How About Elijah?

A Methodist minister was OH n is
travels through the west of Illinois
twenty years ago. Illinois was wild
place then. He travelled twenty miles
one day before coming To a farm
house. But there he was received
with hospitality Chicken pOt-pic
and corn-dOdgers composed his sup
per; but 10 II hungry man these are
;is good rs Il truiiitl turkey: .
A fine old gIandmOthcro the house
was most profuse i'm her hospitality.
She. pressed the pot-pie ON the holy
mans plate till he cOIrld eat no more
And then, when the family was gath
.erpd around the great log chimney and
its blazing fire, the venerable dame
opened her month and thus spake.
,"Ah, well-a-dayi it's II grand COM
fort TO have a minister of the Gospel
in these parts, It's twenty years
agOne now since / have seen in 'em.
Pve been readin' % my Bible all
chat time, and awatin' to see a minis
ter to AK him 4 question about suthin'
| don't rightly understand"
"Ma1am," answered the cautious
minister, II am so tired with my long
ride that l could not enter into scri-
1IIs question till / have slept; but if
yO,i will ask me tomorrow morning,
before / set out, i will answer it to the
best of my ability" -...
The old lady expressed herself satis-
fled, and the cunning minister secuF-
ed soft couch for the night The
next morning grandma was up early,
and hard nj work frying slapjacks for
the ministers breakfast. This last
being dispatched, the old lady was
still in nervous fidget about her
question, while the holy mans horse
was saddled and brought TO the door.
After adjusting his saddle-bags and
shaking hands with all the family, lac
mounted his horse, and turning to
her asked: .-5I -.i
"And now, Madam, what is your
question:
"Wall, minister" said she, eyer
know how il seq i'm the Bible, that
arter Elisha was made 4 prophet, the
heaven opened and Elijah was taken
up to heaven i'm u chariot and horses
a. fire. It's better nor twenty year
sim seed that ere i'm the Bible, and |
have puzzled over it ever since; and
there amt one. rOun' the diggins
knows any more nor /. But you're a
minister % the Gospel, an ought to
know all them things. Now, what ]
want to know is this: Did the Lord
take up Elijah right slick to heaven,
or didn't he so kinder slantendiclar?U
History has no record of the minis
ter's reply.

Health's Best Defence.

''The weak eateth herbs" says st. Paul, SO
that eighteen hundred years ago the value of
medicinal plants was appreciated. In the Old
Testament botanical remedies are repeatedly
recommended, but in no passage of sacred his
tory is man recommended to swallow calOmel,
or blue pill, or any other mineral preparation.
The sick were directed to eat herbs to strength
en- them to purify them, to heal them, to re-
store them. In that day the art of making
vegetable extracts was unknown. The herbal
medicines were mere infusions.
1t was reserved for later age to unite the
sanitary essences Of tonic, aperient and anti
bilious roots, banks, and plants, with an active
stimulant, and thus secure their rapid diffusion
through the debilitated or disordered system.
The browning triumph of this effective mode of
concentrating and applying the virtues ofmed-
icinal vegetables was achieved in the produc-
ton of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. Never
before had perfectly pure alcoholic stimulant
beer combined with the expressed juices of the
finest species the vegetable kingdom. Never
yet, though eighteen years have elapsed since
its introduction, has this great restorative been
equalled. 1t is taken at all seasons in all
climes, as the most potent safeguard against
epidemics, as protection againsta all unhealthy
exhalations that produce debility or beget dis
ease; as a remedy for intermittent and other
maarious fevers as an appetizer; as a sover-
eign cure for dyspepsia; as general tonic and
invigorant; as gentle, painless aperient; as a
blood depurent; as nervlne; as a cure for
bilious aft ctiCns as harmless anodyne and
as the BEST DEFENCE OF HEALTH under unfavor-
able circumstances, such as sedentary pursuits,
undue bodily or mental eXertion, hardship,
privation and exposure.

Our Railroad.

