Bai.com, Shirley Village, Mass. I had rheumatism three years, and got no relief till I took Hood’s Sarsaparilla. It has done great tilings for me. I recommend it to others.” Lewis Burbank, Biddeford, Me. Hood’s Sarsaparilla is characterized by three peculiarities 1st, the C'ttnhiuiitiun of remedial agents; 2d, the proportion; 3d, the process of securing the active medicinal qualities. The result is a medicine of unusual strength, effecting cures hitherto unknown Send for book containing additional evidenc. Hood's Sarsaparilla tones up my system, purifies my blood, sharpens my appetite, and seems to make me over.” J. l\ Thompson, Register of Deeds, Lowell, Mass. “Hood's Sarsaparilla beats all others, and is worth its weight in gold.” I.

There is talk that Mr. Vanderbilt has lost tens of million? by shrinkages in the market jalue of stocks. It is thought he will he able to stand the squeze. The New Orleans Exposition has met with a good deal of bad luck so far. Its friends, however, are hopelul that it may have better success in the future. Mr. Blaine is about to have his portrait painted at government expense, with Mr. James Archer, an Englishman, who lately arrived in this country, as the artist. Senator Pendleton says he does not think it desirable that the independents should have a controling position in the democratic councils. So say most of the democrats. The seekers for ofliee under Cleveland's administration are a numerous family, and their numbers increase rapidly as the 4th of March draws near. Every one of them feels certain of securing the position which he is aiming for. The nomination of Mr. Evarts tor Unit ed States Senator from New York, settles an unpleasant controversy in the happiest manner possible. It will unite and cement all factions in the republican party, and put it in a good fighting condition for the coming campaign in that State, in which the election of Governor will be the main issue. Mr. Evarts is respected by all republicans. He is a man of learn ing, brains and power, sound and dis criminating in judgment, a strong sup port to any cause in which he enlists.

Quite an audience assembled last night in the Representatives' Hall at the State House to listen to an address by Col. B S. Pardee rU‘commissioner for New England of the Worlds Exposition. The Secretary of State called the House to order and introduced the speaker CoL Pardee sa,d that in speaking of the whhl' r. tWa9WriltU reTlew the causes »hith led up to it. He then briefly sketched the condition of the cotton Slates "before the war. the wealthy aristocracy who led Uxo rious lives; the poor whites, more ignorant •nd debased than the staves the provincial! wu resulting trom the peculiar institution Cnder it labor was not held in honor, and greasy mechanics” was a term of reproach But the war came, and out ot in Aigencies many new ideas were created, and were fas tened upon the Southern mind In a region devoted to agriculture skilled mechanics were not numerous. They were not not needed and therefore not appreciated. But when the Northern tuark.ts were cut ofl, and the blockade ot southern ports compelled the confederates to tall back upon their own re sources. then mectianical skill and ingenuity was in demand, and those who manitested it were respected. As illustrative of what the southern exigencies were, the speaker gave an account of the establishment ot a gun factory at Columbia, S. C., and of the me’ns resorted to by Major McPhail.a blue-blooded r. F. V., to secure both workmen and ma terials. There were detailed for duty under him all gunsmiths serving in Confederate regiments. A brief trial convinced Major McPhail that he could not make Belgian rides on a large scale with such workmen. Every man of them was used to work by himself. Each had his own ideas and system and persisted in adhering to them. All thought they knew more about the trade than he d^d. At last he sent them all back to their regiments, and made requisition on the secretary ot war for a detail ot ail the dcn tiaia serving in the ranks. These were sent him. 1 hey were accustomed to the use of fine tools and machinery, and having no pre conceived notions respecting gun-making, they obeyed orders witii alacrity and soon turned cut as fine work as was made at any northern armory. Major MePoail had other difficulties to surmount. He needed Brass lor the trimmings, and could get none He eon flesatedjeopper 'turpentine stills in North Carolina, and toila fountains lined witii block tin wherever tie could find them in drug stores. When Ins first shipment of arms readied Richmond an order was sent him to ship all copper in nis poss ss.on to the war department. He selected two burned out stills, put them on a car, and wrote an urgent request to the sec retary of war to return the same immed iately. The stills never got hack but the ruaj or had no mure requisitions, and when finally compelled to abandon the armory be cause ot Sherman's adranca, lie left behind him materials to furnish brass enough for tha armory for tha next twenty years. 1'ha poor whites—"trash” as they were call, grew into full manhood during tha war. The affluent Southerner learned that any ona who stood shoulder to shoulder with him, and who took part in the line ot battle, the resistance to an assault, or in the fierce charge against tha enemy was a man. Mauhood coverted and won esteem Another tiling growing out of the war waa the respect each tula learned to entertain for bravery, and hence it became aot only possi ble but a tact that the soldiers of the Units and rebel aruiiea respected each ether. “Go where you will at tiie South, said tbe speak er, “and it you will make yourself known as among tti ise woo wore ttie blue, it will be best passp .ri y u esu nave to the homes and hearts oi lliosv against a ho you fought.” The speaker theu t.ld how the Atlanta Exposition of Ids I—under the directioa of a son of Maine, Hon. H 1. Kimball, had revo lutiom/ed ail Southern industries and pre pared the way for that World's Exposition that is now open at New Orleans. He spoke also of tiie National Colton I’lanters Asso ciation ot America, giving tiie history ot ils beginning and grins in, and of tiie initiative part it had taken in the present exposition. He then told ol tile grand subscription ot bait a million dollars by the merchants of New Orleans, of the load of a million by tiie ns tioiial government, and tiiat Maine and all tiie other States and Territories (Utah alone excepted) wera represented tiicre because tiie management had determined that every part ol these United States should display it natural resources and the industries ot its people, and so Maine and all the others had received goOlHi each from that fund It de pends upon this legislature to say whether Commissioner Ham shall stay there at iiis own cost, defraying the expenses of his con stituents from his own private means, or whether the State shall help him out. “I need but make the statement to this legis lature.'' said the speaker. Finally, Col. Car der referred to tiie peculiar geographical sit uation ot New Orleans. It it the gateway of the United States to Mexico and the repub lics of Central America. Leaving out tiie first, with which we now have railway con nections, and working only the countries on the southern tide of the Mexican Gulf we tee that they are within short lines of water communication with New Orleans. All of them have made larga appropriations ta tnak# their diapiapa there. They have manifested tneir anxiety to establish intimate communications with us. They buy annually from European nations *400.000.000 of man ufactured goods. England, France aud Ger many get this trade. It is a curious fact that most of the American goods sold there are bought by English traders, make the voyage from here to Liverpool or London, aud 'lien are transshipped from one of those cities to the port of destination, while all the dve stalls and other products wc purchase from these countries take the same rounda bout route, we paying to the liritish traders a profit on both exports and imports. 1 he Exposition affords an opportunity to stop all that, and to secure the benefits ot this com merce. Let it once he fully established, what would he the result? Every V w Log anil industrv would be be benefited, but es pecially the ship building l’ut us into close commercial relations with Central American liepublics, and the vast increase in the de mand for coasters would he felt all along the Maine shore. Hut there is one consideration over-ruling all others. The greatest outcome of the At lanta exposition, was that it brought men of all parts of the Union into intimate and friendly relation, enabling them to under stand each other On the larger stage of the World's Exposition this will bo accomplished on a grander scale. In the war, we of the North, fought for national unity, while we hoped and prayed for national fraternity. I'hit, the World's Exposition will give as. and with its close will come to one end al. those misunderstandings between the people that have made division* in the past, and from henceforth we ahall be one in heart, in purpose, throughout the republic At the conclusion of the address, the sp*»k er was heartily applauded and the audience dispersed.

