
ingredients are most harmoniously com-
bined and act in perfect union. The
faith felt by the medical fraternity in the
restorative efficacy of this medicine, and
its power to nullify the influence of mala-
ria, is expressed over the signatures of
many eminent physicians, and their ex-
pressions of confidence are fully ratified
by the people and the press.

Mr. Langbalie had an investigation bW-'
tore Judge Wilson Monday, charged with
passing a counterfeit five dollar bill, and
was held to appear at Tyler in the sum of
five hundred dollars. He gave bond
promptly. The unanimous opinion of
our citizens appears to be that a great in-
justice has been done Mr. Langbalie. He
proved by several of our best citizens that
the five dollar bill was snatched trom his
hand at Nolan Halt by Buckwheat, and
that he told Buckwheat it was counterfeit
and demanded i * return. Buckwheat,
it appears, gav' the bill to Kendall, who
was receiving tickets at the door, who
subsequently filed complaint against Mr.
Langbalie.
Mr. Langbalie sustains an excellent
reputation in the community, and no one
who is acquainted with hint will believe for
a moment he would attempt to pass a bill
knowing it to be counterfeit, and we have
not the 'east idea he will be found guilty
before the United States con it. The in-
justice of this tiling shows itself in caus-
ing him the heavy expense of going to
Tyler and paying the expenses of his
witnesses.
“Many cases of fever and ague, dumb

use of your Simmons’ Liver Regulator.
You don't say half enough in regard to
the efficacv of your valuable medicine, in
cases of ague, intermittent levers, etc.
Every case has been arrested immediate*
ly. Believe me when I say I was a suf-
ferer for many years with the liver dis-
ease. and only found relief bv using your
medicine. When your medicine is taken
it seems to send a thrill through the nerv-
ous system.

Bishop Garrett’s Lecture.
It did not suit the purpose of the Bish-
op to show that *0 far, at leant, as the in-
struments subservient to animal life are
concerned, the vertebrates are all built
upon the same plan, and that their varie-
ties are but modifications of one funda-
mental structure; nor did it suit him to
state the fact that they rise above each
other in the scale by additions to, or en-
largements 01 but one structural basis,
v. hich is the same in all—from the fish to
man.
In the human fabric arc to be found all
the organs which chiefly minister to ani-
mal life, which exiet in every species be-
neath it in the scale, and the superiority
of man consists in having parts which no
other animal possesses, or which, if pos-
sessed, exist only in the rudimentary
state, not in having a new structure
throughout, but in super-added, or more
fully developed parts to an organism, as
old as (the incalculably remote Silurian
»ge.
Man, in the subordinate parts of his
organization, and even in the inferior
and central portions of his brain, is iden-
tically th* same as-the other members of
the vertebrated series. The exalted rank
to which he has attained is chiefly due to
his larger and better developed brain.
In tl>is respect the interval between civil-
ized man and the most sagacious brute is
immense. It grows less as we descend
to th* savage, but still the difference is
very great between “the Cannibal, who
can construct a canoe, and who knows
the use of fire," and the most highly or-
ganized living ape.”
Fortunately, for the evolution theory,
6ome ol the missing links have been
found. The remains described by Broca,
indicate a race uniting low, ape-like
qualities to those characteristic of man.
These were probably the remains to which
the Bishop alluded, supposed to be only
five thousand years old, and which he
considered unfavorable to Darwin’s theo-
ry, as he could show a drawing of a skull
reputed to be ten thousand years old, of
as good a tvpe as now commonly pos-
sessed, which, according to his methods
of ratiocination, exhibits evolution re-
versed—Darwinism upsidedown.
The'Reverend lecturer is not a believer
in the modern hereby of progiess. He be-
lieves that mankind had as good brains
ten thousand years ago as to-day, to
prove which he presented the picture of a
head, ten thousand years old, as big as a
half-bushel measure. If people cannot be
convinced with such ponderous arguments
as this, it is becase they have degener-
ated from their big-headed ancestry.
Shauffliausan, a high authority, is of a
different opinion from the lii-hop. He
says “the ancient races in Europe were all
lower in the scale than the rudest living
savages.”
The primitive types of man are all ex-
tinct. The flat-heads of South America
only exist, as fossi's in the soil of Peru
and Brazil. And the men of the palto
liihic and neolithi ag s l ave left no me-
mentos, save some rude flintarrow heads,
stone hatchets and a few fragments ot
their bones. These long perished races
were probably the defendants ot a still
lower tvpe of man which graduated tothe
anthropoid ape* immediately beneath it.
the authority of some Frenchman, that | ju g
the mode in which the monkey brain g-o ='
grows, is the reverse of the same process | - $
in man.

