Colds In the Head.

The recent change in the weather has
produced many dad bad colds" in the
head A celebrated physician Of France
has discovered new method Of curing this
prevailing malady. Here is the prescrip-
tion.
I.consists in inhailing, through the nose,
the cmanations of ammonia, contained in a
smelling bottle. If the sense Of smell is
completely obliterated, the bottle should be
kept under the nose until the pungency Of
the volatile alkali is felt. The bottle is then
removed, but only to be re,applied after a
minute; the second application, however
should not be long, that the patient may
bear it. This easy operation being repeat
cd seven or eight times in the course Of five
minutes, but always very rapidly, except the
first time. The nostrils become free, the
sense Of smell is restored, and the secretion
Of the irritating mucus is stopped. The
remedy is said to be peculiarly advantageous,
to singers.

w have olten urged this much needed
improvement upon the readers Of the
Wvughman, but We fear lis advantages are
to little Appreciated There are but few
Localities where DRAWINGS would not be bene
fetal. Ev,li in soils with an open subsoi,
where deep drainage certainly is required,
some shallow drains may be useful to carry
oif orto husband surplus water. Many a
farm house Is 70 located that good deal Of
drainage is required to secure perfect health,
Except in cases Of diseased lungs, a dry at.
mo pherc is more hcal,htul than one loaded
With moisture, and the air that passes over
.tagnant moisture will not long remain pure
and healthy. So that in sanitary pcint Of
view drainage often becomes Of vast impor-
tahcc. %
The Metropolitan Sanitary Commission
Of London state some interesting facts about
drainage. For every inch depth Of water
drained off, and which would otherwise pass
into the air as vapor, they say as much heat
is saved per acre US would raise eleven
thousand cubic feet Of air one degree in-
Temperature. A recent Parliamentary re
port on the subject says, farmer vas asked
the effect Of some new draining, when he
replied. "All that ! know is that before it
was done ! could never get ont at night
without an ovcrcoat, but now l never put
one on me-" A doctor took one Of the
Sanitary Commissioners to a hill overlooking
his district. There said he, wherever
YOU see those patches Of white mi have
frequent illness, and if there Isl cess. pool or
other nuisance as well, can recon on typhus
every now and then. Outside these mists !
anu rarely wanted. .-.
ltmay not be generally known that damp
ness in the atmosphere gives double energy
to bad odors Of any kind. If everybody
could live on hill side, with good gravel
subsoil, we would find the average health of
the community vastly improved. Much
may be done by thorough drainage, not only
to improve the sanitary condition Of the To-
cality, butto warm up and improve the soil.
Try it. Massachusetts Phughmun.

3rd. That S453 10, with interest from
January 8, 1865, due Renehan g. Kirwin,
remains unpaid to this day.
Sequitur. That, if the Honorable Jos.
A. Chaplinc has "brains to spare" he has
ne spare money to pay his honest debts.
His "spare brains" therefore, are not
worth 1853 10; and if Reneban & Kirwin

they are said TO be bankrupts.
4th. That in order to avoid the pay
mept of an honest debt, he charged that
he was loyal, and the firm with which he
dealt disloyal, and asked therefore, that
the suit against him might be dismissed.
Sequitur. That he has taken adyan-
tage of law made only in the interest,
and for the benefit of rascals; and, if
this crowning act of infamy does not
forever damn him in the the estimation
of all honest and honorable men, moth
ing which his "spare brains" can invent

G. A. R

We learn that q branch of the so-call-
ed Grand Army of the Republic has been
established in this city, and that recruits
for the illustrions order are being active
ly solicited. Ii any soldier desires to
pledge himself to vote any and every
ticket that may be cut and dried for
him by Radical politicians, he cannot de
better than to join this oath-bound off
shoot of Radicalism. An exchange says
of it:
This organization is political in its
cha acter, and is used by the managers
of the Radical party for the purposes of
throwing dust in the eyes of soldiers.
This class of citizens are indaced to join
post of the Grand Army on the Plea of
old friendships and associations, and
when once in, then the chains of party
are tightencd, and demand is made
upoh them for political services.
In this State the managers of
tie Grand Army are among
the most desperate tricksters of the
Radical party. They care nothing for
the soldiers. Some of them have been
contractors, and sold shOddy coats, and
sandy sugar, aud bad coffee, to the men
IN the field, and now they are endeav-
Orlng to use the soldiers at the ballot
box to pnt more money in their purses.
We warn the "Boys in Blue" against
the Grand Army of the Republic. 1t is
cheat and a fraud of the most stu
ReuGOuS character.

The Town Election. in New Work.

The Town Elections IN New Hork'
The following (says the Buffalo
Courier is a summary of the results of
the city and village elections held In
this State on the Sd instant: Troy
elects Democratic Mayor by 1905 ma
jority, against majority last year of
245. Rochester re-elects a Democratic
Mayor by $50 majority gain of 492
since last year. Utica elects Demo-
cratic Mayor by 437 majority gain of
over 100. Elmira elects a Democratic
Mayor by 2O5 majority-last year so
Republican majority. Lansingburg
elects q Supervisor and Trustees, being
Democratic gain of over 300. Germ
ing gives Democratic majority of 78-
a Democratic gain. Rhinebeck elects
u Democratic Supervisor by over
100 majority-a Democratic gain of
300. Batavia, the home of the late Dean
Richmond, elects the whole Democratic
ticket by an increased majority
Yonkcrs shows q Democratic ma
jority of over 60. The Republi-
cans carry Oswego, Auburn, (the home
of Secretary Seward,) and the town of
Fulton, by reduced majorities. With
out counting the above, in the elections
in tifty-two towns, held previously, the
aggregates Democratic majority is 768-
a gain of69l since last fall, and of 300
since 1866. Similar gains throughout
the State would add %, 900 to the Dem
ocra'ic majority of nearly $4,000 last
November; and estimating the extraor-
binary Democratic gains already heard
from of the elections on the Sd instant,
the State will give, in round numbers,
100000 majority for the Democratic
ticket next fall.
