FROM WAYNE COUNTY.
oorespondenoe Huutirgtoa Advertiser.


WAYNE @. H., W. Va, March 21.-Tht
beautiful spring weather Of last week ha'
been succeeded by another blast OF win
ter, rendering fires and overcoats agreea
bic, and throwing a look Of gloom and dis
content upon our citizens, as well as upcr
nature itself.
But little has been done in the way Of
farming. Dat seeding is generally over
yet but little preparation has been made
for corn; and many fences are as vet un-
touched. What little wheat was seeded
last fall is looking well. There is no soil
in the State more generous or productive
than that of this county, and there is nc
place in the State where so little interest
! IS taken in agriculture. Timbering seems
to be the one grand absorbing industry OF
tie people, and the county is impoverished
thousands OF dollars each succeeding year
in the removal of it timber.
We are also very much in need Of good
roads; in fact, there is not good road in
the county. We have some miserable
pretended realistically located, aud never
worked and therefore about f 5e times the
power is required here Tor transportation
as where the people are alive to the i'm.
portance of good roads. As your paper
has large circulation in this county, we
would be glad for you TO help US in AVA
king the people Of this county from their
lethargy in this matt r. We are greatly
in need Of a good road from this place to
some point on the Ohio River, as an outlet
for our produce. This, believe, will also
work as stimu,ant on our material in
dustries.
VIM. E. Wilkinson & Co. will open a
new store at this place next week.
The political sentiment in this county
is divided between Kenna, McCausland
and Burgess, for Congress; no other can
didates are even mentioned. Yet we viii
give our earnest and ardent support TO any
one which the Democratic Convention
NAV select as our standard bearer. II is
true that We have our choice, yet we al
ways feel it our duty to bow to the wisdom
Of our party, and certainly the only way
to preserve an honest and impartial ad =
ministration Of the laws Of
WEST VIRGINIA.

not have required the Ladies to give

An, Interesting Question - Can Con-
sumption be Cured?

This question Is often asked but rarely an
swered to the satisfaction of the patient.
Our answer is that pulmonary consumption
In its incipient form is as durable as any
other disease, if only the right remedies are
applied. The question naturally arises as to
what are the remedies? In reply, we state
that Marsden's Poctoral Balm has been used
successfully in over a million of cases, and
has been adopted by physicians as the most
reliable remedy known for the treatment OF
Bronchial affections.
One great reason that Marsden's Pectoral
Balm has gained such popularity, is the fact
that 1t is within the reach of all, and can be
purchased from all dealers at fifty cents for
small or one dollar q large bottle. One bot
tie will effect cure in most cases.
