SOMETHING FOR THE Pooh Mara
man naturally seeks Tor an article which
will be Of the greatest service. This
seems to apply to medical remedies as
we'll as to articles of wear. When We
have an attack of the rheumatism. sore
throat, pain in the stomach or chest, or
any of the thousand -and-one ills which
human flesh is heir to, we at once look
around for some kind of relief. Bear in
mind that Lamberson's Poor Mans Nerve
and Bone Liniment has good reputation
in this vicinity, having been manufac-

which time it was used very successfully

There are set Of men in the country
and they are we'll represented in tbil
county, the main business of whose live
is Office seeking. They have NO princi.
pie, but because the Democratic party ha,
been in the majority in this county they
profess to bs Democrats. But they are
not reliable, and can only be trusted tc
stick to the party % long ~ il viii win.
Two years ago, after the adoption oi
of the Nahonys snti-vss platform
and the nomination of Judge Mason,
Jairus Neal and Others Of their stripe, i.
waa:svidsnt to the Office seskiaz clique,
the Democratic ticket of the State and
thscUunty was doonsd to ds6at. Hence
Clagets, Hedges, Allyn and the rest 'cu."
the party, joined the Union movement
and did their best to beat the regular
nominees OF the party, denouncing them
~ traitors for whom hanging was none
too good.
But soon, in conaeQusncs Of our de-
feats and the allow progress Of our arms.
there occurred revival in the peace par
ty and it gained victories over the friends
Of the Administrations in some Of the
States and seemed clearly in the ascend
ant 10 Lee county .gain. Then the Of
fee seeking clique gradually crowded over
to the peace platform and got under the
same dirty bed clothes" with Judge Ma
son. Jairus Neal, Geo. W. Jones, Maho-
ny & Co. Andnow you find them al on
the same ticket and the same platform
With the men they opposed and denoan-
ced y traitors Two ysars since.
Suoh men are unworthy the support or
confidence of any party, and have demon
strased their character again and again BY
bstraying first one party aud then aaosh-
or in their hot pursuit Of Office, just IS
their own selfish ends seemed to prompt
Why should honest and consistent Cop
perheads, if there Be such, support
Hedges and Allyn for Office, when they re.
member that Hedges and Allyn were
against the regular nominees Of the parY
two yesrs ago and would have done it this
year if they had shought their chances of
success better on the Union than the
Copperhead ticket! What obligation,
what inducements u there for any party
man to support and encourage such shame
less time-serving Office seekers, whose
sole aim is Office, and who are ready to
change as often as the majority soens
likely'to change! They beat the regular
nominees two years ago, and the friends
Of the regular nominees must be craven
hearted set if they now reward them with
an election to Office.

while Southern Democrats were ID favor
of slavery, Northern Democrats we're op-
posed to it. Time il now, that Northern
Democrats are in favor Of the slavery Of

white slavery now held BY their Southern
brethren. Time will be, how soon, that
Northern Democratic will take another
step in advance on 4 4hs platform pro-
mulgased By - 6outh, and viii declare

slavery of which the Bible speaks i the
slavery Of white men.
