- CENTAUR LINIMENTS. The Quick est, Surest and heﬁp_— est Remedies. :

Physiciaug recommend, and Fasrriers declare that no such remedies have ever before been in use. Words are eheap, but the proprietors of these articles will present trial bottles to medical ‘men. gratis, as a gnarantee ofswhat they say. ° i The Centaur Lintment, White Wrapper, will care Rheumatism, Neuralgia, Lumbago, Sciatica, Caked Breasts, Sore Nipples, Frosted Feet, Chillblains, Swellings, Sprains, and any ordinary FLESH, BONE OR MUSOLE AIDMENT,

We make no pretense that this article will cure Cancer, restore lost bones, or give bealth to a whisky soaked carcass. But it will always reduce inflammation and allay pain. : ; 1t will extract the poison of bites, stings, and heal burns or scalds without a scar. Palsy, Weak Back, Caked Breasts, Earache, Toothache, Itch and Cutaneous Eruptions readily yield to its treatment. g =

Henry Black. of Ada, Hardin Co., Ohio, 'says: My wife bas had rheumatism for five years—no rest, no sleep—cou'd scarcely walk across the floor. Sheis now cumpletely cured by the use of Centaur Liniment. We all feel thankful to you, and recommend your wonderful medicine to all our friends.” | 5 James Hurd, of Zanesville, 0., says: ‘TheCentaur Liniment;cured my Neuralgia.” Alfred Tush, of Newark. writes: *‘Send me one dczen bottles by express. The Liniment has saved my leg.. I want to distribute it, etc.” The sale of this Liniment is increasing rapidly. . The Yellow Centaur Liniment is for the tough ekin, flesh and mnscf!es of HORSES, MULES AND ANIMALS, We have never yet seen a case of Spavin, Sweeny, Ring-bone, Wind-gall, Scratches or Poll-Evil, which’ this Li. iment would not speedily benefit, and we never saw but a few cases whieh it would not cure. It will eure when anything can. Itis folly to spend §2O, for a Farrier, when one dollar’s worth of Centaur Liniment will do better. The following is a sample of the tesfimony produced : :

W. P. Hopkins. Postmaegter, Pigaa, O, says: ‘*Centaur Liniment can’t be beat. It cures every time.” - y

Ym.vmj{m, 0., March 2, 1874, *The; Ceutaur Liniments are the best selling medicines we have ever had. Thedemand is very great fmy‘ir, and we cannot affoid to be without it. ! } . ‘P.H.HISEY & SON.”

JEFFERSON, Mo., Nov, 10, 1873. - “‘Some time ago I was shipping horses 1o St Louis I got one badly crippled in the car. With great difficulry I got him to the stable The sta-ble-keeper gave me a botgle of your Centaur Liniment, whick I nred with Zuccess that in two days the borse was active and bearly well.'

Castoria!

Dr. Samuel Pitcher, of Hyannis, Mass., experimented in his private practice for thirty years to produce a combination that would have the properties -of Castor ®il without its unpleasant taste and griping effect. P -

His preparation wassent for, néar and far, till finally he gaye it the name of Castoria, and pukit up for sale. Itis very wondérful in its effects, particularly with the disordered stomachs and bowels of children. It assimilates the food. cares gour stomach and wind colic, regulates the bowels, expels worms, and may be rclied upon in croup. b e b As a pleasant, effective and perfectly safe cathartie remedy it is superior to Castor Oil, Cordials and Syrups. . It does not contain ﬂlﬁ‘oho), and is adapted to any agc. - i3} By regulating the stomach and bowels of cross and rickly children they become good-na-tured and healthy. They can evjoy steep and ‘mothers have rest. The Castoriais putup a the Laboratory of J. B. Rose & Co., 46 Dey street, New York. i ch qr-Iy-9:tc

CENTENNIAL POEM--OUR RE-

Written an%'read by Mes. D. Dopes, at the re- ' union of the Richmond family, in Ashtabula county, Ohio, September 20, 1876. . |

Three years éflife’s battlesagain have beer fought. Three yeas since we met, in happy convention.

