PILFS PILES. PILES! 2 Sure Cure Found at Last! No
 One need Suffer

A sure Cure for Blind, Bleeding, Itch ing and Liberated Piles has been discov- cred by pr. Williams, Gan Indian remedy, called Ur Williams Indian Ointment. A single box has cnred the worst chronic Cd ,es of 25 or 50 IearS standing. NU One need suffer five minutes after applying this wonderfully soothing medicine. Lo- tions instruments and electuaries do more harm thdn good. Williams Ointment nbSOrbs the tumOrs, allays the intense itching, (particularly at night, after get ting warm in bed,) acts as a rOultice, gives instant and painless relief, and is prepared only for Piles. itching of the private parts, and f1r nothing else.
 Read what the Hon. J M. Coffinberry of Cleveland says about Dr. Williams h. dlan Pile Ointment: have used scores of Pile cures. and it affords me pleasure to say that I have never found anything which gave snch immediate and perma- nent relief as Dr. Williams Indian Oint- ment.

EDITOR SENTINEL:-Coola and pleasant weather for working, since last hebdom- abal report, and advantage has qeen talk en to energetically push the various properties now undergoing development. "There is some sort of goodness in things evil,
 Would men observingly distil it out" We cannot but experience feeling of satisfaction that our isolated position from verdant wales and babbling brooks, insures us from the dreadful raids of the marauding aboriginal: and, by the way, would it not be an excellent move to re- turn the present Falstaffian force of sol diers CD to parade duty, and move the ''coIOred troops" iHto the field?

 THE REMNANT, Pending the arrival oi a steam hoisting plant for the 15U foot shaft on this re- markahle mine, sIuking has been sus- pended, and the shaft is being cribb d. This looks very much as if there was something in the bottom of that vertical | shaft besides country rock, particularly as visitors ale not permitted to examine, and tiiere is solemn air of secrecy about 1 Jos anatgoS of Pacific Jity.

mented last night by a large assemblage
in the County Court room to hear
him speak, for, though the meeting
was only advertised for a few hours
and no music had been provided, the
room was filed with most intelligent
class of voters. Colonel Young has
been making a most vigorous and
effective canvass as is shown by the
interest manifested whenever he is an
nounced to speak and he is gaining
strength every day. He will speak
again tonight in the First ward, when
the voters Of that Democratic strong
hold will no doubt be out in full

Mr.. Morgan j. Kelly has made a
careful canvass of the county, and
everywhere met with a most cordial
reception. Mr.. Kelly possesses the
qualities to constitute a worthy repre-
sentative. He is intelligent, indus
trious, sober and agreeable. His long
experience in mercantile affairs will
enable him to represent this city with
peculiar fitness, and he understands
the wants Of the people Of all classes
When Ve consider the number of
wealthy establishments which have
been compelled through the oppressive
and unnecessary taxation to discon-
tinue business in this city and move
away, it is, under such circumstances,
gratifying to see young gentleman
of Mr.. Kelly's business experience
resolve to assist in correcting the
evils arising from unwise legislation.
Mr.. Kelly is most Fortunate as a can
didats for the Legislature, inasmuch
as he has the unanimous Endorsement
Of his Irish fellow citizens, many Of
whom are, on his account, more
earnestly engaged in laboriug for he
success of the entire Democratic
ticket than perhaps ever before in
any contest. His character has ever
been that of friend in distress, and
in the halls Of legislation he cannot
fail to make a useful and an infuen.
