THE INDIANA STATE SENTINEL, WEDNESDAY, JANUAIiY 14, 1880. WEDNESDAY. JANUARY 14 Thk honest Republicans of Maina admire Governor Garcelon'a pluck. Th bribery knaves of Maine will be investigated. That is the way it looks.

Masked balls are becoming popular in yew York City. The "ton" have taken them in Land. Hon. Orth will probably be retired. A new era of law and justice seems to be dawning.

Immigration from Europe during the year 1879 at the port of New York reached a total Of 175,589. Moat of the immigrants came from Germany, Iroland, England and Sweden. The Maine Radicals evidently thought that members of the Legislature were as readily bought up as the Radical rascals of the Lou-isiaca returning board. They were most gloriously overreaohed. r.

Bayard seems determined to urge for ward his currency measure, whether the country wants it or not. The general seatf-mect of the country demands that financial atfdirs shall be let alone for the present. Tue lick spittle Journal is trying to claim political kinship with Andrew Jackson. Nothing could be more convincing that it is edited by an idiot Toe ridiculousness of the thing id only equaled by Theodore Tiiton, who, it is said, spends hours before a mirror, fancying that he looks like Raphael's painting of Christ. Tue Missouri penitentiary is inhabited by felons law-breakers of every degree, from a sneak thief to a murderer; almost every crime known to the code is represented.

These muscular felons earned last year and $13,881 mora than It cost to su port them. Missouri makes its penitentiary pay something more than can be said of it? treasury department. CiiPCKlxjx Is not exactly a "crushed trage- dmn," ut as a governor he Is badly scattered. Journal. N), Garcelon is not "exactly crushed." The Kepubiican whj threatened to him hiva not yet hid ths nsrve to the bloody dead; and Blaine hai not yet placed himself at the head of his gang of knaves to inausurao civil war.

Garcelon does not appear to be much shattered, nor frightened. He will go out office with no violated laws and violated oaths to haunt his retirement only eJC-gvernor In the country whose Iif wai threatened bacaase he vould not commit perjury in the interest of the Republican party. Tiie Journal published a letter from Grsencastle, on Monday, denying the truth of certain statements made by parties in Grcencastle, regarding the discharge of white men to make way for North Carolina negroes. Our Greencnt'e Correspondent say 9 that the statements, as made to the reporter, were read to their authors before publication in the Sentinel, and that they indorsed the ftitemenis as correct. Th" fc'ilowing is the letter from our Green-castle correspondent, who is one of the most reliable gentlemen in Putnam counay.

The letter, dated January 5, Bays: The contradiction from Treasurer Hiltis' men, or rataer their recantation, as published In the Journal of yesterday, excites no little merriment here, where the facta are known. Tlit; statements of the men who were succeeded oythe negroes iu the treasurer's employ were dictated by them, and when read to the in were pronounced all right. What influences were brought to bear upon them to induce their recantation the reader can easily determine. Tui: leaders of the Republican party in this State, true to their miseraoie instincts, are willing to deprive poor white men and women the men and women of their own race and bload of a fair living price for a fair day's work. In short, following close upon the severe hard trials and struggles for existence which these, our own poor, have recently undergone, Republican conspirators traitors alike to public pod and common humanity these heartless, soulless scoundrels would now practically drive the poor laboring white men and women of Indiana away from their best hopes the graves of parents and children; yea, van their ail, and all this for what? to give place to a horde of North Carolina vagrants and mendicants, brought here far no other purpose under Heaven than to vols for a third term president and fourth term P3st- xnasters.

In the name of all the gods at once, will not this cold, sei fUh, cruel, utterly soulless scheme recsive such a rebuke at the hands of the people as will serve to proven4; a recurrence of such a crime for at lsast the next thousand years? Wi met yesterday one of the pauper immigrants from North Carolina trying to ob tain money to pay his way back to North Carolina. He bad had three weeks' experience in Indiana and was satisfied. He had been able to find employment at $1 per wek. His rent is per moaU. He has a wife and two children.

