So Nice.

Editing a paper is the incest thing
q man can engage in. He has all
sorts Of people to please, and it is an
old saying that in pleasing every one
you please none and truer maxim
man never gave utterance to.
If we publish jokes people will say
we are trying to be funny and don't
know how; and if we omit jokes they
say we are an old fossil, and our paper
is stale as bread is in'dog days. If we
write poetry, they say we are getting
spooney on some girl; and if we fail
to publish poetry the girls say, GLOW
awful why don't hep" If we publish
household receipts Of merit, the matron
says "Just as much as he knows about
it; )" and if we don't publish them,
they say, Gle ought to give them !"
when he did they would not use them.
If we give complimentary notice the
rest say we are partial, and if we
don't compliment person they say
"He is hog, a cur dog" and other
pet names not very complimentary to
us. If we wear poor clothes, folks
say "be is not to be trusted; )" and if
we wear good ones, they say she stole
them, or has been 20 a fire, or they
are not paid for" If we send in bills
that are overdue from subscribers,
they send it along with a request to
stop their paper, and that we are a
"blasted hog;;" but if VIC let it run
without paying, year in and year out,
and fail by this means, they say she
ought to have collected closer, for his
paper is good one, and ought to have
gone along"

HOW 90 YOU ACCOUNT FOR ri

HOW 90 you ACCOUNT F0RlI?
Eow DOES it hep
pen that, while bust
ness generally is SO
dull, Page IS having
such q coed trade in;
Stoves7
We'll, we will suggest five
reasons tand there are m6re(;
.FIRST-He keeps the largest
and most complete assort-
mcnt to be found in the
State, comprising over IS
different kinds and numbers;
SO that, when anything in
the Stove line is wanted, the
exact size, quality and kind
can there be found.
SECOND-He guarantees cV
cry article soldto be precise
ly as represented, or it may
be returned and the pay re-
funded,
THIRD-Ite is always ready
to TRADE or exchange.
Takes Lumber, Shingles,
Cedar Posts, Sugar, Grain,
Hay, Produce, Wood, Old
lron;-in fact, almost any
kind Of plumber from a trade
dollar to a 2d-hand piano.
FOURfIf-iIe keeps not on
~ new Stoves, but has a very
large Inc of Secondhand
Stoves, many Of which are
nearly new and is sound as
when they came from the
foundry, which he is selling
at about onc-half the price
Of new; and others, more
or less worn and unsoundj
which he is nearly giving
away.
FIFTII--And last, though not
least, he remembers the
Printer and advertiscs. He
keeps the goods-hc tells
the public so-thcy come to
scc-hc satisfies thcm-and
they buy. Buying largely
, of him allows him to buy
largely, and consequently at
close figures, andbuying low
enables him to sell low OF
exchange for what the pur-
chaser has to give in cx-
, change! Ills exchange trade
enables him to supply the
public with large variety
of miscellaneous goods (see
= his advertisement in another
column), and SO the wheel
rolls around, keeping trade
lively and the public salts
fed. If you doubt these
statements, call at his store
rooms, see for yourselves,
and verify all we have said.

court hovel" at Hyde Park has been pro-
vided with door, Other improvements
are reported--such as the furnishing of a
window, a spittoon, an inkstand, a goose
quill, and three old raisin boxes for
CHEERS" We are cruelty left in doubt,
however, as to the use now made of that
part of the shanty formerly used by
Uncle Sherwin as a carpenter shop
Burlington clipper.
The clipper is informed that "that
part Of the shanty formerly used by
Uncle Sherwin" in the "court hovel,"
is to be fitted up to the taste of "Clint, A."
wherein he can publish his brilliant
side-splitting jokes and heightened and
sparkling wit. Such genius should
be encouraged.

"REMINISCENCES OF THE WAR.
A TRANCE Statement of StantOn's Action
Regarding Chickamauga.
washington cor. CInelnnatl Enqnirer.

Washington Cor. Cincinnati Enquirer
The occasion of the reunion Of the
| Army of the Cumberland in this city
recalls to the mind of one who Is to
take conspicuous part in it, the fol-
| lowing incident connected with the bat
tie of Chickamauga, never before made
public. Let the story proceed as near
| ly as ] can relate it in the gentleman's
own words:
'sDo You know" said he, "that it was
deliberately planned by Stanton, Hal
leck ard other high officials in Wash
ingtcn, thai Rosecrans should be defeat
ed at Chickamauga? Chattanooga had
been taken by Rosecrans, but as STRAIT
eeie point it was of no use unless the
range of bills beyond was taken. Rose
Grams knew this, and telegraphed to
Washington for reinforcements. Inc
reply came: You have enough troops;
YOU overrate the enemy's strength.
You must hold your position, and adj
vance If necessary Again Rosecrans
sent q telegram 10 Washington, stating
that Longstreet and Beauregard were
in his front, and that all of the troops in
East Z tennessee were being concentrate
ed under them. To give them battle,
added Rosecrans, is useless sacrifice
of human life. 1t is murder 10 re.
DIV he received positive order to hold
his own, and under no circumstances to
retreat. Upon receipt of this dispatch
Rosecrans telegraphed to the venerable
Archbishop Purcell, of Cincinnati, to
come at once 10 his headquarters. The
Archbishop was somewhat dazed at the
request, but complied with it and pro-
ceeded direct to Chattanooga. When
he reached there Rosecrans told him
that he expected q battle, and that 1t
would be fought against his better Judg-
ment. but under direct orders from
Washington he had only one OF two
things to do-either to resign or obey
ord rs. The Archbishop agreed with
Rosecrans that it would not do under
the circumstances to resign, but that he
was soldier, and that It was his duty
to die soldier under orders rather
than disobey them. Tnereupon Rose
Grams told the Archbishop that terrible
battle was imminent, and that II he was
defeated and fell he wished him to VIM
dictate him in history. The Archbishop
proceeded to Nashville, and in hospital
No. II assembled all the Sisters Of Char
ity and such Catholics as were there,
and held a mass. An altar was extern
porized out OF piano. The Archbish-
OF said, in substance, to those gathered
al out him that he wanted all to pray
with renewed zeal for a victory to the
union arms; that a great battle was inn
pending In Tennessee, and that the
brave commander feared the worst |
The result Of the battle of Chickamauga
Is now history. Rosecrans was success
ful, but the rock OF his defense was Gen. /
Thomas, whose statue was recently UNI
yelled in this city, and upon whom
Stanley Matthews pronounced fitting
eulogy.

