0h,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 BITTERs, and
it does this by commencing
at the foundation, and max
ing the blood pure and rich.
Logansport. Ind. Dec. !, 1880.
For a long time / have been .
sufferer from stomach and kidney
disease. My appetite was very poor
and the very small amount did eat
disagreed with me. Twas annoyed
very much from non-retention Of
urine. | tried many remedies with
no success, until I used Browns
Iron Bitters. Since used that my
stomach does not bother me any.
Myappetite is simply immense. Ny
kidney trouble is no more, and my
general health is such, that ! feel
like new man. After the use Of
Browns Iron Btters for one month,
have gained twenty pounds in
weight. o. B. SARGENT.

ASKING FOR WORK.
The TeIegraphic Strikers Want
Their Old Positions.
The Cause Of the Pailure-some Of the
Operators Say the End is Not
Yet Miscellaneous News.

New YORK, August lS.-The main Office
OF the Western Union Telegraph company
was besl.ged from an early hour this morn
ing bV nearly one hundred operators seek
ing reinstatement. There were but few
women and girls among the number.
superintendent Rhinestone was busily en-
gagged discriminating between the appiica-
tiOns from iirst-class workmen and those
who were considered second and third rate,
only the best workmeR Deing taken back,
ana quite number of operators were dis
appointed by being rejected. Those OPP
orators who had been taken after the strike
commenced will be retained by the compa.
ny IN their present positions, Since the
strike was declared ended yesterday only
twelve women have been received back in
q ne employ OF the company. The
TOTAL NUMBER OF WOMEN
VINO have applied for reinstatement Is over
forty I'VE, 50 that number are left with
out work. Superintendent Rhinestone said
that torty-iy men were taken pack yester-
day afternoon aud last evening, About
thirty more trst.class msn were reinstated
this morning. He said all OF the branch Of
fces will be open for business on Monday,
and everything will be in perfect running
order 10y that time. He could not promise
that the company would find positions for
4 operators, but he thought large num-
Der would be compelled 10 seek positions
elsewhere, a. the company could not in JUS
tice to itself discharge those operators who
stood by il in It's difficulties. 1t will take
about
TWO WEEKS
before positions can be found for those OF
the strikers whom tle company intends TO
reln,taie. 1t is said that none Of the line
men have yet applied for their old posi-.
tionN, ana II they did, ii was likely their
applications would be rejected, as men
who were taken on during the strike have
become proficient In their duties, and will
not noN be discharged to make way for
strikers. There are stil anumber' OF oper
ators and nearly all Of the linemen who say
lhe strike is not yet ended and they intend
to make things lively for the company vet.
This, however, is regarded as mere
talk and brayado. Mitchell,
q the Brotherhood, says the men will re-
turn to work just as fast rs the company
will take them back. He expressed the
belief THAI by the end Of a week or so there
would be but few OF the strikers who would
not be relnstated in the company's en-
ploy. A few OF the strikers who were re-
!ected this evening were loud in their de-
nunciation OF the action Of the Brotherhood
in holding out so long, and BY that means
allowing their places 10 be filed by other
men.

