A LECTURE ON MAN. What a piece of work it man' how noble in reason’ how infinite in faculties' in form and moving how ezprett and admirable' in action ho* like an angel! in apprehension how like a god! the beauty of the world! the paragon of animals:—S IfA KESPEAKE. How beautiful are the above lines uttered by the world’s great est mind How infinite the scope of man’s power if his faculties are well preserved. Nothing, short of creation, is to him impossible. Our soul is lost in admiration when we contemplate the possibilities of this greatest exhibition of Infinite Power. Yet what is this “quint essence of dust when blasted by disease—his noble functions per verted or destroyed As all men are born free and equal,” as far as moral rights are concerned, so likewise we hold they should be born physically, but as long as children must suffer for the sins of their parents this can not be. That the human race has deteriorated physically is a conced ed question. To restore it is an impossibility, as long as people persist in immorality and indul gences which are in disregard of nature’s laws. The most we can do then is to ameliorate this con dition, and cure disease in indi viduals. To this end we offer to the pub lic, remedies which have done more good—accomplished better results in overthrowing disease than any others which have been discovered up the to present time, viz DU. FLOWER’S LIVER AND STOMACH SANATIVE, AND NERVE FILLS. The former is an infallible remedy for all affections of tlie Liver and Stomach, and is besides an invaluable general tonic. The latter is a reliable cure for all nervous diseases and conditions, such as Hysteria, Sleeplessness, Nervous Prostration, Depression caused by overwork, etc. These remedies are extensively prescribed by physicians, (a recom mendation which does not obtain with any other proprietary article,) and command at the hands of the druggists in New England a larger sale than any other medicine.

Resignation of Civil Service Commis sioner Thoman—Cleveland’s Reply— Doings in Court. WASHINUTON, Oct 26. Civil Service Commissioner Thoman lias tendered his resignation and it haa been accepted by President Cleveland to take effect November first. The resignation was tendered and accepted by means of the fol lowing correpondence: Washington. Oct. 20 Sir—Respectfully referring to the conver sation had With you March 10th, in which 1 expressed a wish to be relieved of my duties as a member of the United States civil ser vice commission and also to the apparent fact that it was not then your pleasure to con sider my request, I now have the honor to tender, formerly, my resignation and ear nestly beg an early consideration of the tame and its acceptance. While thus asking for a release from so honorable a trust l desire to record my gratification over the proved prac ticability and remidial effectiveness of the retorm procedure. Tried veterans in polit ical warfare view with amazement the taeile through radical departure trorn the taniiliar methods ot the spoils system of distributing petronage, strenuous and sincere argument, and also the deliberate perversion that mark the opposition of|the different groups of an tagonists and yet it must he concluded that a majority of the political leaders in either party is in accord with the Pendleton law. If its orignal enactment and emphatic endorse ment hv a subsequent Congress were honest legislative expressions and not coercion of moral cowardness hy popular sentiment, no partisan legerdermain in the great task of administrative reform which you have under taken in accordance with personal and party pledges, the people will give you aid. It has been my pleasure within the last two months to viait quite a number of the states and ter ritories of this Union and it was my good for tune to meet many of their citizens. It is gratifying to know that the people confide in the equivocal intention of the president to sustain merit system in civil service. They had condemned the evils of former methods. Long experience had made their knowledge accurate. I believe that the fundamental principle of civil service reform is character istic of American thought. In the initial stages of this reform there was a response throughout the Nation. Political contests assumed a new tone; old-time methods of corruption were discouraged ami bosaiam was grappled with fresh vigor. If vicious ele ments seek obtrusion into elections the chances ot their success has been deserved. Reform spirit is miltant and advances toward a complete success. Corruption by official patronage has been removed with imparting purer life to official circles. The power of the private purse to purchase political honors will be less dangerous. The public appre ciation of the fact that this reform does not trench upon sturdy partisanship came late. It was sedately maintained that civil service was to he composed of men who should ab jure certain rights of citizenship with grad ual but inevitalde refutation of this false view. The outlines of retorm at last stood forth in clearness Your obedient servant, 1,Kitov I). Thoman. Executive Mansion, t Washinuton, Oct. 24th, 1885. Hon. Leroy Thoman, Civil Service Com missioner. Dear Sir:—I have received your letter tendering your resignation as a member of the civil service commissioner, which is in furtherance of the inclination expressed bv you very soon after my inauguration as President. The resignation thus hereby tendered if accepted, to take effect on the first day of November next. I congratulate you upon the fact that in the office you re linguiah you have been able by sincere and earnest work and bv steady devotion to the cause which you have had in charge ta do so much in the interest of the government and improve the political methods. Yours sincerely, Grover Cleveland. The U. S. supreme court, Monday, render ed its decision in the cotton case of E. E. Lamar of Georgia, against Hugh McCulloch ex-secretary of the treasury. The suit was brought in '711 in the circuit court of the II. S. for the southern district of New York to recover moneys paid into the treasury as the proceeds of the sale of several hundred bales of captured or abandoned cotton. It was de cided for the defendant on the ground that the law gives to the court of claims exclusive jurisdiction in the class of cases to which this one belongs. The supreme court affirms the decision of the circuit court. The court of claims which adjourned June 1st, reassembled Monday morning and re sumed the consideration of the case of the Choctaw nation against the United States,the suit involving large tracts of land in the In dian Territory.

