 MR. EDITOR: Having read in your paper reports of the, remarkable cures of catarrh, am induced to tell ''what l know about ca tarrh," and fancy the snuff and 'inhaling- tube" makers (mere dollar grabbers) would be glad if they could emblazon a similar cure in the papers. For 26 years 1 suffered with ca tarrh. The nasal passage became completely closed. ''Snutf," dust, ''ashes," inhaling- tubes, and sticks" wouldn't work, though at intervals 1 would snuff up the so-calleu catarrh snuff, until became valuable tester for such medicines. gradually grew worse and no one can know how much 1 suffered or what miserable being was. My head ached over my eyes so that 1 was confined to my bed for many successive days, suffering the most intense pain, which at one time last ed continuously for 168 hours. All sense of smell and taste gone, sight and hearing i'm paired, body shrunken and weakened, nervous system shattered, and ,constitul ion broken, and was hawking and splitting seven-eighths of the time. prayed for death to relieve me of my suffering favorable notice in your paper of Dr. Sages's Catarrh Remedy induced me to purchase q package, and use it with Dr. Pierce's Nasal Douche, which applies the remedy by hydrostatic pressuse, the only way compatible with common sense. We'll, Mr. Editor, it. did not cure me in three -fourths, of seeOHd, not in one hour or month, but in less than eight minutes 1 was relieved, and in three months entirely cured, and have remain ed so for over sixteen months. While using the. Catarrh Remedy, I used Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery to purify my blood and strengthen my stomach. also kept my liver active and bowels regular by the use of his Pleasant Purgative Pellets. If my ex- perience will induce other sufferers to seek the same means of relief, this letter will have answered it's purpose. Yours truly,
 s. D. REMICK.

2AFFf Ss E1I1 [ OBITUARY.

At Cornwall, Feb. 19, of pneumonia, Jane Ann, wife of John T.. Andrew, Esq, in the 66th year of her age.
 At the funeral of Mrs. Andrew, held at the Congregational church, Sunday. Feb. 22, an eloquent and appropriate sermon was deliver edFzby her, pastor, the venerable Dr. s. J. White, the closing remarks of which were as follows: t<8 $ < D. ~+s
 In regard to Mrs. Andrew I need say but little to people, who have known her longer than have. It is not probable that can tell them anything new. But historical verities are not the things most in place when our hearts are bleeding.
 Mrs. AndrewIw was born in this town, andhas lived in this vicinity sixty-six years. This is time enough to make her known, If time can do it. But some have lived to much greater age and are not known to any good purpose Years are poor measure of Christian life in all it's fullness The length of river is not always proof of it's depth.
 It isaher christian life by which we know her. It is this life that has caused her to im- prove on acquaintance; the more she is known the more she is respected and loved At least this is so. with me. Those are rare virtues that bear we'll the test of acquaintance. Test ed virtues bloom, are fragrant, are immortal. They cannot help but live for they are rooted in Gods life.
 She was kind And kindness is Christ.like How blessed to be kind like Jusus, who has shown us how kindness on earth reaches Heaven. 'In as much as ye did it to one of the least of these, ye dld it to me-"
 Her kindness was an unfailing ministering angel at the sick bed. The sick of this town will greatly miss her: How good it is when weak and faint to have kind, sympathizing hand smooth your pillows Such work her hand was swift to do.
 The poor will miss her sympathizing heart and helping hand. If giving to the poor is lending to the Lord, she hath found large store of loaned articles waiting for her. She has no thought of exacting them. for she has learned from her Master ''to lend hoping for nothing again" Her disinterestedness is the beauty of her work. In thinking of her kind words andways will not many say: Y

THE WORLD FOR 1880

Democrats everywhere should inform themselves carefully alike of the action of their party througho the country anG of the movements of their Repubh. can opponents failuro to do this in 1876 conribu- ted greatly to the loss by the Democracy the fruits of the victory fairly won at the polls.
 The year 1880 promises to be of the most inter- estlng ana important years oi this crowded and eyentful century. It will witness Presidential election which may result in re-estabshing the Government of this country on the principles it's constitutional founders, or in permanently chanSng the relations of the states to the Federal power intelligent man regard SUI an election with in- d1herence. The World, the only daily English newspaper published in the Oity of New York which upholds tn doctrines of constitutional Democracy, will steadl lily represent the Democratic party in this great canvass. It will this in do spirit of servlle partisanshp, but temperatey and hr mly. As anews. paper, The World being the organ of no man. no clique and no interest, will present the fullest and the faires picture it can make of each days passing history in the city, the State the country and the world It will aim hereafter, heretofore, at accu- racy first of all things in all that it publishes. No man, however humble, shall be permitted truly to complain that he has been unjusty dealt with in the columns of The World, No interest, however powerful shall ever be permitted truly boast it can silence the fair criticism of The World
 During the past year The World has seen it's daily circulation trebled and its weekly circulation pushed lar beyond that of any other weekly newspaper the country. This great increase has been won, The World believes by truthfuness enterprise ceaseless activity ill collecting news and unfaltering loyalty to ltsef and to it's readers in dealing with the questions of the day. It is our hope and it will be our enderv- or that The Worlds record for 1880 may be written in the appreciation and the support of many thous- ands more of readers in all parts of this Indisso luble Union of Indestructble States.

 And deep this truth impressed my mind, Thro' all his works abroad, The heart benevolent and kind, The most resembles God

"And deep this truth impressed my mind,
 Thro' all his works abroad,
 The heart benevolent and kind,
 The most, resembles God"
 We learn much by earthly resemblances, The evidence of filial relations is often carried in the countenance and we trace even in re- mote species-species of different climes- some resemblances though they be faint. To be like God speaks of spiritual involution that has set to work an evolution which shall perfect the similitude. {" It doth not yet ap- pear what we shall be i; but we know that when he shall appear we shall be like him for we shall see him as he is." .-st
 We know that Christian kindness and love shall evolve into perfect similitude between the Father of love and his loving children.
 s'what surmounts the reach
 Of human sense, we must deineate so
 By like ming spiritual to corporeai forms,
 AS may express them best though what if earth Be but the shadow of heaven, and things therein Each to other like, more than on earth IS though.
 The death of Mrs. Andrew was almost tragic: She had been four months away vis- iting friends. During this time, to put it in her own words, she had not seen an unhappy hour" Now this implies that her healthI was good, the friends she met congenlal, and the flow of her spirits fresh and youthful. She returns and with elastic step crosses the door sill of her loved home and. in four days is dead. Happy was it that she reached her earthly house before she went to her heavenly home. Four days only, was she in the river supported by kind physician and friends, from thls side, and angels from the other. Then she set foot on the solid land of the country that lieth out of sight. The waves of the riy- CT indeed ran high-unusually high; but the passage was short, to that shore beyond whose strand the waves never dash and whose bow CTS the tempests never reach.
 It appears that her homeward journey was longer than her husbands. So she stopped a few days at the homestead and then went on. This has left him sad and lonely. He will miss her and learn everyday more and more what she was to him. - e,yTTf , say tn.

 MIR. EDIToR.-St. Valentines day has come, and gone; and the mails have stood the pres. sure. In fact that divinity is less populartha formerly, and missives, tender and otherwise, circulated less freely. Not scurrilous one have we seen, but some beautiful and one valuable one have found their way to this house. A young lady received one from New York in the form of an album, containing ex, quisite pictures of roses and lilies, and some sentimental poetry. But mine-it was simply an envelope containing valuable thread lace barbe, which was brought-not sent by mail by about thirty friends, last evening.
