Of Old Newspaptrs Unearthed
' By Isaac Prlndle.
Relics of a Day When Journalism Was
In Hi Infancy.
Through the courtesy of Isaac Prindle
the Courier office baa in its possession
auruber of old newspapers of aucient
.date. The oldest one of the old papers
U a copy of the Hartford, Conn., Times,
dated Monday, Januar- 13, 1829. Ad
ther is the Morning Oregonian of Aug
st 26, 1803, while still another is the
Weekly Palladium of New Haven. Conn.,
dated Saturday . morning, October 4,
1862. , . , .
One can find many things of a source
f great interest in these old relics of the
journalistic world in its early infancy.
On the first page of the Westfleld News
Letter is a speech delivered ; by . Hon.
Ueorge Asbmun on the slarery q a est ion,
delivered in the House of Representa
tives, March 27, 1850. In the Weekly
Palladium is a description ol the battle
f Antietam from a special correspond
ect, taking up more than bait the space
of the paper and containing diagrams of
Uie battle field. But the oldest, and lor
that reason, the most intereBtiniz ol
these old mustv newspapers, is a copy of
the Hartford, Conn., Cotuant, published
Monday, July 9, 13J8.- The paper con
tains twe nve-coiuinn pages and is pre
served ma ir mac o verea witn glass.
The type ia of a style not used In this
day and generation. Among other
things the paper containsjthe announce
ment of the appointment of George
Washington to Lieutenant General and
Commander-in-chief of the armies of the
United btates of America.

Some applicants for public notice are
very modest iu their approaches, only
soliciting notice aa long as they deserve
it; others are more aware of their claims
on public gratitude, and sure some are
promoted by the lery spirit of philan
thropic. The same diversified scene!
In one column a fire, In the next a suc
cessful speculation,! Here a man .cats
himself to death, there a child is starv

built, copper bottome.t, and fast sailing;
the houses are in good repair extensive

oranges; Madeira wine and-Spanish el.

short, everpthiug comes from its proper
place. Human eings,; too, seem tube
very social to many partnerships.
Sometimes indeed, we find soma little
soul, armed with a patient right, elbow
ing his way through the crowd, threat
ening "chains ami slavery" to all who
invade bis proptr sphere; but generally
men seem to have coupled themselves
together in loving fellowships. Much as
our world' Iihs been tb s.'d
by misambropes and despised by poem,
we doubt whether they would fiud in
the clouds anything half so convenient.
Why, here Is everything Tueatres aud
Circuses, rope dancers and singers, gar

sick, teeth lor the tooihlea, wigs tor the

It is indeed, iright and beautiful world;
and we pray, gentle reader, that tUu

mayst be preserved ' from the spirit of
love and poetry ; only read the newspa
pers punctually, and as punctually pay
for it, and it v, ill always appear to be
bright and beautiful. " '"

PAINE'S CELERY
COMPOUND
Does a Wondrous Work for a Lady
Who Was Almost Crazed witu
' Pain and Suffering. ; '
It is well known that terrible rheumatism,
sciatica, and neuralgia cause more helpless
ness, acute suffering, and agony, than any of
the other diseases that afflict humanity.- The
great medicinal virtues of Paine's Celery Com
pound make it the only trustworthy specific
for the cure of all forms of rheumatism and
neuralgia. Thousands of strong testimonial
letters from the most prominent people of the
land, prove that Paine's Celery Compound
has banished these terribly fatal troubles when
all other- treatment has failed.' Mrs. Mar
garet Bethel, of Brainerd, Minn., after thirty
years of agonizing tortures had a desire to end
her life, if it was the will of Heaven; she al
most prayed for the time to lay it down.
Heaven-directed, she made use of Paine's
Celery Compound, and is enjoying true life
once more. She says: - ' '
" For thirty ytars I have been a great suf
ferer from neuralgia in the head, and also
with rheumatism in the whole body. I began
taking Paine's Celery Compound and soon
found I was Much better. Before taking the
Compound, my life was such a burden that I
almost prayed to lay it down. I was bedfast
every two weeks 'With horrible pain in the
head,, back; and 'neck, until I was almost
erased. I am able to da harder work and
more of it today than for twenty-five years. I
am .really enjoying life again, thanks to
Paine's Celery Compound.' I am satisfied
that my life has been prolonged many years
by its use."
