DELAYS ARE DANeERous--If this axiom
is true respecting the ordinary affairs of life,
still more obviously so as regards the exigen-
cips of approaching disease. PROFESSIONALLY!
Yethow many neglect to practically recognize
t his plain truth when health is in she balance.
OF the many premonitory symptoms of dis
ease hacking cough is the most prophetic of

Harris PINE TREE TAR CORDIAL, and so
avoid Consumption. Bronchitis, Inflammation
Of the Lungs, Coughs Colds, and, indeed all
Affections Of the Respiratory Organs are el,-
tirely cured by this sovereign remedy, which
also eradicates Dyspepsia, Gravel Piles Ner-
vous Debility, Tropidity of the Liver Urinary
Difficulties, Constipation, palpitatiop of the
Heart, Scrofulous Affections, and the infrmi-
ties peculiar to the gentler sex. This Cordial
derives its virtues from the vegetable king
dom, and is infinitely to be preferred, both on
count of its superior efficacy and freedom
f,om nauseous and injurious properties to the
official drugs so often administered with no
other effect than to offend the palate and dis

THE FIRST PRESIDENT.


The opinion that Washington was our first
President is a very prevalent one and yet It
is by no means the literal truth Incidentally
he was the first President under our present
Constitution but he had fourteen predeces-
sors under the revolutionary government and
confederation. The first of these was Peyton
Randolph, of Virginia, wbo was chosen Sep
TENDER 5th, 1774; and who died in Office
shortly Observation-Disclosures 22d, 1774. He
was succeeded by Henry Middleton, Of South
Carolina, who remained in Office until May
gath, IT'S, at which time John Hancock, Of
Massachusetts, was elected. The latter
served until November 1st, TIT, when Henry
Laurens, of South Carolina, succeeded him.
Next came John Gay, Of New York, who was
appointed December 10th, 1778. In 1879,
September 2Sth, Samuel Huntingdon, Of Con

Scarcity Of Money.

There is no doubt but the present condition
of all kinds of business and industry is fear
fully depressed, and it behooves every family
to look carefully to their expenses. Winter
is coming on when children arc liable to
Group, Whooping Cough, etc. Coughs and
Colds will prevail everywhere, and Consump-
ton, with other throat and lung diseases, will
carry off many. These diseases should not be
neglected. Doctors bills are expensive, and
we would advise our people 10 use BoscHEE's
GERMAN SYRUP. 1t never has failed One
bottle at rs cents will keep your whole family
well during the winter. Two doses will re-
lieve any case. Sold in all towns of the Unit

Eor HE RECORD.
Pubic ExHIBITIoN.--O Friday afternoon
last, tho members Of the Hyperion Society,
at Ringoes, under the supervision of their
teacher, Mrs. K. b. Larson, gave their ac-
customed literary entertainment, consisting
of orations, essays, dialogues, debate aud
readings from the Hyperion.
Without chanctelizing specially any part
Of the exercises, it gives us pleasure to notice
that all acquitted themselves creditahly, and
r BY their conduct before largo audience, com
mended their preceptresslo the publicas me
well qualified to discharge wisely aud we'll the
duties cf teacher.
The school room, although quite large. was
filled to the completeness of good-natured
Centcuuiai jam, some Of the audience having
driven a considerable distance TO enjoy the
rich treat Of rare good things furnished on
these occasions NJ va ss5
E The statistics Of the Society show the
names Of 100 who have enjoyed its advantage
es since its first organization, some of whom
have already entered upon life's work, while
others are pursuing course of study prepar-
atory to professional life.
We congratulate the people of Ringoes and
vicinity on having a school in their midst so
well adapted to furnish that Instruction which
can be attained from home only at great ex-
pense and oftimes at d sacrifice Of those quail
tiles of mind and heart which, most of all,
parents desire retained and strengthened
1t is but just to add that the musical part
Of the programme was rendered by quar-
tette from the immediate vicinity assisted by
a lady from. Ohio, as organist, whose name we
fail to recall OF their success on this occa-
sion, the favorable Judgment of those who are
proficient in the s'divine art" precludes the
possibility Of an opposite opinion from one
not versed in such matters.
I The afternoon being now far spent, the Rev
Mr.. Converse closed the exercises with q few
well timed aud appropriate remarks, aud dis
missed the audience. ~