MATCH MAKING.-

«I wouldn’.marry the best man that ever lived!” '~ : And she meant it, or, what answers the same pwrpose, she thought she meant it. ~ After all, how few of us ever really know what we do mean? “I engaged myself once when a girl; and the six@xpﬁe,ton thought he owned me. I soon took The ‘conceit out of him, and seht him about his business.” WESR Y. & e

The voice was now a’ trifle sharp. What wonder, with so galling a mem‘ory ? L , ~#No mansshall every tyranize over me—never! What the muschief, do you suppose is the matter with this sewing machine?” : = Rl “Annoyed at your logic, most like-, ly,” said my' friend, a' bright-eyed young matron, as she ' threaded her needle. ilo wohngiie %

“My fiusband is not.a tyrant, Miss Keng> - oo e o “T am glad "you dre satisfied,” was the laconic'answeér.: =

It was gunite-evident by the expression of the dress.maker’s face that she had formed her own opinion about;my friend’s husband, and was quite competent to form and express an opinion on any subject. : Miss Kent was a little woman, as ffair as a girl and as plump as a robin. She wasn’t ashamed to own that she was'4o years old and an ‘old maid. She had earned her own living most of her life, and was proud of it. Laziness was_fthe one sin Miss Kent could not forgive. She was a good nurse, a” faithful friend, and a jolly companion; but stroke her the wrong way, and yowd wish you hadn’t in much shorter time than it takes me to write it. “Her views. on all sub: jects were strikingly original, and'not to Be combated. ; 1y . “What are you going to do when _you are old ?” -persisted the mistress of the establishment. . | = .

“What other old folks do, I suppose.” i S “But you can’t work forever.,” . “Can’t say that I want to.” “Now, Miss Kent, a husband with means, a kind, 'ntelligent man—""_

“I don’t want. I don’t want any man.. I tell you, Mrs. Carlisle, I, would not marry- the best man that ever lived, if he was as rich as Creesus, and would die if I didn’t have him. Now if you have exhausted the marriage question, I should like to try on your dress.” :

That there was something behind all this I knew well.” My friend’s eyes danced with fun; and as Miss Kent fitted the waist, she threw me a letter from the bureau, el

“ Read f,h_z;_t',,—’;,“s;he said, with a know. ing look. “It may athuse you.” This is what the letter said: e

“My DEAR JENNIE: I shall be delighted to spend a month with you and your husband. There must be, however, one stipulation about my visit — you must promise to say no more about marriage.. I shall never be foolish' agdin. Twenty-five years ago to-day I 'wrecked my whole life.” - “Better embark in a newship, hadn’t he ?” put in Jennie; sotto voce. |

- “30 unsuitable was this marriage, so utterly and entirely wretched have been its consequences, that I am forced to believe the marriage institution a mistake. So, for the last time, let me assure you that I wouldn’t marry thé best woman' that ever lived, if by so doing I could save her life. Your old cousin, “MARK LANSING.”'* . “Rieh, isn’t ;it?” said Jennie, and then pointed to the chubby little figu(ll'e whose back happened to be turned. . ‘ :

- I shook my head and laughed. “Yowll see,” continued the incorig~ ible. st i !

“See what?” inquired’ Miss XKent, quite unaware of our pantomine. “That particles which are chemically attracted will unite. Of course an alkali and/fan acid—don’t you think this sleeveis a little too long, Miss Kent?? ‘' : . “Not after the seam is off. But what were you saying about alkalies and acids, Mrs. Carlislé? ' The other day at Prof. Boynton’s I saw some wonderful experiments,” @ " ' “Did they Bucceed?” inquired Jennie demurely. R

“Beautifully.” : ~ “So will mine. T never botched a jobin mylife o~ - e 19T don’t think I quite understand you,” said Miss Kent, perplexed. -~ ~ “No? I always grow scientific when talking about mar‘rlﬂge.g@} o

