There are six of the performers—the oldest not more than sixteen and the youngest hardly seven years of age—and they presented a very attractive and pleasing programme. The unicycle riding by two lads and two young misses, was very fine and was greatly admired. The torch scene was especially beautiful. The bicycle riding was wonderful. The race for the bouquet between four performers on bicycles exhibited marvelous skill in holding these difficult machines. But the crowning feat of the evening was that in which fear of the bicycle riders gyrated around on the surface of a circular table only four feet in diameter. This performance elicited a great deal of applause Two little tots, who rode bicycles with remarkable agility, were greatly admired. The performance is well worth seeing, and has not a single feature that does not delight an audience— Hornelleville Daily Times. The Elliott Family will be at the Armory Rink week of May 18. DR. WYNN'S BIBLE SCHOOL The Scholars Entertain a Large Gathering at Their Anniversary. The anniversary of the bible school of the First Baptist church was held in the church building, Fourth street below Market, last night. The house was filled to its utmost, many persons standing throughout the evening, and the long program was carried out very successfully. The choruses were full and strong, giving due credit to Prof. Chas. H. Kain, director, for his careful training. The exercises were opened by an anthem by the school, followed by a prayer by the superintendent. The instrumental music was very well rendered, showing excellent taste in its selections. Little Flossie Tourtelot sang "Bye By Baby" very sweetly, and was loudly applauded. A recitation entitled "Grandma and Grandpa" by Anna Tourtelot and Frankie Birch was excellent and also heartily received by the audience. Abbie Haines, who often delights the friends of the school by her singing, this time sat on the stage in a a little rocker, holding a doll which she was trying to console by telling it that it should be an angel by-and-by. Her song was very much enjoyed. The "Price of a Drink" was very acceptably rendered by Clarence Thorne, being very pathetic. The entertainment throughout was excellent and delightful, and those who participated deserve special credit for meritorious efforts. Master Chas. Young delivered the welcome address; Miss Maud Hinchman rendered a piano solo; little Ethel Howard recited "Lucy's Dolls;" Frank Jess recited the "Game of Life:" Annie Bitting recited "More than Conqueror;" Louie Brown recited "Selling the Baby;" Samuel Haines, Jr., played a flute solo; Addie Brown recited "A Romish Legend;" tiny Clara Felten recited "Midget;" Lilie Haines rendered a piano solo; James Tatem recited "Boy with a Hold in His Memory;" Mary Middleton recited "A Little Saying;" Lizzie Burroughs and Lulu Sherman recited "Shadows;" Maggie Husted played a piano selection; Eva Cook recited "Take My Hand;" Charlie Moore recited "Honest John;" Mabel Genther recited "A Dinner and a Kiss;" Lizzie Carlin rendered a piano solo; Carrie Cole recited "Take the Safe Path;" Ellie Wells, Lizzie Wells, Sadie Young and Lottie Ireton, gave a quartet, called "Room for Children;" Howard Brown delivered "A Sermon;" Ella Shaw recited "The Robin;" Irene M'Elhaney recited "That Dreadful Boy," and after a chorus by the school the benediction was pronounced and the large audience dispersed with a high opinion of the Sabbath schools of the First Baptist church.

Coroner Tomlinson was notified and will hold an inquest. Rev. Mr. Adams' Lecture. Rev. Clarence Augustin Adams was greeted by a very large audience at the Second Baptist Church, Fourth and Mt. Vernon streets, last night, to hear his lecture, "Let Us Make Us a Name." The lecture was delivered with splendid effect, being both amusing and interesting. The funny incidents, related by the speaker in illustration of his subject, caused much merriment and at times the audience was completely captured by Mr. Adams' brilliant oratory. The solos rendered by Mrs. James McCormick were highly pleasing. Paying More of the Forged Notes. Freehold, N. J., May 15.—Judge Scudder to-day refused an application made by Frank Patterson's lawyers to have his bail reduced to $6,000. Patterson's trial will open May 27.

