MANS HERITAGE.
A Peculiar Blessing Handed Down From
heaven to the Children of r1en.

In the beginning, before God Gre
ated mankind, He prepared for his
coming. Natures storehouse was
abundantly filled with all mans needs
in sickness and in health-for God
knew to what his fall would lead, and
accordingly prepared, in mercy, the
herbs, roots and barks, after their sew
eral kinds. and endowed Man with
wisdom to find therein a boon for all
the ills to which the human flesh
might fall heir, through transgression
In after yearS a man went forth to
search and God rewarded his efforts
by revealing to him the ingredients to
prepare the formula of what to-day
stands prominently at the head OF
all other remedies in it's class: hered1-

THE BOTTOM OF 1T.

OF course there is nothing in
the stories from Omaha of a Fs-
MAN invasion of Canada. Such a
thing would not be possible,
even if any one wished to under
take it. But the talk serves %
worry the English, to bring some
potriots again before the public
who have not been heard of in
recent years and perhaps to
stimulate contributions to the
s~kirmishing fund.
There has not been anything
lately to indi cate the condition Of
Nationalist sentiment in Ireland
but it is reasonable the expect
that the present complications in
Africa would furnish opportuni-
ty for some kind of anti-English
agitation. When the Irish cause
was apparently strongest. how-
ever, the schemes Of military
enterprise on this side of the
Atlantic never rose to the dignity
of serious endeavor and they are
likely to receive still less consid-
GRAFTON now.
The main purpose Of this
Omaha sensation is probably tt
annoy the English and get then
to saying ugly things abou; the
United States, which r ex,
pected to annoy Americans il
turn, and thus to disturb the
good relations between the two
countries. To this end ever
a paper raid on Canada may b.
serviceable, though it need no
cause much excitement.

Secretary Gage is one Of the

He committed q grievous miss
take in first designating a single

This act of the Secretary has
been severely criticised, ard we
are truly glad to notice that S C.

Mr.. Roberts, Treasurer of the
United States, to say that the

Their plan is as follows: TIE

MIR 2ucker says that he WI
compel tpe court in which to

the following points:
1. That She constitution places
both precious metals, gold and
silver, on an equal basis as
money.
Under the constitution the
government has no hand in the
demonetiz alton or lowering o.
the value of one or the other
It's duty is to emit the silver do
lar at it's full value.
8. After the stamping of the
dollar and emitting it into circu
lation, the government has NJ
hand or voice in the way it sbal
be regarded as the medium Of ex'
change.
4. The state and individual
have the right to demand from
the government that this bullion
be coined at the full value as
fixed by constitutional provision
regardless Of any contract in tn
financial markets as to the rati'
of values.
We do not imagine that an,
court will find great difficulty i
passing upon these claims, but
is rather rough upon the peopl
of ColdEado to be compelled t
pay the expenses of such a foe
suit.
Thomas and Rucker are Der

The best type of draft horses in the
local market are known as brewers
horses. These big fellows bring $500
pair, twice what they did two years
ago, and are very scarce at that figure.
The recent torrid weather killed horses
by the hundreds, and there Is big de-
mand for animals to fill their places.
Big horses are scarce in the western
market on account of the heavy ship
ments that have been made to England,
Germany and South Africa.
Pennsylvania dealers and breeders
are much encouraged over the outlook
for the next few years. Their horses
always command a better figure than
the western horses, as they are ac-
climated and less liable to disease.

PEACH and APPLE CROP
Reported Above the Ten Year
Average in the Princi-
pal Producing States.

At this season of the year house
wives are interested in the peach crop,
as it is the time when buffers and pre-
ned for next winters consumption.
Within the next month or two the
winters supply of apples will also be
laid in, and interest is felt in the gen.
eral apple crop of the country. While
peaches are failure in this immediate
yet the price is controlled by the crop
conditions in few states, and not only
by local conditions.
The government crop report, just is
sued, shows a good general crop of both
these fruits, and prices ought to come
down to a point where it will pay 10
buy them for canning.
The government report with reference
to the peach and apple crop is as fol-
lows:
while there was a decline during
August in the condition of apples in
almost every state that makes any i'm
portant contribution Of the apple crop
of the country, the condition is still far
above the ten-year average in Maine,
New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Michi-
gan, Illinois, Iowa, Kansas and North
Carolina, all leading apple producing
states.
1.-The peach crops of North Carolina,
South Carolina, Mississippi and Ten
nessee are double the ten-year average,
those OF Virginia and Georgia more
than double and those of Texas and
Alabama nearly double. That of Ar
kansas is more than so per cent above
the ten-year average. California falls
seven points behind such average"
