The Grand Jury would now call your
Honor's attention to a statement of the
accounts of each of the members of the

of the above, would beg leave TO refer to
another matter in connection with the
said Board which has come to our atten-
ton. George w. Waldran, ex-Judge of

lowed salary of $500 per annum. By
order of the Board of Commissioners,

His total salary during the whole time
he filed said Office, according to the act
of the Legislature, was to the amount OF
s5625; according to the act of the County
Commissioners, $3.50. Extra appropria-.
tions were also made to the amount OF
S2052 rs to make up losses on his warrants;
Another appropriation was made TO salo
Waldran, amounting to 5000, for the pur-
pose of enabling him to pay note IN the :
hands of Barbour Lewis, the Chairman OF
the Board of County Commissioners, Tor

introduced by Barbour Lewis himself, ne

Of many ingenious tasteful and difficult designs is
tire most perfect of all family sewing machines.
Any one who will take the trouble to examine the
merits of the different machines claiming attention.

mocracy would be if placed in pow
er. The currency would be inflated
as fast as printing presses could
manufacture the notes, and the
emission of greenbacks was not to
stop till hundreds of millions had
been issued to satisfy what he con-
ceived to be the demands of pro-
duction, industry and commerce.
the bonds were to be paid off in
these deprecated notes, the National
Banks extinguished, and the old sys-
tenn of State banking restored. In
brief, the theory of Mr.. Pendleton
was announced with such absurd i'm
provements as a financially unedu-
Gated demagogue would be apt to
add. fs.
On the other hand, General Hayes
took the substantial grounp that the
deDt must be paid in coin or it's
equivalent. dollar for dollar, the
true course being not to increase the
existing volume of currency, but to
appreciate it's value by an honest
collection of the revenues, an eco
nomical administration, and the rap
id reduction of the debt That there
might be no mistake as to the pol
icy of the administration, Secretary
Boutwell, appeared in Philadelphia,
on the eve of the election, and, in
an admirable speech, declared it to
be the purpose of the Government
to be to pay the public debt, "prin-
cipal and interest, according to the
terms of the contract, and in coin,
or that which men receive as the
equivalent of coin" He pronounced
all other schemes delusions, and as
serted that there is but one way out
of fhe difficulty, which is that of the
honest merchant-s'that is, to meet
his obligations manfully, and fulfill
them to the last cent, if he has it.
He showed conclusively that the
American people have the means,
and can pay off the entire debt i'll
fourteen years, at the present rate
OF taxation, or in twenty-five years
if the taxes are reduced, and we pay
but fifty millions of the debt per an
mum.
Mr.. Pendleton's strength lay in
the supposed popularity of his finan-
cial plan. But when the issue was
squarely made, the people voted it
down, and it's author with il. Meth
er Cary's extravagant oratory nor
Mr.. Pendleton's suavity were of any
avail. The course of the Admins
tration stands indorsed l:y the peo-
pie of Ohio and Pennsylvania, and
will grow in favor with them if it is
known at the end Of each financial
year that one hundred millions of the
public debt has been extinguished
TO accomplish this is the ambition
of the President and his able Secre
tary, and they will work with an eye
single to that purpose.--Cinci,nat

skilled labor. We know and feel the Importance of
not only supplying the users of our machines, but
the trade generally with the bestqualty of AcHINE
TWIST which we sell by measure rather than by
weight. The system of selling by weight has given
manufacturers the opportunity of SO heavily weigh
ting Silk in the process of dyeing not only to
greatly injure its quality, but also convey wrong
Impression about its quantity. In this respect we
mean to be above suspicion. The manner in which
the sizes of silk graduated is also a matter OF
great Importance but we use the greatest possible
care that the graduating shall be exceeding accu-
rate In addition to manufacturing from the best
quality of raw silk, the evenness of thread and
beauty of finish of the manufactured article III not
We think, be soon surpassed Each spool of silk
manufactured by u.s. of any particular size letter.
irrespective of weight contains the number OF yards
printed thereon. Length, strength, size, quality
and finish of the thread to be looked to rather
than weight. We now silk manufacturers on a
arge SCALE and feel that large trade can only be
retained by in furnishing supeoior article at
ar price. If other brands of Twist be offered at
les price than ours, purchasers may rest assured
that it is inferior in quality, deficient in quantity
or both.
We have and shall keep in stock at our Central
Office and various agencies Twist of all sizes, and
of the various colors and shades of color In use,

The Last Illness of Ex-Prcsident
Pierce.


CONCORD, n. H., Oct S-The last
sickness Of ex- President Pierce COM
menced in a mild form abont five
weeks since, at Hampton Beach. 1t
was not at first considered to be a
dangerous illness, but he grew
worse rapidly, and in a few days
was taken to his home in Concord.
The family physician, Dr. Charles
2. Gage, was summoned, and he
found the President suffering
from abdominal dropsy, attended
with alarming symptoms. Prompt
treatment resulted in relieving the
patient About two weeks since
hiccough set in seriously, and con-
tinued at intervals for about ten
days. The dropsical difficulty had
been again relieved, but when it set
in the third time the system did not
seem to respond to diuretic medi-
cines. This physical condition, join
en- with inability to take much nour
ishment, caused Mr.. Pierce to com
mence sinking and he continued to
fail gradually until death. He was
conscious to the last, and had suffi-
cient strength to converse up to
within two hours of his discease.-
He conversed frequently during his
sickness upon public and national
matters, and expressed a deep in
terest in and anxiety for the welfare
of the country. He talked freely of
the public men with whom he had
been associated in political life, and
spoke personally of his former Cab
met members, and of many other
statesmen and representative men
in different parts of the country
AS death approached, his waning
strength did not permit him to. con-
verse, but to all appearance his bod
lily pain had left him. He lay qui-
city upon his bed, calm, happy,
and resigned expression suffusing
his countenance. At about five
O'Clock he looked around the room
for the last time, his eyes resting for
moment upon those in attendance
upon him, and then, as calmly and
sweetly as child would sink to its
rest, he closed his eyes in his fast
sleep, and passed away. He died at
the residence of Mr.. Willard Will
liams, on Main street, where he had
made his home, while in Concord,
for many years past. President
Pierce formerly attended the South
Congregational Church in Concord.
but few years since he Joined St.
Paurs Episcopal church, of which
he was a communicate. He left a
handsome property, which, it is I'M
derstood, is devised by will.
