ADoMEsTIc Observation-Disclosures
THROWN INTO CoNFUsIoN.-La night, on \
certain fashionable street, at al hour wheu all
piousIy incIiDcd families were eDj 'ylng the ad-
vsntages of gospel ministry, domestic I'M
broglio of most surprising and disgraceiul
character took place, 10 which wife enacted
the role of heroine
MIR. -, wclknowD gentleman, who
has resided 10 this city for number OF years,
and who drives carriage and TWO, and who
also has queenIy looking vile, has not been
altogether blessed of late, if ever, 10 his oouiu.
gal ties. Indeed, it has been whispered for
some time by the gossps in the ncighborbood
that divorce was imminent.
1t seems that this unhappy state Of affairs
grows on. of the fact that the shadow Of gay
and an Ubiquitous L>'hario hauots MIR. --'s
house; that Mr.. has repeatedly made
attempts TO intimlda,e The apparltloD, but to
no -tfeci; ADD that Mrs -- continually en-
couraces the coming of the said shadow. Last
night 10 the back portion of the house, away
from the hearing of the ever vigilent police, the
watchfn and suspicious husbaod commenced
to upbrad and lecture his inoopstant spouse
for her conduct when she became enraged, s1d
j.rkiDg up pitcher full of James River wat
er. aimed it, 10 torclbIe aud dramatic style, at
old medder's skull. Ii bit, both grsw iupas
stoned, aud husbaod aud wife came together in
any thing but 40 affec,ionate embrace.
During the melee she losl her back hair, and
be sustained bite on the colar-boue. Some
of the neighbors heariog the rumpus, rushed
to the scene of action ard pu: stop to the
belligerant proceedings. No arrests were made.
Mr.. was so much mortified at the pres.
ence OF the friends who came 10 that he imm
diately withdrew from the bosom Of his family
and ensconced hiusef for the night in the car
rage house. Owing to the social position Of
he parties concerned the matter has been kept
to day, as far as possible from the public ear.
But thoroughly has it been ventilated among
those who saw the fuo. To day Mr. - is

Because tho merchant and banker sees in

Because thu granger aud farmer behods 10

the taxes, restore confidence to the grain aud

Because the coored mab observes 10 him the

Hard times and worse comiog is the cry not
only 10 this city, but throughout the couotry,
and those who are able to get along without
running in debt should consider themselves
fortunate. When business reviVes and work
becomes plentiful, as will be the case under
dem ocra administration, the fortunes of all
will improve. Uutil then let us be as con,ent-
ed 80 possible, and labor earnestly to secure the
election Of Gov. Jiiden.

The arguments in the Belknap impeachment

positively indignant at Gov. Tildeu for bis de-

Why they are so anxious to have it 10 their

FOR PRESIDENT,

FOR VICE-PkESIDENT,
TuOS. 4. HENDKI(ks.O OF INDIANA

There are few meo in different quarters Of
the South, who, having becrme weary OF walt
inp for the democratic party to get possession
Of the government, end imagining that the
radical patty will retain the sway ii has held tor
80 Iona time, have determined to be Oh, what
they, consider the weaker side 90 longer, and
have therefore announced their Intention OF
supporting Hayes and Wheeler in the coming
election; but like the gambler, who. haviug
risked bis money COL, secutivey on losing card,
removes it just before the luck changes, they
have been guilty of grand mistake, and have
made turucoats OF themselves and renouuced
their principles juS when those principles were
on the eve of receiving the appreciation OF the
couotry for from lar and near come reports OF
1eiutorce ments tor the lilden ranks, and those
reinforce ments, too not singy but 10 battaIlons,
and those batlalions commanded by popular
leaders, the loss of whose support is as much
deplored by the radicals as its gain is valued
by the democrats, and by whose assistance the
democrats and conservatives, aud that large
class, who, 10 every election, vote tor whom
they consider the best man, will trlumphantly
route the ccrruptionsts now in power and put
the government ouce more into honest hands.

The Turkish War.

