A TIME oNoRED SPEcIFIc.-Tbe long and
successful career of DIR. WIsHART's PINE
TREE TAR CORDIAL, as contrasted with the
speedy collapse of nostrums devoid of efficacy
which have from time to time been pulled in
to q brief notoriety during the twenty odd
years that this celebrated medicine has been
sold, affords proof that the American pub
lie continue to repose it confidence in deserv-
ing articles only. The PINE TREE TAR Cor
DIAL has long boon recognized as the leading
specific for Consumption, Bronchitis, Coughs,
Colds, Asthma, Diptheria, and all other dis
eases Of the breathing organs. Il Is, more
over, certain, speedy, and safe botanic
remedy for Dyspepsia Liver Disorders, 6cro-
fulons Affections, Urinary Troubles Gravel,
Dropsy, Debility, Constipation, and Female
Complaints. Constantly accommodating evil
dence of an unimpeachable character estab-
fishes the fact that it not only entirely eradi-
Gates the diseases to which il is adapted, but
also that it's action is remarkably prompt and
thorough. The crucial test of experience has
demonstrated It's reliability in every particu-
lar. Sold by all druggists. Principal depot

POLITICAL REVOLUTION.
The South CaroIina Legislature,

The South CdroNnG LEGISLATURE
A despatch from Columbia, s. c., is as
follows -
0The Legislature assembled to-day. In
the Senate there were ten designations
announced including s. A. Swalls, Presl-
dent pro tenn, who resigned to-day. All
of the resigning members were Repuo-
licans, who have been compelled to this
course in order to escape the fate OF
Smalls and Cardoza or the ten vacan-
cies four have been filed by recent cleo
tions of Democrats. A significant fact in
these elections is that the Democratlc
Senator elected for this county received
1862 out of ,O64 notes.-the Who'll number
polled-against q Republican majority
last year of 2, 800. The Democratic Sen.
ator elect from Charleston is returned on
a vote of / ,566 out of 1851, the whole
number cast. Hayes majority in that
county last year was $500. So complete
ly overwhelming has been the tide Of
public sentiment since the conviction OF
the Ring thieves, that the negroes mani
fest no interest in the election and seem
utterly indifferent to the right for which
they 80 loudly clamored last year, anC
the white vote is not more than one-thiro
of the number heretofore cast.
"The long expected report OF the In.
vestigating Committee will be presented
tomorrow. There is no doubt they viii
declare Senator Patterson guilty OF ths
grossest jobbery and most unblushine
bribery, and recommend that legal pro
cesdings be instituted against him.

JEALOUS OF A BIRD.

A young married lady recently
named her Canary bird after friend
whose first name was Charley. The
other day her husband, who did not
know of this, returned, and as he
went up stairs leading to her room
he was Mortified to hear the wife of
his bosom using such expressions as:
"You are the dearest little fellow /
ever knew Charley "You'rs . nice
old boy, amt you'" "Kiss ne,
Charley" and like endsaring words.
He grasped the bannisters, and with
difficulty, was able to reach the door
and shout "HAdame" His wife
gave . scream, and he started for
the villain, but of course found him
not. The Canary goes by 4 differ
erent name now.

TIE SHIELDS LIBRARY BALL.

The reception given at the Institute
Hall on Wednesday night by the Shields
Library Association. was the largest
that has taken place this season.
Great care had been taken in decora-
ting the room, and as . consequence IL
pressn ed avery handsome appearance In
the center Of the floor the monogram OF
the ASSOCIATION had been drawn in red,
white and blue letters 3oxl4. The stage
upon which was seated the orchestra.
was decorated with the national colors'
and trimed with cedars. Around the room
and suspended from the center OF the
ceiling and stretching TO each OF the
corners was a profusion of bunting.
Each gas jet was trimmed with the colors
of different nations. The walls were also
graced by a number of paintings, and
also frames containing the photographs
Of the members. The grand march took
place about 10 o'clock, and was led BY
Master of ceremonies; ]. II. Mccormick,
accompanied by Miss Mary Burns. They
were followed by seventy>fve other
couples. Dancing continued throughout
the night and broke up at dsylight.

