Two Dangerous Seasons.
Spring and fall are times when
so many people get sick. The
changes in the weather are severe
on feeble persons, even those
naturally strong are apt, as they
say, “to be feeling miserable.’
Than they are just in condition to
be struck down with some kind of
fever A bottle or two of Parker's
Tonic will invigorate the digestion,
put the liver, kidneys and blood in
perfet order, and prevent more
serious attacks Why suffer, and
perhaps die, when so simple a med
icine will save you? Good for both
sexes and all ages.

Washington Letter.
WASHfNGTUN, D. C.. < )ct. 5,1 885.
To the Editor of the Times.
The whole Missouri delegation
in Congress has been here this
week to look after the Federal
patronage in that State. Tlmj
principal fight is over the St. Low
Mr. Wm. Hyde
seems to have the inside track,
although Mr. John G. Priest is
hacked by the sage of Grainercy
Park, and • “Uncle Sammy” has
great influence with the Adminis
tration,notwithstanding the explod
ed story of of the rupture between
himself and the President. Mr.
Dockery of the delegation, whois
always putting in a good stroke
for his constituents, was seen
around the office of the Indian com
missioner, and no doubt carried
away encouraging news to some
worthy applicant who has no fear
of bloodthirsty icdskins.
A necessity lor the reorganize
tion of the Bureau of Statistics has
existed for some time, and it is now
proposed to submit a plan to Cons
gross at the coming session which,
if adopted, will extend the useful
ness of the Bureau and raise its
importance, besides saving money
to the Government. The name
will be changed to the Bureau ot
Commerce, and provisions will be
made for obtaining greater accur
acy in the statistics of immigration
and in getting more accurate re
turns of our exports , especially to
Canada and Mexico. The taking
of the census,which has of late years
called for such large appropriaitons
from Congress and been stretched
out from the completion of one to
the time for taking another, will
be placed under the new Bureau,
whence will result in an immense
saving compared with the cost of
the last cenus.
Society leaders are already ex
ercising their minds over the ques
tion whether the President in.
tends to indulge in those little re
spites from routine duties, which
go to make up the pleasures of a
winter’s sojourn in Washington.
The assembled beauty, intelligence,
refinement and grace of manners
and social customs to be found
here in the diplomatic corps of all
foreign nations, and in the families
of our own Representatives and
Senators and Cabinent officers, all
combine to make our winters the
most enjoyable to be spent in any
city in th° world. The coming
social season promises to be as bril
liant as any that has ever followed
a change in Administration, and
they are always mote brilliant
than others. It matters not what
party is in power the social world
enjoys life all the same and knows
no politics. The Republican, the
Democrat, the Green backer, the
Prohibitionist, all meet on the
same platform and move in the
same sphere, and for tne time for
get that they are opposed to one
another in anything, and seem to
have nothing in view but to con
tribute to the common happiness
of all. Such is the social life at
the Capital from December till
May.
The Postmaster General has
just decided that the salaries of
post-office employees cannot be
attached for debt, on the ground
that the salaries must be regarded
as United States funds until the
money actually passes from the
possession of the Government into
the hands of the employees. The
decision is a very important one,
and was made in a case submitted
by the New’ York office, where a
creditor attempted to garnishee the
salaries of certain employees in
that office.
Gen. Logan is again in the city
looking hearty and cheerful, and
is busily engaged in seeing that his
house on Columbian Heights,
recently purchased by him, is put
in order for the hospitality which
he and Mrs. Logan will dispense,
the coming season. The General
delivered an address at the G. A.
R. Grant memorial service Thurs
day evening at the Metropolitan
M. E. Church, where Gen. Grant
attended while President. Prof.
Bischoff,the renowned blind organ
ist,piesided at the o r gan,and the St.
Cecelia quartette furnished the
music. The church was crowded
to overflowing, and a letter from
the President was read, expressing
his sincere regret at not being able
to join in the services because of
official engagements which could
not be postponed.
The resignation of Mr. Jacobs,
the assistant supervising architect
of the Treasury, is loooked upon
as the forerunner of the resigna
tion of his chief, Mr. Bell. Dis
satisfaction with Mr. Bell’s meth
ods has existed for sone time past,
and it is understood that he will
hand in his resignation as soon his
successor is decided on. This is
one of the most important positions
under the Government, as the
supervising architect has the pres
paration of the plans and the
control of the work in constructing
and reparing all the Government
buildings throughout the country.
