A New Coincidence.

Everybody in Newport has, for the
past few weeks, been talking about CO.
incidences. The Rev. Mr.. Shcer set
them a-going by his beautiful lecture.
One gentleman who was present and
heard the address has related an exper-
ience OF his that appears almost as re-
markable as any told around that
campfire in the Adirondacks. The
gentleman in question is one who oc-
cupies an honorable position; he has
been successful merchant; he is an
honest, veracious cit zen. In 1861, Just
after the outbreak of the civil war, the
gentleman had started in business. He
did not lack enterprise, but, at the
same time, he went ahead with caution.
and that was how it came about that
when agentleman engaged in New York
in the same business as he himself was
offered him large quantity of tea at a
reduced price, and declared that he was
certain it would double up in less than
three months, he refused to entertain
the proposition. 1.-The fact is" sal
the young merchant, II have not gos
the money if | were inclined to specu-
late" But the New Yorker was per-
sistent, and evidently desirous of doing
the young Newporter a good turn. At
last the latter gave way, and, matters
being arranged, he purchased about
Sl,O0O worth of tea at the price named.
In less than six weeks Providence par
ties heard of the tea being here, and,
that commodity having risen very much
in price, they came and paid the young
man just double what he had given for
it. He had made about 81 900 by the
transaction, and felt correspondingly
grateful to the gentleman who had
suggested it. Some three years or so
o,during the Summer time, our New
port friend was sitting in his place of
business thinking over old times, and
how he had prospered, and the incl
dent of his first large purchase of tea
rose before him. He had not seen his
benefactor for more than twenty years
in fact, the gentleman's name had
passed from his memory. This annoy
ed him. and he racked his brain in the
vain effort to recall it. Finally he sat-
istied himself that he had got the given
name, and after while he remembered
the surname; the two were Samuel
Robinson. He took up his pen and
wrote these two names on sheet of
paper. Scarcely had he done so, and
before the ink upon the paper was dry,
he heard voice in his outside store ex-
claiming, rs Nj. - alive vet? If
he Is want to see him, for l haven't
set eyes upon him for twenty years"
Before he saw the person he had recog-
nized the voice; it was that of the gem
tleman who had done him such good
turn. The gentleman entered his Of
flee and there saw his old friend and
his own name newly written on sheet
of paper. ..How's this?' said he.

We are likely to have war in Ohio-be
tween the two factions of the Democratic
party, and between the two ends Of the
State. The Cleveland Plain Dealer has
entrenched itself in the old Herald build
ing, on Bank street, and provided itself
with the munitions of war, and weapons
for defensive and offensive conflict, and it
is now thought that firing will commence
at an early day on the Cincinnati En-
quirer and its lusty and lively owner, Mr..
John R. Mclean. This, with the missiles
which will be heaved into Johnny's camp
by the Columbus Times and the Dayton
Democrat, will keep the air full Of sulphur
GUS fumes and the horizon and zenith red
with the blaze Of the fray. And Re
publicans can enjoy the circus without the
expenditure of q cent.

SCRQEulA

Usually develops in early life,
and is a peculiar morbid con-
dition of the system, usually
affecting the glands, often re-
sulting in swellings, enlarged
joints, assesses, thiekening
Of the lips, enlarged neck, sore
eyes. A scPofulous condition
is often hereditary, but bad
diet, too free use of fat meats,
bad air, want of sunshine and
nourishing food will induce
1t. Some people are troubled
with scrofulous swelling Of the
glands, and with ulcers and
kernels, which may cause very
little pain; others may have in
ward scrofula, scrofula Of the
lungs, scrofula Of the spleen,
scr0fula Of the kidneys, and
scrofula of the bones. BUR-
DOCK BLOOD BITTERS will
drive away any case ofscrofula
and not to appear in another
place, for their action on the
blood and bowels will carry the
disease entirely from the body.

The Buffalo Evening News has the fol-

II the counsel for General Hazen is telling

that the son of the lamented was really the
author OF the paragraphs be accused Hszen Of
writing. If this is true it is rather plain that
the court will not be long in session.
The newspapers have given considerable
currency to this charge. 1t is impossible
that it can be true. We cannot be per-
suaded that Robert T. Lincoln is not q
man of honor anu integrity. He discharged
his duties as Secretary of the Interior with
ability and with thoroughness. We believe
him to be q worthy son Of an illustrious
sire and that if he has made any mistakes
or done any wrong he has been misled by
interested parties. That he has erred we
are not prepared to believe.

The Washington correspondent of
the Boston Post says: "Some day Lieut..
Darlington will be found to have done
brave deeds and to have made a more
successful fight against the elements
than any one else who has been con-
nected with the signal-service Arctic
expeditions. His retreat over 600 miles
in open boats, and the consequent saw
ing of the lives of all his men, was
pluckier and showed more judgment
than anything done by the last expedi-
ton. He was practically in the same
situation and was further north when
his ship was lost than Greely was at
Cape Sabine. Greely, too, had boats,
as Darlington had, but the latter took
to them, made his journey, and saved
bis men, while Greely knocked his boats
to pieces for fuel and lost most of his
party by starvation"

forefathers," is probably what
many will exelaim.

add sad chapter to the romance
in the lives Of two well-known peo-
pie. Miss Kate Sanborn, the pop
ular lecturess on literary subjects,

ham. He is eighty-three years old,
and, by a strange coincidence. the
age of his betrothed is thirty-eight.
Despite this disparity in their ages,
the marriage was to have taken
place shortly. Last week Burn
ham was stricken down with pneu-
monia, and at his advanced age
there is little hope of his recovery.

A Law Needed Here

Ben. and Joe Holiday hav.
been lawlng in Oregon courts fol-
years. Last Saturday, District
| Attorney Geary of Portland, ap
piled to the State Circuit Court to
have note for $163, 900, given by
Ben. to Joe, declared forfeited to
| the School Fund on. the ground
that it is usurious. Under the
Oregon statutes, any note which
directly or indirectly draws more
than ten per cent interest per an
mum, is usurious, and the principal
must be forfeited to the School
Fund Of the county wherein the
note was made. It is in evidence
that this note for $4,000 was
given in 1879, to take up note of
100000, made four years before
the interest being one per cent,
per month, compounded on the
original note. The District At
torney has sufficient motive in
pressing the case, as the law al
lows him ten per cent on the
amount forfeited to the School
Fund, and it is the belief around
the courts that he has a very
strong case. 1t is understood that
the suit was instituted on infor-
nation furnished by Ben. Holla-
day.
Such law as Oregon has, is
badly needed here ill Nevada
Money can be secured at law rates
of interest there, and in Nevada it
is gilt edged security at 2 per cent
month. Nevada languisLes,
while Oregon prospers. Here the
