WHY make such haste? Who scorn delay

Stand still and wait, and watch, and pray,

Why struggle so 'gainst time and fate

The Hand of Death on Baby,s Pace.
From the Louisville Courier-J ournal.

A correspondent tells of an event hap
pening many years ago in the country
near Hsgerstown, Nd. A baby born
with fire mark on her face was taken
to where an old coIored woman was ~
ing dead, and her ice cold hand was
rubbed repestedly over the mark, ii be-
ing superstition that by so doing the
mark would disappear. The mother OF
the girl declares that from that moment
the mark faded away and IN a few
months was entirely gone. The girl is
now 10 years old, with complexion OF
rare purity.

pecaily true of a family medicine, and it is pos
tive proof that the remedy initiated is Of the
highest value. As soen as it had been tested and
proved by the whole world that bop Bitters was
the purest, best and most valuable family medi-
cine on earth, many limitations sprung up and be-
gan TO steal the notices in which the press and
people of the country had expressed the merits
of II. B., and in every way trying to induce SUI
fering invalids to use their stuff instead expect
ing to make money on the credit and good name
of H. B. Many others started nostrums put up
in similar style to II. B., with variously devised
names in which the word Hop" or Hops" were
used in a way to induce people to believe that
they were the same as Hop Bitters. All such
pretended remedies or cures no matter what
their style or name is, and especially those with

SALES OF CORN.

If anything argues well for the prosperity
of community it is the fact that it produces
it's own supply of bread. This has been suffi-
GENTLY demonstrated the past year to stand
as beacon light to farmers, warning them
against transferring their corn-cribs to the
West. Necessity compelled the farmers to
plant corn last year, and we cannot but be-
lieve they are pleased with the result. If
they are not entirely pleased, however, we
commend to their consideration the follow
ing figures, which we have been at some
trouble in collecting. BY calling upon all
the dealers in plantation supplies-and un-
fortunately corn has heretofore been class
ed under that head-we learn from them
that the sales in this market alone from jan
uary 1st to May Is, 1882, aggregated 14,7OO
bushels. For the same period the pres
ent year the sales have been 935 bushels,
the demand this year being local and main
ly from non-producers in town.. The ID, 700
bushels sold in Yorkville last year took from
the pockets of farmers living within limit
ed area of York county not less than fourteen
thousand seven hundred dollars, which
amount has been saved to them this year
by the increased production of this impor-
tant crOD.

THE GREELEY BELIEF EXPEDITION.

The organization and outfit of the Signal
Service relief expedition to Lady Franklin
Bay, under the command of Lieutenant
Darlington, are now practically complete.
General Hazen will shortly go to st. Johns,
Newfoundland, in person to select steamer
for the use of the party. Everything, he
says, which experience could suggest has
been done to insure the success of the under
taking. Lieutenant Garlington's men have
been selected with great care by General
Terry from among the best soldiers under
his command, and they are believed to be
unusually we'll qualified in pointo of physical
efficiency for the arduous service which may
be before them. The best sailing steamer
obtainable will be chartered at st. Johns to
carry the relief party North, and it is hoped
that under the management and guidance
of an experienced Captain and two or more
skilled ice pilots she will be able to make
her way through Smiths Sound and chan
mel to the Signal Service station. Lieuten-
ant Darlington, who will have command of
the expedition, is young South Carolinian,
and the selection of him for so responsible
trust speaks highly of the confidence re-
posed in him by the Government.

RETAIL LIQUOR DEBTS.

The recent decision of Judge Witherspoon
that retail liquor dealers or barkeepers can
collect bar debts, has created some surprise.
Some of the papers, in speaking of threat it
as matter-of-course decision, not seeming
to remember that until recently the collec.
ton of such bills was barred by Act of the
Legislature; and other papers speak of the
decision as though they regard the Tuppe1
law still of force. Section 9 of the Act OF
1S49 to alter and amend the license laws Of
this State is as follows:
"That if any tavern keeper shall give
credit to any person or persons for spirituous
liquors, he, she or they so trusting or giving
credit to any person or persons, as aforesaid
shall lose the debt and be forever disabled
from suing for or recovering the same or any
part thereof. And any note, bill, bond OF
other security which may be given for any
spirituous liquors sold or drank in or at his
or her house shall.be void and if any tav.
ern keeper shall sue for any such debt, the
person or persons sued shall and may plead
this Act in bar thereof"
The Revised Statutes compiled by the
Corbin Commission re-enacted the above
portion of the license law, but the compila-
tion of the Simonton Commission, which
took effect from May, 1882, repealed it
Hence any bar debt contracted since May
1882, can be collected by law the same as
other debts.

THURSDAY MORNING, MAY "a, 1883.
COMMISSIONER OF REVENUE.

The President has appointed Walter Ev-
ans, of Kentucky, commissioner of internal
revenue in place of Green B. Raum, resign
ed. Mr.. Evans is lawyer Of some ability
and is we'll known in the politics of his
State. He was at one time law partner of
Benjamin H. Bristow, in Hopkinsville,
Kentucky, and was Bristow man in the
convention of 1876. In 1880 he was dele
gate to the Chicago convention and was one
of the 3O6 who supported Gen. Grants can
didacy. In 1879 he was candidate for
Governor of his State on the Republican
ticket.
He and Postmaster General Gresham are
warm personal friends, and it is understood
that the latter was instrumental in securing
Evans appointment. The new appointee
qualified and was sworn in last Monday at
Louisville, the occasion for haste being that
the ten days for which an acting commits
sioner of internal revenue could be appoint
ed expired on that day, and it was necessary
that the commissionership should be at once
filed
