DR.. Dio Lewis condemns the free use of
tomatoes, as causing bleeding of the gums,
)oosening of the teeth, and irritation Of
the membrane lining the intestinal canal.
Though every article of human consump-
ton has been in turn denounced, from
beef, pork and flour to coffee, tea and
sugar, so that if one is to believe all the
doctors, his only alternative is to be
poisoned or starve, yet we think DR.. Lewis
is right in regard to this pseudo fruit, the
use of which is increasing from year to
year. Our observation in one OF two cases,
as well as reasoning from general princi-
pies, tend to confirm his testimony. 1t is
certain that well person does not need
medicine, for the very fact that it is adapt
ed to diseased state of the system proves
that it can't be also adapted to the opposite,
or healthy conditions, as in the latter case
it frequently creates the very symptoms,
that it cures in the former, fact which
all schools of medicine now recognize to
greater or less extent. The tomato is en-
inently medicinal, it having, as is well
understood, specific action on the liver,
as direct and almost as potent as mercury,
the analogous action OF the two articles
being indicated also by the secondary eff
feet on the gum and teeth. But as the
temperament and dietetic habits of Amer
cans predispose them to biliousness in the
warm season, a moderate use of tomatoes
DIR. Lewis says spoonful at a meal
may not only prove innocuous but ex-
tremely beneficial, while making princi-
pal dish of them, as is often the custom,
from their healthfulness having been so
much insisted on, should be discouraged.

THE GREEN SPOT.


The late Noah Winslow was fond of tel
ling the following incident OF his mer-
camille life, and he never closed the mar
ration but with swimming eyes:
During the financial crisis and crash of
51, when heavy men were sinking all
around us, and banks were tottering, our
house became alarmed in view of the con-
ditiOn of its own affairs. 's.
The partners-three of us, of whom l
was the senior-met in our private Office
for consultation. Our Junior had made
careful inventory of everything-of his
bills receivable and bills payable, and his
report was, that twenty thousand dollars
of ready money, to be held through the
pressure, would save US. Without that,
we must go by the board-the result was
inevitable. I went out upon the street,
and among my friends, but in vain.
Two whole days strove, and begged.
and then returned to the counting house
in despair. / sat at my desk, expecting
every moment to hear our junior sounding
the terrible words, ''our paper is profess
ted when a gentleman entered my de-
partment unannounced. / could not To-
cate him nor call him to my mind any
way.
''Mr. Winslow," he said. taking seat
at the end of my desk, Il hear you are in
need of money"
The very face of the man inspired me
with confidence, and told him how I Twas
situated 5a
.Make your individual note for one
year, without interest, for twenty thousand
dollars, and will give you check, pay
able in gold for that amount"
While sat gazing upon him in speech
less astonishment, he continued:
You don't remember me: but l re-
member you. l remember when you
were a member of the Experimenting
School Committee OF Bradford. was
boy in the village school. My father was
dead; my mother was poor; and was
but shabbily clad child, though clean.
When our class came out on examination
day, you asked the questions. / fancied
you would praise and pet the children Of
rich and fortunate parents, and pass me
by.
''But it was not as / thought. In the
end you passed by all the others, and came
to me. You laid your hand on my head,
and told me did very well ; and then you
told me l could do better still if / would
try. You told me the way to honor and
renown were open to all alike, no one had
free pass. All had to do was to be re-
solved and push on. That. sir, was the
turning point of my life. From that hour
my soul was inspired, and l have never
reached great good without blessing
you in my heart. have prospered and
am wealthy: and now offer you but
poor return for the soul wealth you gave
me in that by-gone time"
II took the check" said Winslow, 'and
drew the gold; and our house was saved.
And where, at the end of the year." he
added, lido you suppose found my note ?"
"ln possession" he said. with stream
ing eyes, "of my little orphaned grand
daughter! Oh. hearts like that mans
are what bring earth and heaven nearer
together Z"

FOR GOVERNOR.

-
Tomorrow, the Republican Party
Of Storey county will be called upon
to select Delegates to the State Con-
vention, upon which devolve the duty
OF placing In nomination q suitable
candidate for Governor of this State.
HoN. F. A. TRITI.E, we confidently
believe is and will be the choice Of the
party, so Tar as Storey county Is con-
cerned-and, We as firmly believe,
will be the chosen standard-bearer of
the assembled Delegates in the State
Convention. We favor the nomination
and election of Mr. Tritlc upon the
grounds OF his eminent fitness for the
position, for he Is one Of the very best
business mel In the State ; Is well
acquainted with Its different and
growing interests; Is largely in
terested In Its welfare and pros
perity and is permanently To-
.cated in the State ; and, we believe,
comes up to the old Jeffersonian stan
dard of qualification: Ills lie honest?
Is he capable" Anybody who knows
Mr.. Tritle cannot but give an afirmn-
tive answer to this proposition. Per-
sonally. he Is as popular as any mai
call be In this State-and he deser'es
rs few enemies as any other man.
Much could be said IN his favor, but It
Is hardly deemed necessary beyond
what las already been mentioned.
We desire to see n whole united heic-
CATION of twcnty-four In his favor
chosen by the party tomorrow, who
will 90 to the State Convention as one
man, and vote for Mr.. Tritle's nomi-
nation. VIII the staunch and true
Republicans of Storey county give a
favorable response Tomorrow? We
trust we shall be able to announce
such n result OH Thursday.

