STRONG A great many people are asking what particular troubles BROWN'S Iron Bitters is good for. It will cure Heart Disease, Paralsis, Dropsy, Kidney Disease, Dyspepsia, Rheumatism, and all similar diseases.

Its wonderful curative power is it iply because it purifies and the blood, thus beginning at itc foundation, and by building up iie system, drives out all disease. Lady Cured of Rheumatism. Baltimore, May 7, 1880. My health was much shattered by Rheumatism when I commenced taking Iron Bitters, and I scarcely had strength enough to attend to my daily Household duties. I am now using the third bottle and I am regaining strength daily, and I cheerfully recommend it to all.

1 cannot say too much in praise of it. Mrs. Mary E. Brash ear, 173 Prestmanst. Kidney Disease Cured.

Christiansburg, 1881. Suffering from kidney disease, from which I could get no relief, I tried Brown's Iron Bitters, which cured me completely. A child of mine, recovering from scarlet fever, had no appetite and did not seem to be able to eat at ail. 1 gave him Iron Bitters with the happiest results. J.

Kyle Montague. Heart Disease. Vine Harrisburg, Pa. Dec. 2, 1881.

After trying different physicians and many remedies for palpitation of the heart without receiving any benefit, I was advised to try Brown's Iron Bitters. I have used' two bottles and never found anything that gave me so much relief. Mrs. Jennie Hess. For the peculiar troubles to which ladies are subjeft, Iron Bitters is invaluable.

Try it. Be sure and get the Genuine. A BRAVE LACY. She Endures the Pain of Severe Surgical Operation Without Taking (From the Courier.) Mrs. Schoonmaker, of Creek Locks, Ulster Co.

In this terrible strait she consulted Dr. David Kennedy, of Rondout, N. who told her at once that the injured eye must be removed.

She quietly but firmly said. right, Doctor, but give me chloroform. Let my husband sit by my side during ihe operation, and I will neither cry out or The work wag done, and the poor woman kept her word. Talk of soldierly courage! This showed greater pluck than it takes to face a bund ed guns. To restore her general health and give tone and strength to the system, Dr.

Kennedy then gave the which cleansed the blood and imparted new life to the long suffering won. an. She rapidly gained health and strength, and is now well. The is a priceless ble-sing to ou.en. No family should be without it.

Sharp and Vigorous Inaugural Address. A TERRIBLE BLOW TO MASSACHUSETTS CONCEiT. Bostov, Jau. 4. In recent years no inauguration ba-been so popularly attended Governor at the St ite House to av.

Hours before the time for him to appear the halls and passages were crowded, so that motion whs difficult and the jhr-overflowed down the broad steps and even into the Common. The jo.nt convent! nfor inauguration oucurred in the of Representatives which was packed. ver an hour was consumed by preliminaries and the crowd which could not get in gradually dispersed At half past 12 o'clock the supreme judicial court entered, followed by General Butler dressed in an evening suit, carrying a gold headed cane and wearing usual buttonhole bouquet. He walked up the aisle and sat at the desk, amid the applause of his friends Distinguished gues's followed and soon the House was packed to the last Inch. Among those present, besides State officers, were Colonel N.

A. Plimpton, manager of campaign in 1882, Colonel dorms H. French his gerini877, Hon. Marshal P. Wilder, President Eliot of Harvard, ex-Governor Banks, Collector Worthington, John K.

Tar box, Mayor Palmer of Boston, Major Haggerty, Judge Thomas Russell, Hon. A. C. Woodworth, candidate for lieutenant governor with Butler in 1876. "When the guests and crowd were all in, President Crocker el the Senate administered the oath at.d Governor Butler signed hie name to the oath.

The instant he did so his friends applauded, both in the galleries and on the fi and a few seconds later the first gun of a military salute was fired on the common. Secretary Pierce thenl made proclamation that General Butler had been installed as Governor and warning all people, specially the State officers, to take due notice thereof. Roncwed applaused followed this declaration. immediately after Oliver Ames was inaugurated as Lieutenant Governor. Governor Butler was then presented formally to the legislature and proceeded to read his address.

GOY. ADDRESS. In his inangural address Governor Butler first calls attention to the financial condition of the State a- sh wn by the statement. He mentions the fact that the Hoosac tunnel and Troy and Greenfield roads are in such condition as to be nonsupporting and iutimates that this and other matters per1 aining to the finances of the State will be marie the subject of a special message to the legislature after. The question of suffrage is consider at length.

