W. Towle, carriage maker, of burglary in re-
moving certain sleighs from the shop of Mr..
Robinson seems to bave resulted from some
misapprehension. The sleighs in question
were made by Towle and ironed by Robinson,
who held them by mechanics lien for labor and
material Mr.. Towle says that he had paid
about one-half sof the bill for the ironing and
that he took away the sleighs for the purpose
of selling them and with the intention of pay
ing the balance of the bill on the next day. He
also says that there was an understanding that
he should remove the sleghs from the shop to
the depot on Dec. 9th, the day on which they
were taken away. The grand jury found no
indictment against Mr.. Towle for his action in
the premises. - L. |. LIZ

Gentlemen: must express my gratitude for the
wonderful cure performed by your Rsoder's Ger
man Snuff. 1 had been afflicted with -Catarrh for
many years, and it caused my hearing to become so
poor that was totally deaf tried many remedies,
but without any benefit; but at last purchased
box of German Snuff and its use not only entirely
cured my Catarrh, but what yet more wonderful,
my hearing fully restored, and after having been
deaf for years, can now hear as well as any one.
This Snuff should be spread broadcast the land,
for it will prove blessing to all who use it.
Yours very truly,
MRS. MILO STRATTON. 4

spent hundreds dollars on worthless trash without
any real benefit, but remember that in this simple

10 the Democracy OF Crawford
and Franklin Counties.
A mass meeting, held ut Pleasant II III

A mass meeting, held at Pleasant Hill,
Ark, August 10Th, 1876, DR.. J. F. Davis
was chosen chairman, and +. W. Lee,
Secretary. The following appeal was
passed As a resolution.
FELLOW CITIZEN 5: In the present SEN
atorlal contest, II appears that there are
two democratic candidates in the field,
Hons. l.. l.. Witch and B. L. Armstead,
and their respective claims not being
definitely settled, bya joint convention
OF the two counties, leaves us divided
party regarding them. The republican
party stands as unit, and warns us to
concentrate our forces, and cast our votes
for one man, otherwise endanger our in
terests, as a party, and the interests Of
our State.
Therefore, we, your fellow-citizens,
earnestly petition the democratic com
mittees Of Crawford and Franklin coun-
ties to meet us at Pleasant Hill, Arkan-
sas, on Saturday next, to then and there
enter into some compromise with the two
candidates of the democratic party, and
ensure solid united democratic front
in the ensuing election. We also call
upon the two candidates to meet us there.
Also extend an invitation to the eiti-
zens at large of the two counties to at
tend en- masse on that day, at one o'clock
p. NJ.
Resolved, That this appeal be publish
