PREJUDICE KILLS.

"Eleven years our daughter suffered on a
bed of misery under the care Of several OF
the best and some of the worst physicians,
who gave her disease various names but not
relief. and now she is restored to. us in good
health by as simple a remedy as Hop Bit
tiers, that we had poohooed at for two years,
before using it. We earnestly hope and
pray that no one else will let their sick
suffer as we did on account OF prejudice
against SO good a medicine as Hop Bltters.N

on last Friday, managed by the Monument
tai Association of that place, reached here
at the appointed hour, when a good num-

all then left for the picnic ground. AT the
grounds everything was arranged so as to
add to the comfort OF the merry makers, an
immense arbor was erected, under which
all we're projected from the burning rays OF
sun. After a short rest the excellent brass
band from Jackson, led by Mr.. ]. Schwartz,
commenced discoursing some splendid
dance music and in a few moment a good
number of the picnicers were enjoying them
selves tripping the light, fantastic toe on
the sawdust. After dinner was over
the excursion returned here where the Mon
umentals whiled away the hours until time
for their entertainment.

A false report has i'll some way
become public concerning the atti-
tude of President Arthur toward
,bo senatorial contest in Virginia.
Mr. Gorham communicates with
BiIlv Malone to assure him of the
presidents entire neutrality 50 for
as Virginia politics are concerned
lint does not forget TO mention that
the warmest friendship still exists
be.ween Chester and William. We
hone the president is taking no ac-
tive interest in the contest, further
than any good citizen would, for the
readiuster squabble is not a very
seemly one. There are honorable
men engaged i'll it, but there are
also men whose records are none OF
the best, and this latter class are
making an attempt to foist them
selves upon the state and national
Government. Mr.. Riddlebarger evil
IDENTIFY wishes to make capital for
himsel: by leading the people to be
lieye he is sanctioned by the presi-
dent personally and his adminisrra-
ton. This report, however, Mr..
Arthur contradicts, and ii is a mat
ter of note that he has independence
enough to give the contradiction TO
even a mongrel republican false
hood. Contrary to general expecta-
ton, President Arthur is developing

The New Orleans Times-DCmOcrat
calls for new policy IN relation to
contested elections i'll congress, and
the people generally viii echo the
sentiment. 1t has been the practice
for the government to pay the ex-
nense of contestants and enormous
sums have been taken from the
treasury in this way. There are
seyeral contested cases before the
present congress, and the expense ell
tailed upon the government will be
enormous. fla contestant is proven
TO have no claim to a seat, he should
lose the money the contest costs him,
If he succeeds, and Gusts his oppon-
ent the latter should be compelled
to refund the money he may have
derived from the government, and to
which another man was entitled.
Kellogg's seat has been contested
since 1876, and should the contestant
succeed he will be entitled to all the
hack pay belonging to the position
since the contest was opened, while
Kellogg would walk OF. with an
equal amount.