The prospect is sorrowful and he wants to go back to his oli Lome. In North Carolina he could save a little money. Itcost him $30 37 to reach Indianapolis, and when he arrived he ha2 $3 in his pocket, but now, penniless and amor 2 etrangers, he to realize the Infamy of the Republican plot to allure him, and others still worse off, from their homes, and reduce them to pauperism in a strange land for the purpojs of voting the Republican He is sicfc of Indiana. He has found ont that the Lsngsdales and Martin-dales and all the other heads and tails of the exodus infamy have played the devil with the and he does cot believe anything they ssy. IIel3 a pauper, lodging for the old home.

lie feels deeply the cruel wrong Rapublican ratcals have rlaitednpon his race, and quite likely will be before the investigating committee. BRIBES IN KAINE. The news of the doings of Republican conspirators in Maine, to secure control of the Legislature, in defiance of constitution and law, is itartling. The infamy of the scheme can not be exaggerated. It exposes the fell designs of Blaine and his crew, and is another warning to the people of the country of the dangen which environ their liberties, if the Republican party can, by any possible means, obtain power.

There is no doubt but that during the lata cam-paign in Maine the Republican leaders employed the most execrable means to obtain votes. Such things as intimidation, bribery, open bidding for rotes, the amount agreed upon being payable in cash, were practiced, and the facts can be obtained to establish, beyond controversy, every allegation. The parties purchasing the votes and the parties purchased can be found, and the amounts paid can be ascertained. There was, probably, never a political campaign in the country where the laws were so openly and impudently violated; where frauds were so unblushingly committed. The rascals see me 3 to be Impressed with the fact that they bad a sure thing, and therefore played their cards with a singular disregard for all the decencies and proprieties usually practiced by each knaves.

Blaine wanted the State to help on his presidential boom. With Maine, he could indulge in the hope of a nomination; without it. his boom fell dead. If luck should favor his aspirations, and he should, to satisfy the vengeance of Heaven, become president, Maine Republicans would be amply repaid for all Their schemes worked well up to a certain point When Governor Garcelon took hold, rascality had a poor show for official station, and Blaine's boom was in peril. Then came threats of war, bloodshed and assassination.

But such things did not move Governor Garcelon. Then the supreme court dodge was introduced, which also failed. Things looked blue forthe Republican There was one other device open, shameless, Infamous bribery. Money was forthcoming, and $1,000 head was offered Fusion members of the Legislature to disregard their obligations and remain away from the capital, and thereby prevent a quorum. The affidavits are clear, explicit, and to the point.

And, now then, why this extraordinary effort to obtain control of the Legislature by such nefarious means? Not so much, we opine, to help the Dlaine boom as to re-vent the Legislature from investigating Republican scoundrelism during the campaign, and which, if urged, will doubtless send a score or two of Republican knaves to the penitentiary, unless the supreme court should Eave them irora merited punishment-it is to be hoped that the investigations will be had. They will do much toward intensifying the conviction that the leaders of the Republican party are the most infamously corrupt gang of knave3 that ever cursed any country under Heaven. TBE ANIMUS OF THE NEGRO EXODUS. Dan Vonrbees and his Ilk of fellows are malting a great Iuhh becaasefiomc North Carolina colored peopie nave moved Into Indiana iu search of work and The real objection on D.m's part is to their politics If they voted the Demo-Conled ticket they would ail fe heartily welcome to the lioosifer Hlate. Thus far only aoout a thousand have arrived in Indiana.

Nearly all have located in Putnam. Clay and Vigo counties on farms, having xecared better places than they are used to. They generally make arrangements for a small piece of laud and a house lor their families, and are receiving from 915 to a month for farm work lu cash, whereas in North Carolina they were paid about half these wages In Rtore truck at double the honest market prices. Tnepe darkles are usually tickled at being paid off each month by the Indiana farmers in big, solid, shining sliver dollars. They take to the "dollars of the daddies" with a wonderful avidity.

