The Indiana Scnat0rship IN the Courts.
A question which will have an in
fluence on the Indiana Senatorship
has worked its way into the Courts.
1t involves the right of the Repub-
lican Lieutenant Governor to his
seat. The Democratic President
pro tenn Of the Senate claims that
the State Constitution only provides
for the election of Lieutenant Gov
ernor by the people every four
years, when the Governor is elected,
and that he, President pro TEN, has
the right to the gubernatorial sue
cession in case Of a vacancy. If the
Courts sustain the claim, the Repub-
lican scheme to get the Senator by
ousting Democratic Representatives
may be defeated. The Republican
scheme is to oust enough Democratic
members just before going into the
Senatorial election, and using the
Lieutenant Governor to keep in theil
seats the Republican Senators whose
seats are contested. They would
thus, have their contested Senators
vote in joint convention while the
Democratic Representatives woule
be ousted and the Republican con
testants seated and have vote also

occupations.
Z. Quail, who was very low last
week with typhoid fever, is getting

Success to you, boys
Should G. H. Grosvenor be a can

now, he will not then be so grateful
to the vot2rs of Monroe. Soldiers
will have learned by that time that
pension legislation does not slumber
wholly on the bosom of the august
Charles.
One OF the most complete surprise
parties that has ever occurred here
for many day, took place at the
residence of w. II. Stellers on
Thanksgiving evening. 1t was a
surprise, indeed, to Mr.. and Mrs.
Stel!ers, when they went home from
the postofiice about s o'clock p. m.
to find every bed and all unnecessa-
~ furniture set aside, and the din
ing-room occupied by table set di-
agonally across the floor, loaded with
ali the good things that the taste of
the most fastidious could relish.
There were forty-six present in adj
dition to their own family. Mr.. and
Mrs. Stellers extends to each one
present, their grateful thanks for
this mark of their esteem.
Miss Mary Citizens, who hiss been
on an extended visit at Newark and
Columbus, returned last evening.

LEBANON.

FIRE.-The residence and barn of
Theobald Young, who lives in the
neiehborhood of Lower Salem, was
burned on Thursday morning at
about q. m. The facts concerning
the fire, as related to us, are as fol-
lows: At the time mentioned Geo.
Twiggs was aroused by Mr.. Hos
kins, who discovered that Mr..
Young's residence was on fire. When
he reached the place the inmates had
escaped from the burning building,
saving nothing but their clothes and
one bed. Mr.. Twiggs noticed that
the flames had wrapped the barn in
their fiery embrace and that il was
as near consumed as the house 1t
was too late to save Mr.. Young's
horses, which were in the barn, or
any of its contents; SO his valuable
hores, wheat, oats, wagon and farm
ing implements were consumed. The
fire fiend has made a destructive
harvest at Salem and vicinity since
last May, and savors very strongly
that name incarnate devil has been
applying the incendiary torch. A
proper Investigation, and if the per-
petrators of this deyilish work are
found, and the law Of Judge Lynch
applied, lives and valuable property
might besaved. Mr.. Young is an iu-
dustrious, upright man, and has the
sympathy of all who know him.
7. B. Day is still visiting our far

10000 pounds of tobacco at an aver
age of less than So per hundred.

WASHINGTON CITY.

That yon may know the little bit
of 'taffy" given me in your paper,
occasioned by my last letter. wss not
at all unpalatable,-''Here we are
again" as the clown in the circus
would say.
Last week was gala week for
government employces,-two holi-
days in the same week, ex-President
Arthur's funeral and Thanksgiving
day. AS the latter was such an in
tolerably bad day, raining and cold,
it afforded a good opportunity of
staying in doors, and / passed it, to
my entire satisfaction, reading and
sleeping; and at night treated my
self to ticket to see Maggie Mitch
ell in "Littlc Barefoot" and was full
ly repaid, by the excellent acting of
that charming little woman.
My other holiday was passed
sight seeing, in company with Will
Morris, of Woodsfeld, and friend
of mine here, who occupies desk,
near me, in the department. My
friend has lived here nearly a quar-
ter of century, and knows Wash
ington pretty thoroughly. Both his
Grandfathers in their day took quite
an active part in politics, one a
whig, the other a democrat. His
grandfather, Edison B. Olds, was
once a congressman from Ohio, and
was one of the, so called, 'Jour dogs"
who voted for the Nebraska Bill.
The other grandfather was Nathan
Sargent, a great whig politician, and
writer Of ante bellam days. He was
at one time Sergeant-at-arms of the
Senate, or House, and was person
al friend of such men as j. @. Adams,
Chas. Sumner, Webster, Clay, Ed
ward Everett, Henry A. Wise, Alex.
H. Stevens, Lincoln, Chase and 9TH
ers. We had the pleasure ofreading
letters from all the above named men,
written by their own hands. Some
of the letters dating back as tar as
1885, and addressed as private" or
"confidential," to "Nathan Sargent
ESQ.," These letters are interesting
from the fact that they bring us near
to the great men who wrote them,
and they are written in that free and
open style peculiar to one friend wri-
ting to another. Aside from the in
terest attached to them on account
of their age and authorship, there
are many things, in them, touching
different quertions of the time ct
which they were written, that have
never come to The public, and which
give a clearer insight into the char
acters of the writer's than anything
1 have ever seen. One letter partic-
ularly attracted my attention, per-
haps on account of its great length
and glancing over it l saw the ex-
pressions "rotten democracy" and
''black republicans" frequently used
and looking for the signature
found it to be A. LINCOLN. The letter

Facts Worth Knowing.

