Oh,MyBaCk!

That's a common express
sion and has a world of
meaning. How much suf-
fering is summed up in it.
The singular thing about
it is, that pain in the back
is occasioned by so many
things. May be caused by
kidney disease, liver com
plant, consumption, cold,
rheumatism, dyspepsia, over
work, nervous debility, &c.
Whatever the cause, don't
neglect it. Something is
wrong and needs prompt
attention. No medicine has
yet been discovered that
will so quickly and surely
cure such diseases as
Browns IRON BIFTERs, and
it does this by commencing
at the foundation, and max
ing the blood pure and rich.
VIM. P. Marshall, Of Logans.

has for many years been trou-
bled from pain in her back
and general debility incident
to her sex. She has taken one
bottle of Browns Iron Bitters,
and can truthfully say that
she has been SO much benehted
that she pronounces il the
only remedy Of many medi-
cines she has tried"

"A dispatch in the Iimes-Demo-
GRAFT a few days ago, from Washing
ton, stating that the appointment of a
postmaster at Lake Charles would be
in the hands of the president after the
first of January, caused little ripple
of excitement on the principal streets.
A salary Of 81 500 year is not to be
sneezed at, and immediately petitions
began to circulate for signatures. We
we're shown at Least two petitions and
plenty of names were on them, some
of the signers doubtless imagining that
their signatures, With the beautiful
scrawls and fourishes underneath, set
tied the business. It is reported,
however, that certain party who cir
culated 20 petition viii draw the prize.
The present postmaster thought, and
thinks yet, that he is secure in his po-
sition, and but for the effort made by
others to get the place, would not have
taken any steps to have himself ap-
pointed; he is strongly endorsed by
the business men and some of the
prominent republicans. The Echo
doesn't propose 10 take sides in the
matter, aad IS the presidents name is
not on cur subscription books it is
possible he would never know it if we
did. nnlens VIC send him marked CODY.

THAT grand old Democratic
send Nome But Good men.
Nashville Banner.

Democracy is face to face with
the last struggle for the settlement
OF this issue. 1t is now time that
Democracy bent every energy to
settle it in accordance with truth
and right, to retire its Bourbon ele-
ments, to put forward its progress
sive men, to send to the party Con-
vention and to the Legislature and
to place in the executive place the
very best men in the State. Let
but the best men in every county,
the ruost intelligent, the men of
highest business capacity, the hon.
est and thinking men of the State,
assemble, and we have not the
slightest idea but that this era of
condemning noble past will come
to a speedy end. The Democracy
of every county should see to it that
such men and no others are sent.
Let the people be warned that
there are great many in this State
with axes to grind, men with no
great amount of Democracy but an
exaggerated expression of affection
for Democracy, who will be anX-
iously seeking for delegates let
them be rebuked. What DemOc-
racy needs is its honest, common
sense, plain intelligence, its best
business capacity, its progressive
men, its live men, imbued with a
determination to make of DemOcra-
cy live party and to send all fossil
leadership and Bourbon thought to
the rear,

After May the first, only one sa-
loon will remain in Waverly and
that one will be at the depot. Less
than two months ago there were
three in town and one at the Depot.
Thus it will be seen that the efforts
of our citizens to remove these
curses have not been unavailing.
Formerly it seemed to be popular
thing to sell whiskey in this COM
munity but since the tide of pub
lie opinion has justly turned against
it our salOOnists have acquiesced in
the desire of the majority of our
best citizens and have quit the bust
ness. This is cOmmendable ac-
ton on their part which we are
glad to note. U0Uerty Journal.

Adjournment oE Congress.

1t is said that many Congressman
are already anXiously discussing
the question of adjournment though
scarcely an impression has yet been
made on the mass of legislation
awaiting definite action. Consid-
ering the character of the rules now
in force, and the opportunities they
afford for defeating the will of the
majority, the work of Congress is
pretty well advanced. The amount
before it is, however, something
stupenduOus enough to keep it busy
till Christmas if it was of a mind
to keep in session so long. The
coming election now occupies the
thoughts of members who are in
tent on mending their political
fences than attending the duties of
law-making. If Congress met, as
it should, the first winter after the
election of members, instead of the
second, it's work would progress to
much better advantage, being I'M
embarrassed by the uneasiness
which an impending struggle for
nomination and reelection entails
upon those who have it in charge.

The New Comet.

From corrected data, prepared by
those in charge of the Nautical Al
manac, it is learned that the new
comets nearest approach to the
earth will be in the latter part of
May. The comet will reach its
perihelion on June II. 1t will not
be visabIe 70 the naked eye before
10th of May. 1t gives indications
of being very large. 1t will first APP
pear in the north: about thirty de-
grees above the horizon, about eight
O'clock in the evening. The in
crease of brilliancy will probably
be very marked from May 25th to
June 18th, but the comet will prob
ably be lost To sight in the sunlight
about June 10th, and will be visa
bic only in the southern hemisphere.
During the first week-of June it
should present fine appearance in
the northwestern sky after sunset,
if present indications are to be relied
upon.

The RkOad Law.
CFrcm our regular Correspondent.)

The Road Law is before the Leg
islature for amendment and it is
sincerely to be hoped that body will
in its wisdom so amend and rectify
its defects as to make it IN practice,
what it is already in theory, a good
and wise measure for the substantial
improvement of our country roads.
There is nothing that adds so much
to the general welfare and prosper
ity of State as an efficient system
of public roads. On this subject the
Memphis Appeal sensibly says:
1t is singular to remark how men,
and often shrewd business men too,
will, to avoid spending money in
one way, spend twice as much in
another. A striking instance of this
odd description of economy is seen
in the case of our country roads.
Farmers and others will whine like
whipped spaniels over paying rate
for good, substantial road repair,
who submit without a wry face to
paw for wagons worn out years be-
fore they should be, and mules
worn down in their prime through
bad roads, beside submitting to the
loss of time and injury to their bust,
ness that comes from inability to
haul through the mud and rutS and
holes that exist in the roads about
them. If those who live where such
roads are tolerated were to enter in
a book the loss to business, the loss
of mule service, the damage to wag-
on and harness, beside the personal
discomfort to themselves and fami- |
~, and add all up on one side the
account, then put down the amount
of a road tax that would give them
good roads all the year round, that
would add to the value of their |
property, and encourage immigrants
to settle in their neighborhOOd-
would they not blush for the short /
sighted policy they and their whole /
county was pursuing? The Legis-
lature is now in session, and if any |
thing is required TO make the coun-
ty road law more efficient that leg
islation should be secured. Our |
people have had enough of reverses,
and an era of prosperity is evident
ly longed for. TO secure prosperity,
good roads, facility of movement, is
an essential requisite.
