THE
Matllushek Upright.
The only Upright Piano which will remain
permanently in tune.

During the past Ave years makers of Piano
Fortes have been making great efforts to pro-
duce an Upright which will. stand our severe
climate. They have used several devices, and
have even tried thut have given it upl double
strong with immense bookings of wood, and
still most of the Upright Pianos have not
proved satisfactory for this reason That the
Tuning, Pins in all of them are placed into a
wooden plank which is wedged up to the iron
plate, and which, at every change of weather,
will shrink or swell, thus causing the piano to
get out OF order and out of tune.
The Opelousas courier., 1882-04-22
TH
UPRIGHT PIANOS,

In this particular, are made with a thick iron
plate drilled to receive wooden bushings nj
which the tuning Plus are placed; thus the
iron pins are held directly IN the tuning plate
and cannot move by any change in the wood
work.
through a strong brass agraffe screwed into
the iron plate, thence across the sounding
board bridge, and is fastened TO a pin at the
other end of the iron plate, thus producing the
MOST SOLID and STRONGEST PIANO
EVER MADE.
In tone, touch, workmanship and general
finish, the Mathushek Upright cannot be ex-
celled, and is now rapidly coming into use,
and it's popularity constantly increases. We
will be very much obliged if you will call and
examine these pianos. We also take old pianos
in exchange at fair value.

COOpER's smut machine sustains u
severe wrench in the recital we else
where print of the loyalty and devotion
to the Union cause which Rev. DR.. Pat
tisOn, now deceased, father Of the pres
ent Democratic candidate for governor,
manifested throughout the rebellion.
The attack on the memory of beloved
clergyman was at best an outrage against
the ordinary decent sense and its mean
ness was enhanced by the sneaking
innuendO resOrted to in the effort to
create the false impression that the dead
divine cherished secession sentiments.
The Republican testimony to the con-
trary, which we publish, is overwhelm.
ing in its conclusiveness and the
little Stalwart organs that have been so
ready to pipe forth their discordant
strains in the attelupt to defame the
dead find their occupation gone and are
put to sad straits in seeking for a weapon
in their present desperate fight for the
bosses. Smut is the poorest kind of am.
munition, and i'm this instance it seems
to have recOiled on its projectors.

The Deadly Dance.

Mir. Heber Donaldson, the dancing
Z Peahyterian of Emlenton, in this state,
has ut last abandoned the battle which
he has fought SO long, SO vigorously, but
withal unsuccessfully. This is the end of
the famous case in which Donaldson, who
had been " sessioned" for going through
the figures of square dance at q social
gathering, carried his appeal up to the
highest judicatory of the church, the
General Assembly, only to have it sent
back to the original tribunal for some
alleged inform8lity in the record. After
the session of the church at Emlenton
had completed the record and reiterated
the previous sentence Donaldson had
announced his determination of again
carrying the matter up through the
church courts until final decision is
reached, but he has reconsidered his de-
cision and will let the matter rest. 1t
seems pity that after this prolonged
disputation We are not to have an au-
thoritative declaration of just where the
church militant in this modern era
stands in its view of the sedate quadrille
and the more festive waltz and polka.
1t would be interesting and instructive
to frisky Presbyterians who are suspect
ed of an inclination towards saltatorial
amusements if they could nave some
definite information on this subject. At
the time the General Assembly sent the
case back to the session for amendment,
it was whispered in some quarters that
the grave and reverend sefgniors of that
most august tribunal simply took this
means of dodging the record but after
tho earnest fight made by lawyer Don
aldson in maintaining the innocence of
his action, 1t would he uncharitable to
suppose that he has been s. bull-dozed''
from his purpose to press the matter to
final determination. Probable he simply
wearied in the battle; and SO festive

HAVOC AMONG THE HOGS,
The Disease which Prevails among Swine Il
lSsrkS County.


The Disease which Prevails among Swine In
B-rks County.
The disease which has carried off SO
ity has excited alarm among the farmers
of Berks county. Forty valuable hogs
have died, eighty in all are sick and the
disorder is on the increase. The disease is
supposed to be what is commonly known
as I" hog cholera, "'' purple blue disease, -
etc., and is a contagious inflammation of
the lungs and bowels, accompanied with
purple and red blotches On the skin. The
animal at first is dull, looses his appetite,
lies down aud moves unwillingly. He
hangs his head and sometimes make
efforts to vomit. The bowels at this time
arc generally constipated. In a few days
the characteristic symptom of the disease
shows itself. This consists in the appear
rnce of dark red or purple blotches pass
ing into blush black color about the
ears, throat. neck, breast and inside of the
fOrelegs.
If the afflicted hog is white one the
discOlorations are plainly visible. Soon
his breathing becomes labored, he is pal
sled in his hind quarters, aud if he is
driven runs with his hind legs reeling aud
his head dropped to the ground. At this
stage fetid diarrhoea sometimes sets in.
The fatal termination is reached sometimes
in a few days, but generally in a few
weeks. The disease is accompanied by q
swellcd throat, and the animal refuses all
kinds Of food. No cure is known. The
state authorities have been notified and
will make an examination at once.

