THE GAZETTE for 1879,

THE GAZETTE for 1879.
The Baltimore Gazette is a daily newspaper
which appeals to the public society on its mer.
its as journal of the day. 1t is a compenium
of news at home and abroad, each event being
written, prepared and edited according to its
relative importance Not line appears in The
Gdtzette which is not useful or instructive. 1t
essays to give the news in q nutshell and at q
price in keeping with the economical demands
of the times.
The Gazette has opinions and it expresses them
daily in tcrse and pointed English. 1t is thor
oughly Democratic in its teachings and tenden-
cies but independent ofall corrupt rings, cliques
or factious Oligarchies The Gazette believes
that the principles of the Democratic party
should prevail. To that end it will labor to
place the Democratic party in power and thereby
bring about much needed change in the admin
istration ofthe Government. In Municipal State
and National politics The Gazette will lend its
aid to the representatives of the Democratic
principles. A great struggle for political mas.
terry is coming on. In 1880 another battle for
the Presidency will be fought. The importance
of such newspaper as The Gazette in educating
organizing and preparing the people for this
contest cannot be over estimated The News,
Editorial, and local features of The Gazette will
be thoroughly maintained and improved during
the year. The department of Foreign Cores
pondence has attained standard uneQuaed in
Baltimore journalism, and as whole here is no
daily journal in the country which contains SO
many popularftatures furnished at such popular
prices.
The Baltimore Weekly Gazette is folio jour-
nal same size as the Daily, which contains every
week an epirome of Home and Foreign News,
Charming Stories, Entertaining Miscellany,
Complete Market Reports, Correspondence, Ed
itorials and Family Reading, all selected with
care and with especial reference TO the needs of
people who are unable by reason of location or
circumstances t" take daily paper.
The Baltimore Daily Gazette is furnished at Sc
per year to mail Subscribers. postage included. II
is devered by carriers at II cents per 1ceek and is
sold IN single copies for . cents
The Weekly Gasette is mailed TO subscribers at
the rate Of 81 psr gear; months, 80 cents
Price aud All things considered, The Daily and
Weekly Gazette are the best papers printed on he
South Atlantic Seab"nrd, aud we hope during
the coming year To add thousands of names t.
our lists in Baltimore and contiguous sections.
All letters aud inquiries in regard to subscrip-
tions or matters ofbusiness should he addressed
to THE GAZETTE.

One Eye That is Always Drunk.

An Allegheny physician, who, in his
way, is a great wag, tells a story of a
North Side gentleman who for years has
suffered from periodical attacks of what
in medical parlance is known as SUPER
Orbital neuralgia. Quinine proved Of no
effect, and the sufferer was almost GRAZ
ed with pain. A kind-hearted old lady
living in the neighbOrhOOd Of the patient
informed him that if he would cut the
affected nerve with u pair OF scissors or
Il knife it would give him no further
trouble. 1t so happened that the super
Orbital nerve is the one which controls
the action of the eye-lid, and it further
happens that when man is in liquor this
nerve becomes paralyzed, and it is this
that gives drunken person such COM
zeal expression about the eyes. The
neuralgia patient no sooner heard what
he supposed the welcome news from the
old lady than he repaired to his closet
and with jack knife parted in twain the
offending nerve, and he now greets his
friends with his right eye as sober As II
Quaker in quarterly meeting, and the
left in highly intoxicated condition.
1t now only costs half as much as it for
merly did to go on a bender.-Ptttsburg

IA p6et in the Atlantic Monthly sings:
~ IDOL grieve with summer here?
N th Flower that died last year; l
~ tke6ld drops of the dew, and my
old Ne, strand not you." She may
have her old love for all we care.h she
can get him; but we shouldn't think ne
would want her. She is little Eighty
i'm the mansard roof. She can't get the
flower that died last year; and as for the
old drops of dew they are due no more
forever. New drops of dew and the
flower that was born this year ought to
satisfy any reasonable poet. They are
just as good as the old ones. But we
can understand why she should grieve
with summer here. Her fathers finances
would not permit of a trip to the seaside
this season. -NOrrist0Wn Herald.
