—Senator Bayard writes from Carlsbad, in

England ‘as the essential mater in tho im

establiahed for the use by the whole world
of silver as money.* Mr. Bayard, we learn,
intimates that the opinion is in Germany that
Prince Bismarck, in H. talk with Judge
Kelley, wu rather disposed to (krf that
eminent statesman, for his own amusement,
and did in fact get a good deal of fan oat of
him in a quiet, indirect .way, Mr. Bayard
thinks that Mr. Killy’s notion that the Uni
ted States ought to give np troubling them,
selves about European business and go In
for an alliance with the Chinese and the
Sandwich Islanders is 'quite worthy of the

28,009 in a total vote of 112,000—a majority
equivalent to 260,000 in New Fork, which in
a total vole of 90,000, gave a Bepnblioia
majority cf 32,000— equivalent to over 233,-
000 in Ohio, which in 1878, in a total vote of

♦a* Republicans this yeat lack about 2,500

It is a terrible disappointment to me, and I
fear that my Presidential prospeots will be
greatly Impaired, owing to the inability of
the Bspnhlioans, after an unparalleled ex
penditure of money, to secure an absolute
Igajottty of the popular yote in Heine.'
Congress and the Railroads.
The Herald of Thursday, tpeaking
the action of the Chamber of Commeroe
drawing the attention of the presidents
of the New York Central and Erie roads
the necessity of some congressional
action to regulate traffic on the great
through railway 1 inea, leaves no doubt
that this action waa fully concurred
in by these two railways themselves.
The developments made in the recent in
veatigation at Albany before a commit
tee of the New York Legislature, the
Herald says, were sufficient to intensify
popular discontent and to inflame it to
indignation. The time has come for a
thorough and comprehensive reorganizv
tion of the railroad service; and in view
of the diversity and conflict of interests
which exists among the different roads
Congress cannot much longer postpone
the doty incumbent upon it under its
constitutional authority to “regulate
commerce between the States.’
While the attempts to reduce local
rates to the same price as through rates
is absurd, Injurious discriminations made
in local rates and between different par
ties must be prohibited and the roads
themselves must be rescued from their
own destructive and cut-throat rivalry.
The attempts to agree among them
selves end in nothing substantial. All
anch agreements are soon rendered nu
gatory by bad faith and underhand cut
ting of rates agreed oo. Tne Herald
says that recently these failures to regu
late freights by joint action have led the
roads to try a now experiment. They
have jointly appointed a commission of
arbitration, consisting of experts, who
are to atndy railroad questions and adju
dicate differences which may arise be
tween the roads. The gentlemen selec
ted are Charles Francis Adams, Jr., Da
vid A. Wells and John A. Wright, who
are to reoeive liberal salaries and sur
render their time to the subjects which
may from tims to time be submitted to
them. It is understood that in contro
versies between the roads their decisions
are to be final.
This arrangement points in the right
direction, and it is very well so fares it
goes. But how are these experts to en-
force their awardb? If the roads should
prove as faithless to this engagement as
they have been to their ocmpacts on the
sabjeca of freights it is difficult to see
how, in the absence of law, they can have
any remedy against one another. The
idea of a commission is excellent; bat it
shonld be a commission created by the
law and olothed with authority. In En
gland there is such a commission appoint
ed by tho government and invested with
adequate powers to make its action and
its decisions legally binding—a commie-
aion which not merely protects the rail
roads against each other, bnt protects
the publio against nnjuat discriminations
by tho roads. We believe the time has
come when Congress must take this sub
ject in hand in a spirit of equity towards
all parties concerned.
THU GEORGIA PRESS.
Th* WsaTHEB, xro.—The snllea clouds
of Saturday Indicated the possible ap
proxch of one of those sportive efforts of
nature called a line storm; bnt the
promise was not so lively as on tho Sat'
nrday before, and yet it was then fol
lowed by a bright Sunday. The soil re
mains, this Saturday night, extremely
dry and du3ty, and vegetation is turning
to the sere and yellow leaf very last.
Yet we are informed there was a lively
rain not far from Macon on the line of
tho Brunswick railroad last Friday after
noon.
The nights have not been so oool the
past week as the week before; but it is
not improbable with the next rainfall we
shall have a lower temperature. The
drouth has produced some malarial slok-
nesa about the country, but, as a whole,
there is less than usual at this season of
the year.
Cotton has been moving lively the
past week, but it will possibly be check
ed by the sudden decline in the market.
The crop will be shorter than is gener
ally supposed, and with an early frost,
it will be qnite short. Appearances,
however, indicate that as usual the
Northern buyers will take the orop at
their own price, and the true inwardness
of the situation will not be apparent be
fore next May or June.
As to Fe03T.—An old planter of Mon
roe who was renewing his paper yesterday
rated that be had a frost record at boms
kept by his father and himself sinoe 1833,
and which bore out the theory that the
first log in Angnst Indicated the date of
a killing frost in October. This year the
first tog in Angnst occurred on the first
day of that month, and therefore he ex
pected a killing frost on the first day of
October next. We do not see the phi
losophy of his rale, bnt if a killing frost
comes this year on the 1st day of October
we can understand that there will be
some excitement in the cotton markets.

