The Sham and the Real.

Every good thing has its host of imitators !;
every genuine article its counterfeits. Bad
manners and wicked habits have theirs also;
but he who shams the bad never boasts OF 1t,
while they who ape the virtues of the good or
simulate the genuine never hesitate to place
alluring tones. When these people Initiate
they always choose pronounced type or pop
ular subject TO copy from and when they claim
to be as good as $50 and-So,' or to sell an ar
ticle equal to "So-and-So,' the public may de-
pend upon it that Mr.. "So-and.SO'' and his ar
ticle are always the best of the kind. Thus the
sham is always proving the genuine merit of
the thing it copies.
A firm of enterprising gentlemen produce
and popularize an article of household use, such
as the Royal Baking Powder, whose conven-
fence, usefulness and real merit make for itself

THE SMALL POX.-Since our last re-
port seven new cases of varioloid have
been reported, as follows: Mrs James
Dooley, one mile out of town; Mr..
Peck's child. another child of Mr.; d.
Strickler, Mrs Tosh Murray. Mr.. Dey-
er, colored girl at Judge Griffin's, all in
town, and Mr. Elias Murry. one mile
and qnarter out of town. These make
rs cases in all since the disease made its
first appearance. There have been no
deaths during the past week. All of
those heretofore reported are doing well.
Most of them are entirely well. They
are all, however, still under quarantine.
AS good luck would have it, majority
of our people were well vaccinated last
year when the small pox was at Roa-
noke, and nearly all of those who con-
tracted the disease from Mr.. Stevens
have had light cases of varioloid. Our
whole town is now thoroughly protect.
ed by vaccination, and future cases are
not likely to prove fatal Miss Annie
Stevens and Judge Griffin's child, who
died with the small pox, had never
been vaccinated. This proves the value
of vaccination.
just as we go to press we learn that
there is very little hopes of Mr.. George
Stevens recovery. Heis nearly 20 years
OF age, and was in very feeble health be-
fore he took the small -pox. Mr.. Deyer
will be taken to the hospital. 1t is now
fully ascertained that Mr.. T. D. Craw-
ford's two children have not got the dis
ease.-SdIena Register, 26th.

ADULTERATION OF TEA.-On- the
strength of petition signed by every
tea merchant in the Eastern cities to
whom it was submitted, the ways and
means committee of the House have
unanimously agreed to report bill to
prohibit the importation of tea which
may be adulterated with spurious leaves
or which contains SO great an admixture
of chemicals and other deleterious sub
stances as to make it unfit for use
Laws to the same effect are already in
force in England, France, Germany,
and perhaps also in other European
countries. So rigid is the examination
of teas in. England that her bonded
warehouses contain at this time A 443
packages or nearly three million pounds
of tea which have been condemned as to
the English market, but which may be
re exported to other countries. The
greater part of this spurious tea will
find, it is said, its market in the United
States, where it will be'sold by auction,
mixed with better grade of teas; and
palmed off to American consumers. The
consumption in this country of teas of
all grades is sixty five million pounds a
year. It is quite as desirable that we
should have law prohibiting the i'm
portatiOn of adulterated tea as it is for
England. France, and Germany. When
such teas are admitted into our market
they invariably find purchasers who are
more attracted by their low price than
by theirsquality and genuineness. The
doctored green teas and the low grades
of so called Congous are often manufac-
tured in China from teas already once
used in Chinese households, dried,
The coloring of so called green teas with
Prussran blue is in the highest degree
deleterious to tea drinkers, and 1t is by
no means impossible that such teas
reach American customers from other
sources than by re export from Eng
land Baltimore San.

to the great discomfort of the present in

the deceased lin the days of his flesh"
positively vouch for the truth of the ac-
