per barrel in the price of pork at Chicago
upon receipt of the news that France had
forbidden the importation Of American hog
products into that country. It is estimated
that the prohibition will cause loss of So, :
OO0, 900 upon stock in that city alone, to say
nothing Of that stored throughout the coun.
try. The embargo was very unexpected,
and took dealers greatly by surprise.

nale,s Honey Of Horehouud and rar,

For the cure of Coughs, Colds, Influ-
enza, Hoarseness, Difficult Breathing,
and all affections of the Throat and
Lungs, leading to Consumption. This
sovereign remedy is compounded from
the favorite receipt Of an illustrious
physician and chemist, who for many
yeays used it with the most complete
success in his extensive private practice.
He had long been profoundly impressed
with the wonderful virtue of the plant
Horehound, in union with the cleansing
and healing properties of Tar. extracted
from the life principle Of the forest tree
Abies Balsamea, or Balm Of Gilead.
For years he was bafiled in his attempts
TO blend these two great medicinal
forces into such q union that the origi-
nal power Of each would be preserved,
the disagreeable qualities of common
tar removed, and the price Of the COM
pound be within the reach Of all. At
last, afser a long course of difficult
chemical experiments, he found that by
adding to those five other Ingredients,
each one valuable by itself, he not only
obtained the desired results, but greatly
increased the curative power OF the
compound. This, having been thor.
oughly tested by practice, is now
offered to the general public as q safe,
pleasant and infallible remedy. Price

A sumptuous repast was served at II

although she did not take the credit due
the young ladies, who made several de-

The young men who are keeping

What Happened at the:Court House
Yesterday.


Yesterday was Inauguration day
for the new county officers, and
at the same time, the occasion up
on which some of the old officers step
ped "down and out.n
The old board Of county commission
ers convened at about eleven o'clock for
the purpose of finishing up their bust
ness, and remained in session until
about 3 O'Clock in the afternoon. The
business which they transacted con-
sisted Of examining the books and &C
counts Of the different officers for the
past year, and everything was found to
be correct to the very letter. After
the old board had adjoured sine die, the
new board of commissioners consisting
of Messrs. N. Robertson, Thos. Swan
and II. B. Kelley took the oath of Office
and proceeded to organize. N. Rober-
son esq. was elected rs the chairman of
the board, and the matter of the APP
proval Of the bonds Of the county Off
GERS elect, was taken up. The bonds
Of the following officers were examined
and approved, and the parties mention
cd took the oath Of office.
S. X. Sharpless, sheriff; Isaac Berg
man. treasurer and judge of probate;
G. N. Potter, county attorney; J. X.
jeffrey, county clerk; j. Y. Cowhick,

Rawhide Butes; b. A. Hart. justice of
the peace, Fl. Laramie. Some other
minor officers from other precincts
were also confirmed. W. G. Prevines
as surveyor, was not present and 1t is
somewhat uncertain as to whether he
is in or out OF Office. After the new
board had disposed Of the matter of the
approval of the official bonds, ETC., the
question Of designating the official pa
per of the county was brought up, and
on motion Of Commissioner Thos.
Swan, the LEADER was unanimously
declared the official paper of Laramie
county. Several other matters were
also attened to, after which the board
adjourned until this a. m. Mt 10 O'Clock.
Thus the Inauguration of our new
county officers was effected and the
LEADER extends its best wisheslto
each and all Of them in the full belief
that the future will disclose the fact
that the people of the county have not
reposed their confidence in them in
vain.
