Almost a Fire.—Last Saturday Mrs. i
Revill tound the roof ot au out boose near '
tbe kitchen on Are, while a very high wind
prev&iitng at the time carried the tames
towards this dwelling, distant only obeut 80
s*et Mr. Revill being at tbe printing office
tue labor of stopping the tame* devolved
upon Mrs. R. and tbe .took, Tbe lady,
with remaknbfe presence ol mind, shouted
fire a tew times, and sending her little
daughter to the front gate to ciy the alarm,
she dispatched the aorta to the well for
water, running heraelf to the smokehouse
l to obtain a large ladder that she remember
ed was there. On her way she caught (be
yard-dog—e very severe mastiff—and con
fined him in the kennel, in order that the
coast might be clear for the entrance of
suck friends as name to her snristanoe,—
In tbe metalline the cook had succeeded
a throwing a backet of water upon the
Oamea that Retrained their progress temp
orarily. —i-
Wbile Mrs. Revill and the cook were
eitWßliag with the ladder, Messrs- Peary,
Keller and MJ Banning appeared up.® tbe
scene, followed by the people of tbe entire
village. The tomes were qutohiy sabdimd
of waier and tße tearing ofl bl some
-hingtee. The editor of the Vuiihcatok
now appeared piel in time to thank bis
assembled friends for their promptness in
respond mg tohw wtfirt siann. Being in
formed of hie wife’s prompt movements in
ibe mailer, the. editor publicly thanked bis
la.ly and excused Kiryaelf for ids tardy
arrival, and ail was quiet again.
TTie lire originated I iota a spark from the
ktichcn chiuuu-y, and but for its opportune
discovery every building on tbe iol would
have been consumed in a abort time.
We bate never eeuu any people nfore
prompt in turning out on au alarm of fire,
than Uie litixcus of Greenville. Mra Revill
noticed one young man, Mr Frank Ban
ning, who came up vvifli a slack of buckets,
a d#mt or more in number. Oapt. Shuttles

Odflai by the bawl, with the amurauoe that
It believed In him, whether anybody el*
did or not It was a very touching exhibi
tion. Republics ere no*—no, they are not
ungrateful. Mr. Odlax responded with
much feeling to tbe reception
tee,
He said be had been persecuted by a
rnaiieiotn and vindictive prem; and he
forgave a reporter of the Chicago Time*
with so much genuine emotion that the
crowd of Booth Bend people who bed in
vited nJm fa “rad In this bosom" went
bowling round M little eddies and gusts of
passion, looking far somebody connected
with tbe Chicago Times to breiae and laoe
rate, and Dually decended In taatafimenta
oe tbe bridge of the wrong mao’* note,
leaving that feature in a pulpy *nd w
goioeoo* state. It wae one of tbe remark
able teat urea ei the ftouth Bend demoostra-
Hoa, that as anoo at Mr. Colfax fargav* the
Chicago Times man the excited dtiaea*
nanßrnfad a deaire to puaCt the Times

[*tr and beauty oi a forgiving spirit it
is nut strange that the Booth Bend new*

with a confident prediction that Jb. C )Uu
would tome time be President of Ihe
United Btatea.

