An Oneida editor has taken his office
boy into partnership-giying his reason
that "Stephen had been to work for us all
the winter and wants his pay, and we
thought after he had been a proprietor a
short time he would understand that pay
ing help was not so easy"
Said a distinguished politician to his
SON. "Look at me! began as an alder
man, and here | am at the top of the tree
and what is my reward9 Why, when |
die my son will be the greatest rascal in the
United States" To this the young hope
full replied: eyes dad, when you die, but
not till then"

The COMING CoMET.-Some astrono-
mer gives the data of wonderful comet
which is to appear in 1870. He says:

northern sky; and be visible in the bright

stars, and put even the moon to shame
Nay, we are to have no nights. This bril-

make darkness visible.

The News From Paris.

1t seems almost useless TO comment at
present upon the kilograms from Paris.
All is in ferment and turmoil, and al.
though Republic has been proclaimed
and apparently put in working order,
the dispatches of to-day may show that
it has been overthrown and some other
form of government erected on
it's ruins. There is nothing more
uncertain than the result Of
a Partisan tumult, and we must be
be content to await the result. Human
foresight connot penetrate the veil, and
these ebulitions of popular feeling are
as likely to result in one way as in an
other.
Let us hope, for the sake OF hu.
mainly, that the sickening scenes OF
l79l,-92 may not be re-enacted, and
that, without bloodshed, the popular
turmoil may be finally composed
We have no news of the movement
of the Prussian armies. 1t were better
for France they would enter Paris at
once and bring order out Of the chaos
which now prevails. Despotism is
better than anarchy, and we do not hes
itate to say that French Republic, so
far as the past has shown, is little better
than no government at all.

The Situation I'm Missouri.

The political condition of the people
OF West Virginia has a parallel no.
where in the United States except in
Missouri, and even there the oppression
is not quite so severe nor the acts of the
registrars quite SO lawless and arbitrary
as here. But in Missouri they have a
constitutional provision DISTINGUISHING
all who aided in rebellion, as We have,
and test oath for voters and regis
tration law somewhat similar to ours.
But here the parallel ceases. A very
considerable portion Of the Radical
party in Missouri are in favor Of q let
up policy and, unlike some in this
State, have no intention of backing
down%hen they come to the polls and
are brought to the test. An amend.
ment to the constitution is pending,
which makes the issue squarely and is
hsmpered by no such trickery as char.
acterized the FLICK Amendment here,
and there is no doubt OF its adoption by
an overwhelming majority Of the pop
nlar vote.

Hoohand's German Tonic

Was compounded for those not inclined 10
extreme bitters, and is intended for use in
cases when some alcoholic stimulant is re-
duired in connection with the Tonic proper
ties OF the Bitters. Each bottle OF the Tonic
contains one battle Of the Bitters, combined
with pure SANTA CRUZ RUM, and Favored
in such a manner that the extreme bitter
ness of the BItters Is overcome, forming
preparation highly agreeable and pleasant
to the palate and containing the medical
virtues of the Bitters. The price OF the
Tonic Is $50 per bottle, which many per-
sons think too high. They must take into
consideration that the stimulant used Is
guaranteed to be of a pure quality. poor
