The Vice President is getting along Very well, thank you l A great big corn crop is likely to be oue of the results of 1885. Confidence is bciug restored, and business will consequently improve. Indiana furnishes better stone for building purposes than any State in the Union. Ohio is having a prohibition campaign. As a rule, the Republican speaker wants his “nip” on the sly. Gov.

President Barnard, of Columbia College, objects to the newly coined Word—1‘•mugwump.” lie says it embodied all that is disagreeable in sound, malicious in purpose and ugly iu appearance, and belongs to a class of words that is hideous, vulgar and offensive.

Some men are horn groat and some tAou die great. The latter is patriotic; though death often takes heroes when the zenith of their glory has lleeu reached and in retirement they <*>nld pass many years, while sthcre ’t'ould bo none but would do them lionor. Though born in obscurity, draut died the greatest of great men. The Austrain Court will have no American representative, Mr. Kciley being rejected because his wife was a Jewess. This country is free; every one here has the freedom of religion, •nd if this was the reason of Mr. Kelley's rejection, our foreign friends will do well lo follow our example in the freedom ot religious worship.

“Better Times for Everybody,” is the caption of a recent artide in Sunday’s Enquirer, which sets forth that business meu all believe “revival has actually begun.” It cites the cheapness of money as a factor that must bring renewed prosperity to commercial men. The consumer, it concludes, will be able to buy supplies at a lower pricey because capit alists and manufacturers are cor.vineed great fortunes can never again be made in a few years. To the masses it truthfully declares : “The apparently small diffe rence of one per cent per can in their cauucd fruits or vegetables, a half cent per pound in their sugar, starch or soap, and a dollar ’cut’ in the price of a suit of working clothes, is a matter of vital importance. We have constantly affirmed that the remarkable era of hard times through which wo have been ^passing, and from which we really believe the country to be gradually emerging, will, iu i|s ultimate results, prove beneficial, because it will promote and perpetuate the period of better living at cheaper rales.” Blessing an Honorable Foe.—The Mobile Register thus gives the fraternal feeling of the South for the dead General: “Grant couqucred ns. He caused no man to pass under the yoke. He spared us the final disgrace. He took us by the hand, gave the officers their aide arms, left with the men tbe'r horses and mules to till the ground, aud he sent us home to our families to remain in peace unmolested. The North opened Pandora's box upon us, but Grant left Hope within if. He grasped the hand of our Lee and protected him from the political hyenas. God bless his memory for what he did for us when tlic sun went down atApromattox! For that act may God bless mm in the spirit world to which his bravo soul has winged its flight,” Attornet General Hord, has rendered an opinion on the Medical bill, and among other questions answered is the one relating to a physician attending a case ou tside of the county for which he has a license. On this point Mr. Ilord says: “If a physician who has procured a license in one county in this State, and thereby lawfully declared to tie qualified to practice his profession in tiiis State, should bo required to attend and render professional service iu a single transaction iu case of emergency, in another and different county in which he has procured no license, I do not think his act would be unlawful.” "^he work of the township assessors next year will be quite voluminous. In addition to listing the personal property and real estate they will be required to enroll the name of every soldier of the war of 1812, the Mexican war, of the wars with Indians and of the war of the rebellion. In addition to this the names of every widow of a soldier, and the children of such, under 19 years, arc to be enrolled. After all this has been gathered the reports will be filed with the county clerks, aud be alphabetically arranged by them and forwarded to the commissioner of pensions. Republicans are beginning to realise ilijit the war is over. Simon Cameron said: “I am glad to know that Generals Johnston, Buckner and Gordon acted as pair bearers with Sherman aud Sheridan. Grant’s prayer for peace to his country his been answered, and the last bitterness of the war wiped out forever.” The t'emocracy lias had a long struggle to convince our Republican friends. But they have been convinced agaiust tiicir will.

