The following Is from the Bucks Co.
Mirror: 1.-THE oft quoted expression
There Is no one so great that greater
cannot be found, would seem to apply as
we'll to fowls as to man. In our last
issue we stated that Plumstead hen
produced eggs of which it required only
six to weigh 1ss ounces. Hardly had the
paper in which the item was printed be-
come dry, when we received note from
OK County Commissioner A. ] Solomon,
of New Hope, informing US that he has a
hen that beats the Plumstead hen all
hollow. This is evidently the case, for
with tho note we received an egg Of
monstrous proportions, which Mr.. Solo
mon assures us Is but sample of many
Others, of which six weigh 2ls ounces,
and they are not double yolks either. The
only way In which we can account for not
receiving half dozen Of the eggs is the
probable refusal Of the stage driver to
carry them, as 1t would necessitate his
procuring a heavier vehicle. Mr.. 8. has
long been known as the proprietor Of one
of the best conducted hotels in the county,
but that he should also be the owner of
the champion hen In the county Is too
much glory for one man."

Emma Jones Again.

On Thursday Emma Virginia Jones
Shaw, who has recently been re-
leased from New Castle jail was again
before th2 n ToT, charged by Mr.. IL.
Wilson " the steamer Wilmington,
with being very drunk, and acting in a
Idisord9rly manner on the boat. Mr..
Wilson testified that within tho last
few days Emma has been coming on
board tho Wilmington, in an intoxi-
Gated condition, and insulting the pas
senger3. He did not wish to have her
arrested, but he could not tolerate the
nuisance any longer.
As soop as Emma was brought IN the
dock, she commenced to beg the Mayor
to let her Off, and said that all her
trouble came from the love Of drink.
She promised If the Mayor would let
her off this time, she would never go on
the boat again; she would leave town on
the first train and never return, and
falling on her knees called Heaven to
witness that she would meyer drink an
other drop. She also offered to bet the
Mayor $100 that if he would let her 70,
lie would never see her again. 1t would
nave been d safe bet for the Mayor to
take, but he declined to invest.
She concluded her harapgue with
81 doG't want TO go to Jail again; please
don't send me to jail ; L lost all my
clothes the last time was there. All
this trouble has come on me since |
married that man" BY this time the
Mayor had finished entering the case
on the docket, and he announced "S2
and COsts.
Emma gave look of ofdisgust, and as

Company, the report of the special

The committee also advise the holding
Of exhibitions in various places of Eng

with a view to popularizing Irish man
ufacturos, and also urge the form alton
Of new association to assist mauufac-

vasarres of am Onro Farmer.

Fifty years ago John Eicholtz went
from Penn sylvania to Ohio with cap
ital of TWO silver hAlf-dOllars, bequeath-
ed to him by a disappearing father.
The boy left home vowing that he
would become the richest Eicholtz liv-
ing, and to that end he toiled like a
slave and lived like miser. He has
lust died at Urbana worth about SlOO,-
600, and he might have accumulated
more more if ne had possessed as much
common sense as industry and frugal
ity. During the last twenty years he
had been absorbed in the idea that 1t
was folly to sell wheat, for whatever
the price might be at any particular
time, az it was sure to go higher. Ac-
cordingly he has been perpetually hold"
ing for RISE" and the result Is that
thousands OF bushels are now stored
in and around his barn, much of i ut
terly worthless through decay. This
season he predicted a genera failure OF
the wheat crop throughout tho North
west, and enormous prices Ia COnSe-
uuence. Acting on this belief he re-
fused to SOW any grain, for the reason
that he should need all his teams to
haul his old stock to market and
couldn't be bothered with crops in the
tield. His family are said to be bear
ing the aflictlon Of bis death with
much fortitude and cOmDosure, intend
ing when time has assuaged their grief
to live as other people do.

John q. whittier ON the Bi.Uonten

In regard to the Bi.Ceutennial
Celebration of the landing of Penn in
Philadelphia this month, John G.
Whittier writes: II trust that, Quaker
as l am, have sufficient liberality
to make all due allowance for the taste
and inclinatiOns of those who do not
share my scruples and convictions, but
it seems to me that there should be
something OF fitness in this celebration
something consistent with the char
acter and views of the world-honored
founder OF Pennsylvania.
~ can very well understand that the
task of the Committee of Arrangements
is n difficult one. Perhaps no plan
which could b0 devised would be
entirely satisfactory. | would not
criticise the one adopted too severely,
yet | cannot but regard it as great
mistake. should, of course, be sorry
to see anything like the nonsense and
absurdity Of an Italian Carnival OF Il
New Orleans festival of unreasOu, in
tile celebration of the founding of A
Christian Commonwealth, but my main
objection is to the proposed display OF
military parades. Is it not possible
that this part of the programme may be
changed? Waving altogether the
question OF any Difference to the feel
iugs and principles OF the religious
society to whom the memory OF
william Penn is especially precious, it
strikes me that something is due to the
truth of history and to that "HOly
Experiment" of Christian Statesman
ship, which God has abundantly ble9t in
the prosperity Of the great Common
wealth whose sure foundations were laid
upon the precepts of the Prince OF
Peace"

plants, when in reality 1t was Bright s
Disease of tho Kidneys. Few physi-
clans, and fewer people, realize the ex-
tent of this disease or its dangerous
and insidious nature. 1t steals into
the system like thief, manifests its
presence by the commOnest symptoms,
and fastens itself upon the constitution
before the victim Is aware. 1t is near
ly as hereditary as consumption, quite
as common and fully as fatal. Eutire
families, inheriting it from their an
cestors, have died, and yet none
OF the number knew or realized the
mysterious po ower which was removing
them.
Instead of common symptoms it often
shows none whatever, but brings death
suddenly, and as such is usually sup.
posed to be heart disease. AS ono who
has suffered, and knows by bitter ex-
perience what he says, implOre every
one who reads these words not to ne
glect the slightest symptoms Of Kidney
difficulty. Certain agony and possible
death will be the sHre result of such
neglect, and no one can afford to haz-
ard such chances,
am aware that such an unqualified
statement as this, coming from me,
known asi am throughout the entire
land as practitioner and lecturer,
will arouse the surprise and astOnish
all with whom l am acquainted, but
make the foregoing statements based
upon facts which am prepared to pro
duce and truths which l can subStan