During last week very inbere&tiug and
impressive services were held' in St.
Luke’s church, which nas just been com-
pleted in this city. A full description of
the construction of the church and its ap-
pointments has already been given in the
News. Jt is a credit to the congregation
that erected it, to the contractor who had
charge ol its erection, and to this city.
Nearly every stranger who has visited
the city from other parts of the Sta.Se,
has acknowledged that it is. one of the
most complete, tasteful and churchly edi-
fices that is to be found in Texas.
On last Wednesday and Thursday
nights services were held by the Rector,
Rev. F. W. Adams, assisted by the Rev.
E. O. Crane, rector of St. Sttven’s
church in Sherman, who preached two
very interesting discourses. On last
Saturday night services were again held
by the Rector, assisted by the Rev. Mr.
Poitness, of Terr,II. On last Sunday, at
10:30 a. m., St. Luke’s church was con-
secrated, according to the rites and
usages of the Protestant Episcopal
Church, by the Right Rev. Alexander C.
Garrett, Bishop of the missionary juris-
diction of Northern Texas, assisted by
the Rector and Rev. Mr. Portness of Ter-
rill*.
The Bishop with clergy entered the
church in procession reading alternately
from the psalter, until they had entered
the church. The instrument of donation
was read by the Rector. The Bishop
then censecrated the church. Then fol-
lowed morning prayer, with sermon by
the Bishop, after which the Bishop, assist-
ed by the Rector, celebrated Holy Com-
munion. The silver communion service,
used on the occasion, was presented to
the church bv the Bishop.
At 3 o’clack p. m. there were public
Sunday school services, at which address-
es were delivered by the Bishop and visit-
ing clergy. The lenten offering of the
Sunday school, amounting to fifty dollars,
was then presented, which will be devoted
devoted to the expenses of the chancel
window.
At 7:30 evening prayer was read by
the clergy, after which the Bishop preach-
ed an interesting and able sermon, and
administered confirmation to a class pre*
sen led by the Rector, consisting of the
following persons: Maj. R M. Grubbs,
Mrs E. F. Giubbs, Mrs. Ella R. Davis,

uxly finds no difficulty in bridging the j^jsi Maud M. Grubbs, Mrs. M, V. Rich-
chasm. He says “that in eyery single
visible character man differs less trom the
higher apes than these do from the lower
member, 01 the same order.” It this
statement of the great philosopher is coi-
rect, we can readilv conceive that some
cerebral aditions to an animal not higher
than the chimpanzee would m ike the
brain ot the lowest type of man. and that
some '•nlargement ot the brain of the high-
est Lemars would make it eqUal|to the brain
of the lowest monkey; and we might
thus descend to the primitive vertebrates,
without finding in the nervous centres of
sensation and motion, in the organs ol
special sense and automatic action, any
other difference from the same system in
the higher mammalia and man than de-
crease in some of its -parts, und modifica-
tions to suit particular organic confor-
mations. _ !

imals of the past geological ages were the
progenitors of every existing species.
The tendency to divergence in form
which we witness in every type—esoecim-
ly when placed under new conditions,
would in the course of vast period* of
lime originate many different lines ot
descent, even il at the dawn of life the
first living being* were tn- same every-
where in toriri and constitution.
No other hypothesis can g ve a satis-
factory explanation oi that infinite
variety ol form and devclopement in ani-
mated" nature, which gives such a charm-
ing interest to the labors of the classify-
ing naturalist. Great as are tne differ-
ences between classes, and endless as are
the varieties of form, there are no radical
distinctions between organic bein: s All
are built up hv the same law of cell multi-
plication, and during the fetal stage
transformed to higher tvpes by essentially
the same methods; and from an inherent
tendency to vary, undergo modification*
of form and change* of structure.
In those distant times which preceded
the evolution of our race, theftendency of
living beings was to approach nearer and
nearer to the more perfect and compli-
cated form of man. Says Oken, “man is
the sum total of all the animals.” Owen,
the great comparative anatomest recog-
nizes man as the “ideal exemplar for the
vertebrated animals—the type for the per-
fection of which nature had been working
from the earliest ages.”
Upon the subject of homology, the Bish-
op was very reticent—probably because
he had no need o( the facts therewith
connected to make out hie case. Indeed
if he had fairly and fully represented them
they would have been somewhat damae-
ng to his argument. Neither did he
enter upon the subject^ embryology, ex-
cept to pervert its facta by stating upon
