John Thomas, and in attempting to knock an
apple with the butt-end of his rife it was dis

STORE ROBBED. Monroe Register says
that on Monday night of last week. about 9
o'clock, the store of r c. Appling, at the Salt
Sulphur Springs, in Monroe Co., w. Va, was
entered in the absence of the proprietor at
church, and robbed of all its most valuable
goods, estimated at about $500. The cash
drawer was also rifed of its contents, amount
ing to about 500 in money. Evidences of an
abortive attempt to fire the store were also dis
covered.

8. C. Check for $1,000.

We gave some weeks since the
volunteered testimony of Mr.. Drew,
to the fact that he, Drew, saw Oakes
Ames receive from the Sergeant-at-
Arms the cash on the famous rs. c."
check for 81 200, and saw Ames hand
over that money to another man,
and thai other man was not Schuy-
Ter Colfax Who that other man
was, Drew did not know, and has
since then never seen Kim. Because
that testimony was not given on the
investigation by Congress into the
affair, the enemies Of Mr.. Colfax
have attempted to discredit it, al
though Mr.. Drew satisfactorily ex-
planned why his testimony was not
given in that investigation.
We have ever been satisfied of Mr..
Colfax's honesty and innocecne in
that matter. and when assured, as we
have been, that there yet would be
further testimony on that point we
have deemed it would be merely
cumulative and in no wise necessary
to Mr.. Colfax's vindication. We see
now by Harper's Weeksy another
bit of evidence on that point. In
the Weekly of August 9th, it is stat
ed that about two months before the
death of Oakes Ames, he admitted
to Gen. Clinton B. Fisk of st. Louis
that he, Ames, believed the check
was paid to himself, and that Mr..
ColfaX had been greatly Wronged IN
the matter, Gen Fisk authorized
the editor of Ha5per's Weekly to
make this statement, and said that
Mr.. Ames was convinced atlast that
the 81 200 check-the 5. G. Check
was never seen or heard of by Mr..
COlfax.-HerGtd.

DR1FT1N APART.
BY GRACE MELBOURNE,


Drifting apart We are drifting sparil
Slowly, but snrely, my passionate heart
Feels it has lest its once beautiful place.
While watching the shadows that ait o'er
your face
Once I could read, as from book,
The love in your eyes, in your glad trusting
look;
Once I was folded close up TO your heart
Now, we are silently drifting apart
Nothing is said that is formal or cold,
We meet as We met, and We part as of old
Butthe foud clasp Of the hand is no more
For my proud heart sees its love thrust aside,
The flowers of affection swept on by the tide;
flushed are the teardrops that often would
start,
We'll do 1 know it-we're drifting apart.
All would ask, ere we parted for aye,
All that I ever could ask you to say
Is, that when first in your love found rest,
When above others 1 deemed myself blest-
That every word that you uttered was true,
That was dearer than all else to you
Tis like balm to my passionate heart,
Though We are silently drifting apart.
Say, do merit it-this quiet air?
Harder than bitter reproaches to bear.
When have passed from you andin the light,
You have remembered the words of tonight.
Win your proud lips wear the same peaceful
smile
As in the old life which we dwelt in awhile?
Is there no culver Of pain in your heart?
While we are silently drifting apart?

Milk az Medicine.

