Wilmington, DELI Daily Republican. /

Mrs. Adam Grubb, 231 Walnut street.
has been a great sufferer for a number
of years from extreme pain in the feet,
something like rheumatism. She was
also very much troubled with corns and
bunions 1t was with great difficulty
that she could walk, and sometimes
when she would visit her husbands
shoe store or any of her children, she
could not get home again without assist
ance, and often when she was walking
along the streets she would be seized
with such acute pain that she was COM
PEELED to stop in at the neighbors on
the way until she got better. Some two
weeks ago she heard of the wonderful
cures St. Jacobs Oil was effecting, and
she at once commenced to use it and
experienced great relief Immediately.
The pains have left her feet and ankles
and the Inflammation has left the corns
and bunions. She is now tripping up
to her husbands shoe store and out to
see her children without experiencing
any pain.

Labor Saving.

The demand of the people for an
easy method of preparing Kidney
Wort has induced the proprietors, the
we'll known wholesale druggists, Wells,
Richardson & Co., of Burlington, VT,
to prepare it for sale in liquid form as
well as in dry form. 1t saves all the
labor of preparing, and as it is equally
efficient it is preferred by many per
sons. Kidney-Wort always and every
where proves itself a perfect remedy.

Natures Cathartic.

No medicine is needed to keep the bowels in
order long as natures catharuc, the bile, flows
freely and regularly from Its source in the liver,
and is of the right strength and quality. But the
great hillary gland is easily diordered and the
consequences of its Irregularities are serious. To
bring it back to its natural condition when thus
affected, Hostetters Stomach Bitters should be
taken at least twice day until the desired object
is obtained Constipation is due to a scant supply
of bile, to a lack of the stimulating element in
that fluid. In either case mere purgation is use
less. The liver must be compelled to yield the
supply of bile necessary to remove the waste mat
ter from the system at least once in twenty-four
hours before a radical cure of costiveness can be
accomplished. Hostetter's Bitters produces this
effect. It's action upon the stomach and liver is
direct and salutary, and through these organs it
regulates and invigorates the whole frame.

ers ready for use. Then they threw
some stones through the windows to
awaken Mulloch. He colly appeared at
the door with an axe across his shoul-

up and take me. But you'll have to

1t seems that the real popular ma.
jo-ity for Garfield over Hancock or
Hancock over Garfield is hard to arrive
at. Different tables have been pub
lished by as many different paF ers,
one Of them showing that Garfield had
q plurality of 8, GOO over Hancock, and
another Democratic paper showing
that Hancock had 5000 plurality over
Garfield. The Chicago Inter Ocean,
looks at the tables and says neither Of
them is right but publishes table
compiled by committee Of Congress
men at Washington, the figures Of
which were obtained from the Secretary
of each State. Ia this table the total
vote is placed at 9,24l, ,s36, of which
Garfield received 4 AGO, ,249, Hancock
4,453, ,438, Weaver, 30I993 and scat
tering 1858. THIS puts Garfield
6,75l ahead of Hancock, but the Inter
Ocean claims that there is a mistake
in the return from Kansas by which
Garfield received 6,023 votes, Hancock
2,8S4 and Weaver 1857. If this is
allowed the total vote would be 9 ,25l,
496, and Garfeld's plurality would rise
to $3.50. The Congressional tables
place Hancock's majority in Alabama
Lo7isians, Mississippi and South Caro-
lima little above $4,000. AS it il
we'll known that at a moderate calcu
laticn, there is in these four States ,
Republican majority of $1,000, an,
at least 200, 900 votes we're Suppressed

Stirring Railroad Liquidation.

stirring Railroad LegislatiOn'
Light is beginning to shine In upon
the railroad legislation at ths state
capital, and with it comes the well
foreshadowed fast that there will be an
opposition line from Baltimore through
Wilmington to PhilsGelpkis. The Bal
timore and Ohio railroad, which Is the
party most concerned, must have q
through line to New York or else be
left to a great disadvantage in compel
ing with the other leading lines for the
carrying trade. Wilmington falls on
the line, or rather the line falls to
Wilmington, and hence the bill offered
by Mr.. Pilling to charter new rail-
road line extending from the neighbor
hood OF Claymont, on the Pennsylva
mia and Delaware line, across to the
Maryland and Delaware line near New.
ark. As this will Affect the carrying
trade Of the Philadelphia, Wilmington
and Baltimore railroad, developments
are anxiously awaited to see what &C
tion that read will take upon the sub
iect. The bill introduced by Mr.. Pill
ling, and the amendment offered to the
charter Of the Delaware Western road
furnishing two strings to the Baiti-
more and Ohio kite, SO that if one
breaks the company can fall back on
the other. The amendment TO the
charter Of the Delaware Western pro
Vides for the extension of that road to
the Pennsylvania line, and the con-
struction OF branch from some conve-
nient point to the Maryland line in the
vicinity of Newark, while Mr.. PillinE's
provides for new line right straight
across the curved end OF the State, re-
gardless Of other existing lines of rail
road. Whatever may be said, it can.
not be denied that there is railroad
music in the cir which portends pros
psrity to Wilmington. We emphati
cally live in railroad age.
