closing quotations at the Stock Exchange:
The Cecil Whig., 1875-10-23

The certainty and promptitude with which Host.t-
ers Stomach Bitters conquer the most obstinate
of maaral disease and the complete protection which
they afford the system against the masnatic poison
which impregnatcs the air of low lying marshy loca-
ties, stamp them the foremost of American anti.
periodcs. Wherever this continent fever and ague
is regular vsitant-n the bot tom lands of tho South
the clearings and mining districts Of the West
and in all localities in the Eastern and Middle States
where malaria prevails, the Btters recognized
the only true specific for the disease and its most
reliable preventive. They are, moreover safe and
agreeable well certain remedy, and on this
account immeasuratly superior 10 the preparations
of quinne arsenic bsmuth and other mineral posons
mistakenly administered 4. curatives for malades
caused by u'S..s.na, and which if arss'ed IN work
irreparable injury to the constitution.
Unfortunately, fever and ague, and the other prize
complaints generated by miasna, not the only
which result from it, great variety Of disorders
supernduced by the irritation which it Among
these are neuralgia, rheumatism gout periodical head
ache, palpitation painful affections of the spleen
various arrangements of the stomach When traoeable
to malaria, the above affections apt to assume like
the disease which originated them intermittent type
that is to say, they recur at regular intervals Hostel

FOR Inc cecil wing.
A Democratic Road Supervisor.
AS an illustration of one of the small
leaks by which the county's money has
been wasted in time past, and is still oozing
out, we will give you an illustration Of one
who operates-well, you can supply the
place to suit. Under the old system he
had full gang of poor hands, (old men or
boys, horse and cart, and frequently a
plow team, for which he charged the coun-
ty, adding for his own time, and neither he
nor the team were employed large part
of the day.
Under the new programme he gets over
moro road with half the force, patching it
so it will pass the Inspector, and he gets
his pay, but very rarely adding any perma-
nent improvement, SO that the roads are in
a fair way of being worse next season than
ever, and all the money wasted. 1t is
not because he is Democrat that he is SO
thoroughly incompetent to be entrusted
with spending the county's money, but if
he had not have been we doubt if he would
have been permitted to continue in charge
of large share of the roads of district,
(taking those unsold at the Commissioners
bid), by our present economical Board. If
these men can allow 500 or more to be
thus wasted by one man, (who has no per-
sonal interests in the roads, in one district,
what may we expect if the slow and easy
men whom they have nominated for their
successors are entrusted with our pocket
books? We know nothing personally
against them, but if their past is to be
taken as criterion for their future course,
We may look for many fat jobs to be pass
ed under their unsuspecting eyes, for clerks
to make out all sorts Of bills, &C., and we
know that one, at least, of their nominees
will never trouble his equanimity to look
after the fraud, and would probably, un-
aided, never be able to discover it if he
did. Surely no man that is incompetent
to do his own business properly is fit to be
the custodian of the county's trusts. A
word to tho wise is sufficient.

Campaign Subscribers,

We have large number Of campaign
subscribers on our list, whose term as
campaign readers will close with the
next issue of THE WING During this
short season of acquaintance we have
endeavored to make THE WHIG both
pleasant and profitable, and hope we
have been 50 far successful as to cause
our numerous readers to feel real loss
in the absence of the weekly Saturday
visits of the paper.
As an inducement for any, and we
trust all, to continue their subscriptions,
we offer THE WING from the first week
in November to the end of the year
1876 to leach and every" of our cam
paign subscribers, for $500 in advance,
which will be giving them the paper IA
months for the subscription price Of one
year.
After the next issue the paper will
be more devoted to literary matters
general and local news, and our Farm
Department will always be filled with
articles full of interesting and useful
information to the farmer, whose bust
ness is the great and overshadowing
interest of Cecil county. Subscribers
who propose availing themselves of this
offer should send in their names, accom-
panied by the subscription price for the
next IA months, 5000, by the middle
of the first week in November, in order
to insure continuance of their paper
without interruption. Our issue of the
9Th of November will contain the Off
cial returns of the county and the un-
official returns from most of the States
in the Union which hold elections on
that day.

/" Glory Of Monday !"