In his opinion a capital tax should be paid as the duty of a citizen but not as a suffrage Qualification, but the penally for should not be disfranchisement. Poll taxes should be assessed by ci ieS and towns for their proper benefit only and not 8 a State and county tax, and a change in the law to that effect is recommended. The desirability of establishing free suffrage to all citizens at as early a day aB possible is urged, and authority quoted to show his is a right at id immunity guaranteed by the constitution of the Unit, States. Some modifications ofjthe registration lawi are suggested. I he right of suffrage in women is affirmed, a constitutional amendment is necessary to secure the full right for women to vote for all state a national officers, and the question wi-ether that amendment should be made should be le to the women themselves to determine.

It is that a law be ssed allowing women to vote under the same regulations as men in elections, which law take effect a hen it shall be accepted by the majority of the women voting at some general election. 3e recommends that municipal and State elections be held the same day and that said day be a legal holiday. A repeal of the restriction of naturalization to supreme and superior courts only is recommended. Governor Butler allndes to complaints made as to delays of ju-tice. This he says is not the fault of the court8 but of the system of juri-diction under which they act.

He proposes to give his views of the hing and alterations of this system to the legislature in another communication. The only criticism he makes upon the that of iate there has attempt to make the discipline too like that of ihe reguar army, which disgusts militia men with the sendee and ac counts for the fewness of the numbers who appear for camp ity. He promises to remedy this so far as he is concerned. He recommei ds an act providing that any person convicted of train-wrecking shall suffer oeath, and condemns the practice of stock gambling or speculations upon the necessaries of life as an offense at common law tnough rarely prosecuted. The affairs of the various reformatory, correctional and pauper institutions of the State are considered, and attention is called to the amount of to all the other costs.

he present statutes virtually place the trustees of thes institutions beyond the reach of executive interference. The executive has no power to correct abuses, even if kD wn and flagrant. Extravagance is charged by Governor But er, and figures are given to show that the cost to the tate tor the support of the inm of hese iustitutions is considerably greater than that i ucnrred in county institutions of the same character. In regard to the State prison affairs he asks whether insubordination or sul enness among con victs might not be prevented or reduced by legislation by providing that every pi isouer by steady and effi dent work and obeyi-g nil rule- and regulations may work off a portion of his sentence every month, according i his deserts Now only obedience to all rules counts. He believes this would do more to prevent insubordin and outbieak than guards, solitary cells or other He also; asks not a certain percentage of the earnings be invested in a fund be prisoner when discharged, to art him in ihe world again, tLis perven age to be enlarged when the prison becomes self-supporting? If the legislature will approve this experiment the executive will give all needed ui ihe industrial school for girls the Governor says.

A well fed, well cared for idi is a ha, py creature; an idiot awakened to condition a serab He recommends the classification of insane in var.ous asylums and presents as a matter for legis lative con-ide ation the fact that the doors of insane es ablishmeuts, private as as public, open a tng ther oo easily i. ward and with too great difficulty outward iu the reception and discharge of in mates A ge in the system of auditing the accounts of the State is 'ed; also, that provision be made for the appointment of a purchasing officer for a 1 State supplies as iu the interest of ecoi omy.

These latter terms are a fruitful source of abuse. Upon the subject of taxation he says: all the property in the state could be reached and p- op taxe even if our expendi ures were not essei-ed our taxes would be ieduced one-haif, they nowbei nearly equal to one-balf the income receive upon perfectly safe investments in public stocks. One of the best methods to lessen taxation is the strictest eco omy iu making appropriations for public expenses, whether for 'tate, county, city or town. Abolish all unnecessary offices and paid employes the State. Cut off all questionable Discrimination in favor of foreign insurance com pauies as against home companies in the matter of taxation is referred to as a subject for legislative inquiry.

Legislation is suggested thereby no employe of any steam railroad shall be obliged to work more than trn hours in any one day, except in an emergency. Other modifications of the laws defining the liability of railroad corporati ns for injury to their employes are recommended. i pon the subject of educaiion, after asserting that salaries are as a rule much too large, he says: the branches taught in the primary schools by law specifically to spelling, reading writing, grammar, arithmetic geography, siory, preferable of the United States, and require that these shall be taught the same system to tbe same grade of schools eve common school in the commonwealth. When ike scholar can show that he is well grounded in the elementary English branches, then let him be admitted to a school of higher grade where he shall bo taught algebra, geometry, the rudiments of ilie Latin and French languages, chemistry, physics with natural philosophy in a rudimental degree, and there common school educaiion should stop When bv this system of echo--Is we have brought Massachusetts from her present position to be the first state in the Union in the reading and writing of citizens, b-ere wid be somebo iy here doubtless more compete ni to advise what is best to be done in conclusion Governor B- tlur have presented tbe result of my best thought; upon the topics occiiring to me as of interest to you aud ike dis ussion -of which would benefit Slate The time has not been possible to me to give them needed care, classification and condensation.

