MARCUS JONES,
5Ot No. 1901 Second Street.
eubnrban NuIsances.

Numerous complaints have been made
to the psliee and the sheriff as to the
disorderly crowds Of negroes and white
boys who meet in the suburbs on Sundays
to play base ball, and who indulge in I'm.
ruly conduct, profanity and vulgarity
These meetings being outside the cor
poration the police have no Jurisdiction
in the matter, nor has the sheriff either,
judging from the following section Of the
Code of Tennessee which presents the
only remedy for the nuisance, which
ought to be abated or regulated in some
manner:
Section l724 Any person who shall
hunt, fish, OrpIay any game Of sport or
be drunk on Sunday, as aforesaid, shall
be subject to the same proceedings and
liable 10 the same penalties as those who
work on the Sabbath.
NOTE The penalty in the preceding
section (tor working on the Sabbath day
is: He shall, on due conviction thereof
before any justice Of the peace OF the
county, forfeit and pay So, one-half to
the person who will sue for the same;
the other half for the use Of the county.
All that is necessary is for some per
son sggrieved to present the names of the
violators Of law before some magistrate,
and nave them arrested and punished in
the manner prescribed above.

A Country Parsons Odd Thoughts.

For preaching, which will come home
to mems business and bosoms, which
will not appear to ignore those things
which of necessity occupy the greater
part of an ordinary mOrtaPs thoughts,
commend me to the preacher who has
learned by experience what are human
ties and what is human worry.
There is no more sunshiny inmate OF
any home than the happy tempered one,
who has the art of putting all things In
a pleasant light, from the great misfor-
tunes in life down to a broken carriage
spring, a servants failings, or a child's
salts and senna.
When little child on being offered a
third plate of plum pudding, says with
a wistful look, "No, thank you," think
of your own childish days, think what
plum-pudding was then, and instantly
send the little man another slice.
Many men, when they go into the
country, put off frock coats and stiff
stocks and pitch away the vile, hard hat
of city prosperity, and replace them by
loose suits, a soft handkerchief and the
Welding wide-awake, and thus do men
tally pass through process of relief.
All people have tangles in their life
and affairs that cannot be unraveled !;
sorrowful things, which they think can
not be helped. Do not lock the closet
deor upon the skeleton bring it out and
air it; perhaps it may prove to be only
the skeleton of cat, or even no skeleton
at all

Witnesses who Know Nothing.

The country will learn shortly how
much it has been called upon to pay for
witnesses summoned by Democratic
committees at this session. The majsr-
ity of Democratic journals are not ex-
pected to tell the truth of the wretched
farce of the Congressional investigations
now being held, or of the abominable
frauds practiced in summoning wit
nesses. Cbairmen of the committees
have little intention to investigate or to
arrive at facts. What is desired is to
obtain the presence of those who will
boldly make charges against prominent
Republicans or the Republican party.
And the object of all these Investigations
is not truth, but to obtain capital to
help the Democracy in the campaign.
The Democratic party at the opening
of the session seemed to have borrowed
the voice of Governor Allen; and hav-
ing got possession of it, to howl through
the country what they intended to do,
they put forward claim to his honesty,
and have clung to it ever since. By this
act of petty knavery the harmony of the
Democratic party has been preserved.
The honesty of Bill Allen consisted in
his having been hard money man all
his life, until a candidate for reelection
as Governor of Ohio, when he stumped
the State for soft money as a means of
public salvation, roaring for greenbacks
like the interesting sucking that he is.
The Democratic party has got his hon.
esty and are satisfied with it, and they
proceed to put into operation by saying
one thing and doing another.
The honest Democratic party has,
therefore, set out on two errands: First,
it has undertaken to discover Repub-
lican extravaganza; and secondly when
found it says it is the duty of the Dem
ocratic party to correct it. This sounds
well, and that is all there is in it, and
all that is meant to be in it. For how
can Mr.. Randall be a great Democratic
saver with $1,000 of the salary grab in
his pocket which the country needs
How can the Democratic party be the
great American money-saving machine
when its reckless expenditures by in
vestigating committees is so notorious
Never we're Congressional investigations
so prostituted as are those now being
made. Anybody can be witness from
anywhere. 1t does not matter whether
he has anything to testify to or not
there is the per diem and the mileage
which the honest Democratic chairmen
know how to dispense so lavishly. In
the Spencer investigation the cost to the
Treasury was upward of S11, 900. A
cloud of witnesses from the State Of
Alabama appeared, and other clouds
were ready to come; but the cloudy
character of what they knew was soon
apparent, and the gentlemen, who had
quartered themselves at one of the no.
tells on Pennsylvania avenue, whiled
away the time, which hung heavily on
their hands, by calculating how much
their witness fees increased day by day
True, they were bummers, glad to come
at the invitation of any Democratic
chairman of any Democratic committee
for the money offered.

