Farmers, Look Well to Your Ina.

Had it not been for the devil there
would have never been a church asso-
ciotion. Had the farmers never been
wronged there would never have been
a Granger association. II isthe oppres-
sion of unprincipled men that has ours
ed all labor associations. The money
created by the muscles of the honest
farmers has drifted into the hands Oh
the few who lord over us. Poverty mas
invaded the homes of every honest to'i-
or. not because We do not proauce
enough or sufficiency, but because we
do not receive the profits on our LABOR
Taxation, direct or indirect'is rooolhs
us ON every side, aud our legislators lor
tho want of liberty or principle, are
morteaging our homes, not sa'isned'
,hov are mortgagiug forever the labor

" Concerning office-holders and legislaI-
,iop. DO you not know the army ot
otfice seekers is cooperating ring,
eno;neered by the "moneyed power,
and whose fundamental principale is,
You tickle me and I'll tickle you; or
in other words, "You put me in office
and Ill give you sugar teat to suck
The capitalists, monopolists, the pro-
tessional and middlemer, and Office
holders get the benefit OF legislation
The working men are too poor and can
It buy their share The great business
of our legislation is toincrease taxes and
make laws to compel the working class
es TO pay them. .
We boast of our republican form of
government, and yet we pay more tax
per capita than any government on
earth. One hundred years ago our
brave, patriotic fathers were lighting
against British oppression because OF
one dollar on the hundred; and to-day
we are celebrating their lndomltable
courage while we are paying from i've
10 seven dollars on hundred. ms
terrible tax makes the Centennial go
rather slow with the laOoriVus, tax pay
inc men of the country. We are not as
tree to-day as our fathers were hun
drcd wears ago, the Fourth OF July,
I776, and British yeomanry are better
off today than we are, so far as taxes
are concerned.

. ueai,h.Promoting stimuIant.

Physicians, who certainly ought to be
the best judges of such mattars, declare
that wholesome stimulation is not only
desirable but essential in many instances.
When the temporary good effect OF
sound stimulant is confirmed and render
ed permanent, as in the case of Hostel
ter's Stomach Bitters, by the action OF
tonic and Alternative principles combined
with it, it becomes infinitely more eflica-
cious as renOvant of physical energy
and corrective of those conditions OF the
BODY which invite disease. The Bltters
have received the emphatic sanction OF
medical mer who have observed the effect
of that popular stimulative cordial as a
remedy for weakness, nervousness, dys-
pepsia, constipation, inactivity of the llv-
er, malarious fevers, and many other DIS
orders. Its basis is sound old rye, the
purest liquor known to commerce, ana IT.
self possessing tonic properties OF no
mean order.

PEEL-FELsINGER.-W see by the
Pittsburgh papers of yesterday that
Robert Peel of Philadelphia has chal-
lenged Louis Felsinger of Wheeling, to
row a three mile single scull race, for
5000 side, allowing $25 for expenses,
and is willing to meet Felsinger at harry
Beaumonts, No. 6 Smithfield street, Pitts
burgb, this morning. The race, if made,
is to take place at Philadelphia on the
4th prox. The probabilities are that the
challenge will not be noticed by Felsin-
ger, the amount being too small, in the
first place, to justify HIM In going into
training; and in the second place, VIXEN
we consider the fact that Felsinger, i'll a
former challenge, which he will
yet make good, proposed to row Peel for
$500 over the Pittsburgh course, which
challenge Peel has not yet accepted, but
instead insists on rowing in Philadel.
phia for sum of money which will not
defray the expenses of the oarsman and
trainer, we cannot but think that il
would be IA unwise move in Felsinger to
accept.

Snarles, however, was most too much for
one man to handle, and several gen.
tlemen present were called to assist in
making the arrest, and it required the
combined strength of tour ren
to convey him to the lock up. Snarles
claims to have come from Staunton. Va.
and says he has been working in the

THE CHILDREN HoME.-There will
be committee to wait on our citl2ets
shortly to solicit aid in defraying the
expenses of the Chlden's Home for the
coming year, and we hope to hear OF
liberal contributions from our people
for this excellent purpose. A year or
more ago an effort was on foot to
eadow the institution SO that
i. would be self-sustaining and if we
rightly remember, some twenty of our
wealthy citizens sort of obligated them
selves to contribute a sum aggregating
$4,000, but somehow the promises have
not yet materialized that is q portion OF
them at least. We were informed that one
of the "sold" twenty, Mr.. Wallace, be-
came impatient waiting on the rest and
so staked his ST 900 where he thought it
would do the most good, and it is now
bearing rich fruit in the shape of interest.
Two other gentlemen who desire to be
namnless in the transaction, have con-
tributed respectively $3.50 and $3.50 to
the same fund, and SO the good work goes
slowly on. But it must be re-
membered by our people that
these contributions are but the
neuclus of a fund that must remain in
tact, therefore, as far as the present is
concerned, additional money is needed
to provide for the "wee uns y during
the coming year. So when the com
mittee calls on you, I" Let your light SO
shine before men, that they may see
your good works, and glorify your
father which is in Heaven"