Frequent touobes of sly humor enlivened it and the applause as iuterspersed as pr -fusely as ever in a stump speech. Off hand interpola'ions were made.

Speaking of the abolition of the poll tax as a qualification for suffrage he interjected the words, such men as Harvard he argument for woman suffrage was liberally app'auded. When urging reforms in various departments ho said that fortunately tbe military was under control of the ciunman ler-in-ebief, a thrust of grim humor which caused side-shaking laughter.

FISHING INTERESTS. Report of the Portland Fish Bureau for 1882.

By the kindness of Mr. Willard, of the firm of G. Willard president of the Portland Fish Bareaa, we are able to lay before onr readers a copy of the doings of the Maine fleet for the past year, as forwarded to the Bos ton Fish Bureau to be incorporated in their annual report. It has always been impossible previously to collect these statistics, but since the formation of the Portland Burean, last year, arid owing to its exertions, the work has been accomplished. The catch of cod and other ground fish landed at home ports is as follows: 33 a cr a a aS ot-g-Jg 2 :8 -q.

CauSZllieOQ It is found that, if the oyster industry be neglected, Maine ranks second only ta Massa chusetts in the extent and value of her sea fisheries. If the weight of the products alone is considered, the six principal species, placed in the order of their importance, are as follows: Pounds Cod. 66,004,325 Herring. 34.6M5 192 Mackerel.

31,694,455 24 447,730 Hadd ck. 17,728.735 Lobster. 14,234,182 If, however, the money value is considered, the relative importance of the species is somewhat different. The following arrangement represents he fisheries according to their value: Herring fishery (including the sardine Mackerel fishery. 659,304 Cod tish-ry 656,753 fishery.

412,076 Hake fishery. 278,336 Haddock fishery. 225,393 The statistics are intended to represent the fishing interests for 1880. The first lobsters ever sannod within the limits of the United States were put up Eastport, in 1842, and, with the exception of a limited business in Boston at various times, Maine, has always had a monopoly of the industry for the entire country. In 1880 none were canned outside of the state, and the table, therefore, shows the extent of the business for the United States.

The entire lobster catch of Maine for the year is found to be 14.234.182 pounds, of which 4,739,898 pounds were sold fresh, and 9,494.284 pounds were put up bv the twentythree canneries located in different parts of the state. Several of these canneries were owned by Boston capitalists, but the great majority belonged to Portland dealers, who, in addition to their home interests, operated 17 canneries in the British provinces. During the same season according to the statistics furuished by them, they bought 10,588,578 ponnds of live 1 from the Provincial fishermen, from which they put up 2,198,024 cans of the various brands. Tbe sardine industry is peculiar to Maine. In fact, if we expect the menhaden, put up in Nr Jersey several years ago, under the name of and the industry was, up to 1880, coDfiDed exclusively to the village of Eastport.

Though experiments were made in the preDaration of herring as sardines as early as 1866, the business did not practically begin till 1875, since which time it has grown with remarkable rapidity. In 1880, as shown by the tables, it furnished employment to over 1.500 fishermen and factory hands in addition to 376 fisherman be'onging to Brunswick, and the value of the products amounted to nearly $825,000. In the Atlantic Coast fisheries Maine employs 606 vessels, with 17,632 65 tonnage with 5,920 boats. 8,110 fishermen, 2,961 packers and factory bands, and takes 202,048,449 pounds fish of a total value of $3,614,178 with an Invested capital of $3,375,994. Somerset County Notes.

Fairfield, Jan. 3. Mr. exciting question of the past few days is settled, and the wire pullers of the Democratic party are disappointed. When I wrote you Saturday, the question as to who would be Deputy Sheriff was in a tangle, and it looked as though Mr.

Lawry would be reappointed, but instead Mr. Geo. O. Brown, a trader and well knowu citizen, received the commission, and has entered upon the duties. Now the people will wait with some interest to see what will be dona to check the liquor traffic in our midst.

Io Kennebec county a Republican sheriff declined to reappoint Mr. Matthews ot Waterville, a thorough-going temperance man who believes in tbe enforcement of the law and has attempted to com nletely stop rumselllng. The reason reported Ib that Mr. Matthews is too radical. A brass band has been organized in this village and will give their first concert next week.

The errors assessing amounted to about forty dollars. This is tbe sixth year that Mr. Tuck has filled this office, and each year the entire amount has been in the hands of the treasurer on or before January 1st.

By rtason of this the town has been able to reduce the rate of taxation, wipeout the indebtedness and show a good surplus on hand. Towns which are In debt and collecting undei the old system are advised to pay a fair per cent for the labor and demand prompt payment.
