To ALL, particularly invalids, spring Is

10 ALL, particularly lnvalids, spring Is
trying season. Indications Of sickness should
at once be attended to. Fatal diseases may be
caused by allowing the bowels to become consti-
pated and the system to remain in q disordered
condition until the disorder has time to develop
ITSELF An ounce Of prevention is worth pound
Of cure, is old and truthful saying. Therefore,
We advise all who are troubled with the complaints
now very prevalent headache, indigestion, disor-
dered liver. want Of appetite, nausea, or feverish
skin-to take, without delay, Schenck's Mandrake
Pills. We know of no remedy so harmless and
decisive in its action. 1t at once strikes e. he
root Of the disease and produces healthy tone to
the system. People never need suffer from any
disease arising from disordercd condition of the
liver if they would take this excellent medicine
when they feel the first indications of the malady
Families leaving home for the summer months
should take three four boxes of these pills with
them. They have an almost instantaneous effect.
They will relieve the patient of headache in one or
two hours, and will rapidly cleanse the liver of
surrounding bile, and will effectual1y prevent
bilious attack. They are sold by all druggists.

CENTENNIAL HYMN.

Written for the opening of the Exhibition a
Philadelphia, by John G. Whitlier.l =
Onr fathers, God! from out whose hand
The centuries fall like grains of sand,
We meet to-day, united, free,
And loya, to our land and Thee,
To thank Thee for the era done,
And trust Thee for the opening one.
Here, where Of old, by Thy design,
The fathers spake that word of Thine
Whose echo is the glad refrain
or rcnded bolt and falling chain,
To grace our festal time, from all
The zones of earth our guests we call.
Be with us while the New World grects
The Old World thronging all its streets,
Unwilling all the triumphs won
BY art or toll beneath the sun;
And unto common good ordain
This rivalship OF hand and brain.
Thou, who hast here in concord furlcd
The war flags of a gathered world,
Beneath our western skies fulfil
The Oricnt's mission of good will,
And, f,cightcd with Loves golden fleece,
send back its Argonauts Of peace.
For art and labor met in truce,
For beauty made the bride OF use,
We thank Thee; but. withal, we crave
The austere virtues strong to gave,
The honor proof to place or gold,
The manhood never bought nor sold!
o! make Thou US, through centuries long,
In peace secure in justice strong;
Around our gilt of freedom draw
The safeguards of Thy righteous law;
And, cast in some divincr mold,
Let the new cycle sha ne the old!

A Rraiu. soothinx Remedy.

The wondrous organ that crowns the edi-
flee Of man is not only the seat Of reflection
and the home of Ideally, but it is the gov
erning center of the nervous system: When
it is overwrought, unduly excited, or af-
gans with which it most closely sympathizes,
all the nerves suffer, and the general health
is impaired. The reason why Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters exercise such soothing in
fiuence upon the brain is, that they remove
those digestive and bilious arrangements
which react injuriously upon it and that in
sympathetic nerve which connects the stom-
ach and the brain, they benclcially affect the
latter organ as well as the former. Sound
sleep, clearness Of mind, easy digestion and
freedom from biliousnes are insured by this
prime regulative tonic and nervine.

THE flame of an Argand burner pos
sesses the greatest intensity of light when
the quantity of air is supplied at such a
rate as to bring the flame just beyond the
smoking point. When more air is sup
piled, the flame becomes more and more
pale, blush and less luminous, while
with great excess of air, it burns with
almost no light, like Bunsen burner.

The village of Vattis, in Switzerland, a
few weeks ago was visited by dust ava
lanche, which precipitated itself down the
steep side of the Calanda. 1t caused a
displacement of air the effects of which,
in unroofing houses, breaking windows
and throwing down chimneys, were equal
to those of a tornado. Fortunately no

THE NEGRO MURDERERS.

