A Cincinnati telegram dated the Sd

r. M. Bishop s. Co., at the head of
which is Governor Bishop, suspended

settlement. The heaviest creditors

The centractors on the new build

Printing pay labOrers seventy-five
cents . day for their work. That looks
q little like getting down to hard-psn.
But the bullionists think it quite
enough for the toilers in these piping
times of peace, though Congressman
and public functi0naries continue to
receiye the same liberal allowance
given them in the midst of the war
under an inflated currency. If we
must come down to "bed.rock" it

than just that those in high places
should bear their share of the losses

civil Service Reform,

Secretary Sherman has dismissod .
number OF clerks for talking against
assessments, and has issued . circular
setting forth that is an offensive act In
one clerk to attempt to inflame anoth-
er in his department not to pay assess-
ments. Money is an indispensable el.

howl about the helpless orphans of
our dead soldiers being driven from
the Soldiers' Home by the O'Connor
law. The Zanesville Signal has taken
pains to Investigate the matter and
states upon authority, that "n0t one
child has been expelled; nor one will
be; nor does the law of last winter
require that any shall be. On the con-
trary twenty-seven new inmates were
admitted at the last meeting of the
Board, and there are enough soldiers
orphans not yet admitted and who
come under the requirements of the
amended law, to keep the institution

cal capital ont of the affairs of the

of the inmates" ifFl

A very definite case is described in our

announced determination OF securing, as
far as lies in his power that every citizen

exercise of all bis rights and privileges

from an assault made upon him because
he undertook, in pursuance of the law of
the United States, to perform his duty
and watch the count of the ballots in
that town at the recent election HIS
assailants enjoy their full liberty. Now,
what the people oi the North would like
to see settled is whether the National
Government has any authority or power
to protect its officers in the performance
of their duty on the soil Of couciliatrd
Southern State Ii 1T has no such power,
they would like to know why, and, if the
case is fairly determined, we venture to
say that they will find some means of
supplying the omission. The only way of
determining the case is for the President
promptly and firmly to exhaust all the
power which he possesses, whether by
civil process or by the employment of
the much abused but often very useful
"bayonet" If he will do that, the people
will attend to whatever more it is found
necessary to do N. Y. Times.

Attention was called some time since
in one of our city dallies to the fact that
the boys of this age are growing effemi
nate and without muscle, and it was said
that instead of rushing from the school
room to the play ground as of old, they
could be found standing around the cor
ners of the public school buildings, hands
in pockets, smoking cigaretts, etc We
think the subject worthy of attention.
In passing through the city we see about
one in ten between the ages of fifteen and
twenty with the glow of health and real
muscular development. Our boys shiver
for want of vitality and nerve force. Va
rious forms of modern dissipation are
developing generation of shivering,
sickly, silly boy babies, who have no more
decision of character or will than child
in swaddling clothes. In the days of our
boy hood it took, on the average, one un-
bleached shirt per week to stand the
wear and tear. 1t was our common prac
tice to go home at night with not more
than one whole shirt-sleeve. The other
was contributed to the playground. 1t
was hard on the mothers in those days
to keep boys clothed but it is harder on
mothers now to see their sons without
muscle and without manhood With
this species of development comes the
cry of hard times The trouble is not
hard times, but bad nerve force. Boys
in the olden time could swing the axe,
husk the corn, draw saw-logs, and keep
the whole neighborhood in gossip; now.

Such boys never make men.

MEXICAN
Mustang Liniment,
FOR MAN AND BEAST.

This liniment very naturally originated in Ameri-
ca where Nature provides in her laboratory such
surprising antidotes for the maladies of her chill
dren. Its fame has been spreading for 30 years,
until it encircles the habtable globe.
The Mexican Mustang Liniment is a matchless
remedy for all external ailments of man and beast.
To stock owners and farmers it is invaluable
A single bottle often human life or re-
stores the usefulness OF an excellent horse. OK,
COW, or sheep.
1t cures foot-rot, hoofail, hollow horn, grub,
screw-worm shoulder-rot, mango, the bites and
stings of poisonous reptiles and insects, and every
such drawback to stock breeding and bush life
1t cures every external trouble of horses, such
as lameness, scratches, swinny. sprains, founder
wind-gall ring bone, =. etc.
The Mexican Mustang Liniment Is the quickest
cure in the world for accidents occurring in the
family in the absence of physician, such as
burns, scalds, sprains, cuts, etc. and for rheuma-
tism, and stiffness engendered by exposure. Par
ticularly valuable to Miners.
1t is the cheapest remedy in the world, for 1t
penetratcs the muscle to the bone, and a singie
application is generally sufficient to cure.
Mexican Mustang Liniment is put up in three
sizes of bottles the larger ones being proportion
atey much the cheapest. Sold everywhere.

The End.

The course of the weariest river
Ends in the great gray sea-
The acorn, for ever aud ever
Strives upward to the tree.
The rain bow, the sky ndorning,
Shines prO'''iSe through the storm,
The glimmer of coming morning
Through midnight gloom will form,
By time all knots are riven,
Com pleX although they be,
And peace will at last be given,
Dear, both to you and to me.
Then, though the path may be dreary,
Look onward to The goal;
Though the heart and The head be weary,
Let faith inspire the soul.
Seek the right, though the wrong be tempting !;
Speak truth at any cost
Vain is all weak exempting
When once the gem is lost.
Let strong hand and keen eye be ready
For plain and ambushed foes;
Thought earnest and fancy steady
Bear best unto the close.
The heavy clouds may he raining,
But with evening comes the light;
Through the dark are low winds complaining,
Yet the ~unris'' g Ids the height
And Love has his hidden treasure
r the patient and the pure;
And Time gives his fullest measure
To the workers who endure;
And the Word that no law has shaken
Has the future pledge supplied;
For we know that when we ''awaken'
We shall be satisfied"
