Major Alvan F. HovayVho Recently Died in California. A man died recently in Santa Mo nica , Cal. , who won the right to be called the original Republican. This was Major Alvan E. Bovay. Born in New York eighty- five years ago , Ma jor Bovay emi grated to Wiscon sin in early life , settling in Ripen , became a lawyer of p r o m i nence , joined the Whig party , acted some times with the SIAJ. A. E. BOVAY. Frec-Soilers , and started the first systematic movement known anywhere in the United States to unite the anti-slavery men of all' parties into the coalition which as sumed the Republican name. This took shape in a meeting at Ripen on February 28 , 1854 , four days before the passage of the Kansas-Nebraska bill through the Senate , but when its enactment was seen by the country ( o be inevitable. At that meeting , Avhich was participated in by Whigs , Free-Sellers and Democrats , and which was followed by another on March 20 , in each of which Bovay was the master spirit , a new partisan com bination was formed , which adopted the name Republican , suggested by it self. At nearly the same time , though a little later in each instance , gather ings of freedom's champions Avere held in various parts of the country , the participants in which , in most cases , joined the new party. May 23 , 185-1 , three months oftcr the. first of Bovay's meetings , and a day after the passage of the Kansas Ne braska bill in the House , thirty Whig and Democratic members of that body met in Washington , pledged themselves to aid in forming a party to combat slavery extension into the Territories , and agreed that it should be called Re publican. Between Bovay's meetings and this one many other gatherings with the same object in view took place in the free States. In time , date and circumstance that was the origin of the Republican party of to-day. EPITAPHS IN NEW ENGLAND. Old-Time Ways of Taking : Leave oS the Proud World. Among those time-worn burying grounds.in which New England is sd rich are many doggerel mementoes of the departed which , but for the solera * nity of death in which they are en shrouded , would partake of the farci cal. In an obscure corner of York's ancient cemetery is an epitaph which quire evidently was not dictated by tha occupant of the grave which the stone marks , for it thus memorializes the departed : Here lies the body of Jonathan Drew , \Vlio cheated all he ever knew. His Maker he'd have cheated , too , But that his God he never knew. Here is one worthy of emblazonmem for the warning of the indiscreet : "Emma , daughter of Abraham and Ma tilda Cox , and wife of Theodore Shal * leu , died July 9 , 1847 , aged ' 20 years , leaving five children ; married too young against her father's will. Sini gle women , take warning. * ' In the quaint old Kittery Point ( Me. ) cemetery , prostrate upon the bank of the Piscataqua , is a granttd block bearing these words , rough hewn by the hand of a member of the only race in the world that could have orig inated such a "bull" : Bridget and I have two children dear , One in Ireland and the other here. Maine is particularly rich in grave stone oddities , but no inscription oi them all can cap this one , which dis plays to such advantage the bitterness of a local warfare over the individual medicinal qualities of the noted springs of two old towns : Here lies John Jones and his two dnugh ters.

Medicine Never Healed a Wound Nature performs the healing process and medicine can only as sist her in doing her work in healing wounds and throwing on diseases , ine-tenths of the diseases of man and beast have their origin in some form of germs and if allowed to run and multiply form complications. The reason that Liquid Koal prevents all S germs dieases and cures them , unless fermentation and inflamma tion have too far developed , is that it contains every antiseptic and geiraicida known to science. All germ diseases such as hog cholera , swine rlague , corn stalk diseasestubercolosis. blackleg and numerous others can bs prevented by giving Liquid Koal in drink ing water , because they are germ diseases and no germ can live where Liquid Koal reaches ifc. Liquid Koal is unaffected by the gastric juices of the stomach , passes through the intestines and from there into the circulation , oermeatlng the whole system and still retains all its germicial properties. Diluted with water , in the proportion of one to one hundred , it makes the best lice killer known. Price of Liquid Koal delivered at your station is as follows : ONE QUART CAN 51.00 TEN GAL.