\\ hen. a bad appointment is imposed upon the President the fellow is “bounced” as soon as his character is found out. We are iu an era of reform. It is difficult, however, for Republican statesmen to remember that there has been a chance of the party in power. Senator Teller’s recommendation of a horse thief for office was a piece of inadvertence doubtless due to a momentary forgetfulness of the fact that tliis is not a Republican administration. The President upholds the antimonopoly sentiment of the Democratic party. His actions have shown that he is more than “a figure-head” which his enemies pleased to call him ; and the monopolizing barons will hear more from him before he is many months older. Cleveland believes, as did the immortal Lincoln, in ^“government of the people, by the people, and for the people.” Some miscreaut fired a shot at Governor Gray, Monday evening, while the executive was out driving, the ball passing through the carriage. It is not known whether the shot was fired with nmrdorous iutent or at random. Secretary Heron, of the State Board of Agriculture, estimates the area of corn at 4,000.000 acres, and the average yield at forty bushelR per acre, nuking a grand total for the State of 130,000*000 umbels. Assistant Postmaster General Stevenson makes Democratic Postmasters at an average of 500 per'1 week. Let the aood work aro on.

Mackey is endeavoring to get an outlet to Chicago over the straight Line, E. W. & B, via Brazil; elections, for the purpose of votiug a tax to aid him, occurring next mouth at that place. A gentleman who visited the home of the l&te Governor Williams last week, says the farm looks neglected, not so much care being taken of the Slacc as when the lamented Blue eans was living thereon. The violent wind storm ou'Wednesday of last we«k did much damage at Rogers station and vicinity. The roof was toru from Rogers Bros.’ saw mill, several small buildings and outhouses were blown down, and many trees torn up by the roots. P. A. McCarty has fitted up a shooting gallery and otherwise improved his place of business.

Merrick bought 1,000 bushels of wheat, Monday, and every day buys large quantities, paying therefor about 82 cents per bushel. Most of the grain comes from Knox county. It is all hauled by team to Wiuslow, loaded on cars there and shipped to destination. George Gullick is assisting Mr. Merrick, and the large amount being handled keeps the boys hustling. W. H. Russell, an advance courier of Barrett’s show, a former resident of Pike, scuds the Democrat, from San Francisco, California, a map of the Chinese quartet-of that city— Chinatown—and also a paper contain ing au extended report of the committee who visited that quarter of the city, whieh they report to be filled with squalor, misery, disease and wickedness. The committee’s details are revoltin in the extreme. Culverts, Bridges and Roads. The last legislature passed an important law, the provisions of which are but little known, but which are of interest to every tax-payer. Under the old law the trustees have no money in the township treasury to use for road purposes, and no matter how small the expenditure they have been compelled to go to the County Commissioners for appropriation for the improvements in the way of culverts and bridges, while there are no funds to be had from any source for the repair or improvement of the road bed. The new law authorizes what, will be known as the “Special Road Levy,” which the trustees are to make as any other levy, and to be collected the same. This levy must be paid in cash, and cannot be worked out as the regular road levy, which is still in force as before, in addition to this special levy and poll tax. The funds secured by this “special read levy” are to be used by township trustees in constructing culverts, and in puttiug gravel upon the roads; and, us naturally follows, the higher the levy, the higher the tax, aud the more money the more gravel reads.

—— Your KIDNEYS They Xeccl Your Immediate Attention. HERE'S A CASE. For six long, dreary years I li»ve been a (treat sufferer from a complaint of my kidneys which failed to be cured by physicians or ad vertised remedies. 1 began to feel I could never secure relief, as I had spent two hundred uud fifty dollars without success. This disease was socxcrnciating that It often prevented me from performing my daily duty I was advised to try the efficacy of B. B. B. and one single bottle,' costing ft, gave me more relief than all the combined treatmen I had over received. . Its action on the kidneys Is simply wonderful, and any one who needs a real, speedy and harmless kidney medicine should not hesitate to give B. B. B. a trial. One bottle will convince any one. C. H. ROBERTS, Atlanta Water Works. HERE'S ANOTHER. I am a merchant of Atlanta, and am near 60 years of ago. My kidneys have been inactive and irregular for years, attended with excruciating pain In the small of the back. At times I became too nervous to attend to business. My case had all the attention that money could secure, but only to result in a complete failure. B. 11. B. was recommended, and to say ttfrat Its action on me was magical would be a mild term. One bottle made mo feel like a new man—just like I was young again. In all my life I never used so powerful and potent a remedy. For the blood and the kidneys lit Is the best I ever saw, and one bottle will farce any one to praise it. A. L.D. Sold by Frank & Hornbrook, Druggists.
