Mr. GhEELEYs HOPE, AND THE DEMO
CRATIC PURPOSE.

The New York Tribune Of yesterday editorially
considers the Prospects" Its article is not
verydirectly and clearly expressed but the purport
seems to be that Mr.. Greeley strongly hopes for
the endorsement Of the Democratic Convention,
andhe speaks with no little severity of the Bour-
bon or fossilized element" of the Democratic
party, which, as he evidently fears, will certain
" oppose. and probably defeat, the result he
hopes for. AT the close of his article, he inti-
mates that straight Democratic nomination
would ''drive" the Liberal" movement 'off the
course"-in other words, II the Democratic Con-
vention sets up partisan candidate in opposi-
tion to the nominee Of the Republicans. Mr..
Greeley would probably withdraw, rather than
run the risk of putting Bourbon in the Presi-
dency.
Still, as we have said, Horace hopes for the
Democratic endorsement and that there will be
no candidate of that party in the field. This is
delusive hope. 1t will not be realized. The
present pretence that it may be is only made for
effect, and there is no intention in the minds Of
any number of Democrats, except possibly in the
South to accept Greeley. They want him to
believe that they may do so they want his fol-

be divided when this is done, their party nom
ination will be made, and Greeley, having been
used to perform the only work they required at
his hands, will be cast aside with contempt.
To Republicans, these facts are conclusive
They warn every man who does not desire to
see Jefferson Davis practically returned to the
control Of the nation that he must stand steadily
and faithfully beside his own party organization
which alone can protect and serve the country's
best interests in the next four years as it has in
the past twelve.

The Chester County Hog.
HIS ORIGIN AND WHENCE THE NAM

HIS ORIGIN AND WHENCE THE NAME
The following article is a very old one and
appeared in the Farm journal twenty years
ago 1t has probably been forgotten in that
time. and we, therefore, produce il here
" 1t appears from what we can learn that the
credit of introducing the Chester county breed
of swine is due to Captain James Jeifries, who
occupied farm on the forks of the Brandy
wine,a few miles from West Chester, after re-
tiring from the sea. His ship used to trade
between Liverpool aud Wilmington, Dell and
on one OF his voyages he procured a couple of
hogs from Bedfordshire, with the view OF intro
ducing them into this country. This was about
thirty-years ago. They were then called the
Bedford breed, and have been recognized by
Englishmen who were familiar with them about
that time in Bedfordshire. At present, the
breed of hogs there is not 80 distinct, having
been crossed more or less with others From
this origin they have been generally distributed
in Chester and surrounding counties, and are
now known as the Chester county breed They
are pure white"

Nervous Diseases.
THEIR PREVALENCE AND CAUSE.

THEIR fhENAlENCE AND CAUSE
The New York Times has the following inter
esting item:
Physicians tell us that nervous complaints
have never been more frequent than they are
in this city at the present time. Men are suf-
fering from nervous exhaustion, women from
Mysteries and extreme depression Of spirits
The cause is not difficult to be aseertained
During the cold, dry weather of February and
March, the atmosphere was surcharged with
electricity to an unusual and remarkable degree.
The human system was thus stimulated to an
unusual extent, and the warm, damp days of
April, in which the atmosphere was almost de-
void of electricity following Immediately after
the dry and cold days of the preceding two
months, produced feeling of nervous eXhaus-
tion such as the hard drinker feels when he
breaks his evil habit for few days. This expla-
nation, which is that given by one of the leading
physicians OF the country, is certainly founded
onfact, and seems extremely probable.

BE not swift TO Accuse.

