w. w. Farmer is an exception TO the
generality of officcholdcrs-f few Of
whom, it isithc saying, die, and none
resign. He yesterday filed his resig-
nation as Judge of the Court of APP
pcals, Second Circuit, at the Governors
office, and will at once resume the
practice fof the law, as being much
moro compatible with his personal
comfort and worldly welfare. AS d
judge he found himself compelled to
be absent from home about eight
months of the year, all the time nnder
heavy expense, for which he received
pay from the State in warrants, at the
rate of $4,000 per annum. The Judge
loves his country, and in her hour of
peed has ever been found ready to
serve her, but in these dull piping
times of peace, thinks it behoovcs him
to look after the interests of himself
and family little more closely and
let other patriots mount guard awhile
over the peoples liberties.-[N. 0.

The elaims Of DR. Ungcr for rem
cdy for curing intcnperancc would
seem to DO Justified, if We may rely
upon as good authority aslthe Chicago
Tribune for the evidence. MIR. Joseph
Medill, the editor, Is said to be a
strong indorscr Of the new renaedy,
and from the editorial Communications
Of it IN the columns Of the Tribune We
conclude the remedy has produced
some benefit TO the community already.
u is claimed that The doctor has cured
2s,000 persons of the worst form Of
intcmperance with it, and that this is
the first remedy ever discovered that
kills the disease and the inclination to
drink at one and the same time.
REMEDY.--Take one pound of best,
fresh, quill red Peruvian bark, powder
it, and soak it III one pint Of diluted
alcohol. Afterward strain and eyapo-
rate it down TO half pint. Directions
for its use: Dose---a teaspoonful every
three hours the first and second day,
and occasionally moisten tile tongue
between the doses. 1t acts like qui-
nine, and the patient can tell by
headache If he is getting too much.
The third day take as previous, but
reduce the dose to onc-half teaspoon
full. Afterward reduce the dose TO fif-
teen drops, and then down to ten, and
then down to five drops. To make
cure, it takes from five to fifteen days,
and in extreme cases thirty days.
Seven days are about the average in
which cure can be effected.
The above remedy is. worth trial,
but there is q better and cheaper one,
and it does not require a visit TO the
drug store. 1t is this--let Intoxicating
liquor alone. Wr a4t8

1t is astonishing how many adyo-
Gates there are of the doctrine that we
are now seeing two comets, smaller
one in the evening in the northwest,
with its tail turned towards the west,
and larger one late at night, with its
tail turned in entirely the opposite di-
rection. All the newspapers, scientists
and astronomers agree that there is but
one comet to be seen at present; that
its different position at different times
in the heavens is due to the revolution
Of the earth; its apparent change in
intensity and brightness is due to the
fact that the comet is first seen when
some glimmer of the sunlight yet APP
pears, and later, in the full obscurity
of night. As for the apparent change
in the position of the tail, that is due
to the change in the position of the
earth. The comets tail appears to be
constantly changing and moving
around the nnclcns like the hands Of
clock. OF course the tail does
nothing of the kind, but simply APP
pears to do SO as we change tho posi-
ton in whichlwe see it. N. o. Dem
ocrat.

the following: At the burial this
evening of the infant daughter of Capt.
JOG Roland, it was observed that a dog
that had been allowed to play with the
child while alive, had followed the re-
mains to the grave, and while arrange
ments were being made for the inter
incnt Of the baby, the dog hung around
the corpse, moaning most pitcously
and otherwise exhibiting its grief, and
when the grave was opened it jumped
in and refused to come out for coaxing
or scolding. AT last the dog was tied
with rope and taken from the ground
and secured to tree to prevent its
going into the grave again. After the
burial rites were performed, and the
dog was approached to be turned loose,
it was found dead.