.aCOLOR OF SOUND AND
LIGHT"

At the Franklin Institute, Phila'-
delphia, Tuesday evening, an inter
esting lecture was delivered by Prof.:
Edwin Huston on the "Color OF
sound and light"
The properties of sound and light
as to pitch and color, were shown to
be analogous, high tones correspond
ing to light waves of great rapidlty,
and low tones corresponding to light
waves of less rapidity. A very bril-
livnt spectrum was produced by the
use of the electric light, and its var
ious component tints of color were
described. The cause of color in
bodies was referred to white sub
stances rejecting all the rays nearly
equally. A very beautiful effect
was produced by Illuminating an issu-
ing steam jet by the colors of the
spectrum, and the experiment was
warmly applauded. The effect o.
colors upon each other by mixture
effectively and subjectively,, wa'
shown, and several curious results oi
color modification shown. BY illum-
mating series of colored objects by
a light of one color, singular changes
in the tint seen were produced show
ing that much depends on the purity
and ightness of the illumination.

LAST DEMOCRATIC VICTORY

The last Democratic victory in
the Senate, before that of last We'd
nesday and yesterday, was March
Sd, 1861, aud curiously enough, was
on motion to 60 into executive ses-
sion John G. Breckenridge was Vice
President. The only Senator who
voted then and also voted on We'd
nesday was Mr.. Anthony, of Rhode
Island. Mr.. Hamlin (now a Senator)
had been q member of that Congress,
but resigned in January, and Lot
NJ. Morrill, took his place. All the
"war horses" on both sides, then vot-
ing, are dead or in private life. The
list of dead Senators is long one,
and embraces some very notable
names Charles Sumner, W. P.
Fessenden, j. p. Hale, Solomon
Foot, Jacob Collamer, Henery Will

James NJ. Mason; Andrew johnson,

THE FISHERY AWARD.

Canada's bluff game, won before
the Fishery Commission at Halifax,
is good imitation of that played by
the United States at Geneva. Her
lawyers, lik ours in the Alabama ar
bitration, made enormous claims for
damages, with no idea eff fgaining them,
but to get something which, while
small in comparison with the vast sum
asked for, would still be substantial.
We took $15,000,000 out of Great
Britain, and were more than satisfied.
Canada has been even more fortunate
in the award at Halifax the proper
ton between the allowance made and
the compensation sought being far
greater than in the Alabama business.
The Canadian lawyers have estated
the annual value of the fisheries to
the United States at 81 100000 to
100000. For the twelve years
for which payment is required the
total amount would have been from
$4,000 600 to nearly $4,000, 900.
They evidently had in mind a arecoup-
ing of the Alabama money in making
out the bills. Now the Commission
(the United States member dissent
ing) has decided on S., 100000 as the
proper sum to indemnify Canada for
her lost mackerel and Goldfish. The
American shippers estimate their
privileges on the Canadian coast to
be fairly worth not over $500 q
year, or total of 100000 for the
period in controversy. We congrat-
ulate Canada ON her good fortune.
The United States will checrfully
pay the bill and feel no grudgss over
it. Both countries would be benefit
ted by this amicAble settlement il
it would put them in the humor to
make a new reciprocity treaty. By
the way, if there Is no better use for
the unappropriated balance of the
Alabama fund, why not apply it to-
ward paying this award ~ Y.

HOW THE KINDERGARTEN
Is TAKING ROOT IN
ST. LOUIS.

Kindergartens in St. Louis seem
to have found congcnial soil. They
have thriven and multiplied in the
four years since the first was opened
by the enthusiastic Miss Blow. In
1874, the second year. two new
kindergartens were established the
next year nine more, and the next
IA more, or 26 in all, in which over
1900 young children are enjoying
the developing freedom of the new
system. Each of these schools is in
charge of a woman teacher, who has
oversight of from four to six volun-
teer assistants, who are receiving in
struction in kindergarten methods of
teaching.
The 26 "gardens" are connected
with 13 schools. and hold sessions
half in the forenoon and halfin the
afternoon. Tuition costs nothing,
but parents of children who have the
means pay dollar a quarter for the
use of the material. The assistants,
after one year of teaching, receive a
apractical diploma, "and after two
years "theoretical diploma" if, in
the opinion of the teachers, they arr
worthy of it. One hundred ant
twenty-seyen pupils are now in the
training class. The system is popu
lar among the people.

