druggist and Physician

A physician, complaining bitterly about
dull times, went to his druggist to find out
the reason why, at this season OF the year,
his practice was not so extensive as formerly;
also, to find out what inducements his bro
ther medico offered to attract away his pa
tients. He was startled when his druggist
answered as follows: doctor, coughs and
colds are very prevalent, but every one is
purchasing HALE's HoNEY OF HoRRHouYD
AND TAR, and RECEIVERS so rapidly that there
is no necessity for calling in a physician.
Again, the reason that DR.. F., on -th
street, is having SO many patients 10 owing
to the frankness he adopted in prescribing
in every case of Coughs Colds, etc, bottle
Of HALE's HONEY OF HoRkHoUND AND TAR,
and finding it successful, he had concluded
in future that all his patients, when troub-
led with any disease Of the lungs, shall inn
mediately commence taking HALE's HoEEr
OF HoREHouND AND TAR @.
The druggists advice was snapped, and
the almost discouraged physician now con-.
sidered a successful practitioner. His claims
are based upon the virtues of the medicine
he adopts, which in all cases is HALE's Hoss
EY OF HoREHoUND AND Tar. Sold by all
druggists, Large size much the cheapest.

Surpriae PnrtY.

Last Saturday evening, at an early hour,
Mr.. Chas. II. Sweeney dropped in rather un-
expectedly to make a call on Rev. d. D..
Albright, and although the reverend gentle
man had some little business to attend to, Of
course, for courtesy's sake, he felt impelled
to defer business, and entertain his caller.
This social chat, was, however, most uncere-
moniously interrupted, about 1870 o'clock Joy
an en- maSSe invasion of the parsonage by a
party numbering between thirty and forty
persons, all armed-not with swords, guns,
or bludgions but with baskets, ,bundles, etc,
and which not being hurled at the heads of
the good pastor and his family, were exam
ined and found to be loaded with groceries,
provisions, and other welcome auxilliaries
to peaceful and cheerful home. The in
vaders proved also not to be enemies, but
rather q number ofthe pastors congregation,
who took this astonishing way to remind
him that Saturday was Washington's BIRTH
day. The remainder Of the evening was
agreeably spent in a social interchange Of
words of friendship. Mr.. Albright has been
a hard-working and faithful pastor during
the year, has accomplished much good here,
and has the undivided affections of his con-
gregation and the esteem of the community.
During the week he has been attending the
Evangelical Conference at Allentown.

While the Democrats may apparently
have lost confidence in their ability to
elect Ewing, or any one on their State
ticket, they will vote for every man Oh
the ticket all the same; and when one of
those trading Democratic politicians
comes to a Republican smilingIv and
don't care much about Ewing, and pro-
poses to trade his vote oft-in plain par
lance proposes to vote for Foster or some
other good Republican on the State ticket
if the Republican he intends to Victimize
will just vote for the Democratic candi-
date for Representative-you may take
your Bible oath that if he gets your
promise to do so he will exultingly slide
off and secretly go back on you and vote
the whole Democratic ticket. The only
safe way is to treat every proposition to
trade votes with contempt, for they never
propose to trade votes in Democratic
counties whore they have the power to
elect their own candidates; but where
they are in the minority, as they are in
this county, they are ready to swap off
any candidate on the ticket if they can
swap so as to get Republican votes for
one Of their candidates. They never pro-
pose to swap Eotes unless they can gain
something by the trade.

Hon. A. T. WALLING, of CircleviIe,
addressed the Democrats of this place at
the COASt House on Saturday evening
last. Thefe-Was very fair audience,
composed probably of two-thlrds Demo-
Gratis and one-third Republicans. Mr..
Wallipg labored for some time to prove
to his hearers that the Republicans stole
the Presidency, and that, therefore, Mr..
Hayes was not the legal President of the
United States. Heahad something to say
about the glorious right of free suffrage,
and charged the Republicans with being
in favor of surrounding the polls with
government troops, with fixed bayonets,
TO prevent the Democracy from voting,
all of which he knew to be as base a false
hood as ever escaped from the lips of the
father Of lies, Of course he was in favor
Of greenbacks and hostile to national
banks. His speech, abOunded in misrep-
reservations so glaring as not to deceive
any intelligent observer of facts and the
political history of our country.
