a curative agent in certain chronic cases,
notably rheumatism, has excited much
interest among electricians aud ell classes
OF workmen engaged in handling hea-
Vily-charged wires. Numerous cases are
cited in different parts OF the country to
prove that men engaged N these EN-
Payments are free from all rheumatic

How n Farmer NaFre1iy Escaped be-
ing Hwindled.

A Middleton N. " special to the
New York ziDcs says The Ohio Grain
and Seed Company. of Cincinnati, has
an agent operating what is believed to
be a swindling game IN the southern
tier counties of this state. A Delaware
county farmer, who came near beng
caught in the net, gives the follow
inc account OF his experience A
man of business like appearance and
address called upon him, represent
ing himself as "a agent for the
Ohio Grain and Seed Company, and
Offering for sale an alleged new variety
OF wheat for seeding purposes, styled
"Fold medal wheat" The agent repre-
sented that the variety WAS something
new. and OF which his company con-
troiled the whole supply in the coun-
try, and he exhibited TO the farmer q
lot OF certificates alleged 10 be signed
by prominent western wheat-growers,
stating that they had tried tho new KIND
and had found it eKtraorG ;nsrily prolific
and valuable for Touring uses. The agent
offered to sell the farmer ten bushels
of the seed wheat, to be sowed this fall,
at Sl5 a bushel and TO take a note for the
amount (Sl50, payable on the lst OF
next July, and to secure the farmer
against any possible loss in the trans
action the seed company would give him
c bond agreeing to pay him Sl6 bushel
for ten bushels Of his crop and 50 a
bushe for all be rnised in excess Of that
quantity. The agent figured that eight
acres Of land seeded with ten bushels Of
this wonderfully valuable variety Of
wheat would return = crop Of 500 bush
els OF the value of not less than 81, 800.
The farmer was csptiyated With the
prospect OF big profits in whest-growing,
and gave the agent an order FOR ten
bushels of seed aud his note for $3.50,
taking a receipt and bond as specified.
But the agent had hardly got out Of
sight and given the farmer little chance
for reflection when CLEAN Of
ell picion entered the eranger's mind
that he had been made the
victim of a swndlo similar TO the " BO-
hemian oats" fraud that was quite ex-
tensi7oly practiced few years ago. He
consulted q neighbor about the matter,
and his suspicious were confirmed by
finding out that the secd agent had Of
fered bis note for sale TO this neighbor
a. liberal discount from its face value.
On learning this the farmer hitched up his
borss and started in pursuit Of the seed
man, whom no overlook at Hancock
just as he was about boarding an Erie
railroad train. At first tho fellow put on
bold face, claiming that the trsnsac-
ton WIS legitimate add thSt he had for
varded the note to his company mt Gin
causati, hat when threatened with sum-
mary arrest he gave I'D the note 10 the
maker. The scod-wh-at sharper will
undoubtedly be heard OF again.

Virginia.


The Democrats OF Virginia would be
Unused il they could read some OF the
paragraphs and articles which appear in
northern Republican journals intended
10 show that there is fine prospect that
Virginia will this year desert the solid
Bouth and unite her fortunes with those
pf the malignant North. The further
from Virginia the authors Of tho said
paragraphs and letters live the more con
ndent is the tone Of their predictions in
ihis behalf. These predictions are based
npon information furnished 10 the Re-
publican National Committee by Jealous
Republicans in this State, or possibly by
tnercensry Republicans who desire 10
yet their hands into the capscious peck
cts OF Mr.. LEVI 7. MoEroE, or those Of
Shat committee. II would he very plea
sant for General MAHosE and his county
rhairmen 10 have il within their power
80 expend hundred thousand
dollars in virginia during the next two
months. Think Of the connection that
would follow the announcement that the
Republican county chairman Of each
county had received from the National
Committee a thousand dollars to expend
amongst the faithful in addition TO the
contributions expected to be furnished
by the thrifty Republicans at home. BY
the WAY. does anybody know how much
General MALONE habitually contributes
out Of his own pocket in n presidential,
pr congressional, or a guberuatorial, or
D legislatorial campaign
A little boasting on the part OF the
Virginia Republicans may be allowable.
ii they choose 10 mislead their northern
allies in the hope of getting money from
shem. or because "the wish is father to
the thought" when they announce that
UAmIsoS and MORTON arc gaining
ground in Virginia, it is their own con-
rern. But when upon the strength of
these Interpretations northern Re
publican journals tell their readers
that a dlsgraceful campaign is go
sng on here, it is time for
ihe real people of Virginia to pro-
test. The leading Republican journal
In Ohio reported a few days ago the
Democratic campaign in Virginia cas-
becoming quite spirited, and after say
tng thst Democratic orators are howl
ing in every county" and "liquor and
money flowing copiously," brags as fol-
lows:
"The Republicans Of the Old Do
ninion are alive III this campaign and
are making the Democrats hump them
pelves as they have not bumped since
Grant was down there with his army"
Our Cincinnati contemporary might as
well have announced that there was no
hope for Republican success in this
State. for whenever the Democrats
"hump themselves as they have not
bumped since GRANT was down here
with his army" they carry the day.
There is no longer room for doubt when
the Democrats put on their war paint"
They arc certain to achieve victory
whenever they "snuff danger in the
breeze" They gain their greatest
friumphs when their opponents put
forth their greatest efforts.
A word to the wise Democrats Of the
Old Dominion is sufficient.
