Small-Pox. Although this State has
Itcen alllicted with small-pox for some
months past, this city, until last week, has
been free from the te T ilde disease. For
some time past a little child of a German
family, living in the rear of Cordon's fur
niture shop, has been sick with what they
thought was chicken pox. Last Friday
lr. Norris was called upon to make an
examination, and proiio'umvd it small
pox. The city council immediately order
ed the yellov Hag to he displayed and a
watchman has been guarding ihe house
to keep any ot the exposed persons from
leaving the building. A Mr. Carr, of O.-.-wego,
has been employed as nurse, and
tho family have every attention possible
under the circumstances. The city lathers
have been untiring in their ell'oVts to se
cure a building outside of the city for a
pest house, but have failed to lind fa suit
able one. R is supposed that the disease
was contracted while this family were
visiting another lamily living near Bridg
Mrt, who had the small-pox. While wo
do not anticipate tiiat the disease will
spread, it would be well for all to avail
themselves of every precaution against
contracting it, by vaccinating, dieting, etc.
Dr. Norris in. onus us that the child is get
ting along nicely, and that the rust of the
family have no symptoms as yet.
Bad Boys. Our attention has bcon call
ed a great many times of late to the
crowds of young boys who gather on the
strett corners, night after night, when
they should be at home, plotting what
mischief they shall get at next. And as a
result of parents allowing their boys to
be running loose around the streets at
night our city has the reputation of
having the worst boy a in the State. Every
day some one complains of the "doings"
of "those young we had almost said hood
lums boys; they disturb church meet
ings, rock the inoffensive Celestial, tear
down signs, commit nuisances, and what
not. One of the last feats performed by
some one of them was to shoot a valuable
horse, belonging to Mr. Babcock, with a
lead"sIiooter," destroying one of his eyes.
It is needless for us to give a moral lecture
on this subject, for parents well jknow tho
consequences of allowing the boys to run
loose 111 this manner. Keep theni at home
studying their school lessons or any
thing useful.
Baptist S. S. Convention. Pursuant
to call the convention convened in the
Baptist church last Tuesday evening. The
opening addressof welcome wasdelivered

Mount Pleasaiit.
Since tho last there 'lias been several
pleasant surprise parties in this neighlor
bood, and we have heard -several inquir
ing as to whom of our members have been
inclined to noach of our ir.; 110-u ill I IiIj

alter. We have not yet got our road cross
laid, or the lamp pnsts up to the citv lim
its ; nevertheless, we have had several
surprise parties, which were highly appre
ciated by all who participated.
The lirst surprised was Capt. J. T. Ap
pcrson.then followed the parties at Messrs.
Williams & Lawton's, Mr. Warner's, and
then came the dancing party at Mr. Win.
Partlow's, w herein Mr. and'Mrs. Partlow
are entitled to the credit of being warm
and hospitable host and hostess! and of
making all present comfortable and hap
py. The sumptuous supper set for the
occasion quite bailies description, but all
will acknowledge that in providing the
good things of this life, Mr. P. will carry
oil the palm.
Among the young ladies present, it was
quite dillieult to determine who was belle
of the evening, but all present will admit
that Mr. Newell was the attraction with
several ot the young ladies.. Doubtless
this can be accounted for by the Entkr
I'RIse announcing a new house and fur
niture not long ago.
Judge N. W. Randall has been engaged
and is now teaching a term of school at

ground of the M. E. Church. They have

congregation. The grounds at the present
time preseut a deserted appearance, but in

Important if True. "I am willing to
risk my reputation as a public man," wrote
I'M ward Ilines to tho Liverpool Mercury,
"if the worst case of small-pox cannot be
cured in three days, simply by the use of
cream tartar. One ounce of cream tartar
dissolved in a pint of water, drank at in
tervals, when cold, is a never-failing rem
edy. It has cured thousands, never leaves
a mark, never causes blindness, and avoids
tedious lingering."
Hops. Oregon ami Washington Terri
tory hops are reported to bo inferior to
the California hops on account of not be
ing properly cured and packed and being
spoiled in transit. Culti vat orsin this vicii'.
ity will do well to pay a little more inten

best (.11 the cost, and we should be careful
to retain this prestige.

Happy Influence of a Great Spccillc.
For the preservation or recovery of health
and strength, the diet should be wholesome
and nutrit ious. When it happenithat the ali
mentary proc:'ss"s are disturbed by improper
or half masticated food, the best remedy for
evel results of abusing the digestive organs is
Ilostetter's Stomach Bitters, most agreaable,
prompt and gent le remedy for dyspeosia.and
for the bilious and evacuativo irregularities
which result from it. 'rho liver and bowls, in
common with the stomach, experience its
beneficent influences. The refuse of the sys
tem is carried off through its natural outlet.a
healthy tlnw and secretion ot tiie bile is pro
moted, and a powerful impetus is given to
assimilation in consequence of its use. It
healthfully stimulates the bladder ariu kid
neys when they are inactive, and by its totiic
and regulating action fortilies the system
against malaria.
A Itfiiiai'ltable Cure.
West Town-send, Vt., May 12, 1SG0.
Messiw, S. W. Kowi.e 4 Sons:
Gentlemen. Several years since I took a
severe cold, which settled on my lungs, when
it remained without relaxation. I was in
Massachusetts, and growing worse and be
coming unable to attend to mv business I re
turned home and commenced searching in
earnest for some medicine which would re
store my lost healt h. J consulted physicians,
I tried many remedies, but obtained no help,
but daily grew worse. I had a terrible cough,
and raised a good deal of blood. I had pro
fuse night sweats, and severe pain in my
side. I continued in this state for months,
and became so week that it was with grat
dillieult y I could walk, when I was advised to
try WisT.vit's Balsam ok Wild 'hurry, and
to my great joy I soon found that thisremedy
has arressfed the disease. I continued to use
the Balsam to the extent of tive bottles, and
have Mnc experienced no difficulty of the
lungs. ! believe the Balsam saved" my life,
and I shall ever hold it in estimation.
Yours truly, Lewis 1'iielps.

pouring melted Iron into a flask that was
damp and wet, caused an explosion. Tho
melted iron was thrown around and on him
In a pertect sbTwer, and he was burned