Cotton asd Meat Mabkets.—There
is agitation in both jnst sow owiDg
mainly to the devices of Western and
Northern operators. Meat has gone up

An Old Family.
The correspondent of the New York
Herald, with 'Genera! Grant, intersperses
his account of the ex-President’s inter
view with the Emperor of Japan, by some
family reminiscences, as follows:
The circumstance that an ex-President
of the United States shonld converse
with the chief of a friendly nation, is not
in itself an important work. Bat when
yon consider the position of the Emperor
among his subjects, the traditions of his
house and his throne, yon will see the
vaine of this meeting and the revolution
it makes in the history of Japan. The
imperial family is in desoent, the most
ancient In ths world. It goes back in
direct line to 660 years before Christ. For
more than twenty-five centuries this line
has continued unbroken, and the
present sovereign is the 123d of
his line. The position of Mikado has
always been unique in Japan. For cen
turies the emperors lived in seclusion at
Kijoto. The Mikade was a holy being.
No one was allowed to look upon his face.
He had no family name, beoaoae his dy
nasty being unending he needed none.
Daring his hfe he waa revered as a god.
When he died he waa translated into the
celestial presence. ' Within ten yeara it
was not proper that even his sacred
name shonld be spoken. That is now
permitted, bnt even now yon cannot bay
a photograph of the Mikado. It la not
proper that his subjects shonld look
npon his faoe. When he first received a
foreign ambassador (in 1SS6) his Prime
Minister knelt qj his aide while his no
bles sat around on mats where they oonld
not see him.

The Constitution of jeaterday ha* the
following:
The proceedings In the general assem
bly were exceedingly interesting, cot to
say sensational. In tho Senate the im
peachment trial of Comptroller Goldsmith
was closed by the delivery of a written
sentence by the chief justloe. A large
crowd gathered to hear the sentence pro
nounced. Before the sentence, Judge
Hopkins delivered an impressive speech,
giving the 'reasons why Goldsmith tad
tendered his resignation—stating that as
tbe osse developed that he bad been be
trayed by men in his office. He stated
also that be was anthorized to say by his
client that he did not reoollect any
such conversation aa 8enator Hol
combe had alluded to in his speech
of the day before. The reading of
the gentenoe waa heard in eileuoe.
Aa Jadge Warner’s voice ceased,
with the close of the dreadful sentence,
the High Court of Impeachment conven
ed for the trial of Washington It Gold
smith, passed out of existences After the
oourt had adjourned, the Senate went on
with its business, and before the hoar of
one had arrived, had disposed of all the
Legislative busiresa before it- It will be
seen from this that the Senate ha3 kept
np with the business of the House, be
sides carrying on the impeachment trial.
In tbe House the special order of the
day was the consideration of the. reports
on John W. Nelms, the Principal Keeper
of the Penitentiary. The sensation of
the morning was the fierce attack made
npon ex-Governor Brown by Mr. Gar
rard, ‘ in which he reviewed in a
truculent manner the story of the trial
of the Columbus prisoners, and referring
to Governor Brown’s allusion to the com
mittee as a star-chamber, taid that the
days of the sweat-box recalled the worst
type of a star-chamber. His allusion to
Governor Brown as “a mean anODymons
writer in a city paper” created a sensa
tion. Mr. Walters followed in denuncia
tion of Governor Brown, beingvdmost as
bitter as HIT. Garrard. The sensation of
the afternoon was the introduction by
Mr. Humber,of a resolution blaming Gov.
Colquitt for not interfering in the matter
of NelmB contract. Tbis resolution created
the intensest excitement, and was tbe uni
versal topic of conversation. It will be
tbe leadmg question this morning, and
there are rnmors of sharp cross-firing,
and some interesting work. There is no
doabt that the resolution was a severe
shook to moat of the members of the
House,'and the almost universal impres
sion wsb ibat the .House would not sus
tain it, in either letter or spirit. The de
bate promises to be lively in the extreme
this morning, and the vote will be a decis
ive one.
Mr. Humber’s resolution is as fol
lows:
dissolved, That this honse pronounces
its unqualified oensnre on the action of
John W. Nelms, prinoipal keeper of the
Georgia peoitentiary in making a private
contract with the leases of the convicts of
aaid penitentiary to deliver said oonviots
to them at a certain price per capita and
in enforcing the same contrary to law;
bnt it being shown to tbe House by the
evidenoe in this case that his excellency,
the Governor, having been pnt in posses
sion of aU the facts (by Judge John L.
Hopkins,) as to tbe demands of said prin
cipal keeper to have paid to him by cer
tain lessees a given amount of money,
against whioh they entered their solemn
protest, and as ho refused to Interfere,
therefore he indirectly, if not direotly,
approved said action aDd is responsible
for tbis wrong and unlawful procedure of
said officer.
Wi also find in the Constitution the fol
lowing oopy of the official sentence pro-
nonneed in the Goldsmith case :

