No headache on the earth will stand,
But vanish in an instant sure.
Thousands say it's priceless boon
When headache racks the throbbing brain
In silent night or busy noon,
SO easy thus to free the pain.
No dose is given; no stop to rest;
No doctors bill, or bandaged brow.
This wondrous cure has many blessed,
They speak enraptures Of 1t now.

A democratic Model"

Last night after the adjournment OF
Council the young Democratic mem Der
from the Eleventh ward started ont To
have some fun. Finding boon CON-
panion, they loaded themselves with
forty-rod Lightning, and imagining they
owned the greater part Of Wilmington,
they went on a sky-lar& down Fourth
street. laundering down amongst the
peach baskets they brought up in front
of Lemuel Mars shoe store, and began
to sink down e. Hines peaches to keep
company with the whisky that had
gone before.
When Mr. Hines asked for pay for
his peaches the young city father
grew iratc at the thought OF charging
him with the peaches he eat. He trie Ell
to i'm press Mr.. Hines with the impor.
lance Of his greatness, declaring that he
was a Cry Councilman, and that be had
a great mind to order him OFT The pave
ment with his peaches, and he was
there in opposition to law anyhow
Then lie tried to make him feel bad by
telling HIM that he Was no Democrat
but IA down country peach pluck. The
other language used by the model De-
mocrat, is not fit to publish. His pro-
family s,aled nclvous ladies, and his
Cbsclrity is a disgrace to the lowest ami
mails.
He finally paid for the peaches he
took, and the twain staggered on until
they met officer Moore and eX-COuncil-
man William II. Quinn. The first ar
rested the companion OF the Councilman
and locked him up,and Mr. Quinn gath
cred up tue "moIel' and took him
home.

A Revenue from Profanity,

In one day last week a Baltimore
Justice of the peace imposed over 80
in fines and costs for obscene and pro-
fame language used on the street. ihc
Sun, Of that city, says: "lhe prose
cutions under the law against such
language are now more NUMEROUS than
those under any other statute. The
revenue derived thereirom is consider
able. The amount of the fines ranges
from S. to SO. The prisoners usually
pay rather than 60 to Jail. We have Il
statute in Pennsylvania imposing fine
TO profane swearing, but it is seldom
enforced. Should our local authorities
take it into their heads to enforce the
law large revenue would be derived
from the fines imposed, as there is a
wonderful! amount OF Unprovoked and
useless profanity on our streets. One
can scarcely walk halt block on any
greet without being greeted with ~
huIcet oatls from men and boys, and
with the example daily set them by
older heads, 1t is no wonder the quite
small boys, and even girls, learn to use
;prOfane and obscene language. a little
reform in this line would be Of vast
benefit to the good morals Of our com
nqn!ty Pa, TX.

Refused to Grant Q Warrant.

This morning dhcer Marques applied
to Judge Cummins for o warrant
for the arrest iof Councilman
John n. Newell, the Democratic mem.
Der from, the Eleventh ward, on a
charge of being drunk and disorderly.
The Judge refused to grant it, but said
that he would SEE City Solicitor Turner,
and if he would file au information he
would issue warrant. The officer
asked how it was that in the case OF a
boy for whom he applied for a warrant
for disOrderly conduct short time
since, h- issued it immediately, and bad
the information filed afterwards, and
he replied that he had adopted new
rule in regard to issuing warrants. The
officer was told to be present at 3 O'Clock
this afternoon, when he would be in
formed if the warrant would be granted
Officer Marques then called on City
solicitor Turner, and stated what Judge
Cummins had said, when he replied
thar the Judge was greatly mistaken, as
he should issue warrant when IT was
applied for, and then he would file an
information afterwards. He told the
officer to sse the Judge, and tell him
that he would meet him ut the Hall
tins evening at O'Clock. Thus the
matter rests for the present, and from
the experience OF a similar case a few
weeks since, thus it is likely to rest.

A strange Prueeeaing.

Some time ago John A. Parker, q
cOlOred man who resides At No. 49O
East Eleventh street, and is employed
as brickmaker ut James H. Beggs 4
Co,npany's yard, purchased an organ
to BE- paid for In installments. He has
completed his payments and has re-
ceipt for $ll5, the price of the instru-
inent
A few days since man who gave
his name as j. Hart, and said lie was
from Chester, called at Parker's house
accompanied by a constable, and seized
the Or an, taking it to the freight house
of the steamer FELTON, at the foot of
French street, with directions that it
should be sent to Chester. When Mr.
Parker came home in the evening and
learned that the organ had been taken,
he Immediately started in scar oh of II,
and upon finding it in the freight house
called upon special officer Jones to
assist him in recovering il, but he was
unable to attend to the matter at the
time
Parker showed his receipt, in prof Of
his having paid for the instrument. to
the officer of the steamer, and then
went to the City Hall and reported the
case to Chief Hawkins, who had the
organ returned to his house. Ii is a
singular proceeding all through, and it
is scarcely probable that Mr.. Parker
will allow the matter to rest as it now
