A DRY GooDs DREAM--A woman who
goes into NJ COINS emporium drifts off in :
| to a dream of rare and beautiful feminine
finery. She sees the best product of foreign
looms piled up on the counters, laces, drap-
cries, illusions and elegant toilette materials,
such as only the rarest skill can produce
and which women of taste admire. The
secret of the success of this house lies In
the fact that NJ. Cohn knows how to select
the best and is never imposed upon by the
eastern houses who work off their inferior
goods on inexperienced persons.
ATTENTION The greatest wonder yet dis
covered in medicine is Mrs. DR.. Howe's
celebrated rheumatism neuralgia and tooth
pain of having tooth drawn than buy
bottle of Mrs DIR. Howe's toothach medi-
cine? Mothers should not be without it for
their infants A few drops in little sweet
ened water to swab teething baby;s mouth
will instantly relieve the little sufferer.
The medicine does not cauterize, and is very
pleasant Sold by all druggists. mh7

to us by Mr.. c. ". Friend, was G2S inches
From the LIST up to o'clock yesterday morn
ing two inches of rain fell. This gives a tota
of 1913 inches. From these figures 1t will bt
seen that nearly one-fourth of the r,in fall OF
the season came during the first Ave days OF
the present month Mr.. Friends measure
ment is made by Signal Service rain gauge,
and may be relied upon as thoroughly accurate.
A fall of S2S inches of, rain during a season
for this locality appears to be a light one, and
we believe is SO considered. 1t certainly is as
compared with the rain falls of California
In Santa Barbara, in our sister State, the rain
fall for the forty six hours ending February
10Th, 1880, was 9.93 inches, or nearly two
inches more than in Carson during the whole
season.

The Vega mine is situated on the west side of

MORRISON FOR PRESIDENT.
From the Boston Post.


The Hon. William r. Morrison of I'LL
nois, who may be the candidate for the first
or second place on the Democratic national
ticket has brilliant war record as we'll as
an enviable one as civilian and states
man. When the Mexican war broke out,
in 1916, he was one of the first to offer his
services to his country, and he fought gal
lantly at Beuna Vista and in other engage
ments. In 1861, at the breaking out Of
the rebellion, he organized the Forty ninth
Illinois regiment and led it in several
bloody battles during the first year of the
war, most notable of which were Belmont,
Fort Henry and Fort Donelson. AT this
last bloody struggle Col. Morrison was shot
through the hip, while he stood upon par
apet wall, cheering on his men. In
1862 he was elected to congress
by the Democrats of his district, defeating
the Hon. Jehu Baker, who, like the Hon
James G. Blaine, was a terrible hater of
rebel brigadiers, but sent substitute to DO
his fighting. In 1864 and 1866 he was de-
fsated by small majorites, in the former
year by only seventy-six votes, and these
are the only times he was ever defeated for
office at the polls. In 1870 he was for the
fourth time elected to the state Legislature.
In 1872 he was again elected to congress,
beating the Hon. John Hay, popular Re
publican. He has since been repeatedly
elected to congress, successfully defeating
Gen. Rinaker, Judge Baker and Hon.
Jehu Baker. In 1875 the lamented
Speaker Kerr appointed Col. Morrison
chairman of the most important com
mittee in congress-the ways and means
and he has since rapidly achieved nation
a. reputation as a statesman and reformer.
AS parliamentarian he is one of the best.
While the Post is not booming for Morrison,
nor for Tilden, nor for Bayard, nor for Hen
bricks, nor for any other of the proposed
candidates, but proposes to labor earnestly
for whoever in the wisdom of the conven-
ton is selected to bear aloft the old and
time-honored banner of Democracy, never
theless it can but take pride in presenting
the record made by himself by the gallant
Col. Morrison of Illinois.

THE EXPECTED RAILROAD STRIKE.

lNpIANAPoILs March 23.-For several
days past there have been vague rumors
ahoat of an impending strike among all
employees Of the railroads leading into this
city, but they are denied by railroad au-
thorities, and the men remain reticent on
the subject. The reason for the great
strike of 1877, the companies promised to
increase the pay Of employees as soon as
better trade would justify it, and no such
increase has been made except on few of
the roads. 1t is very evident that business
has greatly augmented in the last three
years, and that traffic is hauled at better
rates than ever before; consequently the
profit of the companies must be much
larger. The employees claim that the roads
are IN honor bound to restore wages to at
least what they were before the reduc.
ton which brought on the strike, and if
they do not do so an organized effort will
be made to compel them to do so. 1t is
said the strike will commence April 1.

GALVESTON March 23.-Thc widest ex-

of Mexico passed on toward her place of
anchorage she was greeted by deafening
cheers and laundering salute from bat
terry of artillery. The we'll known form of

and all the prominent officers of this city,
and by Gen. Ord, who had come here es-
pecially to meet him.
