1t appears from this table that the demo-
Gratis polled 1883 more votes this year than
they did last year, while the republicans were
able to add but 618 to their vote of 1866; or,
in other words, the democratic gain is 77-l0
per cent, and the republican gain only II per
cent. All the comfort that the radicals can
derive from these fgnres they are heaytilry
welcome to.-M T. World,

SrAuNToN THEspIANs. The Thcspians gave
another entertainment last Friday night, to a
crowded house, for the first. time in their dra-
matte costume. s.Faint heart never won fair
lady and the langhable farce Of "Box & Cox, Z
were given in style that did great credit to
the actors. Taking all things into considera-
ton they do well, and we are sure that there
is material among them, which needs only the
confidence Of each to bring them up to q high
degree of perfection. ewould suggest, for
the benefit Of many, that the night Of perfor
nance be changed SO asnot to bring the meet
ings of the Lyceum and their entertainment on
the same night Another good move would be
to have foot lights, which would cost little and
add much to the appearance and comfort Of
those on the stage, and be much more pleasant
tothe audience. At future day we will sug-
gest other change the present We will
say to the gentlemen of the association, you do
well, and can do better-faint heart never
accomplished anything. The audience does
not observe constantly any one Of the actors.
Forget all else but the part you are acting, and
in reading if the proper word does not come
at once, use that which expresses the same; il
may have better effect, and, even saould it
not suit, few will know the d..lrerence. We
have heard old actors say ..nat it must be done,
and is the secret Of success in many instances.
These entertainments cost little; the object is
a good oE-e and worthy Of the patronage Of the
ei1:.Acns Of town, and country friends. !,

when it had assumed its most formidable as
pect, and when speedy death appeared to be
inevitable. His physicians pronounced his case
incurable, when he commenced the use Of his
simple but powerful remedy His health was
restored in avery short time, and no return Of
the disease has been apprehcnded, for all the
symptoms quickly disappeared, and his pre-
sent weight is more than two hundred pounds.
Since his recovery, he has devoted hisatten-
tion exclusively to the cure Of Consumption
and the diseases which arc usually complies
ted with it, and the cures effected byhis med
icinss have been very numerous and truly
wonderful. Dr.. ScnEscK makes professional
visits to several of the larger cities weekly,
where he has a large concourse Of patients,
and itis truly astonishing to see poor consump-
tives that have to be lifted out Of their carri-,
ages, and in few monthes healthy, robust
persons. Dr.. ScHEscK's PULMoNIc SYRUP,
SEAwEEn Tonic, ond MANDRAKE Pills are
generally allrequried in curing Consumption.

Full directions accompany each, SO that any
one can takcthcm without seeing DR.. Schenck,
but when it is convenient it is bestto see him.
He gives advice free, but for a thorough ex>
animation with his Respirometer his fec is

two licensees Of the Doctor-one when in the

now is. in perfect health-are on the Govern
ment stamp.

INSURE Your LIFE.-Timcs like the present
make most manifest the peculiar benefit of
lifeinsuranco. Business,.is interrupted. Men
are anxious for the future. Thousands have
families growing up around them whose prop
erty depends upon the continuance of the
fathers life. Should he die, the income
would cease; the children must be withdrawn
from school the mother and elder children
must resort to every expedient to sustain the
family; and, in may eases, with the utmost
exsrrion, this cannot be done; the wife will
return 70 her father for support, and the chill
dren, separated, must go, the older to seek
work, and the younger be distributed among
friends. Such reverses befall men the least
expecting them. While business is active, and
prosperity gives exhilaration and hope, men
casi hardly be made to feel that they are
within = hands breadth Of utter reverse, and
that their families may be scatteredin month
by the death of the father. But hard times
lsaa men % think pf thss9 things.