Whereas, it appears from the record of
the trial bad in the above stated case now
before the court, that the defendant waB
guilty of the charges contained in the
first, third, fonrtb,flftb, tenth, thirteenth,
and seventeenth articles of the impeach
ment preferred against him by the House
of representatives,and was found not guil
ty of the aharges contained in the other ar
ticles: whereupon It ia considered, ordered
and adjudged by the high court of im
peachment of the State of Georgia, now
here, that tbe defendant, the said W. L.

We make this extract from a Macon
letter in the Angosta Newt:
The rnnniag and trotting at the State
and North Georgia Fairs will undoubted
ly be very exciting and speedy, with
many entries, even though no horses
are brought from other Slates. Past
experience has taught ns that racing,
with all Us claimed objections, is the
chief attraction for the masses. I have
thereto: e taken some pains daring my
travels, to learn what iB to be expected—
what horses are in training.
In this oity I find several very promis
ing trotting and running animals—sev
eral whose record last fall was as low as
2:41 and 2:43, that have been doing ad
mirably well. Indeed, Madam Eumor
tells some astonishing stories as to the
tims made by them in private trials.
John Marr, who brought oat the cele
brated Bismarck, has in training Lucy
Jim, a green blaze-faced black mare; a
sorrel horse owned by a patty in Fort
Valley, one of the finest two year olds in
the South, and Mr. Plant’s young horse
John M., a finp, clever well formed ani
mal. As he has never ye. appeared in
a race, his time is unknown, but it is
generally conceded that he can make
2:45 on a good track. He is one of the
dark ones. Mr. Plant lite3 a good
horse, bnt is not inolined to enter nis
horses in races. Mr. Marr will have
charge of him at the several fairs. Mr.
Cook, that drove Basil Duke and the
speedy gray horse, Sand Hill, for two
seasons so successfully, m now handling
Mr. Anderson's splendid five year old
coif, Electric. His breeding,' open gait
acd perfect form makes him a valuable
horse. In time he shonld trot at least
in the twenties. Mr. O. also has tbe
late Clint Taylor’s horse. Stranger, and
several other speedy ones, all of which
are expected to show what they can do
m the circnit including, Griffin, Albany,
Mscon, Atlanta, Ac. I have also learned
that there are two very fast trottera at
Bavnesville, the young stallion, Gold
Dust, and Smuggler. There are also
two at Americas, one at Forsyth, three
at Griffin, including the old reliable stal
lion John Kembali Jackson, and it has
been hinted to me that the Bheumatic
Spide was not sold np North, but wiU
put in an appearance at Atlanta and Ma
con.
The Atlanta correspondent of the An-
guita News writes that agents “of the
Police Gaselte have been trying for three
weeks past to obtain a photograph of
Comptroller Goldsmith, bnt have failed
so far. They have, however, a picture of
Colonel Eenfroe, and it will be present
ed next weak, in connection with a full
history of the “high crimes and misde
meanors.”

