GENERAL OPTION LAw.-The follow.
ing resolution, offered by Mr.. Stubbs
was adopted in the House of Delegates
last Thursday:
Whereas the question local-optian is
now becoming one of interest to the
people of Virginias and whereas petit
lions are now before the Legislature
from aany counties in Virginia pray
ing for the passage of local laws grant
ing the privilege OF submitting TO the
qualified voters of said counties the
question of "for' or".gairst" license;
and whereas a general local-option
law well guarded with proper legal res
tric.ions will not be injurious to any
particular county, locality. or commu-
nifty, and will particularly answer the
object of every county. locality, or csm-
munity desiring the privilege of voting;
therefore
RESOLVED By the House of Delegates,
That the Committee on Finance inquire
into the expediency of preparing and
reporting B. bill having for its object a
general local option law applicable alike
to each county or corporation desiring
to have the question of local-option
submitted to the qualified voters.

- WeNs5oro. Pa, January 17.-Willis
Cass. son of wealthy citizen of Mans
field, was married on Christmas Day to
Mertie Cleveland, a member of an
other Tioga county family. A few
days ago they went on visit to the
brides father, at Frost Settlement. A
chicken was to be killed for dinner.
Mr.. Cleveland took dawn his rife to
shoot one, and young Cass asked his
father il .aw to let him do the shoot
ing lie took the gun and went out
into the yard. His bride stood at the
window looking at him. "Shoot the
big one, WILL" she shouted to him, az
the chickens were huddled together.
Cass laid the gun down and tossed q
stone among them to scatter them. He
then picked up the rifle by the muzzle
and drew it toward him. The motion
knocked ths hamnef doYn on the cap
and the gun was discharged, the tall
crashing through the bridegroom's
head, killing him almost instantly. He
was twenty years old.

"The Christian Religion" by Prof Geo. T.
Fisher of the Yale Divinity School, whose

we'll known. comes to the defence ofthe Chris
tian RELIGION against the attacks OF modern
doubt and infidelity. No ADLER or more emil
nent advocate for the orthodox 1alth c"uid De
summoned into the controversy that mas late
ly been waged on this high theme. and Ills not
too much to say that Prof. Fisher justihes ev-
cry expectation by the vigor and clearness with
which he handles the subject. He disclaims.
however, the position of debator, and makes
no direct reference to Col. IngersolPs assaults,
although he necessarily deals with the oDJec-
lions SO brilliantly and audaciously presented
by that doughty combatant. He proceeds IN q
very orderly manner to maintain q series Of
positions in regard to the origin. essential
character and beneficent effects of the Chris
tian faith, which are intended in themselves
to furnish the answer to all objections and
cavils.

SPECIAL NOTICES,


IL mankind; but what is life worth, when
health has flown forever. To suffer with dis
ease. to lie upon a sick bed, to bear endless
pains, to endure the tortures of fever, are in
themselves worse than death: for it has been
appointed unto man once to die. If people
could be induced to attack all diseases on their
first appearance, and to ply them regularly till
exterminated, with proper remedies, the grave
would be robbed Of many Of Its victims, and
human life be heightened to a good old age.-
Let our readers, then, Keep watch over their
appetites and digestion, and when either fail

purifier of blood and restorer of strength
These Bitters are peculiarly adapted to the
spring and summer diseases OF the Southern