What transformation strange! We can
see the propriety of clubbing some new sa-
ponaceous mixture with this novel "nomen
ct omen" to make glad tho housewife on
wash day, but pray do not cast the imputa-
tion on the fruit that it is any better tor
one day than the rest.
The "Gloria Mundi" " is one of the most
unproductive sorts of apples, bearing some
immense specimens that fall readily from
the tree and are lost before fit for use.
Gloria Aundi (Glory of the World, and
GLORY of Monday" do sound alike, but
the latter looks very ridiculous to
PoMoLoGIsT.

A Statement to the Voters of Cecil County.


At a Temperance mass meeting held at
Woodlawn, on the Goth of August last,
resolution was passed upon motion of DIR.
Mackall, directing the President and Secre-
tary of the meeting to request the candi-
dates for office to have printed on all the
tickets to be used at the approaching cleo
ton, the words "For Local Option" in
order to give the voters of the county an
opportunity to express their sentiments on
that subject-those favoring a Local Option
law voting the ticket with those words on;
those opposing such a law voting ticket
with those words torn off-the supposition
being that the persons elected to the Legis-
lature would respect the sentiment of the
people so expressed and act accordingly.
In accordance with said resolution, let
ters making this request were sent to all
the legislative candidates. Written replies
were received from Mr.. John H. Bunting
and Mr.. John r. Bond. The former stat
ing that he was in favor of complying with
the request, as he considered it due to the
people that they should be heard on this or
any other subject, the latter stating that he
was willing to do whatever all the other
candidates would agree to. A verbal reply
was received from Mr. Albert Constable to
the effect that he thought the candidates
had no control of the matter, but that it
should be referred to the Executive Com
mittees of the political parties. No other
replies were received.
A meeting of the Executive Committee
of the County Temperance Alliance was
held at Elkton on the 18th inst, at which
it was resolved to refer this matter to the
Executive Committees of the two parties,
as suggested by Mr.. Constable and others,
and they were requested to take the neces-
sary action to have the tickets so printed
as to give the voters an opportunity to
express their views on the subject of Local
Option at the election. Meetings Of the
Executive Committees of the two parties
were called and held on the 10Th inst,
when it was determined by the Democratic
Committee that they would not permit
their tickets to be printed in the manner
indicated.
This, of course, put an end to the plan
proposed by DR.. Mackall, as, unless the
question was submitted to all the voters of
both parties, no fair expression of the will
of the people could be obtained.
The aforegoing is plain statement of
this effort of the people to be heard on
question, by large portion of them thought
to be of vital Importance, and will enable
all to see exactly by whom the gag is
applied
The question before the Committees was
not whether Local Option law should or
should not be passed, but whether or not
the wishes of the people should be heard.
1t is for the voters to say whether they
shall have an opportunity of informing
their representatives of their wants or
shall quietly submit to have their mouths
closed and this inalienable right denied
them. EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE COUNTY
TEMPERANCE ALLIANCE.

Meeting at Rowlandsville.-The meeting

Meeting at ROwlandsville.-The meeting
held at Rowlandsville, on last Wednesday
night, in the interest of Reform, was
grand success. The large Iron House of
the Mccullough Iron Company, capable of
holding several hundred people, was two
thirds full. Addresses were delivered by
W. ]. Jones, John R. Bond, Joseph B.
Pugh and Mr.. Bunting, which were listen
ed to with marked attention. Many prom
inent Democrats were among the audience,
who seemed to relish the blows dealt by
the speakers against the Ring quite as
much as the Republicans. 1t is certain
that Carroll and Woolford are too bitter
dose to be swallowed by honest Democrats
in the Sixth, Seventh, Eighth and Ninth.
The Middletown Fair.-The late fair at
Middletown, Del, was certainly financial
success. During the three days it continu-
ed, about II, ZOO people were admitted to
the grounds, and the net receipts of the
exhibition reached, it is reported, the snug
sum of $1,000. The Committee on Pre-
miums concluded their labors last week.
They made 653 awards to exhibitors. Most
of the premiums were in cash, and ranged
from 81 to $500. The largest amounts
awarded were, of course, to fast horses.
From among large number of premiums
to exhibitors, awarded for various articles
from this county, we select the following:
Shorthorns.-1st premium bull, under /