Considerable has been lately said
in medical journals concerning the
value Of milk as a remedial agent in
certain diseases. An interesting az
ticle upon this subject lately appear
ed in the London Milk Journal, in
which it is stated on the authority Of
DR.. Benjamin Clark, that in the East
Indies warm milk is used to a great
extent as a specific for diarrhoeai
A pint every four honrs will check
the most violent diarrhoea, stomach
ache, incipient cholera and dysen-
terry. The milk should never be
boiled, but only heated sufficiently
70 be agreeab ly warm, not too hot to
drink. Milk that has been boiled
Is onlit for use. This writer gives
several instances to show the value
Oh TINS simple substance in arresting
thls disease, among which are the
following: The writer saws. ait has
hever failed curing in six or twelve
hours, and 1 have tried it, I should
think, fifty times, have also DIV
en- it to a dying man, who had been
subject to dysentery eight months,
latterly accompanied by one eontin-
ual diarrhoea, and it acted on him
like a charm. In two days his diar-
rhOea was gone, in three weeks he
became a hale, fat man, and now
nothing that may hereafter occur
will ever shake his faith in hot milk.
A writer also communicates to the
Medical Times and Gazette a state
meut OF the fever in every one of
which its great value was apparent.
1t checks diarrhoea, and nurishes
and cools the body. People suffer-
ing from disease require food quite
as much as those in health, and
much more so in certain diseases,
where there is rapid waste Of the
system. frequently all ordinary
food in certain diseases is rejected
by the stomach, and even loathed by
the patient; but nature, ever benef-
cient, has furnished a food that in
all diseases is benefcial-in some
directly curative. Such a food is
milk. The writer in the journal
last quoted, DR. Alexander Yale, af-
ter giving particular observations
upon the points above mentioned,
viz, its action in checking diarrhoea,
its nourishing properties, and its ac-
tion in cooling the body, says: "We
believe that milk nourishes in fever,
promotes sleep, wards off delirium,
soothes the intestines and, in fine,
is the sine qua nom in typhoid fe-
ver." We have also lately tested
the value Of milk in scarlet fever,
and learn that it is recommended
by the medical faculty in all cases
of this often very distressing disease.
Giye all the milk the patient viii
take, even during the period of great
est fever; it keeps the strength Of
the patient, acts well on the stom-
ach, and is every way a blessed
thing in this sickness. Parents, re-
member it, and do not fear to give it
if your dear ones are afflicted with
this disease.

a Wooden Railroad-Fifteen Miles
With Ease.

A@@-@@a
The Clarendon Is. c. Press con
tains a lengthy account Of the wood
en- railroad or tramway which has
been lately built, and which brings
Manning Court House into commu-
nication with the outside world:
The South Carolina Central Rail
road had been allowed to drop
through the hands of the original
proprietors, and a considerable
amount of cutting out and grading
had been accomplished, when
Messrs. Land & Pritchett, large tur-
pentine distiIlers doing a very large
business, purchased the right of
way and set about constructing q
road that would take their products
to market
The road from Manning to Lanes
Turnout, on the Northwestern Rail
road, was cleaned out and graded
and laid with scantling. This road
is fifteen and half miles long. The
bed is constructed precisely similar
to other railroads, except IN place Of
iron, this road has wooden stringers.
four by five inches, fastened down to
the cross ties by long iron spikes
passing through both stringer and
crOss-tie, making the stringer both
steady and firm. These stringers
are five inches upon their face. The
friction in running being distributed
over the wide surfaces, the injury to
the rails will be much less.
The fianges of the wheels are two
and half inches deep, thereby pre-
venting any probability of running
off. A portion of the road has been
in operation five months, over which
trains have been running daily, and
most of the stringers are smooth.
The rolling stock on t5he road is
common, but quite effeetual. The
engine is worth only $1,S00, but
sufHcient to carry eight cars loaded,
at the rate of fifteen miles per hour.
The proprietors are now gone to the
north for another engine Of more
capacity. The road is regarded a
success, and answers all the purposes
of a frst-class iron road. It has
cost about 81, 200 per mile. By this
road 10000 lbs. can be sent twice q
day.

"Be wise in time" The
first few hours after an at
tack of Cholera are the pre-
ciOus moments in which, if
the proper remedies are
promptly used, a cure can be
effected in almost every case.
But the old saying that ode
lays are dangerous" is not
more true in any case than
in neglecting to promptly at
tack Cholera when it attacks
yOu. Now, what everybody
wants is a medicine that they
can rely upon, one in which
they can have perfect conf
dence that should they have
occasion to use it, it will not
disappOint them. Such "A
