Shall We have Coed Roads?

This question is agitating the public
mind in many sections Of the state.
Heretofore the people have thought that
they were too poor to build good roads,
but the truth is, We are too poor to have
bad roads, Our people are too poor to
keep four horses TO do the work which
two might dc, too poor to buy two
wagons to haul what one might carry,
too poor to spend an entire day in doing
what light be done in one~fourth of a
day, too poor to permit our time and our
resources to be wasted because we have
not taken time to think. Let US consid-
er this matter.

CURE FOR ToorHACHE.-Dr Dyce
Duckworth, an English physician, con-
tributes short memorandum on this
subject. He was called on lately to
treat case Of very severe toothache,
and tried various ordinary remedies, in
Guiding choroform and carbolic acid,
without any benefit to the patient. He
then remembered having read that the
pain might be relieved. by holding in
the month solution Of bIcarbonate of
soda. lie gave the patient half =
drachm in an ounce of water, and, 10
his establishment, the pain ceased imme.
diately and complete relief was secured
He thinks that as the remedy $ so
slmplessand the disease so distressing and
often lntractable, this treatment may be
worthy Of notice and imitation

As we go topress we hear of a sad aeci :
dent to M Martin Burkhart. resident of
this place. He was driving a six horse
team across the mountain near Castleman g
Ferry, on Wednesday, when the horses
ran away. Bnrkhart attempted to jump
off when his foot caught in the stirrup
dragging him and the wagon passing over
him. He WAS hauling haypressing
machine to Loudoun county. Mr.. b. was
in business with Messrs. Wall s Ebersole
of this place. At the time our informant
left him TO bring the report to his wife
and family in this town, slender hopes
were enter tanned OF his life. and perhaps
before this he is dead. Burkhart was
from Pennsylvania but has lived here
some years. lie Was some time since
severely injured by Il threshIng machine.

~ American Press Association.


WASHINGTON, April A.-The testimony
taken by Mr.. Glover's committee in regard
to the pension agency at Macon, Mo-, shows
In brief the following facts: A Mr.. VIM.
c. Ebert was pension agent, and Mrs.
Louis Boggs of st. Louis, whose husband
had formerly been the partner Of President
Grant in the real estate business In that
city, wanted clerkship in the Office as
sinsecure. Ebert replied to her letter de-
manding this, saying that if she would use
her influence with the President to prevent
his removal he would give her the place
she wanted at certain time. After this
Ebert raised some objections to the fulfil
ment of the bargain, the principal one being
that he had been raided upon by "certain
political shysters" for having one rebel
clerk, and if he was to employ her they
would raise the same cry because she was
rebel. Mrs. Boggs dropped Ebert and had
Mrs. Clements appointed, who gave her
the sinsecure, whereby she realized 81 EOS
per snnum. On the first letter from Ebert
10 Mrs. Boggs. wherein he tells her that
she can have the clerkship If she will use
her influence with the President to have
him (Ebert) retained, there is an endorse
ment in Grants own handwriting to the
effect that Mrs. Boggs would make good
clerk. This shows that he had read the
letter and knew on what conditions Ebert
agreed to give Mrs. Boggs the position.

Miss DickimsOn's Play,

Miss Dickinsen's new play is entitled "a
Crown of Thorns," and she is to take in it
the part Of Anne Boleyn. She has, been at
work on this play since she retired from the
lecture field last winter. It is of course
like everything else she does, absolutely hel
own throughout, in conception and execu:
tion. There have been noue of the consul
tations with actors and plsywrights, usual
in the case of new American play, none
Of the usual reyisions and adaptations by
managers. She has wisely chosen to 20
before the public solely with her own, and
to stand or fall as it may merit. For that
verdict readers will wait: but meanwhile II
will be of interest to know that Mr.. Waller,
Mr.. Cheney's veteran stage manager, says
it is without exception the best manuscript
play he has ever had in his hands-that 1t
was ready to be put upon the stage exactly
as it was first handed to him, without a
single change, or the cutting of line. 1t
is understood to be full of dramatic situa-
tions, and to be peculiarly an acting play
rather than one to be read.

The Cars Illness.

A London letter to the Graphic says
II III the Russian newspapers are to be
trusted we are on the eve of witnessing
stirring events in the East. The Moscow
journal, very influential paper, is at this
moment engaged in violent attacks upon
Austria, aud warns the world that war IL
not far distant. Another journal published
in Germany, but written In Russia and
printed in the Russian language, has Gu
rious letter from St. Petersburg, in which
the writer says:
''The Emperor is getting weaker daily.
The death of his sister, Maria Nicelsievna,
his junior by one year, greatly-upset him.
lie is worried beyond endurance by all that
is going on around him. The Socialistic
Propaganda, the financial embarrassments,
the little tricks played by his au-
gust relatives-nay, even the steady prog
ress ofRussian conquests in the East, much
as is made of them before foreigners, disquiet
the Car. There is something terrible in
these. interminable additions to the
empire. Every new an
nexation absorbs many troops. Now no
one can tell how soon We may require all
the troops we have, either in the South for
the settling of the Oriental question, or on
the Anglo German frontier. The three
Emperors'l alliance being anything but
but firmly established, no one can tell what
may happen next. The worst of all is the
load of grief weighing down the Emperor
in consequence of the unceremonious he.
hayior of His Majesty's next of kin. Pre-
maturely old and sickly, the Emperor, who
knows the interested intrigues of those
around him, cannot but be aware that the
conduct. of certain persons is, to say the
least oft, unhandsome. = Tired of
all these unpleasantnssses, the Emperor is
daily attending 70 public affairs. His dear
est wish is to be left to himself to enjoy the
rest of his days in peace"
The disposition OF tho CEarewitch is then
described. He is said to be deeply attached
to his wife, "whose most prominent trait
is hatred of the Germans" 1t is added he,
sand more particularly his wife, would like
to 60 to war with Germany"