MAY TERM OF COURT Dragging Its Slow Length Along. Eschew-Ireland Libel Suits Efforts of the Defense to Prove The Truth of the Injurious Allegation. After the adjournment yesterday which had been made to procure certain documents necessary to conduct the libel suit of William H. Ireland vs. Sinnickson Chew, Mr. Chew resumed his seat in the witness stand. "Did you ever repeat the charges made in the objectionable article?" asked Judge Wescott. "I have not," said witness. A copy of Press of April 23, 1884 was then produced and a paragraph was read, in which Dr. O.B. Gross was recommended for the position of County Physician, and which also stated that the Board of Freeholders had not always been fortunate in their choice of candidates for this office. "Who did you refer to when you said the Board had not always been fortunate in their selection?" asked Judge Wescott. This question was objected to and much discussion was the result which ended in Judge Wescott's explaining that the object was to establish if possible that malice was entertained by the defendant in the writing of the article. The objections, however, were sustained by the Court. County Physician O. B. Gross was called by the defense and asked to explain the nature of the duties of the position, and whether or not the incumbent was entitled to fees for holding views, etc., in addition to a stated salary. The question was objected to on the ground that the defense had failed to show the object of the question. It might be construed as a charge of dishonesty on the part of the plaintiff. If that was the purpose of the defense they were anxious that the investigation and the taking of testimony on that basis should proceed. There was much feeling manifested and Counsellor S. H. Grey made a very eloquent plea in behalf of the admission of the evidence declaring that it was not the purpose of the defense to impeach the character of the plaintiff but merely to demonstrate that the office of County Physician was such an one as to require that the character of the candidate for such office be above reproach or suspicion. Said he: "If a man in this position be dishonest there are numerous avenues by which dishonest methods may be successfully carried out." He referred to illegal or exorbitant fees for views, inquests, etc. He said that the defense intended to show that plaintiff did not pay his debts and resorted to the subterfuge of not owning anything, as charged in the article written and which defense proposed to justify. The Court said that if the defense attempted to prove that the plaintiff collected illegal fees the evidence would not be admissible. Andrew Baird testified to keeping two horses at his stables, one of which plaintiff alleged was owned by his father and the other was valued at only about $25 and exempt from seizure. County Collector Hallock testified to the amounts of money paid to plaintiff for service as county physician in 1882 and 1883. The object was to show by this witness that plaintiff was able to pay his debts. Joseph J. Read testified that the reputation of Dr. Ireland was not good. Had found him dishonest in personal dealings with him; had rented plaintiff a house and never received rent for it, and he himself was compelled to make good the deficiency. Counsel for plaintiff said they would prove later on that this evidence or a part of it was false. Councilman John Campbell, said the general reputation of plaintiff was bad. Hon. George B. Borton, heard rumors reflecting upon the honesty of plaintiff, but had found him honest in personal dealings. Justice Chas. Gordon, said that plaintiff's reputation was not good and that he had had a warrant of removal served upon him. Hon. E. A. Armstrong, said that he had represented one of the judgements offered in evidence by the defence. Several bills which had been given to him to collect for plaintiff had been returned to the creditors as bad debts. Court then adjourned until 10 o'clock this morning. This Morning's Court was opened at 10 o'clock and the jurors who were not in the Ireland-Chew case were discharged until next Tuesday morning as to-day will be devoted to the hearing of evidence in the above mentioned case and Monday will be devoted to argument. The case of Ireland vs. Chew was then resumed and William F. Reed was called to the stand. He said that Dr. Ireland's reputation was bad and spoke from personal knowledge. Edmund E. Reed testified to the reputation of plaintiff as being "detrimental." John F. Harned was then recalled to the stand and testified to his dealings with Dr. Ireland and said that he had heard him repeatedly termed a "beat." Benjamin D. Shreeve, Esq., was placed