They say It is Just the ksnd of money they have been loo ulna; for and particularly want. They have no sympathy with the Bayard, Khernian and Hayes hostility to silver dollars. All the blacks of the South are delighted to lift silver dollars for their wages and cotton. Newcomers vote In Indiana upon six months' residence In the state. These thousand darkies will all be voters next fall.

They have mostly settled In the Eighth district, which the Democrats carried last year for congressman by majority, though the Republicans carried It iu electing Hunter by l.luu majority. What Co. fear is, that this black Republican reinforcement of bone and muscle win redeem the Eighth district next fall, and turn the balance in seveiat counties lor legislators, who elect a senator In pkxe of McDonald, whose term expires March 4, 181. That ta where the shoe pinches. The stream of colored laborers liom North Carolina, however, continues to pour into Indiana, Dan Voorhees' protests to the contrary notwithstanding; and all who arrive previous to next May wid be entitled to vote next fall in Indiana, which la thus gradually ceasing to be a doubtful State.

Chicago Tribune. We invite the people of Indiana to read the foregoing, from an exceedingly stalwart or. an of the Republican conspirators and knaves. It tells the whole story of the purpose of the negro pauper exodus to Indiana, and seeks to promote it by a number of lies as bald and as blasphemous as any that have hitherto helped Republicans ta maintain power by fraud, forgery and perjury. The Chicago Tribune does not hesitate to say that the imported pauper negroes are brought into the State of Indiana for the purpose of changing the political complexion of a congressional district, for the purpose of making the Legislature of the State Republican, and for the purpose of defeating the Democratic party in the election of a United tat es senator in the place of Hon.

Joseph E. McDonald. True, the lying organs of the pauper exodus Infamy have disclaimed that the exodus of pauper negroes from North Carolina had any political significance whatever, or that it is a Republican scheme in any sense, but the Chicago Tribune lets the cat out of the bag, and with an effrontery of an arrested felon tarns state's evidence upon the whole gang of Republican knaves, black and white, and divulges the villainous scheme, so that there need be no further equivocation upon the subject. The reason for bringing the penniless paupers to Indiana in mid winter is also disclosed. The Tribune says "that all who ar-riveprevioui to next May will be entitled to a vote next fall in Indiana, which is thus gradually ceasing to be a doub tful State." As a result of this scheme pauper negroes beggars the moment they land upon Indiana soil without proper clothing in some instances with icarcely any clothing at all old and decripit; mothers, far advanced in pregnancy; infants, suffering from nakedness, cold and hunger; old and young are often crowded into shelters scarcely a remove from henneries or hog pens, to Rive birth to children, and where, in one instance at least, the infant suffered death by freezing.

And these indescribable cruelties and miseries that cry to Heaven for redress, are committed and forced upon ignorant pauper negroes by Republican scoundrels, kidnapers, conspirators and knaves, that the Eighth district may be made Republican and that a Republican senator may be elected and that Indiana may cease to be a "doubtful State." But this is not the 'entire lesson that this pauper negro exodus teaches. The Tribune says these pauper negroes are "receiving $15 to $2.3 a month for farm work in cash" which is a monstrous lie a deliberate, villainous lie, published to deceive the negroes and help on the exodus. We doubt if a negro pauper has been employed who has not displaced some worthy white laborer dependent npoa his wages for subsistence. The whole story that Indiana stands in need of farm laborers beyond the home supply is a lie industriously circulated by the' lying exodus organs to obscure their partisan designs, and the effect to rob men already in the State of the means of subsidence, and to force them into idleness and mendicancy, crime and the penitentiary. These Republican knaves, these black and white kidnapers, who entice the pauper negroes from their homes in North Carolina, and ship them over railroads at a bonus of so much a head, as men ship hogs or cattle, and damp them down in Indiana by contract, to live upon private and public charity, to die like ratten sheep in pens and shanties, are violating the laws of the State, with regard to bringing paupers into the State, and should be arrested and tried and punished as the law directs, and for their cruelties to the poor, pauper dupes the last scoundrel of the gang should be tied to a whipping post and made to suffer.some of the pangs they have been the means of inflicting upon women and children whom they have misled, that the "Eighth district" of Indiana may be wrested from Democratic control, and that a Republican United Statej Benator may be elected in 1331.

