From John Flagg, ESQ., OF Bennington, n. II.
sThree years since was very much reduced

various remedies, to no purpose, made use OF

A DIFFICULT DRILL. the West
Point military school the cadets are
taught to ride bareback, to ride without
stirrups, to Jump hurdles, to use the
pistol and saber while riding, to ''cut
heads to the right and Left and other
feats. The ''heads" are leather balls
about four or five inches in diameter,
which are placed on posts of various
heights. The trooper moving at a
rapid gallop must cut these heads rid
ing to the right and left, and also cut
heads resting on the ground, the last q
rather difficult feat when done to the
left, compelling the rider to swing the
saber over his bride hand and reach
down from horse sixteen hands high.
They also cut heads with the right and
left cut at the instant of jumping q
hurdle. The most skillful maneuver is
the cutting of head upon the ground
between two hurdles placed about forty
feet apart, the trooper riding at full
speed and cutting to the right and left
in the interval between leaping the hur-
dies. The trooper is also taught to
turn his horse at full gallop in a circle
four yards in diameter. Most of these
feats are performed in the riding hall, a
room about 40 feetlong by sixty-eight
wide, with tan bark floor. The parade
ground is about $50 yards long by 80 in
width. Seventy-five horses are kept in
use, the stables accommodating about
100. The animals are cared for bya de-
tachment of regular soldiers provided
for such service, the cadets being too
busy to perform this duty.

THOUSANDS OF AFFIDAvITs.

Many having used "patent" and pre-
pared medicines and failed in finding the
relief promised, are thereby prejudiced
against all medicines. Is this right ?
Would you condemn all physicians be-
cause. one failed in giving the relief
promised Some go to California in
search of gold, and after working hard
for months and finding none, return
home and say there is no gold there.
Does that prove it? Many suffering
with Catarrh and pulmonary affections
have used the worthless preparations that
crowd the market, and in their disap-
pointment say there is no cure for Ca
tarrh. Does that prove it? Does it not
rather prove that they have failed to en-
ploy the proper remedy? There are
thousands Of people in the United States
who can make an affidavit that DIR. Sage's
Catarrh Remedy and Or. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery have effected their
entire cure. Many had lost all sense of
smell for months, and pieces of bone had
repeatedly been removed from the nasal

THEIR TEMPORIZING
OR FEDERAL IN
TERFERENCE.

CHARLESTON, S. G. March 23.-The
feelingis general here that Gov. Hamp-
ton ought not to go to Washington at the
bidding of President Hayes. That his
right and duty to hold the office to which
majority of the people elected him are
matters over which the federal adminis-
tration can exercise no justifiable control
and that President Hayes must make his
choice between fulfilling his pledgers to
restore self-government. peace and pros
perity to South Carolina by the cessation
OF military interference in her affairs, or
else establish at once military govern
ment throughout the State. ANY kind
olcompromise Oh with the thieving crew of
carpetbaggers is regarded as dishonor-
aoie and ruinous, and may be set down
as out ofthe question. Your correspond
ent has conversed this evening with a
score OF leading citizens, and finds no dis
sent from this view. Telegrams from
Columbia represent the same feeling pre-
vailing there. Gov. Hampton declines
70 express him self before receiving the
residents letter officially, but it is con-
sidered certain that he will decline the
invitation to Washington. The News
ana Courier will tomorrow strongly urge
him to remained at his post. Chamber
IAN expresses himself as pleased at the