on the stand and said, that in 1873 he had had occasion to inquire into his character and found that he was a man who was quick to contract a debt, but slow to pay it; that his reputation was bad. Captain Charles S. Barnard testified that he was a grocer, that prior to January of 1884 Ireland's reputation was very bad; the latter portion of this evidence was given very emphatically but immediately afterward said that he desired the court to know that he had no personal feeling in the matter. Judge Wescott asked witness if he had been subpœnaed to which the latter answered "no." Then why did you come if you had no interest in the matter?" asked Mr. Wescott. "Because I believe Mr. Chew pays his honest debts and I do not want to see him pay $20,000 for telling the truth when I know that Dr. Ireland does not." This created a titter in the Court room. He said that Dr. Ireland had one time given him a check which he believed was a bogus one but that he afterward paid the account. Dr. Ireland was then put on the stand and gave rebutting testimony. He was asked to explain the check given to Captain Barnard. Mr. Grey objected, saying that Judge Wescott had elicited this answer himself and not from any question interrogated by the defense. This led to much discussion during which all the evidence of Captain Barnard was read by the stenographer after which the court permitted the plaintiff to explain. Ireland said that he did remember the transaction and that the check was an honorable one. Relative to William T. Reed's evidence the stenographer was again compelled to read his evidence. Judge Wescott explained that the plaintiff desired to show that the charges made by Mr. Chew were false and that he desired to explain all debts contracted by plaintiff. S. H. Grey objected. Judge Parker said on the question of the article being libelous, in this charge he would leave it to the jury, and if they found that it was libelous he would rule out the pleas of the defendant because they were not in the line of justification, still if Mr. Chew had good reasons to believe that those statements were true, the evidence produced under the pleas should go to the jury in mitigation of damages, and therefore at this stage of the proceedings would rule out the offer of plaintiff's counsel, to offer in rebuttal that Dr. Ireland paid his honest debts. Judge Wescott then called for the evidence of Joseph Read, but it not being in court, B. F. Sweeten, Jr., was called to prove the character of plaintiff and said he had never heard Dr. Ireland's reputation questioned. B. F. Sweeten. Sr., said he had known plaintiff for five or six years and that he always paid him and that he had never heard anything about his reputation either one way or the other. J. Ford Fox said he had know plaintiff but a short time but had found him all right in business transactions with him. James R. Carson, a grocer, said he could not recollect that he ever heard plaintiff's character questioned. Dr. W. B. Miller said he never knew anything against Dr. Ireland. John S. Scheitcher said the plaintiff's reputation he knew nothing about, but had heard rumors that he did not pay his rent. Henry W. Roberts had known Dr Ireland for four years and never heard Dr. Ireland's reputation questioned. Louis B. Humphreys had never heard Dr. Ireland's reputation questioned. Alfred Smith, in the shoe business, said he believed Ireland's reputation good. S. H. Grey desired to know whether he or his wife at present owned the business, to which he answered "my wife." but he said he had been in the business.

Appropriate addresses were delivered by Joseph Greaves, of Paterson; Samuel Reed, of Mt. Holly; James M. Cassady, Esq., and William T. Brewer. The addresses were interspersed with excellent music under the direction of Mr. Harry La Dow. An interesting feature of the exercises was the reading of the minutes of the lodge, which showed that James M. Cassady, Esq., was the only member now living who joined the lodge when instituted in 1845. The report indicated that the lodge had prospered wonderfully in the forty years of its existence. Chosen Friends' Lodge is one of the most prominent bodies of Odd Fellows in the State. A well stocked library is one of the many attractive features. The membership now numbers nearly 200. It has paid out for relief alone over $25,000 in the forty years. Sporting Notes. The Chicago nine won a second victory over the Philadelphias at the Recreation Park yesterday by a score of 3 to 0.

On looking about he saw a man carving out of a solid block of wood a woman, which was intended as a cigar pompey. Jacobs is now on the look out for the man who gave the alarm.