MAINE. Tbe news from Maine is in all regards sat- factory, in so far as it relates to the triumph of the constitution and the laws of the State over a gang of conspirators, who, having failed to get possession of the Legislature by fraud and illegal returns, tried threats of war and blood and assassination; and falling in that, went back to first principles, and tried bribery. All these nefarious schemes failed, and the Legislature of Maine has been organized according to the constitution and the laws of the State and Governor Garcelon, having complied with the law, turns all the matters in dispute over to the representatives of the people. The probabilities now are that Elaine and his confederate rascals will have to go through an investiga'ing threshing machine, which, when it has done its work, will present them to the public in a condition in the highest degree gratifying to all men who demand honest elections. If this is done, the credit will, in a large measure, be due to Governor Garcelon, who, in a time of severe trial, had the necessary backbone to stand Arm.

The country has for many years stood in need of men of the Garcelon type men, who, knowing their duty, dare do it, and take all the consequences. We predict that in the future, even in Maine, when a supreme court seeks to bring the law into supreme contempt, statutes governing elections will be more risorouly adhered to, and more faithfully executed. If this supreme good results from the troubles In Maine they may well be regarded as very choice blessings. THE BUREAU OF STATISTICS. The State and Delegate Board of Agriculture, with delegates representing some 'JO counties of the State, unanimously pasted a resolution yesterday recommending that enough copies of the full statistical forthcoming report be printed to supply all the township, county and other public libraries of the State, and that a copy be sent to each of the offices of the county clerk, auditor treasurer and recorder, to be kept in these places for public reference by the people of the State.

These reports would be useless unless the general public can have access to them. This action seems wise and timely. clippings. "Poor Richard's Almanac" was first published In Philadelphia, in 1732, by Bsnjamln Franklin. The first book published In America was printed In the City of Mexico, December 13, 1510, and was used by the Spanish priests as an aid in converting the natives.

The Memphis Avflanche says: Grant will hold tbe solid Southern vote in the convention, and If he doei not desire tbe nomination himself, he will wield the name of the other man who does want it. Tue Kansas City Times says that the negro exodus from North Carolina to Indiana continues. Five able-bodied men are kept busy chalklDg the hats of the deluded Ethiopian exiles in the railroad depot at Raleigh. The Petersburg (111.) Democrat says of English, of Indiana: We believe him to be a strong candidate, and he would make a good president. Besides, he is a patriot and a Democrat.

His posltlon'can alwaya be known. The Pittsburg Telegraph says: Fernando Wood will introduce his funding bill this week. He looks upon the success of resumption as proof that the Government can get all the money It wants at 3 per as one will be as easy as the other. The Philadelphia Times says: The First National bank of New York Is Secretary Sherman's favorite institution. It has a capital of and the official report shows that It cleared 91,200.000 lust year.

It would seem that the bank didn't lose anything by Its liberal deposits from the treasury. The Elgin (111.) Leader conveys some timely advice, which Is particularly appropriate at this time. The Leader says the only way to overthrow the Republican party in the North Is to build up a strong Democratic press, and the only way for Democrats to build op a strong Democratic press Is for Democrats to work to that end, subscribe for tbe paper, and solicit their friends to do likewise. The Little Rock, Democrat says: Mr. English, of Indiana, as a presidential candidate, With Horatio Seymour, for the second place, strikes us as being entitled to grave consideration, in the event it Is not deemed vdvl-sable to renominate Mr.

