In view of the fact that 'we have indulged these individuals with long credit and they have received the full benefit of the paper, their conduct may be considered particularly mean.— We are making thorough investigation into'several cases' and intend in due time to publish the names and general character -of the scalawags who sneak off without paying their little bills at this office.— Huntington Herald. 5

The advance system protects the publisher from being defrauded in the man- - ner ‘above referred to.

|| Citizen’s Meeting. ' /In response to a call in last weeks issue of the BANNER, a number of thé citizens of Ligotiier met in convention at the Town Hall, on Saturday evening last.— Wm. M. Barney was called to the chair, and explained the object of the meeting, which was to put in nomination a ticket for Corporation officers. J. W. Peters was ‘chosen as Secretary. - A committee ot three, consisting of J. B. Stoll, Dr. A. 8. Parker and W. R. Hicks, was appointed to select candidates. After being absent a short time, the committee reported the following: For Marshal, William R. Hicks; for Clerk, Eli B. Gerber; for Treasurer, John Wier ; for Assessor, Chas. C. Buchtel; Trustees, F. Beazel, Dr. A. 8. Parker, F. W. Shinke, Epkraim Harper, A. S. Fisher.

The report of the committee, at the suggestion of Mr. Stoll, was acted upon separately. The nominations for Marshal, Clerk, Treasurer, and Assessor were unanimously ratified. Pending the nomination of Trustee from the First Ward, Mr. Beazel declined to serve, when Mr. Stoll briefly addressed the meeting on the importance of securing good, trustworthy citizens for the position of corporation trustebs, arguing that it was the duty, of such to comply with the wishes of their fellow-citizéns, even if disinclined to become candidates for popular suffrage.— The speaker remarked that this was a movement, of the citizens of Ligonier, irrespective of party, to secure the services: of a new set of officers—inaugurated for the purppse of effecting & reform in the managenjént of municipal affairs.” There existed o wide spread complaint among tax-payers that the finances of the corporation were in a very unsatisfactory condition, and that. the men who for years had charge of our local government failed to give the people a statement of our indebtedness. ' The speaker 'continaed by saying it had been generally understood that no strictly partisan nominations were to be made this year, but to his utter surprise and regret he learned on Thursday afternoon, after a call for a citizen’s caucus had been published, that a few gentlemen of whom be expected better things, were circulating a paper to obtain signatures for a Tepublican caucus on Friday evening—-one day prior to the time fixed for the citizens caucus. In view of all these facts he called upon the friends of retrenchment and reform to unite for the nvertbro%v. of the ticke§ placed in nomination the night previous, and the election of a citizens ticket.

At the édnclnuﬂsion of §§lr. Stoll’s remarks, Mr. Beazel withdfgfw his declination, whereupon the nomimitions reported by th€committee were unanimously agreed .. Dr. Parker stated that Mr. Hicks, the nominee for Marshal, was crippled by the loss of & portion of his hand, and being a good, honest, industrious citizen, was entitled to the support of his fellow citizens. The meeting then adjourned. . WM. M. BARNEY, President. J. W. PETERS, Secretary. S et ! i *‘Paris by Sunfight and Gaslight.” . A work descriptive of the mysteries and miseries, the virtues, vices, splendors and crimes of the City of Paris. By James D. McCabe, Jr., National Publishing Co., Chicago. X The eagerness with which all Americans who e¢an fétpare the time and means, rush off to P"‘a"ris every year, has become almost a national characteristic. Indeed, this is not to be wondered at, for of all places in the world, Paris offers the greatest “attractions to the lover of pleasure, and what people love pleasure so well as our own countrymen? This most inter: esting of cities displays to the novice its enchantments in two népects so widely different, that the author shows us Paris in two different phases—“By Suvnlight” and “By Gaslight.” The quantity of serious and veritable history presented by this work, as connected with the various objects of interest in Paris, is immense.— That of ‘the Palaces and other public buildings is exhaustive and complete.— The reader is made acquainted with all the proud triumphal monuments of the past and present eras. He is led through the grandest galleries of art, and the history and descriptions of the leading objects of sculpture and paioting, are laid before him. He is introduced into the family of the Emperor, and carried through every phase of Parisian social life.. He 1s led up to the garrets of the pretty Grisettes, and listens to the stories of their loves; and is made a confidant in the secret intrigues of the ladies of rank. He visits the Queen of the Demi-monde in their gorgeous houses, and counts their lovers by their jewels. He luxuriates in the delicacies of French cooking and Pansian drinks, and smokes his cigarrette at night on the glittering Boulevard. He has the curtain drawn back and is shown the dark mysteries, the rogueries, villainies, and the frightful crimes of the City. He is amused, instructed, startled, thrilled, horrified by turns, and wheri he lays the book aside, finds it hard to belicve that he has not actpially seen Paris for himself, and participated, in person, in the scenes of which be has been reading. The book is illustrated with 150 splendid engravings, made in Paris, by the best artists of France; under the personal supervision of the author. It is sold only by subscription.