COUNCIL'S ADJOURNED SESSION A Call for the Names of Fathers Who Told Saloonkeepers to Go Ahead and Sell. President Rex called the adjourned meeting of City Council to order last night, at eight-thirty, after a caucus of the Republicans. All the members were present. Licenses. The first thing in order was the consideration of licenses. James Fogarty was allowed to take out his license, already granted, provided he paid the license fee within twenty-four hours. The License Committee reported upon a number of transfers. They were taken up separately and acted upon as follows: Wm. Wills, No. 5 and 7 Market street, to James F. Shannon, granted; Edward Rimke, 213 Market street, to John McCormick, granted; John McCormick, 107 Pearl street to James Daily, granted. This was the part of the report not reached at the last meeting. The additional report was taken up and the following licenses were acted upon: Wm. H. Grant, No. 9 Market street. A vote was taken and after a frequent calling of ayes and noes the license was refused; then a motion was made to reconsider the vote and this was carried by a vote of 13 to 8. Then a motion was made to lay the license over and this was lost. Another vote was taken upon the license and it was refused by a vote of 11 to 12. Peter Greenwald, southwest corner Fifth and Arch streets, granted- 12 to 10. John D'Arcy, northeast corner Second and Arch streets. A remonstrance against this petition was read. Refused- 19 to 2. August Muench, Haddon and Atlantic avenues, at the Liberty Park settlement, refused- 13 to 12. John J. Brown, Fourth and Chestnut streets, refused- 12 to 12. Francis T. Verga, Fourth and Mechanic streets, refused- 7 to 16. Wm. T. Sands, Ninth and Walnut streets, refused- 11 to 13. Transfer of Peter Greenwalt, Fourth and Market streets, to Augustus C. Riceman, granted- 14 to 11. Transfer of Wm. M. Howe to Anna Howe, Fourth and Kaighn avenue, granted- 13 to 9. The repeat of Chief of Police Matlack [with] reference to the saloons was read. Mr. Meod moved that the report be received and filed, but Mr. Pfeiffer demanded to know who the members were who advised certain applicants for licenses to go ahead and sell, that their applications would be all right. Mr. Dialogue moved to amend the motion by asking that the names of the Councilmen be submitted by the Chief before the reception of the report. Mr. Dialogue's amendment was carried unanimously and the gentleman immediately moved to postpone to the next meeting and this was carried. Mr. Harman moved a reconsideration of the vote by which Henry Pierce's license at 237 Pine street, was refused at the last meeting. Mr. Dialogue moved to amend to make the reconsideration include all the licenses refused. His motion was declared out of order by the chair, as the licenses had been acted upon separately and would have to be reconsidered separately. Mr. Dialogue immediately appealed from the decision of the Chair, but withdrew his appeal before a vote was reached and Mr. Harman's original motion to reconsider was carried. The license was granted by 11 to 9, five members failing to vote. Tax Sales Ordered. The bond of City Auditor Samuel Hufty, for $5,000 with Messrs. Charles Watson and E. N. Cohn as bondsmen, was read and approved. The Finance Committee submitted a list of properties upon which taxes had not been paid and become delinquent, and upon motion the City Solicitor was authorized to proceed with the sales of the properties. A brief report of the Fire Committee was submitted, recommending an exchange of three horses from the department, as two had become useless and another too dangerous for the department. The report was adopted. Ordinances. The Ordinance Committee submitted for first reading a supplementary ordinance regulating the studding of buildings in the building ordinance. The ordinance was laid over under the rules. An ordinance was placed on first reading creating the office of a City Controller, for a term of three years, for a better conduct of the finances of the city. The ordinance enumerated the duties of the proposed new official, which is a similar position to the present City Auditor. The ordinance was referred to the Ordinance Committee and 100 copies ordered printed for the use of the members. An ordinance was passed allowing John Howard the privilege of erecting a one-story frame building in the rear of his residence, No. 1226 South Third street. The Harleigh Cemetery Company asked the privilege of locating on the land on the East side of Haddon avenue below Kaighn avenue. The approval of the Sanitary Committee had been gained. The request was unanimously granted. Mr. Leckner introduced a resolution, designated the POST, Courier, and Press as the newspapers to publish the ordinances, and placing the compensation at 60 cents per folio, first intersection, and 30 cents per subsequent insercions.[sic] Mr. Pfeiffer moved to amend to include the Camden County Journal and Democrat, Mr. James moved to further amend to refer to the Printing Committee.

