Everybody knows that the life of the
avers,,,e physician is a hard one. He is
os-rl compelled to ride great distances
thr iagh mud and rain for merely nom-
inal Fee tits not fit nor proper for US to
condemn any physician for his work, but
we do assert that his practice can be made
easier, and he can effect more cures by
the proper and judiCious use of PERUNA.
II he will only add this great remedy to
his list ofmcdicines he will find that his
usefulness will be greatly increased. Full
direction for its use will be found in the
a. Ills of Life" and he should at once pro-
cure this valuable book.
n. J. Wright, Business Agent Evening
Herald, Erie, Pa, SAYS: "DR. HART
MANI can not but feel it my duty to
express to you my thanks for the great
benefit received from the use of your
medicines, PERUNA and MANALIN.
One bottle of each placed me square on
my feet, after sickness of four weeks,
which confined me to my bed, and then
left me lame and crippled. Three days
from the commencement of the use of
your remedies the cane was dispensed
with, and in a week was perfectly WELL"
Mrs. Ellen Maynard, Oswego, Potter
county, Pa, writes: "DR. HARTMAN,
Columbus, o. The small ulcers are all
healed, and the two large ones are not
more than half as large as they were.
am feeling quite well. The people say
your PERUNA and MANALIN are doing a
miracle do not take nearly so much
opium as ! did before"
Joseph Thomas, East Brady, r. i,
writes az have used your PERuNA and
MASALIN with good results. In the year
of 1880 / was so bad that could scarcely
walk. / used PERUNA and MANALIS,
and am now as healthy as | have ever
been. l have also recommended II TO
several parties, and they have been mach
benclted by it.'
Mr.. c. II. Harris, New Vienna, Ohio.
writes: "Our little girl was paralyzed
at thirteen months old, and we resorted
to everything we could hear of for relief,
but she appeared to get but little better.
Hearing of PERUNA we concluded to try
it, and will say it has done her great
deal of good ~ the first bottle apparently
giving aid and relief. We have used It fer
nervousness in other cases on other per-
sons and found it a success. For general
debility, and in fact for any disease, We
don't think anything else can at all COM
pare with it. We have used forty or Fl ty
bottles, and our house is never without
PERUNA. Our little girl is now eight
years old, and can run any place, was for
four years helpless. PERuNA cured her"

a sly wedding in this section re-
Gently. Mr.. Oliver Baker, of

The parties attended the picnic in
Durrah's woods on the 10Th ult.,
from which place they went to
Smithheld in the evening and were
quietly married by Rev. H. O..

John Jones of Mt. Braddock
was picking some of his choice
fruit here on the 9th. Our worthy
supervisor Mr.. John Adams made
the road from Frank Costolo's
house to the new bridge this week.
The stone work of the new
bridge is nearly finished, and is
spoken of in terms of commenda-
ton by all. But the parsimony
Of the court in refusing to extend
the stone work farther on the left
bank is to be regretted, as it is
evident that the dirt fill will not
withstand the pressure of the
waters when they are on tear.
In our letter last week we wrote
that Thos. Jarrett of Pennsville
attended the funeral at Fletcher,
but somehow it came out in print

At the election in Ohio held on
Tuesday of this week, the voters of
that State passed upon an amend
ment proposing a change in the date
of holding the Ohio State election
from the second Tuesday in October
to the first Tuesday after the first
Monday in November. The pros

adoption, but at the time of going to
press we have no information as to
the amendments fate.

MIKE METZ.-Last weeks Genius
refers to Mike Metz, the Italian, thus
michael Mezzi, alias Mike Metz, the
Italian, charged with the murder of
Cossodenti Rocco, of which we gave
an account last week, was lodged in
the Fayette county Jail last Friday.
The accused was averse to coming
to Fayette, though judging from the
past he is safer here than in West
Virginia. They do, sometimes, hang
people over there The accused was
brought to Jail here in this wise: The
Sheriff of Fayette county and dep
uty went to Morgantown, when the
Monongalia county Sheriff deputized
them to take the prisoner to the
Pennsylvania line, where they rear
rested him and brought him to the
Fayette county Jail. He is not cit
izen of the United States. The pris-
oner is of medium height, and when
the writer saw him was sitting
astride a board in the corridor of the
Jail playing game of "seven up"
in which he was very much interest
ed. He played the game handed,
wore a white shirt, (much soiled J
black trousers and vest and tolerably
white socks. He is also the posses
sor of pair of black eyes, a black
mustache, black hair and dark skin.
He says he never was in Fayette
county until brought here by the
Sher riff.

Governor Cameron, of Virginia,
who was elected as a Readjuster-

tired of his company. He is said to
favor the election of Fitz Lee for
Governor this year, which is a very
considerable blow to the Malone
party.

