GOOD HOME REMEDIES.
Various Uses to Which Turpentine Can
Be Put in the Household.

Various Uses to Which Turpentinc Can
Be Put in the Household.
Every household medicine closet should
contain bottle of spirits Of turpentine, to
be used not only as medicine, but for
variety Of other purposes, writes Maria
Parloa in the Housewife. Here are some Of
the uses to which it can be put:
Old furniture that has dull, greasy look
should be rubbed with turpentine and then
polished with any good polish. The inn
provement in its appearance will well repay
you for the trouble. White spots on furni-
ture can be removed by wettIng piece of
flannel with turpentine and then rubbing
the spot hard. 1t may require several ap-
plications of turpentine and consider
able patience and strength for the
rubbing for some obstinate places, but the
worst spot will yield in time. If the white
spot was caused by the spilling of an
alcoholic substance, it viii be easy to
cfface it; but heat and some other agents
make marks which are more difficult to OBJ
lterate.
Grease on clothing can be removed by wet
ting piece of flannelwith turpentine and
rub bing vigorously. Perhaps it will require
several applications of the spirits. Still,
the reward will come in the end. Benzine,
chloroform and ether oil are good for this
purpose, but turpentine, although it is like
~ to show an enlarged ring on delicate
fabric, does not change the colors, as
alcohol and ether sometim es do, and is per-
fectly safe for even inexperienced people
to USE For coarse fabrics, like mems
clothes, it viii be found particularly vaiu-
able. 1t will take out wheel grease and
other kinds of spots quickly and without
damaging the cloth.
For medicinal purposes turpentiue may be
employed in many ways. For pain in the
stomach, bowels, kidneys or bladder, dip q
large piece of flannel in hot water, and after
wringing it saturate it with turpentine.
Lay this cloth on the seat of pain and cover
with another piece of flannel or towel. II
the patient be in great pain, at the end or
twenty minutes or half an hour wiring the
flannel from hot water and saturate it with
turpentine. 1t is a rare thing that more
than the second application has to be made.
In severe cases it is better to apply the tur.
pentine with lard rather than hot water.
nix the turpentine in the proportion of a
tablespoonful to an equal quantity Of
lard and spread on the flannel This
preparation can be kept on for hours with
out disturbing the patient, whereas that
made with hot water Will, as rule, have to
be removed in half an hour or less time.
Where bloating of the bowels occurs from
the accumulation OF gas. ten drops Of tur-
pentine ON lump Of sugar or teaspoonful
Of granulated sugar, taken internally
three doses in twelve hours-wiu afford re-
lief. In severe cases the dose is often a.
large as a teaspoonful; but this should be
only by PHYSICIANS advice. In boating
Of the bowels in dysentery, half a teaspoon
full OF turpentine in dose Of castor-oi will
relieve the patient

REST.
Sweet rest. dear rest,

Sweet rest, dear rest,
Thou art the besti
Go. children, go In pleasures quest
Go have your song and dance and mirth;
/, too, have felt the youthful zest
That gives those winning pleasures worth
But somehow as the winters fit,
The thing on earth that seems the best,
As in my easy chair sit
When CLOVIS the fire and lamps are lit
Is rest dear rest.
Then, children, go in pleasures quest,
I'd rather rest
Sweet rest, dear rest,
Thou art the besti
From this dear corner by the fire
How family sounds earth's jarring call;
The golden aims Of youths desire
Times dlmming touch is on them all.
Yet swells my heart with deep content
To find this compensation blest:
Along with sense Of powers spent
And failing strength, is sweetly blent
The blessedness of well-earned rest
Then go, dear friends, pursue your quest,
Leave me to rest.
Sweet rest. dear rest,
Thou art the bestl
mind me how, when life was young
And bright the years before me roued,
One shadow DER the future hung
1t seemed SO dreadful 10 grow old.
But now life's autumn season nears
And seems OF all my life the best;
bid my heart dismiss its fears,
know that lfe's declining years
Shall bring sweet resi-.
Go, friends, life hath not lost its zest
But sweet is rest.

OLYMPIA. FRIDAY EVENING, APRIL 5. 1859.
LET HARMONY PREVAIL.

