Eating a Meat.

A German family in LatrObe. Pennsyl-
vania, recently ate heartily of some raw
fresh pork. and were afterward very sick
with trichinasis. Two of them have died,
and two others are not expected to recov-
or. 1t Is STRANGE that anybody should
suffer frsm this disease, after 30 many
years Of experience and continual warn
ings in the press. Triehin@ are always
killed by thorough cooking. It Is only
by eating pork uncoOked that any dan
ger is incurred. Trichin@ infect the
lean meat-the muscles. The fat Of
pork is generally safe, even If eaten raw.
Trichinm exist in rats, In cats, In rab-
bits. and in some other animals. Hogs

Will In all prODaDlllIy Do d hepupii-
can is the present conviction of the
American people. judging from the dis
advantageous position of the Democracy
In consequence Of Carlisleism having
petered out, the Morrison bill still born,
the disgruntled position Of the party in
Ohio, Pennsylvania, New York, the
strong and aggressive position of the
Protectionists under Randall; tho in
crsasing unbslisf among the people in
the unwisdOm, cowardiee and cOOrup'
ton of the Democratic machine; the ut
ter hopelessness of many Democrats in
looking to their party for any measure,
act or principle, calculated to meet the
wants Of the hour.
This unloveliness, hesitancy, division,
degeneracy and disaffectiOn render it
impossible for the Democrats to even
hope for anything from their w dis
couraged ranks but continued blunder
and suicide. The Republican party on
the other hand adds deeper discourage
ment to Democracy by good behaviour,
rendering a third party impossible I'M
less it comes from the Democracy. The
harmony, work, concilliation, and effect
i've force Of the Republican party ex-
ceeds that of any since the first Admin
istration of Grant. The determination,
watchfulness, valOr and discretion of
the Republican press and leaders are
prominent features. Everything said,
thought or done is calculated to
strengthen the party for the coming con-
test. The convention at Chicago in June
will be the b~rainiest, wisest, most har-
moniOus and enthusiastic ever assem-
bled to name a President. Tho recent
elections, the tone of the press, the drift
of things, the general feeling of the peO-
pie, the manifest condition Of both par
ties-all this and more too indicate
strongly, that unless the Republican
party loses its sense, or the Democratic
party gets some sense, two verv imprOb-
able things, that the next PresldeD' will
be a Republican.
The TRIBUNE bO0mS no man for this
position. It will to the best of its abili-
ty support the Republican nominee for
President. 1t is not In good taste or
Judgement. it is not good politics to
boom a man in an extreme manner sim.
ply because the Republican party is
greater than any man or set of men, and
the united wisdom Of the convention at
Chicago will be best. But while we great
ly admire Blaine and Edmunds, we
nevertheless believe that it would great
ly conduce to the interest of the Repul
lican party and the count vat large, to
place Lincoln at the head 1.-THE ticket,
provided it be the pleasure IF the con
vention that meets in jan lat Chicago.

SONGS V SUNG.

"How does that verse run? Something like
this, isn't it?
There are who touch the magic string,
And noisy fame is proud to win them;
Alas! for those who never sing,
But die with all their music in Them"
'sYes, that's beautiful, pathetic and true"
said your representative. 1.-THE poet alludes to
people who are somehow suppressed, and never
get their full allowance OF joy and air. Which
reminds me of a letter shown me the other day
by HIsCox Il Co., of New York, signed by Mr..
4. @. Williams, of Chapman, Snyder & Co.,
Pa, a prominent business mar of that place.
He writes:
and January, 1882. / hardly know what
prompted me to take PARKER'S Tonic. I did
SO, and the first day / took four doses. The
effect astOnished me. That night / slept as IL
nothing was the matter with me, and have
ever since. / have had colds since, but no
asthma. My breathing Is now as perfect as II
I had never known that disease. If you know
OF any one who has the asthma tell him in my
lame that PARKER'S Tonic will cure itceven
after forty years" There was a man who es-
capped the fate Of those whom the poet laments.
This preparation, which has heretofore been
known as PARHER'S GINGER Tonic, will here
after be advertised and sold under the name of
PARKER's Tonic. Inasmuch as ginger is really
an unimportant ingredient, and u~nprincipled
dealers are constantly deceiving their customers
by substituting inferior preparations under the

THE CHURCH CREED or TIE
FUTURE.

To THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD
The founder of the Christian religion
left only the narrow way as right. He
left Himself-for truth. He is the Life,
the Good, and the constant Power of
the Universe. lie left every one to
live as one freely chooses; for to force
one to take the right way would
neither change the heart, nor the life
of the compelled. Living in known
error and wrong does not make a
mans heart right in the sight of an
all-wise God. Living in unconscious
error does not prevent one from doing
all that they perceive to be right,
which is all that is required of Chris
tan or heather. Doctrines are chang
ing. Universalism is not the faith to-
day that it was five decades since.
The idea of infant damnation is gener-
ally exploded. We read that "God is
u consuming fire." Yet many have
believed, and some now believe, in
hell as possessing q literal fire, and
smoke, and birthstone; and yet these
know that God is spirit, that the
spiritual world and all it's substances
are spiritual. Methodism today wears
its feathers and flowers, builds costly
churches; but its devoted doctrine of
entire conservation has the vitality of
leaven to preserve its identity. The
Primitive Christian Church, the Greek
church, the Roman Catholic church,
all profess to retain nearly their first
simplicity; but as they each differ
from each other it is self-evident they
have had their changes. | do not ex-
pect that any protestant church claims
that its creed is perfect in all its parts.
The King of Kings gave the moral
law. But man from the Bible, and
also from his own self, derived pereep.
tons, made creeds, hence they contain
truth and error. Esthetics, scientists,
and perhaps everybody have their
hobbies; religionists have theirs, l
have never conversed with q Pedo-
Baptist who was not better educated
in the scriptural proofs, historical evil
dences, and Greek and Hebrew render
ings of baptism--'to immerse"- than
in facts Of the mode Of christening OF
the spiritual interpretations of con.
lirnation. | have never seen pres.

A DETERMINED HORSE THIEF. Last
Monday night, team owned by ii. Ii.

from the shed on Mill street. The thief
drove off with it by way of Derby ST.,

ing that the buggy was rendered use
less for the thief's purpose. Mr.. Hob

in pursuit, accompanied by Mr.. Hob
son. They finally ran down the thief
near Almon Smiths place in Newark,
where the horse was abandoned, the
thief fleeing to the woods. On Tues
day morning he was captured at East
Haven and Sheriff Bonett went there
and secured his man. On Wednesday
he was brought before Justice E. j.

CHEAPER TRAyEL.-Thc Grand
Trunk Railway has just introduced q
new and cOmmendaule method in their
passenger arrangement which viii
doubtlessly prove the means OF Undue
ing many people to travel. 1t is to
issue tickets good for one year allow
ing the holder to travel trips aggregat-
ing 900 miles at the rate of2 1-2 cents
per mile or 800 miles good for an equal
length Of time at 2 1-2 cents per mile.
The benefits of this new arrangement
over the former modes are considered
very great, not only in a saving of fare
but enabling purchasers to go and
come when they choose.

by James Boss, who started in business in
1854, and the methods and tools used in
making these watch cases are covered by
patents. THIS is the only match case made
under this process. For many years the in
PRODUCTION of these goods was slow, owing
Unpopular prejudice against "plated" goods,
but gradually the public learned that the

cheap gold-waShed or eLectro-plated article,
but was made of genuine gold plates of
standard quality and thickness Conscientious
adherence to the determination to make
the best watch case ever put on the market,

There is q star that never sets
Though centuries roll away,
Though millions on their touches rest,

Though suns may set, and moons retire
This watchful one ne'er sleeps.

And to the haven of rest.
And so, when friends and joys forsake,

And tells Of scenes more bright,
Then leads US to that promised rest,