From the "Advance Sheets of the First Annual Report of the State Board of Assessors" of New Jersey, we copy the concluding paragraphs: If, from any action this Board may have taken in the performance of its official duties, or from any statements or arguments in this report made to explain or defend its work, any inference shall be drawn that the Board is in any sense hostile to the railroad corporations of the State, or to any of them, we beg most emphatically to disclaim it. No such feeling exists; on the contrary, the official duties of the Board having made them better acquainted with these corporations, with their values, their methods of management, and their consideration for the comfort, and convenience and safety of the traveling public, the Board feels warranted in saying that the railroads of New Jersey, as a whole, will compare favorably in construction, condition, and quality of equipment; in management, accommodation for the people, and reasonableness of fare, with the railroads of any other State in the Union. And we may add that the knowledge which has come to us from a closer contact with the subject has quickened our appreciation of the great work the railroads have done and are still doing in developing and promoting the material interests of the State. It is but natural that these corporations should be restive under the increased taxation which the present law imposes-- but the Board submits for their careful examination and candid consideration the deductions it has drawn from the facts and figures herein given--that, under this law, they are paying no more than their just proportion of the burden of taxation, based on the true value of their property and privileges. If they can concur in our conclusions, that the tax assessed by this Board is approximately just, the cheerful payment thereof will be hailed as a good omen by all reasonable people of the State, and will silence the clamor of demagogues who strive to make political capital for themselves by inflaming the passions of the people, and fanning into a flame their prejudices against the great corporations of the State. It will be a happy day for both the people of the State and these corporations when the conflicting views as to the proper relation they should bear to the taxation of the State shall be harmonized and adjusted--and their just proportion of the public burden fixed and settled, so that it shall no longer be a disturbing element in the domain of politics. "Let us have peace." ______________________________ Now that a non-partisan organization of the Board has been effected, through whatever cause it matters not, there should be non-partisan action for the benefit of the public whenever it will come in play. If party lines are not drawn there can be found a majority of men who will serve the public instead of themselves, and these should come together and resolve to give the people the best results of their wisdom and experience. It is high time to cry a halt on extravagance and to give us a clean and creditable administration of county affairs. For some years past this has not been the case, and instead of one party trying to "put the other in a hole" and make political capital, the reform element of both parties in the board should pull together and stand shoulder to shoulder in the work of redeeming the county. We have been drifting towards virtual bankruptcy, and the effort should now be to see how little will answer rather than how much can be gobbled and spent. ______________________________ The advantages of the proposed river front road have been made manifest, while the opposition to the extension have failed to show wherein it would prove a serious detriment. The marsh to be used is of no value to any one until filled in and made serviceable, which the building of the Front street link would bring about sooner than anything else. The marsh river front may never become a thing of beauty, but it can and should be utilized as soon as possible for commerce and local traffic, and the encouragement of enterprise in this direction would seem to be better for all the interests involved than the dog in the manger policy which has done nothing save oppose those who wish to do something. _____________________________ The Supreme Courts of New York and Massachusetts have settled the matter as to who owns a medical prescription. The substance of the decisions, is, that the physician, in prescribing, gives the patient a written order for drugs, and their delivery terminates the operation. The druggist may, on his own responsibility, renew the drugs, for he is a merchant, and has a right to sell drugs in any shape. He is not bound to give a copy of the prescription, nor even to keep it, though he usually retains it as a protection in case of error on the part of doctors or patients. ________________________________ Ex-Colonel Fred. Grant, it is reported, will be appointed by President CLEVELAND either an assistant quartermaster or commissary in the army when the next vacancy occurs, and it is further said that Mr. CONKLING and other friends of General GRANT either have asked or will ask this much of a Democratic President. _____________________________ The church organ at Salt Lake City in last evening's issue bewails the hardness of heart of President CLEVELAND in not promising to stop the enforcement of the law and send a commission of investigation. It urges "continued