GOOD HEALTH

Is a boon that comparatively few can boast
Of. Those who have enjoyed uninterrupted
health for series Of years imagine themselves
to be proof against disease, and are careless
with their diet and their dress Indeed. too
many of them are sowing the seeds of cUnsuInp-
ton, At Arst the slight but constant cough
attracts no attention, bat It Is only when the
disease increases In violence that Ii begins to
excite suspicion. The malady should az once
be checked, and for this purpose no remedies
equal " Dr.. Sieayhe's Compound SyrSp If
Wild Cherry and SarsdpariNd and Tar Pi}s. n
They cleanse the stomach, relax the liver and
put IL to work; then the appetite becomes
good; the food digests and makes good blood;
the patieat begins to grow in flesh the dis
cssed matter ripens in the lungs, and the pa
tcnt Outgraws the disease and gets well. This
is the only way to cure consumption.
To these medicines DC. Swaync of Phila-
delphia, owes his unrivaled success in the
treatment OF pulmonary consumption. The
" Wild Cherry Syrup" ripens the morbid mat
ter in the lungs, nature throws it off by an
easy expectoration, for when the phlegm or
matter is ripe a slight cough will throw il of,
and the patient has rest aud the lungs begin to
heal. To do this, the "Tar Pills. must be used
to cleanse the stomach and liver, so that the
wild Cherry Syrup" and the food will make
good blood. "Swnyne's Tar Pills act upon
the liver, removing all distractions, relax the
ducts of the gall-bladdcr, the bile starts freely
aud the liver IL SOON relieved the stools will
show what the Pills can do; nothing has ever
been invented except calOmel Ia deadly poison
which is very dangerous to use unless with

Civil War in France.

Dispatches from Paris give the de-

side of the city on Fril y. The loyal
lists stnrmed aud captured the position

forts. On Sunday the movement was
renewed, Fort Valerian and the advan-
ccd batteries Of the Versailles army
keeping up u steady bombardment OF
the insurrectionists, the shells falling
as far into the city as Champs Elysces
Several fights are reported at various
localities on the northwestern, western
aud southwestern side ofthc city, in all
ofwhich the army of Mcmahon won the
advantage and, in pursuance of what
seems 10 be his plan, steadily pushed
the rebels back towards the gates The
fighting was desperate, and the loss or
life great The Government troops
have now advanced so close to the walls
that the next movement will probably
be an cndeayor TO force way iuto the
city. A fotilla Of gunboats is on the
way down the Seine to assist in the
investment, and heavy siege guns are
being sent 10 ward Inside Paris dis.
order and tumult reign supreme, and

Connecticut!

The Radicals jubilated rather too ear.
!, over their supposed victory in Con.
necsicut. II now seems, although the
result is not beyond all possible doubt,
that the Democrats have reelected Gov.
Engiish aud other State officers. Ger
Gaia it is that the Democrats beat the
Republicans, and the only doubt is
whether there are enough scattering
votes to defeat choice by the people
and throw the election into the Legis-
lature. The Congressional delegation
is the same as bcfore--no calmly either
party. tst
This has been one Of the hardest and
closest political fights on record. Con
lnecticut is very close State. The
Democrats have carried it twice only in
u dozen years Grants majority was
5000, but in 1866 the Republican ma.
jority was reduced to less than 500. In
1870, on light vote, the Democrats
won by about 800 majority. This year
the Republicans were re ilforced by the
negro vote, estimated at something over
thousand, which under the operation
of the fifteenth amendment was cast for
the first time. Except for this new ele-
mcnt coming to the aid of the Rcpubi-
licans, the Democrats would have tri.
lmphed by an increased majority As
it is the probabilities are that the State
is ours in spite Of the negro vote, aud,
notwithstanding certain local discussions
which have damaged the party.
While we desired aud expected q
more signal victory, the result ought
not and will not discourage or dampen
the spirits Of the Democracy either in
Connecticut OF. the country. We now
reckon on Connecticut as hereafter q
reliable Democratic State. The Repub.
licans have brought their last man into
the field, and yet failed to beat us. The
Democrats will now reconcile their local
controversies and present united front
10 future campaigns, and the exhibition
of their strength in this election shows
beyond a doubt that with union aud
harmony they are sure Of victory

Money Digging.

lu Lancaster county, Pa, an old
woman has pretended to reveal hidden
treasure in a cave which contains SO.
100000 in gold, and vein of silver
six feet thick, This cave and niue.
according TO her statement, is on the
south bank Of Pcquea creek, near the
line Of the farms Of Eli Eshelman aud
Joseph Huber, and parties have been
digging there for six weeks 10 search of
the hidden treasure. Although the old
woman declares she eau see il with her
glass, it has not yet been discovered.
The Lancaster hteRgeHeer says:-At
that place there are twelve to fifteen
holes dug into the side of the hill
Some are but small while others extend
from ten to twenty feet into the hill
a large quantity Of limestone has been
taken out, which will no doubt form
Mr.. Eshleman's sixth of the treasure.
Mr., Eshlenan anl Mr.. Huber were to
have one third of the money to be divi
ded between them, the other parties
retaining two thirds. As Mr.. Il. has
lime kiln near the place, he will, prob
ubly (aftcr he gets his eyes cpcucd)
burn the stones into lime, to compen.
safe him partly for boarding these par.
ties These holes were dug for the
purpose Of fuding the mouth Of the
cave, said to contain this iumeuse trea.
sure. When they FIRST commenced
digging they said they would have the
gold before evening; but when evening
had arrived and the gold not being
reached, they were sure of getting it
before morning, and they worked all
nigkt, and have now been working six
weeks, with the same result The "old
woman'-as she is called in the neigh
horhood says that when she il at
distance, at her home, she can sec the
cave and money very distinctly, but
thaa The devils" having charge of it.
have so muck power in its vicinity, that
they are able 10 deceive her, When she
Is nea= them.
AS Mr.. Huber has the good sense
not to allow them to dig any loager on
his property, the woman is now very
positive that the cave is on his premises
A iew weeks ago, in digging at cue of
The holes, they came upon some soft
rotten rocks, Of y yellowlsh color, which
they took to be gold dust; siuce which
time they have been searching both for
the cave, aud for gold and silver ore.
She offers reward Of $4,000 Tor the
discovery of the cave.
Aboat three eighths of mile distant,
near the ether end of Mr.. Eshelmau's
iarn, aud adjoining the village Of Mar
ticville, they have also dug some six or
seven holes. At this place, they are as
they say in search of very valuable
silver mine. Some years ago an open.
ing was made iato the side of this hill.
aud slight trace OF the same kind OF
ore was discovered, that was obtaiaed
north OF the creek, IN Pequea township,
on what is kaoSn as the "silper mine
farm" This ore which was obtaiaed
ia small quantities, when the mines
were worked, consists principally Of lead,
but contains a small per ceutage Of
silver. As Mr.. Els hill is au extension,
of the ridge containing the SILVER
mines" it probably contains small quan.
titles Of this ore, us do several other
places ia that vicinity, but not in sui.
fcient quantities to pay for mining it.
