Throat and Lung Institute 80 West Fourth

Inflammation Of the Throat. The tonsils and
uvula (or palate) were SO much enlarged that
there seemed to be but one course to pursue, and
that was to cut them off; this had been told by
other physicians, who had also caudidly told
me they could not cure me. DIR. Aver made u
careful examination and pronounced cxcision
unnecessary, and prescribed Medicoted MhdIa-
tion and topical applications, with general treat
ment, and the result is a perfect trimphl The
Inflammation has been alayed, and the tonsils

such cases made and provided. What becomes
OF the enormous" county taxes from year to
year? Who is to be any wiser for the eighty
five thousand dollars paid by the Joblike pa
tent people of the county, the year past? Has
the GLORY" of old Worcester County become
so dazzling that we can't see at all /? We have
divers taxing powers in the Commonwealth,
but after paying the tax, we usually expect
from those entrusted with the expenditures, to
make some report to the members taxed, of
their doings-but, who ever heard of any re-
port from these irresponsible bodies to the peo-
pie of the county, unless in so general terms as
might just as well be, Gentlemen, we have
spent your money" And, when the next year
comes round, all that is wanting for fresh
start is, just to place upon the Speakers desk a
slip of paper with "Old Worcester will want
this year 100000 for county purposes"
Now, if we are to have nothing better than
repetition of things like these, in future, if the
principle of taxation and representation is not
selfevident lie, if, really, the one-man power,
independent of responsibility, is better than
that of the people, why, then, adopt that Of
the Bashaw of Egypt and send out your dep
uties over the land, with the tax bill in one
hand, and the scimetar in the other, touch and
take-and, in case of refusal by any of the sub
jects of this newly constituted Nicegerent of
the Moslems, to pay the amount demanded for
county purposes, let the scimetar take an equiv
alent in ears and noses, to satisfy the demand,
and let all the people say, amen. S.

Sour HERNER's PLEA FOR OFFIcE.-Mr
R. Ridgway, a candidate for Congress from
the 9th district of Virginia, publishes very
peculiar card in the Richmond Wing. The
followingi is an extract
Being exceedingly ambitious of represent
ing the Swabians of the Tenth Legion in the
Congress of the United States, take this oc-
casion, unsolicited and unasked, to announce
myself candidate for that distinguished honor.
What l am, and what have done, Swabians,
have now told you. If you can find it in
your hearts to vote against me, you are not
the men your fathers were, and whom have
often heard General jackson speak of with
tears in his eyes. Should you vote for me, as
] hope and believe, and thus elect me your
Representative in Congress, no invaders foot
shall ever profane the sacred soil of the Tenth
Legion, but in peace shall you live, and in
prosperity, and in the divine enjoyment of
crout, for the remainder of your days. Your
friend, admirer and fellow citizen,

best of the series, thus far. The following is the
concluding paragraph:
Return, then, mysterious traveller, to the depths
of the Heavens never again to be seen by the eyes
of men now living! Thou hast run thy race with
glory; millions ofeyes have gazed upon thee with
wonder; but they shall never look upon thee again.
Since thy last appearance in these lower skies en-
pres, languages and races of men have passed away
the Macedonian, the AleXandrian, the Augustan, the
Parthian the Byzantine the Saracenic the Ottoman
dynasties sunk sinking into the gulf of ages Since
thy last appearance, old continents have reapsed in
to ignorance, and new worlds have come out from
behind the veil of waters. The Magian fires are
quenched on the hilltOps of Asia the Chadean seer
is blind the Egyptian hierogramnatst has lost his
cunning the oracles are dumb. Wisdom now dwells
in furlest Thule or in newly discovered worlds be-
yond the sea. HAPPY when, wheeling up again from
the celestial abysses thou art by the
dwellers on earth the languages speak shall also
be forgotten and science shall have fled to the utter
most corners of the earth But even there, His
hand that now marks out thy wondrous circuit
shall still guide thy course; and then Hesper
Will smile at thy approach, and Arcturus with his
sons rejoice at thy coming"

THE FRANKLIN TRAGEDY-The funeral OF
Miss Susan V. Whiting, who was shot on
Monday night by her rejected sutton, Mr. JON
athan Wales, was solemnised yesterday, in
the Baptist church at Franklin Center. The
funeral of Mr.. Wales will take place to-day,
at IL o'clock, from his fathers residence.
This fearful tragedy has plunged two highly
respectable families in mourning for the re-
mainder of their days. Each of the deceased
had borne good character. Each leaves, in
addition to parents, number of brothers and
sisters. A brother of the murderer and suicide
married sister of Miss Whiting 1t would
seem that the terrible deed was deliberately
planned. AT the party which both of the de-
ceased attended, Wales either blew out the
lights or attempted to do so, when, it is sup
posed, he designed to perpetrate the acts which
he performed subsequently,

New YORK RoUTEs.-The opening of the
railroad route between New York and Boston,
via Providence and New London, does not ap-

season, as it has been for the last fortnight.
The second, or evening trains, Saturday, each
had about 100 through passengers. A CORE
spondant of the Hartford Courant gives dole
full account of his experience of the New Lon
don route: starting from Boston at 8 A. NJ, he
had to pay SIS so for passage, or half a dollar
more than the old line, got some burned India
rubber in place Of the Massasoit dinner, stop
ped at every station, changed cars three times,
and reached New York at O'Clock, ?, M.

considerable attention, and not less SO the
course of the Republican members in the
House of Representatives. Some of them, it
is understood, will vote for the admission, and
among them the Representative from this
District Mr.. Thayer is already censured, in
certain quarters, for his expected vote. Should
he so vote, he will doubtless give his reasons
for so doing, and we think he should be heard
before he is condemned. A man does not, by

AUSTRIAN Italy, as the intelligent reade

AUSTRIAN ITALY, as the intelligent reader
is aware, is in state of intense political ex-
element. The people of Lombardy are es-
pecially dissatisfied with the Government, and
are ripe for revolt. This discomfort is greatly
heightened by the popular belief, that war is
brewing between Austria on the one hand, and
Sardinia, aided by France, on the other This
idea is strengthened by the very recent con-
duct of Louis Napoleon towards the Austrian
Minister resident in the French capital; and
we shall not be surprised if the Spring finds
Southern Europe lurid with the blaze of war.
The French Emperor, it is believed, is DESTROYS
of giving employment to his half million of
standing soldiery; and no field of operations
demands them more, or promises more glorious
results, than the old battle-ields of Italy. Aus
tria having the larger foot-hold in that quarters
not disposed to permit France to exercise
controlling voice, where she thinks her own
should bear the greater authority. But Aus
trian rule is so unpopular in Italy, that open
revolt, in its own provinces, is only kept down
by the presence of a hundred thousand bayou
cts, aided by tEa restraints of the Government
of Piedmont But the people of Piedmont are
not disposed to exercise any such friendly of
ice while its Government is sorely tired of
the unpleasant and ungrateful task.
Under these circumstances, the dream of
Italian Liberation-a dream INDUCED in by pa
triots, beyond as well as beneath Italian les
may become reality, in so far as Aust
shackles are concerned. But, in the evene i.
the Intervention of France-without which the
Italians could not, at present, expect success
perhaps they would find, in the end, that they
had only exchanged the yoke of Francis Joseph
for that of Louis Napoleon. But, even should
this follow, there would be some cause for con-
ISOLATION, for French rule has not yet degenera-
ted so low, so mean, or become so unbearable.