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE. ‘ . KENDALLVILLE, April 25, 1870. | " FRIEND 87011 :—Please find enclosed | §2.00 for one copy of your indispensable BAXNER, for one year from the 27th inst. I say indispensable; or, in other words, the Bible first, the BANNER next and all the time. - o : I saw in your paper an acccunt of great numbers of cattle dying, without any symptoms of disease, except bloating just oefore dying. About four weeks ngo one of my best cows (withoat any known cause, unless eating clover hay), was bloated, as I thought, to ber greatest capacity, and was found lying ot her side with her legs stickimg straight out, her eyes rolling, and; asiwe thought, within five minutes of her death. Two men took each a dish of salt and water, and rubbed her back thoroughly just forward of the hips, and in a very short time she stood on her feet. I think thisshould be made known to cattle owners, for I am certain that this saved my cow, Yours truly, : ; Y R.B. GarLur:

PeTERSYILLE, FREDERICK CoOUNTY, MD.,} ! | - April 22d;°1870. : J. B. SreLi, Esq — Dear Sir:-— Enclosed find $2.00 for the sth volume of the NatioNaL BANNER.: We hail its appearance as would we the visit of an old home friend ; fond recollections, nnbidden, come welling up from the long ago; familiar faces and hosts of old friends come gliding through the halls of memgry, echving back joyous sounds; withéhe Ban: NER we live the past again. : I am sorry to say that my futher is net able to write you, owing to a temporary blindness, caused by inflammation. He is now under treatment by our home Physician and a celebrated German Oculist, of Baltimore. " Yours Respectfully, NErTIE McDEvVITT. Address, as heretofore, John F. McDevitt, Petersville, Frederick county, Md: The “Woman Question.* : The faci that the question of woman suffrage is actually before the people of this nation as & serious one 1s freely admitted, and many of the leading minds (I mean masculine minds) assert that it is destined to become .one of the greatest political questions of the age. In view of this, it behoves us as people to devote some time and study to it; especially is it woman’s duty “to ‘give it something more than a careless, cursory consideration ere making any decision npon it. e One of the chief arguments which the advocates of woman’s rights advance is that the ballot placed in the hands of women would be a certain cure for the social evils which have ever been the bane of domestic and social life. In order to form anything approximating to a just opinion of the force of this argument, the causes, at least some of the principle causes, of the ¢social evils” must be considered. I