The small fry republican papers
of West Virginia have been patting
the West Virginia Democrat on the
back because of it's abuse of the
democratic party leaders in West
Virginia. What do they think of
this in reference to their own party
leaders?
"The prospect of Republican ascen-
dency in this State sends thrill of
horror through our veins. Be it re-
membered that Republican ascen-
dency means that West Virginia is
to be delivered over into the merci-
less hands of the very worst element
Of that party. Men like DR.. Logan,
ExGov. Pierpoint, John Mason,
Flick, Haldeman, Judge Brown, Nc
Lean and Archie Campbell are driv-
en- from the front by the low cunning
of INSCRIPTIONS schemers and trick
sters. We tremble for West Virgin
ia if she falls into the hands of such
bitter, intolerant, and ignorant par
tisan fanatics as those who, with few
exceptions, represented the Republi-
can party in the last Legislature"
1t is safe to say that no thrill of
horror is sent through the veins of
the editor of the Democrat, because
no one believes that Republican as
tendency in West Virginia is at all
probable. The light-weights who
control the Democrat are disgruntled
because they cannot have everything
their own way, and they think to
frighten the Democratic party into
submission to their little will and
the adoption of their little methods
by this kind of bug boo.
OF course, the result of Republi-
can asceadency would be the surrey
der of the State to the worst element
of that party, because as a rule the
worst elements of the Republican
party are always on top, and the
worst elements of the Republican
party are indeed bad enough We
had a severe example of this when
they ruled West Virginia in the days
Of test oaths and prescription. And
we verify believe that such Demo
Gratis as seem to be in the office of
the Democrat would deliver the
State to the woast element of the
worst party that ever oppressed a
liberty loving people in order to &C
complish its purposes and designs,
which we believe to be purely selfish
and personal. But the masses of the
Democratic voters are wise and saga
cious, and we have no fears of either
Republican ascendency in this State
or of the Democratic party being
frightened by the Democrats blus-
ter. 1t may sometimes give a little
comfort to Republicans to hear this
paper rant and abuse Democratic
politicians and leaders,, but they
need comfort and we do not begrudge
them this small crumb.

Vice President Hendricks SAYS he
thinks that President Cleveland, in
recognizing the Civil Service Com
mission, will appoint men who,
while pledged to the principles of
civil service, will have business
like conception of their positions. !"
And who will make their rulings
more in harmony with the spirit
that dominates political parties than
the old board did"
If Mr.. Hendricks means that the
President will appoint commission
that will by their rulings give the
offices to honest democrats without
any more fooling about it we hope he
is correct. This thing of civil SER
vice that keeps democrats out of of
flee and republicans in office is about
''played out" When Cleveland and
Hendricks were elected it was said
that they would turn the rascals out
and the people expect them to do it.
When Mr.. Cleveland was elected he
was expected to take horn and
blow it, and not go monkeying around
the band wagon until the exhibition
is all over. Let us have a board
that will have "a business-like con-
ception of their Duties" and one that
will do their duties in business
like way. Put honest, capable dem
ocrats on guard and keep them there.
That's the kind of civil service that
we're in favor of and we don't care
''who knows it,

Mr. Robert Simpson has been ap-
pointed postmaster at Wheeling in
place of Mr.. Hugh Sterling, suspend
ed. Mr.. Simpson is said to be an
excellent man for the place and his
appointment gives good satisfaction.
The Wheeling Register says this APP
pointment will be good news to Dem
ocrats, not only of our own city, but
throughout the State, and that the
appointment will give the Democrats
confidence in the Administration and
will strengthen the Democracy in
this section of the State, and Ohio
county especially.

A correspondent calls attention to
the fact that the Press is silent as
the grave on every question which
concerns the welfare of West Virgin
ia. We regret that his letter is
crowded out.-West Vsrgiata Demo
crdt.
If the Democrat would crowd some
letters and articles into it's columns
or questions concerning the welfare
of West Virginia, instead of its edi-
torials decrying the public men and
institutions of the State and trying
to make believe there is no intelli
gence or honesty outside the select
few who control that little sheet, it
would be vastly to it's credit and
better for the State.

The Ohio Democrats are in good
spirits. The campaign is quiet but
well managed. 1t is estimated that
Hoadly will get 100000 votes, For
aker 100000, and of the vote about
10000 will go to DIR. Leonard, Prohi-
bitionist. This gives the State to
Hoadly by 10000 plurality. The
Republicans are greatly alarmed
over the prohibition movement and
the Democrats are encouraged by it.
The Republicans call the Prohibit
tionists Assistant Democrats. 1t
makes no difference what they are
called 80 they do the work.

IT. IT. Munger, ID. B.


