A new boom ha been entered in tlie resideutiiil race and is now traveling across the horizon. Senator Harrison, of Indiana, has returned borne from Washington, and is vigorously at work making his.state solid for him at the Chicago convention. In these days of placid stillness, and freedom from political strife in cither of the great parties, the anti-monopoly par ty cf this nation is in session at Chicago,- and is going through the motions of nominating a presidential ticket. The delegates oi this State who nominated and fleeted themselves in secret caucus, will represent no element of any strength; when such royal ami-monopolists as Senator Reynolds, of Butler Co., get to Chicago they should nominate "Calanu'.s" Wller for president and then come :nd report. How u wad slone works is explained iu the foi'owing telegram sent from Terre Haute, lml., to the Associated Pre.-s: At 9 o'clock this morning, Chas. lha do and las sou George, af St. Mary's of the Woods, were bitten by a mad dog. After they were bitten they came to the city and a mad-stone was applied to toe wrist. Three attempts were made to reiiiove the stone but without avail. The tlesh is drawn about the stone, and a watery substance comes from the stone. The straight cut republicans in Vir ginia are preparing a vigorous move ment upon the Chicago convention, which will be asked to decide between seating the Mahone convention del egates or the delegation elected by the straightouts. When it is remembered that th e latter delegation is solid Blaine, and trie Mahone delegation practically for Arthur, it will be readi ly seen that the lively contest before the committee on credentials in the Chicago convention will be found in this contest from the Oi l Domnion. Dr. Miller rises to inform "we cit izens" of Platumouta that thero aro no mad dogs here, and that the mad part comes in with the men who abuse the dogs. We have entertained a like opinion iu a certain degree oursell. In the last dog ami inau encounter that we participated in, the man appeared to be the madder of the two, but the dog was very energetic. Perhaps the doc tor in his recollections of childhood, knows what it is to have a man swear, and unchain the dog; in which event, he is correct in sayiDg the man, and not the dog, is mad. This is true phi losophy. OUR friend General Yifquain sees the tariff question in every passiug cloud, and no event of the least importance occurs, but that the "iniquitous tariff" shows its hydra head to the General. A short time ago a personal friend of both Mr. Vifquain and ourself, Miss Ella Wheeler, decided to wed, and tbe only disqualification that she possessed was the penchant for poetry, and this not being a valid one wed ehe did But what seems to trouble our friend, the General, seem to be that the pas sionate singer of upper Wisconsin mar ried a protectionist. Hear his hidden denunciation: "Miss Ella Wheeler's imaginings have turned to a poetically practical account. Her early career was the reg ular story of poverty and privation. But at last a Mr. Wilcox, a bloated Connecticut protectionist, canght ou to her poems of passion, wrote to her, visited her, and GRally married her, and carried hrr to an island home ou the Connecticut coast, which is quite beau tiful and romantic enough to pacify the longings of a poetic soul."

I wish to notify the public that I am now open for business, at Joe McVey's old stand, where I have in stock a full line of Kentucky whiskies, St. Louis beer, wines and cigars &c, as good as the best. 57dtf II.

