SWATE LAWS.
what HAS Reen Done by the Law
makers.

A Trenton correspondent figures it
that the total number Of bills intro
duced TO date at 7S6, [say SEQ in round
aumbers) before the close of the week
aud probable close of the session. OF
these 4s6 are House bills and 296 Sem
ate bills. Besides these there are II
joint resolutions and two concurrent
resolutions. Seven hundred bills is
not an unusual number TO be intro
dueed at one session. but il would be
remarkable if that number should be-
come law. The average number of
laws enacted at a session prior to the
war was 1872. In 1864 the total rose to
446, the largest number in twenty years.
The days Of special legislation and a
prosperous lobby extended to 1873
with continual Increase in the NUM-
Der of laws. In that year 723, out OF q
tritie over / 1,6o0 bills, became law That
was the top notcl2, and the people
We're ready to adopt q new Constitu-
ton as g. safeguard against pernicious
legislation. In 1876 the bills fell in
number, and prolonged session of
fifteen weeks only resulted in 213 laws,
g reduction of sic from 1873. During
the last thirteen years the average
nnmber of laws enacted has been PCS.
The largest number during that period
was S37, enacted last year, This legis-
lature has employed a great deal of its
time in undoing the work of the last
session, thus piling up work for neEt
year.

SHOE FACTORY BUSY.
Plenty OF Orders and Making
Fine Goods.

The Rice 81 Co. s shoe factory Is run
ming on full time, and making line OF
goods that would do credit to any
factory in the country. This company
is constantly busy upon large orders,
and their large force is employed every
hour of the working time in putting to-
gether the shoes that are so fast gain
ing reputation all over the country.
The factory has become most formid-
able one now, increasing in size and
capacity largely since it was first
started. Not only the ordinary goods
are made in this factory, but the very
finest machine made goods that are
handled in any shoe market. Not only
the day in and day out sort of shoe,
but the fancy shoe, which makes the
graceful foot of o. lady superb picture
to look at One of the latest conceits
for the afternoon promenade, an Ok
ford tie of ooze calf, kid, or dongola is
the proper thing. Medium heels and
toes, somewhat similar to the common
sense, though not quite SO broad, is
the style as to shape, but for color and
shade it is as varied as that of dress
goods. Green, in its several shades, is
quite popular; tan and mouse are
rivals while coffee and russet are re.
garded as standard. A very pretty
Oxford tie for indoor wear is made
from bright orange ooze, piped around
the top and lace front with a narrow
piping of black ooze. But that more
commonly worn will be of green, tan,
coffee, or russet in color, with open
work at the lace front and ornamented
with beads OF different color, but of
shade to blend with that of the vamp

vim nuts and dozens and dozens Of
oranges. Identified the key as the
one that fit the lock OF Parvin's shed.
Jesse Hoffman said that Gaberino
told him he would settle the matter
for $50.
Frank B. Williams, E. D. Evans and
G. H. Barnes testified as to Parvin's
good character.
This was the evidence and few in the
room thought Council would be five
minutes in declaring the officer not
guilty. The room was cleared and an
informal vote was taken, which cleared
Mr.. Parvin, by q vote of Z to 5. Then
another vote was taken and the charge
was not sustained by vote Of s to A.
After this the resolution was recon
sidered and the charge sustained by a
vote Of II to l, Mr. Jerrell voting for
the officer. President Probasco and
others voted that the officer was guilty
OF unlawfully entering the store, but
not with evil intent.
The meeting was a decidedly werm
one, and before adjournment, Council
resolved to continue the suspension
until the next regular meeting.
When the result was announced
down stairs, there was general sur
prise expressed.

Another Fire.

VineiaRd seems to be unfortunate
from fire, the last visitor being at the
farm of John Williamson, on Wednes-
day. The loss was $2, 900. He had an
insurance of $500 on the house, but
nothing on contents. He' also loses
several hundred bushels of grain, a
fine lot of hay, fodder and oates in
stack unthreshed, also all his wagons,
harness and farming implements, crib
house, wagon house and other proper
ty. The stacks were on fire when he
awoi5e and as two of them were situ-
ated some distance from the third one
and in a direction that precluded any
possibility of sparks being carried by
the wind, it is evident they were all
fired about the same time He found
pint bottle abont half full of whishey
back of the barn, also number of
matches. He thinks the fire was start
ed by q tramp, as he refused to let one
sleep in his barn q few nights ago.

Good Prospects.

The prospects for fruit during the
coming summer are excellent, but the
dread ''yellows" which is creating such
sad havoc among the peach orchards,
it is feared will ruin the crop. The
past winter has been a good one
for fruit trees, and all of them are well
advanced. Farmers say that it is only
question of a very short time when
the "yellows'' win entirely clean out
he peach trees in this section. No
remedy for this complaint can be dis
covered

A sad Case.

In the county prison George Brady
lies dying Only few short months
ago he was. arrested for stealing at the
home of Harris Ogden, aad confessed
to his crime, and implicated Walter
Hay with the crime. Brady was to be
witness against Hay and the Court
suspended sentence at the January
term of Court. At that time George
Brady was strong well built fellow,
and it did not seem possible that he
would at this time be SO near deaths
door. Since then, about month Brady
was seized with rheumatism aad his sui
ferings have been beyond description.
Night and day he has been unable to
rest, and death, it seems, would be
relief. Drs. Thompson and Dare, the
County Physicians, have done al in
their power to relieve the lEan, without
success, and his physicians say he mast
die. 1t is a sad case, and it is to be
hoped that in some way Brady may
be liberated before he dies.

Be Merciful to Yourself,

And heed the appeals for assistance put
forth by your liver, when the organ is out
az order. Among these are distress in the
right side and through the right shoulder
blade, yellowuess of the skin and eyeballs,
furred tongue, sour breath, sick headache,
and, above all irregularity Of the bowels.
The mercy you extend to the afflicted organ
is wisely shown by a prompt course of med
ication with Hostetter's stomach bitters,
most genial of alternatives, and the hepatic
gland early reciprocates the deserved at
tention by resuming its secretive functions
actively and regularly. Among the accom-
panying good results are renewed diges-
rion, freedom from headaches, and re
sumption of activity of the bowels. All
bilious symptoms disappear, and appetite
and sleep improve. Benefcent are the
effects of the bitters in mal4rial disease,
kidney disorder, rheumatic ailments and
nervousness.
