 NO HARD FEELINGS.

1 The question of removal of the Coun- ty Seat has at last gone before the peo- pie, and they have spoken out upon tie subject just as we thought they would. 4 clear majority of all the polls on the tax books has gone ssFor Change" and we presume there arc none who will not bow in humble submission to the will of the people.
 We hope nobody has had their feel 1 ings hurt in the contest. As for our selves we do not blame Dover and Scottville in the least for striving to keep the County Seat at it's present To- for their own towns and we really honor them for so doing. So far as Atkins is concerned the only word of censure we have to utter against her, more in sorrow than anger, is that her paper stopped so low as to use what we conceive to be very unfair and dishon- orable means to defeat this town. (And right here, while on the subject, we will say to the News that we have no answer to make to it's false insinuation, in it's supplement, against the honor, integrity and uprightness of men on the bond. Its insinuatiohs are too cow ardly, covert and false to merit reply The people of Pope county know the men on that bond and all the venomous l,nf fte i,,l 1n rf ttn News may hurl at them will fall harm less at their feet, or like the boomerang, return and wound the thrower.)
 As for the course which the DEMO- GRAF has pursued, we have done and said nothing but what we have been honest, sincere and conscientious in; and we trust no one will feel ill-will toward us for doing what we merely conceived to be our duty as a county paper, looking to the best and true interests of the whole county. The majority of the people have endorsed our views at the ballot-boX and of course we feel gratifled at the result. We can afford to forgive all who have abused us during the campaign, and assure them we have not the least particle of hard feeling for them. We forgive them for they knew not what they were doing. We can afford to view the result of the matter without | regret, or desire to recant anything, or a hard feeling toward anybody.

Consumption Cured.

An old physician, retired from prac- tice, having had placed in his hands by an East India missionary the formula of a simple vegetable remedy, for the speedy and permanent cure for con- sumption, bronchitis, catarrh, asthma, and all throat and lung affections, also a positive and radical cure for nervous debility and all nervous complaints, after having tested its wonderful cura- tive powers in thousands of cases, has felt it his duty to make it known to his suffering fellows. Actuated by this motive, and desire to relieve human suffering, I will send, tree of charge, to all who desire it, this recipe, with full directions for preparing and using, in German, French, or English. Sent by mail by addressing with stamp, naming this paper, W. W. Sherar. 1l9 Powers Block, Rochester, New York.

The Stepping Stone to Health.

The acquisition of vital energy is the stepping stone to health. When the system lacks vitality, the various or gans flag in their duty, become event ually instituted. To prevent this un- happy state of things, the debilitated system should be built up by the use of that inimitable tonic, Iiostetter's Stom- ach Bitters which invigorates the di- gestive organs, and insures the thor ough conversion of food into blood of a nourishing quality, from whence every muscle, nerve and fiber acquire unwonted supplies of vigor, and the whole system experiences beneficial effect. Appetite returns, the system is refreshed by healthful slumber, the nerves grow strong and calm, the de- spondency begotten of chronic indiges- ton and an uncertain state of health disappears, and that sallow appearance of the skin peculiar to habitual invalids, and persons deficient in vital energy, is replaced by more becoming tinge.

St. Louis Commercial Gazette: In. ventors need now look sharply after their franchises. The United States Attorney General has decided that where letters patent are issued in the names of several individuals, when in fact but one is the inventor, and the others hold only an interest by assignment, the letters are absolute ly void and can not be rendered val i'd by any act of the parties or the patent office. If two years inter venes before the defect is discovered or correct application for patent is submitted to the Patent Bureau, the invention becomes public proper. ty. This opinion seems somewhat unreasonable, and viii likely be re- viewed and perhaps negatiyed ol modified by regular courts.

--Elifiord's Febrifuge is not pana- cea for all the ills to which flesh is heir. We do not profess to have discovered a cURE-ALL, but we confidently recom- mend it to you as sure, safe and speedy cure for all diseases arising from Malaria. In this class of diseases it is a specific: it enters the circulation and utterly destroys the germs of poison ; it will purify and build up the debili- tated system in shorter time, and with more lasting benefit, than any other known remedy.