The London GaminS.

MIR. John Ormsby, in his "Stray
Papers," tells the following story of the
London Arabs We once saw the Strand
thrown into terror, confusion, and dis
tress by the unaided wit of two boys. 1t
was one of those foggy, damp Decem-
Der evenings, when the lamps looked
like blurred moons, and objects twenty
yards off are all but indistinguishable.
< These playful youths had got a
suit of old clothes and some straw, out
of which they had made an image suffi
cieptly like a man to pass muster in that
uncertain light. With this, counterfeit
ing the action of afectionate sons lead
ing home a beloved but intoxicated
father, they would suddenly appear in
front of some passing omnibus and then,
affecting to lose all presence of mind,
allow their helpless parent to fall almost
under the feet of the horses. The scene
may be imagined. Terror of the pas
sengers, horror of the driver, horses
down through having been sharply
turned aside or pulled up on the greasy
pavement, general agitation, which
eliminated at length when an omnibus,
with more way on than usual, actually
passed over the body, the wretched
driver of course suffering the mental
agonies OF a homicide until relieved by
seeing the straw intestines Of his victim.

CaStOria.

Dr.. Samuel Pitcher, of Hyannis, Mass, expert
mented in his private practice for twenty years to
produce combination that would have the prop
critics of Castor OH without its unpleasant taste
and gripping effect.
His preparation was sent for, near and far, TIL
finally he gave it the name of Castoria, and put it
mp for sale. 1t is very wonderful in its effects,
particularly with the disordered stomachs and bow
els of children. Iassimilates the food, cures sour
stomach and wind-colic, regulates the bowels, ex-
pells worms, and may be relied upon in Group.
As pleasant, effective and perfectly safe cathar-
tic remedy it is superior to Castor oi Cordials and
syrupe. II does not contain ALCOHOL and is adapt
ed 10 any age
By regulating the stomach and bowels of cross
and sickly children they become good-natured and
healthy. They can enjoy sleep and mothers hare
rest. The Csstoria is put up at the Laboratory OF

color, aCith the gloss and freshness Of
yaitth. Thin hair is thickened, fall
ing hair checked, and badness often,
though not always, cured by its
use. Nothing can restore the hair
where the follicles are destroyed, or
the glands atrophied and decayed;
but such as remain can be saved by
this application, and stimulated into
activity, so that new growth of
hair is produced. Instead of fouling
the hair with pasty sediment, it
will keep it clean and vigorous. Its
occasional use will present the hair
from turning gray Or falling off,
and consequently prevent badness.
The restoration of vitality it gives
to the scalp arrests and prevents
the formation of dandruff, which is
often so uncleanly and offensive.
Free from those deleterious sub
stances which make some prepara-
tions dangerous, and injurious to the
hair, the Vigor can only benefit, but
not harm it. If wanted merely for
a HAIR DRESSING, nothing else
can be found so desirable. Contain
ing neither oil nor dye, it does not
soil white cambric, and yet lasts
long on the hair, giving it rich,
glossy lustre, and grateful perfume.
