How Thurman Treats Roscoe,


From the gallery, whenever a
general debate is in progress, one wit
nesses some interesting pieces of by
play between senators. and not the
least remarkable is the conduct of
Thurman and Conkling toward each
other whenever occasion offers to bring
them in opposition. 1t has come to
be noticed that Conkling pays Thur
man geat deal of attention, and rarely
fails in a general debate to notice his
remarks and make some allusion to
them. Thurman doesn't reciprocate,
and at times whether Intentionally or
not appears to have most disdainful
feeling for the Utica senator. Thur
man, it is we'll known, is ali habitual
snuff taker, and his bandanna has a
national celebrity. He seems to use it
and his snuff as implements of warfare,
and there is significance in his man
ner Of using them. Playing with his
bandanna, opening and smoothing out
its creases, is signal that he is think
ing of what is going on and meditating
reply. If he smiles the while, know
ing watchers prepare to hear some
thing bitterly sarcastic and cutting.
Taking pinch of snuff and patting
the sides of his gold snuff box, shows
he is indifferent, but, after snuffing, a
sudden and violent blowing of his nose
means defiance and rarely fails to be
followed by war. One movement OF
his is always provocative of laughter,
and he generally makes use of it when
Conkling is talking. Conkling will
arise, and, In his blandest tones allude
to the honorable senator from Ohio,
at which Thurman takes out his box,
and, after gently stroking it, takes a
= pinch of snuff. Conkling is going
ahead in his slow manner, building uE
an argument, and Thurman is ap,
parently unconscious OF what he Is say
. ing until just as Conkling has erected
the structure and is about to make hi
point up goes the bandana, and there
is blast as from a Fiji Islander
conch shell, and between the noise ano
the distraction of attention it causes
the New York Senator'S very fine poin
is lost, and Thurman smiles serenely
shakes out his bandana, coolly fold

A Foolish Mistake.

Don't make the mistake Of ofconfounding
a remedy of acknowledged merit with
the numerous quack medicines that are
now SO common. We speak from exper-
fence when we say that Parksr's Ginger
Tonic is a sterling health restorative and
will do all that is claimed for it. We
have used it ourselves with the happiest
results for Rheumatism and when worn
out by overwork. See adv.-Tintes.

The Almighty Dollar!
"The many have too fer, and the fe,c
Too mdny."

"The many hare too fe,c, and the te,c
Too many"
What is the use of wasting dollar
when you can save itY
Big prices will not do in these times
when even the wealthy cannot afford
to waste their money, and the poor
require double duty of every dollar
and every penny.
Not by favor, but by merit alone
will we maintain and increase our
unrivaled reputation.
We deal in good Goods and not
trash, and believe the masses will pa.
tronize that house that sells the best
Goods for the least money.
Buy for cash and at one price.
Who can tell the waste of money
when you get your goods of houses
that buy and sell on long time!
This is the music and these the
prices that crowd our store, whilst
other merchants sleep on their coun.
tiers, little dreaming of the day Of dis.
aster and ruin awaiting all who buy
on long time and sell on longer; who
pay big prices, and sell at figures that
no people can afford to pay.

81 900 year from the literary fund. The
proprietors Of the Times refused to allow Mr..
Nelson to accept the gift, but in lieu Of 1t
they added ESQ year to his salary. Mr..
