RIGHT OF WAY ONCE MORE.

The Richmond Enquirer gives W. let
tiers from Mr.. McLane, the President OF
the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Co.,
showing the views of the company in re-
Iation to the right of way. Judging from
these letters and the tone of the Balti-
more press, the Enquirer says: s
"We feel warranted, IN expressing our
confident conviction, that the idea, that II
the Legislature will stand firm on Fish
Greek, the Baltimore Company will final
lv acquiesce in that point, is altogether
fallacious. And we are the more anxious
to correct this misapprehension, because,
unless removed, it may result in driving
the contemplated improvement from Vir-
GINA territory altogether, and loose to US
forever its vast advantages result much
to be deprecated, and which. it is to be
hoped, the wisdom of the Legislature will
avert, before it shall be forever too late,
by adopting that point for the terminus of
the road, which IT IS RITA the compa-
ny will accept"

case where il was used until the system
became affected by the medicine, the dis

In one of these cases the man had been
afflicted with it so severely for thirteen
years. as To entirely disable him from bu-

previous TO his taking The Life Prescrva-

by his affections.

son OF PENNSYLVANIA.

The Washington Correspondent of the
Baltimore Patriot thus speaks Of a sound
Pennsylvania Statesman.
sin the House yesterday, "a heep' of
speeches were delivered to empty bench
es, on the three million bill. | took no
note of anv of them except that Of Mr..
Andrew Stewart, of Pennsylvania. He
is a thorough going practical man, and
when he has anything to say, he says
it right straight out, and gives the facts
and figures to bear out his declaration.
The points | noted down related to the
contrast which he drew between practical
Locofoco and practical Wing doctrine, as
illustrated by facts.
The annual expenditure of Mr.. Adams's
Administration were $l3,000,00O, in the
four years Mr.. A. paid $15,000,000 of
the Public debt.
This was the practical work of a Wing
Administration! Look on the picture
and now on this.
The annual expenditure Of Mr.. Van
Buren's Administration we're $2S ,000,-
oOOl And instead Of paying off any
Public Debt, his expenditures in four
years exceeded the whole income Of the
Government, S3l 900, 900!
Here was democratic purity and econ
omy for you.
The tariff of 1912, he stated, paid
$34, 900 Of the then Public Debt, and
left a surplus in the Treasury Of $6,000,-
900. This was a Wing measure.
He asked TO have a tree Judged by its
fruits! And what had the democrat tree,
now in power produced! Ii had produced
the tariff of 1916. And what did this
Tariff do! it reduced the duty one half,
from the tariff of 1912, on what! On
brandy and other distilled spirits! The
duty on these luxuries under the Tariff of
1919, was $2,O43,0 600! By the reduc-
ton, the revenue is reduced $685., 900.
And how does MIR. Polk propose TO
make up the deficiency! Why, Mr.. Stew
art answered, he has this day sent a mes
sage to Congress asking for a tax to be
laid on tea and coffee! Why did he not
recommend the duty to be doubled on
brandy and distilled spirits!
These points Mr.. Stewart entered with
great zeal and ability, much to the unea-
siness of Mr.. Cobb, of Georgia, who had
a good many questions to ask him.

CANAL COMMISSIONER-JO-
SEPH w. PATTON.

Among the names which will be brought
before the iiarrisburgh Convention, for
nomination, as the Wing candidate for
Canal Commissioner, there is no one
which would command more strength
than that JOSEPH w. PATTON, of Cum
berland County. Mr.. Patton, besides be-
ing a sterling Antimason and Wing, pos
sesses all the qualities necessary to make
him a most excellent officer. The Coun-
ties of Blair, Cambria, Mifiiin and Cum
berland, have already instructed their del
egates TO urge his nomination, and he will
go into the Convention with a strength
equal if not greater than that of any other
candidate. ALLEGHENY.

Nor comfort nor peace can We find,
No streams of the desert allay,
The thirst Of the desolate mind.

And soon will your spirit revive,
To labor and languish no more.

Your soul is eternally lost.
O come to the Fountain Of Life,
Ye thirsty, we wretched, and poor,

Their virtue of healing is sure.

Why linger in sorrow and gloom;
o haste to the fountain to-day,
All, all are invited to come.