appeals to the authorities of the nation against the oppression of tyrants," and closes by saying: "Should a deaf ear be turned by them to the entreaties of an innocent, maltreated people, the Lord of Hosts will listen to the cry of the oppressed and make an adjustment that will make the ears of millions tingle." _____________________________ The Canada Lancet attributes to our own Dr. A. L. LOOMIS the startling statement that "a man can take two or three glasses of stimulants daily and may continue the habit for perhaps twenty-five years without harm," but that there will come a time when he will find that he has "all these years been laying the foundation for chronic endoarteritis." Meanwhile, in spite of this terrible warning, laying the foundation for chronic endoarteritis seems to continue. _____________________________ GENERAL GRANT was better yesterday and was working on his book. Dr. DOUGLAS, speaking of his patient, said : "The disease is still there, of course, but the increased pain of the last two days has been not so much the result of increase in the disease as it has been of neuralgic complications, induced by the frightful weather this week. The General is better to-day ; he looks brighter, and has this afternoon been working easily upon his book." ______________________________ The disclaimers of a "deal" were loud, long and strong, yesterday, and yet the fact that the large majority of the Republicans in the Board were thwarted in their purpose shows conclusively that there was an understanding that the policy of the minority in a party if not of the minority party should be carried out. The secret ballot if responsible for this, and hence the tenacity with which men who dislike or are afraid of open action stick to it. __________________________________ NEXT to being king JOHN L. SMITH wisely concludes that it is good to be a king-maker. He has earned the distinction of being the Warwick of the Board, and still not be behind the door when the Committees are given out. We have Mr. HOWARD's own declaration that he could not be bossed by Mr. SMITH. Perish the thought that Mr. SMITH has been bossed by Mr. HOWARD Probably each bossed himself! __________________________________ PARTISANS are not happy. The Republicans are about as much dissatisfied with the organisation of the Freeholders as the Democrats are disgruntled over recent national appointments and the tardiness in making others as well. Perhaps a little less politics and little more good government in local and county affairs would fit in to advantage at this juncture. ________________________________ ATLANTIC TIMES: "Philadelphia desires to sell its gas works and Atlantic City weeps on one side of her face because she does not own the water works. The problem of adjusting the relations between cities and their corporations stands unsettled, while wily politicians or business browed stockholders make hay during sunshine. ___________________________________ THOSE who find it dangerous to condemn local abuses can now pitch into the Mormons to their hearts' content. There must be an exhaust pipe for newspapers as well as engines, and--it is entirely safe to make mouths at the Mormons. And yet we go a long way from home to hunt up subjects for indignant comment. ____________________________________ WALT WHITMAN who would not barter his brains for base drachmas and write an ode to order on the death of a President, has given one of the best tributes evoked by the illness of GRANT, which appears elsewhere. ___________________________________ The new Board of Freeholders has the bulge on all its predecessors in one thing--its members have had two dinners for one session, and yet the party and people are not satisfied that the results of the session are worth the dinners? ____________________________________ NOTICE is hereby given that the firm- name, style and title of Middleton & Miller has been changed to Miller & Middleton, who will continue business at the old stand. ____________________________________ List of Letters.

Please do not confound any of the whiskey bitters which topers take and drunkards delight in, with that altogether different article "Brown's Iron Bitters." No [t]oper wants Brown's Iron Bitters, for there i[s] nothing in it to satisfy the cravings of cravings of his debased appetite. This great Iron medicin[e] gives strength and new , life not a mere unwholesome stimulus. Sheriff Pouder of Washington County, Tenn., writes that after using two bottles of it he was cured of dyspepsia. No "whiskey bitters" could achieve such a result. Young Men : Read This.

THE POPULAR SHIRTMAKERS. 