POlitic al Notes.

The Republicans held large mass meet
ing at Media, Thursday, which was asaddressed
BY Ex-Gov Pollock, Col. McMichael, and
several others. Tie procession was about
~ miles in length. and was interspersed bya
number of brasA bands. The event was
characterized By a spirit of enthusiasm.
Politics makes curious changes. Only
few weeks ago there wss nothing too severe
for the Democratic journals Of South Caro-
lima to say Of Chief Justice Moses. Now
that that distinguished light of the bench
has taken occasion to shut his eyes and to
say that he sees no armed men in the State,
the same Journals allude to him with I'M
mense respect as the venerable Chief
Justice 1t must amuse Moses aud his
tribe somewhat.
1t ia reported from Florida that so great
Indignation was aroused by the release of
Democrat, who had shot Republican, that
seventeen Democrats withdrew from the
Tilden Club and joined Hayes and Wheel
er Law and Order Club, composed of white
men The Tildenites may find that these
things are apt to react after awhile.
The only States which thus far have
elected members of the next Congress are
Maine, Vermont, Ohio, and Indiana At
present they are represented by twenty Re-
publicans and twenty-one Democrats in
the next House they will have thirty Repub-
licans and eleven Democrats. This ia a
good beginning.
Ex Gov. CASTOR positively declines to ac
cept the Democratic nomination for Con-
gress in the Fourth District Of Massachu-
setts
Geo. B. Sharp, OF Londongrove, has beer
placed ON the Chester county Democratic
ticket, for State Senator, in place Of r. Jones
Monaghan, declined.
John o. Whitehouse has declined the
Democratic nomination to Congress IN the
Thirteenth District of New York.

rrAfllc IN New England Ferns.

Traffic tm New England Ferns.
Among the new industries Of the last few
years ie the collection and sale Of the creep
ing ferns 80 common in our New England
woods, but entirely unknown beyoud the
Alleghenies, and, until last year, unknown
beyond the Hudson. This business origi-
mated at Greenfield, where it is now carried
on extensively, and was begun here about
four years ago. II is now in the hands Of
L. W. Clarke and Miellez * Co., who sell
many thousand dollars worth annually.
But few punches were sold at first, but as
the demand has steadily increased the
woods east and southeast of Springfield, in
Longmeadow, Wilbraham and Somers, have
been carefully CLEANED. Often the value of
land will exceed that Of an acre of corn, ,and
wood lots have been bought at high prices
solely to control the fern trade.
The season for gathering these ferns be-
gius about the middle of August and lasts
TILL late in the autumn. Originally only
fresh ferns we're sold, and those largely for
Christmas decorations, but the trade in the
pressed ferns is now by far the largest part
Of the business, and gives employment to a
number of hands. One dealer in this city
keeps about twelve girls at work pressing.
A dozen ferns are pressed in one string"
and one New York house has ordered twen-
ty thousand strings The pressed ferns are
sent all over the United States and Canada,
many going to California. They are used
mainly for wall decorations. and the ladies
will doubtless be surprised to learn that
their Western sisters often pay several dol
lars for ferns like those which can often be
obtained hereabouts during an afternoons
drive. The native fern like the native
American, resists all attempts at civiliza-
ton, and is an entire failure as a house
plant Springfield Republican.

BY comparison with the last State elecs

Facts for the People.

AS the virtues of medicines can only be ascer-
tanned by careful observation it is to be regretted
that many of the drugs still prescribed By some
Physicians should retain place in materia
medica. As an instance of this, that vile drug Bal
sam Copaiba furnishes example. About the year
1880 the Spanards in the Island of San Domingo
having become afflicted with certain complaints
thought according to the prevailing notion at that
time, that the remedy might be found where the
disease originated. Under this impression Balsam
Copaiba came into use but never has nauseating
drug done more injury, for it not only changes the
nature of the disease to dreadful state than
the original, but it ruins the tone of the stomach
and brings on Dyspepsia in its worst forms. To
avoid this drug and Its effects the SAMARITAN 5
GIFT a pure vegetable remedy is within the reach
of all Only ten pills to be taken and will cure every
time in from two to four days Male packages 50
