been received a fresh assortment of
Bibles at the Depository in Wayne:- i
boro. All who wish to purchase Bibles
can do so by applying at the store of
Mr. Jethro Thomas. Bibles may be

A Curb for Chills.—The celebrated
“Baily Pilh” certainly have the pre
eminence as an antidote in eases ot
chill* and fevers, in all the malarious
districts, where they have had a trial.
Two boxes are warranted to cure any

of medical compounds put up at (he North and
elsewhere. Many of those medicines have had
their day, and we boar no mure of them. Their
proprietors have made fortunes, not so much from
thecurative powers Ami virtues of their mixtures,
as from the no oriety given them by advertising,
by which people were male to bolieve all the
ghod that was said of thorn A preparation is
now before the public, which is becoming very
popular, and is known as Ural field’s Female
Regulator, put up by L. H. Bradfield, of Atlanta,
Ga., at 21.50 per bottle. Sueh is its curative
virtues that it has gained wide-spread populari
ty all over the country whete it has been made
known, and it is being introduced everywhere.
We arc informed that immense quantities of this
medicine arc being sold in all sections ef the
South and Southwest, especially in the 'city of
Now Orleans and in Texas. This muMi wc say
in justice to its proprietor, who is .a gentleman
of integrity, and who would not engage in the
manufacture and sale of a humbug. —LaOrange

Mrs. Lkk and Arlington-.— The !
Washington Chronicle having announced
that Mr?. It. E. Lee had “an agent em
ployed in Waehinton courting the local
press and correspondents of outside jour
nals” to manipulate the newspapers in
behalf of her claims to the Arlington
estate, Gen. Fitzhugh Lee has written
a letter denying the statement, and as
serting that all newspaper articles on
the subject were without the connivance
or knowledge ot Mrs. Lee. Gen. Lee
adds: “Such published declarations as
yours I regard as unfortunate, not as
detracting from the character of Mre.
Loe, but as tending to rekindle bad
feelings between the two seotions of the
country, lately at war, the one against
the other, aud of retarding the era of
peace and fellowship devoutly desired
by soldiers and citizens of both sections,
living once more in a common country .”
—The Chronicle says that the statement
was made on an inference from the con
duct of a professod-friend of Mrs. Lee.

The Modern African Servant.—
A lady friend informed us, that a color

of cook, hearing that she needed one of
those valuable auxiliaries to house keep

was engaged, the wages decided upon.
The “new” cook then requested to be
shown the room she was to occupy.—
The lady piloted her to the basement
and pointed out a very comfortable
apartment, though not a commodious
one. The colored damsel viewed the
promises carefully, and then shaking
her head dubiously said, if that was the
only room that could be given her, she
didn’t think she could stay. The lady,
in surprise, inquired why ? when the
accomplished cook replied, that the
room was not large enough to accom
modate her “piano and sewing machine,”
and she left. This is an actual occur

“There arc a good many dogs at Long'

but for some strange cause there are
never so many dogs to be seen in the

ment it is immediately surrounded by
dogs of every breed and persuasion. At
one time to-day I saw no less than
seven dogs all following his carriage at
once. It must be that some magnetic
influence lured them on, for no more
than three dogs are over seen following
anybody else.”

Fraudulently Packed Cotton.t—
The committee on credits of tho New

of all persons connected with tho trans
action, and intend to send circulars
throughout the country exposing the
parties. This policy will be pursued
bereaficr in every case that
The parties who are guilty of the frauds
will be published to tho world. A
large amount of this fraudulently pack

What it Costs Congressmen in
Washington. —Here arc the house
rents of some of the great magnates
who cannot live without the addition of
back pay: Mr. Boutwell, board for
self and family, $l4O a month; Senator
Sargent, of California, house rent SI,OOO
per annum ; Mu. Morrill, of Maiuc, uew
house, cost $14,000, or about S9OO a
year; Henry Wilson, Vice President,'
boarded at the Washington House for
many years at the rate of S7O n month ;
ditto Bringlinm; Mr. Douglass, Com
missioner of Internal Revenue, pays
$1,200 a year house rent, furnished;
John Sherman boards at Hamilton
House, with wife, for SIBO a.month. —
The average Congressman spends in
Washington city, during the year, about
$4,000; ard nearly all tho Eastern and
part of the Western members save and
take home about $2,000 per annum.—
Men like Chandler, Stockton, Hooper
and Steward spend probably $12,000 to
$20,000 per annum, but. are exceptions.

A cloud is casting its dark shadows
over the State of Missouri. The peo
ple of tiat State, like those of Illinois
and Indiana, are demanding investiga-.
tiori into the manner in which certain
railroad securities were changed from
one form to another, and tho Kansas
City Times, with the view of makiug a
against tire Republican party
which was in 1868, in the Missouri
State government, says that Missouri
bad previous to this time guaranteed
some §23,000 000 for certain railroads,
but that State was secured by first
mortgages on all the property owned
by these railroads, and fully worth the
amount which had been guaranteed by
the State. In 1868 a “Ring” was
formed which succeeded in changing
this accured guaranteAf §23,000,000
into one absoluto debt of §18,000,000,
without any security whatever—which
appears to have been a close imitation
of Credit Mobilicr tactics in Union
Pacific. Tho Time s charges that it cost
just §200,000 *to buv the Legislature
over to do the job. The validity of
the legislation of 1868 is to be tested
before the Supreme Court of the State.