Phlpps' secret Arrest.

A new turn in the daily aggregation
aud complication Of Major Phipps' rascall-

perry way OF sliding out of difficulties,
occurred yesterday in the important dis
covery that he was arrested on q crimiua!
Charge for almshouse Irregularities as far
back as month ago, and by means of the
shrewdness of his friend and counsel, Geo.
W. Harkins, the aid and Intervention of
his active companion and associate III

and the possible assistance of some other
officials, was enabled to keep the matter
from the ears of tho public. The search
for the fugitive is kept up. He is believed
to be in Canada, and the authorities ex.
press the conviction that he will be caught.

DEFAMING THE DEAD.
WoRk or CuOPER,s sMUr MAoHINE,

An Attack ON tho Memory OF . BeI0v ed Di-
vine xhst Wall Bs Vigorously Rassated.
Bishop simpsons Testimony.
Philadelphia Sunday Mercury.
The Cooper machine committee has
been guilty of several asinine moves since
it took down its shutters and opened its
shop for business, but the one that most
merits condemnation is the wilfui and un.
manly attempt to besmirch the character
of the father of Candidate Pattis0n, who
ere this has been "gathered to his
fathers" 1t is sometimes safe to attack q
dead man, and sometimes it is not.
Where the dead man has friends who hold
his memory in sacred remembrance and
are able to defend it, and where the dead
man, too, leaves behind him 20 largo .
constituency as did the Rev. Robert H.
Pattison, such a proceeding is most
impolitic. The Cooper machine COM
mittee, in its anxiety to get in a
blow at the Democratic candidate for gov
ernOr, its arsenal being painfully bare Of
ammunition, strikes at him over the grave
of his father. 1t accuses the father of
cherishing disuni0n and southern senti-
Eents during the late "war between the
states." Then, to follow line of logic,
it implies that tho father, being . rebel
sympathizer, 90 must the son. Only an
Ohio man would a$tempt % blind . folly
in city and state where the union record
of the Rev. Dr.. Pattison is 90 widely
known and 80 we'll established. At the
breaking ont Of tho war the Philadelphia
annual conference, of which the Rev. Pat
tisOn was distinguished member, and of
which he was the secretary for . round Of
years, was held at old st. Georges church,
in this city.
Strong Union resolutions were offered,
which were supported by Mr.. Pattison.
They passed, as did one also that the nom
bcrs of the conference practically exhibit
their devotion to the union cause by TAX
ing tho oath Of allegiance. The published
reports Of the proceedings of that body
show that the conference marched in
body to the office of the mayor, aud there
took that oath. In the pulpit as well as
out of it, Mr.. Pattison is remembered rs
an enthusiastic supporter of the federal
arms. Again, at the time of Lees inva-
sion of Pennsylvania, the Methodist
preachers of the city, including Mr.. Patti
son, resolved at one Of their weekly meet.
inss, held in the onion church. on Fourth
street, to offer theis services to Governor
Curtis to repel the rebel advance. Subse-
quently the patriotic father Of the Demo-
cratic candidate appeared, fully equipped
aud waving Union flag. 1t seems that
the services Of tho fighting preachers were
not accepted, but this did not deter MIR.
Pattison from going to the memorable
tield Of Gettysburg, where he admins
tered to the sick, comforted the dying and
made himself useful in q hundred ways to
Meade's army. He was also an active
promoter of tho Christian commission.

Another Kick.

The Abingdon Niryinian, edited by
Judge George w. Ward, and heretofore
one Of the strongest Readjuster organs in
Virginia has gone squarely back on the
Malone system Of political bossism. It
declares that the effort of the Readjuster
and Republican state committees to change
their party relations and form a partner
ship for the purposes of the congressional
campaigns "was usurpation of power
such as has never been attempted by the
leaders of any political party in this coun-
try, and will be condemned by the people
at the polls" Judge Ward was the Sec
ond of Capt. Wise in his duel with Capt.
Crockett, and has been q pronounced Read

=.
A Domestic Quarrel Finally Ends In .
II Murder. 7
Jacob Zimmerman was. found lying by
the side of the Northern Central railway
track, Just within the. city limits of Balti-
more, in an unconscious condition. He
was removed to tho city hospital, where
he died shortly after midnight. 1t was
discovered that he had had difficulty
with William w. McComas, who struck
him on the side of the head with a heavy
paint brush. An autopsy disclosed tho
fact that death resulted from the blow.
and the jury rendered a verdict to that
effect. McCOmas stated that he struck
Zimmerman because the latter had been
the cause of the trouble which separated
him from his wife. McComas was arrested
and committed to Jail to await the a0tDn
of the grand jury.
