The Union is terribly exercised because
we reminded the saloon keepers that Judge
Guyer promised to dismiss all liquor prose
cutious that would be brought before him, if
they would only vote for him. With its &C
customed SHIRE wdness it says:
"The Argus malice is alone exceeded by
its ignorance. The youngest apprentice IN
the Office could have informed the editor that
indictments made BY the grand jury are act
ed upon by the Circuit Court, and that the
County Court, over which Judge Guyer pre-
sides, has no jurisdiction in criminal cases "
just so, and what an ignorant fool Mr..
Guyer must have been to have made such
promise.

a Nice Girl.

Though that desirable class Of girls is by
no means extinct, still they are not 80 numer-
Gus as might be wished. There is nothing
half so sweet in life, half so beautiful or de-
lightful, or so lOveable, as q nice girl. Not a
pretty or dashing girl but nice girl-one
Of those lovely, lively, good-hearted, sweet
faced, amiable, neat, natty, domestic creatures
met within the sphere of "home," diifusing
around the influence Of her goodness, like the
essence of sweet flowers
A nice girl Is not the languishing beauty,
dawdling on sofa, and discussing the last
novel or opera, or the girahe-like creature
sweeping majcstically through the drawing
room The nice girl may not even play or
dance well, and knows nothing about using
her eyes or coquetting with a fan. She never
languishes, she is too active. She is not given
to sensation novels, she is too busy. In pub
lie she is not in front, showing her shoulders;
she sits quiet ard unobirusye at the back OF
the crowd, most likely. In fact it is not often
we discover her. Home is her place.
Who rises beiimes and superintends the
morning meal? Who makes the toasts and
the tea, and buttons the boys shirts, and
waters the flowers, and feeds the chickens,
and brightens up the parlor and sitting-room?
Is 1t the languisher, or the giraffe, or the ele-
ganic? Not bit of il; it is the nice young
girl
Her maiden toilet is made in the shortest
possible time, yet how charmingly il is done,
and how elegant her neat dress and collarl-
Not presenting her cheek or brow, like "fine
GIRL" but an audible smack, which says
plainly, love yol ever so much" If you
covct anything It's one of the nice young
girls kisses.
Breakfast over, down in the kitchen to see
about dinner, and all day long she is up and
down, always cheerful and light-hearted. She
never ceases to be active and useful until day
is gone, when she will polka with the boys,
or read, sing old songs, and play old tunes to
her father and mother for hours together. She
is perfect treasure, is the nice girl When
sickness comes, it is she who attends with un-
wearing patience in the sick chamber There
is no risk, no fatigue that she will not under
go; no sacrifice that she will not make She
is all love, all devotion. / have often thought
it would be happiness to be i'll, to be watched
by such loving eyes, and tended by such q
fair hand
Ono Of the most strongly marked character
stcs of nice girl is tidiness and simplicity of
dress. She is invariably associated in my
mind with high irock, plain collar, and the
neatest of neck-ribbOns, bound with the most
modest little brooch in the world. | never
knew nice girl who displayed prolusion of
rings and bracelets, or who wore low dresses
or a splendid bonnet.
say again, there is nothing in the world
half SO beautiful, half so intrnscally good,
as a nice girl. She is the sweetest flower In
the path of life. There are others far more
stately, far more gorgeous, but these we mere
ly admire as we go by. 1t is where the daisy
grows that We like to rest.

SALT FOR THE THROAT

An exchange says, In these days when
diseases OF the throat prevail, and particu-
larly dry, backing cough,which is not only
distressing to ourselves but to those with
whom we are brought into business contact,
those thus afflicted may be benefited by try
ing the following remedy. Last fall we
were introduced TO try what virtue there was
in common salt. We commenced by using
it three times u day-morning. noon and
night. We dissolved large tablespoonful
Of common salt in about halt tumblerfu Of
cold water, and with this we gargled the
throat most eIectualy, just before meal
time. The result has been that during the
winter we were not only free from the usual
coughs and colds to which, as far as our
memory extends, we have always been sub
ject, but the dry hacking cough has entirely
disappeared. We attributed it entirely to
the salt gargle, and do most cordially recon.
medd It to those OF our readers who are sub,
cct TO disease Of the throat"
