/" Ring out the Old"

Last night our old City Council
met for the last time on earth, and
We purpose to cali the attention OF
our readers to few Of their acts
during the past year, to show the
select few that continually carp a,
them Tor not doing what they were
elected to do, that they are wrong.
We have glanced at the platform on
which they were elected, and find
that they have fulfilled their pledg
es by levying an advalorum tax,
which will bring into the Town
Treasury some $4,000. They have
made numerous improvements on
our side-walks; they have filed
up the Lake in front Of the Court
house, have put up new and elegant
lamps all over the, town. We have
generally had good order, except
on one occasion when riot was
threatened, which was promptly
suppressed by Mayor Liston and
his AIDS.

bills against the town nothing of
interest was transacted, the meet.

Heinz was IN ST. Louis we don't

AYERS CATHARTIo PILLS are the best Of all pur-
gatyes for family use. They are the product OF
long, laborious and successful chemical investi-
CATION, and their extensive use, by Physicians In
their practice, and by all civilized nations, proves
them the best and most eifectual purgative Pill
that medical science can devise. Being purely
vegetable, no harm can arise from their use. In
intrinsic value and curative powers other pills
can be compared with them, and every person,
knowing their virtues, will employ them when
needed. They keep the system in perfect order,
and maintain in healthy action the whole ma.
chincry of life. Mild, searching and efectual,
they are specially adapted to the needs Of the d-
gestve apparatus, arrangements OF which they
prevent and cure, If timely taken. They are the
best and safest physic to employ for children and
constitutions, where mild but etluc.
