DURING THE FEVER epidemic of last month
the stock of Ayers Ague Cure in the old North
State became exhausted, and before a supply
could be received from Lowell the suffering
from chills and fever became fearful. A few
parties were SO fortunate as to have it on hand,
and in Iredell County, the druggists eked out
their slender stocks by selling doses-a spoon
full each-for a dollar. Many paid ten dollars
for bottle, when the regular price is but one,
and thought themselves favored at that, so
valuable are the curative properties of this
preparation, which not only expels the poison
from the system, but leaves the patient with
unimpaired health and vgor-Ralegh IN. c.

OUTBREAK In MADRID.
Twenty Persons Killed and

MADRID, Dec. 13.-Consderable excitement
was created in this city yesterday by the report
that an attempt at instruction had beeu made
in the suburbs of the city during the previous
night. 1t was son announced that it was on
very small scale, and was speedily suppressed
by the Government forces, not, however, before
twenty persons had been killed and wounded.
When these facts became known the excite.
ment subsidized, and the city has since been
quiet.
AT the session of the Cortes yesterday Senior
Martis made au announcement of the attempt
ed outbreak. He said that the Government at
tached no Importance whatever to the move
ment, which was probably melted by the oppo-
nents of the new loan, with the idea of affect
ing its successful negotiation.

The Mutual Life of New York, we under
stand, proposes to use the $56,000,0 900 of assets
accumulated to meet outstanding liabilities for
the benevolent ca purpose of making it posi-
BILE for the poorer classes to insure their lives.
We also learn that large numbers who could
not before see their way clear to INSURE are now
ready to avail themselves of the generosity ~
so magnanimously offered.
The old policy holders are a little surprised at
this manner of distributing their accumulated
funds, yet we have no doubt (?) but that they
will finally appreciate this remarkable (?)
movement on the part of the directors of that
company, and ever contribute by paying large
premiums in order to extend the proposed ben
efits.
We hope no old policy holder of that compa-
ny will selfishly protest against using the sur
Plus gained by his payments to forward SO be-
niticent a movement, and 50 kindly (?) feel
ing on the part of the managers.

This society has probably acted wisely this
year, in securing a popular layman to deliver
the annual address. The novelty may draw a
full house, and Mr., Clifford will doubtless de-
scribe the needs of those who have seen better
days, in way to touch the hearts of the rich
and those in comfortable circumstances, caus-
ing them to feel a pleasure in assisting the
managers in their benevolent work.
1t seems desirable that in addition to the
usual annual contributions, some generous gifts
should be made to the society. The late Heze-
kiah Winslow, and William Swan gave one
thousand dollars each. Are there not some
among us ready to follow their example?
The First Parish Committee open their ca
pacious house as usual, tomorrow evening at
seven o clock, and furnish agreeable music for
the occasion.

Jackson-Yes, he has talked that war for

Simonson-Its TOO bad for us to lose Doc
he's . 6ne man-hss great many friends,
and his loss will injure the party very much,
in this county at least.
Jackson-I'm afraid it will, but was
thinking that if We could only make the
people believe that the Doctor was seeking
the straight Republican nomination for
Congress, and that, failing, he became dis.
gusted with us and left; that then we could
break his influence entirely.
Simonson-But he did not seek such
nomination.
Jackson-Well, | dunno, always thought
the Doc was seeking the nomination.
Simons But know pretty well be was
not-Havs you any proof that he wasP
Jackson-No, but l think we can hunt
up something about his actions that will
make ii appear that way, and that will
answer our purpose almost as we'll as if he
did run for the nomination.
Simonson-l don't believe YOU can do it,
but you might get some hitch on him some
how.
Jackson-Yes, its the only thing we car
do. Wen charge it on Trussdale, some will
believe it anyhow, and we'll keep charging
il on him right along and believe it will
tell.
Slmonson-W 20 ahead, if you think j
will stick, but | don't believe We can faster
ii on him. Pm afraid the people won

Jackson-Oh! we'll have to keep at it
people in the country will swallow it. Ii
the best We can get on Truesdaie.
Simonson-Yes, rspose it is, but I'd hat,
to get caught in putting upH job like tina
, on Doc.
Jackson-So would |, but the Union car
3. make the charge, we can then follow it up
I quote that, and show some action or olhe
of Docs that will look that way.
Simonson-Well if that's the programme
pitch in, but I'd rather have some foundation
! for the charge before We make H.
