RDIT0RIAL NOTES.

The wearers of new bonnets yesterday had
reason to be thankful. It was good day
for them.
The action of Governor Jackson of Mary
land in pardoning seven Democratic judges
and clerks of election, convicted of election
frauds at Baltimore, shows very clearlySha
great need of reform in Baltimore politics.
The New York Medical Journal gives
simple remedy for hiecough. The sufferer
should close his external auditory canals
with his fingers, exsrting certain degree of
pressure at the same time he is to drink
few sips of any liquid whatever, the glass or
cup being held to his lips by another person.
The effect is said to be immediate.
The commercial traveller is quite an i'm
portant part of this country. There are
about eighty thousand of them. Each enc
of them spends on an average $4,000 year,
or a total of s24o, 100000. If you add to
this their salaries, averaging at the least
81 900, you have total expenditure by coma
mercial travellers of $500, 600, 900 year.
John Half of Westbrook, Georgia, is more

He has big sign over his cabin door, which
reads &c The whole family of John Half

The French Radicals are growing viger-
ously over the msgni6cence Of French bish-
ops. Investigation has shown that the bish-
| op of Constance has thirty three chambers
| for his personal use in his palace, ninety
/ four for his assistants and twenty four kitch-
| ems, all manned with chefs. The bishop of
Anglers has eight kitchens in his palace and
about sixty roonas for himself and assistants.
| The bishop of Beurges has ten sumptuous sa-
Ions besides his private apartments. The
Radicals want their salaries stopped.
The attitude of Bishop Wigger of the
Catholic diocese of Newark, New Jersey, to-
| warl the public schools is unmistakab1e.
| The rules that he has issued require that in
| order to be admitted to the communion a
child must have attended q paroehial school
| at least two years, Immediately preceding,
and that children graduating from the pub
| lie schools, no matter what the ages, must
| attend Catholic school for year before
they can be admitted. Certificates from the
parish priests are required showing that the
child has attended the parochial school for
| the required period.
A movement with which many American
students will sympathize is going on in Wen
| ma to suppress the hausmeister. The latter
is an individual more oppressive than the
French concierge. He is allowed by law to
| close the door Of the particular house in
Vienna over which he watches at 10 o'clock;
| to refuse latchkeys and to collect 10 kreut-
zers frem whoever comes in later than 10.
The result has been that people wisely eco

Catarrhal Dangers.

To be freed from the dangers OF suffocation
while lying down; to breathe freely, sleep soundly
and undsturbed; to rise refreshed, head clear,
brain active and free from pain or ache; to know
that no poisonous putrid matter defles the
breath and rots away the delicate machinery Of
smell, taste and hearing; to feel that the system
does not, through its veins and arteries, suck up
the poison that is to undermine and destroy, is
indeed blessing beyond all other human enjoy
ments. To purchase Immunity from such fate
should be the object of all afflicted. But those who
have tried many remedies and physicians despair
of relief or cure.
Sanford's Radical Cure meets every phase of
Catarrh, from simple head cold to the most
loathsoms and destructive stages. 1t is local and
constitutional Instant In relieving, permanent in
curing, safe, economical and nevsr-failing.
Sanford's Radical Cure consists of one bottle of
the Radical Cure one box of Catarrhal Solvent and
one Improved Inhaler, all wrapped in one package,
with treatise and directions, and sold by all drug
gists for 81.

A Call for Young Men.

In all ages and at all times there has
been a steady demand for sensible.
hardworking young men. In these
days of dudes and kid-glove nonsense,
however the supply is far below the
demand, and instead of young men
with honesty, intelligence and industry
in their heads, we find a large number
who are striving constantly after social
effects and puny hOnors that are as
shallow as the sentiment that prompts
their attainment. When a man is
worth money and desires to loaf, it is
all right for him to be a fool, if he
pleases, and loll around languidly like
the most approved aristocrat He has
money; he must live; and he pays his
way. But for young men who are in
moderate circumstances, to say the
least, it is in bad taste, indeed, to ape
the aristOcratic idea, and it is fatal to
all interests, national and social, to
have them waste their time on style,
fashion and foolishness. Such men are
puppets, to be knocked about as the
viii of their superiors may indicate. 1t
is also to be deplOred that while the
majority of young men who 90 astray
in this vain race for fashion, are min
compoops and numbskulls, there is a
significant number among the foolish
ones who are capable of better things.
1t is therefore, all the more lamentable
to see brains and muscle going to the
wall for the lack of proper advice or
direction. If our young men of brains
could only be made to see that worldly
success depends on the forming, early
in life, of sound business principles,
and their constant rigorous observance,
the good things of life would be more
evenly distributed among men, and
there would be more domestic hap
piness and solid social enjoyment for
all. As it is, the grand result reaped
from sobriety, enterprise, brains, and
painstaking effort, are achieved and
enjoyed only by the sensible few, and
sO long as young men blindly follow
the bent of foolish indulgences and
petty pleasures, this Woodworking few
will continue to gather unto themselves
the golden sheaves of success. A man
cannot be man and drde at the same
time. A poor man car not wear kid
gloves and promenade in the streets.
There is no character in loafers and
hangers-on. What the age and the
nation want is character, time-tried
and fre-tested; and to character, labor
and snap, the nation will deliver her
wages, because the 1aborers of the
people are always worthy of their hire.
Wake up, young mani Go to work and
make your mark Witlian9SpO1 Break
fast Table.

