Growing thinner Every Day F.!

The man who has seated cough seems
to grow thinner every day. His complex
ion changes, there is a quaking jelly
tremble in his muscles, the mouth loses its
firm expression, and the least extraordina-
ry exertion causes futtering about his
heart. AS he is racked by the cough, the
respiratory glands are opened and clam
my sweat exudes upon his linen, which in
turn exposeshim to new colds, new coughs,
new decay of muscular tissue, until the
work of destruction is complete and man is
carried to his untimely grave. But there

Wild Cherry has, in thousands of just
such cases, removed the agony of the
cough, and its cause, without destroying
the tone of the stomach, and the waste of
the tissues ceasing, nature has been ena-
bled to do its healthful work. New spirits
and energy have been infused into the suf-

Duel between a Baptist Minister and his
Son-ln-Law.

A duel between Baptist minister and
his son.in-law, politician, at ten PAGES,
was recently fought in Western North Oar
olina. AS the painful story is told in a
special dispatch from Charlotte to the Gin
cinnati Enquirer, Major Andrew Scrog-
gins, while in passion stripped and whip
ped his wife's sister, the youngest daugh-
ter of the Rev. DIR. Wade Hill. AS soon
as the father heard of the affair, he went
to his son-in-law and demanded an expla-
nation. Major Scroggns said he had
acted on an impulse of the moment. DIR.
Hill replied that he had no right to punish
the child. From words they went to
blows, and the minister had the best of it.
Major Scroggins went home, and after
consulting with his friends, sent a chal
lenge to the minister. This was immedi-
ately declined. The son-in-law armed
himself to the teeth, and threatened to
kill the parson at sight and the latter
also bought a revolver. One day they
CHANGED to meet ON horseback in the road
near the minister's house.
"AhaP" cried the major "Iv'e got you
now f! Ten minutes to say your prayers"
"Well, sir, rm ready" responded DR..
Hill.
"And 80 am l, " said the major. "May
the Lord have mercy on us both"
Thereupon he fired twice, neither shot
taking effect. The doctor then returned
the fire, and killed his antagonist instant
ly. He then rode home, told the awful
news and surrendered himself to the
village authorities.

Struggle with a Bass.

The Norwich, Conn.,, "Buletin" tells a
story of remarkable struggle with giant
bass, caught in a seine at Mantle. One
escaped by breaking the meshes. A second
they got upon the beach. They had hard
ly dropped the cords before he broke from
the meshes, and, springing high in the air,
plunged down the shore towards the sea,
ten or twelve feet away. The men dashed
excitedly after him, and vainly sought to
stop him with desperate kicks from their
heavy fishing boots, and blows from such
implements as they could pick up on the
beach.
No one dared to grasp the monster, as
bass of large size, armed with it's sharp
fins and razor-like teeth and gills, is one of
the fiercest and most dangerous of sea fish.
The shoal water was already reached, and
the bass was splashing furiously in the des-
perate endeavor to gain water that would
float him. An instant more and the prize
would be lost. At this moment Mr.. Win
ship fearlessly threw himself on the strug-
Cling monster, clasping his arms around his
neck, with one foot under its body, and
shouted for help.
The struggles Of the fish and it's captor
had carried them into the deep water, but
the stout arms of the other fisherman were
quick to the rescue, and in an instant both
man and bass were rolled deftly up the
shore, and the bass was secured. The
whole party, at the end of the struggle,
were breathless with exhaustion, but had
escaped with scarcely wound. The
monster weighed 464 pounds.

eB Quite an excitement was created at
Readville, Mass, by the mysterious sick
ness of the operatives in curled hair
factory two years ago, when three persons
are said to have died from painful dis
ease, thought to be blood poisoning, from
the hair of diseased animals, principally
Siberian horses, many of which die from a
peculiar malady. A few days ago another
operative died and another now lies danger
ously sick, both evidently cases of the dis
eases of two years ago.

Mr.. EDITOR ;--Frenchtown is much given
to undue excitement at the present time. The
contest between rum or no rum was the first
event that interested the Christian man and
woman at the beginning of the year, and re-
suited in one majority in favor of sin and Sa-
1878, an event long to be remembered, and,
more recently, the Court has decided that the
double ballot should be counted for Nathan
Sburts for Mayor, making tie with Adam S.
Haring, and Mr.. Haring's seat was declared
vacant on last Saturday week, and new
outline of the desperate battle that is now rag
ing with great fury over the Mayorality is
simply narrowed down to rum or no rum, for
or against purchasing steamer. So, you
see, Mr.. Editor, that fire and water are the
great elements You may look for terrible
conflict. But the best thing is to hear the cleo
pioneering. The "tails'' of the town say
they have been both whiskey and temperance
men. They have signed more license petit
ions, and influenced more votes, and spent
more money, gone greater distances, done
more dirty work, and, to tell Gods truth, had
drank more whiskey, while the steamer party
say that boarding house on large scale
would be safe investment, as all who visit
us during the Summer express themselves in
the highest terms of admiration for places
free from the perfumes of the inclinated.-
Mr.. Haring is a man of heightened sense of
honor, stern integrity, tender and generous
impulses, and a firm, tried and true friend Of
temperance. He will be supported by tbs
earnest and consistent friends of law and or

Why is it that our County Republican
Committee make it practice to call the con-
vention after the Democratic caucus? ? The
takes of the Democracy, but we have seen
no good evidence that they have ever done
so. On the contrary, the attempts to make
nominations solely with policy" view
have proved failures in every instance,
while the bargaining and trading business
has neither gained votes or credit for the
party. The only fair and square way to do
is to nominate full ticket of the best men
in the party without any reference to what
kind of nominees or whom the Democracy
may select.

Rector.

Last Saturday afternoon, Co. c., N. G..
s. N. j., of this city, had their annual target
shooting. The company mustered thirty
eight members, two officers and three must
clans. The grounds selected for the target
practice were above Alexsauken bridge. Ad-
jutant vanSciver, Mayor Skillman, and Geo.
c. Naylor, were the judges. The distance
was 200 yards-a great stretch beyond the
usual shooting distance of the company, which
eretofore has been so yards. The prizes for
shooting were awarded as follows: Private
Elisha Reading, first prize. one ton of coal.
Private Thomas Stockton, second prize, 100
TBS of flour. Lieut.. D. s. Williams, third
prize, ham. Private James X. Brewster,
poorest shot, one yard of sausage.
After the close of the shooting, the COM
pany marched down Main street, on which an
exhibition of the /" skirmish drip was given,
and attracted considerable attention from its
novelty.