The outrages committed in South
Carolina, lately, by the carpet-baggers
and the negroes are truly horrible,
The Philadelphia Times, in alluding to
the fruits born of Radical reconstruc-
ton, says: "ln fixing the responsible
ty for disturbance of thepeace inSouth
Carolina we must not lose sight of the
fact that every department of the State
government is in the hands of the Re
publican party. The Governor is Re-
publican, the Legislature is Republican
and the militia is composed entirely of
colored Republicans If peace cannot
be maintained, the Republicans are re-
sponsible. If Governor Chamberlain
is not able to maintain the peace he
may invoke the aid of the courts, order
out the militia, or convene the Legis-
lature, in full confidence that either
will do his bidding. But it serves his
purpose better to fan the flames of
strife until there is a-plausible prctext
for calling upon the Federal Govern
ment for assistance in quenching them.
Peace is the last thing these carpet
baggcrs want. They live upon disor-
der, The bloody shirt must be dipped
again before it is CORY enough to fire
the Northern heart. But Chamber
lain and Patterson should have care.
Murder and rape may excite the white
people Of their State to the desired
pitch of desperation, but such crimes
are not likely to quicken the sympathy
of the Northern people for the perpe-
traitors, much less will it inspire respect
for State Government which allows
them to pass unpunished. A few scenes
like those in Charleston and Augusta
may even dissipate the righteous in
dignation over the riot at Hamburg"

AT RANDOM.

The following minion editorial APP
peared in the Philadelphia Times, of
the goth inst:
The Democrats Of clear6eld have nominated
Il. A. Mackey, present member, for Congress /;
W. W. Belts for Senator, and A. c. Tate for As
sembly. Mr.. Belts was nominated, after a rather
animated contest, over Senator T. J. Boyer, who
was again a candidate, but as the county has had
the State Senator for dfteen years, aud has the
United States Senator now, the claims Of Centre
and Clinton for the succession will be pressed
with vigor and apparently with good reason. The
district, like the county, 10 strongly Democratic,
and Is good for its 800 for Tilden II the October
States don't knock him clear out Of time.
We will furnish the writer little
more information. Centre and Clin-
ton have had the Judges and Congress
man for fifty years, and expect to fur
nish them for an indefinite number OF
years And now, to put in a plea for
the Senator is certainly piling it on a
little too thick. Clearfield Is entitled
to the Senator while the other two
counties have the two Judges and the
Congressman.
More than this, Clearfeld expects to
give LOO or 1900 Democratic major.
ity, and if Centre and Clinton together
cannot furnish the 1900 alluded to in
the Times, they had better give up the
Senatorship and one of the Judges, or
the Congressman, to make things even.
We mean business.
N. B.-The minion editor of the
Times had better let our local matters
alone and turn his attention to the
Pilgrims Of his own vicinage. When
we want his advice, We will call upon
him.

themselves perfectly at home. Schuy-
Ter Colfax has been resurrected and is

All the old Rings have suddenly

their zeal for "the cause Swept away
by the popular current of 1874, and
excluded from all liberation by the
Democratic House of Representatives,
they are now making their great rally
and cxpending the last dollar to elect
Hayes. They know better than all
others that Tilden's success means
death TO the Rings. Thcy know, too,
that the influences which now control
the Republican party would govern
Hayes, even more absolutely than they
do Grant, who, TO say the least, is not
always a passive instrument. Every
one OF the great Rings is enlisted ac-
lively, and the chiefs outside of the
penitentiary have the best assurance
that their coniederatcs inside will be
released after the election, no matter
how it may CO."

The RADICAL RoBBtRs.-F Four years
ago Jay Cooke, Henry Clcws and
other bankers and brokers enjoying
the iavors of the Treasury, issued an
address in which they declared that
the reelection Of Grant was necessary
for the continuance of tho financial
prosperity of the country. Besides is.
suing this address they contributed
large sums of money to carry the elcc.
tons. One year after that the finan.
cial bubble collapsed. Cooke, Clews
d Co. have not considered IL worth
while to issue an address in favor of
Hayes this year. As financial proph-
cts they were not successes.

they agreed in their tally, the Chair.
man announced the above result, As
ii took thirty, nine TO make majority
OF seventy-seven, the number of votes
cast, it was evident that this was an
Intellectual ballot, and that no one had
been nominated, and the Chairman or.
dered that the Convention proceed to
a second ballot under rule Thirteenth.
Mr.. Steiner, of Decatur, moved that
The rule in question be suspended, and
that the Convention proceed to take
the second ballot and dropping the
lowest candidate as though si.r ballots
had been taken. After some consider
able debate had been INDUCED in, the
rule was suspended by over three
iourths vote, the second ballot ordered
and the name of Mr.. Read was dropped.
