RECEIPTS AND EXPEND 1TUREs.
The average annual receipts from taxation
for The last eight fiscal years have been 81
4O1,726.l9. The receipts from the same
source for the fiscal year 1S7C-'7 were 81
5O5.3S7.17. Though above the average, this
amount is less than the receipts for the next
preceding year by S173,952.47. The reduc-
lion is due to the difficulties which were
encountered in changing from one system
OF liquor taxation to another-thc taxes inn
posed upon consumption by the new law
having been wholly suspended for con-
siderable period by the Injunction of Fed
cral court, while the same law very greatly
reduced the taxation Of wholesale dealers.
The loss to the revenue from these sources
during the last fiscal year was not less than
100000.
The disbursements OF the revenues from
taxation during the last fiscal year were as

Nearly century ago there lived in the
town OF Charlottesville young man who
played prominent part In society circles.
lie was an accomplished dancer, dressed
ID fashionable style, and was the central
fgure at balls and parties. Upon one of
these festive occasions wag, who was
present, attached bundle of rags to the
coat-tail OF the youth and with this absurd
appendage to his otherwise faultless ap-
parel he went through the maze of the
dance with the beautiful bellies OF the day.
When he discovered the trick that had
been played upon him the young man was
so deeply mortified that he ever afterward
eschewed society, and lived the life Of a
hermit. Abandoning the gay world, he
betook himself to small building which
stood on the site OF the present residence
OF Mr.. James Dolin, and commenced the
sale of whisky. The door of his den was
fastened with log chain, and was never
opened wider than was necessary to ad-
init the quart bottle of thirsty customer.
AT first he bought the liquor by the jug
and retalled ii by the pint, but as busi-
ness grew brisk he purchased barrel,
and finally, when the price of whisky got
down to 20 cents per gallon, he was ena-
bled by his rapid accnmulations to fill his
cellar He lived thus for many years,
never leaving the premises in day light ex-
cept at the May term of the county court,
when he would emerge from his den
clothed in a drab swallow-tailed coat,
reaching nearly to the ground, and pair
of leather breeches. walk to the court
house, procure his license, and return to
his hole. After night he would visit a
pump near the courthouse, and some peo-
pie said that on dark nights he would ex-
tend his walks into the country.
About 40 years ago, one rainy morning
when customer knocked at the door OF
this singular individual, then an old man,
there was no response. The door was
forced open and the solitary occupant was
found to be dead. A committee of .citi-
zens was appointed to examine the prem
ses. The cellar was found well stored
with liquor mellowed by age, and beneath
the ground, buried in earthern crooks,
Sc 600 in specie were brought to the sur
| face. Probably, with prophetic vision
of broken Charlottesville banks, he was
| hard-money man in the strictest sense OF
the words. A log of wood. upon which
the head of the miser rested, and blank
ct, covering his stiffened limbs, constituted
the furniture OF the miser's home. His
only ledger was slate, upon which was
found a statement of the amount of cash
on hand, which tailed with the contents
of the earthern jars. The name of this
old man was John Yeargen. There are
many of our citizens who remember him
well, and whose mouths water when they
think of the superior liquid refreshments
purchased at 81 gallon through the crack
felt bells to ring in Jonny Yeargen's day.

Centaur
LiniinlentS.

One thing is now thoroughly established. Never
since man suffered and human agencies ale yiated
pain, has there been any thing which went SO lar
as pain annihilator and curative agent as the
Ccntaur Ltniments. These Lniments have within
the past year cured more cases of Rheumatism
Neuralgia, Stiff joints, Caked Breasts, Swellings,
Poisonous Bites Burns, Lame Animals, ETC., ETC.,
than all other remedies combined. AS The name
OF Centaur implies half horse and hall man, the
Centaur Liniments are for man and beast. But
not the same Lniment. The White Luiment is
for man and the Yellow for horses and animals
Herein this Lnment differs from all other rene.
dies, although some Of the ingredients are alike in
each. They contain the well known Witch Hazel
Arnca, Carbolic, Rock Oil, Mcntha and other
powerful ingredients.
VIM. u. iiickcox, Rector OF St. Johns K. Church
Wakeneld, Clay Co., Kansas, writes: Many years
| have been suffering from a Weak Back, caused
from sprain more than 40 years ago. have not
found anything 10 relieve me until | commenced
the use OF Centaur Linlment. | ieel it my Chris
tan duty TO inform you that by its wonderful effects
am entirely relieved OF pain. January I'D, 1892
Messrs. j. Mcclure Il Co., Druggists, Cincinnati
o., say:
"reamsters pronounce the Yellow Centaur Lini.
ment superior to anything they have ever used.
We sell several dozen bottles per month, and the
sale is steadily increasing"
These are only samples of thousands upon
thousands of similar testimonials reaching every
month. All the Extracts, Embrocatons, Salves
and Ointmcnts in existence are not doing ono tenth
the good which is done by these admirable Centaur
Liniments. For Frostbites Stings Cuts, Itch, Salt
Rheum, etc., there is nothing like the Centaur
Linlment White Wrapper. For SPAWN, Ring. bone.
Sweeney, Wind Calls, Pol-evil. Scratches, ETC., on
horses, the Yellow Centaur Llnment is equally
good. They are certain in their effects they are

No family should be without CentAur Linments.
Tney are worth one hundred times their cost.
