Yonkers Statesman. It appears that Jonas Burton had been chosen Justice of the Peace of one the small Wyoming towns, not because he was possessed of any special quali fications for the office, but on account of his personal magnetism, which had about it all those qualifications which 2. The interesting collection of mounds, earthworks and stone graves found in Tennessee and Southern Ken tucky are simply the remains of an cient fortified towns, villages and set tlements, once, inhabited by ti’ibes of devoted to agriculture ,i i • r | Indians more devoted to agriculture go to make the yellow dog a thing of ! , , . , , n and more stationary in then liaDits beauty and a ]oy forever to lovers of | r generally pure cussedness. Among other func tions of his office Hon. Jonas one day found himself called upon to join in the “bond of padlock,” as matrimony is sometimes called in the West, a raw young couple from up the country. His honor was appalled at the situa tion. lie could commit a horse-thief to the gallows with all the elegance and impressiveness of manner which that act demanded. He could sentence a man to jail for life for holding five aces in his hand at poker, without turning a hair, but as to “man-yin’ folks, he wasn’t in it, be goslilemitey!” But as J ustiee of the Peace he had to do it, and his perturbation of spirit w r as dreadful to witness. About an hour before the ceremony was to take place the correspondent, accompanied by one of the leading cit izens of the place, was sent to the squire’s cabin and found him poring over a large volume of the statutes of Wyoming, sweating like a horse and looking terribly anxious. After greet ing the callers, he said: “Stiles, the durned galoots that got up these laws hadn’t gumption enough to last them over night. I’ve run thro’ the blamed book half a dozen times and can’t find a dodblasted word about mafermonv, or how the hitching busi ness is proceeded with. I’ve just got to put the clamps on this couple, hit or miss, an’ ef I don’t yoke ’em up legal I can’t help it.” “Oh,” said Stiles, “just do the best you can. Any kind of ceremony will do in this country, for people never question the legality of the thing. I’ll post you as well as I can.” Stiles then explained to him how he should proceed, and the old man thought, finally,he could worry through it. Ere long the couple appeared fol lowed by a crowd of the citizens of the camp. The candidates stood up before the old squire, who said: “Feller citizens, this yer man and this yer woman have appeared before this Court to be hitched in the legal bands of wedlock. If any galoot in the mob knows of anything that mout block the game if tuk to a higher Court let him now toot his bazooo, or else keep his jaw to himself now and for ever more. All in favor of me pro ceedin'* according to law say ‘I.’ ” Everyboydy said “I.” “Contrary, ‘no.’ ” Nobody said “no.” “The motion is carried unanimously, an’ the court rules that tliar ain’t nuthin’ to prevent the try in’ of the case. Grip your fins.” The candidates joined hands. “Amos Peabody, do you solemnly sw’ar that you’ll freeze to Mandy forever an’ ever ? Thet you’ll ■love her an’ pervide i'er her an’ treat her square an’ white, accordin’ to the rules and regulations sot down to gov ern sich cases in the laws o’ the United States, so help you God?” “Yaas. sir; I do, sir.” “That fixes your end o’ the bargain. Maudy Thomas, (•> you .solemnly sw’ar that ye’ll liang on to Amos for all canin’ time; tliai y 'll nu-.-s him in sick- . ness an’ be square to him in wellness; ; that ye’ll be to him a good, true, lion-; est, up an’ up wife, under the penalty I prescribed hv the laws for the punish-j meat of sich offenses; do ye sw’ar this, so help you God V “I sw’ar I will.’’ “Tlieu by the power in me vested as J ustiee of the Peace, in an’ fur this decs- trick, I pronounce you, Amos Peabody, husband, an’ you, Mandy Thomas, wife, an’ legalize ye to remain as such now ail’ furever more; an' ye’ll stand committed till the fees an’ costs in the case be paid in full, an' may God have mercy on your souls, and bless this union with his heftiest- blessings.” The fees and' costs were adjusted, ami, after receiving the congratulations of the assembly, the newly made lius- than the hunting tribes known to the whites. 3. No single implement or article of manufacture or earthwork or defensive work has been found among their re mains indicating intelligence or ad vancement in civilization beyond that of other Indians having intercourse with the whites within the historic pe riod. 4. The accumulation of dense popula tion in favored localities, and progress made towards civilization were proba bly the results of periods of repose and peace that enabled these tribes to col lect in more permanent habitations, and to pursue for a time a more peaceful mode of life than some of their neigh bors and. successors. 5. These periods of peace and ad vancement were probably succeeded by years of want, invasions, migrations, or changes which arrested the limited development in the arts of peace or civilization, and left the native tribes in the status in which they were found by the whites. These propositions can be successful ly maintained,' and will afford the most man reasonable solution of the arcluelogi- cal problems long in controversy. If we could have been given a glimpse of the fair valley of the Cumberland in 1492, the date of America’s discovery, there can scarcely be a doubt but that we would have learned the story of the mounds and graves from some of their own builders; hut nearly three centu ries elapsed before the pioneers of civ ilization reached the confines of Ten- Suddenly Stricken Blind. Cincinnati Enquirer. A catastrophe such as few men have the •stoicism to bear and few survive has come like a thunderclap upon Charles Cullman, of 52 Browne street. Last Saturday night, while auditing the books of the Bellevue Building As sociation, at their rooms on McMicken avenue, he turned suddenly to one of the bystanders and angrily exclaimed: “Why do you turn out the gas? I’m not through yet ?” “Turn out the gas! What’s the matter with you? The gas is burn ing.” ‘*l\Iy God, then I’m blind!” cried Cullman, and sinking back in his chair, from which he had risen in his excite ment, he buried his face in his hands and moaned and wept like a child. Dr. Schwartmeyer, his regular physi cian, was hastily sent for, and only ar rived to confirm the worst fears. Cullman was indeed blind. Without a premonitory sign, without a warning, the blow had come, and as he sat there bemoaning his sad . fate his eyes grew dim. Friends took him by the hand and trembled with emo tion as they tried to speak words of hope and comfort. The stricken man only moaned, “My wife 1 My little ones!” Tenderly they led him staggering to his home. The wife was cautiously prepared for his'home-coming. lleroi- . ally si erved li rself for t he ordeal, but her strength gave way as she met her husband’s tottering step. Her four little ones, the eldest not yet twelve years and the youngest a mere toddler, clung to her skirts and echoed the sobs if the. mother, and the scene that fol lowed beggars description. Sunday | morning l)rs. Ayers and Saltier, the | noted specialists, were summoned. A j ! Vngthy examination by these gentle- 1 I men only confirmed the verdict already j j given. A diagnosis followed, and it i was discovered that Cullman had for j some time been a sufferer from Bright’s j ; disease of the kidneys. The exuda- ! tions of albumen from these organs I caused uraemic blood-poisoning, which gradually pervaded the whole system I of the sufferer. Step by step the dis-; and will look only at the grand result of pledges kept and realized for the good of all. The administration of Mr. Cleveland has justified his election. It has been honest—and how much that means when we consider recent history I It has been temperate, wise, steady and patriotic. In my judgment, the peo ple will not change it for something they |know not of. The people are more concerned in good government- honest trusteeship of the common stock—than most politicians suppose. One disappointed politician will make more noise than a thousand good voters who have neither been appointed or disappointed. But the thousand votes count. “This year I think they will be with Mr. Cleveland. He is stronger person ally with the masses Shan lie was four years ago; the party is stronger also in the confidence of the country, only ten tatively given at the last election. We have been on trial mere than three years. The party and the- President may have made mistakes—but there are spots on the sun. But the country has been served with wisdom aiid integrity, and that is exactly what the people stipu lated for when they selected Mr. Cleve land four years ago. They will prefer a repetition of this service x-ather than risk the untried—or too much tried- administration that may be offered by the other side.” A WORD IN SEASON. ...... j.t oft a nnrativfi a Everybody wants to claim something extraordinary for whatever they « j e( j as a jjiood Remedy, and nobody B.

