Conn nissiOners and Court House.

The board of County Commissioners
met on Monday. the I'd inst, and adjourn
ed on Thursday last. The only business
of importance transacted was the examin-
alton and allowing of sundry accounts,
making an appropriation Of $500 for the
purpose of repairing the road leading over
the divide to the Yellowstone, and several
smaller sums for outside road districts.
No action was taken on the Court House
matter. In fact, it appears that nothing
can be done until it shall be ascertained
whether the bonds can be negotiated or
not. 1t is generally thought that the con-
ditions of sale, imposed by the Legisla-
t,re, are so stringent as to defeat the OBJ
ject of the measure. 1t will be the 18th
Of July before anything definitely can be
known in REGARD to the sale of the bonds.
The ret'nding bonds are placed under pre-
cisely the same restrictions as to the price
at which they must be sold and the inter-
est they shall bear.

According to the Madisonian, Rev. Il.
II. Howey, who has lately been shedding
FORTH in the NJ. f. Church, Virginia City,
has delivered himself of some very wild
assertions; as, for instance: his charac-
terization of the press as vehicle of evil,
''daily sending out tons upon tons of lit
erature whose only effect is to debauch the
morality of the nation" We suspect the
poor fellow don't know any better. Most
of those ''pilgrim" preachers wear green
goggles occasionally.

THE FATAL MISTAKE.

"Only shower" says the good house wife,
perceiving the cloud, mo bigger than mans
hand" above the horizon. But the shower
may prove to be a tempest, destroying life and
property. "Only a cold,' said my friend, Mrs.
Simpkins, when [ mentioned her apparent in
disposition. A week later she appeared I'M
usually well; Never better in my life,'' she
declared in answer to my congratulations upon
her recovery. A month later, she again COM
planned of a severe cold, although completely
at loss to account for the manner in which
she contracted it. But in few days the
cough left her and she pronounced herself
quite we'll After one of these repeated attacks
of indisposition the cough continued, and only
then did she learn from the physician she con-
suited, that the 'colds' she had considered of
so little consequence were the symptoms of the
early stages of consumption, and that the
disease had already become so settled in her
system as to be almost intractable to treatment.
This is the fatal mistake ef~thousands who
each year sink into consumptives' graves. 1t
IS the most insidious of diseases developing
without arousing suspicion of its presence,
and even after discovery, flattering the
patient into the belief that he has not con-
sumption Under proper medical and n.y.
gienic treatment consumption is durable, as
has been proved in thousands of cases. DIR.
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery cures con-
sumption in its early stages, but no remedy can
arrest the disease when it is advanced to the
second stage. The Invalids' Hotel, at Buffalo,
N. Y, affords special and unsurpassed advan-
tages for the successful treatment of this
ment statistics of 1876 to be especially free
from this disease,) agreeable surroundings,
luxurious accommodations, together with its
unequaled facilities for treatment, both medi-
cal and hygienic, render it, without exagger-
alton, the consumptives' paradise.
