The following decision has been received
from the law court.
City of Augusta VS.. Inhabitants of Mercer.
Rescrtpt-Un the act of 1875, chapter
q, supplies furnished to relieve the distress
of a soldier, to operate as pauper supplies and
prevent his gaining a new pauper settlement,
must have been furnished to relieve distress
not occasioned lin consequence of an injury
sustained in the service"
The evidence authorized the jury to find
that the supplies furnished in June 1880 were
not of this character and, therefore, operated
to interrupt five consecutive years residence of
the sol lier in plaintiff city prior to the furnish
ing of the supplies sued for. and furnished in
March and April 1885. The act of 1875 par
tally, and the act of 1885 completely, save
the exception contained in it, removed pauper
disabilities from soldiers whose distress calls
for relief under the pauper laws of the State.
Under either act supplies furnished to re-
licve a soldier from distress may be recover
ed of the town charged with his legal settle
msnt.
The charge of the presiding judge so de-
clared the law and the evidence fully sus-
tans the verdict.
Motion and exceptions overruled.

Hartford 'Courant, one of the best,
cleanest and most influential journals
in New England. He at once became
identified with the politics of his state.
not as machine politician. or politi-
cal boss. but as representing broad and
wise policies. In 1866 he was elected
governor of Connecticut against the
most popular Democrat in the state, j.
Z. English. His influence soon spread
outward until he became power in
national politics.
When the Republican National Con-
vention met in 1868 it was practically to
confirm the wish of the people by the
nomination of General Grant for the
presidency; but other names were be-
fore the convention, and General Haw-
ley was very favorably considered. He
was chosen as permanent president of
the convention.
He was elected to the forty-second
congress which met March 4th, 1871.
He at once took active part in the pro-
ceedings and debates. and was recng-
nized as forcible speaker, with quick
perception and marked industry. He
had all the requisites for success in a
parliamentary body.
He was prominent member of the
convention in 1872, and was chairman
of the committee ON resolutions. He
was equally honored in 20 and was
mentioned favorably for the first place
on the ticket. He was made chairman
of the Louisiana investigating commit
tee to decide the contest between
Packard and Nichols for the governor
ship.
Every presidential year his name has
been before the. people rs an available
candidate, but he has had no boom nor
has ho been an aggressive candidate. His
financial policy has been sound and
honest. In an earnest and impressive
speech made to the Republican conven-
ton upon assuming the craftsmanship
already referred to. he forcibly rebuked
some of the current financial heresies
then atioat, and insisted that the full
demands upon the nations honor should
be fulfilled He said: For every
dollar of the national debt the blood of
soldier is pledged. Every bond, in
letter and in spirit, must be as sacred
as soldiers grave"
Such are the men the HERALD favors
to head the Republican ticket next fall
and we believe they can lead US to
victory.

writes: Early last winter my daughter

settled on her lungs. We tried several
medicines, none of which seemed to do
her any good but she continued to get
worse, and finally raised large amounts
of blood from her lungs. We called in
a family physician, but he failed to do
her any good. At this time a friend,
who had been cured by DR.. VIM. Halls
Balsam For The Lungs, advised me to
give 1t trial. We then got i bottle,
and she began to improve, and by the
use of three bottles was entirely cured.

Patronage vs. Policies.

The deplorable fact that there is more
political strength in patronage than in
policies is shown in the attitude of some
of the Southern states toward MIR.
Cleveland. There is no portion of the
union wherethe principle of Protection
of American Industries applies with
more force than in the states of Alabam a
and Georgia. The industries that are
springing up in these states would re-
ceiye a set back from which it would
take years to recover, were the free
trade principles of Mr.. Cleveland ad-
opted Many realize this and feel in
clined to combat the free trade idea,
but the habit of swallowing anything
that is Democratic, and the lavish DE.
stowal of federal patronage upon ex-
confederates, so blinds their eyes that
they will give Mr.. Cleveland their
somewhat unwilling support.
