THE SKEPTICAL CONVINCED. - Every
advance in Medicine, every new remedy
has encountered m opposition, which
is the test OF truth. Galen and Jenner
only were believed when they had proved
their discoveries against opposition.
But men are observing, and benefits
always make believers. No incredulity
can stand the silent argument OF good
results. When Dr. Walker proclaimed
that he had produced from the medicinal
herbs OF California al Elixir that wsuld
regenerate the sinking system and cure
diseases not organic, the incredulous
shook their heads. Yet his VINEGAR
BIrTrRs is now the Standard Restora-
tive of the Western World. The truth
could not be resisted. Under the opera
ton of the new remedy, Dyspeptics
regained their health, appetit, and
strength, the Bilious and Constipated
we're relieved Of every distressing
symptom (; the Consumptive and Rheu-
matte rapidly recovered; Intermittent
and Remittent Fevers were broken up
the faint of Scrofula WAS eradicated
Who could gainsay facts like these
Not even the Faculty. Skepticism was
routtu. All upuptS aS W tue ciaiuls Vi
the Bitters to 'he first place in the first
rank of modern medicines were silenced,
and this wonderful preparation is to-day
the most popular Tonic, Alternative, and
Blood Depurent ever advertised in
America. In common with other Jour
nalists, we are free to add our testimony
to this remedy. 1t is n domestic medi-
cine. and no household should be with
out it.-COni.

The Growing Crops.

Tho late intelligence concerning the
crops Ia encouraging. Our exchanges,
on the whole, are jubilnnt. In Wiscon-
sin we note that "since tho last rain
crops look WE'LL" In Michigan "the
wheat il nearly all bladed ont, and with
favorable weather the 10th OF July will
commence the harvesting OF as good q
crop of wheat as has ever been produced
in Michigan" In Ohio and Western
Virginia "the weather has been very
propitious for the growing crops, and
everything looks favorable to full av'
erage yield of the cereals" In North
Carolina the only trouble appears to be
the scarcity of labor, "the consequence
of which is that both negro and planter
are demoralized the cotton on the
brain is developing seriously in this
State too. In Georgia and Alabama the
crops have been somewhat damaged by
the continued rains OF the past fort
night, but, MS n rule, the crops are look
ing well. In South Carolina the present
condition of the cotton crop is unsakis-
factory. In Louisiana, unless clear
weather comes, the cotton and grass
crops must be ruined. In the West the
genial nature of the soil and the beau
tiful weather OF late have about pre-
pared the wheat crop for the harvest,
and indeed in some places the harvest
has already begun, reaping having com
menced in Randolph county, Illinois,
and will soon begin in Madison and st.
Clair counties, Illinois, and in st. Gen
evieve county in Missouri, where the
Weld to the acre is expected to equal 80
bushels Reports from Texas complain
Of excessive rains, but in Collin and
Dallas counties harvesting has com
menced. The Galveston News says
everywhere the spring has been late,
and the cold weather has made crops
nearly n month more bachw ward than
usual and everywhere we hear of ex.
cessive rains during the past few weeks,
rendering it difficult to harvest wheat,
md causing the grass in the fields to
grow beyond the means of most farmers
to keep it down, so that corn and cotton

States, reports come of the excellent
prospect for a very bountiful crop OF

The Original Stars and Stripes.

