A Nice Little Development by the Repub-
lean Officials.

In obedience to a law of last winter, the
Auditor of State, Attorney General and Sec
Rotary of State Call Republicans have just re-
ported to the Legislature the result of their
: investigations in reference to the LewfAown
Reservoir contract. Among other matters
which these three Republican officers report,
is the fact that William H.. Gibson, ex-treasu-
rer,rloaned to said Reservoir company tcenty
6arthousand dollars of the public.money which
has never found its way back into the State
Treasury. This development seems to conflict
somewhat with Gov. Chase's solemn and oft
' repeated declarations on the stump that not a
single dollar of the public money had ever
~wrongfully touched the hand of a Republican
State oficer!-Nerark AdUocate.

MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS.

THE undersigned respectfully desires to INTERN

has the agency for the sale of Lighte, Newton and
Bradbury's Patent arch wrest Plank Piano Fortes.-
These instruments are celebrated for depth, fullness
richness, purity and a peculiar singing quality of
their tone, for which they have received the highest
Ecomiums from the greatest musical celebrities of
the country, and wherever brought in competition
with other instruments, have received the highest
premiums, among which was the first premium of
the Worlds Fair at London. The patent arch wrest
Plank garantees their standing in tone longer than
any other instrument.
1 am prepared to sell the above Pianos at New
York prices, the cost of transportation only added,
and will also furnish any other make, Chickering
or others, at the sam rate. Any one in want of a
good instrument, will do well to give me a call be-
fore purchasing elsewhere.
Sheet music constantly kept on hand. Instruc-
ton given on the Piano,-and Pianos tuned when
ever called upon. Sales room on Cottage Street, at

Backed Down.

For some time after the election last fall,
scarcely a republican could be met who did not
declare that NJ. H. NICHOLS would and should
contest the right of WILLIAM ALLEN to his
s seat in Congress. More than sixty days have
. elapsed since Mr.. Aliens certificate was issued
y and no notice has been served. The Repub.
Ecans witnessed one contest in this county,
which doubtless has satisfied them as to which
party it is that does the illegal voting. They
have also learned that11. Fl. Nichols with all
his chicanery and lavish distribution of money,
could not succeed in obtaining a majority OF
rthevotes of a constituency which he had so
basely betrayed, and he is now ~repudiated for
a betrayal of trust confded in him. The
career of politicians is short-lived when place
and power are gained by dishonest motives
The case OF NJ. ii. Nichols is a striking illus
-trafion of the truth of this declaration.-Darke

METAL TIPS TO Doors AND SHoEs.-The
saving in shoe leather which the small metallic
tip on the toe of a boot or shoe effects is very
: great, and the invocation is one of practical
utility. Children are remarkably fond OF
kicking out the toes of their shoes, thus render.
ing them useless and making it necessary that
another pair should be procured, although no
other part of the former pair is injured. BY
the use of these tips, which may be made OF
silver, copper, iron, or any other malleable
metal, the boot or shoe may be worn until it is
really "done up," and they are SO secure. that so
long as any portion of the sole remains, the tip
will be held fast They do not increase the
weight of the shoe above half an ounce or an
ounce. 1t is the invention of G.. A. Mitchell,
of Turnor, Me-, and was patented on the 9Th
of January. Economically speaking, there is
no doubt of its value, as one pair of boots or
shoes-nen's, ladies', or children's-can be
made to last nearly twice the time they would
without the tipsI[Scientifc American.

ROBBERY OR RAscALITY-FAILURE-Gor-
don McWilliams, residing near Marion and for
some years past engaged in buying and ship
ping stock to New York, Philadelphia, &C., re-
turned from Philadelphia on Thursday and re-
ported that he had been robbed of So, 500
somewhere between Philadelphia and Marion.
The Republican states that the announcement
caused great excitement, as McWilliams, was
much IN. debt, many farmers holding his paper
from whom he had bought stock on time, &c.
His Indebtedness is estimated at from SIS, 900
to $4,000 which he secured as far as his prop
erty would reach. Some few believe that he
has; really been robbed, whilst the great major
ity have no faith whatever in his story.

john G.. BREsLIN.-The Canadian cores
! pondent of the New York Times thus refers to
the defaulting Ohio Treasurer:
IF you ever knew, you may have forgotten,
and if you did know, it will be news to tell you,
that Mr.. Breslin, formerly Treasurer of the
State of Ohio, who it is said ran away with,
forget how many hundred thousand dollars,
8 has since that elopement been living quite
quietly in the neighboring city of Hamilton.
He boards, L believe, at the Anglo-American
Hotel. He is very retiring, and never OBJ
trudes himself upon the attention of visitors.
His hair is getting very gray. saw him the
other day and noted a great change. The gen.
eral impression is hat a man who lives so
quietly and unostentatiously, nay even closely,
as he does, can not have made much by run
ming away, and SO people don't often abscond
unless they can make a pile in doing SO, it is
thought likely that the defafcations will ere
long be traced to some body other than the ex-
treasurer. OF course, we Canadians have no
means of knowing. We can only conjecture.

Ayers Ague Cure.

which neutralizes this malarious poison in the blood,
and stimulates the liver to expel it from the body. AS
it should, so it does cure this affecting disorder with
perfect certainty. And it does more, or rather does
what is of more service to those subject to this infection.
If taken in season it expels it from the system as it is
absorbed, and thus keeps those who use it free from its
attacks; keeps the system in health although exposed
to the disease. Consequently it not only cures, but
protects from. the great variety of affections which are
Fever, Chill Fever, Dumb, or Masked Ague, Periodical
Headache, or Bilious Headache, Bilious Fevers, Neu-
ralgia, rheumatism, Gout, Blindness, Toothache, Ear
ache, Catarrh, Asthma, Palpitations, Painful Affections
of the Spleen, Mysteries, Collie, Paralysis, and Painful
Affections of the Stomach and Bowels, all of which,
when arising from this cause, will be found to assume
more or less the intermittent type. This "AGUE
CURE" removes the cause of these arrangements, and
cures the disease. ~
This it accomphshes by stimulating the excretories
to expel the virus from the system; and these organs
by degrees become habited to do this their office of their
own accord. Hence arises what we term accinGtdtson.
Time may accomplish the same end, but often life is not
long enough, or is sacrificed In the attempt, while this
"AGUE CURE " does it at once, and with safety. We
have great reason to believe this is a surer as well as
safer remedy for the whole class of diseases which are
caused by the miasmatic infection, than any other which
has been discovered; and it has still another important
advantage to the public, which is, that it is cheap as
well as good.
