A correspondent, writing from
Athens, curiously contrasts the mix
lures to be found there of ancient
and modern civilizations. Railroads
spin their trains amid the temples of
three thousand years; steamers dash
their swells upon the Pireus, and
the scream of their whistles resounds
from Athos, Pentelieus and Cytheron
to Olympus and the heaven beyond
their gods. DR.. Ayers world-re-
nowned medicines, those consuma-
tions of modern science, are posted
on the Acropolis, the Parthenon, the
Areopagus and the Thesion, while
the modest cards of Cherry Pectoral,
Ayers Sarsaparilla, Ague Cure and
Pills look from the windows of the
shops in the streets of Athens, where
they are sold.-N. !. Sundov Globe.

At Adamsyille, Ohio, lately, a
young lady of Is was let down into
an old well 80 feet deep, in a tub, to
deposit some butter at the bottom
and when she had been drawn up al
mast to the top, she became insensi-
bic and fell to the bottom. Her
brother was at once let down to Sc
cure rope to her body, but before
he had done so he also fell senseless.

ALLEN opened the campaign il
Columbus on Friday night last, tc
an audience of about 1000. Put
nam, of Chillieothe, was put forward
to defend Aliens character during
ing the war, and apologize for bis
Hamilton speech. Noyes character
needs no defence. A slight differ
ence. Allen charged allsorts of things
against the Republicans, but failed
to recognize the fact that many
Democrats voted for the salary grab
and but few refused the money
none at all from Ohio. Allen evi-
dently would have his hearers be-
lieYe that the law was wrong, but it
was right to keep what wrong law
conferred. AS a moralist he is not

Cholera, which was thought to
have disappeared entirely, suddenly
broke out at Millersburg, Ky, a few
days ago, and prevails to sucha an ex-
tent that people are fleeing from the
place in a panic. Eighteen death in

cured. At 0'Kawville, H., the dis
ease broke out even more virulently,
and a deaths were reported in

ABOUT fifty Democrats of Green
Creek township have signed a pro
test against the proceedings of the
caucus at that place on the 10th nit
and hold themselves free to take
such political action in the future as
they may choose. We give the pro

This is one of the enterprises seri-
ously embarrassed by the lailure of
the Boesel law, but we are glad to
learn that the work is to proceed,
nevertheless. A provisional con
tract lor the entire line has been
made with Mr.. Stanley, Railroad
man, well known in connection with
Hoosic Tunnel, on which he was a
heavy contractor. Under this agree
ment, he is to proceed with the work
on such portions of the line as shall
furnish the right of way and q local
subscription OF $4,000 of stock per
mile-he; undertaking to complete
the track and fully equip the road.
In pursuance of this agreement, Mr..
Stanley has sub-let 4G miles of the
line, between Zoar and Lodi, on
which work was commenced a few
days since at Zoar.
We are glad to note this progress
in this enterprise, and still further
to state that with Mr.. Stanley the
objective northern point is Toledo.
Whether any lake point will be
touched before reaching Toledo, is
not determined. Both Sandusky
and Huron are mentioned in that
connection, but the decision will
rest upon the local aid to be furnish
ed at those points.-Co Commercial,

sured as far north as Milan, whore it

RAILRoAp ANp THE FARMERs.

hAILhOAD AND THE FARMERS.
Upon this question he said "There
is wide spread feeling existing
throughout the West and Northwest
among the producing masses that
railroad corporations, by the consol-
idation of capital, by combinations
of management and the centraliza-
tion of authority, are exercising for
their own advantage an undue and
pernicious influence upon the bust
nest interests of the country. This
feeling is less prominent in Ohio
than in the great grain growing
States farther west, for the reason
that we are rapidly becoming man
ufacturing State, that we are nearer
the great markets, and that we have
several competing lines Of railroad
leading to the East. But there is
dissatisfaction among the people of
Ohio.' f'
The magnitude of the railroad in
terest is next shown and statement
IS made of the fears that the great
combinations will control legislation
more, hereafter, with the remark: "I
confess / do not share in the appre-
hension entertained by some, that
railroads and their officers, or any
other aggregations of wealth and
talent, are likely to subvert, or ma
5erially endanger the liberties of our

The Cleveland HerdLd says: We
have heretofore mentioned the fact
that a Mr.. Drew had lately come
out it a statement that he was pres
ent in the capitol at Washington,
when Oakes Ames drew the money
on the famous 81, 200 as. c." check.
and that he saw Mr.. Ames pay that
money over to man who was in
company with Mr.. Ames, and that
man was a stranger to Mr.. Drew,
and that man was not Schuyler Col
fay. Our readers viii remember
that all suspicion that restet upon
Mr. Colfax in the Credit Mobilier
scandal arose from that "S. C."c check
which initials are those of SCHUYLER
Colfax. Mr.. Drew was abroad when
the investigation took place, and in
his statement gave sufficient reason
for not appearing as a witness on
that investigation. Yet political en-
emies of Mr. Colfax have tried 10
create the impression that Drew's
testimony was an after thought and
was manufactured to order for the
purpose of exculpating Mr.. Colfax.
OF course no generous, candid,
unbiased man but what believes
Mr.. Colfax entirely guiless of wrong
doing or thought of wrong doing in
this matter. and the testimony of
Mr.. Drew is the volunteered state
ment of man whose veracity is
above question. Yet as cumulative
evidence of the fact that the testi
mony was no manufacture we give a |
letter lately received by Mr.. Colfax |
from Mr.. Washburne, our Minister |
at the Court of st Cloud.

KILLED By A FALsEHooD.-"H He is
dead" said a friend of ours the other
day, in answer to an inquiry after the
health of a mutual acquaintance.
Dead I! you don't say SO. OF what did
he die?" "Of credulity,'" vas the
reply; che believed in a patent medi-
cine of which the chief ingredient was
forty-rod rum, and it proved the death
of him" This was true /; the unfortu-
nate man had taken for liver complaint
a compound of fiery alcohol and root
juice, and it killed him. Now, did that
misguided invalid require a tonic? He
did ; but not a spirituous excitant. The
writer of this brief statement is con-
fdent, from his own experience, that If
the Martyr to Dragged Alcohol had
resorted to DR.. WALKERS VINEGAR
BrrrERs, instead of to the poison With a
medical name which proved fatal to
him, he would to-day be in the land OF
the living. The Justly popular vegetable
specific contains no destructive element.
It is a tonic that does not excite, a
cathartic that does not weaken, an anti
septic that n~eutralizes the seeds of dis
ease in the blood and other fluids of the
body, and a general alternative which
arrests diseased action in the secretive
organs, and restores the functional regu-
larity indispensable to health and vigor.
We are no friend of indiscriminate
praise, and believe that many patent
medicines are merely poison, but the
experience of thousands has proved the
VINEGAR BrrrERs to be all they claim
TCom.
