principles which should always
characterize every grange member;
that the Office should seek the man
and not the man the office. We ac-
knowledge the broad principles,
that difference Of opinion is no
crime, and hold that progress toward
truth Is made by difference Of opin-
ion, while the fault lies in bitterness
of controversy. We desire prop
err equality, equity, and fairness;
protection for the weak and re-
straint upon the strong; in short,
justly distributed burdens, and just
ly distributed power. These are
American ideas, the very essence Of
American independence, and to ad-
vocate the contrary is unworthy of
the sons and daughters of an Amer
lean republic. We cherish the be-
lief that sectionalism is, and of
right should be, dead and buried
with the past. Our work is for the
present and the future. In our ag-
ricultural brotherhood and it's pur-
poses, we shall recognize no North,
no South, no East, no West. 1t is
reserved by every Patron as his
right as freeman, to affiliate with
any party that will best carry out
his principles.

ers' institution, we cannot admit all
to our ranks. Many are excluded
by the nature of our organization,
and not because they are profession
al men, or artisans, or laborers, but
because they have not sufficiently
direct interest in tilling or pastur-
ing the soil, or may have some in
terest in conflict with our purposes.
But we appeal to all good citizens
for their cordial cooperation to as
sist in our efforts toward reform,
that we may eventually remove from
our midst tho last vestige of tyran-
ny and corruption. We hail the
general desire for fraternal harmo-
ny, equitable compromise, and earn
est cooperation as an omen of our
future success.
Z. 1t shall be an abiding princf-
pie with us to relieve any of our OPP
pressed and suffering brotherhood
by any means at our command.
Last, but not least. we proclaim it
among our purposes to inculcate a
proper appreciation of the abilities
and sphere of woman, as is indica-
ted by admitting her to member
ship and position in our order. I'm
ploring the continued assistance of
our Divine Master to guide us in
our work, we here pledge ourselves
to faithfully and tremendously labor
for all future time, to return by our
united effort to the wisdom, justice,
fraternity and political purity of our
foretathers.

Hack Hack! Cough, Cough!

Cough is symptom by which
various diseased conditions of the
throat, bronchial tubes and lungs,
manifest themselves. But whether
it arises from the irritation produc-
ed in the throat and larynx by TAX
ing cold, from an attack of BroncLi-
tbs, from incipient Consumption, or
from various other causes, nothing
will allay it more speedily nor cure
it more permanently than DR..
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery.
1t does not matter whether it be a
recent attack, or a lingering cough,
the Discovery is in either case
equally well adapted for its relief
and permanent cure. In fact, it will
cure a cough in one-half the time
necessary to cure it with any ether
medicine, and it does it, not by dry
ing it up, but by removing the cause,
subduing the irritation, and healing
the affected parts. No time should
be lost in commencing the use of a
proper medicine for the relief of a
Cough, for unless this course is pur-
sued, serious and dangerous disease
of the lungs is liable to result.
DOCTORS SOON LEARN ITS VALUE.
BUFFALO, N. Y, Dee. 10, 1870.
DIR. PIERcE.-For the past six
months have used your Medical
Discovery in my practice, and in
that time have tested its merits in
severe coughs, both acute and chron.
ic, in chronic disease of the throat,
severe cases of bronchitis, general
arrangement of the system, consti-
pated condition of the bowels, and
wherever a thorough Alternative has
been indicated. In all cases / have
found it to act gently yet thorough
ly and effcctually in removing the
various diseased conditions, and
bringing about q healthy action
throughout the system. Yours, &C.,

William NJ. Evarts tells this good story:
"a few summers since, at the urgent re-
quest of one of his younger daughters, he
sent up to his country place in Vermont a
donkey for her use. She had read about
donkeys, but was not familiar with their
peculiar vocalism. The animals strange
noises inspired her with the profoundest
pity for his evident distress. So she wrote
to her papa: Dear papa: l do wish you
would come up here soon, my donkey is 50