Tilden. It would i nquestionably make a combination as little obnoxious to adverse criticism as any yet suggested. They are both excellent men. The New York Sun quotes Mr. Tilden as saying: "For my part, I will do everything I cau to secure the election of the man who may be agreed upon by the opponents of the third term conspiracy aa the best candidate to unite the conservative elements of all parties.

If a third term can be conferred upon Grant, a fourth and fifth wili be. In short. Grant's Installment In the White House in 1881 means the empire." Pennsylvania may fairly claim to possess the stupidest man In the country. lie Is a farmhand near Lebanon, and was hired to plough a 10-acre field. Ilia boss, wishing to have him plough a straight furrow, directed his attention to a cow grazing in an adjoining field, and told him to drive directly toward her.

On his return, half an hour later, he found the cow had left her place and was walking about, while the hired man, in pursuit of her, was drawing a zig-zag larrow all over the field. A cobbespcxdeict from Naraba, writes us that the Democrats of that portion of the Bute are iu favor of Mr. Hendricks for the next presidency, and think that he can poll more votes than any man yet named for the position. This same correspondent adds that a prominent Republican of Nebraska once a resident of Indiana remarked to him that the negro colonization policy of the Republicans, and the miscegenation tendencies of the Indianapolis Journal, had prepared him to vote for Mr. Hendricks lu 1SS0.

That for every negro Imported Into Indiana the Republican party would lose two votes. The New York Tribune Is authority for the statement that Senator McDonald said to day that he thought the decision of the Maine supreme court has practically decided nothing. Regarding tbe principles involved, the senator avoided committing himself, he said: "I have no opinion on the subject because I have not studied lt. I think, however, that whatever Gircelon and his council may determine upon In their official capacity and within their legally constituted authority is law. Whether it Is a good and Just law or a wicked and unjust law Is not in question.

I have In my experience before the supreme court often been obliged to acquiesce In decisions which I knew to be wrong, yet I did not call those decisions In question." Idaho has a go-as-you-please town. It Is a place called Beaver, situated at the mouth of Reaver canon, is a sort of kangiroo city which has Jumped along as the railroad advanced, so or 40 miles at a time. A year ago it was calldd Oneida, and was 120 miles from Ogden, since which time it has changed its base and name several times, and Is now 110 miles from Its former base. When the town takes a spring, the hotel, saloons, dwelling houses and shops are packed up and moved along and set down again Just ai they started. In each new locality the streets an 3 signs appear the same, so that a visitor at one place is at home, without asking, in the new.

The inhabitants seem to take kindly to this municipal nomadic life, and Barney O'Niel, the hotel keeper, says: "Ivery time she Jumps she Jumps alsier." Bob Pharr, a South Carolina negro, held that no white man bad a right to arrest him under a ay circumstances. He was a thiei.and that was the manner in which he construed the meaning of the fifteenth amendment. Three policemen surrounded his house, and he Jumped from a window, shooting one of them as he escaped. He got out of a jail by snatching a pistol from the sheriff and shooting him with it. He killed a constable who was endeavoring to recapture him.

He murdered his wife because he suspected her of Intending to deliver him up. At length a party of police invaded his hiding place at Charlotte. They bad not searched long before his head and a pistol were protruded from behind a bed. Officer Hill unhesitatingly sent a bullet through his brain, killing him instantly. A page of the czar's diary, if we may believe the San Francisco News Letter, runs as follows: "Got up at 7 a.

ra. and ordered my bath. Found four gallons of vitriol in It, and did not take it. Went to breakfast. The Nihilists had placed two torpedoes on the stairs, but I did not step ou them.

The coffee smelt so strongly of prusslc acid that I was afraid to drink It. Found a scorpion in my left slipper, but luckily shook it out before putting it on. Just before stepping into the carriage to (to Tor my morning drive, it was blown into the ulr, killing the coachman and the horses insuutly. l.dld not drive. Took a light lunch ou hermetically sealed American canned goods.

