"V.'ill he be in?" :iskt d the meek one.
"I think not," answered Mr. Tuseh.
"I J.avt? not seen hini.it. some t'me.
and I'm afraid I wouldn't know him."
'He's no doubt changed cro;it deal

monosyllable Tuscli.
"Do you know where I wou'd be

"He did not cay win-re he w.isgoin;,'."
"Is there- any n'ace that Le fre

to be disLiirbfd."
. "Can I sit ''.own and wait?" asked the
tf--ntleman.
"Oh, certaiy! Jo!.:i,givc tliC gei t!e
nian a chair."
The gentleman waited for so i e timr
.ind then became uneasy; iiimily he
aiked: "Is there any .ossiuility of his
being in to-day?"
"No, I think not."
"How long since he was in?"
"Six months."
"How is tl at? '
"He's dead."
"Why the d didn't you say so?'
'You didn't ask me."
Then the genU'-niati pul ed out two
quarts of hair and hi ked over a table.
John fed off the oiliee stool, struck the
floor with his s-.h"Ol end and made a
dent the shape-of two butter crackers
in the door, and Mr. Tusch, remarking
that "some people dfdn't know enough
to ask for what they want "d," we-t in
to executive se.soiou with the man.
One of "the chief elements that hasten
the seeding of plants is a scanty supply
(f food. The giowthof the cabbage,
for instance, in i s leafy state, is only
protracted by a liberal allowance of
manure. Indeed th-? abnormal supply
of food that vegetables ol-taits in their
cultivated condition i.-- l!ie j i nicipal in
llucnce wh-li alters their habit of
youth. Liberal manuring, and a soil
of good physical capacity, are well
l.nown to have the e fleet of protracting
the period of bulbing in turnips, w h !o
the opposite conditions, l gl.t manuring
and a dry soil, cause tlu p anta to
'lower.

Thk Srx will Le printed every day
dnriny t!:e year to come. Its purpose
and method will he the same as in the
past: To present a?l , the news in a rea
dable shape. nr,d to tell the truth
though the heavens fall.
Tin: Sex has heen, is, and wil con
tinue to Le independent of every body
and everythii."; save the Truth and its
own convections of duty. That is the
only policy which an honest newspaper
nee I have. That is the policy which,
has won for this newspaper the confi
dence and friendship of a wider consti
tuency than was ever enjoyed by !iY
other American Journal.
Thk tjrx is the newspaper for the
people. 1 1 is not for the rich man
against the poor man, or for the poor
man against the rich man, but- it seeks
to do equal justice to all interests in
the community. It is not the orjjanof
any person, class, sect or party. Theie
need be no mystery about its loves and
hates. It is for the honest man against
the rogues every time. It is for the
honest Democrat as against Hie dis
honest Keptil.liean, and for the honest
Kepublieau against thedishonest Dem
ocrat. It does not take its cue from
the ut( ranee of any politician or polit
ical organiza' ion. It gies its suppoit
itiii esei V( diy when m n or measures
arc in agreement with the Constitution
and with the principles upon which
IMS lii'i'iiUiic was luiiuueu im ii;e peo
ple. Whenever the Constitution and
constitutional principles are violated
as i:i the outragioiis conspiracy of
by which a man not ekcted was
placed "in the President's Of.iee, w here
he still remains it speaks out for the
right. This is The Si n's jik-a of inde
pendence. In this respect there will l e
no change in ils programme for lb7.).
Thk si x has fairly earned the hear
ty hatred of rascals, frauds, and hum
bugs of all sorts and sizes. It hopes to
deserve that hatred not lee 3 in the
yoar loT:), than in lt7S. 1N77, cr any
year gone by. Tin. Srx will contin.no
to shine on the wicked with unmigr.it
ed bright ncs.
While the lessons of the past should
bo constantly kept before the people,
Tin: Srx does not propose to make it
self in lb7'J a magazine of ancient his
tory. It is printed for the men and
women of to-day, whose conceiii is
chietly wiih the affairs of to-day. It
lias both the disposition and the abil
ity to afford its readers with promptest,
fullest, and most accurate intelligence
of whatever in the wide world is worth
attention. To this end the resources
belong to well-cstaHUhed prosperity
will be liberally employed.
The present disjoi.ited condition of
parties in this country, and the uncer
tainty of the future, lend an extraor
dinary significance to trie events of the
coming year. The discussion of the
press, the debates and act of Cougre.-s,
and the movements of tiie leaders in
every section of the Pepublic will have
a direct Lear ins; on the Presidential
election of 1S'. an event that must
le regarded with the most anxious in
terest by every patriotic American,
whatever his political ideas or alle
giance. To these elements of interest.
may be added the piobabihty thai the
Democrats will control both houses
of Congress, the increasing feebleness
of the fraundalent Administration,
and the spread .and strenghthc;ng
everywhere of a healthy abhorence of
fraud in any form. To present e with
accuracy ami clearness the exact situa
tion in each of its varying phases, and
to expound, according to its well
known methods, the principles that
should guide us through the labyrinth,
will bejan important part of TiikScx's
work for 1S7U.
We have the means of making Thk
Srx. as a political, a literary and a gen
eral newspaper, more entertaining and
more useful than ever before; and we
mean to apply them freely.
Our rates of subscription remain un
changed. For the Daily Srx, a four

the price by mail, postpaid, is "' cents

A DOCTOR SAYS.
Dr. I. Guy Lewis, of Fulton Ark., writes ; "Ono
year ajro I was taken 6ick, a friend nrgued eo
ptrouglv In favor of Tutt's Tills that I was in
duced to use them. 2iever did medicine have a
happier eft' A-t than in my c:u-e. After a practico
of a quarter of a century I proclaim them the
be?t anti-bilious medicine ever used. I have pro-J
ecribed them iu my practice ever since."
SUPERIORITY OF

They are compoundod front medicinal substan
ces that are positively free from any properties
that can in the least dejnve injure the mo:-t deli
cate oryiiiizatiou. The- fearch, cleanse, pl'.rii-,
and invigorate the entire system. J'.v relieving
tho engorged liver, they cleanse the blood f rom.
poisonous humors, and thus impart renewed
health ond vitality to the body, causing the bow
els to act naturally, without which no one caa
feel well.