JOHNSON CO., boston, Mass. octtfd&wly_ betimes the next morning to the station, to catch the first train for Milan. It was a Tuesday evening when his decision was made. On Tuesday evening Miss Ken yon was “at home” to her friends; it oc cured to Courtney that it would be impos sible to go away without calling at “Casa Kenyon” to say good b;,e. He looked at his watch there was plenty of time. So he donned his little-worn evening suit— somewhat antiquated incut—and set out on toot. Gondolas were not to his liking; wherever in Venice he could walk he chose to walk, in energetic British fashion. Courtney crossed the Grand Canal in a ferry, in company with a fat priest and two peasant women, and after making his way down a dimly lighted calle or two, and crossing a small campt with an un pretending cafe and a sombre old church, arrived at the back door of the Kenyons’ palace. To his “Ein cnsaln signorina?” Pietro and Luigi responded with bows and smiles, and they handed him on to Marie, who ushered him up the broad staircase and through a long stone corridor, taste fully ornamented with plants, flowers and statues, and with masses of flowering thistles from the Lido. Courtney entered a huge, lofty room, almost chilling in the magtiificance of its dimensions. The walls were covered with portraits of old Vene tians. in scarlet robes of senatorial dignity. Guests of many nationalities—over which English predominated—were dispersed about the room. The first person whom Courtney saw. as he steered his way to the hostess, was young Edwardes, who was talking to a pretty girl in an ultra fashionable dress of dull green Courtney addressed her in passing, as Miss Stuart. “Mr. Courtney, at last! I thought that you had quite forgotten us,” said a sweet voice; a little hand was stretched out to Courtney, and a pair of soft gray eyes looked at him reproachfully. “Forgotten you The power of pro testation seemed to have left Courtney; he could only echo the words vacantly their very sound seemed to him prepos terous. Miss Kenyon—for it was she who had spoken— was a lady whose claims to beauty, spite of their unquestioning ac ceptance by Courtney, would not be uni versally admitted. In Venice, as else where, her father’s ward, Lillian Stuart, a vivacious maiden with dark hair, bright black eyes, and a brilliant color, was ac credited, with a better title than her own, to general admiration. Mary’s features were regular, her smooth brown hair was soft and luxuriant, and her grey eyes were full of thought and feeling, but she was small and pale, and a certain class of critics pronounced her devoid of “style;” certainly she was devoid of the art of self assertion. The belter she was known the more generally she was admired; her nature was retiring, and on first acquaint ance she seemed shy and quiet, sometimes a trifle awkward. (To be continued.) Mrs Daniel Weidner, New Baden, Texas, was cured of severe Neuralgia by St. Jacobs Oil, the great pain-cure. It is a dangerous thing to neglect a cough cr cold, or any difficulty of the throat or lungs. Lose not a moment in getting a bottle of John son’s Anodyne Liniment. You can relv upon it to cure you. It is also a sure preventive of diphtheria. We advise every farmer or stock raiser to invest in Sheridan’s Cavalry Condition Pow ders and feed them out to their herds this winter.