know that I make a bold assertion in saying that some of the common customs of domestic and social life are the ‘primary causes of the licentiousness of the times. People are mostly governed b’y the usages and opinions of society. : Society is the outgrowth of domestic lifé ; domestic life is pretty much what woman makes it.-— Hence it follows, logically, (hat woman is in a great measure respounsible for the evils she so deplores. The root. of the evil lies in the false teachings in reference to the relations and duties of life which are incilleated into the minds of the young. Children are keenly susceptible to the influence of the home atmosphere. When I think of the daily life led by the majority of the present generation, in the homes of their childhood, I wonder not at the wickedness there isin the world, but that there should be as many noble men and women as there are. - Children are by nature loving' and confiding ; hence, caresses and loving sympathy is abcolutely necessary to a rich and noble development of character: How _can it be expected that a éhild,‘ brought up in a cold, selfish home atmosphére, will become a wh'oleasouled, generous-hearted man, or a loving, confiding woman? Oune result of the home training which the majority of children receive is this: Their parents are the last persons 'in the world whose confidence and sympathy they .seek. Not long since a young girl came to me with a little girl’s affaire du ceeur. Though it seems of but little importance to ‘older persons, to her it was of vital importance. . After talking with her for a time seriously and earnestly, I said: My child, why don’t you talk with your mother about it? She can advise you much better than I. “Oh, I'nexer could tell mother; I wouldn’t do it for the world,” was the horrified exclamation. Why not? she is the person of all others whose confidence - you should seek, and| who can give you advice, I i‘eplied. “Oh, 1 I never could, I wouldn’t for anything; sh@would laugh at me and call me silly.” Mothers, who have the entire confidence of your daughters, what do you thigkfaof that? Every mother should have the confidence of her children from the time they lisp that holiest of names, mother, until death separates them. I thank God from the depths of a grateful heart that I can lay my head in my mother’s lap. telling her all my thoughts, feelings, joys and sorrows, while her hand, with its old, caressing touch, soothes me, with perfect .as-ﬁ surance that I shall find as ready sympathy as when in early chilhood I sought her, utterly broken hearted over my head-% less dolly. There is no surer protection for the virtue of a young girl than to have such a mother. The boy who makes a confident of & good mother, and all boys would if their mother would seek their confidence in the right spirit, is in little danger of becoming a reckless, dissipated man. T

One great evil resulting from the baneful home influence is the contempt which many men, and women also, have for the sacredness of the marriage relation; nor should it be a matter of surprise that children, accustomed to frequent bickerings and petty quarrels of parents who do not possess one particle of love for each other, should arrive at. manhood’ or womanhood with very littlé faith in the love and confidence which should and sometimes does exist between husband and wife.. When a man or woman loses such faith entirely, he or she has but one more step to take to enter upon the course of vice, which now bears the name ‘“social evil.” But what has all this to do with the ‘“woman question,” some one asks. Simply this: K ! it'is hoped to overcome social évils hy giv. ing the ballot to woman, because it is to be expected that she will legislate upon them. - As well might the farmer expect to eradi~onte the thistle from his fields by catting ~down the stalks, leaving the roots vigorous /88 ever, as to expect to reform society by legislation.

1 DOTY’S WASHING-MACHINE Lately Much Improved—and the New Universal Clothes-Wringer, Improved with Rowell’s Patent Double Cogwheels, and the Patent Stop, are now unquestionably far superior to any apparatus for wash ing clothes ever invented, and will save their cost twice a year, by Baving labor and clothes. Those who have used them give testimony as follows: i

[*We like our Machine much; could not be persuaded to do without it, aud with the aid of Doty, we feel that we are masters of the position.”'— hev. L, Scott, Bishop M. I. (leurr'fg ‘lt is worth one dollar a week in any family.’ —N. Y. Iribyne. - ! “In the latgzdry of my houpe there.is a perpetual thanksgiving on Mondays for the invention.”’ — Rev. Theodore L. Cuyler. ’ . “Evyery week has given it a stronger lold upon the affections of the inmatesof the laundry.” —N. Y, Observer. | |

I beartily commend it to economists of time, movey and contentment.”’— Rev. Dr, Bellows. “Friend Doty —Your last improvement of the Washing Machine is a complete success las sure you our Mschine, after a year’s use, is today tbou‘fhb more of than ever, and would not be parted with under any circumstances.” — Solon Robinson -

*“Your Wasbing Machine has been in nse in our laundry, and the housekeep¥r ‘expresses herself as highly pleased with it. It certainly accomplishes a greater amount of work, with less labor, and does not wear the clothes near so much as the old-fashioned wagh-board.— W, M. F. Rounds, Superintendent Qflnfant Department of St. Catherine’s Nursery, N. ¥. City. . ‘“l'have had one of the Universal Wringers in my house, and it has been used every week for over five years, and ist.ow as, good as new. I have als¢ had a Doty Washer for some three years, wliich we use éverv week, and could not well get along without. It is as good as ever, and will last years yet.—Z. "D, Van Slyck, Fditor of Democratic &p., Hamilton, N. V. The N. Y. Weekly Lribune, of Dec. 15, 1869, in answer to a correspondent, says: ‘‘ Of Washers, there is none to be compared with Doty’s.”