 The attention of the United church of this Munger as their pastor it will doubtless in- terest not only the members of that church, but the community generally, to know the estimation in which he is held at bis home in western Massachusetts. The following mo- tioe of him was taken from the Springfield Republican of last June:
 Rev. T. T. Munger's call to Newtonville, which was made public this week, has turned the attention of the good people all through the county toward him and everything pos sible will be done to induce him to remain with his North Adams church. MT. Munger has done more to advertise North Adams to the literary and religious world than any other man by his publications in this country and in London. His books are quite as well known in England they are here and the English reviews have spoken in the highest terms of his 'tOn the Thresholdn and Clamps and Paths.' His philosophical pa- per in the May number of the Century Maga- zine has been read and commented upon by all the best scholars in.'this country. MT. Nun gers brother clergymen at a recent meeting in Adams adopted the following unanimous ly and presented MT. Munger with a copy:
 The members of the North Berkshire association, having understood that our brother, Rev. I. IT. Nun Churches with inducements to remove from among among Is desire to express their wishes in reference to his relations to and this community. The asso- citation earnestly hope that Mir Munger will remain among us. His intercourse with us, always friend ly and helpful, has strongly attached in a per sonal way to him, and his going would be to us a serious loss. We are sure that MT. Munger's re- moyal would be great misfortune to the county in all it's higher interests each of which receives from him encouragement and most valuable aid. We transfer to another position could hardly in crease his influence Among us he is known, his won his good name an accomplished and pro- found Christian writer. Help comes from the hills strong in the conviction that in the years to come MT. Mungers influence will widen and deepen by remaining in Berkshire Having given expression to our personal wishes and judgment, I've assure MT. Munger that whatever his decision may be, he has our warmest friendship, entire confidence, and wherever his home may be wish him many years Of enlarging usefulness a preacher and teacher of Christian truth

Sanitary Measures i'm General Under
 COnstderatiOn-Small and Vacc1-
 nation.
 The Board of Health held meeting last evening, Professor Brewer lresiding.
 The meeting was generally devoted to 8 discussion of sanitary measures necessary to the health of the city. The subject of vac cination was first considered.
 MT. Welch thought if there was any vacci- nation at all it should be general and be thoroughly done in all of the public schools.
 Dr. Lindsley-The Board of Education could select the physicians, who could select good virus. This done, notice could be giv- en through the newspapers and parents una ble to bear the expense could receive certifi- cates which if carried to proper physicians the vaccination could be performed at stip- ulated price.
 MT. Welch-There are people in New Hav- en who would rather see the city lose $200,- 900 from the ravages of smallpox than to spend $2, GOO in vaccination.
 President Brewer-The trouble is that we have two governments, town and city. These different sets of men in office wish to shift the odium, if any, on the other, and so the work is delayed or not done at all.
 After farther talk on this subject of a similar character MT. Welch brought up the subject of the sanitary inspectors. He said: eff the inspectors are still at the work of a general cleaning up, and the work is pre- gressing satisfactorily would recommend that the services of extra inspectors be con- tinued so that the work may be finished up as far as possible before cold weather sets in."
 A sanitary map was next considered. Professor Brewer thought it very necessary that the Board have good sanitary map of the city This work is now in progress said the professor, and when completed it will be very valuable for reference. I would like to see the work completed soon as possible As there seems to be no objection we will consider this plan approved.
 The matter of estimates for 1886 was then considered briefly and informally, after which the Board adjourned.

BOARD OF SELECTMEN.

Registrar Merrill Before the Board Removal of Insane Patients From New HamPshire-Bills Approved.
 A regular meeting of the Board of Select men was held last evening. Present, Select men Tyler presiding), Reynolds, Feldman, Treat, Beecher, Brown and Klenke.
 Registrar Merrill appeared before the Board to explain in regard to the printing of the registry lists, it having been stated that the cost of printing was excessive. He ex- plained the difficulty under which the regis trars labored in getting the lists printed, owing to the brief time allowed by law in getting out the lists after they were prepared for the printers. He said the registrars were quite as anxious as the Board of Selectmen to get the work done as quickly and cheaply as possible and if the Board thought they could get it done as well and as cheap or cheaper than the registrars why they had no pbjec- tions.
 Selectman Feldman reported from the committee appointed to confer with the Board of Selectmen of Hamden in regard to the care of the road dividing the town farm and the town of Hamden that they had met those gentlemen on the ground named and had reached an agreement whereby New Ha- ven was to care TOT IL S4S rect eaSterly to Gay1ords brook where there is a bridge, while Hamden was to care for the road 698 feet westerly from the brook, the bridge to be cared for jointly by the two towns.
 The report was accepted and the agreement as reported was adopted.
 The report of the committee appointed to meet like committee from the city to select janitor for City Hall reported that the joint committee selected William Bohan.
 Town Agent Reynolds reported that all ar engagements had been made to remove the if the Middletown asylum, and the committee to remove them would start Wednesday morning and would be back to New Haven on Friday. He said he had received a letter from the superintendent at Concord saying that one of New Havens female inmates. Mary Clifford was very sick with consump- tion and he thought there would be consid- erable risk in removing her. The Board de- cided that if such was the case that it would be better to leave her there.
 The committee who will go for the insane persons are Selectman Klenke, J. J. Coogan and J. J. Clerkin of the almshouse, Mrs. J. J. Coogan, assistant matron at the aims house, and lady assistant. Of the number of insane persons to be removed ten are fe- males and five males.
 Bills were approved as follows: Assessors $557. 7.5O, insane poor $62. IS, salaries $41369 almshouse $612.59 roads and bridges $1 ,619.- 21, outside poor $717O3, new farm s54 40, construction account $1O3, general account S60
