words FitIY Spoken.

Hon. John K. Luttrell, of Cali
fornia, made a short but most sens
ible speech upon the bill to amend
the laws relating to Internal Reve-
nue., from which we make the fol-
lowing extracts:
do not believe that it is right to
burden the farmer with special tax
upon his cereals, fruits, tobacco, or
anything which he produces or
grows from the soil. l do not be-
lieve that it is right to tax the pro-
auctions of hemp in Missouri or
wheat or corn in Illinois or Michi-
gan. Nor do | believe that it is
right to tax the cotton produced in
Mississippi or the sugar of LOuisi-
ana. | am opposed to taxing the
wines of California or the tobacco of
Virginia or Maryland. l am OPP
posed to taxing the growing crops
of the farmer. You have no more
right to tax the production of tObac-
co than you have that of wheat,
corn, or anything else produced by
the farmer.
Levy no special tax upon the pro-
Queer, no special tax upon the hand
iwOrk Of our mechanics and artisans.
Abolish all special taxes. Tax every
man for just what he is worth, and
no more. Restore to the country
the good old times Of equal taxation
to all, as it was under Jackson,
Polk, Pierce and other patriots, that
the people may be relieved of all
special impositiOns.
believe our present system of
taxation is a disgrace to our institu-
tions. We should protect the farm
ing interests of our country. Instead
of levying special taxes on produc-
ers, we should encourage our farm
ers to produce all that the earth is
capable of producing. We should
tax no production of our country.
| am opposed to levying a special
tax upon anything that is the pro-
duct of our soil or the handiwOrk of
our mechanic or artisan.

Our attention has been called to
a new article for the use of ladies,
the invention of which has confer
red an everlasting blessing upon
every lady. We refer to the Queen
City skirt suspenders for supporting
ladies' skirts, the most desirable and
beneficial article ever invented for
the relief of women, many of whom
have suffered years of miserable
health caused solely by carrying the
weight of a number of heavy skirts,
completely dragging them down.
Something to support ladies' cloth
ing is absolutely necessary. These
suspenders are recommended by
our leading physicians to all ladies
and young girls. Every lady should
have Them. They are sold only
through lady agents. A splendid
opportunity is offered to some re-
liable lady canvasser of this county
to secure the agency of a pleasant
and profitable business. For terms
and territory write at once to the

Col. Forney's Paris Letter in the Philadel-
phia Press.

Col. Forney's Paris Letter in the Philadel-
phia Press.
The secret of the reserved wealth
of the French-their elasticity after
disaster-are their habits of ecOno-
my, their excellence as cooks, their
Temperance and their family attach
ments. They are impulsive and
violent, but their revolutions are
like thunder-stOrms, useful to clear
the atmosphere of bad elements, and
generally followed by moderation
under whatever regime. They are
the paradox of nations. They live
among themselves and upon strang
ers at the same time, and there is no
other case in which a people gets so
much money from other people and
give so little money in return.
They, however, give music, plays,
manners, books and costumes freely
to others, but they remain the same.
They are always individual They
initiate nobody except to make
somebody ridiculous. A French
man is never laturalized to another
country. If he goes to America his
traits run through generations.

Sol. ,snnite's Curse.

Sol. Smiths brother Lemuel, a
young actor, was killed in Augusta,
Ga. His murdurer, Flournoy, was
acquitted by the jury on the plea
that the killing might be classed as
the result of a duel. After hearing
the verdict, Sol. Smith said to the
homicide:
Before God and man / charge
you with the murder of my brother
The sleep of the innocent will never
more be yours. You are murder
er, and will ever more carry the
mark of homicide upon your brow.
From this time forth in this world
you will never sleep again."
Two years later Sol. was accosted
by an abject looking wretch, who
stood before him in an attitude
of supplication. 1t was VIM. Flour
poy.
"Why do you follow me?" said
Because I want you oshoot me

keeping Good Men i'm office.

A correspondent of the Washing
ton Sunday Chronicle says:
Hon. Jere n. Williams, of Ala
bama, may be recorded as one of the
strongest Southern leaders in Con-
gress, though by no means as snowy
as many others. There is an old
adage to the effect that "still waters
run Deep" and it is often exempli-
fed among our national speech
makers. General Williams is about
forty-five years of age, and is serv-
ing his second term in Congress.
His constituency have determined
to return him to the Forty-siXth
session, and in this action the
Third District of Alabama Conn
prising eighty cOunties) exhibits I'M
usual good Judgment. 1t is weak
plank in the platform of the
Democracy to discontinue Con-
gressiOnal Representative as soon
as he has "learned the ropes" and
can do his constituency some good.
One great secret of the power that
New England, Pennsylvania and
the Northwestern States hold in our
National Legislature, is that they
regularly return those members
whom they find competent.

The stomach is the laboratory of the sys-
tenn, in which certain mysterious processes
are constantly going on. These result in
the production of that wonderful ViYifying
agent the blood, which in a state of
health rushes laden with the elements of
vitality TO the remotest parts of the SYSTEM
But when the stomach is semi-paraliZed by
dyspepsia, blood manufacture is carried on
imperfectly, the circulation grows thin and
sluggish, and the system suffers in cOnSe-
quence. Moreover, indigestion reacts upon
the liver and bowels, rendering the first
sluggish and the latter cOnStipulated. The
brain also suffers by sympathy, and sick
headaches, SleepleSSneSS and nervous Symp-
toms are engcndered. Hostetter's stomach
BitterS reforms this state of things gives
permanent tone and regularity to the stom-
ach and is associate organs, the bowels and
liver, and ensures complete nOurishment
and increased vigor of the system. 1t is the
most popular as well as the most efficient
anti-dySpeptic and tonic in America.

Santa Ger.rudIs silver Mining Co.

Our townsman, DR.. J. w. Gray,
has been elected Superintendent of
the Santa Gertrudis Silver Mines,
located near Santa Rosa, Cohuila
county Mexico, and is now buSily
engaged at the mines in getting to
work. 1t will be gratifying news to
the stockholders in this enterprise
in this locality to learn that the de-
VelOpments so far of rich deposits of
silver ore have exceeded the most
sanguine expectations of its prlec-
tors, and the Santa Gertrudis Mines
are believed by competent judges
who have thoroughly inspected
them to be the richest among the
many wonderfully rich mines of
Mexico. The work is being rapidly
pushed forward, improved machin-
cry is being introduced into the
working of the mines, and active
mining operations will soon be be-
gun. A considerable amount of
stock is held in this locality in the
enterprise.
