valued for furniture should be called

arc half II dozen or more kinds of

The mass of the negroes, true To
the instinct OF their nature, dcs orted
tho trembling carpet bayyor and
rushed to the side Of boldness and
'ntidence, and tho election was
won. But moro quiet, poaccaklo
and orderly election was never held
III this or any other State. If there
was any intimidation in this, it was
but the intimidation which outraged

which fell upon the polluters of the
tomp'e when the Saviour of mankind
in righteous indignation, drove them
out from his Fathers house. The
giant of Mississippi had been shorn
of his strength, and lay bound, blind
and bleeding before Alncs and his
minions, and when suddenly, like

bound his limbs, the hearts of the

that when once tho sovereignty of
mississippi was aroused that he

that when once his weakness was
exposed, the negro would desert

been intimidated by him by the false
charge that the Democracy would
rc-cns!avc him if they came into
power, and that one Democratic
victory would forever expose this
shallow fn!sc-hood He knew that
the mass Of the negroes had been
lntlmidatel into tho support OF the
IL 'dlcal party in past times by
thlcrts of expulsion from their
churches, cxpulsion,, from their
societies, and with threats Of death
itself if they dared to vote the
Democratic ticket. And wien he
heard the bold announcement of the
Democratic party that they would
protect any negro who chose to
vote with them, he saw the spell

SUDDEN DEATH OF Col. A. IL. SrAK

SUDDEN DEATH OF Col. A. Il. STAKE.
On Saturday evening last about 5
o'clock, Col A. II. Stake of this town,
feel! dead near the depot of the Western
Maryland railroad, from a stroke of apo
plexy. The deceased had not been
feeling well for some time, but nothing
serious was apprehended by his friends,
yet there seems to have been a lurking
premonition in his mind of something
serious happening, as he remarked
about noon of the day of his death to a
gentleman with whom he partook oys-
tiers, that those oysters might possibly
be the last he would eat. His com
plexion, also, was noticed by the writer
of this, who saw and talked with him
an hour or two before his death, to
have been peculiarly pale, which was
unusual with the deceased, for he was
generally healthy in appearance.
Col. Stake was one of the best known
men of Western Maryland, and poll
titan who had few superiors anywhere,
and had served several terms in the
House OF Delegates of this State. He
also had filled many positions on the
Chesapeake and Ohio Canal, and at the
time of his death was a Director Of the
same. Ola naturally social and genial
nature, and having a kind heart and
generous hand he made friends amongst
all classes of society, and manys the
hearty laugh have those friends had at
the queer and harmless drollery of the
Colonel, yet there was strong vein of
good common practical sense, running
through him that never failed to make
his opinions respected by all. He was
buried yesterday in the Cemetery at
Williamsport, his remains being accom-
panied by Friendship Lodge, A. +. d
A. NJ, of this place, and Joined at the
town named by Medairy Lodge, A. +.
& A. NJ, when the beautiful and i'm
pressive Masonic burial services were
held at the grave.-HagersioWa TDice-

The March Of Reason.

There are certain pretended philoso-
pliers and wiseacres who, VIXEN you speak
to them of the progress OF mankind, shake
their heads and talk Of the good old days
before steam was applied and the Morse
telegraph invented. Away with such
humbug! The great discoveries which
have enriched mankind; united by wire
link great na.ions separated by mighty
seas, dwarfed Space with Speed, and re-
duced disease TO its minimum, cannot by
any exercise Of ingenuity be demOnstra-
ted to be aught bur blessings.
Among the sanatOry discoveries OF the
nineteenth century is one, that in view OF
the salutary influence it has exerted, de-
serves a foremost place. We allude to
Hostetter's Stomach Bittcrs which Is one
of the most deservedly celebrated tonics
and alternatives of the present day. The
most unimpeachable testimony establish
es the fact that this popular medicated
stimulaut and corrective annihilates lndl-
gestion, constipation, urinary complaints,
malarial disorders, and many affections oil
the sensitive organs. In the mining re-
gions and new clearings of the West, IL Is
regarded by the inhabitants as an indis-
pensable means of preventing, is well as
curing chills and fever, aud there is
scarcely city or town in the Union, some
of whOee denizens have not horne witness
to its efficacy in remedying the first nam
ed class of maladies.
As an invigOrant, appetizer aud carmi-
native, Hostetter's Bitters are incompara-
bly, the most effective and purest. Their
basis Of line old rye, the most healthful al
coholic spirit attainable, is of itself no
mean tonic, but its strengthening proper
ties are increased fifty fold by the vegeta-
bic extracts which it holds in solution,
and to which the surprising quality OF
thp Rittrrs are dine
