PASSAGES OF A JUST slLL-

Notwithstanding the opposition OF
Brumssy, OF Storey. the bill for the
Hsf Of Carhek's bondsmsn passed the
Senate yesterday. and will. doubtless.
become . Law.
Those persons here who are acquainted
With all the circumstances connected with
the Csrrisk case. very generally express
the opinion that the Legislature acted
wisely In passing the hill. For. say they.
IL would most certainly b unfair. after
the plain neglect Of duty Of the County
Commissioner In the matter. to compel
the solvent boadsmsn to pay the full
amount Of Csrrick's ~dsfaloa,ion.
One amusing feature connected with
this matter has been the opposition to
the passage OF the bill By men Who have
nsvsr paid ta1ss here to the amount Of
. dollar. and who certainly could have
had no further interest In its defeat than
the fact that II the Csrrick bopdsmen
should b compelled to pay the amour.
OF dsisleation into the county treasury.
there would be Just that much more
money In sight for them to play for.
Mon Who we're never known to b guided
by principle in public Affairs. but Who
have had the reputation Of lying awake
aight. planning attacks upon public
funds. have been suspioiously ssalous In
their Efforts to defeat this bill.

1.-TWO Great Englishwomen' has drawn
a rejOindor from the author, who, in
answer to the statement that in .imput-
ing humor to Byron he proved himself
to have none, says: s.'Byron, as all the
world knows, was resplendently witty.
So brilliant and abounding was his wit
that it has thrown his humor into the
shade. But he had vein of humor,
true and racy, which was beginning to
show itself as his affections fell Off in his
later time. ! am, willing to rest,the
question on his delineation of 'Suwar-
row. If there is no humor in that I
know not what htlmor is: if it is fine in
humor. as distinguished from wit. then
there may be a lack Of sympathetic per-
ception in my respected, critic. If
there is no humor in Byron's 'Suwar-
row.'I should have difficulty in finding
any in Scottls 'Dalgetty' or Carlyle's

certain situation of which. part OF the

Is compounH of the virtues of sarsapariL
la, stillingia; mandrake, yellow dock, with
the ioaitle of potash and iron, all powerful
blood-rnaking. blood-cleansing, and life-sus-
and most effectuaI Alternative medicine
known or available to the public. The sci
iences of medicine and chemistry have never
prod',ced so valuable remedy, nor one so

ease which arises from impurity of the

1t is folly to experiment with the numer-
GUS low-priced mixtures, of cheap materials,
and without medicinal virtues, offered as
headquarters, while disease becomes more
firmly seated. AYERS SARsAPARILLA is a
medicine of such concentrated curative
power that it is by far the best, cheapest,

scribe it. It has been widely used for forty
years, and has Won the unqualified conf
tlence of millions whom it has benefited.

A Buried Algerian Oity,

London Times1
= French newspapers report the dis.
covery in Algiers, by the arcbeoiogist
M. larry, ofia city which had been en-
tombcd in the sand n. Tary''s atten-
ton had been awakened by the mound
like appearance of the sandy soil,S and
some digging brought to light the nina
rets and upper portion of a mosque.
j, Further excavation lay bare a ter
race, a tower, and abont a dozen
houses, all in excellent preservation.
He reported his discovery to the Gov
lernment- of Algiers. which has under
, taken to have the site thoroughly ex-
plored. The place is in the southern part
of the province, not far from the town
of Ouargla, and exposed 10 the full blast
of the sandy winds from the desert.
Probably a succession of siroccos bear
ing clouds of sand completely filled up
the streets and houses, making the town
uninhabitable, and so drove out the pop
ulation. AT present there is no ground
for conjecture as to the date of the oc-
currence. -fas Fa4 fsss