A Texan in Washington once applied to Congressman Culberson for a little temporary loan, promising to pay it back in thirty days if he lived. Months went by and the loan was not paid. One day the Texan met Mr. Culberson and extended his hand. The Congress- stared and didn’t shake hands. After a few embarrassing moments' lie drawled out: “I don’t know you, sir.” “Oh yes, you do,” said the Texan. “I am Mr. Blank, of San Antonio.” Culberson shook his head as lie re plied with gravity: “You are not the Blank, of San Anto nio, that I knew. He is dead. He bor rowed some money of me and said he would return it in thirty days if lie liv ed. That was a year ago. I have nev er seen the money, so I know Mr. Blank, of San Antonio, is dead, for lie was a man of his word.” The Texan stammered and shame facedly said: “I haven’t got the mon ey just at present, but ” “You don’t owe me a d—d cent, sir,” interrupted Mr. Culberson in liis imperturbable manner. “The man I refer to is dead, or he would have paid the money.” The San Antonio man disappeared and he has carefully kept away from Congressman Culberson ever since.. He holds an office in the treasury depart ment. After agonizing for eight months on the ragged edge, young Perkins mus tered up-courage enough to declare his passion for the beautiful Miss Wiswall, and was sweetly and graciously ac cepted. “My own darling !” he cried, joyfully folding her to his heaving breast, “How very, very happy you make me ! And you do love me ?” “Y-e-e-s, Harry, I—listen !” “What is it, my angel?” “Nothing. I was mistaken. Go on, dear.” “My precious one! If you only knew ” “Listen, dear.” “What is it? No one is coming.

I have been troubled with rheumatism for two years; had gotten so I could scarcely wa'k, and was in pain nearly all the time. At night could not 'sleep for the excruciating pain. The bone iu one of my legs was very much enlarged, and I feared that amputation would be necessary.

Willingham, of your city, hearing of my com plaint, advised the use of your medicine, and assured, me of his confidence in it as a cure for rheumatism. I at once purchased a bot tle, hoping it might relieve me, but not having much faith in it, or in .anything else; but, thafikGod, I: am very muen relieved, aito I firmly believe I will get entirely well.

The last spell came on me in November, 18ho, over a year ago, at which ime I was eonuned to my bed for eight weeks, passing the nights in misery, with no sleep except when produc ed bv narcotics and various opiates, ine week previous to using B- B. 13. up to to at time I had only eaten six meals and could scarcely sit up without support; bu tafter-us ing three botrffs I was able to relish n,\ meals and to walk up town, and after six bot tles had been used, thank heaven, I was en tirely cured, and not the slightest pam. felt since that time. When I returned to business in February my weight was 145 pounds, but •rradually increased until my regular weight was a°ain attained, 210 pounds. The noticea- ble fact in what I have so cheerfully stated is, that this unparalleled and remarkable dis- covery B. B. B. cured me in mid-winter, at the very time my sufferings and misery were the greatest. I take it on myself as a practi cal druggist to heartily, cheerfully, as well as conscientiously, recommend this glorious blood remedy to all sufferers from rheuma tism or blood troubles, and not only myself, but the firm of McKay & Adams, who handle it will cheertully indorse its superior merits. ’ John M.
