DR.. HAMLIN:-When I met your agent
here, in September, had been two years suf-
fering severelywith Rheumatism, half of that
time confined to the house, and three months
at time to my bed. The balance of the
time was compelled to crawl around upon
clutches. / used medicines without number,
including large quantity of morphine, all of
which proved worse than useless. AS to what
suffered, the English language cannot tell
1t TO any one who has not tried it's realities
The first application of Wizard Oil gave
me relief in fifteen minutes, and dispelled my
doubts in twenty-four hours. l used bottle
a day for ten days. The next morning after
the use of the first bottle,
L left my Clutches at home and
walked down town without them
for the first time in two years.
Since thenI have not used them, and can now
split cord of wood as quick as any man in
Adrian. Some of my friends at first thought
such sudden cure would kill me, but wanted
change, though it should be death.
That all who read this may know how
have been, | will say, when | commenced
using Wizard Oil, could reach around my
! leg above the knee with one hand
was reduced to mere skele-
ton, and most of the time
when I moved upon
clutches, or tried to stand
without them, I could not raise
either foot from the floor.
l used fifteen bottles in all, but have not used
any for two months. 1 now feel as well as
ever did in my life, and have gained thirty-five
pounds in flesh. But must tell you it seems
almost like dream. You can refer to me as
often as you wish, and hundreds of the citi-
zens of Adrian will testify to the truth of
my statements.

Everything being ready, Miss Thurs ton took her position in the basket, took the reins of the aerial courser into her own hands, the word was given and the balloon flew away like bird released from captivity. In mo- ment it was several hundred feet above the earth, three cheers were given for Miss Thurston and ill response she waved an adeu and sped upward, the balloon bearing toward the east. The balloon was a new one, this being it's first ascension, and as it mount ed upward It struck the higher current of air, and swayed and swung beautifully in the airy pillows. have witnessed number of ascen- sions, but never saw anything like it. Several times it took an almost perpendicular position instead of horizontal one, and many cried out "Oh, dear l" fearing it would be capsized The sight for a few moments was almost painful This swaying soon ceased, however, and the balloon shot upward above the clouds, though occasional glimpses could be caught between the clouds for some time All re- membered her recent adventure in the North Woods, and much anxiety was manifested for her safe descent Within twenty-five minutes after she left a telegram was received that she had passed Stamford, twenty miles away, after which no news was received until this morning, then telegram came that she had tried to land about six miles east from Stam- ford, but had failed and had risen again and passed on eastward. For two hours no fur ther news was received then a dispatch came to Prof Squire that she had landed safely at Richmondville, Schoharie Co.,, N. Y, about thirty five miles from here.

Letter from Rev. MT. Barden.

ED. NEWS: s:-Remote as I am from the land ''fowing with milk and honey,' l know it is difficult to pen communications that will be of interest to your readers, consequently l do not trouble you often, Perhaps just few lines about our county fair will not be out of place. The fair was held Tuesday, Wednes
 day and Thursday of this week and was a success in every respect. The attendance was large and the exhibits good. Delaware Coun- ty is the place for fine horses. It would have done some of your renders (such fellows as Dr. Camp, Mcintyre, Rob. Van Deusen, and guess I'll put the Rev. Hunt in) good to have seen the fine horses, both single and teams that were on the grounds. The principle attraction on Thursday was the bal loon ascension by Miss Nellie Ihurston. By 10 a. m. the people began to arrive in large numbers from every direction. The ascension took place about 3:30 p. m., by which time from 4,O0O to 5000 persons were on the grounds, many of whom had stood for hours around the tank to witness the process of in-

How 1t Struck Him.

The writer of this article, notwithstanding recent illness, through none but pure mo. tives and feelings of patriotism as he trusts, went with his family to Hartford on the 17th inst, which was Battle Flag Day." to par. ticipate in the general parade to witness the ceremonies appropriate to the occasion and, also, to enjoy the festivities prepared for the soldiers and their families by the citizens of the place. Though he was in the parade, it was not really expected that the rest of his family would be. If he knows anything about distances, the parade embraced about five miles march at the very least calculation. We did not start until between twelve and one and after the march and ceremonies in recelv- ing the flags at the new Capitol it was half an hour before the time of the leaving of the train when we started for the tent where the collation. was to be served. Under the cir cumstances, the writer and his family were obliged to forego an expected treat, as the excursion tickets were good for the day only, or stay at some hotel and return next day by paying full fare. The latter he did not think best to do. He does not think there was any soldier on the train that partook of the cola- tion or could do so. Many could not even get inside of the tent such was the rush, and even those that were fortunate enough to do so found it all cleaned out. Now, MT. Editor, would it not have been better to have the fol- lowing suggestions needed, viz: First, to have started earlier on the parade. Second, to have it consisted in the march to the Arse nal and return to the new Capitol by the most direct or nearest route, instead of paradng us all over the city. Third, to have made ample provision for the soldiers and ther families. Fourth, to have given us ample time to par hurry to get to the trains. Tho caution, to carry lunch so as to refresh yourself before going on the parade, was duly needed.
 When family invites persons to their home, they see that they are treated in a civil manner, and if they have to take a train in order to get home, they see that they are there on time. In behalf of the 2d c. V. II. A. of which am member, l will state that their reunion is here next year; that they could not find better place for enter tainment in the State than the happy land of Canaan. Ample provision will be made for the soldiers of the regiment and their fam flies. The citizens of Canaan intend that the regiment with their families will be treated in a becoming manner. OLIN NASH,

State Attorney Olmsted stated to the court that he understood the accused was of general good behavior except when under the influence of liquor, and said he thought the demands of justice would be satisfied by comparatively light sentence. The court assented, and after impressively admonishing young Lyon to quit drinking, sentenced him to one years i'm prisonment in the county jail.

Col. Ruford's Crime.

The assassination of Judge Elliot
at Frankfort, KY, at noon on
Wednesday, 26th ult., by Col. Tom
Buford, was a crime which cries to
heaven for vengeance. Nothing in
the annals of even the ozark and
bloody ground equals it. 1t was
a high handed defiance of law IN
equsled even in the bloody murder
of Col. Aston at Atlanta, and of
the actor Porter at Marshall, Texas,
a few days before. Judge Elliot
was a member of the Supreme
Court, or Court of Appeals, of Ken
lucky, and in the exercise of his
duties as Judge had rendered a de
cision adverse to the opinions and
wishes of his assassin. For this he
was waylaid at the door of his no
tel, and as he was about to enter
for his dinner, the fatal shot gun in
the hand OF the blood thirsty assas
sin took his life. 1t had been spe
cially loaded with twelve buck shot
for the purpose. The murder had
been In contemplation tor some
time. 1t was his purpose at first t.

Savage Hoisted on His Own Petard.

Columbia Tenn. Sentinel: "The
speech made by John H. Savage in
the Legislature last week was one
of the most remarkable productions
ever put forth in any deliberative
assembly. 1t was remarkable. not
for its ability o: Its originality, nor
for its strong common sense, but
remarkable for it's abuse and de
nunciation of the best uen in the
State. To be abused by Savage is
no injury to any man. When he
undertakeS TO say that such men as
James X. Polk, Aaron Y. Brown,
James G. Jones and Andrew John
son recommended the passage of
unconstitutional laws, the people
who have any sense will know how
TO appreciate such sentiments
The highest compliment that could
be paid our supreme court was that
he did not admire them. He says
we do not owe anything, but he is
willing to make a gift to the bond
holders OF eight millions of dollars.
Now, if we 40 not owe any debt,
then we should not pay one cent,