I notice that the coi respondent
of a leading New York daily has
been attacking the Interior Depart,
mentin severe terms lately. There
is no department of the Govern-
ment better managed than the In
terior. Sovsehiry Lamar knows
the needs of that branch • J the
Government service, and is minis
tering to, them in the best man
ncr possible, and where any evil i$
to be rooted out applies the remedy
with dpcisiven -The storv s
’a front a prominent official lying in
the corridors maudlin dru-ik. and
the Secretary having a dread of
hurting tire feelings of old ring
officials, are wild fancies of the
dbrosphn dent’s mind, without any
foundation in fact. The Secrctarv
is not the sort of am m to c tins
enanee such conduct on the part
of any official under him, and lias
too much force of character to
hesitate an instant in condemning
a wrong and removing the cause
of it when found. Every man
that knows the Secretary knows
the truth of this.
Another official that has come
under the ban of the same imagin
ative writer is Commissioner of
Patents, Montgomery. This gen
tleman is charged with evading
civil service law by transferring
employees from certain duties to
others for the purpose of making
vacancies -for favorite appointees.
The Commissioner of Patents has
always exercised the prerogative of
making such disposition of his
force with reference to the duties
to be performed as will, in his
judgment, be productive of the
most good to the service, and the
present commissioner has done
nothing more than what, all the
others before him have done. This
right has never before been ques
tioned in any bureau officer. Mr.
Montgomery vzas selected for the
position he holds because of his em
inence as a lawyer, and was chosen
by the President of his own free
will without any solicitation on the
part of Mr. Montgomery or any of
his friends in his behalf tor the
position, and it is safe to say that
the President has no cause to
regret his selection. Every man
of positive character and independ
ence of thought and action makes
enemies because of those emmend
ablo traits, and Mr. Montgomery
is no exception to the rule.
Lesson From a M astodon
The tusks of a mastodon recent
ly found in Illinois weighed 175
pounds each. What a gigantic
toothache that animal must have
been capable of having! And such
neuralgia! Neuralgia, or nerve
ache, generally proceeds from a
disordered condition of the blood.
Brown’s Iron Bitters enriches
and purifies this and drives non
ralgia out. Mr. W. W. Redman,
Piqua, ()., says, “Brown’s Iron
Bitters permanently cured me of
neuralgia.
Obituary.
Sarah C. Hamrick, wife of Gil
lam A. Hamrick, departed this
life, after an illness of three weeks,
of Typhoid fever, on Monday the
21st Sept. 1885.
The deceased was a daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. Pleasant Levons, and
a grand daughter of C. W. Griffin,
late deceased. The subject of
this notice was born in Carroll
county on the 22nd day of March
1864 and was consequently 21
years and six months old.
From a child she was kind, obe
dient and goed matured.
At a very early age she was
converted to Christ, and was bap
tized into the fellowship of the
Baptist church at Carrollton, by
Rev. W. W. Roop. Her parents
moving away she put her letter in
and became a member at Aba
line, and continued a faithful and
consistent member, until death
called her to the “higher church
above” The deceased was mar
ried to G. A. Hamrick Sept. 4th
1881.
She leaves a sorrowing husband,
and a host of relatives and friends,
to mourn her untimely death, be
sides one little girl not quite three
vears old.
Although in the prime and bloom
of youth, she was perfectly resign
ed, and willing to leave kindred
and friends, husband and child,
father and mother, and all things
else, to be away with Jesus.
Her last words were to her de
voted husband, “Giliam make
haste to come to me,”
Husband, you are bowed under
a weight of sorrow; you r angel
wife is basking in the sun light, of
God’s love, and spending an end
less eternity in the presence of
Him to whose glory and honor she
sings Hosannas of praise forever.
As far as consolation may come
to your relief in your dire misfor
tune, may you find it in the blessed
word of inspiration, “Blessed are
the dead which die in the Lord,
from henceforth; yea, saith the
spirit,’that they may rest from their
labor; ard their works do follow
them.”—Rev. 14 chap. 13th verse.