4 Re medy for Diphtheria.

IMPERIAL RUSSIAN LEGATION, WASH
INGToN, Nov. 16, 1S79.-To the editor
of the New York Herald: In view of
the increase of diphtheria in several
places of the state of New York hasten
to communicate to you for publicity q
very simple remedy, which having been
used in Russia and Germany, may
prove effective here. Out of several
others, DR.. Letzerich, who made ex-
tensive experiments in the application
of this remedy, has used it in twenty
seven cases, eight of which were of a
very serious nature, all of which had a
favorable result, except in one case,
when the child died from complica-
ton of diseases. For children of one
year he prescribes the remedy, for IN
ternal use, every one or two hours as
follows:
Natr. Benzoic, pur 0 solv. in aq.
distillat aq. menth. piper. ana 400 syr.
cort. aur. 100.
For children from one to three years
old he prescribed from seven to eight
grammes for 100 grammes OF distilled
water, with same syrup; for children
from three to seven years old he pre-
scribed ten to fifteen grammes, and for
grown persons from fifteen to twenty
five grammes for each one hundred
grammes.
Besides this ne uses also with great
success the installation on the diphthe-
rial membrane through glass tube In
serious cases every three hours, IN light
cases three times a day of the natr.
benzoic pulver. For grown people he
prescribes gargling dilutior of ten
grammes ofthis pulver for 200grammes
of water.
The effect Of this remedy is rapid.
After twenty-four or thirty-six hours the
feverish symptoms disappear COM
pletely, and the temperature and pulse
become normal. This remedy was
used also with the same success by DR..
Braham Braun and Prof Klebs, in
Prag, DR.. Senator, in Cassel, and several
others in Russia and Germany.
Hoping that the publication through
your widely spread paper will prove
beneficial in the United States, remain
yours, very truly, n. SHIsHK1N,
Minister OF Russia to the United States.

blowing in one of his fields, struck ar
object just below the surface which
proved to be the body of man. Smith
gave an alarm, and soon an inquest wal

gone Close investigation gives no trace

Pay Of French Legisla' ors.
Galignam's Messenger tParisl.

As the French Chambers are about
to return to Paris, it may not be unin-
teresting to give a glance at the situa-
ton of the different deliberative assem-
blies which have succeeded each other
in this country since 1889. In that
year the number of representatives
was 774-nine per department and
three extra. Each member received
Is francs day, and thus the assembly
cost 1882 francs daily, or 331, 966
francs month for twenty-four sittings.
The whole session of nine months,
therefore, required 1855 francs.
In addition, 81 800 francs was allowed
for the bureau, making q total of 3 .038,-
922 francs. The members of the Corps
Legislatif, which came after the repre-
sentatives of the people, had 10000
francs each per session, with the obi
CATION of having carriage for two leg
islators. Under the restoration the
deputies received no pay. The presi-
dent alone had 100000 francs to meet
the expense Of receptions. Under
Louis Philippe the members did not
have any salary, but the president had
10000 francs. In 1S48 the deputies
of the Second Republic, VINO were 600
in number, received % francs q day, or
DO, 900 francs month. The session
lasted nine months and cost 1906, 900
francs, including the president and
questors. Under the empire, that is to
say from 1852 to 1870, there were 283
deputies. They received at first 1900
francs O. month during the time Of the
sessions. Afterward they had fixed
salary of 1850 francs. The president
of the legislative corps had fixed al
lowance Of 100000 francs, and 10000
for costs of receptions. The sessions OF
the second empire absorbed 3,530,000
francs. In1S71, the assembly at Bor-
deaux was composed of 700 members,
who were paid $50 francs month. or
5000 francs a year. They had their
salaries even during the months when
they did not sit. The allowance of the
president was reduced at this period to
10000 francs, and that of the questors
to $4,000 francs. Since 1876, the
chamber is composed of 548 members,
including the representatives of the
French colonies. Each member has a
fixed allowance of 750 francs month.
The presidents salary is 10000 francs,
and that of the questors $4,000 francs.
independently of their salaries, these
three functionaries have numerous
privileges, such as lodging, firing, light
ing, attendance, etc.