They can't fool me there. Found a poisoned dagger in my favorite chair, with the point sticking out. Did not sit down on it. Had dinner at p. and made Baron Lalschounowonssl taste every dish.

He died before the soup was cleared away. Consumed some Baltimore oysters and some London that I have bad locked up for five years Went to the theater, and was shot at three times In the first act. Had the entire audience hanged. Went home to bed, and slept all night on the roof of the palace." A BEEB-DBINKING DONKEY. Drink From the Glass and Loafs Like Other Old Soaks.

"Say, if you want to see a jackass drink beer, go to the saloon on tbe corner of Noble and Georgia Btreets." Tnls was the greeting of a policeman to a Sentinel reporter. Acting tjpon it yesterday morniDg. the S. r. found himself at the spot designated with very little outlay of money or muscle.

The saloon spoken of goes by the modest name of the "St. Charles," which, however, appears in large letters on the side of the building. Stepping in at the door, Mr. Donovan was called to the front. "Where is the animal that drinks beer?" was the query put to him.

"Here, Jenny; come and have a glass of beer," was the reply, turning around and speaking across the roam. The reporter, looking in the direction indicated, beheld a diminutive donkey, three feet, two inches in height, standing by the stove, in such an attitude as is adopted by every old "bum," and, somehow, it had the appearance of having its hands in its pockets. Its hoofs were but little larger than a silver half dollar. "Jenny" looked up on hearing the invitation to have a "smile," and the next second she started in a gentle trot across the room to the bar. Mr.

Donavsn drew a glas of beer and handed it to Jenny, who took it. between her teeth and drained it to the la drop Another gl bps was then drawn, but she drank it very d.mently. "She's not feeling'very wtll this morning, and is tolerably drunk now," apologized the proprietor. "How long bave you owned her?" queried the man with a nose for news. Three or four months," replied Mr.

Don-avan. "I got her one night at a raffle for 40 cents. She's about 10 years old. She has lived in a brewery most of her life, and that's where she learned the habit. She never drinks water won't touch it; but sht'll drink any thing tbstiskept at the bar." A little Donavan had come upon the scene meanwhile, and with a party of men, frequenters of the saloon, had gathered around the Jenny stepped too near tbe little fellow, who kicked at her, with the remak, "git out, ye divil," and the beast walked back to loaf by the sHve.

Jenny is the pet of the neighborhood. Everybody knowa her because she is so dwarfed, and also became she is utterly worthless, except aa a curiosity for her beer guzzling propensities. She is treated with more consideration than the majority of old soaks, who never have a cent, and only get their beer when some one is generous enough to "set 'em up." Jenny was feeling better a few hoars afterward, when another call was made with a friend. She drank her beer with all the old relish, and the reporter paid for it Jennie stands every morning at 5 o'clock at the front door of the saloon, and demands admittance and her beer; nor will she leave until her demands are complied with. When ehe takes hold of the glass an ordinary beer glass with her teeth, she never lets go her hold until thq glass is empty, DEMOCRATIC COMMITTEE The State Committee Meet and Fix the Time for Holding the Convention for June 9.

Inasmuch as the proposed constitutional amendments will, in all probability, a great bearing on tbe October and November elections, Sentinel reporters busied themselves last night to get an expression from the prominent Democrats, in attendance upon the Democratic State Central committee meeting, relaiing to what support, if any, would be given to them in tbeir respective counties. From those interviewed it will be observed that there is almost a decided opposition to their adoption. Robert W. Miers, representative from Monroe county, eald that the amendments would not receive the full support of bis county. He further Faid that the Republicans of Monroe had held several meetings in conjunction with the colored pop ulation, and had decided to take into that county about 150 Carolina negroes, purely lor political purposes.

In olden times, when a joint representative was elected from Monroe and Brown, the county was Democratic, but changed to Republican until the last two or three years, siDce which time the Democratic vote has gradually pulled up, until now the county may be considered doubtful. These Degrees, in the numbtr mentioned, would materially benefit the Radical party. Hon. J. B.