The Jacksonville qll) Journal relates the
following singular occurrence, showing how
sometimes innocent parties suffer from unjust
accusations:
Fifteen years ago one Sam Steele worked on
farm for Mr. George Barbour, who lived mile
and half north of this place. One day Mr. Bar
bour came to town, bringing his wife. Before
starting he called in Steele, and in his presence
put $3.50 in bureau drawer, locked it up, and
delivered to him the key Of the drawer as well
AZ the key to the house. telling him to take care
OF both for the day. Returning home at night
and recounting the money, MIR, Barbour found
that $50 bill was missing. Steele who was
the only one that knew of the whereabouts of
the money bnsde Mr.. Barbour, denied ali knowl-
edge Of the missing bill, declaring that he had
not entered the room since he did go with Bar
bour. The latter maintained that Steele must
know something about it, and finally discharged
him from his service. Steele left aud has not
been heard of since. A few days since Mr.,
Barbour found the missing $50 bill in the back
part OF his bureau, caught in the frame. One
half o. the bill was worn away by rubbing of
the drawer as it had been pulled backward and
forward When he found it he burst into tears
conscience-stricken from having uniustly'ac-
cused and censured Steele.

The sn,nII Pnr I'm rnnr,

John Carr, the Big Indian, entered the prem
ises of Mrs Metcalfe a few nights since and alb
stracted table cloth, girls red flannel jacket
and pocket handkerchief which we're hanging
on the clothes line in the yard A colored SER
want girl employed in the house was on the wit
ness stand and identified the articles. While
giving her evidence she remarked that the
things had been taken into the yard to let the
varioloid blow ont of them, there having been a
case of it in the house. A general stir and
change Of countenanee followed in the neigh
borhood of the bar and judges stand, and dispo-
stion to move away Immediately manifested it,
self in the crowed. Proceedings stopped right
there; the prosecuting attorney gave the bundle
vigorous kick and sent it rolling in the direct
tion of the press reporters. The Judge who
was less terrified than the rest commanded 81
lence, and in the midst of the confusion pro-
nounced fine Of S25, and ordered that Carr be
imprisoned forty-iye days.-Loaiscaie Courier

Fa!se incomes overtnromn.

We live under new medical dspensation, very
different from that under which so many Of our
forefathers died. The sick are no longer bled till

shayen heads. Ever since the Introduction Of Hos.

famous vegetable preventive, ,invigorant and correc

bers of the faculty would not believe in it, "What"
they exclaimed, "cure liver complaint without mer-
curry, chronic rheumatism without colchlcum, fever
and ague without quinine: Impossible!" But the
most obstinate incredulty must yield in the end 10
practical demonstration. From that time to tie
present dyspepsia, blliousness in ermittent fevers
muscular diseases, nervous complaints and consti-
patton have vanished under the operation of the
great speci1' in at least ninety per cent of the
cases In which 1t has been used as remedy for
these ailments. while as preventive OF all NAL aides

THE FISH CONTROVERSY.

The New Jersey papers are generally disposed
to be quite indignant the arrest OF the fish
ermen Of that State, who were taking shad in
the Delaware waters. They all err as to the orr
gin of the jurisdiction of this State, within the
circle, the Newark Courier saying that it was
established by the grant to Lord De la Ware.
AS we have already explained, there will be
nothing gained to anybody by the resuscitation
of the legal question of Jurisdiction. This is
settled beyond reasonable impeachment. If the
New Jersey authorities choose to raise an issue
As to the constitutonality of the Delaware Ii
cense law, that, perhaps, would be something
more practicable
One facetious Jersey paper proposes, that in
view of the warlike achievements of Constable
Prichett, on board his tug, the Delaware author
tiles adopt as new motto for their State .
"What shadders we are, and what shadders we
pursue"
Since the above was in type, a telegram
from Trenton states that Governor Parker has
issued his proclamation denying Delaware 8

Reasoning by analogy, Mr.. Greeley's chances
for the Presidency are bright and encouraging
The New York Herald has discovered that by
placing the initials of the names of the " Lib

dates under each other and reading downward,
we produce the initials Of the respective cand-
dates. This was the case with Lincoln and Ham
ln,except that we use the syllables of the words
and place Mr.. Hamlin's name first These are
