row will say. There Is little or no enor.
TO push business at n period Of so much
uncertainty as TO the precise terms OF the
financial planks to be adopted by the great
political parties In tho national conyen-
tion. The general merchandise movement
continues ms duh and conservative IA here
tofore, retailers, with few exceptions, buy
ine only for immediate necessities. Mer-
camille collections continue slow and UNI
satisfactory, and there Is no gain In the
cotton. WOODEN goods. iron or steel indus-
tries.
General trade in central Western states
remains quiet. No Improvement is report
Cd from Chicago. as compared with un-
satisfactory records of recent weeks. I'm

Louis IL among dealers In paints AMI drugs.
Kansas City ard omaha report relatively
the best demand among Western Jobbing
centers. notably among Wholesalers of
dry goods, shoes and hats and agricultural
implements, Reports from Southern dis
tributlng conters announce an almost uni
formly quiet trade. although good rains in
the territory tributary to Charleston and
10 New orleans have improved the crop
outlook and Wholesale trade.

compared with twenty-nine last week;
twcnty-one in the week n year ago, and
thirty In the week two years ago.
X. G.. Dun & Coinpany's Weekly Re-
view of Trade, which issues tomorrow.
will say:
Speculative reaction has not In the least
changed the business outlook. The ficti-
tious prices made for wheat and cotton
meant no good except for individuals, and
the change to prices more nearly In ac-
cord with actual relations or demand and
supply only conforms 10 conditions which
have been we'll known for months. Tho
attack on stocks on Wednesday was 50
plainly artificial that Its influence passed
with the day, and neither foreign relations
or In domestic business WINS there anything
to Justify alarm.
1t is not the time to look for market
Improvement in industries. and the best
thing that can be said Of them is that
none have as yet been seriously disturbed
by threatened labor difficulties. 1t seems
not improbable that all such diticulties
may he %averted. except. perhaps, the con.
trovcrsy about wages Of iron puddlers ana

4 Card.

This is the last day in the year,
1895, and I now announce to all per-
sons who have employed me profes-
sionally, that I shall not, in the tu-
ture, practice medicine and surgery,
in the same manner, as heretofore
For twelve years I have travelled over
country 90 miles square, which
gives an intime of 400 square miles;
this country is greatly diversified and
clad with a climate exceedingly varla'
ble.-In order that I may be able to
counteract this rough travel, in order
that I may be able to withstand the
effects of an ever varying tempera-
ture, T have been compelled to keep
my own body continuously surcharged
with an almost incredible amount of
Alcohol and strychnine.-This class
of thing must cease, lest I cut short
my own life.
Daring these twelve years of hard
practice, over $4,000 have aggrt-
gated on my books uncollected, this
class of thing must cease, no busi-
ness in that feature Of work for me-
I have delivered, in this county, $40
children, have been paid fully for
all, except four.-I shall continue
the practice of midwifery.
I have great many personal
friends to whom I owe a debt of
gratitude, to such persons I will still
maintain a principle of loyalty and
fidelity under any and all circum
stances. have three reasons for cur
failing ny practice:
l. Preservation of my own health
compatible with first moral law.
2. I have written a book, titled
"Conjugal Onanism and the Secret
Vices of the Youth of Our Country"
their relation and effects on general
society-Aesthetic Society,--State,-- -
church,-family government-and a
probable eternity,-a remedy. This
book has been written under uufavor-
able conditions as to time-I need
time to re write it before going to
the printer.
3. I have children to educate, that
wish to give my personal attention.
Hereafter I will do an Office practice,
attend the needs of personal friends
and meet the demands of midwifery.
I am compelled to shut my hand
against this pell-mell practice.
Respectfully NJ. @. HENDRIX.

A Significant Departure.

With the departure of another year
when a review is made of the condi-
ton of affairs, it is only right that
some thought be given to the physi-
cal body which enables everyone to
battle with life's problem and figure
for themselves the profit or loss on
the trial balance sheet. Though the
bank account may be large and each
ones material gain be great, it would
not be surprising if it suddenly upon
many that good health has been
greatly impoverished by the low con-
dition of the blood. 1t is in this
state that the Tactic acid in the vital
fluid attacks the fbrous tissues, par
ticularly the joints, making known
the local manifestations Of rheuma-
tism. Thousands of people Lave
found in Hoods Sarsaparilla the
great blood purifier, a positive and
permanent cure for rheumatism.

Happenings Along the River Side.
To the Editor of the Dispatch:

The beautiful weather which
brought Christmas has made it g
lovely one indeed; your scribe must
say that he has enjoyed it ever SO
we'll, especially the pleasure trip.
The young folks are heartily pass
ing the holidays away in sociable
parties. One was given at the resi-
dence of Mr.. Sidney Fulmer last
Thursday night which was one Of
the most lovely entertainments ever
witnessed by the writer, the crowd
was civil, and it seemed as if though
they had come to entertain one an
other and keep good order which
they did, it was SO quiet and peacable
that an oath was not to be heard
from anyone.
I am sad indeed to inform you Of
the death of Mr.. Levi Amick. He de-
parted from this life Thursday night
between nine and ten o'clock. His
death was calm and full of anxiety
to reach better world. He was an
aged father, and leaves a wife and
three children to mourn his loss; he
was gallant soldier in the civil war
a good neighbor, admirable husband
and loving father. His body was in
tered in the Macedonia cemetery,
with large congregation present on
Saturday morning at 10 o'clock.