Physical, natural and moral culture, lead to progress tnd to God. Those girls are all a wicked show, For man's delusion giyen. Their smiles of j'y and tiars of woe Deceitful shine, dt-c; itful flow, Not ono is true in seven. They love jou for a little while, And tell you naught thall sunder Two lovidg hearts, then full of guile, Bait others with their witching smile, And you may go to thunder. The first clash of innocence with guilt is a memorable crisis in one's life. Jefferson Davis wakes up long enough to remark that ho should do just the same if he had it to do all over agaiu. But the government; wouldn't do the same with you Jefferson. Corrupt legislators p.re the offspring and index of a corrupt public opinion. We observe that the son of an Indian chief is leartiug.to be a plumber. This will enable him to scalp people without the aid of a knife. A poet ha written a pc em entitled, 'Why do I Liver" Simply because the editors of this country nro not 1 alf as murderous a set as they are painted. He wins at last who builds his trt st in loving words and a tkns iu- The winter's blast is stern and cold, yet summer has its ha.-vist go d. Old Mr. Topeas.. fell overboard. He was fished cut and sent ho i e, and wl.i'e tearfully recounting hU misfor tune to his wife he sa-d: "I swallowed about a gallon of water." "Then you ki;ow what it tasto3 like at last," returned Mrs. T. Us wished he had be.n drowned. Take care of your character and your reputation will take care of itself. "Yes, indeed," said the high-school girl to her brother Jim, "iu this affair I obtained the gibbosit on Amy." "You did what?" inquired the by. "Ob tained the gibbosit the protruberancy, you know." "Is it anything to eat?" was the next question. "O dear no, you stupid boy merely a figure of speech what you would call got the bulge, only that is horrid slang. On every banner blazon bright, "lor toil, and truth, and love we fight." Men were given two eyes and one tongue, iu order to see twice as much as they say. Youngster to fond mother. 'Papa has heart trouble hasn't he?" "Yes my dear," That's why the doctor lays his head against his chest to list en, isn't it?" Yes, my child, but don't ask so many questions." "Is papa a doctor, too?" "No; why do you ask?" "Because he had his head against our nurs'es chest last night, listening ju&t if e, the doctor." ond mother leaves the room for a brief conversation with the nuree. Many men conquer adversity, and surrender to prosperity. A married dude who returned home unexpectedly and found auother dude hugging his wife, took a terrib'e re veDge. lie seized the visitor's slender silk tnmbrella from its resting place in the rack, broke it across nis knee, and roared out: "There, now! I hope it will rain real hard. Compensation is the law of exist ence, throughout the universe of God. "Dd you know the Jackson's?" asked a lady of a young man who lived in their neighborhood. "No, I'm not personally acquainied with all the mem bers of the family," he replied, but 1 always speak to the dog at the front gate as I go past.". Malevolence blot from the soul all feelings of bfeaoYDlonc?. Taxation is said (o bear equally on all classes, from the fact that it hardly presses on the rich and presses hardly on the poor. Be as solicitous to shun applause as assiduous to deserve it. We can discover no traces of a har ness shop ever being called a bridal chamber. There, Frances, you've caught an other cold, and I'll warrant you caught it when you were walking with Joe last night." "Oh, no, mother! I couldn't have caught it, then, 'cause we didn't go fast enough to catch anything; iu fact, we just 6at down on the stile and studied astronomy." "And did you have anything around you, my dear?" "Oh, yes, indeed I did! Joe 13 al -ways particular about that; ho won't allow me to Kit down anywhere iu the evening air without something around me." Our enemies speak of us as they hear; wo judge of ourselves as we feel. They were standing at the front gate. "Won't you come in tbe parlor and sit a little while, Georgie dear?" "N-no, I guess not," replied George hesitatingly. I wish yon would," the girl went on "It's awfully loneeome. Mother has gone out, aad father is up stairs groan ing with the rheumatism iu both of his legs." "Both legs?" a.ked Genrgf. "Yes, both lez.' 'Then I'll come in a little white-" We have no right to fcei bad bee ttse other people do Lot like us. Iu Philadelphia they have an organ ized woman's club who dress in nobby male attire, presumably because they like to wear the breeches. They wil have to wear their pants cut somewhat different from men, in order to let them sit down on tbe floor to got into their stockings. A christian's robe will become soiled if he wears them too fiowiogly. A Chicago woman remarried her hus band from whom she bad been di vorced, and then she got mad because he would net take her on a bridal tour. The reasonable worship of ajust God who punishes aud reward, would un doubtedly contribute to thi happiness of men! but when that salutary knowl edge of a just God is disfigured by ab surd lies and dangerous superstition, then the remedy turns to poison," "It seems to me," moaned Algernon, as he fled toward the front gate with the old man close behind him, "that there are more than three feet in the yard." A woman's life can da divided thus: the age when she dances but does not dare to waltz it is the spring; tbe age when she dances and dares to waltz it is summer; the ago when she dances but prefers to waltz it is au tumn; finally when she dances no long er it ie winter, that rigorous winter of life. A neighboring paper reporting a re -cent social says : Tbe opening piece was rendered by a mule quartet. The reporter wrote it "male quartet," but the compositor knew better. fiHCOUGH WA4 U W AI.IM ASSOX.T7TXI.T CTTBXS WH00H50 COIK. 7t U a harmless Tefcetabls yTnt,TCT7 do"-, the taste Kelicve 1 once and la a posltiv- WINTER and BRONCHIAL COU; K re enrad by this excellent remedy.
