THE EAGLE. FRIDAY, HOY. 29, 1567. Local & Miscellaneous. Democratic Convention. Tbe Democrats of Adams County, are requested to meet in Convention, at tbe Court House, in Decatur, on 1 Wednesday, Jaxuaky 1,1868, for the purpose of selecting delegates to attend the Democratic State Convention, January 8,1868, and to transact such other business as may properly come before the Convention. A general attendance is requested. By order of the Central Committee. A. J. HILL, Chairman. Commissioner’s Court con'convenes on Monday. .J®"The Clerk and Auditor elect, ■Will take their seats next Monday, as s~ nu as their bonds are approved by the Board o* Commissioners, 'BuRGLARiES.-The robbing of the money drawers of our shopkeepers has become a frequent occurcnce of late. We have heard of several who have suffered by raids upon their drawer, but who for obvious reasons say nothing about their losses. It would be unhealthy, just now, to be caught pilfering. Fat Hogs.—The unusual warm weather, for lhe season, has caused hogs to decline in the Eastern market, and a consequent depression here. We quote hogs here at the latter figure being the outside price for the heaviest porkers, and in all probability before this reaches a majority of our readers, unless there should be a change in the weather, there will be a further decline in price. Suspicious Characters.—A week ago last night as Mr. David Crabbs and his lady were returning home, having spent the evening at Mr. James Pattersons, they discovered a light in the School , House, which attracted their attention, and they also saw some persons moving about and also heard them talking. Proceeding home, he notified the neighbors, who went to the School House to learn who the unauthorized occupants were, but before they reached the house they had evacuated. A sharp look ■out may not save them another time. Indiana State University.—lt must be in the highest degree gratifying to the citizens of Indian a, and all the friends of education, to know that their State University, at Bloomington, has for the last few years enjoyed a season of unparalleled prosperity. Its annual income is now eighteen thousand dollars, and the number of students is more than doubled. It justly ranks among the very best Institutions of Learning in the United States. Tuition is free, not only for two students from each county BUT for all who attend. Lathes are rrow admitted on the same terms as males, to all the privilege of University, in the College clasclasses. For information address the President, RtiZ C. Nutt, D. D., Bloomington, Indiana. Next Term begins January 2d, 1868. The Retiring Auditor.—W. G. Spencer vacates the office of county Auditor on Monday, Seymour Worden the Auditor elect taking his place. Mr. Spencer has held the office two full terms, and has been an accommodating and efficient officer. During his administration the finances of the county have been managed with signal abilty; the county having during the time raised $82,000 for soldier’s bounties and the support of their families. This sum may be said to be paid, as the duplicate now in the hands of the Treasurer, when collected will leave money in his hands sufficient to redeem all outstanding orders, besides leaving the county otherwise free from debt. The friends of Mr. Spencer, contemplate, we understand, presenting h:| name before the Democratic State Convention, as a candidate for Auditor of State. It is sufficient for us to say that he possesses the necessary qualifications, being honest, capable and a lifelong Democrat.

