ENTERED AT THE POST OFFICE
AT DEN1SON, TEXAS, AS SECOND
CLASS MATTER
A man named Joe Blessington
was knocked lorn the bridge of the
Houston and Texas Central railroad
over White Oak Bayou at Houstou,
Wednesday, by ail engine, arid fall-
ing thirty feet, was dangerously hurt
about the head.
Mary A. Murray, who was re-
moved Monday from her position as
clerk in the post office at Baltimore,
has brought suit against Postmaster
Tyler, claiming $20,000 damages
for assault. Miss Murray was the
principal witness against the post-
master in a recent investigation.
.1 . II
It is believed that the Mexican
congress will do nothing to forward
railroail communication with the
United States. The tone of the re-
spectable press of Mexico is decided-
ly favorable to closer intercourse
with the United States, but some
parties without influence or stand-
ing are endeaving to make capital
for themselves bv showing great pa-
triotism 111 their anti-American
spirit.
Keilogg's Case.
The Senate committee on privi-
leges and elections has granted the
request submitted by Senator Kel-
logg lor the dozen additional wit-
nesses in his behalf. Among them
is Mr. Twitchell, ex-member of the
Louisiana legislature, and now Uni-
ted States consul at Kingston, Cana
da. The subpoenas are returnable
January 10th, on which day the tak-
ing of testimony in the Kellogg-
Spofford case will therefore be re-
sumed.
Some recent statistics show that
weekly wages of laborers in San
Francisco average a little more than
$18 a week. This includes nearly
all classes, from the domestic at $5
a week up to the harness makers at
$36. The average is from $5 to $6
more than is paid in the East ami
from $10 to $15 more than is paid
c same classes of workmen in
Europe. Ordinary articles of food,
too, are cheaper in California than
East, and the general cost of living
not essentially greater.
At the reception tendered Gen
eral Grant in Philadelphia on the
19th, the General made a short
speech during which he said his
visit abroad had enabled him to see
how greatly our foreign trade could
be increased in Europe. It is already
well taken care of, he rerraked, but
in the East, America is only begin-
ning to be known and appreciated.
We are badly represented there. It
should be so changed as to allow our
representatives to increase their com-
pel sation by acting as business
agents of American manufacturers
and business houses, thus making it
to their interest to increase and de-
velop our trade, rather than to rep-
resent it, as is at present the case.
What it Costs.
There is food for reflection in the
following, taken from the Indian
Journal, published at Muscogee:
Hon. Wm. A. Phillips, an ex-
member of congrets, called at Mus-
kogee on his way from the Chero-
kee council. The Colonel collected
a little bill of $6,400, being the bal
ance of $40,000 collected since the
war, as attorney's fees, supposed to
have been rendered the Cherokee
delegation, to compel, solicit or
induce the United States government
to respect its plighted faith, to keep
its promises in its treaty with its
wards. There is something rotten
in Denmark, or this would not be
thus and more also. $186,000
have been expended by the
Cherokee Nation since 1866
for a similar purpose to this.
So much hard cash filched from one
band of Indians, to prevent encroach-
ment upon their rights by the gov-
ernment that guarantees their rights,
as long as grass grows and water
runs. How much of this claimed
service was rendered the Cherokees
by a member of congress? and how
much by the ex-member is not lor us
to say; but, without condemning
Col. Phillips personally, we do con
demn the whold proceeing as an
outrage that should be investigated,
and the amount of which the Indians
have been despoiled of refunded to
them by the U. S. Government.
Both houses of Congress have ad-
journed iiiilil-Jniiuary 6th, tS8o.

Honesty is the best policy in medicine
as well as in other things. Ayer's Sar-
saparilla is a genuine preparation of that
uriequaled spring medicine and blood
purifier, decidedly superior to the poor
imitations heretofore in the market.
Trial proves it.
Ten Cent Barber Shop.
Welzer Bros*, is the only first class bar-
ber shop in the city. They have the best
equipped and most elegantl> fitted up
bath rooms in the city. They have three
chairs in operation, and solicit the pat-
ronage of the public. Give them a call,

Among the Useful Toilet Articles
We notice a much liked preparation for
the hair, possed ot' properties so remark-
able thet no one who cares to own a clean
and healthy scalp with beautiful hair
should be without. Its properties are
cleansing, invigorating and healing, and
a few applications the hair ceaees to fall.
Dandruff and humors disappear, and the
hair grows clean, soft and silky. It keeps
the head cool and comfortable and grad-
ually restores the hair if faded, to the
natural and life-like color beautiful to
look upon. It is Parker's Hair Balsam
thot has won such popular appieciation
by its many healthful and excellent qual-
ities. Sold in large bottles at only 50 cts.
aud $1.00 by all first-class druggists.
Give your defective complexion the
benefit ot Glenn's Sulphur Soap. 2; cts.;
three cakes 50 cents.
See that ,-C. N. Crittenton, Proprie-
tor,', is printed on each packet, without
which none is genuine.
Figurative.—There are fifty head* of
young hair in a bottle of "Reviviuin." Of
druggists at 50 cents.
If your hair is coming out, or turning
gray, do not murmur over a misfortune
you can so easily avert. Ayer's Hair
Vigor will remove the cause of your grief
by restoring youi hair to its natural color
and therewith your good looks and good
nature.
Mrs. Winslow's Soothing Syrup.
Rev. Sylvanus Cobb thus writes in the
Boston Chiistian Freeman:—We would
by no means recommend any kind of
medicine which we did not know to be
good—particularly for infants. But of
Mrs. Winslow's Soothing Syrup we can
speak from knowledge; in our own family
it has proved a blessing indeed, by giving
an infant, troubled with colic pains, quiet
sleep, and its parents unbioken rest at
r.ight. Most parents can appreciate these
blessings. Here is an article which works
to perfection, and which is harmless; for
the sleep which it affords the infant is
perfectly natural, and the little cherub
awalces" as "bright as a button." And
during the process of teething its value is
incalculable. We jiaye frequently heard
mothers say they would not be without it
from thejbirth of the child t|H it .had fin-
ished with the teething «'i£j(eron nlny con-
sideration whatever, Sold by all drug-
gists. 25 cents a bottle.

Prickly Ash Bitters
*And Malarifuge,
THESE BITTERS wii! prevent con
tructlng ofc
eases if properly used, by invigorating the
liver, toning the stomach, and regulating
the bowels and kidneys. It is a prepara-
tion from such vegetable extracts of
which the Prickly Ash constitutes a lead-
ing part, that enters into the regular pre-
scription practice of all medical men,
among whom Dr. Sherman is justly
classed as the successful compounder af
ter an experimental practice of 30 years,
as a complete antidote to all influences
which, if not arrested in time, terminate
in chills and fever or other malarial dis-
eases.
Though pleasant to the taste, it is not a
beverage, (as the extracts are held in so-
lution in pure Holland gin only) because
of its cathartic properties, and is therefore
an infallible remedy for habitual constipa-
tion.
HIE MALARIFUGE is a certain cure
lor chills when once contracted. It has
never failed to effect a cure where the di-
rec'ions, which accompany each bottle,
are followed.
Druggists are hereby authorized to re-
fund the money to any party purchasing
who claims a cure is not effected, provid-
ing the directions are followed and the
empty bottle returned. For sale by all
druggists 6,7 '7qdwiy