' “Bother!” was all the little. woman said, but the tone was much better natured than I expected. * | . The'next week Cousin Mark arrived, and Iliked him at once. An unhappy ‘marriage would: have been the last thing thought of in connection with the gentleman., He had excepted the: situation like a man, Jennie told me, and for fifteeu years carried a load of misery that few could have endured, Death came to his relief at last, and now the poor fellow honestly believed himself an alien from domestic happiness i ;

~ 'Singular as it may appear, Cousin Mark was the embodiment of good health and good nature; 50, perhaps, though he didn t look it, and asrotund and fresh in his way as the little dressmaker was in hers. As I looked at him, I defied anybody else 'to see one and not be immediately reminded of the other. True, he had more of the polish' which comes from travel and adaptation to different classes and 'individuals, but he was not a whit more intelligent by nature than was the bright little woman whom Jennie had determined he should marry. “I was surprised you should think necessary to eaution me about that, Cousin Mark,” cooed the plotter, as she stood by his side looking out of the window. *“The idea of my being soridiculous!” and in the same breath, with a wink at me, “Come, let us go to my sitting-room. We are at work" there, but it won’t make any differ= ence to you, will it?” ‘

Of course Cousin Mark answered "“no,”” promptly, as innocent as a_dove about the trap being{laid for him. . “This is my cousin—Mr. Lansing, Miss Kent,” and Mr. Lansing bowed politely, and Miss Kent arose, dropped her scissors, blushed, and sit' down 'again. Couisin Mark picked up the refractory implements, and then Mrs. Jennie proceeded, with rare caution and tact, to her labor of love. Cousin Mark, at her request, read aloud an article from the Popular Science Monthly, drawing Miss Kent into the discussion as deftly as was ever a fly drawn into the web of the spider. : “Who was that lady, Jennie ?”” Cous; in Mark inquired in the evening. “Do you mean Miss Kent?” said Jennie, looking up from her paper. “Onh, she is a'lady I have known for. a long time. She is making some dresses for me now. Why?” “She seemed uncommonly well posted, for a woman.” . ' " . Under other circumstances ]ng, Carlisle would have resented this, but now she only queried. “Do you think 80?” and that ended it. . . Two or threeinvitations:to the sew-ing-room were quite sufficient to make Cousin Mark perfectly at home there; and after a week he became as familiar as this. e : : - “llf you aremot too busy, I should like to read you this article;” and this is what Miss Kent would say: : “QOh, I am never too busy to be read to. Sit down by the window in this comfortable chair and let’s hear it.” . _After a eouple of weeks, when the gentleman came in, hoarse with a suddén cold, Miss Kent bustled about,her voice full of sympathy, and brewed him & dose which he declared he should never forget to his dying day; but one dose cured him. After this, Miss Kent . was a really wonderful woman... bt .

Aye, Jennie was an archplotter. ‘She let them skirmish about, but not onee did she ‘give them a ehance to be alone ftngether——her- plans. were:.not: to be destroyed by premature .confidence—until the very evening preceding cous sin Mark’s degggm Q;L!(lj;mlifornia.——“ Then Miss Kent was very “demurely asked ‘o remain and keep an eye on master Carlisle, whom the fond mother, did not like to leave quite aloné with his nurse.

- “We are compelled to be gonea couple of hours; but:cousin Mark will read to you, won’t you, cousin ?”

“Certainly, if Miss Kent would like it,” replied the gentleman. , ; The infant Carlisle, thanks to good management, was never awake in the evening, so the victims of this matrimonial speculation would have plenty of time, . The back parlor was the room most in use during the evening, ‘and out of this room was a large closet with a large blind ventilatqir, and out of this closet a door leading to-the back stoop and garden. Imagine my surprise when I was informed that Mr. Carlisle was ‘going to lodge, and that we, after profuse warnings about the baby, and promises not to be gone too long, were to proceed to this closet overlooking the'back parlor via back gate and garden. : In vain I protested.

“Why, you goose,” laughed Jennie, ‘‘there’ll'be fun enough to last a lifetime. John wanted to come awfully, but I knew he’d make a noise and spoil everything,so T wouldn’t let him.” The wily schemer had taken the precaution.to lock the closet door from the outside, so there was no fear of detection. On ahigh bench, as still as two mice, we awaited results.

