A Distinguished Methodist Minister
and prominent Temperance Lecturer
once remarked that go where he
would from one end Of the country to
the other, he hardly ever failed to find
Plantation Bitters and while he con-
demned the practice Of using these Bit
ters too freely, he could not conscienti-
ously say say that he would discard
them from the side-board, for the him
self had experienced beneficial results
from their use, and that, from long
and close observation, he was convin-
ced that when used moderately, and
as a medicine exclusively, they were
all that was recommended. At the
same time he warned his hearers not
to pull the cork too often, for they
were far too pleasant tonic to trifie
with.

TUE SINKING FUND.

Gov. Geary has issued the usual pro-
clamation, required by the act estab-
fishing the Sinking Fund, setting
forth the reduction OF the State debt, by
the application of that fund to the re-
demption of State bonds. The Gov
ernor fixed the amount of these bonds
thus redeemed at S2,414, ,816.64. This
looks very well, on paper, and, ofcourse,
the radical journals pretend to be i'll
transports over the 'tgreat reduction of
the State debt" as they triumphantly
style it. But the receipts iato the
Sinking Fund, annually, are from -,
O00,0O0 to $4,000 600. Under the pro-
visions of the Sinking Fund law, ev-
cry dollar Of that Fund is TO be appli-
cd to the extinguishment of the State
debt, yet, by the Governors procIama-
ton it appears that notone half Of the
annual receipts Of this Fund have been
applied to this purpose. What has be-
come of the other $4,000, ,000? Why
was Lot that also, applied to the re-
demption Of the State loans, as the
law requires? We're there too many
paster5 and folders about Harrisburg
last winter? Or were the demands of
the late political campaign SO urgent
that a secret service fund" had to be
levied out of the State Treasury? Stop
your blowing, Mr.. Radical, and explain
this matter.
The present Sinking Fund law was
passed by Democratic legislature and
approved by a Democratic governor.
Under its wise provisions even the
radical party, with such an ass as Geary
at its head, is enabled to pay of some
Of the State debt. But if Democrats
administered the laws, instead of only
one-half of the receipts Of the Sinking
Fund going to the payment of the debt,
every cent Of them would be thus ap-
piled instead Of $2,41I,S ,Sl6.64, at least
s., 600, 900 of a reduction would be made
annually.
So much for the annual flourish Of
trumpets, on the part Of Gov. Geary,
in regard to the redemption Of State
loans. All the radical braggarts can
make out of this, they can safely put
in the corner of their eye.

THE GREAT Music HALL ORGAN.
Since the introduction Of this noble
instrument, higher standard Of Organ
music has been presented to the public
and every Wednesday and Saturday
noon, the people from different por-
tions Of the country, who happen to be
iourneying through the city. gather to
listen to the tones Of the grand King
Of instruments, and thus the taste for
a purer style Of Organ music, has, in q
degree, been created. Even those who
have long studied the Piano, are begin
ming to desire a class Of music with sus-
tanned chords and suspended harm0-
nies, and many are introducing into
their homes the AMERICAS ORGANS,
manufactured by S. D. & II. ". Smith,
Of Boston, with which the excellent
Organ pieces may be So finely rendered
and enjoyed in the parlor. These in
struments have also greatly assisted in
elevating the taste toward a better class
of music, and have been very efficient
in developing the latent talent in the
home circle.-B0StOH Post.
