VOL. 111.
OoxKttTiCPT Dsmooiutic Cokven
tiok.—A Convention of the Democracy
of Connecticut was held at Hartford on
the Gth instant. One of the resolutions
adopted declared, “There is no obstacle
in the way of the harmonious working
of our republican institutions, save the
factious course of a mutilated Congress,
who have inaugurated anew revolution,
and are determined to rule the country
in violation of the Constitution, and to
I establish their wild and fanatical will as
a substitute for the Union framed by
the fathers of the republic.”
The nominations presented were, for
Governor, James E. English ; Lieuten
ant Governor, Ephraim B. Ilyde, of
Sta fiord.
The Crkpitob’s Stratagem.— Four
creditors started from Boston in the
same train of cars, for the purpose of
attaching the property of a certain
debtor in Farmingtou, in the State of
Maine. He owed each oue separately,
and they each one were suspicious of
the object of the other, but dared not
say a word about it. So they rode,
acquaintances all talking upon every
thing except that they had most at heart.
When they arrived at the depot at Far
mington, which was three miles from
where the debtor did business, they
found nothing to “put ’em over the
road” but a solitary cab, towards which
they all rushed. Three got in and re
fused admittance.to the fourth; and the
cab started. The fourth ran after and
got up outside with the driver. He
uskod the driver if he wanted to sell his
hors*. He replied that he did not want
to—that he was not worth more than
fifty dollars, but he would not sell him
for that. He asked him if he would
take one hundred dollars tor him.
“Yes,” said he. The fourth man qnickly
paid over the money, took the reins,
and bucked the cab up to a bank, slip
ped it from the harness, and tipped it
up so that the door could not be opened,
and jumped upon the horse's back and
role of lickarty-switch, while the in
siders were looking out of the window,
feeling like singed cats. He rode to a
lawyer’s and got a writ made and serv
ed and his debt secure, and got back to.
the hotel just as the “insiders” came up
patting and blowing. The cabman soon
bought back his horse for fifty dollars.
The “sold” men offered to pay that sum
if the fortunate one, who found properly
sufficient to pay his own debt, would not
tell of it in Boston.
Ax Affecting Story. —A negro s t
on the curbstone bare, brooding over his
woes; sad was his heart and kinky his
hair, his gizzard feet were exposed to
the air, and exceedingly seedy his
clothes. And as he sat in the catting
blast, we had to pity the cuss; he wist
fully looked at each person that passed,
and we heard him soliloquize thus:
“Oh ! why did Ole Abe, wid de hatchet
face, go set this darkey free ? I was happy
at home wid de oder nigs, wid plenty of
whisky an’ feedin’ like pigs, an’ ole Di
nah was happy wid me. Ole Massa
was kind, an’ when I was sick he fed me
an’ kep me at home ; but now 1 feel
sick, l’se got nuffin to eat, an’ lias to n't
here an’ f-eeze in de street. Oh! why
did de buro cum? In de winter time I
sat by de fire, wid de young ’uns, husk
in’ corn ; but now I’se got no huskin’ to
do, nil’ no good fire or house to go to,
an’ my clo's is all tattered an’ torn. In
de summer time, when de day,s work is
done, we danced at de cabin door; for
we all was gay, an’ we danced away to
de good ole music Pete used to play,
but I feels like dancin’ lio more. Oh!
if ole massa would take me back on de
ole plantation agin, I'd never leave for
sich freedom as dis; but I’d work
mighty hard, an’ jis’ to show dem how
foolish l’se bin." When the darkey
ceased, the big tears from his eyes rolled
down over his cheeks very fast, and we
left him there on the curbstone bare,
exposed to the cutting blast. And we
could but think as we passed along, oh!
what has the “Bureau”done? It fed the
negro all summer and spring, when he
could get work at almost anything, but
now lets him starve around town. —Lott-
inville, (K'j.) Gonmvcial.
Snout)y.—A word as to shoddy. I
thought it was a term of reproach, a
thing to be ashamed of, a sly (lodgment
of the duffer. But Leeds is not ashamed
of shoddy ; I taiks about it openly, uses
it openly. What is shoddy ? I was not
quite clear on this point before I went
to Leeds, but I know all about it now,
and will give others the benefit of my
newly acquired and useful knowledge.
