FLAG PREsENrATIoN-On the 18th
inst, the ladies Of st. Joseph's congrega-
ton of Massillon presented a beautiful flag
to st. Patrick's Benevolent society. The
occasion was marked by ponBdsrable
pomp and display. At 2 p. m. the mem-
bers of st. Patrick and st. Joseph societies,
in their regslia, marched from the church
to the German Catholic school hall. The
procession was led by the Massillon Silver
Band in their gay new suits. The spaci-
Gus hall was well filed, and after several
fine airs from ths band the flag was pre-
ssnted by the Rev. Father Walsh of
Toronto, Canada, on behalf of the ladies
of the congregation. The remarks of the
reverend gentleman were quite appropri-
ate and suitable and were exceedingly
well received. The response was deliver
ed on behalf of the st. Patrick society by
Joseph A. Bour, ESQ, of Canton. Mr..
Bours remarks were highly acceptable,
were we'll delivered and well received by
the large audience. Each speaker occu-
pied about half an hour. OF course, I'M.
mediately after this the band discoursed
more of their charming music. The pro-
cession, composed mainly Of the two socie'
| ties, was again formed, and led by the
band, marched through the main streets
The occasion wal much enjoyed by al
who participated, and it passed of to thu
satisfaction of all.

REMEMBER.-Let every Democrat re-
member that the way to serve the cause
is to sustain his local political ~organiza-
ton, townEhip and county. In order to do
this efectually he must be somewhat
posted on county affairs. He cannot act
understandingly unless he is posted. The
only possible way to become acquainted
with his county political matters Is to be
q constant and attentive reader Of his
county paper. This is absolutely necessary
and the friend who does not fully appre-
ciate it and act ~rccordingly Is not doing
his full duty. We hear occasionally Of
of persons in our eWn eounty-to say
nothing of other countiOs-who do not
take their "home" political organ but do
take one from q distance. OF course, in
these distant papers they do not find i'm
portant matters of information and news,
political and otherwise, pertainingto their
own locality. There is 50 little sense in
such conduct that it only needs to be
mentioned to perceive how ridiculous and
unwise it is. The home paper is of the
first importance and should receive the
first consideration. 1t is all proper to
take other good papers-but highly i'm
proper to take them to the exclusion OF
their home organ that is probably strug-
Cling along to serve the cause.
The county that has nc party organ has
no common bond of understanding. They
cannot be in in accord. They are at sea
without sails or rudder and in 3 helpless
and fsrlorn condition. When the Demo-
Gratis of Medina county had a paper, they,
occasionally elected man and alarmed
their old whig opponents, but their cOun-
ty paper died, for lack of support and
because of Democratic neglect and on ac-
count of sending elsewhere for 8 paper
that gave more reading matter" &c,
Our friends should remember that it II
the county paper that is the real bulwArk
in sustaining the cause. This has beer
demonstrated in Summit county. A few
years ago several noble spirits, ike Gao,
WEIMER, our candidate for Treasurer o
State, generously furnished material aid
and the Akron Times vas started. Oul
vote in that county has increased mos
astonishingly since. But they did moi
stop with starting the paper. They con-
tinued to sustain, to foster and to cherish
it, till it has become q thriving institution
and sold lately for $1,000.
Let all this admenish our friends o
their duty.

King of the Blood.

For Dropsy. Case.-I wa attacked
with Abdominal Dropsy four years ago.
I took medicine from five different doc
tors I applied to the sixth, but he de-
elined attempting my case, saying he
thought me past remedy. Another tho't
he might help me if 1 would be tapped,
but 1 was SO weak I thought I could not
bear it. 1 then saw your king Of the
Blood advertised. Ny son said he
would send to you for it, and did So
When 1 began to take it I could not lie
down or sit up straight; by wearing .
bandage / was able to walk a little. 1
had not put on my stockings for some
months. Persons who visited me thought
I could not live any length of time. 1
very soon felt that your medicine was
helping me, and by the time 1 had used
the second bottle 1 could put on my stock
ings, and began to feel comfortable. In
two months the water was all gone, and I
was a living skeleton; but my appetite
was good, and 1 began to gain flesh, and I
now look as well as ever I did, and feel
quite well. SARAH PENTz,

THERE was no service in the Presbyter-
ian church last Sunday morning, although
it was so announced in the papers and
otherwise, and by authority, that Rev,
Doctor Buckingham would occupy his old
place in the forenoon. Many of the con-
gregation were much disappointed, not to
say grieYed, since the failure was wholly
owing to objection on the part Of some Of
the members. We believe the proper
authorities of the church and q large ma
|jority of the members were DESTROYS OF
hearing Mr.. B. For the consideration OF
some we commend Romans XVIII.