We republish from the New York Sun
of yesterday an extract from the forth
coming message of President Hayes, set
ting forth his views upon the currency.
As is plainly limited, it was obtained from
. proof-slip given out sarreptitously, and
most probably for q good, round consid-
Grafton. 1t may be that Mr.. Hayes be-
comes more explicit further on, bu, judg-
ing from the portion made public, he is SO
fearful of offending popular prejudices
that he hides his real opinions behind
clouds of verbiage and unmeaning plati-
tudes. 1t, however, appears that in q
general way he favors speedy resump-
ton of specie payments and silver re-
monetization.-B Bait. Gazette.
1t is predicted that the Presidents
forthcoming message will take the ground
that circustances heve brought us fortu-
nately to the verge of resumption, and
that "no measures are advisable which
would hinder the return to specie pay
ments; that the prosperity of the country
depends on this, and that no obstacle
ought to be put in the way of a revival
of enterprise and return of public conf
dence."
Associate Justice Wright, of the Su-
preme Bench of South Carolina, has re-
signed. Justice Wright was the negro
who was bulldozed by the carpet Dagger;
to decide the Hampton contest in favor OF
the carpet-baggers last spring, and whose
drunken habits were subsequently made
the subject of legislative inquiry. He
has resigned just in time to escape i'm
parchment and draw his salary.
There is talk at Washington of an ALI
ance of certain democrats with tn,
Conkling wing of the Senate to secur,
the defeat of the New York appointments
We hope it is mere rumor. No demo
cratic senator can combine with the sen
ztor from New York to help him ven
his spleen upon the administration with
out a loss of dignity, if not actually com
promising the honor of his party.
1t is said that Hon. Alexander Fl
Stephens proposes to introduce into the
House a proposition to improve parlia
mentary rules by the adoption of rul,
of order known as "the question" who's,
function is to be to make an immediat,
vote necessary upon the pending ques
tion.

The .Asbury Pdstorate.-At q recent
meeting of the Stewards of Asbury al, K.
Church, it was unanimously agreed to
tender Rev. John A. Roach, ID. D., OF
Brooklyn, call to the pastorate OF the
church. at further meeting, composed
OF the entire Official Beard OF the church
held last Tuesday evening, the Stewards
were directed to tender the call to Mr..
Roach, by an almost unanimous vote,
only one person voting in the negative.
1t is supposed that Mr.. Roach will accept
the call, and arrangements will be made
for his transfer to the Wilmington Com
ference and his appointment 10 Asbury at

Mr.. Roach, it will be remembered, was
pastor of Asbury in 1872.

THE TICKET.

The W ood County Republican Conven-
tion, held at Bowling Green on Saturday,
was probably the largest ever held in the
county. In fact, ii is growing to unwieldy
proportions, and ii a better plan is not adopt
ed it will soon require one and u half or two
days TO transact the business Notwith-
standing the laborcd efforts of the Sentinel
for two or three weeks to produce strife,
totally uncalled for, everything passed off
hnrmoniously and friendly. For some
Offices, mems names we're put before the
Convention without their knowledge or
consent, and the tabular statement of the
votes, elsewhere given, shows that they had
some friends present from different parts
of the county, whether they were there
themselves or not. Others who entered the
field prior to the Convention have occasion
10 feel proud of their friends that were
there. They we're 'stayers.' The Conven-
tion had good material and plenty of it
to select ticket from, and its choice was
quite as satisfactory to the ma njority OF the
people as any that could have heen made
Therefore, 1t is with pleasure that we place
the ticket at the head of our columns with
the hope of its full and hearty endorsement
at the polls by such majority as the Re-
publIcans of old Wood county is in the
habit OF giving. Our time aud space will
not admit OF an Introduction of the nom
inees this week, but we will do 30 in our
next issue.
