Is blessing v)uchsafed to few. Even
those who have been favored By nature with
strong constitutions and vigorous frames
are apt 70 neglect the precautions necessa>
ry TO preserve these precious endowments.
Indeed, as rule, the more healthy and 70.
bust man is, the more liberties he is in
clned to take with his own physique. It
some consolation to the naturally weak and
feeble to know that they can be 80 inyigo-
rated and built mp, by proper use Of the
| means which science has placed at their
| disposal, as TO have much better chance
of long life, and exemptions from disease
| and pain, than the most athletic Of their fel
| lows who are foolish enuogh to suppose
| themselves invu'nerable, and act accord,

II is not too much to say that more than
half the people of the civilized world need
| an occasional tonic, to enab Q them to sup>
port the strain upon their bodies and minds
which the fast life Of this restless age oc.
casions. In fact, pure, wholesome, un-
| exciting tonic is the grand desideratum of
the busy millions, and they have the article

s'amnal medicine, i. g. it imparts perman-
ent strength to weak systems an invigor~

and is sales have steadily increased. Conn
petitlye preparations have been introduced
dd hditaa, and. as far as the public is con-
cerned, da nauseum, in the hope Of rvaling
i; but they have all either persisted in the
attempt, or been left far in the rear. 1t has
been the great medical success of the pres.
ent century. and it is quite certain that no
proprietary medicine in this country is as
widely known. or as greatly used.
Ten lightning presses, running inces-
sanity lSundays excepted, the whole ear
through, barely supply the demand for the
Illustrated Almanac, in which the nature
and uses Of the preparation are set forth,

Walt for the Proofs.

There seems to have been manifest
a disposition on the part of some cit
lzcns of the county to bring into dis
reputc the good character of the Re.
publican candidate for County Su-
perintendcnt OF Schools. Whether
the disposition is engendered by NAL.
ice we do not know; certain it is that
industrious efforts have been made
to prejudice many Republicans
against HIM. A charge Is made at.
fecting his moral character in an es-
sential point, and letters are produc.
ed from parties in a place where he
formerly resided TO Substantive the
charge. II is the desire of some OF
these parties that the letters referred
to be published IN the REPUBLICAN,
and they have been forwarded to us
for that purpose.
In the mean while, we are inform.
cd that Mr.. Wilcox asserts his ablli-
" to prove the talsity Of the accusa-
ton by affidavits OF unquestionable
authority. In this state Of the case,
we do not feel that our duty leads us
into the publication of the letters, I'M
less the party sending them to us de-
sires them published in connection
with the affidavits. The accusation
is of a character, which, If not dis
proved, must neccssitate the resigna-
ton, by Mr.. Wilcox, of his place on
the tRepubIican ticket. If the aft.
davits, or other sufficient proof of the
falsiiy of the accusations are not re.
| ccived within q reasonable time, it
ought to be considered that they are
not to be had. In that case, we can.
not consider that we are inhibited by
any dictate of duty from the publ
cation of the letters. We sincerely
trust that no occasion will arse for
further reference to this matter, un.
less justice TO Mr.. Wilcox shall
prompt us to announce that he has
been proven innocent of all the
charges preferred.

Patrons of Hubandry.

Patrons Of Hubandry.
The busy season of the farmers is
now very generally over, and more
leisure is afforded for attention to
matters other than the daily labor OF
their farms. One of the subjects that
should, and doubtless will, claim
their thoughts IS tho organization
known as "Patrons of Husbandry.'
An early effort was made In this
county to organize Grange of the
order, but the organization has not
yet been fully completed, principally
on account of the difficulty of secur-
ing the attendance of the farmers and
others whose interests these Oranges
arc intended to subserve. Now, it is
to be hoped, something can be done
in the way Of placing a Grange in
every quarter of the county, if not in
every township. We are confident
that il our agriculturist and laborers
but fully understood the true rela.
ton OF this order to their interests,
they would come forward to a man,
and to woman, in aid Of its organi-
cation, and in furtherance of its ends.
The lama County Grange will hold
special meeting at Toledo, on
Tuesday, September 26, as per call
in another column. II is hoped that
all the members and others interest
ed will attend.

And 50 1t Goes.