There is nob perhaps in the entire
State an institution of learning that has
and is accomplishing 03 much good as
Dablonega College. The following facts
so kindly tarnished ns by the accommo
dating Secretary of the Faculty, Major
Joseph Garrard, will bear ns ont in tuts
assertion.
Since the passage of the law some
three years ago, authorizing it, 191 cer
tificates to teach have been issued. Oat
of this number it is reasonable to sup
pose that seventy-five are now engaged
in teaching. The blank reports sent ont
for the purpose, show an average attend
ance for each teacher of fifty-nine
scboloaro. which makes a grand total of
4,425 pupils! This number, it will be re
membered, is exclusive of a great many
who are being taught by students who
left this College and received their license
from the County School Commissioners,
previous to tbe passage of tha act store
referred to. Up to the morning of tbe
16tb in-t.. 142 students had entered for
tbe Fall Term. This number represents
four State-. Tnirty-eight ‘ counties in
Georgia being represented.
Tbas it will be Been that no college in
the State—not even oar venerable mother
at Athena, with seventy yeurs the start of

The Sparta Times and Planter has the
following notice of a recent visit to David
Dickson’s farm in Hancock county:
Considering the season, his crops are
really splendid. We saw ono fifty-acre
fisld of cotton that was beautiful to be
hold. Traly waa it “white to the har
vest” Most of the ootton wa open and
being rapidly gathered. Thirty bales is
• low estimate for the field—indeed forty
does not seem to os extravagant. His
corn is the finest we have seen—that un
der his immediate enpervision being a
real good crop for any year.
Mr. Dickson very reasonably expects
to gather from eleven to twelve hundred
bales of cotton this season. One year he
gathered 1,500 bales from the same
lends and Mr. Worthen thinks at least
two hundred were lost in the fields for
lack of time to save it. There is an un
usual amount of sickness in this neigh
borhood. We were sorry to find Mr.
Dickson and Mr. Worthen, his nephew,
both unwell.

This estimable lady had been suffering
some weeks, bnt not until a abort time
previous to her death did her many
friends consider her malady dangerons,
although her sufferings has been intense,