In all diseases of the nasal muc-
ous membrane the remedy used must
be non-irritating. The medical pro-
fcssion has been slow, to learn this.
Nothing satisfactory can be accom-
plished with douches, snutfs, pow
ders, syringes. astringents or any
similar application, because they are
all irritating, do not thoroughly
reach the affected surfaces and
should be abandoned as worse than
failures. A multitude of persons
who had for years borne all the wor-
~ and pain that can inhict testify
to radical and permanent cures
wrought by Ely's Cream Balm.

Their Business Booming.

Probably no one thing has caused
such a general revival of trade at R.
W. Pope's Drug Store as their CIV
ing away to the customers of so many
free trial bottles of DR.. Kings New
Discovery for Consumption. The
trade is simply enormous in this
very valuable article from the fact
that it always cures and never dis
appoints. Coughs, Colds, Asthma,
Bronchitis, Group, and all throat
and lung diseases quickly cured.
You can test it before buying by
getting a trial bottle free, large size
ST.. Every bottle warranted.

TRADE SUMMARY.

General trade does not exhibit the
same progressiveness rs shown a
week ago. The total of last week S
transactions show falling-off that
is not altogether accounted for by
the occurrence of Thanksgiving,
though the latter undoubtedly had
something to do with it. Independ-
ent, however, of the allowance ne.
cessarily made for the holiday, the
totals do not, in any measure, carry
out the promise that was made by
the opening days of the week.
The dry goods trades have mos
severely suffered from the transient
dullness, and the loudest complaints
come from this quarter. These
trades are the most sensitive and ar,
always the first to feel the ups an(
downs of a varying market.

Saving the Lawyers.

'The first thing we do, let's kill
all the lawyers. This is rather q
od-thirsty proposition which We
modify by offering to cure this
worthy class of people. Most OF
them suffer Tin common with nearly
ali others of sedentary habits from
the injurious effects of dyspepsia, in
digestion, piles, loss of appetite, and
other ailments caused by "a constipa-
ted habit of the body. DR.. Pierce's
pleasant Purgative Pellets" eradi
cate all these disorders in promptly
removing the cause thereof, and in
duce rare degree of comfort and
health.

WHY Is IT

WHY 16 IT
That rheumatism and neuralgia are 90
prevalent? This question has not been
satisfactorily answered, but it is certain
that these diseases are not only the most
painful but among the most common, and
some member of nearly every family in the
land is the victim of one of these dread
tormentors. Ladies seem to be peculiarly
liable to neuralgia attacks, which, in the
form OF neuralgia headache, pain in the
back, or nervous pains are of constant oc-
currence. Not until the discovery of Athlo-
phoros had any remedy been found for
either rheumatism, neuralgia or nervous
headache, and they were generally con-
eeded to be incurable. but Athlophoros
has been proved to be not only certain
cure for these diseases, in all their varied
forms, but safe remedy. If, in the use
of Athlophoros, the bowels are kept freely
open its success is certain, and to aid this,
Athlophoros Pills are recommended,
which, while providing the necessary
cathartic, will be found to be valuable
aid to the action of the medicine Athlo-
phoros is no experiment, it has been tested
and has proved its wonderful efficacy.
The Athlophoros Pills were originally
prepared as remedy for use in connection
with Athlophoros, for rheumatism and
neuralgia and kindred complaints. Used
in connection with that remedy, they are
a certain cure for either of these very COM
mon and distressing diseases. They have
also been found to be an invaluable remedy
for any and all diseases arising from vitiated
blood or general debility. They are es-
pecially valuable for nervous debility, blood
poisoning, dyspepsia, distress after eating,
headache constipation, loss of appetite,
and all stomach or liver troubles For
diseases Of women they are invaluable.
These pills are perfectly harmless and may
be safely used by adults or children.
Testimonials of those who have been
cured will be sent free on application.
Every druggist should keep Athlophoros
and Athlophoros Pills, but where they can
not be bought of the druggist, the Athlo-
phoros Co., 112 Wall St., New York, will
send either Carriage paidD on receipt of
regular price, which is S1.00 per bottle
for Athlophoros and Soc. for Pills.

reason to complain.

Work on the new Christian Church
edifice is progressing slowly. AS it
is now late in the season, it will
hardly be completed until next sum-
mer.
Our fine school house and two new
churches will give Cameron an i'm
proved appearance.
Corn, which was rather large
crop in this vicinity is nearly all
gathered.
Our merchants are all doing a fair
amount of business.
Not much leaf tobacco is being
sold here yet. AS the present crop
is a large one, ,and the merchants re-
port a large amount of last years
crop yet on hands, the price of to
bacco will be low.
Our schools under the manage
ment of A. j. Ward, as principal,
and William A. Ross as assistant
are making good progress.
Our Touring mill, under the man.
agement of experienced millers, the
Young brothers, is doing a good bu-
siness.
Mr.. ]. w. Ward, is still engaged
in leasing land for the oil test in this
section.
Judging from the number of hog;
and beeves that are being slaughter
ed in this vicinity, the people intend
to live well, the Democratic admin
istration and hard times (?) to the
contrary.
Mr.. John L. Ellewine, who some
time ago, while hunting, had the enc
shot off his thumb by his gun being
accidentally discharged, can begir
to use his lame hand again.
Mr.. Sylvester Henthorn, who alst