Shoddy is old wool made as good as
new. Every manufacturer keeps a
devil, a ravenous beast wilh a fearful
set of iron teeth, and an insatiable appe
tite for old coats and old trousers, old
anything that is made of wool. Toss
him an old garment and he will tear it
to pieces in no time. The spun and
woven threads are converted into wool
again, and are worked up into new
threads to be woven once more into a
piece of cloth. Cloth so made —with a
mixture of new wool—looks very well.
I defy -you to tell which is shoddy cloth
and which is not. We all wear shoddy
without knowing it. For light wear
shoddy cloth will answer every purpose;
but it will not stand strain and exertion.
You must not venture to practice gym
nasties in a pair of shoddy trousers. Here
is the weakness of shoddy—the shortness
of the staple. You know now, if you did
not belore, why thw old clothes-man is
eager and anxious to buy any garment,
however ragged, which is composed en
tirely of wool. —All Hie Year Round.
—The extensive authority of parents
under the Chinese laws is well known.
A Chinese of forty years old, whose
aged mother flogged him every day,
shed tears in the company of one of his
friends. “Why do you weep ?’’ “Alas 1
things are uot as they used to be. The
poor woman’s arm grows feebler every
day.” -
—An eccentric American at Hom
bourg presented Haiti with an enormous
bouquet arranged in the form of a lile
size statue of the priina donna, putting
about the neck of the figure a valuable
necklace. When Paili quitted Hom
bourg she took the necklace but left the
statue.

sional cure of Mrs. Dr. Mary Walker, in
London. We wonder what Betsey Jane

STILL TRIUMPHANT!
A ND AFTER A THOROUGH TRIAL
by innumerable living witnesses, has
proved itself to be
THE MEDICINE OF TIIE AGE.
Although there have been many medici
nal preparations brought before the public
since the first introduction of Perry Davis’
Vegetable Pain Killer, and large amounts
expended in their introduction, the Pain
Killer has continued steadily to advance in
the estimation of the world as the best
family medicine ever introduced. As nn
internal and externul remedy, it is truly a
source of
Joy to the World!
One positive proof of its efficacy is, that
the sales have constantly increased, and
upon its own merit?, as the proprietors have
not resorted to advertising to gain for it the
rank it now holds among the great number
of preparations of the present time. The
efiect of the Pain Killer upon the patient.,
when taken internally in cases of Colds,
Coughs, Bowel Complaints, Cholera, Dys
entery, and other affections of the system,
has been truly wonderful, and has won* for
it' a name among medicinal preparations
that can never be forgotten. Ils success in
removing pains, as an external remedy, in
cases of Burns, Bruises, Sores, Sprains,
Cuts, Stings of insects, and other causes of
suffering, has secured for it such a host of
testimony, as nn almost infallible remedy,
that it will be handed down to posterity as
one of the greatest medical discoveries of
the nineteenth century. Tbe magical ef
fects of the Puiu Killer, when taken or used
according to directions, are certain. You
have only to bo sure that you buy the
genuino article andadbero to the directions
in its use, and you will admit its wonderful
medicinal properties.
The genuine Perry Davis’ Pain Killer is
now put up in panel bottles, with the words
Davis’ Vegetable Pain Killer blown in the
glass ; and with two steel engraved labels
on each bottle—one an excellent likeness 01
Perry Davis, the. original inventor of the
medicine, the other a steel engraved note of
hand. None others cau bo relied upon as
genuine. Prices of bottles 12J cents, 25
cents, 50 cents, and sl, respectively.
Valuable Medicine —"VVo presumo no
medical preparation ever offered to the pub
lic has been more thoroughly touted than
PERRY DAVIS' PAIN KILLER. Thou
sands of persons, were they called upon to
do so, would cheerfully testify that they
have used it for various ills, with tbo most
satisfactory success. It is within our own
knowledge that an immense amount of suf
fering has been relieved by it. Its pro
prietors, Messrs. Perry Davis *fc Son, save
no pains or exponso in order to satisfy the
1 üblic. Being strictly honorable men, they
observo tbo utmost uniformity in tbo man
ufacture of their celebrated Pain Killer.
The materials of which it is composed are
carefully selected—none but tbe host quality
being used. By these means the high repu
tation which the Pain Killer has long since
acquired is, at all times, triumphantly sus
tained. In view of these facts, wo are by
no means surprised to learn that Messrs.
Davis &, Son’s sales arc constantly and
rapidly increasing. While we congratulate
our friends generally that ?o valuable a
preparation as the Pain Killer is placed
within their reach, we must be permitted to
rejoice at tbo well-merited success of its
liberal and enterprising proprietor.—Provi
