Letter from Female Physician.
~ SECOND AVENUE
NEW YORK. Nav |. 1883. (


My speciality is diseases of women and
children. like 'AllcOck's Porous Plas-
tiers because they are 50 quick and eflici-
ent, and never irritate or mark the ten
derest skin. l have found them most use
full in my practice, and they are certainly
the best plasters now made. To illustrate:
My son Of ten years OF age took a bad cold
and cOughed necessarily; no medicine
would relieve him; after some twelve
hours l applied an AllcOcks Porous Plas-
ter to his throat and upper chest. The
cough ceased entirely in an hour, and the
next day the boy was well.
| told the case to a gentleman who suf-
fered in the same way; he, too, was cur
ed IN tWentv-fOur hours of his cough by
AllcOck's Porous Plasters. Another pa
tient suffered from pain in the small of
the back-AllcOck's Porous Plaster was
applied at night, and next morning the
pain had ceased. Again, a young lady
suffering from Neuralgia Pains around
the heart, by my advice used AllcOck's
Porous Plasters, and was entirely cured
in three days. Finally, a lady came to
me with Cold Feet, which constantly re-
Cured night and day-this sometimes
is a symptom of Uterine COngestiOn-I
applied an Allcock's Porous Plaster to
the sold Of each foot, and here feet got and
continued warm. She wore the Plasters
over a week.
Thus l have recently tried AllcOck's
Porous Plasters, and take great pleasure
in bearing witness to their remarkable
curative power.
JANE NJ, BAKER, NJ. ID.
"Allcock's" is the only genuiue Porous
Plasters; buy no other and you will not be
cheated.

Our kilograms give an account of an
explosion in the coal mine at POcahOntas.
Va, yesterday morning, which adds an
other horrible chapter to the history Of
the catastrOphes Of 1884. From 100 to $50
miners were killed, and their families left
destitute. The frequency Of mine explo-
sions, and the loss of life that attends
them, demand the earnest attention of
the Legislatures Of the different States.
and scientific investigation should be in
augurated so as to ascertain the best
means for the prevention of such acct
dents.

Senator BLAIR has introduced a bill pro-
hIbiting the manufacture and sale Of in
toxicating liquors in the District OF 60
Iumbia. The Senator's enmiIy to any
thing like Bourbonism causes him to de-

makes a Congressman's life at the capital
endurable.

This is said in paragraph abiding to

true in the abstract, but the statement
comes with bad grace from paper pub
lished in Connecticut, where the annals of
mysterious murders record the most re-
voting crimes that were ever perpetrated
in 4 civilized country.

The Nashville literati have recently
been wrestling with the mOmentOus ques-
tiOn, is Mathew Arnold a true poet?'
The weight of the argument went to prove
that Mathew is pre-eminent as a critic
and educator, but that he is selfcOnscious,
and therefore not poet. II is to be feared
that If Arnold hears Of this discussion he
Will reconsider his determination not to
write another criticism on American civil

Gov. Thompson and the Cash Affair

Gov. Thompson ana the CaSn ATIalr.
The Governor of South Carolina is doing
his whole duty in the Cash affair. If it
had not been for his energetic action
nothing would have been done towards
bringing the Cashes to justice. At first it
was thought that the old man Cash had
no other connection with the murders than
the effort he made to prevent his sons
arrest. 1t is claimed now, however, as
appears from the Columbia special of the
Charleston NelCS and Courier that Began
Cash shot Richards, the Town Mar
shall, at the command of his father.
The statement is that Began Cash was
quietly attending to his business affairs
in Cheraw when he received Il note from
his father, delivered by 4 colored boy, and
that he replied that it was ali right, and
Immediately hunted up Richards and shot
him. 1t is also stated that when he ar
rived home he said to his father that he
had received his letter and had killed
Richards. If these statements are shown
to be true, it Will be sufficient to commit
Old man Cash of an otfense for which
hanging is the punishment. 1t is clear
law vigorously. Began Cash has
not yet been captured, but it is
probable that he will not long
avoid arrest. There is no fear that he
will leave the State because he would not
know how to take care OF himself away
from home surroundings. The vigorous
way in which the Governor is acting
must be a surprise to old man Cash. The
Governors conduct is in fact a prOcla-
nation and warning that men cannot be
shot to death in South Carolina with i'm
punitY.
Another Campaign Lie Nailed.
The manner in which the Chicago
Tribune deals out ISLANDERS by wholesale
and retail against the South and the
Southern peoI le makes it difficult to de-
eide what its purpose is. We have had
occasion more than once IN the past few
weeks to denOunce as false campaign SLAM
ders Ostensibly telegraphed to that paper
from various portions of the South, nearly
all of which were editOrially approved.
few days ago the Washington cores
pondent Of that paper gave an account of
alleged statements of Senators HOar, Frye
and Cameron about ex-President DAVIS,
the Misses Lee and others occupying a box
decorated with Confederate flags, ETC., at
a ball in New Orleans, during Mardi Gras
The MORNING News editOrially express
ed a doubt that such statements had been
made by the Senators named. Since then
these Senators have authorized Senator
Jonas, of Louisiana, to deny that either of
them made any such statements. They
say that neither of them attended the ball,
and that they never knew or heard before
of the statements made by the Tribune
correspondent.
If the campaign ISLANDERS which the
Tribune is engaged in circulating are not
manufactured in its own office, it is dis
playing great enterprise in covering the
country with an able corps u manutac-
turers of fiction, especially instructed to
exercise their talents in inventIng outrage
literature.

A True Story.


A Colorado farmer having been to a
revival meeting, felt very religious, and
as they were entertaining some city
friends he thought the proper thing to
do would be to have morning prayers.
So the household were assembled, and
be began by reading chapter in the
bible, then he requested them to kne ell
while he made prayer.
He commenced. Ten minutes passed;
twenty; half an hour; then an hour
wore its weary length along; the listen
ers began to grow restless, but still he
prayed with unabated vigor, with no
signs of termination, until it was high
noon.
His wife was in despair, all the farm
work had yet to be done, beside the
housework; and felt sure the kitchen fire
would be out, and their chance of din
ner slim, indeed. She was perfectly in
accordance with his wish for morning
prayers, but to have them continued all
day and far into the night seemed lit
orally too much of good thing. At
length unable to endure it longer, she
leaned over and whispered to him:
"John, don't you think you have
prayed long enough?o
'sYes bnt don't know how to wind
the thing !o-Carl Pretzel's Weekly.

gan to let his beard grow again. He
emigrated to America, where he has
now resided for many years. In the
course of time his beard acquired the
length of five feet, when he cut it off
and sold it for seventy five dollars to the
Chicago Museum. Since that time he
has lett it untouched, but it still remains
a source of profit as he shows it in pub
lie, and sells portraits OF himself The
beard now measures twelve and half
feet. When he goes out he folds it
around leather belt which he wears,
but at home he lets it hang down at full
length, and wraps it around his feet
when the weather is cold. The extreme
tip of the beard makes all excellent
paint brush when fastened to short
stick, and he is proud of showing proofs
Of his skill as painter on doors, fences,
etc. The son OF the old gentleman looks
upon this extraordinary appendage as d
valuable legacy, his father having di-
rected that alter his death the beard is