Stoll, of Ligonier, said the amendments would be supported by the people of bis county. Co hoc el Henderson, of Anderson, was emphatic in his denunciation of the proposed amendments, and thought they would receive little if any support from Madison county. One objection is the changing of the October election, E. W. Brown, of Columbia City, Whiteley county, had no regard for the amendments, and assured the reporter that they would receive little indorsement in his part of the State.

As a side issue he stated that Landers and Gray were talked of for governor, but that Colonel New might be mentioned for the gubernatorial chair, in which case he would receive able support H. H. Francis, editor and proprietor of the Michigan City Dispatch, is assured that the amendments wi 1 be dtfeated in. his county that of Laporte. John NelF, of Randolph county, unlike many of the others, thought the constitutional amendments would be supported by the people of his locality.

"On the part of Owen county, B. Schweitzer said that he, as well as tbe people of that county, were constitutionally opposed to the amendments. He further said that preparation bad been made for tbe colonization of 200 Carolina neeroes tbere. They were not needed, and there was no work for tbem. Dr.

H. V. Norvell, of Greene county, was of tae opinion that tne amendments would cot be supported by the people of his county. Editor Khutt, of Elkhart county, was Inclined to the belief that the amendments would be defeated by the voters of Elkhart county. N0MISEE FOE C0VEEX0R, A canvass among the representative Dem.

ocrats in attendance upon the State com. mittee meeting, last evening, would mdi. cate that Hon. Franklin Landers and Colo nel Gray were tbe favorites in the race although General Manson and Hon. Jeptha D.

New were frequently spoken of. A LATE CONVENTION. Mr. George T. Carr.a prominent Democrat of Marion, Grant county, in a conversation held with him by our representative, was very much in favor of a late convention, and a shoit, rattling canvass.

He thinks that tbe proper time would be late in July or early in August. This would be some six weeks after the nominations made by the Republicans, who will meet une 17, which will give us a clear six weeks' wkacfc at them. In that time we could kill off their entire ticket from governor down to the last man on it. Argued Like a DIilomk (Yonkers Satesuiau. A four-year-old neighbor of ours lately said a good thing.

His mother had promised that in a few days she would communicate something that would make him very happy, provided he was a very good boy in tbe meantime. Bat he didn't want to wait, bo he urged her to tell him now, promising not to repeat it and offering other inducements. Finding that everything failed, be said, his last argument: "Whisper it to me, mamma, and I'll forget it."

Uterine Affections, Cankers, Ulandular Swellings, JN'odes, Wasting and Decay of the Body, Pimples and Blotches, Tumors, Dyspepsia, Kidney and Bl -wider Diseases, Chronic Rhenmaiism and Gout, Consumption, ravel and Calculous Deposits, and varieties of the above complaints to which sometimes are given specious names. We aert that there Is no known remedy that possesses the curative power over these diseases that Radway's Resolvent furnishes. It cures step by step, surely, from the foundation, and restores the Injured pvrtato their Hound condition. Tne wastes of the body are stopped and tiealtby blood Is supplied to tbe system, from which new material Is formed. This is the first corrective power of Radway's Resolvent.

In cases where the system has been salivated, and Mercury, Quicksilver, Corrosive 8ublimate have accumulated and become deposited In the bones. Joints, c-auaing carries of the bones, rickets, spinal curvatures, contortions, white swellings, varicose veins, the Harsapanllian will resolve away these deposits and exterminate the virus of the disease from the system. It those who are taking these medicines for the cure of chronic, acromions or Syphilitic diseases, however slow may be the cure, "feel better" and And their general health Improving, their flesh and weight increasing, or even keeping Its own, it is a sure sign that the cure is progressing. In these diseases the patient either gets better or worse the virus of the disease is not inactive; if not arrested and driven from the blood it will spread and continue to undermine the constitution. As soon as the Harsaparilllan makes the patient "feel better," every hour you will grow better, and Increase in health, strength and flesh.