After all, we way station telegraph op
erators are 'not without onr little bit of
romance occasionally, and I think that 1
can show that wo are not entirely withont
a certain amount of responsibility; bnt
it ia seldom if ever reoogmzed, unless one
of our number by oarlessness, plunges a
tiain in destruction by failing to deliver
orders. The time of whicn £ write was
one pleasant afternoon in autumn, the
22ud day of September, 1876, and as the
oocurenoe has made a deep impression on
mv mind, I cannot forget the day, which
was Friday. At that tims I had been an
agent and operator on tbe railroad
a little while over two months. The line
was directly through p iris of Indiana,and
Illinois, end some of cue stations had no
telegraph office, consequently tbe order
distance was somewhat lengthy, aad
there was bnt one office between mine and
Cowans, twelve miles west.
On this day I wob quietly puffing my
meerschaum in the little bay window of
my office, and wishing for something to
relieve the monotony, when the operator
at Cowans called the train dispatcher and
paid an engine had sprang her throttle
with 140 pounds of steam and gone east
while the fireman had gone to iuneb; and
the engineer, who was oiling around, had
no time to get on. AU was still as death
for a minute, when the dispatchers began
to call G—, ths only office between mine
and Cowans; for fail five minutes he
called him, using the signal “23,”
whiah means death, bnt still
answer, and still the monotonous click
of the armature; presently he answered
in a dazed, burned manner, and when
asked about the engine, said it had pass
ed there at a fearful rate of speed at 4:14,
with no person visible. It was only sir
miles more to me, and an excursion
was bn its way with a heavy load oi
tired picnickers, and had aotually left
a station only eight miles east of me, the
first telegraph office, at two minutes past
four.
Ths dispatcher called me farionsly,
and being at hand and expectant, I an
swered him immediately, when be said:,
‘ Torn jour swiioh and wreck engine No.-
11, going east wildI replied quiokly,
“I cannot withont an indemnity order,”
and atter a hasty consultation with the
superintendent, as I afterwards learned,
he went ahead with an order, whose unu
sual torm and wording aronsed many a
lezv “orass-eonader” from a doze. It
wa3 like this:
To operator: Wreck wild Engine
No. 11 at yonr eastern switch gate to save
collision. Company will defend and up
hold yon. “D. E. B.”
I immediately returned my “13” or
understanding,” received my “correct
at 4.18 p. m,” and turned to look for
the eDgine, when, although the conver
sation between myself and the dispatch
er had consumed bnt four minutes, I saw
her ooming at the greatest rate of speed
I ever witnessed, and enatching my or
der I ran to the switch gate, about 150
feet, and when I hsd unlocked and
thrown the rail, the roaring monster
was only abont ICO feet awav. I had
my wa'.oi in my hand* and stepped
quickly back out of harm’s way, wnen
at exactly twenty minutes past four she
went over, and such an unearthly crash I
hope I may never see or hear again.
Tbe dirt and stones flew fifty feet in ths
air, the engine turned clear over and
stopped on her side, pushing a splinter
of the cab on the wnistle valve, and there
she lay a seething, .hissing mats of rub
bish.
Bnt above the din and rattle I heard
one wild, despairing shriek for help, and
when I could get close enough to see any
thing, I founts what, had it not been for
the face, wonld never have been recog
nized as a man in the crashed and bleed
ing mats that lay under one hnge driver;
bnt the face waa withont a scar and by
that was recognized ss an escaped mad
man, who, it seems, had climbed on the
engine at Cowans unobserved, and pall
ing the throttle open had started on a
wild, awful ride to the gates of death.
When the excatsion train came np ten
minntes later they said they fonnd me
standing by the eDgine, gazing alternate
ly at the bloody driver and my written
order, still tightly clasped in my hand. I
was unconscious of everything eave the
fact that I had obeyed orders, and had
thereby taken a life. They say I fainted
bnt I knew nothing from the instant I
discovered that white, bloodless face un
til fonr days after, when I awakened ap
parently ont of a dream. M; first ques
tion was, “Did the excursion get in safea
lj?”
The oorener held an iEqnsst ss soon I
oonld be examined, and the verdict waa:
“We, the jury, find that Albert Long
came to bis death by being crashed be
tween a locomotive which was wrecked by
J. L. B. f an operator cn the rail
road, ancordicg to the order of D. E. B.,
his superintendent and superior officer.
And we find farther, that no blame can
be attached to said J. L. B . D. E. B., or
tbe said railroad o iinpiny, and the engine
was wrecked to* eave a heavily loaded ex
cursion, and said Albert Long, being a
madman, was on tbe engine in direct op
position to the company's orders.*’ I
have that order and a copy of the verdict
side by eide in my diary, where they shall
always remain.
Often in my dreams I see an unrecog
nizable mass of quivering flesh and
broken bones beneath the hnge driver,
and a white onscarred face presents itself
to my gaze. A sadden shriek will almost
craze me, and I am tempted to go where
railroads are unknown, where the hissing
cannot reach me.
It is not perfectly convenient to consult
yonr pbyaici in for every headaohe or at
tack of indigestion, which may trouble
yon, bnt is both safe and convenient to
use Dr. Bull’s Baltimere Pills, which
promptly relieve the discomfort of these
attacks.
Imervlew with Mrs. Jesse
Grant—Der Marly Uecolleo-
u ous oi Her Mon.
New York Graphio.l
This morning a reporter called npon Mrs,
Jesse Grant, the venerable mother of the
ex-President, who makes her home with
her daughter, Mrs Corbin, in Jersey City.
The Oorbin residence ie a pleasant frame
house with* brj.d verandah, looking doen
npon beds of brilliant salvia and scarlet ge
raniums, mingled with da-ty millers and fo-
lisge plants. It stands on Favonia aveane,
not f*r from the court house.
Tn response to a card Mrs. Grant soon en
tered the bindsome parlor into which the
reporter had been ushered, and seated her
self in an aim chair of crimson velvet, which
threw into strong relief her slender figure
draped m black, and the pale rather delicate
features framed in puffs of silvery white
hair, shaded by a dainty white cap In te-
spoege to an ioqoity as to when ehs expec
ted her son, Mrs. Grant arid :
“Indeed, the newspapers seem to know
more about it than we do. At least Mr.
Corbin says so. For myself, 1 never read
any paper but the Christian Advocate, pub
lished in Cincinnati”
1 ‘And ia that because the paper is religions
or from Cincinnati?” tha reporter ventured
to inquire.
“Well,” Baid the old lady, smiling, * prin
cipally because it ia religious, though 1 am
very much inclined to like anything from
Cincinnati. Yon know I have lived in Ohio
most of the time since I wia a girl of twen
ty, and go many of my old frienua live there
that my heart eitogs to it," ehe concludtd,
with tear dimmed eyea.
“Yon are very proud of yonr ohildten,”
remarked the reporter.
“Yea,” aaid the old lady, with a satisfied
smile; "they are pretty good take them aa a
whole; bnt It is no easy thing to bring up a
family.”
The writer only having made the ex
periment tneoretioally, agreed, and inquired
what sort of a baby Olyaaea was
“Well, very fair, though I don't know as
be was different from any of the rsat of
them, but people eeem to think I’ll say so
now. Ho was always a steady, actions sort
of boy, who took everything in earnest; even
whon he played ho made a business matter
of it ”
“You expect to see him bool?”
"Yes, my grandsons, Uiyaases and Jease,
have gone to San Francisco to meet him.
They think he will an ive on Saturday. Then
he is comiDg through East. I hoar they
have got his honse in Galena, that the peo
ple there gave him all in readiness, even to
the servants, but,” sbe continued, bridling
a little, “1 know he will come first to see his
mother.”
“Where will he reside this winter?”
“Maybe in Washington, maybe ia New
Yor;, msybo in Philadelphia, maybe—but
dear me, there’s lots of places to live in, aud
there’s no telling what he will do. One
thing I do know, though, and that is, that
he and Mrs Grant will be glad to have a
rest. You see .the Europeans like fighting
men, and they have been feasting and din
ing him nutil I expect the poor boy is olear
worn out ”
'• “'A'cen you won’t approvo of any demon
stration here?
“No, indeed, we are not a demonstrative
family," said the sweet old lady. “None of
ns care a penny far all the demonstrations
in the world ”
Some Good Advice to tUe Acting
President.
Philadelphia Times 1
If acting President Rogers is not too busy
saving the government from everlasting
smash he might make some reputation by
giving tbe civil service crank a vigorous turn
or two Beyond any kind of doubt some
thing is loose in Massachusetts. United
States Marshal Banks was present as a dele
gate at the recent State Convention, hurrah
ing like the veteran that he ia for the man
woo won, while Collector Beard, with a
crowd from tho Boston Custom H uso, was
on hand trying to nominate the man who was
defeated. This is a bad arrangement of
things. If oivil service reform means any
thing—and some people have ths assuance
to pretend that it does—its means that Fede
ral officers shall pull together in little mat
ters of this kind, and Acting President Rog
ers owes it to tho country to see that things
are harmonized.
Mo Fraud About that Twine.
Philadelphia Tides.1
What little there ia of the adminiatrii ion left
at Washington seeds to be haviog abont as
much fan as is that portion whicu is cen
tered over the country. At abont the time
yesterday when ths Pre ideat ont in Ohio
was sternly arraying himself against slaveiy
and seceaaion, the Acting Postmaster Gene
ral—whoever that may be—was stretching a
piece of twine a'ong tbs corridor of the de
partment to show wnat enormous size trees
grew in California. There was no fraud
abont this twine. It indicated the circum
ference of one of the Dig trees, and the
msasmement was taken by tbo Acting Post
master General with bis own hands. At the
moment when the government was collected
in the department corridor viewing with ab
solute awe this remarkable* piece of string
it waa ninety feet in length, with a prospect
that it might grow some more still.

