Editor IRter-O ceGn, Chicago, III: send you this,
feeling that the information conveyed viii be of
material benefit to many OF your readers. One
of our oldest citizens Captain G.. W. BOyntOn, the
Government Lighthouse keeper at this point is
probably one of the oldest seamen> in America,
having sailed tWenty-SiX years on salt water.
After this foTty-SiX years service his eyeSight
failed him and he kept the Light at Chicago until
the Government built the Gross Point Light here,
when he was transferred. While seated in my
store this morning the Captain volunteered the
following written statement: " This is to certify
that | have been afflicted with rheumatism for
twenty COY years both in my side and limbs l
happy to say that after using less than two bot
ties of the ST. JACOBS OIL, am entirely free from
pain, though still Hmping somewhat when walk
ing, from long force of habit. c. w. BOYNToN"
Referring to the foregoing facts, might allude to
numerous similar cases that have come to my
notice, but a word to the wise is sufficient"

Tho very ,neagro Delnooratic majority
in tho two branches Of the New York
Legislature-only six in tho House and
two in the Sonats-has afforded John
Kelley and his supporters an opportunity
TO dictate torms OF reconciliation with
tho ruling faction Of their party, and ~
matter of course they have not been
slow to take advantage Of it. The
Ta,nmany mcmLers of the Legislature
have refused to so into the Democratic
caucus for tho selection Of officers, aud
~ they hold the balance of power in
both Houses, the Democrats dare not
proceed to IN election without securing
their cooperation, Terms will DO ar
ranged and tho lnalcontents brought in

will take big piece Of the chicken pie
Of official patronage to accomplish the
