We clip the following from the Geneva
IN. " Gazette, knowing that it will be read
with great pleasure by The subscribers to the
INTELLIGENCE, as the gentleman of whom
it speaks has very many friends in this
County, who are always pleased to hear the
compliments which are paid to him:
Hon. B. F. Crayton, of Anderson, South
Carolina, has been visiting in Geneva, q
welcome guest at the home of John B.
Dixon. His reception among our people
has been most cordial. His State could not
have better representative among US, as
he is we'll advised on all branches of indus
try-in farming, mechanics, on fruits and
flowers, grain and stock raising, &c. Two
days this week he has been in attendance at
the State Fair at Rochester, a guest of the
President and Executive Committee of the
Society through introduction by ex-Presi-
dent James 0. Sheldon and Mr.. Robert. J.
Swan. He minutely examined every article
coming under his immediate observation,
spending hours among the live stock, in the
fruit and grain departments, and the floral
exhibitions. The show is a very fine one,
which Mr.. Crayton fully appreciated. He
will probably return to his Southern home
early next week; we hope to see him often
among US.

The reputation it has attained, in
consequence of the marvellous cures IL
has produced during the last half cen
tury, is sufficient assurance to the
public that it will continue to realize
the happiest results that can be desired.
In almost every section OF country
there are persons, publicly known, who
have been restored from alarming and
even desperate diseases Of the lungs,
by its use. All who have tried 1t ac-
knowledge its superiority; ana Where
its virtues are known, no one hesitates
as to what medicine to employ to re-
lieve the distress and suffering peculiar
to pulmonary affections CHERRY Pee
ToRAL always affords instant relief, and
performs rapid cures Of the milder va
rieties Of bronchial disorder, as well as
the more formidable diseases Of the

As safeguard to children, amid
the distressing diseases which beset
the Throat and Chest of Childhood, it
is invaluable; for, by its timely use,
multitudes are rescued and restored to
health. 1, ..G
This medicine gains friends at
every trial, as the cures il Is constantly

THE COMING COUP D,Erar.

Every one says, and many believe. that
the present conflict between the military
President of the French Republic and the
National Assembly of France, must end in
coup d etdf under the firm hand and iron
will of the military chieftain, who labors
under the suspicion of being more of a
Bonapartist than OF an 0rleanist or Bour-
bon, but, above all, of desiring to continue
in office, not merely until the close of his
seven years term, in November. 1850. when

but for the rest of his life. He
too, may wish TO found his
dynasty, but his eldest son, now lieutenant
in the regular army of France, will not be
twenty years old until 1850, and has given
no signs OF talent in any line The day of
the general elections in France is not vet
fixed, but it is understood thatIt will be the
18th of October. II the result be against

TURKEY AND srEH NE,TEALs.

The New York Times publishes an inter
esting account regarding Turkey and her
situation, in reference both 10 the powers
who are friendly and those who are hostile
on the one hand, and those who are stand
ing upon neutral ground. Turkey Is en-
comprised by three neutrals-Persia on the
east, Servia on the west, and Greece On the
south-all ostensibiy at peace with her, but
all, in reality, much more armed than
neutral" The Shah's dread OF England
and Scrvia's dread OF Austria have hither-
to kept both from openly siding with Rus
STA; but they have done what they could.
Persia can furnish secret supplies to the
Russian troops in Armenia, and shut
her eyes while they traverse a corner OF her
territory to fall upon Muhktar Pasha's
| right flank. Servia can keep her 10000
soldiers in readiness 10 strike for the Gar
on the first chance Of doing so with impun'
ity The potential force Of Greece is more
formidable still. The character OF hei
neutrality sufficiently shows itself in the
recent equipment OF armed cruisers, the
march OF volunteers TO the border, tho mo-
bilization of I5,GO0 men, and the war agi
tation which is shaking every street o.
| Athens, from the Marathon Gate 10 tn,

j. ". GOLDEN. ESQ.

Some one has called our attention 10 the
fact that J. w. Golden, an old sheriff of
Leavenworth county, is now 4 candidate for
the same Office in Labette county. We
had lost trace of him for several wears, but
shall ever hold him in kindly remembrance
Golden, in 1854, came 10 Kansas from Penn
sylvania, and took claim near where the
city now stands. Being IN active and out
spoken Free-State man, he was soon marked
Tor the vengeance of Border Rufiians, and
during one OF their forays from Missouri,
he was taken prisoner, while attempting TO
escape 10 Lawrence. Led out, with two
others, the three were shot and left for dead
on the prairie, about half way between the
two cities. Golden recovered sufficiently TO
drag himself 10 Lawrence, where medical
aid restored him, after long suffering, TO
comparative health. With true grit. he
same back TO the scene of his troubles, and
during the long, dark years that followed,
bore an important part in making Kansas
free. The people gave him the Office of
sheriff, which he filled faithfully and hon
orabb.
Honest, brave, steady, true-hearted Col
den, We wish you success; and we here say
to the people of Labctte, if you value these
qualities in an officer, You will not slight
the man, who under such a test. has been
found their possessor.

courtesy they would themselves have right

WHAT DOES III MEAN

Mr.. Girard, Of this city, insured his life
in the "North Western Life Insurance Com
pany,' of Milwaukee, for 81 900 ON the ten
year endowment plan, and after making
fourteen annual paym nts he found out that
the agent misrepresented the company's way
OF doing business in fact he was laboring
under the delusion that he was insured in
an honest company therefore he ceased
paying.
Now, this same policy in fair settlement
would be worth 500 in six years from the
time he ceased paying; and calculating the
then cash value OF $500, six years on the
company's assumed rate of interest, four per
cent, the policy was worth S3l6.12, and for
this the company allowed him the very
modest sum Of 800 and promised to allow
him more if he would apply the whole
amount in a new policy, but fortunately he
had an idea what that meant, and refused
to give them another chance at him. 1t
seems that almost every person who has
been unfortunate enough to take insurance
in this same "North Western Lifelnsurance
Company has been defrauded in some
manner, whether by the agents themselves
or by orders from the home Office of the
company, We don't know, but We do know
that the public are interested in knowing
how such companies deal with their MEM
hers, and should be notified OF their prac

that We can hear nothing OF them in the ada

may occasionally settle TO the ground DUR

new their long fight, that beatiiic voyage in
which they lazily and dreamily float far

earthly victims and foes through the Elsyian
fields OF the upper air, till in a delirium of
love and happiness they sink to the earth TO
