W. B. Brooks, executor of Mrs. H. F. Spinks
deceased, has applied for dismission from his
trurt:
This is therefore to cite ail persons concerned to-
apiKar at the January XerniV 1836, of the Court
of ordinary of aaid c..uuty, and show .ause,ifany
they have, why said application should not be
grouted
as they ever were, and there are
not yet any signs of a general
breaking of the party lines.
Even the great disaffection which
Blaine’s nomination caused in the
republican party does not indicate
an intention on the part of those
who bolted his nomination to for
sake their old party. In fact, if
unobjectionable presidential can
didates are nominated by the re
publicans in 1888, a-large propor
tion, doubtless, of the independ
ents will be found in line, work
ing as earnestly for the election of
the republican ticket as they did
to. defeat- Blaine this year. When
the deface; atic party gets posses-
sien .of the government, however,
it may confidently be expected
that if its representatives- pursue a
wise course, it will gather enough
strength from the ranks of those
upon whom party ties haug loose
iy to keep it in power much long
er than one term.
If the democratic party should
redeem the pledges it has mode to
reduce tariff taxation do a revenue
basis, or do its utmost in that di
rection, there is little room to
doubt that it will make great gains
in the West, while it may, per
haps, lose a few adherents here
and there iu the South and East.
It is evident, however, that there
cannot be any general breaking up
of the two leading parties in the
country for many . years, at least
not until the republican party
ceases to exist as at present con
stituted. It is possible that _once
out of power, and no longer held
together in a solid phalanx by the
cohesive force of public plundei, it
may gradually disintegrate, and
that a new party will be formed in
itsplace.
Mark Twain bad a funny expe
rience in Albany lately, entirely
unpremeditated by the humorist.
In making a tour of the capitol he,
wi& his party, entered the Adju
tant General’s office to pay his re-
speets to that official. The Adju
tant-General being absent for the
moment, the party ichatted cheer
fully, and Mark Twain,, with his
.usual ease, sat down carlessly on
President from the people. He
did not drive to the capitol in a
coach and six, as had been the
Federal practice. 'He abolished
the court etiquette and the presi
dential levee. There was no es
tablished precedence in his list of
callers. He did not recognize
such titles as “Fxcellency” and
“Honorable,” and would not even
permit himself to- be addressed as
“Mr.” He was plain Thomas Jef
ferson, and he said of himself that
he “was conscious of feeling no
difference between writing to
the highest and lowest being on
earth.”
Tn his official station, one of his
best biographers says, “he regard
ed himself purely as a trustee for
the public.”
This eminent example in the
highest pnblic potion in the land
was a wholesome lessxp to the peo
ple generally. The immediate in
fluence was shown in Washington
society. It was reflected in the
honesty and integrity that were
conspicuous in the public officials
of all grades. It was felt, and felt
for good, in every corner .of the
whole* country.
The coming Democratic admin
istration Will revive something
more than mere reminiscences,
and will be an approach to the re
vival of the reality of those good
old days.
Eye Memory.
ooe of the Adjutant-General’s ta-_ ry shop was so perfect and relia
bles. A few minutes after a doz
en clerks and deputies of the de
partment rushed in and vehement
ly demanded what was - wanted.
None of the visitors could under
stand the intrusion, until it was
discovered that Mark Twain had
planted himself squarely on a long
row of electric buttons, and thus
set ringing as many call bells.
Look steadily at a bright object,
keep the eyes immovable on it for
a short time, and then close them.
An image of the'memory remains;
it becomesj in fact, visible to the
closed eyes. The vividness and
duration of such impressions vary
considerably with I different indi
viduals, and the power of retaining
them may be cultivated. An ec
centric old man, the once celebra
ted but now forgotten “Memory
Thompson,” trained himself to the
performance of wonderful feats of
eye memory. He could close his
eyes and picture within himself
a panorama of Oxford street and
other parts of London, in which

San Francisco, Cal. —The Chron
icle publishes in substance the fol
lowing marvel. Captain W. F.
Swasey,~the oldest pioneer of the
coast, niakes a statement of the in
tense suffering of his friend Col. D.
J. Williamson, an army officer of
distinction and an ex-U. S. Consul,
who was attacked in the winter of
1861-2 with violent rheumatism.
So .great was his agony in after
years, he became a helpless crip
ple, and after trying numberless
rernedies, the baths of other coun
tries and spewung a fortune of
$20,000, the disease seemed to as
sume a more’ virulent type.. Finally
he was persuaded to try. St. Jacobs
Oil, the great conquerer of pain. It
■worked a miracle of cure. In a let
ter to the Chronicle he confirms
Capt Swasey’s statement and adds:
“I cheerfully give my unqualified
attestation to the truthfulness of
the statement, because I feel per
fectly certain that a knowledge of
my -cure by St Jacods Oil will
prove the means of relieving hun

awake traveler was also impressed
with the want of banking facilities
in southern towns. He found
money lenders and banks getting
two per cent a month on short time
loans and twelve per cant a year
on long time payments. When
money can be had in New York
at three per cent a year there Is
no reason why it could not be ob

Some eight years ago I was in
oculated with poison by a nurse
who infected my babe with blood
taint. The little child lingered
along until it was about two years
old, when its little life was yielded
up to the fearful poison. For six
long years I have suffered untold
misery. I was covered with sores
and ulcers from head to foot, and
in my great extremity I prayed to
die. No language can express my
feelings of woe during those long
six years. I had the best medical
treatment. Several physicians
successively treated me, but all to
no purpose. The Mercury and
Potash seemed to add fuel to the
awful flame which- was devouring
me. About three months ago I was
advised by friends who had seen
wonderful cures made by it to try

“The secret of life is to keep
moving. Men grow old only when
they sit down long enoflgh|§to get
rusty. I want to live just as long
as Lean be happy! When I reach
the point when.my friends .^stand

get on thefother side; there comes
that old fool,” I want to die. Men
make a great mistake in this]] life
by holding on to any position after
they have lc.st their grip and their
company lias become unpleasant
to their associates.”
