The Blind Piles, said to be incura-

warrants the contrary. His Liniment will
cure Blind Piles. Facts are more stubborn
than theories, He solicits all respectable
Physicians to try il upon their patients. 1t
will do them no harm, and tits known that
physicians who had the honesty to make
the trial, have candidly admitted that it has
succeeded in every case they have known.
Then why not use it2 1t is the recipe OF
one of their most respectable members, now
deceased. Why refuse to useit! Because
it is sold as proprietary medicine ! Is this a
sufficient excuse for suffering their patients
to linger in distress2 We think not.
Physicians shall be convinced that there is
no humbug or quackery about this article'--
Why then not alleviate human suffering?
lfthey wont try it before, let them after all
other prescriptions fail. Physicians are
respectfully requested to do themselves
and patients the justice 10 use the article.
1t shall be taken from the bottle, and done
up as their prescription, if they desire.

THE COUNTY MEETING.
August &. 1888.

Notwithstanding the utmost exertions
were used by the Danvile interest to pre-
vent TIE attendance of the democrats from
she upper section Of the county, by circu-
lating false statements as 10 the object Of
the meeting, il was numercusly attended
by gentlemen from all parts of the county,
ara ihe r,oceedings received the hearty ap-
probation of az, with ihs exception Of the
gentlemen from Danylle, and one or two
from Berwick. From them, as wcs to
have been expected, they received decided
opposition, accompanied with threats Of a
division of - party ifthey were MOTTO have
the whole control Of the elections-or in
other words, if such candidates were not
nominated as would sustain the interest of
Danvillc, and throw into their pockets the
Dollars and Cents" But the Democrats
with one voice, rroclaimed that they would
have "union and harmony" and sustain
such men only, as, had tie interest OF the
Whole party and that Of the county, at heart
since the meeting, in ~ parts ofths county
from which We have heard, but ono sent

A severe rebuke was given

A severe rebuke was given at the county
meeting 70 those democrats who are endea-
yoring a. procure the charter Of a bank to be
located il he county. Although some who
style themselves leaders of the democratic
party, and in whom the party have hereto
fore had confidence, may go astray, there
is always sufficient virtue and stability in
the farmer and mechanic to correct them,
and put matters in their right place in due
season. The people may be deceived by
false appearances and deceptive policy for
while; Int their good sense will soon dis
cover lao error. II will then be difficult
for the same persons to deceive them again.
He who expects 10, must have more impu-
dence a. 5rass, and less knowledge of hu-
man nature, and Of tie intelligence of the
people; than is possessed by the common
lot Of man.

ECCLESIASTICAL AcTloN AGAINST. SLAVERY
We are gratfed to find that even Indiana, where
comparatively little effort has been made in behalf
of the sacred cause of Emancipation, tn slave is
not forgotten. The following excellent resolution
was adopted at the late Congregational Associa-
ton of that state. May other religious bodies in
the free states initiate this association They hold
in their hands the key to the Great Southern
Prison House. They have power to throw open
its massive doors, and let in the light of Heaven
upon its suffering inmates How long will they
hesitate to exercise that power on the side of Mer
cy and Justice ?
Resozutionsof Indiana Congregational Association.
Resoloed, That it is the deliberate conviction of
this Association that slaveholding involves the
combination of all the moral evil that exists among
men. That it is in its nature Hatred of God,
Idolatry, Profanity, Sabbath Breaking, Disobedi-
ence to Parents, Murder Adultery, Stealing, Lying
and Covetousness and that, consequently, the
church is bound to use all Scripural means to re-
move this sin from its borders.