114 NORTH SECOND ST, PHILADA. Wanamaker's Philadelphia, May 15, 1885 Escurial or soutache grenadines enough to last two weeks of such trade as for the past two days, since they came. They are treacherous stuffs. Not another American merchant probably has risked them to anything like the extent. Not one in a hundred readers has seen them. Let the one have patience then. The name Escurial was first applied to Spanish lace handrun with heavy cord. Escurial grenadine is a grenadine covered with Escurial lace. Soutache is braid--the braid is put on like a cord. It isn't lace; it isn't cord-- it is grenadine; looks like Escurial lace. $3 and $4 a yard. No wholesale importer dares to bring over a stock of these costly stuffs that an ill breath of Fashion may blow into nothing before they arrive. There's no other way to get them but to buy in Paris or Lyons. Perhaps the usual caution is wise--it may turn out so with us. But we may have led you to expect the most extravagant things. We are rather disposed to risk something and justify your expectation. Another sort of silk grenadine deserves a word of explanation. A Paterson, N. J., maker has made for us "open-mesh" grenadines several years. He makes them better than anybody else; and, of course, we get all we can of him; for he isn't greedy--we used to sell his work for $1.35; now $1, although he can't make enough for us. He is making more than usual now; but is going to double next month's supply. We're out of them every few days. Can't help it. Even these we have to buy with a certain caution. What mischief a non grenadine summer would work if we didn't! It's a grenadine summer so far. We're half-inclined to tell another just such tale. There's another sort of grenadines--Mexicanne is the name; but the name amounts to nothing--little blocks of satin and wool and nothing; and nothing, if you look at it closely, is filled with films of silk as fine as the spider's web--a cunning stuff it is. This silk-and-wool grenadine (only 75 cents a yard) is, just like the others, rather fickle. One maker surpasses every other. We, and another American merchant, bring it across the the ocean, and nobody else. Nobody dares to bring enough. Another has to be sold, when this is gone. So all we have any right to say of grenadines is: Come promptly.--And that is good advice, whatever you want. Southwest from the center. Fine camel's-hair beige for less than two-thirds, 60 cents instead of $1; two browns and two grays. Pin head checks in fine wool for three-quarters, 75 cents instead of $1. Very solid smooth cloth, not hard- twisted, but very closely woven; brown, blue, garnet, cardinal. Southeast from the center. Beautiful ginghams for half. Scotch plaids for 12 1/2 cents, instead of 20 and 25; American checks and stripes for 12 1/2 instead of 25. American finer than Scotch. Northwest from the center. Summer napkins, exactly right good linen, not too fine, neat figure, $1.10 $1.65 and $1.75 according to size. We have the same every year; tons of it. Table- linen also, of course. Floor-linens are almost over. Our stock is full yet, but will be broken in a week. Barnsley, two to five yards wide, 50 cents to $1.65. Let these remind you of everything linen and of our practice-no cotton-and linen for linen. Our buyer is among the linen-makers now. Whatever times are in store for us we are sure of one thing--linen, and nothing but linen, for linen. By the Telegraph Office on the Arcade steps. Every buyer of furniture ought to be glad of one store where the price of an article means what it ought to mean, is marked in plain figures, and isn't misleading. It isn't our purpose to grumble at others, but rather to sell furniture. We use the crooked ways of the trade to make the straight way clear. If we should baldly say we sell furniture honestly, it wouldn't sound well --and yet who does sell furniture honestly? It is fair and proper and right to tell of the tricks of the trade-- the tricks we mean to make futile. We make them futile by telling. Perhaps there is another store in town with prices marked on the furniture offered for sale. We doubt it. It is possible to sell furniture honestly and not have prices marked. Is it likely? Why not mark prices? We know of no reason that any dealer would like to tell of. Just that one reform in furniture-selling justifies our undertaking the business. There are others as good.

As one by one withdraw the lofty actors From that great play on history's stage eterne, That lurid, partial act of war and peace -- of old and new contending, Fought out through wrath, tears, dark dismays, and many a long suspense; All past -- and since, in countless graves receding, mellowing, victors and vanquish'd -- Lincoln's and Lee's -- now thou with them. Man of mighty days -- and equal to the days! Thou from the prairies! -- tangled and many-vein'd and hard has been thy part, To admiration has it been enacted. II. And still shall be; -- resume again , thou hero heart! Strengthen to firmest day O rosy dawn of hope! Thou dirge I started first, to joyful shout reverse! -- and thou, O grave, Wait long and long! WALT WHITMAN, in Harper's Weekly. Girding the Earth Anew. A movement, almost unnoticed but effectively conducted, has been going on in Europe which is destined not only to divert a large portion of the immense trade of the United States, Canada, and Northern Europe with India and the far East, from its present route by way of the Mediterranean and the Suez Canal to a new course bisecting Russia, but also to shorten the distance around the globe. The new route just opened by General Tsernajeff, over which a railroad is constructing, will shorten the distance between St. Petersburg and Calcutta to nine days. Then passengers and merchandise may be set down upon the banks of the Hoogley in twenty-one days after leaving New York Bay via Hamburg or Bremen; thence by rail to St. Petersburg and over the transcontinental Russian Railway. The latest addition extends from the Caspian Sea to Kungrad. It traverses popular districts such as Khiva, Bokhara, and Zarafshan. The rapidity with which the Russian textile industry has risen to eminence under the heavy protective duties which exclude Western European goods, has compelled