The Vancouver Register, a few days
ago, took occasion to find fault with
the Democratic papers OF the Territory
for suggesting that the workeof the
Constitutional Convention should be
n9n-partisan in character, and that to
secure this, men of ability and learning
should be selected, without reference
to party affiliations. AS the STANDARD
was probably the first to advance the
i!ea, and the Democratic papers are
not rs numerous as the blades of grass
in springtime, it seems to be quite
probable that it is our corns that are
now in infinite danger of being
crushed by the iron heel of this par
tisan jockey who is 50 zealously groom
ing the Republican party. Is is
proper, therefore, that We should give
some reason for the "faith that is with
in us," and likewise show that there
was no intention to delude anybody,
as the yigilant herald seems to at once
have assumed.
1t must be admitted that reliance
upon party machinery for the support
of principle, is at times futile. 1t is at
best an imperfect means for attainment
of the object sought. 1t is subject to
abuses that frequently defeat the will OF
individual sovereign at the only time
his hand touches the scepter, at the
polls But there are fundamental
principles upon which all can agree.
These are the corncr-stones upon which
it is proposed TO erect the fabric OF
State. The duty of placing them in
line is too sacred trust to become
the subject of barter at the hustings.
The obligation of the voter when he
deposits this ballot is too weighty to be
subjected to the arts of the party DEM
agogue or the thimble-rigging schemes
Of vest-pocket politicians which are ia
ken out and set in motion whenever
popular election is held. 1t would be
far better to ignore the methods which
have taken possession Of party usage,
and, on this occasion, allow an express
sion Of calm, clear, deliberate judgment.
This was the expression of the STAN
BARD as soon as the Omnibus bill was
passed, and it met with universal en-
dorsement. Nobody then saw, nor do
We think there are many who now zee,
the outlines of . cat under the meal.
Had partisanship prompted the sug-
gestion instead OF desire to promote
the public veal, it would have been for
. vigorous and aggressive partisan poll
cy, with view Of making the consti-
tuition so ultra in those recognized ten
cts of the Republican faith that it
would of necessity be rejected by the
people, or if adopted would set in mo-
ton . whirlwind that would speedily
sweep it from power.
Tho Register viii discover that in the
consideration of matters of such grav'
ity as are now presented, there will be
: loosening of party ties, or any other
fettes, that prevent . full and fair
consideration Of the subject. We
are making history for posterity
upon which depends its veal or woe
The work must be well done, and he
who couneels any course that will dis
turb the harmony that should prevail
Il, whether intentionally or not, an
enemy to the public welfare.

The Secretary Of the Interior, on
March I'd, affirmed the decision Of the
Commissioner and local officers of the
Seattle Land Office, cancelling seven
teen entries in WhatcOm county,
known as the Stinson-Park entries
The trial over these entries lasted
tweuty-six days, at Olympia, in 1887,
and one hundred and thirty.fve thous-
and words Of testimony was taken, the
Government being represented by
Special Agent, ]. M. Carson, and
Stinson 4 Park, transferees, by Jacobs,
Jenner and Eben Smith. of Seattle.
Last Saturday, these entries were all
cancelled on the books at the Seattle
Land Office, and Monday, April LIST,
forty-five men were standing at the
Land Office door, long before the time
of opening, eager to get filings
on the came. This was considered a
test case, and was holly contested by
both sides. This action of the depart
ment opens up 2,720 acres to entry,
and is the cream of the timber lands
of that section of Whatcom county.

The /. B. Neener whose appoint
mont ~ Minister to the South Amer
lean republics, was announced in our
dispatches yesterday, is probably the
Hon. L. B. Miner, OF Benicia, CAL,
hall brother of Eugene Semple, who
many Of our citisens will recollect as
visiting Olympia during the session Of
the last Legislature.
Mr.. Misner was ths Republican
Elector of California who carried the
Harrison vote to Washington. and has
heretofore been mentioned for the
Aeyicau mission. He speaks the
spGlksh language 6uently, having &C.
qnized il while in South America with
hi stepiather, General Semple, OF ILL
nois. who was American Minister to
New Granada under Van Buren, and
Tyler. He served with distinction in
the Mexican war, his knowledge Of the
language caneing him to, be sent on
numerous scouting expeditions, in
which he exhibited great tact, courage
aud endurance.
4 ~. Mixner.has been . resident of
California eince 1S49. being amongst
the iirst 70 settle in the country that
had been added to the Union as re-
suit Of the war in which he had taken
: conspicuous part. He has held nu-
merous positions of prominence there
and il one Of the most popular men in
10 the State.
The new minister is in full sympa-
thy with the idea of vigorous policy
for this Republic, rs was evinced by
the lingo" speech he made at the
banquet at Young's Hotel in this city,
snd which was 80 loudly applauded.
IT is proposed by Murat Ha!stead's
friends, that in the event of Repub-
lican legislature being chosen in No
vember, his friends will demand a vim
dicstion for him, and with q Republi-
can legislature, will send him to the
Senate. Both Foraker and Foster
win have to sand aside in his favor.
The work of vindication win probably
be initiated by placing him at the
head Of the Republican ticket for
Governor, 80 as to give him double
chance. Prominent Republicans, who
ere indignant at the attempt of the
Senate to muzzle the press, are join
ing enthusiastically in the movement,
and Democrats, who are also Disguised
At Halstead's treatment, will lend their
support. The only thing necessary to
send Mr.. Halstead to the Senate is,
under the above contingency, that
own consent, and init
mate personal friends of his declare
That will be given readily. The feeling
Of indignation is especially intense, as

been chosen.
