The Fourth Ward Tildcn and Hen
bricks Pole-One OF the Finest
shafts OF the Cify-The Democrats
Thore ushly Aroused.

The Fourth warn Viloeu ana Hen
bricks Pole-One or the Finest
shafts or the Ciiy-The Democrats
Thore ushly Aroused.
Editors OF the Register:
Those sterling Democrats, Capt. Geo.
Peppers, Capt. John Boring, VIM. Tay-
lor and others, 700 numerous to men
ton by name, succeeded to day in splicing
the pole at the corner OF Eighteenth and
Jacob streets, which WAS shattered In
raising on last Saturday.
The pole as it now stands is the pride
of the city. 1t is nearly 200 feet out OF
the ground, and is no doubt, the most
graceful, symetrical and beautiful shaft
which has been erected 10 Tilden and
Hendricks, within fifty miles OF the city.
Crumbacker will have to put another
splice of 80 feet TO the Hayes and Wheel
er concern on the same street or acknowl-
edge that he has been beaten. The way,
the boys worked at the pole raising shows
that they are in real sober earnest
in this fight and mean to elect their can
didates or die IN the effort. They say
the country needs reform. II is perfect
" Gel tain that it cannot come from the
Republican party. You might as well
expect hell to turn out the devil. Ii
You elect Hayes it will be only change
| OF rulcrS-not reform. But let Tilden
with his genius of publication get IN and
he will make such clear sweep that not
vestige OF the rotten concern at Wash
ington will remain in sixty days"
But to so back to the poe. What do
YOU think OF man climbing up to the
top of pole more than 100 feet high,
cutting off the spattered shaft at that
point, putting iron clasps on, fixing IRON
grips, and then through these strong iron
clasps, running up another shaft of 20
feet and fastening it there,
bearing a streamer so feet
long, bearing the names of Tilden and
Hendricks, flying far above him towards
the clouds. And yet this was done to-
day by Mr. Hazlett. He seemed TO have
no fear whatever, but came down and
went up almost as easily as n squirrel.
These pole rasings are good institu-
tions. They bring the people together,
strengthen party ties, and aid vastly In
cIecting honest men to office.
BY the way, we can say to the htetti-
gencer man that Petroleum V. is all
right, this side up with care, marked A
No. !, and warranted not cut in the eye.
Yours respectfully,
FOURTH WARD.

The IRON WoRKERs-We Amalga-
nation Likely to be E6ected.-The Ma
tiona, Conventions of the United Sons Of
Vulcan and the Heaters and Rollers
Association resssembled yesterday morn
ing. the former in Emerald Hall and the
latter in the Germania Bank building.
Routine affairs connected with their re-
spective associations were attended to by
both conventions, after which the sessions
were occupied by discussion OF the
proposed smalgamation. The meetings
are held with closed doors, so that we
are compelled to depend upon the state
ments OF delegates for our information.
They say, however, that there is but lit.
tie doubt that the amalgsmxtion will be
affected. The idea of the Union, it is
stated, it not TO have the advantage IN
case of strike, but toprevent strikes al
together. Il is thought that if the IRON
workers are amalgamsted, such arrange
ments could be made with mill owners
as would insugurste new era Of pros
perity, and be to the advantage Of all
parties.-Pittsburgh Post.

The AUGUST METEoRs.-The time
for the annual display of the august
meteors" is fast approaching. These
visitors from the inter-plan etarv regions
commence TO enter the earth's atmos-
phere about the 9th of August, and, from
that time until the 18th, are visible in
varying numbers. The period of max
imum display occurs generally on the
night of the 10th of August. They do
not come in sucn countless multitudes as
the November meteors, but their ap-
pearance may be relied on with certainty.
The August meteors very rarely miss
their appointment on the night of the
10th in each succeeding year, and may
be seen Of all degrees of brillIaRcy.

What Tan BE Cured

Need not be endured, although what cant
must be. Among the bodily ills suscAa'l-
bic of complete removal by tHat benign
tonic and Alternative, Hosteil"i > stomach
Bitters, are general debility, maiariai
levers, constipation, dyspepsia, liver dis
order, and nervousness. Its remedial
capabilities are, however, by no means
limited to these maladies. Its proprietles
as blood depurent render IL extremely
serviceable in expelling the acrid impuri-
ties which produce those painful disorders
rheumatism and govt, and its nvigorat-
ing and mildly stimulating effect upon the
kidneys and bladder constitute II a useful
medicine for impelling those organs 10 a
complete performance Of their functions
when they are weak and inactive. In fact
there is scarcely any disease OF which
weakness Is an accompaniment, I'm which
this admirable medicine cannot he used
with advantage.

1T is one of the easiest things in this

exactly where our Indian question

A LADY writes TO us saying that she

whether she can be compelled to an
swer. We say emphstical;y "No| Not
only can she refuse to tell her age, but
even if she gratuitously gives it to the
court, her testimony cannot be admitted.
1t is, at best, but heresay evidence. No

troubled; all her testimony about her age
is illegal and improper, and cannot be
admitted in court.
