Mr.. WRIT, of Cecil county, hereto
fore a prominent member of the Mary
land Civil Service Reform Association,
was conspicuous by his absence from
the meeting of the association on Tues
day night, when the anti-Higgins reso-
lutions were passed by that body.
When local postotfices are the stall e,
too much zeal for reform might prove
embarrassing. Go easy, Johnny.

Democrats came into power is empha-

There is wide spread and serious preva
lence of disorders Of the kidneys; and of
various diseases caused by the imperfect
operation of the kidney: and liver. Ac-
cording to Roberts, Themp-on, and Other
rscosuiZ-d authorities kidney disorders are
very common, but the obscurity of their
positive symptoms is so marked that many
people i'll am, out of sorts generally, are
really victims of kidney complaint, and
they and their physician d" not realize II.
These diseases prevail amongst young and
old everywhere, resulting in terrible and
untim ely deaths; they take oft mo Z people
than epidemes; physicians report death as
occurring from such diseases AZ apoplexv,
paralysiS commissions, heart disease, Pneu-
monia, fevsrs, etc, when i'll reality these
disorders are often secondary to Bright's
disease and would seldom occur were the
kidneys in healthy working condition.
Hence, from personal knowledge, or from
tue trustworthy experience of other compe-
tent Judges, we believe there is no prepare

nently mentioned elsewhere in this issue,

disorders of which we have written. 1t has

threatened by a fearful epidemic, it is of
the highest importance. according to DR..

A chorus OF 0,0O0 to 10 600 voices sent up
from the densely packed masses in front and

sible to oe appreciated by those who heard

that so perfectly packed mass of people

Sheridan came into the Senate Chamber to-
gether, and stood shaking hands with the
many men who pressed forward to see them.
Hancock is certainly the handsomest
old gentleman | ever saw. His hair
is white, ard he wears only a mouE-
tasche; he is magnificent in his proportions,
and hfs Generals uniform only made him
more conspicuous. Sheridan is most con.
temptible locking little man, short and
thick-set, with face too red. certainly, for
good looks. The people ID the galleries IS
soon as they caught sight Of the generals
were wild with enthusiasm, and from the
cries of Hancock" and the remarks that
were made, ii was easy to tell which of the
two was the attraction.

WALDRoN, Ind, March 9.-Dr. Comingore,
OF Indianapolis, assisted by Drs. Washburn
and Curtis, OF this place, performed a surgi-
cal operation on Albert Luther's leg yester.
day afternoon. 1t is widely known that
some months since Mr.. Luther was seriously
injured by the explosion of dynamite, his
leg and arm being NECESSARILY amputated.
Severe Inflammation followed, producing
death OF the inner table OF the share of the
thigh bone, which necce ssarily compelled q
second amputation. Albert is doing we'll at
this writing. He has nerve to stand almost
anything, having gone through smallpox,
vaccine wires and dynamite, and still lives.