The war news trom the TURKISH provinces
is of the usual contradictory character, one re-
port stating that the ServIan staff has decided
that Tchernayeffs army shall fall back and
abandon all the positions hitherto held, while
another dispatch from Widdin says the Turks
are uuable to assume the offensive, but that
they have sufficient force the rep2 to attacks OF
the Serviaus correspondent of the l. ndon
ground, aud that thay are gaining recruits
faster ,hln the Turks. Th: ST. Petersburg
Golos expects that conference of the Powers,
which was determined on at Relchstadt, WILL
be held shortly The Sui ans health is said
to be improving. Austria has demanded i'm
mediate satisfaction for the violation OF neu-
trality by Turkish mao- of-war at Kick.
How TO CURE THE CHILLs.-The following
receipt for curing fever and ague, and the
reason for it's administration in that form is
given by the Journal of Health:
To cure fever and ague take twelve grains of
quinine ut one dose about an hour before the
chill is expected. Just one week from that
hour take another twelve grains OF qulnloe.
The disease will seldom return. This is the
dose for an adult. Children should take smaller
doses according to age. The reason that de-
cded doses OF outline cure fever and aeuc
seems to be that the disease receives shock
which breaks it. Small does Of qulnine only
hold it in oheck during the time the medicine
is being taken; rs soon as It is suspended the
disease usually returns. Heuoe the popular
notioo that the auiuips only 'teeds" the dis
ease. The fault is DOT with the medicine, but
in the manner of administering it. While We
n hal;auo in rho IN poUmcp nj
Of medicine, we are bound to say that qulniDe.
periodically administered, has proved the only
dead shot" for fever and ague in our practice.

TIE PRINTING BILL.
Otherwise Termed IAN Act to Pay the
Debts and Prov lde for the SuSteNancc
Of the independent.
The EDornnity Of the Steal which il Con.
tesmp!atcd.

Section of the Printing Bill provides
That such Public Printer shall publish in
the Official Journal, within sixty days after
the adjournment of each Legislature, all laws
and resolutions passed by such Legislative
Assembly; and it is hereby made the duty of
the Secretary of the Territory to deliver to
such Public Printer, within twenty days after
the adjournment sine die OF both houses Of
the Legislative Assembly, certified copies of
each and every law and resolution passed by
said Assembly at any session thereof.
The laws of the Eighth Legislative Assem-
bly, measured 1924 squares. Say the laws of
the Ninth session will make 1900 squares.
For the publication of these laws in the
"Official Journal" as per proposed new law,
the Territory will pay $4,000 This work, III
actual cash, will cost the Public Printer $500.
A net profit to the Printer of $1,000; and the
Territory viii not receive one dollars benefit
therefrom. Why does not the Mdpendent
mention this little matter? and put it before
the public in black type! If at this session,
or any other session, the laws should be
codifel, the single publication would cost the
Territory from SO, 900 to S 8, 900.
But this particular part of the pending
printing bill gouge does not stop even here.
After providing in the first clause Of section
6 for the publication in the official paper
within sixty days after the adjournment of
each Legislature, of all laws and resolutions
passed by each Legislative Assembly, it is
made the duty, in the second clause, of the
Secretary of the Territory, ''to deliver within
twenty days after the adjournment sine die Of
both houses of the Legislative Assembly, Ger
tilted copies of eacA and e1ery lao and resolu-
ton passed By said Assembly at ANY session
Mereot.' Under the provisions of this Sec
ton of the bill, then, the Public Printer can
call for and publish the entire acts of the Cod
ifcation, if he so elects, and demand and re-
ceive payment therefor, at the rate of $2.00
per Squire of ten lines of nonpareil measure
ment. Really, as before stated, there is no
limit to the robbery which this bill proposes
to legalize. We cannot, nor can anybody
else, compute or estimate the amount Of steal.
ing its several provisions cover. Will legis-
lators examine the printed copy of the bill
which the HERALD laid before them this
morning. We also lay the bill before the
public in the HERALD this evening, that every
body may be Informed of this unblushing at
tempt at an enormous public robbery.
