Duty is the power which rises with
us in the morning, and goes to rest
with us at night. 1t is co-extensive
with the action of our intelligence. 1t
is the shadow which cleaves to us, go

us when we leave the light of life.

Shipping GunpoMder.

David Carter, manager of the Detroit
and Cleveland Steam Navigation Com
pany made complaint against George
G. Wetherbee & Co. for shipping twenty
Aye pounds of gunpowder on the steam
or City of Alpena without marking the
package properly to indicate the con-
tents. Mr.. Wstherbee appeared in the
/. United States District Court yesterday
and pleaded guilty. He said that clerk
had violated his instructions in sending
the package. Judge Brown imposed a
fine of $3.50, one half of which goes to
the informer. Mr.. Carter.
Assistant District Attorney Finnoy
said that the Offense was serious one
and deserved to be severely punished.
The fine was light as this is the first
prosecution for the Offense. 1t is well
known that the law has been violated
with impunity, but there is good reason
to suppose that other offenders will be
harshly dealt with. The maximum fine

"All Quiet on tho Potomac"

Juno 3rd-In the evening--At the
Town Hall--A great event-A concert OF
war songs. 1t could not be called great
event II it were only an ordinary con
cert but because Of the character of this
entertainment and the number and
character of those who are to give 1t, it
will be but stating the truth to say that
this is to be the event Of the year thus
far. There will be chorus of twenty
Ave singers Of the very best musical
talent of the city, with tableaux repre-
s0nting scenes in the late war and
character pieces. Miss Paddock will
render q solo besides singing in the
chorusss. and Miss Spencer, "Ths Battle
Of Manassas" by Blind Tom. These old
war songs, which so stirred the patriots
of the Republic twenty years ago, will
be presented, on that occasion, as never
before in this place and as they have
seldom been rendered elsewhere. The
chorus will be unusually strong and
brilliant and the tableaux will wildly
bring to memory the scsncs Of those
"srOublOus times" 1t is under able
management and will be ably sustained
Unique and popular. IL will be altogether
unlike anything ever put on the boards
of this town. The chorus will be dress
ed in Uncle Sans uniform and will
march into the Hall and up through the
waiting aud sxpsctaRt audience after
the music of ffe and drum. The enter
tainment promises to be the graadest
most string. and satisfactory concert
ever given in northern Michigan. &c
see and hear it.

Beware Of Mercury and Potash,

Mercury is more destructive to
human health and life than war, pes
thence and famine combined. So
said a distinguished writer many
years ago. and il is as true to-day as
then. The poor victim Of Blood Dis
ease is drugged with Mercury to cure
the malady, and then dosed with
Iodides to cure him of the Mercurial
Poisoning; but instead of any relief,
the first breaks down his general
health and makes him cripple, and
the other ruins his digestive organs.
Mercury and Potash are dangerous
even when administered by directions
and under the eye of Il good physi-
clan, and when put up in nostrums,
often by incompetent persons, are ap'
to produce evil consequences. BE
careful of these poisonous mixtures
or you may regret it. Swifts Specific
is entirely a vegetable preparation,
and should not be cOnfounded Will
the various limitations, non secre
humbugs, "Succus Alterans," ETC., al
of which either contain Mercury ant
Potash, or are composed of ole
remedies which have long since beef
discarded as of no value in the treat
ment of Blood Diseases, and none o
them contain an article which enter
into the composition of Swift
Specific. There is only one Swift
Specific Is. S. S. and there /
nothing in the world like it. Be sur
to ret the genuine.

ENGLISH ROYALTY IN IRE
LAND.
Albert Edward, FRINGE Of Wales.
1reland's Latest Distinguished
Visitor.

Some incidents of the visit of the
Prince and Princess of Wales to Ire
land are well known TO every reader
of the newspapers. While they and
their son have been well received on
the whole, expressions of disallectiOn
and hatred of English rule have not
been wanting. Notably in Cork, the
distinguished visitors received Il
welcome which represented the eX-
tremes of feeling, expressed with the
hcartncss which characterizcs Irish
sentiment. On the whole the royal
visitors have been treated with be-
coming respect by the people gener-
ally AS well as with the generosity
aud warmth which characterize the
hospitality of those who entertained
them at their homes.
While the Prince of Wales in COM
mon with other mOrtals, has faults,
want OF tact and ready sagacity are
not among them. lie is inexception-
ally happy in his public appearance IS
and addresses. The royal family
could not be better, if as well repre-
sented, by any person, as by the
Prince, particularly in Ireland, were
iorbearance and tact are indispen-
sable TO prevent such hostile demon
stratlons as that which was not pre-
vented at Cork.

make the bear and the owner of the
bear sick unto the death, and | will

him that the bull hath the bear by the
tail, and that we will smite him unto

And the people were rcjoiced at

loud acclaim unto her of their joy.
And the canned beef was ordered to
be brought forth from Chicago TO kill
the bear; and the bull, seeing that
the bear was fast by the tail, did bel
low more and made u loud noise, in
somuch that men said of him: is
he not an ass? And when the first
day Of the week was come there came
a messenger from the czar saying !:

We will take him from the stall of
the bull, therefore put up the meat

Bull and the Bear.
Through Mail.

1Shk" N'"'A'
And in those DAYS, John, the bull,
was wroth with the bear and did bel
low.
For the bear was wont 10 share the
stall with the bull, and did enter in
and lie down.
And when the bull saw the bear, he
did below loudly and lash his sides
with his tail.
For he wot not that the bear was
in fun, but believed he was intent
upon the stall, wherefore lie did bel
low again.
And when the queen heard the
believing of the bull, she grew wroth
also and in the morning, she spake
aloud with her mouth.
"lIeard We not the believing of our
bull Go ye straightway and find out
that which exciteth his ire and bring
tidings thereof unto the palace"
And the rulers under the queen
did 90 forth in the morning and find
the bear lying in the stall of the bull,
and finding him, sought to entice
him away.
But the bear was not consumed
with desire to leave the stall of the
bull, and he opened his mouth until
they saw the nethermost teeth there
in, and growled a growl.
And they came unto the queen cry
ing in great fear, and they brought
unto her tidings of that they had seen
and spake tLeir fears unto her, re-
serving nothing Of all they beheld,
saying:
Most noble queen, the bear lieth
in the stall of the bull, and the bull
yearneth not for his company, where
fore the bull is wroth and refuseth
to be comforted, and if there be not
something done, the bear will eat OF
the bull"
Then the queen lifted up her voice
and called unto the people, saying
"Whose bear is this, that he should
invade the stall Of my most bully
, bull ? Verify he hath of gall caldron
) and an ever TO spare"
And her servants bowed dowl
their heads in sorrow and answered
/, the queen, saying: "The bear tha
: lieth in the stall of the bull hath nc
| owner among thy servants but he il
t a Philistine, whom they call the czar.
: When the queen heard that whicl
f they said unto her, she did turn NJ
her nose and sniff great sniff, ant
when she was shifted, she snorted
snort and rolled up her sleeves unit
the shoulders of her arms, crying
"Call We the soldiers and the boat
