'TPHE countenance is pale and
J[ leaden-colored, with occasional
flukhe*, or a circumscribed spot on
one or both cheeks; the eyes become
dull; the pupils dilate; an azure
semicircle runs along the lower eye-
lid ; the nose is irritated, sir-11s, and
sometimes bleeds; a swelling of the
upper lip; occasional headache,with
humming or throbbing of the ears;
an unusual secretion of saliva ; slimy

Whenever the above symptoms
are found to exist,
Dr. C. M’LANE’S VERMIFUGE
Will certainly effect a cure.
The universal success which has
attended the administration of this
preparation has been such as to war-
rant us in pledging ourselves to the

the child or adult should warrant the
supposition of worms being the

that

ment had issued orders commanding
vessels to that place.
Sherman Letter.
NO. 51.
Thursday, Aug. 19, 1S75.
The election yesterday passed oil’
very quietly. The defeat of the
amendments was a forgone conclu-
sion ; the opposition to them being
so great very few who favored them
voted, seeing the hopelessness of
their cause. Ti e opposition voted
the negroes solid against them by
telling that if they carried, a whip-
ping post would be established and a
$5 tax levied on dogs. These are
sufficient reasons to make the ne-
groes vote against anything. This
election will cost the corporation not
less than $1000, and perhaps more,
as the amendments were advertised
in all the newspapers for a month or
six weeks before the election. The
vote cast was as follows: For the
amendments, 56 ; against, 234.
The Methodist sociiihlc at the re-
sidence of Mr. Beiler, on Tuesday
night, is spoken of as one of those
grand successes that affords partici-
pants something to talk about for
months afterwards. Everybody was
there, ice cream was good and not
too expensive. Of course, being a
Methodist sociable, evei\tiling was
quite within the bounds of propriety
—no dancing, no cards, not even
croquet,—but such highly interesting
games as “Rabbit,” “Fuss wants a
Corner” and “Simon says Wig-wag,”
were indulged in without restraint
to the conscience, or anything else.
In these games 11. O. Head, Morris
Schneider and Capt Ilay seemed to
be the moving spirits. The receipts
of the evening were large, consider-
ing everything, and another sociable
will be announced shortly.
J. G. Roberson and J. \V Hearne,
went north to-day, the first to New
York, the latter to Chicago, to pre-
pare for fall tiade in their respective
businesses.
The corporation were doing a
good service yesterday by opening
up the long mud puddle extending
along the sidewalk from Fitch’s cor-
ner to the City Bank, letting off the
green water, and creating a distur-
bence among the tad-poles and "wig-
gletails.” that had enjoyed this place
so long, and also disturbing the sen-
sativc nerves of any who passed by
while the cleaning up was going on.
While they are at it, the small lake
in front of the postoffice might be
worked on with advantage to the
town.
A little son of Robert E. Shannon,
died Monday night, and was buried
to-day at 10 a. in.
Rumors are afloat of a debate be-
tween Rev. Collinsworth and a
Methodist divine here, on the subject
of Judas Iscarot’s fidelity to his
Master, one alleging that he was a
rascal always, the other that he was
once pure but fell from grace. A
challenge has been given on the sub-
ject, but I have not learned whether
or not it has been accepted.
It is also rumored that Bishop
Garnett will shortly deliver a series
of lectures here to raise money to
finish the Episcopal church.
Bob Herratt, Bob Brown and
Billy Wickett, parties connected with
the robbing of Mr. Graham, on Iron
Ore Sunday night, were lodged in
jail yesterday. Ilerratt had a broth-
er sent from here to the penitential’)
at the last criminal court for rob-
bing.

"hayseed.”
Timothy and millet seed,
Redtop and clover,
Scatter them broadcast,
Sow 'em all over.
Powdered with hayseed,
Brown locks and lair,
Cute little barley straws,
Sticking everywhere,
Hurrah for hayseed!
How it makes them stare.
Timothy and millet seed,
Redtop and clover,
Songs ol running brooks,
Lays of the plover.
Odors of hay mows,
Gold of the corn.
Hayseed will rule the world,
Sure as you are bon ;
Ring the bell for hayseed,
Toot the mellow horn !
Timothy and millet seed,
Redtop and clover,
Grangers everywhere,
All the country over;
Hark! to the wild goose
Heralding the spring,
All his song is “hayseed!’’
Hear the arches ring.
Amen, to hayseed;
Hayseed is king!
—Mrs. M. C. Clarke.
