Hon. VIM. L. Wilson never appeared to
greater advantage, both as an American and
as Democrat, than in his speech at the
dinner which was given in his honor in Lon
don. As the guest of the occasion he was
courteous and diguifed, but he did not for.
get his principles or his country. He warn
ed the gentlemen who were his hosts that
his labors for tariff reform were intended
and calculated to enable the United States
TO wrest from Great Britain her commercial
ana maritime supremacy.-N y World

There are no words in the English yocabu-
larry too mean for use by the Martinsburg
Herald in its abuse of Col. G.. W 4. Black
and Hon. J. d. Butt-ihe one having an
nounced his determination to vote for Hon
VIM l.. Wilson and the other having ex-
pressed the opinion that Mr. Wilson cannot
be defeated by Mr.. Dayton. Ii is not de-
MED that Mr.. DAYTON exercised his right on
several occasions 10 vote for Democratic
nominees and against his own party men
BY doing so did Mr. Dayton become pan
deriug political trickster,' or an "Iscariot
in American politics ?' No Democratic
paper has been so indecent As to say so.

Tennyson on Spring.

We have the word of Afford Tennyson
for it that in the spring the young mans
fancies lightly turn to thoughts of love.
1t is singular that the great laureate
omitted to mention the fact that it is in
the spring that considerable portion of
the human race turn to taking Hoods
Sarsaparilla. Probably nothing but the
difficulty of finding a good rhyme for
that invaluable remedy deferred him.
Certain it is that the old-time domestic
remedies are generally discarded in favor
of the standard blood purifier, Hoods
Sarsaparilla, which has attained the
greatest popularity all over the country
as the favorite Spring Medicine. ltpuri-
fies the blood and gives nerve, mental,
bodily and digestive strength.

THE RAIN FALL AND CROP OUTLOOK.
 The welcome rain of Saturday night fell to the depth of one and one-sixteenth inches. It has given the country an en- tirely different aspect. Meadows are be- ginning to look green. Corn leaves are unrolled and with the shade offered by the foliage the moisture will be prevent ed from evaporating rapidly. The pota- to crop is given up as it is too far gone from the combined effects of drought and blight. Tobacco has generally grown well on most pieces. Topping will be quite general in early pieces. Fully three quarters of the hay crop is secured and few pieces of oats. So far the crop is proving better than was antici- pated. Late pieces have suffered the most. which will be shown in light and imperfect kernels.
