THE CAMPAIGN IN CONNECTICUT.

The news frem Connecticut assumes
much more cheering character as the can
vass progresses. We notice more con-
iidont tone in the Republican press Of the
State, while the Democratic journals are
manifcstly weakening both in pluck and as
surance. What looked to them bright and
hopeful week or ten days ago is now only a
matter Of doubtful speculation and uncer-
tainty." We do not believe that with the aid
of the few Republican soreheads in the
State, (who have grown ''small by degrees
and beautifully less" as the cavass has deep
ened in interest and Importance to the great
National party looking to triumph there, as
elsewhere, throughout the country tits pos
sible for the Democracy to break the force
Of the Republican blows now being dealt
them in the canvass. The election comes
off on Monday next, and we are confident
the State will follow the lead of New
Hampshire in rebuking the boilers and re-
newing its fealty to the Republican party.

ANGRY WORDS

Angry words die lightly spoken :
In rash and thoughtless hour, ;
Brightest links of life are broken
BY their deep, insidious power.
Hearts inspired by warmest feeling
Meier before by anger stirred,
Oft are rent past human healing
BY single angry word.
Poison drops of care and sorrow,
Bitter poison drops are they,
Weaving for the coming morrow
Saddest memories of to-day,
Angry words, o let them never
From the tonge unbridled aip;
MAY the hearts best impulse ever
Check them, ere they soil the lip.
Love is much too pure and holy,
Friendship is too sacred ter 1.0 ..
Fora moments reckless folly,
Thus to desolate anG mar
Angry words are lightly spoken,
Bitter thonShts.a are irashly stirred,
Brightest links In life are broken
By a.single'angry word. ~.>-

AN IMPORTANT CONSIDERATION -
DR.. TUFTS Liver Pills are purely vegeta-
ble and are adapted to young and old,
male and female, and may be taken at
all times, without restraint of occupa-
tion, without change of living, without
diet, and without the fear of taking
cold, during all kinds of weather, and
in all climates.
Dear Sir-You make two preparations
which, it appears to me, are worthy of q
more general acceptance than they have
had as vet, probably because they have
not been "putfed" in the newspapers.
I allude to your Liver Pills and Aromat-
ic Elixir of Citrate of Caffeine. The
former have been used in my own case
torpor of Liver-and In my family with
superior In all hillary arrangements to
any pills now made. The Caffeine is
the only remedy that has, in my expert
ence, proved etfectual for nervous head
aches. 1t never fails, and the relief it
affords Is delicious; for not only does
the pain cease, but pleasant exhilara-
tion supervenes, and suffering is con-
verted to pleasure. A vial Of 1t is kept
ut home and one at my office, that I
may never be without 1t IN case of need.
Very truly yours,
Joseph P. Carr, Attorney at Law.
SIXTEEN YEARS OF SUCCESS. I'm
1855 the now famous Mustang Liniment

cations, lotions, ointments, and other
external remedies, imported or domestic,

False theories Over&hrown.

We live under q new medical dispensation,
very different from that under which so many
of our foretathers died. The sick are no longer
bled till they faint, nor gorged with mercury,
nor Frustrated with violent cathartics, nor Bills
tered on their shaven heads. Ever since the
introduction of Hcstetter's Stomach B!tterG,
twenty years ago, renovation ana restoration,
not depletion and prostration, have been the
watchwords of the judicious portion of the pro-
fession. Tue remarkable success of this famous
vegetable preventive, invigorant and corrective
has worked complete revolution in the gener-
al treatm mt of disease. At first the dog matte
members of the faculty would not believe in
it. what! they exclaimed, ''cure liver cozL-
plant without mercury, chronic rheumatism
without cClchicuIn, fever and ague without
quinine Impossible :" But the most obstinate
incrcdulity must yield in the end to practical
demonstration. From that time to the present
dyspepai2, biiliousness, intermittent fevers,
muscular diseases, nervous complaints and con-
stpation have vanished under the operation of
the great specific, in at least ninety PEE cent.

and uniform as to secure the most perfect
confidence in its properties an antidote, safe

MISUNDERSTANDING the entire Of the past

GRAIN.-CoRN.-Duringt the entire Of the past
week Corn has been in very active enquiry.
The demand from country consumers and deal
ers continues good and with a daily decreasing
stock, with receipts adding no very great addi-
ton. tho market has been looking up and car
go sales show an advance of OK cents over last
week. Several cargoes have arrived which
sold as follows: Two containing 1900 bushels
at Sc cents and two others containing
5,100 bushels on private terms. The receipts
from all sources are as follows: From Hyde and
adjoining counties, 300 bushels; from Phila-
delphia, 1886 bushels from Baltimore, $50
bushels, and by Wilmington Sc Weldon Rail-
DAD, 500 bushels. The stock is light and is es-
tiInated not to exceed 10 900 bushels. The en-
quiry Is good and sales made from store at
95 cents per bushel-highest figures includ-
ing sacks--CATs.-We have no change
of Importance to note. The receipts are liberal,
and the stock is fully large for the demands.
Sells from store at 20 to 70 cents per bushel.
-PEAs-The receipts have been over COO
bushels, which have made a large addition to
the stock. The enquiry is light, and quota
lions are unchanged. Cow sells from 81 O5
to 81 10, and white 81 20 to 81 25 per bushel'
PRovIsIoNs.-In North Carolina Bacon we
have no material change to note. The market
has been quiet with the usual demand existing
good stock and receipts liberal. Dealers are
selling at the following quotations s55 to cts.
for shoulders, OK to 1O4 cents for sides, 10K to
II cents for hog round, and E12H to 13K cents
for b ans, as in quality. WEaTERN-The advance
in the Northern market shows the same effect
on our market, and our quotations to-day show
an advance Of full 4 cent The stock Is very
light, receipts small and demand good at the
following figures SMoKED-6 to ~ cents for
shoulders, to94 cents for sides, and Is to
I5X cents for hams DRY SALTED-6X cents
TOR shoulders, and74 to 81 cents for Sides
LARD-North Carolina is In good stock, and
with the usual good demand. Sells from 1OX to
TX cents per h., as in quality.
FLOUR.-The market is supplied with about
the usual stock, which is sufficient to meet the
immediate wants. The demand continues fair,
and we note fair business doing In both
Northern and tate brands, and refer to our
table of Wholesale prices for quotations.
FREIoHTs.-Rates are high to New York by
steamrr, but to other ports are easier. We refer
to our table for last rates paid.

TAR-The light receipts during the past
week and very heavy shipments reducing
the stock materially, has had good effect
on this article On Friday at the opening OF the
day the market was very firm, sellers refusing
to make sales unless at better figures, and buyers
unwilling to pay advanced rates, were backwald
in coming into the market, though sales were
made in the evening at an advance OF 10 cents.
Saturday shippers were the market, but re-
cetvers had only a light stock, which they held
at higher rates and buyers to effect operations,
advanced the market 8 cents. Monday a still
further advance of cents was obtained. The
market has ruled firm since then, with buyers
purchasing where suitable lots could be obtain
ed, at unchanged quotations. The receipts have
been very small, and with heavy shipn2e nts, the
stock is much smaller than last weeks. Market
closes firm with a strong undertone at 81 IS per
Dbl. The receipts and sales for the week are rs
