in our district for many years was at Judge

his charming wife kindly gave the use Of his
pleasant house for the amusement Of the young

occasions, and without her energy we would
be as dultas are the inhabitants Of the arctic
region. There was a supper Of all the luxu-
ries ofout locality-good music and so many
dear charming girls and gallant young men
that 10 name them, might he making invid-
ious comparisons. Ifyou want to see beauty
and grace aud female perfection come to the
5th district. Among those present was Or.
McGarrah, from Pittsburg, young NJ D.,
seeking locstion--he was charmed with the
hospitality aud geniality Of our people, but
wheu heard that doctor could not make one
or two hundred dollars a mouth, he took the
next train for the north, saying | made SIOO

ments when | was a boy, and Carnegie's
skilled laborers make $500 or $500 pc, month,
and If skilled doctor cant do this, think
your people should die without medical aid.
