FIRE

LOUISVILLE, Aug 20.-The Courier
Journal special from Richmond, Ky, says
a fire broke out at o'clock last night in
Irvine, county seat of Estill, and destroy
ed s.ll the business portion of that place
except three stores. The fire was evidently
abe work of an incendiary, as there had
been no fire in the work room for three
wears. The loss is 100000 or $75,0O0,
with but little insurance. 1t is feared that
the town will be long time in rebuilding.
A special to the same paper from Prince
ton, Ky, says lightning struck in Barretts-
vile, negro suburb of Princeton, last
evening, killing an aged negro woman
named Betsey Stokes, and crippling lit
tie negro boy. The woman was crossing
the street at the time and was killed

Wicked for Clergymeu.

Il believe it to be all wrong and even
wicked for clergymen or other public men
to be led into giving testimonials to quack
doctors or vile stuffs called medicines, but
when really merltorious article, made OF
valuable remedies known to all, that all
physicians use and trust in daily, we should
freely commend it I therefore cheerfully
and heartily commend Hop Bitters for the
good they have done me and my friends,

Patient.
TO-DAY.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 20. - Unofficial
Executive Mansion, 7:45 a. m. DIR. Bliss
feels much encouraged at the condition in
which he finds the President this morning.
He reports him having passed comfort
able night, sleeping considerable at inter
walls. About z this morning pulse 96 and
temperature apparently about normal.
FIRST BULLETIN
Executive Mansion, $50 a. m.-The
president has passed a quiet night, and
this morning his condition does not differ
materially from what it was Yesterday at
the same hour. The swelling of the parrot
id glands is unchanged, and is free from
pain this morning. His pulse is 9S; tenn
perature 98-4, respiration 18.

D. m.-The President has taken nourish-
ment through the mouth several times to-
day and in considerably larger quantities
In all he has swallowed ten ounces of
koumiss and four ounces of milk cruel,
without any indications of gastric disturb
ance It has not been thought prudent
up to the present time,to give him any 9th
or kind of liquid food, but the juice of
beef steak is being prepared and will be
tried soon. If it is retained and assimilat-
ed, beef juice will henceforth be given ev-
cry day. An enemata was administered
10 the patient this morning of three and q
half ounces Of beef extract with yolk OF
egg.
NOON BULLETIN.
Official Executive Manson, 1880 P. NJ
The president continues to do well. He
is taking liquid food by the mouth in in
creasing quantities and with relish The
nutritive enamata are still successfully
given, but at longer intervals. His pulse
is now 107, temperature 9S, respiration

was looking well and the pus discharged
was of healthy character. After thu
operation of August Sth, the flexible
tube used to wash out the wOunC

quantity of healthy pus came as was be

downward and forward for distance OF
twelve and one-half inches from the exter-
nal surface of the last incision. This ia
cilitates the drainage and cleaning of deep

ty of the broken rib is filling up with

children heard this repeated some

the nursery door, and was about the
first thing they learned to read. 1t
was destined TO become the unswerv-

YOU will never lack friends"
Baby Mills was comfort to every
body about him. When he wanted
candy, and could not have 1t, he
listened to reason, and contented
himself without ii. When Baby
BENTON wanted candy, he cried Tor
it until he got it. Baby Mills took
care of his toys: Baby Benton always
destroyed his in a very briet tlme'
and then made himself SO insistently
disagreeable that, in order to have
peace in the house, little Edward
was persuaded to yield up his play
things to him.
When the children were little
older, George became heavy ex>

of his clothes; consequently he
shone frequently in new ones' which
was not the case with Eddie. The
boys grew apace. Eddie was an in

petitions, 81 would rather you would
not do it"-meaning swimming, skat-
ing, picknicking, berrying, circusing,
and all sorts of things which boys de-
light in. But no answer was sufficient
for George; he had to be humored In
all his desires, or he would carry
them with high hand. Naturally no
boy got more swimming, skating,
berrying, and so forth than he;
no boy ever had better time.
The good Brants did not allow
the boys to play out after nine in
summer evenings; they were sent
to bed at that hour. Eddie honorably
remained, but George usually slipped
out of the window towards ten, and
enjoyed himself till midnight. 1t
seemed impossible to break George
of this bad habit, but the Brants

A lost ship drifting on theade;
No rudder, sails, nor chart #
No compass for aguide.
WITHOUT HOPE.
Borne to uttermost defeat;
No cheering voice to save
From Grant folly's blacklist night,
That pals the shrouded grave.
WITHOUT CHARITY.

With Charity life loves all life,
