HUNTSVILLE, ALAS September 5, 1896.
DEAR SIR: 1 had not known the luxury Of
a good appetite for more than twelve
months when l reached the Wells. l suf-
Tered much from that common, but terrible
disease, Dyspepsia. Before a week elapsed
my appetite was ~voracious, and my digeS-
suffering from Dropsy n Chronic Diar-
rhea. In three weeks he was entirely re-
lieved from the latter, and almost from the
former. 1 am satisfied by experience N
observation hat the water has extraOrdin-
airy curative properties in DYSPEPSIA, Dropsy
palitable, and much colder than most min
eral waters. l believe IL possesses as much
virtue as any mineral water in this country
and time Will prove it. &C CLAY, JR.
HUNTSVILLE, ALA, July IS. 1885.
SIR: 1 feel pleasure in giving a certificate
to the effect hat your watering place has
been of great benefit TO myself the short
time 1 stayed Tiers My complaint was
Chronic Ja1ndice, which was fast resolving
itself into Dropsy. When l came TO your
Wells my condition was truly sad, and my
none of SO early an eradication OF so long
seated a disfember was forlorns Your waters
To all who have Dropsy, Chronic Diarrhea,
Dyspepsia or Kidney complaints, eheeriully
recommend your Wells, believing at the
same time in their efficacy in other diseases.

The hrmer feeling announced in New
York, and the steadiness prevailing in
Liverpool caused factors in this market
to advance their views AGzc e the
prices ruling yesterday, and as a con-
sequence buyers were completely shut
out, as there was no margin. Middlings,
which Yesterday could be bought at 2lc,
to-day was held at 2lHg2lHc. The sales
were very small, footing up something
over 100 bales, and including one list OF
AZ bales Good Ordinary at lSZc. Some
" or three good sized tables are on the
market, and one factor to-day was open
ing up a list Of about 500 bales which will
average Low Middlings, and was offered
at 2lc, but no bid was made on it. An
other table, about half as large, Of the
same grade, has been on the market for
some DAYS. II also was offered at dc.
The market was not so firm at the close,
but buyers could not be induced TO take

PoULTNEY, VI, Aug. 22d, 1870.
Editor Rutland Herald The editor of the
Rutland Independent aided by it's numerous sy IN
path'zing correspondents seem deter mil ed to give
me notoriety ia this vicinity, for which perhaps

that the public VIII be further amused (if amuse-

independent and its correspondents.
Some time last spring the editor of the Lade-

while here put up at my house. He had what he
wanted to eat; did not call for any rum; drank
none while there to my knowledge. When he
left took nothing on his bill, extending the same
courtesy to him that often have to other editors
The next issue of his paper copy came to me
with very generous puff of myself and house
The paper kept coming regularly until few
weeks since, when from the continued personal
attacks upon myself, determined as had a right
to do, that would have it in my house no longer

says that it was returned with profane express

its sympathizers, and such display of "choice

The Independent is sometimes a little warm on

BURNING OF A WOOD PILE AT THE
SUMMIT. -- Soon after the passage of the
mail train for Boston, over the Ru tland
Railroad, which left here at 1920 yester
day friday afternoon, it was discovered
that pile of wood, containing some
twelve or thirteen hundred cords of sea
soned body wood, piled at the side of the
track about mile from the Summit sta
tion, was on fire. Information was
promptly telegraphed to the officers OF the
road, and Washington Engine No. 2, was
sent by special train, accompanied by a
large force of men. to aid in extipguishing
the fire.
Upon the arrival of the engine stream
of water was at once put on the fire, and
another body of men commenced at once
"channeling" the pile so as to stop the
spread of the fire. By these means the
greater part of the wood was saved, only
some three or four hundred cords being
burned. The engine and men returned
here at about half-past seven. The am
cunt of the loss we have not as yet ascer-
tanned.

exhalations of female toilettes that serve
TO transport one into the dream-land, and
recall nothing more substantial than Wis

feet and peeping ankles. Sleep put a

The Way to be Brave.

Speak kindly to that poor old man;
Pick up his fallen cane
And place it gently in his hand.
That he may walk again;
His bundle, too, replace with care
Beneath his trembling arm;
Brave all the tsunts that you may hear.
To give his life charm.
A drawer deed than scorners boast
Win be your triumph them
A Drawer deed than annals tell
OF some dis inguished men.
Yes, leave that thoughtless, sneerins crowd,
Dare to be good and kind;
Then let them laugh, as laugh they may;
Pass on, but never mind.
Pass on; but think once more of him,
The wreck that you have seen,
How once, happy boy like you,
He sported on the green,
A cloudless sky above his head,
The future bright and fair.
And friends all watching DER his couch,
To breathe affection's prayer.
But ali, the change he wanders now,
Forsaken, lone and sad
Thrice blessed is the task OF those
Who strive to make him glad.
Speak kindly to that poor old man,
Pick up his fallen cane,
For that will ease his burdened heart,
And make him smile again.