Read the Death Roll.

Which the bills of mortality Of any
large city may be fifty designated, and
you will find that renal and vesical mala-
dies, that is to say, those that effect the
kidneys or bladder have a remarkable
prOminence-we had almost said-pre-
ponderance Brights disease and dia-
betes in the chronic stage are rarely cured
and gravel, satarrh of the bladder and en-
ulesis, Stay many. Yet at the outset
when the trouble merely amounts to mae
tivity of the organs involved, the danger
may be nullified by that pleasant rena-
tonic and diuretic, HosteIter's Stomach
Bitters, which imparts the requisite
amount of tone to the organs, without
over-exciting them, and the use of WHICH
is convenient, and involves no elaborate
preparation. Dyspepsia, a usual con-
comitant of renal complaints, and de
bility, which they invariably produce,
are remedied by it. So also are constipa-
tien, malarial, rheumatism and nervo US
ailments.

TIE Phvsicians have Found out


That a communicating and foreign ele-
ment in the blood, developed by indiges.
ton, is the cause of rheumatism. This
settles upon the sensitive sub-cutaneous
covering of the muscles and ligaments OF
the joints, causing constant and shifting
pain, and aggregating as a caleareOus,
chaIky deposit which produces stiffness
and distortion of the joints. No fact which
experience has demonstrated in regard to
IIestetter's Stomach Bitters has stronger
evidence to support than this, namely,
that this medicine of comprehensive uses
checks the formidN BILE and atrocious dis
ease. Nor is it less positively established
hat it is pre- ferable TO the poisons ofte
used to arrest it, since the medicine con-
tains only sanitary ingredients. 1t is also
a signal remedy tor. niaIarial feyers, con
stipation, dyspepsia, kidney and bladder
ailments, debility and other disorders. See

LANpv WATSON.

LANDY WATSON.
This name is familiar 10 many in
Bolivar, and throughout Hardeman
County He WAS born May 18th.
1925, and died january 9th, 1888.
Most of his life was spent in and
near Bolivar. Having been born
and raised in Bolivar myself, l
made his acquaintance in my early
boyhood, and have known him vel ]
almost all of my life, l knew him
to love him, and when ] heard that
he was dead [ wept, and felt in my
heart that another IIfe~long frien d
had gone. There is a man in Boil.
var who told me some msnths ago
that he had been praying fer Watson
for years. That man is a prevailel
with God. The last time | saw my
old friend was the Oath day of
Dece mber last, in Bolivar, He
was leaning upon his staff. Not
under the weight at years, but tn e
heavy hand of affection was upon
him. He told me then that in less
than month he would be dead /,
and he felt it. l told hIm of the man
who had been praying for him for
years. He ans wered 81 am so glad
SEINE one remem bers me-" A tear
which | see new fell from his eye.
And with on earnest, honest heart
be said "you pray for me-" I bid
hid good by with an exortation to
trust IN God. Who knows but he
like the dying thief in his last hours
heard from q merciful Christ "rhis
day shalt theu be with me in
aradise." Landy was strictly an
honest man. He w:.s unmista kably
the worst enemy to himself. And
save enc fault, no man can say that
he was ever guilty of one mean
thing, He was man Of prn cipal,
of tender feeling, and far above do
ing injustice or violsncet to his neigh
bsr, He was a man of fine busi~
ness qualifications, a quick ready
mind, and always give satisfaction
in energy and honesty to those who
employed him. He was loyal
citizen in time OF peace, and in war
good soldier. In 1861 he volun>
tered to defend what he conceded
to be his rights, under the Captain
cy of afterwards Gsneral) r. P.
Nicely as private in Company b.
of the Pillow Guards. Here, by
many whs survive him, know that
ne was true.
After the war he prOtesssd religion
and joined the IA. Is. Church South,
under the passionate of Rev. J. H.
Garrett, and for several years lived
a CONSTANT member.
But alas! for him and for the
world. That Whisky Devil
which has been a disgrace and a
curse to the town in which he was
reared; laid his hellIsh grasp ON him
AID ne fell. How far God only
knows. In this way some have gone
so far as never to be saved, But
if prayer with Gods people, and
penitence and struggle with Of
tending man to get to the Cross,
means anything. Then let fall
the charity on my friend l loved;
and hope in the great judgment
both he and l will be acquitted, and
live forever as friends and brethren
in the City Of God,
Peace to his ashes, AMI may it
be my lot before 1 &c hence to let
fall the tear of srrow and affection
on the little mound which marks
his last resting place. May God
bless and save his surviving family.
