The Valley Virginiaa points out

The Valley Viryiniaa points ont
the improperly and indelicacy of
delegations of Republican politicians
calling upon President Harrison IN
the interest of official representation
for this section or that. 1t rightly
argues that Harrison will be the
President of the whole county,
has right to consult his own will,
and claim upon the confidence of
the party that should not be dis
placed by the politicians of any sec
tion.
We think it is in bad taste and
is worse policy for Southern Republic
cans to be posing before the country
aud the President-elect as a separ-
ate and distinct people from the Re-
publicans of the whole country.
And it IS especially indicate for
them to form into delegations to
present the claims of the South for
a Cabinet position. The observance
of reasonable degree of modesty,
self.restraint and selfrespect will go
much farther in commanding the
attention of the President than so
much stir and clamor and resolving
as has been going on among South
ern Republicans for a month past.
The properties of the occasion
should suggest some reserve at least,
and halt to the visiting delegation
business as entirely out OF place.

The Old, Old Home.

When | long for sainted memories,
Like angel troops they come,
If Ifold my arms to ponder
On the old, old home.
The heart has many passages
Through which the feelings roam,
But its middle aisle is sacred
To the old, old home.
Where infancy was sheltered
Like rosebuds from the blast;
Where childhood IS brief elysium
In joyousness was passed
To that sweet spot forever,
As to some hallowed dome,
Life's pilgrim bends his vision
To the old, old home.
A father sat how proudly
By the old hearthstone rays,
And told his children stories
Of his early manhood days;
And one soft eye was beaming.
From child to child t'would roam
Thus a mother counts her treasures
In the old, old home.
The birthday gifts and festivals,
The blended vesper hymn,
Some dear one who was swelling it
Is with the seraphim.
The fond good-nights at bedtime,
How quiet sleep would come
And fold us all together,
In the old, old home.
Like wreath of scented flowers,
Close intertwined each heart;
But time and change in concert
Have blown the wreath apart
But dear and sainted memories
Like angels ever come,
When / fold my arms and ponder
On the old, old home.

Are we to Have Another War,

Some political prophets aver than we shall.
Be that as it may, the battle waged by medi-
cal science against disease will never cease
until we arrive at that utopian epoch when
the human family shall cease TO be afflicted
with bodily ailments. One of the most po-
tent weapons which the armory of medicine
furnishes, is Hostetter's Stomach Bitters
which is of special utility as a family remedy,
as it is adapted to the immediate relief and III
Innate cure OF those disorders of the stomach
liver and bowels which are of commonest oc-
currence. Indigestion. biliousness and con.
stipation are inseparable companions, and
these ailments are completely eradicated by
the Bitters. But the remedial scope Of this
superlatively wholesome and genial medicine
takes in also nervous ailments. rheumatism
and kidney troubles, its action in these, as In
the other complaints, being characterized by
uneQualed thoroughness.
