Barkley Township Items.
Barkley Township, Sept. 14,’81. Mb. Editor; I have noticed the columns of your paper for some time, and have looked and looked in yain for those items which should have appeared from week to week, and circumstances and facts have proved to me that some of your correspond ents have fallen by the wayside.— There is Mr. “Slip-Up,” the young Continental, who at first waved his pen in the breeze in the name of the great Sand-Lapper, and said it is I.— And we regret to say the “Widow Hainzes 2 Boys” have gone the way of all flesh. Mr. “Reader,” too, since Jennie-thought more of the lap-robe, and Lillie of the cakes and pies, than of him, who has sent in the longest string of items that has appeared in the columns of either paper has permitted himself to sink out of sight. But I expect to stand by my post and do my duty as I have done heretofore, for I am “all wool and a yard wide,” and I don’t intend to be surpassed at all, at ali, by auy other reporter on the jab. Truly Yours. Mb. Hon. D. B. Swacklehammeb, Esq.

Blaze, after suffering several months from consumption. We greatly sympathize with the be reuved husband aud parents. Weep, ye bereaved! a dearer head, Ne’er left the pillowing breast: The good, tlte pure, the lovely lied, When mingling with the shadowy dead, * She meekly went to rest. Mourn, friends 1 , mourn! a bow which spanned Thy cloud hits passed away; A flower has withered on thy sand, A pitying cpirit left thy strand, A saint litis ceased to pray. Angels rejoice, another string Ibis caught the strains above; Rejoice, rejoice! a new fled ed wins* Around the throne is hovering, In sweet, glad, wondering love. A Friend

Cathartic Pills Combine the choicest cathartic principles in medicine, in proportions accurately adiusted to secure activity, certainty, and uniformity of effect. They are the result of years of careful study and practical experiment, and are the most effectual remedy yet discovered for diseases caused by derangement of the stomach, liver, and bowels, which require prompt and effectual treatment. Ayer’s Finns are specially applicable to this class of diseases. They act directly on the digestive and assimi lative processes, and restore regular healthy action. Their extensive use by physicians in their practice, and by all civilized nations, is one of the many proofs of their value as a safe, sure, ant perfectly reliable purgative medicine. Being compounded of the concentratec virtues of purely vegetable substances they are positively free from calomel o any injurious properties, and can ho admin istered to children with perfect safety. Ayer’s Pills are an effectual cure for Constipation or Costiveness, Indigestion, Dyspepsia, Loss of Appetite, Foul Stomach and Breath, Dizziness, Headache, Loss of Memory, Numbness, Biliousness, Jaundice, Rheumatism, Eruptions and Skin Diseases, Dropsy, Tumors, Worms, Neuralgia, Colic, Gripes, Diarrhoea, Dysentery, (iouti Piles, Disorders of the Liver, and all other diseases resulting from a disordered state of tfte digestive apparatus. As a Dinner Pill they have no equal. While gentle in their action, the 9 ® IhT.LB are the most thorough and searching cathartic that can be employed, and never give pain unless the bowels are inflamed, and ; then their influence is healing. They stima- ! late the appetite and digestive organs; they 1 operate to purify and enrich the blood, and j impart renewed health and vigor to *he whole system. Prepared by Dr. J. C.