We came away then, but it's my opinion that they remained in just that position till we rang the bell half an hour after. ‘“How did you know?” I asked of Jennie. | Lo : .~ “My. dear,” she’ answered, “my wlole reliance was upon human nature; and.let me tell vyou, goosie, whatever else may fail, that never | doendic B il

“Why, Miss Kent, what makes your face so red?” inquired Jennie, upon entering; “and, Cousin Mark, how strangely you look! your hair is all mussed up.” S :“And I hope to have it: mussed often,” said Cousin Mark, beldly. :“Miss Kent and I are to be married next week.” ; L Jevc,

- An Old-time Democerat. . - A regular genuine old .Jackson Demoerat turned up at the Tilden and Hendricks meeting on Fulton; street, Brooklyn, on last Thursday night, and he made a speech that must have been refreshing to all that ‘heard ‘it.. On being introduced Judge Barnard said: “It is a very long timesinge I have made a speech.. I have leen called upon sometimes to act as chairman of meetings and intreduce the speakers, but have not made speeches myself. I was pretty active in politics 50 years ago, s 0 you see I must be pretty old. (Cheers.)

Those exd penses must be reduced, and Samuel J.

Wien I said it was the high taxes that'made the times so bad, he said, “How can that be, when I don’t pay any taxes at all ?”. Don’t you ?” said I. . ‘I suppose you sometimes have to buy clothing, don’t you ? “Oh no,’ he said, ‘I can’t afford to buy clothes.’ But you drink coffee or tea ?’ ‘O, no; I'm too poor to drink coffee or tea, (Laughter). -Well, then, perhaps you buy a drink of lager once in 3 while; ‘Oh, no; I would like a lit,tl%, but I can’t buy it.” (Applause.) And, after saying this, he put his hand in his pocket and pulled out -an old wad of tobacco, and with a_self-complacent air, asif he had cornered a man that thought himself smart, he proceeded to take a quid. ‘AD, said I, ‘you use tobacco. Don’t you know that the ‘government collects more tax off from that ; article than almost apy other? I had him there, and he lovked as if hie wished he hadn’t taken that chew.”

Address to Former Comradey and Brothers-in-Arms,

’ . COMRADES: For a number of years _bast, many good citizens, without regard to their former political affini‘ties, have seriously deprecated’ and earnestly denounced: the persistent and dictatorial spirit in which radical leaders -have long been dnd are stjll attempting. to rekindle the old war feeling ot animosity, and to make use of sem¢-military organizations for mere partisan ‘ends; these - efforts, tending to force upon the country the false . impression _that Republicans alone fouglit the battles -of the Union cause; that none. of: the soldiers of ‘that army can now be expected to vote any other than the Radical ticket; that every Union -soldier must still array himself against a section of qur country, and continue to denounce the people he helped to overcome in a civil war; a people who laid down their arms; surrendered to superior power; and returned to their duty and | their allegiance more than eleven years . ago; while. no occasion has. been lost, since tlie .war, in which Grand National Séldiers’ and Sailors’ Conventions and: Reunions, swelled by parades’ of the “boys in’ blue,”. the G. A.R. and other military {politicoassociations . ahd -leagues, that they have not.lieen' made to suhserve the purposes :of engendering sectional strife and perpetuating radical repub-,l Jican misrule. g s

These ‘amendments were acceptedand were ratified by the Legislatures ‘ot three-fourths of the States. The Congtessional enactments passed. to enforce these cond'i:ti"oris' were: ’subrirrxﬁvtl;te'(} to, and acquiesced in in good faith. The Southern, people were thus restored-to-al¥ their civilrights by all'the forms of law;and it is now:‘_bh(; a lilockéry and repudiation of the tetms of their contra(‘:tf, at ‘every retui‘ning'elecit_.lon, to: threaten them again with the grim trade of death, and tolift still higher the bleeding testamentot war.