The Prince Georgian of last week says
Our Railroad contractors have all now very
full forces engaged upon their respective
works, and are pushing the same on finely
The Sheriff has summoned juries to meet at
Mortimer L. Wilson's, Esq, on the Washing
ton Branch, on Wednesday, the 29th, and on
Thursday, the both, at this place, to condemn
the right of way through some of the land,
to which title could not be otherwise procured.
They are also driving the piles and progress
ing very we'll with the construction OF the
bridge across the Collington Branch, just out
side the town, the heavy work upon the
bridges and culverts on the line above here to
the Patuxent being already completed, as al
so the masonry of the bridge across that river
near Governors Bridge.
Port Tobacco times, and Charles County advertiser. (Port Tobacco, Md.) 1845-1898, 1870-07-01
Elsewhere IL will ho coon fhof H.

@ Elsewhere it will be seen that the
Legislature Of Virginia has passed bill in.
cooperating company for the construction
Of q Railroad from the city OF Richmond 70
some point on the Potomac river in the coun-
ty Of King George, with the light to construct
branch from said main line to Fredericks-
burg, &c. The point upon the Potomac" is
to Be hereafter selected. We noticed the fact
last week that the U. s. Senate had passed a
Bill authorizing the Baltimore and Potomac
Road to extend their laterel branch across the
Long Bridge into Virginia, and that this COM
pany, by the completion of the Alexandria
and Fredericksburg Road, would furnish a
continuous and unbroken line to Richmond.
The company recently incorporated by the
Virginia Legislature, for the purposes above
named, it is generally understood, is under
the control of the hackers of the Baltimore
and Potomac Road. We are not versed in
Railroad Diplomacy" and if we were, we
would not profess ourself competent to solve
the enigma presented by the above. 1t is
evident that the Baltimore and Potomac Com
pany do not intend to build both the above
routes to Richmond. If the "man stem"
through Charles county is to be built, land
portion of the route below Marlborough is
being now graded,) it seems pretty evident
that the same company will not construct the
Alexandria and Fredericksburg Road. Every
indication points to the building of our road
in fact, portion of it is already under con-
tract. If it is not to be completed to the Po-
tomac-as Gov. Bowie pertinently asks
"Where is it to go?" AS the case now stands,
we.thnk the probabilities are in our favor.
But we confess our inability at present to see
through the panoplied darkness which at this
time seems to cover up the intentions Of the
great railroad operators.

To Guard Against sunstroke.

One who knows says it behooves every one
to take unusual precautions against sunstroke
and first of all avoid the use of stimulating
liquors. 1t is mistake to suppose that
"drink" now and then through the day will
help the system to bear up against the ener-
waiting influence Of the heat. A large portion
of the cases, Of sunstroke occur among those
of irregular habits. Avoid also the excessive
use of iced drinks when overheated. The
temporary refreshment they afford neverthe-
less shocks the system, and renders one par.
ticularly susceptible to sunstroke. 1t is a
prolific source, also, of diarrhea, cholera NOR
bus and the like. IF necessarily exposed to
the direct rays of the sun, wear wet hand
kerchief, a wet sponge or green leaves in the
crown. of the hat.

OBITUARY.

On Wednesday, June 22d, after protracted
illness, GEORGE PEARSON, infant son Of
MARSHALL and ELLEN CHAPMAN, aged months
and % days.
When the darling one, so long the first in
our thought, is removed from our sight forever
where shall we turn for comfort save to the
Good Shepherd of the flock who carries the lit
tie ones in his bosom and so lovingly tends
them in the Heavenly fold? Happy indeed are
we, if in times of deepest affection, our faith in
His overruling love shall turn ever our be-
into blessing and enable US to say
from the depth of she heart, ''Thy Will be
DONE" 'Thou alone doeth all things WE'LL"
Good took thee, in His mercy,
A lamb, untasked, untried;
He fought the fight for thee,
He won the victory,
And thou art sanctifed."
"Fold him, o Father, in thine arms,
And let him henceforth be
A messenger of love between
Our human hearts and Thee. - II.

n6- The contest between the former own.
ers Of the farms near Fortress Monroe and the
colored people who have been cultivating them
for the past six years is still unsettled. Sec
rotary Belknap rescinded the order of General
Sherman assigning troops to the aid of the
Sheriff in the execution of the writ of eject
ment, and an effort is now being made to
compromise the matter. The present tenants
assert that the lands have improved in valua-
ton four hundred per cent. by their cultiva-
ton, aud they propose to move off half the
crop which they are now raising.