No editor can be supposed to be
perfect, but it is amazing what large
number Of faults his own neighbors
will discover in him. While few
will discover virtues IN him, the
many only see ugly blemishes. On
ly let him tail, from any cause, to
omit mention of some item, consid-
cred by his censors to be important,
and he Is pronounced lazy or mat
tnntive to the duties Of his calling
1t he speaks OF matters and things as
they really are, or are seen by him to
be; he makes personal enemies. II
he CLOSES little in his comments on
current events,--smooths down
rough and ragged points-why, he is
bribed. 1t he perpetrates joke in
his columns, he Is light headed
cuss,-lacks stability. II he does MT
give a joke once in while, he is a
mullet. 1t he condemns wrong do
ing, he may be good fellow enough,
but lacks discretion, not properly
balanced. If he does Mt condem mn
wrong, but leaves it unmentloned, he
is coward. II he opposes the as
pirations of some politicians, it is to
CRAFTY spite, to revenge some fancied
wrong done him, is tool Of a
clique, &c. If he INDUCES in personal
tiles, however guarded and decent,
he is blackguard. 1t he does not
indulge IN personalities, his paper IS
dull and insipil, not worth reading.
Thus it goes no matter what he
may do, or say, he can't please ev-
cry body. 1t is, perhaps, just as
we'll that he can't, for it he did, he
would soon become proud, when he
ought to be kept humble and depend

Theft and Forgery

THEFT ana Forgery
On Sunday night, Of this week, James
kerns and Lester Waddington, Of Oneida
township, took the team of Testers father,
and loaded it up with wheat from the bin Of
Harry Sermons, who sides just over the
line in Carroll township. On Monday morn
ing they went to Belle PLANE and sold tn e
wheat, which amounted 10 forty three bush
els They changed the wheat ticket 80 that
it read one hundred and forty three bushel.
and drew money for the one hundred and
forty three bushels, from the bank. On Mon
day morning, Mr. Sermons discovered his
loss, and, with the aid Of neighbors, traced
the thieves to Belle Plain. There they were
discovered and arrested. Strange to note
they we>e released on repayment Of the
money to the bank and Mr.. Seemons. With
double crime on their heads, it is unac
countable that they were not held to an
9 wer for one or both.

for mercury in cases of diseased Liver. but
in Dyspepsia, when used in connection
with the German Ritters or Tonic, they act
like charm. Relieved by an ingenious
combination with four other yaluabie ingre
dents, of all tendency of gripping or other
distressing and painful results, they act
promptly and pleasantly. Two small pills
constitute regular dose. they are more
powerful and earching than the Mandrake
itself, and act upon and regulate the Liver
far more etfectually than Calomel, without
any Of its dangerous after effects. The
PODOPIlvLLlAN PILL is TO be regarded
as family medicine. They can be used
safely and to advantage in conjunction
with the BlTrERi or TONIC, or by them

The Speech OF Judge Hubbard,

At the Court House, last Monday
evening, was philosophical and his
torical exposition of the policy and
aims OF the Democratic party, show
ing the utter lack of any comprehen.
sive views in the leaders ofthat party,
either in the past, or the present, SO
far as the same bore upon the deveI-
opment and guidance Of the destinies
OF the Great Republic. The great
aim Of the speaker was, to exhibit
the great destiny and future great
ness OF the United States as a nation,
and then to show how important It
is that the molding Of her future
should be in patriotic, honest lead
cns. No one, familiar with the his.
tory of the Nation and of the Demo.
cratic party, could fail to conclude
with the Judge that our Nation must
be guided, directed and controlled
by the Republican party in order
that it may take its proper place in
the worlds history. For accuracy
OF detail, profoundness OF philosophy
broadness OF views, and comprehen-
siveness of historical study, the
speech of Judge Hubbard has not
been equallad, by any political speech
delivered in Toledo tor many years
It was powerful argument, and We
hope the State Central Committee
will keep the Judge on the stump un
til election day.

Robbery in Ricllland.

KODDcry In klcIlIand.
On Friday night of last week, some
one entered the louise of Samuel
Jackman, of Richland township, and
took twenty-seven dollars IN money
from the pocket OF his clothes, which
were hanging by the head of his bed.
The thieves went to the buttery and
eat two pies, leaving the empty
plates on the floor and the candle
burning on shelf. They took things
leisurely. The family had arrived
home from the State Fair that even
ing aud were doubtless too soundly
asleep to be awakened by any ordi-
nary advent of buglarious individu-
ais. We have not learned that any
clue to the thieves have been obtain
