PLAIN
TRUTHS

The blood is the foundation of
life, it circulates through every pant
of the body, and unless it is pure
and rich, good health is impossible.
If disease has entered the system
the Onlr sure and quick way to drive
it out is t, purify and enrich the
blood. D
These simple facts are well
known, and the highest medical
authorities agree that nothing but
iron will restore the blood to its
natural condition; and also that
all the iron preparations hitherto
made blacken the teeth, cause head
ache, and are otherwise injurious.
BRowN's IRON BITTERS will thor
oughly and quickly assimilate with
the blood, purifying and strengthen
ing it, and thus drive disease from
any part of the system, and it will
net blackcn the teeth, cause head
ache or constipation, and is posi-
lively net injurious.

THE TARIFF.-A tariff for protection
and incidentally for revenue. is scheme
to tax the mass of the people, many fold,
that the manufacturer may get four
dollars without any valuable consider
alton returned to the people, while the
government gets one for its support. It

but to make the rich richer. 1t takes

ury the money Kings.
Free trade is the utopiau scheme of the
visionary theorist, who reads books and
chops logic, which, carried into practice,
will keep alive and perpetuate the In
ternal Revenue system by which the
people have been harassed and oppress-
ed and an array of corrupt and intensely
corrupting officers have been distributed
throughout the country and kept at
public charge, as if to demoraIize and
debauch the people.
A tariff for revenue with incidental
protection, wisely adjusted to promote
the growth of fhomeindustries which can
be successfully established, and at the
same time stimulate agriculture and the
mechanic arts, without depressing any
GLASS; is the true solution of this great
question.
1t involves the entire obliteration of
the ahominable Internal Revenue sys-
tenn, with ailits c0rrupting influence.
1t is the wise, golden path of Legisla-
tion, that will stimulate the prosperity
of every practicable branch of industry.

MATERIAL OF THE U. S. COURT
JURIEs.-Wm. Donald, a negro at work
on the chain gang here, in execution of
a sentence for larceny, received a sum-
mons to attend as a petit juror the U. S.
Court to be held at Harrisonburg on the
Sth day of May next. He has made
strenuous efforts to obtain his release in
order to obtaiu the pay of a juror. What
a commentary is here upon the chiefest
bulwark ofour liberty! A juror, who is
to-pass, perhaps, upon the life or liberty
of some deserving man, or at least to de-
eide controversies as to property accord
ing to law and the facts ascertained by
his conscience, is a convicted criminal,
working the streets of Winchester with
ball and chain tied to his leg. This
country is fast nearing the shoals upon
which its free institutions will wreck,
and it will require general upheaval of
society to save it, Winchester Times,

By order of President Arthur's super
iniendent of Virginia. General Malone.
he State Board of Education has put
negroes upon the public school hoard of
Richmond, so that the election of teach
ers of the white schools of Richmond
now depends upon the vote of negroes.
The General it seems is still intent upon
carrying out his favOrite idea of obliter-
ating all race distinctions, as that, he
sees, is his most efficient means of keep
ing his negro vote solid. Mixed school
boards necessarily implies mixed
schools. The white people of the State
are willing to bear the whole expense,
as they now have to do, of educating
the negroes, bat they will not allow
tn ir children to attend mixed schools,
nor will they patiently submit to their
children's instruction being supervised
by negroes. Blood is thicker than wa
ter and General Mahone's schemes must
fail because he is contending against ma
ture.-AleG. Gazette.

The negroes still stick 10 General Ma
hone with their proverbiel fidelity to a

desertion are playing havoc with his
white forces. They have sense enough
to see that there are but two political or
gauizations in this country, and that
such a thing as "readjuster" party after
the State dent has been ''readjusted" is a
ridiculous humbug. They also have be-
come aware that the General is keeping
up his organization for no other purpose
than to further his own selfish ends, and
that if he be able to secure them he will
be perfectly willing to let the instru
ments he employs go TO Halifax or a
warmer place Seeing and knowing
this, and many of them having been de-
ceived by his false promises of office, they
are leaving him in all quarters of the
State, and the insignificant white COM
ponent of his party is growing small by
degrees aud beautifully less, while
his democratic opponents are being

THE Press From an article on

THE Press From an article on
The Press" by the Shenandoah Valley
we extract the following =
"The object of the press should be to
instruct, enIighten, and elevate the peo-
pie in all the relations of life. The tons
should be ehaste, high. and dignified.
There should be no condescension to
vulgsriiy, ialsehood, and misrepresen
tation. People shonld be cautious not
to encourage journals of such a charac-
ter. The language is not unfrequently
unbecoming, uDrhaste. demoraiiZing,
and fallacious, rejecting on individuals
and families, publishing many things
and much matter, that should never
come to the surface. We cannot well
conceive why it is that people of com
mon sense will allow such sheets to en-
Ter their families. People ought to be
AS careful about the papers, which they
allow to circulate In their families as
they are about the books. There is room
for improvement in this direction. It
is high time the attention of the people
is called to this matter. so grave and i'm

SINCE MOTHER DIED.

The sun shines just as bright to-day
AS it e'er did before,
The world is busy, glad and gay,
And jogs on as of yore;
But yet to US, the girls and boys
Who were her hope and pride.
1t seems bereftof half the joys
It had since mother died.
We wander through the lonely halls,
We lineer in her room
The pictures hang upon the walls,
The roses are in bloom;
And yet their hues seem faint and dim,
AS If they tried to hide
And deepening shadows f1tful seem
On all since mother died.
Yet, when we think that she has done
With earthly care and pain,
We cannot wish our darling one
Back to this life again.
She stepped within the golden gate
Close to her Saviour's side;
While we bereft but watch and wait
Below since mother died.

IMMORTELLES.

inside a shadowy vlgnette of the past,
My love abides;
Her face in yet more luminous color cast
By all besides.
For on the springs in which love had light,
The shadows dwell;
But stronger than the years her grace is bright,
With fadeless spell.
Since those May mornings when her voice of
song
Made my heart gay;
What though times pitiless wave has swept
along
And turn'd life gray?
No wintry tide has reached her lingering feet.
Nor touch'd her hair;
No cloud has fallen across the sunshine sweet
Which was her air.
fAcross her brow M lines OF care and age
Their shadows show;
Fadeless her beauty shines on memory's page
AS long ago.
AS gold which may not suffer in the fires
All else consuming
Her charm, amid all dying, dim DESIRES.
My life illuming.
Still shines. all changeless as the gem which
Midst earths decaying;
A sacred memory where the heart still yearns,
Back from all a-straying.
All else. time. change. the grave may claim
but her
These must not master;
The Heaven she dwells in may not know the
stir
or our disaster;
Nor may L deem her dear dead beauty marred
By times mad race;
Still smiles my memory's treasure, draped and
starred
Her radiant face!
And while on earth my footsteps loiter slow,
Her eyes shall shine,
On all our eddying tides of life below.
Changeless-divine
And in each vision of the blessed in bliss
Which rapture paints,
Brightest to me her heavenly figure is.
