THE FREE BRIDaEi This public
structure has proved itself to be of incal-
culable benefit to both Richmond and Man
chester. Not, however, until the bridge
across the basin is constructed can the clti-
zens of the two places reap the full benefit
anticipated from the bridge. On the Man
chester side, where Seventh street is graded
down some twelve feet for about two
squares, the lots on either side have been
sold to brick-makers, who are industiously
at work, Notwithstanding the hard times,
converting the earth into material for
building. Already large portion of the
earth on the left side Of Seventh street
has been cut down to level with
the street and been made into brick.
Stone for paving Seventh street. from
the Danville railroad crossing to Hull
street, is being supplied by the town,
and tie paving will soon be commenced
and several streets crossing this have
been graded. and all that portion o
the town has been greatly improved. II

The season has already commenced, and

sary as crowning the perfection of q toilet
the most important article claiming atten-
ton and admiration. So dainty are they
this season, yet after all SO much enlarged,
that they may be regarded as simply per-
feet. Most Of the more fashionable bon
nets and hats are Of black, gros grain silk
and velvet, though colors are much worn
by some, but in very faint tints. The
trimmings are mostly Of groseile roses.

One Of QUE New York papers says:
"The bonnets are certainly larger, and
there is suspicion Of cape and realities
in . comfortable crown, and SO, Of course,
hair has fallen, not in price, but from the
apex, and our eyes are no longer offended
by exposed napes of necks not always
formed in classic mould. The club of
hair at the back, in solid
braid, turned up to the apex, is GER
tainly more classic and more becoming"
The new shape 10 bonnets are 4ooriani,
named for our new prima donna, Nilsson,
a very distingue shape, and the Isolina.
Black and navy blue seem to be the favor
ite colors this season. To-day, the 18th,
Mrs. NJ. J. Davis had her winter bonnet
reception. The public well know her rooms
are the fashionable resort in these reception
days. AL the beauty and fashion Of our
city were out e., nadsse. We see all the new
styles not only in bonnets, but in the ele-

Another great attraction to the Rich

after seeing all Mrs. Davis lovely bonnets,

HENRICo CoUNTY.-At the recent elec
ton held at Bakers precinct, in Fairfield
township, the returns made by the judges
Myer Angel, Thomas Whiteford, and G..
o. Vincent, shows lack Of care or want
of knowledge unsurpassed. The returns
made by these gentlemen, if thrown out.
as ought to have been done, would not
have changed the result, yet they are mani
festly improper, and may have caused a
contest by the parties interested in the
result of the election. In making up the
returns the electors names are given, and
the number of votes each received, the
Conservatives in one column and the Re-
publicans IN the other, without saying for
what these Several electors voted for. For
instance, James L. Kemper got 1O7 votes,
and Robert w. Hughes got 81 votes; and
more singular still is the fact that the en-
tire vote cast was 1893, and William Nc.
Gruder, who ran for treasurer, is put down
in both columns as getting 192 votes from
each party-thus showing that he received
8S4 votes, when in reality his vote was 1872,
McGruder being run on both tickets.

HUsTINGs CoURT.-In this court to-
day a few civil cases were disposed Of. An
order was also entered to the effect that it
had appeard in evidence before court upon
the trial Of one Daniel Higgins, a Conserva-
tive justice of the peace, for felonious
assault on Anton j.. Staude, whereof he
had been found guilty. Therefore ordered,
that rule be served on said Higgins to
show cause at the December term why he
should not be removed from his office.
This is move in the right direction,
and it is to be hoped that similar course
will be pursued with the superintendent of
the chain-gang and the jailor, sometime
since convicted of violation Of law and
sent to jail, who are yet in Office.