Some interesting facts in regard to
the first flag of the United States are
given in Hafper's Magazine for July :
THE construction of the first nation
al standard of the United States, as a
design, from which the STARS and
Stripes was afterward adopted, took
place under the personal direction of
General Washington, aided by COM
mittee of Congress authorized to de-
sign suitable flag for the nation, at
Philadelphia, June, TIT.
"This took place at the residence of
Mrs. Ross, relative of Colonel Ross,
in Arch street, between Second and
Third, where General Washington and
the committee completed the design,
and employed Mrs. Ross to execute the
work. The house is still standina NO.
239). Mrs. Ross was afterward Mrs.
Claypoole. Her maiden name was
Griscom, and, according to the fashion
of the times, she was called Betsy
BETSY Gr;scom had, before the Rev
olution, acquired some knowledge of
the 'upholder' trade, as it was then
called-an occupation Synonymous with
that of the modern upholsterer-aud at
the time was carrying on business on
her own account in her little shop. One
day, probably between the 23d of MAY
and the 18th of June, 1777, during which
period Washington was in Philadelphia,
there came to her the commander in
chief, the Hon. George Ross, and other
gentlemen, members of Congress, who
desired to know whether she could make
them flag according to design which
they would produce. She intimitated
her willingness to try. The design was
for flag of thirteen red and white
stripes, alternate, with union, blue in
the field, spangled with thirteen six
pointed stars. Mrs Ross expressed her
willingness to make the flag, but sug-
gested that the stars would be more
symmetrical and pleasing to the eye if
made with five points, and she showed
them how such star could be made,
by folding sheet of paper and produc-
ing the pattern by a single cut. Her
plan was approved, and she at once pro-
ceeded to make the flag, which was
finished the next day. Mrs Ross was
given the position OF manufacturer of
flags for the government, aud for some
years she was engaged in that occupa-
ton. The business descended to her
children, and was carried on by her
daughter, Clarissa Claypool, who vol
unfairly relinquished it on becoming a
member of the Society of Friends, lest
her handiwork should be used in time
of war;"

Stewards Home for Women.

Mr.. A. T. Stewards Home for Young
Women, says correspondent OF West
IN paper, is all finished except the in
erior work. 1t is located on Fourth
venue, between Thirty-second and
rhirty-third streets. 1t has a frontag,
# 1872 feet on Fourth avenue, and OF
POS feet on each of the other streets,
md covers Al 900 square feetin all. Thu
building is six stories high, with Man
ard roof of pure white in color, handsome
lesign, and admirable construction
The upper stories are from IL to II feet
IN height, which will give space enough
for fresh air. There is an interior court
# 6ixl16 feet, which will be rendered
attractive by a fountain and other orna-
mentation. The motive power of the
whole edifice is steam, which furnisher
heat, runs the elevators, works the ven
tilating fans, &c. The kitchen and
laundry are modelled upon the more
modern hote plans, and the dining
room, which is 30x92 feet, will be con
lucted on the restaurant plan. There
are other large halls for lectures, con-
,erts, library, and recreations. The
anger ones, 16xlS, are intended for sis
ters or companions the smaller ones,
Sx9 feet, for one person only. The OBJ
iect OF the Home is to furnish working
girls with all the conveniences of hotel
md the protection of good associations
for the smallest practical prices. 1t is
believed that good, wholesome accom-
modations can thus be secured for less
price than is paid for squalid lodging
IN tenement house. In furnishing
this, Mr. Stewart has provided sub
'tantial charity, which will be all the
more efficient becauseit is not altogeth-
er gratuitous.

Successful Working OF a Narrow Gauge
Railroad.

The first annual report of the Board
OF Directors of the Denver and Rio
Grande Railway shows that the man
ayers of that company, after fair trial,
are fully satisfied that they acted wisely
in adopting the narrow gauge of three
feet in the construction of their line.
which is now in operation from Denver
to Puebla, distance of 1lS miles. In
building their road in n wild and noun
famous country, they have saved about
37} per cent. in the first cost of con-
struction and equipment through the
adoption of the narrow guage while
the trains, passenger and freight, have
been run at the rates of speed prevail
ing on the broad guage roads west of
the, Missouri river. On special occa-
sions speed of forty miles an hour has
been attained, the cars running with
steadiness at this rate. The freight
cars prove suitable for the satisfactory
carriage of all classes of traffic, whether
bulky or concentrated, and especially
well calculated for the transportation of
live stock. Since the road has been in
operation its business has been profit
able, and no accident has occurred.