A Growl at our Legislators.
N. Y. Eno.1
The Legislature of Georgia has refused to
prohibit Its members from accepting free
passes on railroads. The refusal might
have been based on the ground that legisla
tors ought to have sense of honor and de
cency enough to decline such compromising
favors without being compelled to do so by
law; but it was not. Tbe members were in
dignant, not their integrity should be doubt?
ad, bn: that their long-enjoyed privilege of
getting free passes should be endangered,
and Iheyhaatentd to lay the proposition
very emphatically npon the table It is a
significant fact in this coroection that the
Georgia Legislature has just voted to re
lease a railroad from tbe p.yment of a large
amount of taxes due to tbe State.

them is invaluable
toerery community
Ayer’s Ciir.iuiv
Pectoral is such a
remedy, and no
other so eminently
merits tho confr
dence of the public.
It is a scientific com.
Stlii nation of the medi-
nBd'cinal principles and
IfW-' curative virtues of
nW'tlie finest drugs,
chemically united,
* to insure the great
est possible efficiency and uniformity of re. .
suits, which enables physicians as well a*
invalids to use it with confidence. It ia
the most reliable remedy for diseases of
the throat atul lungs tliat science has pro
duced. It strikes at the foundation of aU
oulmonary diseases, affording prompt
and certain relief, and is adapted to pa
tients of any age or either sex. Being
very palatable, the youngest children
take it without difficulty. In the treat
ment of ordinary Coughs, Colds, Sore
Throat, Bronchitis, influenza. Cler
gyman’s Sore Throat, Astlinm,Croup,

Consumption there is no other remedy
so efficacious, soothiug, and helpful.
The marvellous cures which Ayer's

An impartial trial will convince the most