How 10 keep the poor seems To be the all
absorbing question i, Lanibertville. Numer-
Gus plans have been submitted, none of which
seem very encouraging to the tax payers =
There has been much talk of pool-house
farm, but when we consider the fact that a
State is barely able to support an institution
OF this kind, we are overwhelmed with Won
der and amazement.
Should such an institution b. established it
would soon be noised all over the u. S. and a
class of people would conceive the idea Of be-
coming Changers, and would remove to Lam
bertville, remain there long enough to become
naturalized- hurrah for the farm The
better plan would be to establish a city lann-
dry and other light work for the employment
of the poor women, and instead of contract
ing all the city work, such as building sew
ers, &C., employ men who are dependent up
on the city for bread
Some of the streets might be improved. =
Now would be a good time to do it, aud as
the town is entirely defenseless Qualifications
should be built at the different approaches to
the city. At present, four Modocs with two
rounds of blank cartridges could capture the
town and establish baynnet rule. To be good
to tile poor is the first duty we owe mankind,
but there is generally some who would rather
move than work, mo insinuations whatever.

Pa 1NIALOONS WITH ONE
LEG.

The Philadelphia Times had no
business TO pen the following ideas
Oh the delicate subject of epantaloons
with one leg > When we give vent
to our admiration of the presens
fashion of dross Worn by the fair
sex, VIC wish TO be understood that
orr praises are given solely to ita
beauty, and rot to its convenience.
Aud even our staunch support of
its beauty has its limit. When the
pnElback reaches strictne6s and
severity that interteres with tho
free action of walking, then its
charm begins to decline. The 1.-the
and willow grace of a slender fs.
male form never appears TO great
er advantage than when the folds
the skirt suggest the movements Of
the propclling powers and arv
garment which restricts or impcdes
their free iom is shapen in iniqniiy.
We have recently observed, with
great regret, that the sphere of
woAan's activity is much restricted
by the prevailing mode, and the
tendency seems toward still
greater narrowing OF the field of
energy. The garments are uudenia-
bly, beautiful when the wearcr is in
repose. A well-chosen pose ia
positively statnesque III the severe
and doric simplicity of the drapery.
As a sendentary costume It is also
of unquestioucd mort. When we
remember how much of our youth
was wasted upon the cherries
deserts of crinoline expansion how
AL female symmetry was lost i'll tho
dreary montony Of hoop'skirts of
amhrelia-llke convexitv and stiff
ness how ladies might as well
have been chnrns on rollers so far
as any grace of walking was cons
cerned--whcn we think of these
things our gratitude to the leaders
of the modern fashions knows no
bounds. We hesitate to pen single
word Of insurrect.on against the
best skirt the world ever saw. But
still stern duty compels us to pros
test against those new disabilities
Of woman. She has suffered sutli>
GENTLY from the tyranny of man for
ever so many centuries. Susan b.
Anthony demands for her the ballot
in vain. She is taxed without rep
rcsentation, thing which our fore
fathers never would consent TO-
How can woman keep step in tho
march of improvement ! How can
she stride to that eminence of Dig
nifty which all the advanced think
ers hold to be her destiny How
! can she lift her foot to place it on
the throat of tyranny and say, Sic
Scmper 2 In word, how can she
compete with man, who though of
the Inferior sex, has pantaloons
with taco legs? This is a question
for the solemn consideration of the
wives and daughters of America.

Insurance officers are not the only
men who receive large salaries by
any manner of means. The New York
correspondent says: Away up town
is the superintendent of n large sugar
refinery whose salary is $4,000 per
year. Many years ago he came here
poor German sugar refner, and
worked for days wages. He was fer
tile in genius experimental a great
deal and made valuable discoveries in
the refinery process He was rapidly
promoted in salary and position and
when be received and was about tc
accept salary of $25, 900 from a rival
refinery, he was offered $4,000 to
remain. The offer was so tempting
he could not resist it, and there he
has been for years reaping the reward
of his genius and luck. In the brew
cry interest, recall persons whose
salaries run away up into the thous-
ands. Two managers of large brew
cries in this city are paid $4,000
each, five are paid $4,000 each, and
seven receive $4,000 per year. Man,
of our railroad officials receive prince
ly salaries. Jewett, Receiver of tie
Erie, gets $4,000. Toucey, Super
intendent of the New York Central
and Hudson River Railroad, 1t is said,
receives $4,000; the General Man
ager of :he Pennsylvania Railroad is
credited with receiving $4,000; the
''head man. of the New York and
Boston is paid $4,000. while few
general managers of leading Eastern
roads receive less than $4,000. The
bank presidents receive enormous
sums. At least six receive $4,000
per year each; nine range from $25,,
900, TO $4,000 and number get
from $4,000 to $4,000. The same

that poor siecpers should pass as
many hours of the day as possible
in the sunshine, and few as possible

shut the sunshine ont of their houses

them strength and beauty and

all this, and so get roses and color

weak souls !? The women of Ameri-
ca are pale and delicate. They
may be blooming and strong, and