TIE Republican Convention OF
Michigan, held on Thursday last, NOM
mated a ticket and adopted a set OF
resolutions which might serve for a
model. Rea(irming their allegiance
to the great Republican party Of the
country, eulogizing the economic
course Of the Administration and Its
splendid reduction Of the public debt
and coming out boldly and mequivo'
cally for a protective tariff. these rcso'
buttons of the advanced Radicals OF
Michigan embody the aim and end Of
the RcpublIcanism OF the day. The
Democracy of the State held their Con-
vention a dry or two before, and
adopted a platform In which the STE
reotyped phrases about Radical ms
management were reiterated. and the
tariff denounced as n "system whereby
labor is compelled to pay tribute &c
capital"

A Mrrr,yo.-There Is to be a meet

A MEETlSo.-Therc Is to be a meet
ing of the First Ward Republican
Club of Gold Hill held this evening
so we see by a written call posted on
the streets. 1t Is not stated what the
meeting Is called for, and perhaps 1t
will be rs we'll for the members to be
on hand. At the meeting held OH Fri
day evening, n resolution or motion
was passed to close the roll list unit!
after the Primaries, and that no Re
publican should be allowed to vote at
the Primaries ualess his namc was
then signed OH the Club Roll. This
action is binding, unless the Club It.
considers the resolution already passed,
for the purpose Of admitting more new
members. There Is evidently n good
deal OF hard feeling among some OF
the candidates that further action
should be taken by the Club on the
subject. We have heard considerable
loud talk about it.-and whether fair OF
unfair, as the matter now stands, it Is
likely to come up before the meeting
tonight. Pro and con are likely to be
Oh hand.

i~nterccssion of Austria and Russia will
effect an armisticc, oil suspension Of
hostilities, until terms for peace are
agreed upon. Adviees from tho head
quarters of the Prussians mp to last
night, however, say that King William
refuses to recognize the French Repuo-
lie as a proper source to treat WITH
and that Napoleon, although n prls-
oner Of war, possesses the only ma
tioSal power to make a treaty, and to
make PREPARATION for damages. As
King William Is backed by Bismarck,
the acknowledged leading statesman
OF Germany, possibly he Is right, and
perhaps an armlstlce will be granted,
and hostilities close, until this delicate
diplomatic point is settled, which the
French people had better decide soon,
for the Prussians have gone to take
Paris, and they uiH be rery likely to take
it, or level it to ashes.

The ENFORCEMENT AcT.-The Bal
timore Sun publishes the opinion OF
Judge Hugh l.. Bond, Of the United
States District Court, in reference to
the Act Of Congress Of May 81, 1870,
for the enforcement Of the Fifteenth
Amendment Of the Constitution Of the
United States. The Judge holds that
it was not the intention Of Congress to
abolish the laws Of the several States
which prescribe the qualifications of
voters, or even to alter them, except
so far rs such disqualilcations are
founded upon race, color or previous
condition Of servitude. He quotes the
first section Of the statute, which de
clareS that it relates to "all citizens OF
the United States who are or shall be
otherwise qualified to vote and says
that the meaning Of this language Is,
that these citizens shall he qualified to
vote by the laws Of the State or Ter
ritory, and that these persons thus
otherwise qualified. shall vote WITH
out distinction Of race, color, or pre-
vious condition Of servitude. The
Judge also holds that the wrongful
act. or omission against which the
statute furnishes n remedy, ia the max
Ing among citizens otherwise qualified
a distinction OH account Of race. colo.
or previous condition Of servitude.
Hence. it was decided that a register
ing officer, who, in accordance with
the Election law OF West Virginia.
had refused to enter the name Of n
white citizen who had participated in
the rebellion. was not liable under the
Act of Congress. The Judge also de-
cided that the Act Of Congress only
operated upon the officers Of any cleo
ton at which any representative Oh
delegateg in Congress shall be voted
for, and TINT the registering officer
was moi such an officer.

TIE Force OF People
should be careful as to what they say
and do before children, for the imita-
tative powers Of the latter arc very
great. A sage Of antiquity taught
that the utmost respect was due to
them; and he was right. A bad word
or motion may indelibly stamp itself
on the child's mind, and tester there
until it has contaminated the whole
heart; and as children naturally look
up with respect or with a feeling OF
awe to the behavior OF their elders,
they frequently, if not always, initiate
them. One of the London weekly
comic papers supplies another instance
Of this propensity to follow suit" 1t
has a picture Of 4 little boy and a little
girl playing at father and mother
The girl, as the mother, with a doll In
her arms to represent a baby, asks the
boy, who prctends to be the father just
come home drunk, low much 'av ye
'ad?" The boy replies: "a pot and
a pint" Wlereupon the girl says
"Theu, now. you must knock me down
and kick me. and Ill 'ollcr ont mir-
der. P'lice!" The poor outcasts could
lind amusement ever out Of the ghastly
examples set by their drunken parents.

that it seems rs though his friends can

which have known him shall know him

sweet offering to his memory and to
the many good deeds which he per-
formed in life. and which are dearly
cherished by those who knew Of them,
and the good friend who so disinter-
estedly bestowed them. The follow