Rasoicc, re!cice, s Be SIS alive again. So yVas
lest, but Is found"
UEoER date of July g. 1882 Mr.. E. B. BRIGHT,
Of Windsor Locks, Ccnn., writes plain, modest
narrative, which, from It's very simplicity, has the
true ring Of fine gold. He says:--
My father is using Hunts Remedy and seems
to be improving, in fact, ne is very much better
-ssAan he has been for q long time. He had been
tapped three times. The first time they got
from him sixteen quarts of water, the second
time thirteen quarts, and fully as much more
the third time, and ne would constantly fiji
up again every time after he had been tapped,
until he commenced using Hunts Remedy,
which, acted like magic in his case, as be
begun 10 improve at once, and now his watery
accumulation passes away through the secretions
naturally, and he has none of that swelling or
filling up which was SO frequent before the func-
tions Of the kidneys were restored by the use OF
Hunts Remedy. He is well-known citizen Of
this place. and has always been in business here"
Again he writes, Nov. 81, 1885,
- beg most choerfulIy ana trutnfuliy TO state,
in regard to Hunts Remedy, that its was the
saving of my fathers life. Ispoke to you in my
previous letter in regard to his being tapped three
times. 1t is the most remarkable case that has
ever been heard of in this section. For man Of
his age (sixty years. it is most remarkable cure.
He had been unable to attend to his business
more than year, and was given up by tho doc
tors.
"The first bottle of Hunts Remedy that he
used gave instant relief. He has used in allseven
bottles, and continues to use it whenever he feels
drowsy or sluggish, and it affords instant relief
He is now attending to his regular business, and
has been several months. am perfectly willing
that you should publish this letter, as We thor
oughly believe that fathers life was saved by
using Hunts Remedy; and these facts given
above may be benefit to others suffering in like
manner from diseases or inaction of the Kidneys
and Iiver.''

AYERS CATIIARTIC Pills are the best
Of aH purgatives for family use. They
are the product Of long, laborious, and
successful chemical investigation, and
their extensive use, by physicians in
their practice, and by all civilized na-
tionS, proves them the best and most
efectual purgative Pill that medical
science can devise. Being purely veg
etable no harm can arise from their
use, and being sugar-coated, they are
pleasant to take. In intrinsic value
and curative powers no other Pills
can be compared with them; and every
person, knowing their virtues, will
employ them, when needed. They
keep the system in perfect order, and
maintain in healthy action the whole
machinery of life. Mild, searching and
efectual, they are especially adapted
to the needs of the digestive apparatus,
arrangements of which they prevent
and cure, if timely taken. They are
the best and safest physic to employ
for children and weakened constitu-
tions, where q mild but effectual
cathartic is required

There was a pair of colored danes, Aunts
fhy yllis.a and Aggy, who attained very great
age. The General used to remark that the
smoke from their cabin chimneys was to
him sort of barometer. He referred to
live of the members of his family whose
aggregate ages made 400 years-himself,
Mrs. Heth, Capt. Cooke, and the Aunties.
Some years before his death he connected
himself with Tinkling Spring Church. Rev.
DIR. b. nj. Smith was the pastor. and in his
funeral sermon, that was published. he said
that he never visited the General that she

&" HIS PLACE OF BURIAL.
As we have remarked although about
forty years My has elapSed,s ,sir ce hisdeath,
yet considerable difference of opinion exists
as to the place of his burial. We supposed,
as a matter of course, his body would be
laid by his wife, son, two sisters, and
brother Charles, as we believe, and per-
haps others of his family. Besides, our at
.tention was, some six years ago, called to
the neglected condition of the cemetery in
which they sleep on the Turk farm, as
mert toned by the late j. Dorsey Hanger.
Besides the dilapidated fence and the al
most impenetrable thicket of briers and

short time before, he observed by the side
of the Generals grave heap of feathers,
bones &C., and looking closely, found that
FOX HAD MADE A NEST IN 1T,
and was rearing litter of young.
Encountering Col. Rudolph Turk, and
supposing he could determine the question
as to where he was buried, he said, with
considerable positiveness, ''why, at Tink-
ling Spring, of course, and DR.. Smith
preached his funeral" Yet he admitted
he was not there.
In few moments we met Mrs George
w. Woods, a daughter of the late Braxton
Davis. She said, with equal positiveness,
that he was buried near home; that her
father, regretting the dismantled condition
of the grave, with his otcn hands put up a
railing around the Generals and his wifs's
graves.
But it is remembered that he was buried
WITH MILITARY HoNoRs
by the Waynesboro' Volunteer Rifles, Cap
tain, Clinton G. Miller. Besides, Colonel
David S. Bell sent us word that the burial
was at home, which he attended.
Is there enough of patriotism among us
to relieve US of the reproach of permitting
the graves oftwo prominent Revolutionary
officers to be endangered by the plow-share
of eternal obliteration?
