Mr.. EDITOR DEAR SIR-As you have
several correspondents from Bristol, and
as it seems to be the topic of the day,
thought that anything from this quarter
might be interesting to the public, IN
general. I have understood that "the
house Of SANDER is draped in mourning"
do not know Of but one house that
sh0atd be, and that is 90 account of the
extreme sickness of the mother of the
person who owns it, Eve hope she may
recovery fer an old friend is worth score
of new ones.
Writing OIL personal facts is consider
ed low and disgraceful but a lack Of
knowledge prevents them from being
convinced CT this fact. The more You
try to build up and help some, Joresgaeqs
accepted, the less they appreciate your
kindness. Weak minds or lack of
gpnd sense is the cause, think.
An cid adge and one that has proved
itself true, Is, persons attending to every
body's business, generally neglect their
own, and | would furthermore add,
Judge not lest ye be judged. E.

FIGHTING THE CHINcH BUG. - Mt
Laffar'y is perfectly right in showing the
impracticability OF large scale Of many
remedies that may answer on a small
scale, and IN advocating the log and
ditch plows agalnsc the first brood as it
leaves the small grain and makes for the
corn. Yet it mus not DE forgotten that
this first brood at the slme it passes from
field 10 field and may be fought with
bitches, he's already accomplished most
Of the injury it is capable Of, and that
as M. L.. we'll remarks, the ditching is
Of no avail against the second brood. It
is for these reasons that have so stlong-
" urged the necessity of Winter work
and combined action in dealing with the

HOW TO REMOVE WARTS.

Warts are not only very troublesome,
but disigure the hands. Our readers
will thank us for calling their attention
to the following perfect cure, even of
the largest, without leaving scar :
"Take a small piece OF raw beef, steep it
all night in vinegar, cut as much from it
as will cover the wart, and tie it on, or,
if the excrescence is on the forehead,
fasten it On with strips Of plaster. It
may be removed during the day and put
on every night. In one fortnight the
wart will die and peel off" The same
prescription will cure corns.-. Western

The editor of the KenOsha Union, in the last is
sue of that paper, in referring to the numbers OF
the TELEGRAr PHI and of the Union delivered to
subscribers through the Kenosha poet-ofice, as
furnished him by the postmaster, makes the
number of the TELEGRAPH IS more than the mum
Der of the Union.
He then says, "At that time we were delivering
By carrier to actual subscribers, 13 and the 1ete
graph, as we have since learned, 80.

Der of the Union he claims to deliver
by carrier by about 100 we may believe what he
says, but otherwise we shall not believe it.
And here we can not get the proof outside Of
his own Office, and employees, past or present,
that he does not give the number correctly. as we
can as to the number delivered through the
post offices If we could, we think it would be
Just as easy to prove his statement of deliv
1873 by carrier to be incorrect % subscribers pos
sibly 80, may have the Union delivered to them

AS to the editor of the Union, or its publisher,
or the carrier, or any one connected with the
Union, delivering IS copies of the Telegraph, or
any other number, to subscribers or any other

WE have had cool weatheraud some heavy rains
in this region during the past week. The cool
weather has been beneficial TO crops. The rain
may have done some damage in places, but alto
gether has probably been beneficial Bugs have
done some injury, bat how much we are not fully
informed and perhaps it is not fully known. With
many unfavorable aspects. the general prospect
for good crops in this county is still fair. One
great danger now seems to be that the frequent
and heavy rains may prevent the curing and saw
ing hay and grain. Another that the times for
having, and harvesting the different grains. VIII
come on SO near together that even with favora-
bic weather, all cannot be taken care of in time.

The Supreme Court Of Wisconsin, in the
matter Of the petition Of John O'Conner for
writ of habeas corpus, and to be discharged
from custody, has affirmed the order Of the
County Judge, and consequently of the
Jurisdiction Of the State over the Soldiers
Home Grounds. This decision is in dirsct
conflict with the decision Of the Supreme
Court of Ohio as to the Jurisdiction of the
State over the Soldiers Home IN that state.
It is questionable which of the two is the
better opinion. And as it Is essential that
the United States should know whether The
National Government can exercise control
over the Soldiers Homes wherever located,
or only over part CT them, it is probable
that the Wisconsin case will be taken TO the
Supreme Court of the United States.

HELP TO MOTHERS NURSING INFANTS.
1t is conceded that mothers who have the
care, anxiety and draught of nursing infants
are weak and need the aid of some strength
ening tonic TO make mp the nourishtnent re-
guired for the growth of the child. Ale,
porter, and lager beer have often been re-
commended OF late, since physicians Lave
become aware that the Port Grape Wine
produced by Alfred Speer, of Passaic. n. J.,
is strictly pure, they have prescribed it in
stead of ale and porter. This wine is prin-
cipally sought by mothers who have nursing
infants at the breast, as the best supplying
medium to be found. The wine is rich in
body and not intoxicating hut gently stimu-
lating. Druggists generally keep it, and