EDITORIAL notices are so common that
it is almost impossible for an editor to
express his honest opinion of the merits
of any article without being suspected
of interested motives. This fact, how
ever, shall not deter us from saying
what we think of a new addition to the
Materia Medica to which our attention
has been recently directed. We refer
to DR.. J. Walkers California Vinegar
Bitters, a remedy which is making its
way into more families Just now than
all the other advertised medicines put
together. It's popularity, as far as we
can judge, is not based on empty pre-
tention. There seems to be no question
about the potency of its tonic and alter
alive properties, while it possesses the
great negative recommendation of con-
tanning neither alcohol nor mineral
poison. That it is a specific for indi-
gestion, biliousness, constipation, and
many complaints of nervous origin, we
have reason to know; and we are as
sured on good authority that as a gen
eral invigorant, regulating and purify
ing medicine, it has no equal. 1t IS
stated that its ingredients, obtained
| from the wilds of California are new
to the medical world and its extraor-
binary effects certainly warrant the con-
clusion that it is a compound of agents
hitherto unknown. If popularity is
any criterion, there can be no doubt of
the efficiency of the Vinegar Bitters,
! for the sale of the article is immense
| and constantly increasing.

Care of Horses.

Horses that have been at rest during
the winter should be worked only mod
erately at first. See that the collars ft,
and that the parts that come in contact
with the shoulders are clean and soft.
Wash the shoulders with salt and water.
If the skin becomes infamed or sore,
battle it with petroleum mot kerosene),
or wash with warm water or carbolic
acid. Keep the feet and legs clean.
Wash them, if necessary, and rub them
dry. At noon remove the harness and
clean the horses. Feed cut hay moist
ened with water and sprinlIled over
with meal or bran. This can be eaten
quicker than long hay, and the horses
have more time TO digest it before go
ing back to work. At night always
clean the horses thoroughly and make
them comfortable. This is more i'm
portant than cleaning in the morning.
Let them have sll the salt they vii
eat

The Siberian ExiIes.


Among the many reforms introduced
by the Russian government, of late
years, the new arrangements made for
the conveyance of exiles to Siberia is
one of the most remarkable. Since the
year 1890 the exiles were sent to Siberia
on foot. They first assembled at Khar-
koff, Moscow and Min, Novgorod, and
thence proceeded to Kazan, which was
the chief meeting-plsce of the exiles
from all parts of Russia. From Kazan
hey went to Perm, and thence to Ekater-
burg, Timeny and TomsI. At intervals
Of twenty versts there were halting sta
tions, where the prisoners rested and
passed the night, after which they went
on with a fresh escort. The time occu-
pied in this journey was from one to
two years, and the exiles had to march
in all weahhers. This naturally made
many of them totally unfit to proceed,
and several did not reach their destina-
ion at all, having died on the way
Moreover, those who had been condemn
ed for serious offenses had to march in
chains, which, after few weeks march
ing, produced horrible wounds. Others
had their hands tied, which prevented
them from protecting themselves in the
hot season against the flies Finally,
the government itself had to sustain
very heavy charges for escorts, provi-
sions, transport, etc, during these long
journeys. The first change was made
in 1858, when the exiles were sent from
St Petersburg to Moscow by rail. In
1861 a committee was formed under the
presidency of Herr Heyden, to improve
the condition OF the exiles, and in 1865
the government appointed inspectors to
consider what reforms might be desir-
able. One Of these was stationed be-
tween Mini Novgorod and Timeny, and
The Pulaski citizen. [volume] (Pulaski, Tenn.) 1866-current, 1873-06-19

the other between Timeny and Tomsk.
In 1867 Baron ViIlot proposed that the
exiles should not march during the win
ter, and that at that season of the year
they should be quartered IN certain
towns and given employment. This
proposal, which greatly aileviated the
sufferings of these unfortunate people,
was finally accepted by the minister of
the interior, who at the same time d.
rected that the prisoners should Ia fu-
ture be conveyed by rail, steamer or car.
In 1869 the government entered into a
contract with the merchant Mikhailoff
for the conveyance of the exiles in cars.
Since 1872 they have been conveyed in
strongly-made boats, tOwed by steam
ers. From Tomsk they still have to 60
to their destination on foot, as before.
The present arrangements not only pro-
vide for the health and comfort of the
exiles, but also cause a considerable
saving to the government, for instead d
