HOUSE, March 3.-The day was consumed for
the most part by the first reading of Senate
bills and the passage of House and Senate bills
on the calendar. Among the former was the
bill regulating the method of grading wheat
and abolishing the brass tester. which was
passed by vote Of 65 to "a. The bill pro-
viding for commission to locate a second
State prison was indefinitely postponed after a
long and somewhat acrimonious debate. HE
bill for a constitutional amendment taxing
church property was, after brief debate, indef-
nitely postponed. A large number of Senate
bills were passed, but none of them were of
any general interest. 1887 @N-.

Abandoned Villages.

While roaming through the oil country
our intereat was excited by having certain
localities pointed out to us as the place
where once stood small city. Perhaps
no part of the oil region shows this as
much as that situated between Oil City
and Titusville, and no place as much as
Petroleum Centre. We stand amazed
and almost doubt the truth of our inform
ant, when we are told that this is the
Petroleum Centre we saw ten years ago.
At that time, as the name implies, it was
the centre of the land OF grease. Sur
rounded as it was the best oil-producins
country, it could not be otherwise.
Vast numbers of houses, stores, machine
shops, ETC., were erected in short time,
ana in 1868 it was city of 5000 or 1000
inhabitants. Everybody in oil dom knew
Petroleum Centre. The city had banks,
immense hotels, large business houses,
and could boast of three or four fine
churches. The whole country around the
place was city. At night 1t was almost
impossible to get through the crowd OF
people collected for all kinds of pleasure.
What change! Nothing can be COM
pared to it except the destruction of war.
Instead of fine residences, the ground is
now used for potato patches; road
marks the place where the principal
street was; the churches yet stand, 5ut
nobody remains to attend them. Perhaps
there are 100 inhabitants in the town now.
North of Petroleum Centre we were shown
the place where in '66 and 81 was the
famous Benningoff Run. There remains
not sign of anything having been there.
As many will remember, this was one of
the best oil territories in the country at
that time. On the northern part of this
farm was small town of the name of
Dublin. 1t had 200 inhabitants, and was
the terminus of the Benning hoff Run
Railroad. Not single house remains
In fact, one would think, not knowing any
better, that it had never been cleared
Many towns like this have gone the same
way. But perhaps the next of import.
ance is Pithole. Like Petroleum Centre
it is nearly gone.-ErcAunge.

That of "Heathen Chinee," if belonging to
one OF our race, can scarcely be described as
attractive. But worse than this, it is the index
o adsordered liver, of liver that needs arous.
ing and regulating. The remedy is at hand,
prompt, etficacious. A course of Hosterter's
Stomach Bitters will cxpel the misdirected
bile from the blood and divertit into tbs prop
er channel, open the bowels, remove the dys-
peptic symptoms which invariably accom-
Pany hiliousness and counteracts the rapidly
developing tendency to dangerous congestion
OF the liver, which must always exist when
the skin and whites of the eyes assume
this yellow hue. The pains through the
right lower ribs, side and shoulder blade,
the nausea, furred state of the tongue.
and unpleasant breath which indicate liver
complaint, in short all its disagreeable con-
comitants are soon remedied by this sovereign
corrective, which in addition to it's regulating
properties is superb invigorant, and pure
ana agreeable medicinal stimulant, appetizer

Bayard Taylor 8 Last Poem,

Bayard Taylor Last Poem.
Say who shall mourn him first,
Who sang in days for song so evil starred,
Shielding from adverse winds the flame he
nursed,-
Our Country's earliest Bard?
For all he sang survives
In stream, and tree, and bird, and mountain
crest,
And conservation of uplifted lives
10 Duty's stern behest;
!lll like an echo falling late and far
AS unto Earth the answer from star,
Along his thoughts so nigh unnoted track
Our peoples heart o'ertakes
His pure design, and hears him, and aWakes
TO breathe its music back!
Approach, sad forms, now fifty to employ
The grave, sweet stops of all melodious sound
Yet undertoned with Joy;
For him We lose, at last is truly found.
Scarce darkened by the shadows of these hours
The Manitou of Flowers,
Crowned with the painted-cup, that shakes
Goes by, but cannot speak;
let Tear or deW-drop meath his coronal breaks
And in his dropping hand
The azure eyelids of the gentian die
That loves the yellow autumn land:
The mlld-HOwer, golden rod,
WlthphlOX and orchis, nod:
And every blossom frail and shy
No careless loiterer sees,
But poet, sun and breeze,
Aud the bright countenance of orr western
sky.
They know who loved them; they. if all
Forgot to dress his pail,
Or strew his couch of long repose,
Would from the prairies and the central snow;
The signing west-wind call,
Their petals, even as withered tears. to bear
And, like Niobe of air,
Upon his seaside grave to let them fall.

Fashtonable EOOlishness.


There is no modern fashionable notion quite
SO absurd as the generally received idea that
to be beautiful and attractive women must
possess wan, s2)irituelle face and figure of
sylph-llke .proportions-a fragility in nine
cases out Of ten the result of disease. Bv
many fashionable bellies it is considered a
special compliment to be spoken of as frail
and delicate. They forget that the naturally
delicate face and petite figure are very different
from the pale and disease. stricken faces that
meet US in the city thorougfares, look out
from the luXuriant carriages of wealth. and
glide languidly through our crowded drawing o.
rooms. II disease were questionable, as it
ought to be, not lady in the land but would
take every possible precaution to secure the
fresh blooming face and well-rounded figure
that only health con give. Ladies should re-
member that much as gentlemen may pro-

wife they prefer blooming, healthful, buoy

FEED YOUNG ANIMALS WELL.-The
man who wears out calfs teeth in the
effort to make it shirk for itself never
raised a prime steer nor good COW. Every
dollar supposed to be thus saved in the
young animal must be replaced by the
expenditure of two. The man who feeds
best while the animal is young makes the
most money. This is generally recog-
nized as true by our best farmers, and
hence the improvement in stock, and
consequent chcapening in the raising of
animals within the past ten years. The
same rule will apply to all farm stock.
Ifstinted while young they never pay the
breeder and feeder a living profit
Hence, the reason why those who do not
keep pace with the times are always
complaining that there is no money in
stock. The big prices paid by the best
stock feeders are for animals that have
had their digestive organs kept intact by
early and properly prepared nutritious
food. The value of good animal lies in
its aptitude to lay on flesh, and those
who keep steadily growing from birth
will continue this growth and increase in
profitable weight. To do this in the most
economical manner the digestive organs
must be originally strong and unimpaired
by abuse.