SixP’s.-Poets-Painters-Preach-era—Players—Printers and Politicians—all suffer from Dyspepsia, I Nervousness, Loss of Appetite, Liver Complaints, and all diseases which they may cure or prevent by the use of Plantation Bitters. If those sufferers Took these BitB, the Poetry would be purer, Painting grander, the Sermons lier, the Acting truer, the Printing neater, and the Politics honester. This splendid tonic invigorates the system, and enables the brain to work healthily. Perhaps no article wes ever so well endorsed by all who bave used it. Try it Once.—The manufacturers of the Best Chemical Saleratus, Messrs. D. B. De Land & Co., show their readines to have the merits of the article tested, for they authorize all who sell it at retail to refund the money when by fair trial it does not prove to be as recommended. That is fair and shows their confidence in the article. It is bettci' than Soda. Magnolia Water.—A delightful toilet article—superior to Cologne and at half the price. President Lincoln’s Estate. Judge David Davis, administrator of the estate of A Lincoln deceased, has made a final settlement of the estate, in the probate eburt of Sangamond county. From the balance sheet it appears that, after paying all debts there remains the sum of sllO,295 91 to be divided among the three heirs, Mrs. Lineolon, Bob and Tad—each of whom receive $36,765 30. It also appears from the schedule that the private debts of Mrs. Lincoln amount to S3B 31, which subtracted from her share of the estate, leaves $36,736 99, Congress voted to Mrs, Lincoln the remainder of A. Lincoln’s salary for one year—say $20,000 and made her a gift of $25,000 besides. So that the total amount of Mrs. Lincoln’s personal fortune (not including the $40,000 worth of “gifts from her ‘dear friends’ is only $81,726 99. What a paltry bagatelle is this, compared to the hundreds of thousands and millions that have been realized by Mrs. .Lincoln’s “dear friends,” who presented to her camel's hair shawls, and then meanly refused, after her favor had made them millionares, to buy them back. Men are said to grow mean as they grow rich. The party of moral ideas has furnished abundant evidence of the truth of the saying. The meanness of Mrs. Lincoln's dear friends, in refusing to divide with “a presidnts widow” the money which a president’s wife enabled them to get, is without parallel in the whole catalogue of meanness. From South America. Advices from the seat of war are to October 19, The capture of Pilasby by the allies is confirmed. Two attacks were made on the place, the first being repulsed, but i the second attempt carried the town by cavalry, the defenders losing 200 killed and 86 prisoners. A heavier battle occurred on 1 October 3, near San Salans. A • large force of the Paraguyans ad . vanning to attack the allied camp were flanked by the Brazilian in - fantry, forming a portion of the : army of Marqis DeXaxicas, and » were then completely defeated by a brilliant charge of the Brazilian 5 cavalry. One Paraguayan division was cut to pieces, as 538 dead bodies 1 were found on the ground occupied by the division. Two hundred prisoners were captured, together with 500 guns.

In 1839 my case was frightful. Tumors and ulcers spread until in 1832, under the advice of my physicians I went to Avon Springs. I received no benefit—tried every medicine and did everything I could. I had to rest my arm on a cushion, and had not been able to raise it to my head for over a year. The discharge from two ulcers was nearly a pint a day. Amputation was recommended; but pronounced dangerous. I could not sleep, and my sufferings were intolerable. A friend bro’t me an English physician who applied a salve with which h; said he had accomplished extraordinary cures in the hospitals in England. It commenced to relieve; I persisted in its use; it finally effected a perfect and entire cure. It is now 1848. It is five years since I had the appearance of a scrofulous sore, and my health has been good ever since. I procured the receipt of this wonderful article—this blessing of humanity—and have called it “Page's Climax Salve,’’ and allow-the public to use it or not as they choose. This is a brief but candid statement, given more fully in my circular. J. M. PAGE Geneva, New York, December, 1848. New York, Oct. 16, 1866. ( “I have known J. M. Page, Esq., of Geneva, N. Y., for many years. He is oneof the first citizens of Western New York. I saw him last week in good ! health. His case wasa most remarkable one, but actually true in every particular. (Signed) Dumas Barnes.'’ .

Tbe Season of Storms. The blasts of autumn and the chill | ‘ storms of early winter are apt to make j sad inroads upon the constitutions of the I ' feeble. In old times at tbe commence- ; ' ment of every season it was the fashion I to take a strong cathartic as safeguard against a change of temperature. It was ; a worse than senseless practice. . The | people of our day understand the matter ' better. Instead of depleting the system ! they reinforce it. In the method" they adopt they exhibit a wise discrimination. Instead of resorting to the vitiated stimulants of catnmerce, or any of the compounds derived from them, they put their faith in the only absolutely pure invigorant procurable in the market—HOSTETTER'S STOMACH BITTERS. Their faith is well founded. Never has any tonic medicine been prepared with such scrupulous precision and conscientious care. It is a vegetable compound of which every ingredient is sound, wlinlesome, and medicinal in the true sense of the word. Now we have three prominent national complaints. One half of the adult population of the United States suffer more or less, either from diseases of the stomach, derangement of the liver, or auctions 'he kidneys. In no other land under Heaven are these mal idies so general as in this country, Ail-.l HOSTETTOR'S BITTERS is a specific for them all. unless organic in their origin, and, therefore, beyand cure. And let those who are fortunate enough to be exempt from them at present understand one great fact, viz: that an occasional use of this vitalizing tonic will as certainly prevent them as the sun will prevent the earth from freezing where its genial beams descend.— Communicated. To Oonsumpti-vcis. The advertiser, having been restored to health in a very few weeks by a ve~y simple remedy, after having suffered for several years with a severe lung affection, and that dread disease Consumption —is anxious to make known to his fel-low-sufferers the means of cure.