the Russians, in spite of the enormous domestic consumption of their 100,000,000 inhabitants, to seek outlets for their cotton, woolen, linen and silk goods. Hence the efforts which, radiating form Moscow, Nishninovgorod and Odessa, tend to wrest from England the trade in dry goods with the Levante, Persia in particular, and with China and Central Asia ; hence the many expeditions to find new routes into and beyond the heart of Asia; hence the great new railroad project. The latter, first surveyed by Col., Alexandroff, in the winter of 1881-82, leads from Kungrad northwest to the Soombay Wells, where it joins the Vannishin route. The only portion without water is a tract of thirty miles of Desert between Miertoy and Kultook, where artesian wells are being sunk. When this Russo-Indian railroad shall have been completed the British cannot delay pushing through the Euphrates valley railway, so long projected. Ever since the Crimean war Russia has, with- out making much fuss about it, extended her commercial conquests further east and south-east, and although Russian civilizations may not be on a par with Western it advantageously supercedes the barbarism of the nomadic tribes which it subdues, and commerce follows in its wake. To us it is indifferent whether England or Russia demands American cotton for the cotton goods they manufacture and sell, but it does concern us that we can transport ourselves and our manufacturer from New York Bay to the heart of India in three weeks' time, and then pressing forward without abatement surpass Jules Verne's "circummnodane effort," via San Francisco, arriving within sight of Trinity Church steeple in seventy days. To Encourage Silk Culture. The Commissioner of Agriculture at Washington has issued a circular in which the department offers to furnish gratuitously silk worm eggs to all persons who are unable to buy the same and yet are desirous of engaging in silk culture. In order that a proper amount may be sent, the applicant is requested to fill out a blank that will be furnished on written application as the amount of silk worm food he has at his disposal, and also any experience he may have had in the industry. Eggs will be distributed in December, and instructions as to their keeping will be sent with them. All applications should be be made before then, as the worms are liable to hatch after that on being exposed to warmth, and therefore, a certain risk attends their shipment. The Queen of Greece. Queen Olga, of Greece, is one of the handsomest women to be seen. She is rather tall, most exquisitely built, with small hands and feet, thick dark hair, large brown eyes, with eyelashes that are simply wonderful, and with a pure, creamy complexion as rare as it is beautiful. She is very fond of horse back riding, and looks well in the saddle. She is adored by her husband and her people. She is fond of knitting lace work, such as done in Turkey, and giving it to those who please her in any way. An Interruption Rebuked. When George Francis Train was giving a lecture in Chicago some years ago, he exclaimed: "Every man has a price." "What is your price, Mr. Train?" cried a voice from the gallery. Quick as a flash, the lecturer faced the questioner, and exclaimed, "fifty cents admission. Children" (pointing out the owner of the voice, while the entire audience focussed its gaze at the astonished person in line of Mr. Train's index finger) "half price!"-- Harper's Bazar.

The last attack, which was four years since, threatened to terminate fatally. Through my brother-in-law, who had been recently cured of fever and ague, I heard of the PILLS, and procuring them, was cured by them in a few weeks and have had no return to this hour. I most cheerfully and earnestly recommend these PILLS to all suffering from this miserable disease. JESSIE HALLENBAKE[?] Price 50c. Send for circular.

A Surgical Operation Avoided --- How a Father, Wife and Daughter Escaped an awful doom Of the hundreds of accounts of remarkable cures wrought by DR. KENNEDY'S FAVORITE REMEDY, none will have appeared so purely astonishing as the following. The persons mentioned are among the most highly respective in the city of Troy, and the story as told by the father will prove interesting to all our readers. ED. TROY, N. Y. Dr. Kennedy, Rondout, N. Y.: DEAR SIR.---My daughter was afflicted with a severe growth of Fungus. To remove it we resorted to almost every remedy and consulted the most prominent surgeons and physicians. Dr. --------------, of Troy, said a surgical operation would be necessary, but fearing fatal results I hesitated. Some of the physicians claimed that it was caused by one thing and some by another. The Fungus was prominent and disfigured her looks. Having heard of Dr. Kennedy's FAVORITE REMEDY working so thoroughly on the blood I determined to try it, to see if this medicine could do what doctors had hardly dared to undertake. I can say in truth that the result of this trial was the complete cure of my daughter of this dreadful malady. Dr. Kennedy's FAVORITE REMEDY alone effected it. We used nothing else, for other things had completely failed. My daughter to-day enjoys vigorous health and to Favorite Remedy alone is the credit due. My wife also was very poor in health, due to some liver difficulty with which she had suffered a long time until she became very much reduced in flesh. Yours, etc., WILLIAM WINDSOR, Cor. Canal and Mount Streets, Troy, N.