Tugged in outline, eruptive ef^mamoranda

Tbe bone* oI oe of the most eolighten
ed statxvmrn in th* country lay Wearhing !
at his door, and the wangled forma ef
several others had been picked np these
and sent hom.i to their friends.
But North Easton knew he wae an boa
eat man, and welcomed him without auk
l lug whether it war murder in the degree
'or justifiable homicide he stood charged
with. Human testimony against the man
who owns the town and ia worth several
million dollars is a thing the people of
Nort h Easton will hot allow themselves to
be fooled with. North Easton wae hilari
ous It offered its returning slalsman not
wordi and compliments alone; It fed him a
substantial and bountiful repeat, until de
votees and divinity hedged with satiety and
glowed with emotions of gratitude and
pride Then Dr. Cogswell—Doctor wheth
er of medicine, law, or divinity, veterinari
an or chiropodist, we blush to my we
know not—welcomed the ohkf, as “that
noblest work of God, an honest naan," end
concluded with a sentiment to the effect
that, "like gold from the crucible, he had
passed the fiery ordeal and come out purer
wad brighter."
It wee a sentiment worthy the hour, the
occasion and the hero; and of oouree Urn
hue rose with one hand ia hie pocket and
responded like a statesmen and financier.
He had bribed nobody. He might have
asked with Samuel the prophet, "Whom
have I defrauded f whom hove I oppress
edf dr of whose head have I received any
bribe to blind mine eye* therewith r—but
he didn't He was not there with conun
drums. What he did any wae that he had
sold SIO,OOO of stock member* of Congress
and that they had lied about it, or words
to that effect The ettixeus of North Eas
ton were gratified beyond measure at this
statement, and applauded vehemently.
Afterward, distinguished speaker* from
abroad among whom was Mr. Charles W.
Black of the Boston Commonwealth, who
has been all abioad lor some time deliver
ed panegyrical* the life and character of
Ht: Oakes Ames, while that gentleman sal
at ihe head of the table, behind a rosebud
and blushed. Thens poem wsa rend, aud
the assembly broke op ih a kind of gush of
good feeling
Both tbe South Bend and the North
Easton demonstrations show on tlie part of
the people s gratefol appreciation of their
representatives. There is just a taint flavor
of competition between them in so far a*
this, that Mouth Bend welcomed Mr. Col
fax because Oakes Ames had lied abou!
him ; and In this vein of |>artlal rivalry It
must be confessed that, while South Bend
seems to have bad longer address** and
more liras* bands, North Easton is ahead
by a dinner and a poem, neither of which
Mr. Collax received. Possibly Mr. Ames
keeps a poet.
But leaving out these considerations of
personal rivaliy, how gratifying it la to Ihe
true American heart to see greater an h I
goodness appreciated and set store by such
sort of simultaneously at widely separated
point* These entertainment* are highly
encouraging, only it occur* to us that noth
ing lias Wu done for Mr. Biooks. No
body has madua a|m*oh, Or dedicated a
poem to him, or offered him a public din

“and what is very remarkable, the clothes

Mb. Brarwamt—The Oregon Herald,
noticing the stood on a# Mr. tephens to

INDIAN BITTERS.
When I moved to Polk County leM
Spring, I noticed * great demud lor a pat
ent medicine called
- - * ~i
UOBB’S INDIAN BITTERS,
which wa* curing a graat many caeea ol
diflsrent dlioasea. My wife being sfßicteil
with a throat and stomach disease, I pre
vailed on her to buy a bottle and it entirely
cured her. This and other casea induced
me to purchase the right to make and sell
live medicine in this county. In putting
this medicine before tbs people ot Meri
wether County, I feel assured that I am not
palming off a humbug and offer no lalsc
Inducements; for with a lair trial and a
clone adherence to the proscriptions, It will
cure the worat cases of chills and lever, no
matter of how long standing, and remove
all the effects attending the same. It will
cum Syphilis, Bcrofola, Diarrhea, Dropey
Eruptions ol the Skin ; Is om of tho beat
Liver Regulators now in use, and will cure
Female Diseases such as Irregular Men
atruatloa. Ulceration of tbe Womb, Wklte
-8 welling of the legs and foot, Hick Head
ache, General Weakness, Ac. These Bit
ters were patented la June, 1958, end have
stood the test of the teat twelve years, both
Miiong lb* whites, and for an unknown
number of years among the Cherokee In
diana. They mV be token with Impunity
under say circumstances, being composed
entirely of root# aud bark*.
Tliti medicine will be deposited et every
public pleoe to the county. Directions are
given ee the label which will aeeompaey
each bottle, but If the medicine nets 100
heavily, reduce the dose, if not sufficiently,
increase tha'dose. It should move the bow
els once or twice a day.
When I moved beck to this oouety test
fell, I found my mother hi very bed health
keeping %m bed n gaod pertiou of her time
for nine months, frequently calling is Dr.
Twrsll. She commenced earn*
