During the late unpleasantness
Trenches battery, from this county
was stationed, for several months, neal
Charles City. Lieutenant Thomas A.
Mahood, of the battery, fell desperately
in love with Miss Gentry, but finan.
ces and the removal of'the troops from
the nelghborhood prevented the happy
consummatiOn of the love affair. They
were separated and never met again.
After the lapse ofs6fteen years Lieut.
Mahood, a resident of this town, is in
formed, by letters from gentleman OF
Philadelphia, that the object of his ear.
~ love died in that city short time
since, and has made him heir to a part
Of her handsome fortune, and it only
remains for him to be identified to be
put in possession. Several of the COM

about the affair, and are prepared to say
that the identical Lieut.. Mahood is still

THE BRITISH MIXTURE

Was sold by me last season and gave entire
satisfaction in every case, so far as have been
able to learn,
offer it with confidence, believing there is
no better fertilizer on the market for the price
which is very low-for cash only.

TO a pREssMAKER.

oh! wherefore bid me leave thy side,
Dear Polly, would ask?
How can all my feelings cloak
When in thy smiles basque?
Nay, "Polly-nay." cannot go!
Oh! do not stand aloof,
When of my warm affection.
You possess, oh! water proof.
Why will you thus my feelings gore
By sending me away?
You know it's wrong-of corset is
Thus 20 forbid my stay,
1t seems as though some fell disease
Was gnawing at my heart,
And hem orrhage would ensue
five, perchance, should part
Then waist the precious times no more,
But let the parson tie us
Sew firmly that the marriage knot
Shall never be cut bias.
In peaceful quietude we'll float
On life's unruffied tide,
Nor let the hustle of the world
"Pull-back" as on we glide.
POETIC CRoQUET.
IT'S pleasant at the close of day
To play

And if your partner makes miss,
Why, kiss
The siss,
But If she gives your shin thwack,,
Why, whack
Her hack

WOMEN AND CLOSETS.-SO deeply
rooted is the feminine passion for closets
that it is doubtful if an woman can live
when totally deprived of closets. There
was an arrogant and brutal husband who
once built a house without single closet
merely in order, as he said, to convince
his wife that closets are unnecessary
That unfortunate woman was well and
strong when she moved into the house,
but three days afterward she began to
droop. She would walk aimlessly from
room to room with spare dress hang
ing on her arm, and would make futile
efforts to hang it up on flies or casual
spots on the wall. She grew rapidly
worse. and at the end of the week q
physician was called in, who soon dis.
covered what was the matter, and in
formed the husband that his wife's sys-
tenn imperatlvely required closets. The
cold-blooded monster explained that it
was too late to furnish it with Closets
The physician felt the force of the argu-
ment, and thereupon recommended
"wardrObes" of familiar devices, not
with the hope of curing the patient, but
as palliatives. The brutal husband
would not buya single wardrobe, and
unfeelingly said that his wife could put
her things on chairs. Being conscien-
tious man, the doctor at once threw up
the case. and in fortnight the woman
died. There is not the slightest doubt
as to her disease, and the doctor always
maintained that had her system been
toned up with two or three large closets
she would have recovered.

TO Prevent Sickness.

The pronounced opinions of the ablest
Therapeutics indicate that most diseases
are the direct result of Initiated Blood; and
as their successful treatment of disease is
founded on the principle and practice of
eliminating this blood poison by .iudicious
purgation, so this same principle, by rea-
sonable adaptation to any case, is the
surest means to prevent disease
Kellers Vegetable Life Drops are an alb
solute preventive of diseases caused by i'm
purity Of the Blood, of Liver diseases, of
diseases ofthe Stomach, Intestines, etc. Its
corrective influence will prevent or short
en- attacks of Dyspepsia, Jaundice, Merry
GUS Debility, Uterine disorders, Fever and
Ague and all that numerous class of dis
eases induced bymalarial poison. T0pre-
vent disease, then, purify the blood if
needed by using reliable Alternative and
purgative; this, conjoined with the observ-
ance of hygienic directions, will establish
a condition of body in which health will
be the rule and disease the exception. A
careful perusal of the manual Of Purga-
tive and Depuratiye Medicine" will fully
illustrate the subject Of which the 'aboye
is a mere outline, and will clearly indicate
the method of using Keller's Vegetable
Life Drops To be had at Drug Stores OF

How TO Cure Sickness

Natures method of publication and
consequent cure is founded on the rational
principle of judicious puTg ation;and when
it is considered that the best physicians
pursue the practice of attention to the
stomach and bowels as preliminary land
often the only treatment of disease, it is
not difficult to perceive that q remedy
possessing all the requisites of purgatiye
and Alternative, in addition to other and
valuable remedial influence, must obtain
for itself more than ordinary consideration
and favor. Our remedy combines every
quality required for the treatment of dis
ease on the above-naMed rational princi-
pie. 1t is pleasant Cathartic, active
or gentle, according to the dose; it is
Blood purifier, toning and enriching this
fluid by its Alternative property; its action
on the Liver is soothing and certain, pro-
noting the hillary secretions; it is a safe
andreliable Emmenagogue, acting sDecifi-
Cally upon the uterine system; il affords
tho, greatestattainable relief in Dyspepsia,
and cures whenever used as directed
and in conjunction with hygienic means
Is the best preventive Of CONSTIPATION
that can be suggested
From the above it would then appear
that the simplest method to cure sickness
Is that one which combines judicious pur-
CATION with physical sustenance, and the
observance Of hygienic measures; the
head should be Kept cool, the feet warm,
and the bowels open; and when treating
diseases on the principles exhibited in the
manual referred to below (Which every
one should reaD the strength should be
sustained by nourishing Cnot stimulating
food Of the kind adapted to the complaint
while the remedy is removing the disense
