Ftsn's LIANT HEATING ApPARArus.-Wc
have received from tho Kerosene Lamp Heater
Company the above excellent apparatus.
and after fair trial we can with pleasure add
our testimony to their superior advantages
over any other apparatus Of the kind we have
ever seen. For cooking in summer time they
are really Of great benefit, as they save the
trouble of building fires in stoves, etc. The
larger size will cook food enough for good
sized family. We can cheerfuly recommend
them to our friends both for their labor 81 wing
and economical qualities.

subjected 70 this treatment. But about three
months ago: the daughter Of rich Israeite
having been cnticed into convent of Felician
nuns, and then forcibly keps there. the father
complained 10 the Bishops, and after innu-

Although the citizens OF our county

who can't abide the wishes Of the peo-
pie. but must still, at this late day, ayi-
ta'e the subject. and put forth gigantic

date for Representative from This Dis

pointed to convention, which was to
be held next week, and when the aues-
tion was discussed regarding the in
sfruetions TO be given them, the whole
scheme was disclosed. and much COLI
fusion created. Mr.. Allen then moved
TO adjourn sine die, which received
second and was carried BY unanimous
vote. The meeting was attended by
some Of our most respectable citizens.
including the Grand and Petit Jurors.
and this decisive vote to adjourn sine
die. was an emphatic expression Of their
feelings adverse TO the further agitation
Of this subject. and fitting rebuke to
The agitators Of the question.

The matter, except in the following par
sgraph which We copy:
The soldiers found the independent
opposing the Convention. and almost
every citizen Of the place strong can
didate for office. and as matter Of
course opposed 10 these proceedings. So
they adjourned TO meet at Osawkee. DC
We opposed this Convention from
The simple fac, tha, it was no, called
by the soldiers. not even respectable
minority of them; that the call was
issued by men who had not the inter
es,s OF the soldiers at heart, further
than TO obtain their influence to aid in
their own politica! advancement. II
was an insult to the soldiers of oul
county the best way that Mr.. c. can
fix it up, and we are glad that they
have ihus shown their utter coniemp
Of the political jugslsrs. who sought ''
build up their fame upon the credit o.
our soldiers.
