Cutting In Franklin.

We are informed that fig bit occurred
on the LIST inst. between John Shaw aud a
man named GOode, two tenants living on
the place of Mr.. John Noble in the eastern
part of Franklin cornty, growing out OF
a remark made by Goode about the
family of Shaw. Az our information goes,
Goode called upon Shaw in the latter's
field, when quarrel arose, resulting i'll
Goodies knocking Shaw down and jump
ing on him. A son of Shaw about II or
Is years old being present, then ran up
and handed bis father an ordinary barlow
knife with which he gave his antagonist
two CHASTITY wounds in the side or abdo-
men, but they were fortunately not deep
enough to prove fatal.

Only Half Alive.

There are hosts Of men and women
who, to coin a phrase, are only hall
alive. That is to say, they have seldom
if ever any appetite, are nervous, weak
fidgetty and troubled by numberless
small pains and aches. In the presence
of vigorous, exuberant vitality they seem
mere pignies. Such persons are usually
fond of frequently dosing themselves,
swallowing in the course of the year
enough drugs to stock any apothecary's
shop of average Dimensions. This, of
course defeats instead OF furthering the
end in view, viz, the recovery of health
and vigor. We're they to seek it FROM an
unfailing source of vitality, Hostetters
Stomach Bitters, how different would be
their case. Then vIgor would return to
their deblitated frames, the glow of
health to their wan checks, their trern-
bling uncertain gait would grow firm and
elastic, appetite, that grandest of all
sauces, would give relish for the daily
food, were it ever so coarse, and refresh
ing sleep would crown the tasks OF the
day.

l. Litchenstein, citizen of New Or
leans, has entered suit in the United
States Circuit Court for the payment of
5000 in county warrants which he holds
against Lincoln county. He seeks to OBJ
tain writ of mandamus from the Court,
compelling the county to levy a special
tax for the liquidation Of these warrants,
which, as we understand, have been is
sued and due for several years. In this
connection we may say that the Legisla-
ture of 1884 passed an act enabling our
Board of Supervisors to levy special tax
sufficient to pay this class of obligations,
but the Board, for some reason satisfac-
tory to themselves, refused to levy the
full limit of taxation provided for. If
this suit is successful other holders OF
warrants are likely to pursue like
course.

Lord Salisbury now has a fortnight in " hich
10 decide how be will deal with his Hpticnto's.
Parliament assembled ON Thursday To authorize
the writs for the reelection of Ministers, and
no business can be transacted until the MEM
beers of the Government are returned a second
time. Then there mus be Queens speech
and an address to the Ihronc. and while the
Government would Il IDLY defer untI! next year
the promul cation of 1t, Irish policy, it seems
inevitable that there must be an official ao-
nounccmc"t when Parliament is formally
opened. l. Lord Salisbury seeks to avoid tho
subject. it will Dc an easy matter for Mr.. Glad
stone to m we an Amendment 10 the address,
which will force Lord Rudolph Churchill to
Disclose the Ministerial policy. The Opposition

McanHhr. the IRISH people themselves have

required of the ability of the Irish constituent

they have chosen the hour of Mr. GlalstoneS
downfall for a most significant manifestation
of their gratitude and appreciation. by thor
persona, graccs Lord and I.ndy Aberdeen have
undoubtedly won the hearts of the people they
have governed but the esteem in which they
are held individually does not account for the

not unite in n demonstration that recalled the
tributes paid to the Liberator merely to testify
their good will to the retiring NIccrOJ. They