Signor Del Puente Say* His Agent Dig Not Rob Hint ot all His Wealth. N*w Yobk, Oct. 26. The Times says that operatic circles hare been thrown into a wild state of excitemant over the rumored lost by the popular ban lone, Signor Del Puente, of all hi. accumu lated savings through the rascality of a friend whom he had made hit financial agent and who, when detection was no longer avoida ble, put an end to hia life bv blowing hia brains out. The artist was found yesterday at hit home on Fifth avenue and told the the storv of his loss. He said: "It i* true 1 have sutlered a lots, but nothing like as much as it rumored. The amount will not exceed forty thousand francs and there will be nothing recovered. The man through whom I sutlered was my friend. Louis Bour geois, of Boston, to whom I entrusted the care of tome of my American investment*. The securities were not put in my name and 1 never knew even the number on the cer tificates. My friend represented to me that by using them for our joint benefit we could make our fortune and 1 knew that he waa speculating. About tour months ago I thought 1 would get iny stocks from him and wrote to him to forward them to me He re plied that he could not and that he would explain w hen I reached America Just be fore I left Italy I received a telegram from Boston that Bourgeois had committed suicide. As soon as I landed on Friday 1 was informed that everything belonging to me in his hands had gone and there waa not even a record of how or where. That is all there is in the story and I am not ruined by any meant. It everything had been swept away I fancy my voice it good tor some years yet and with that 1 shall go to work and make up what I have loat. ^_______ FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. v York 'Hlofk Market.

The National Prison Congress has just closed its session in Detroit. These pour parlers on prison reform accomplish, at least, one definite good. They show the general public how little has been done in the matter. Ten years ago the average American was perfectly satisfied that the institutions of the United States (among which he included her educational and prison systems) were far ahead of those of any other country. The Exposition in 187li opened his eyes to the defects in our public school methods whcncompared with these of nations whom he regarded as lit tle more than half-civilized, and the Prison Reform International Convocations dis covered to hint the fact that countries which ho vaguely supposed were given up to anarchy, like Ireland, possessed far more enlightened systems for the punish ment and reform of their criminal classes than any used among us. In fact, nothing better than these systems has yet been discovered. All the subsequent reforms proposed or tried in the treatment of adult criminals or in reformatory schools for juvenile offenders are modifications in the first case of the method of Sir Walter Crofton at Dusk, and in the second of M. Demetz at Mettray. Uen. (Irunt and Andrew •Johnson. Il is a somewhat strange story tliat Mr Chauncey M. Depew tells concerning the relations existing between General Grant ami Andrew Johnson, during the former part of the administration of the latter, hut it will easily he credited by those who hare carefully •tn lied the characters and careers of ttiese two men. The attitude of Johnson when he first succeeded to power in 1X115 is yet fresh in the minds of many ot our readers. Trea son was to he made odious and the chief rebels were to be hsnged. Mr Depew re peats the story as he had it from Gen. (tram's own lips. Johnson insisted that the federal courts in Virginia should find indictments against all the leading memhera of the eon fedrncy, and that the rebel officers who had left the regular army to join the rebellion •hould he summarily dealt with by court martial According to Mr. Depew the con federate leaders appealed to Grant to protect them on the parole he had given, lie saw Johnson on the subject, onlv to be informed that the President was. by the constitution, commander-in chief of the army, and that anything done by the commanding general on the field was done subject to his approval or rejection, and he rejectid the terms. Gen eral Grant urged that the rebels had surren dered on these conditions, disbanded their organizations, submitted universally to the situation, and were carrying out in good faith their part of the agreement; and every consideration of both honor and expediency demanded equal good faith on tne part of the government. The other course would have led to endless guerilla warfare, conducted in a country- admirably adapted for it, by des perate and hopeless tuen. Johnson obstinate ly adhered to Ids view and assumed the au thority of commander, when General Grant flatly told him that if there were to be any court-marttals one must be called to try Gen eral Grant first: that he would by every means in his power protect his parole and appeal to Congress and the country. Johnson wss frightened and halted. Then came a sud den and most remarkable change on his part. In a few months he sent for Gen. Grant again He said the radical measures of Congress were revolutionary The seceded Slates had all the right* and should possess all the powers they had before the war. He had perfected a scheme to accomplish the result, and with General Grant's assistance, its success was assured. He would by proclamation direct the rebel titates to send to Washington their full quota of Senators and Representatives. He had assurances from enough members from the North, who, united with them.would make a quorum of one House, at least.if not both. The Congress thus formed he wouid recognize and reinstate at the Capitol. If the other Northern members did not choose to join, they would be a powerless rump, meeting in some hail. But he had again mis taken hi* man; General Grant would not he used, and w hen the President tried to send him out of the country to Ml» FQ3, $49, 933. NOt ’.SSSL*** upwarili.

The job Printing K«t*bli*hmf the owners, several of whom reside in this city, if a bargain is concluded of which tnere is every prospect, the new corporation will make generous improvements upon the mill, add sonic new machinery and operate it to its fullest capacity. One of the prospective new owners will probably manage the mill, making his residence in Keadfield. The matter of the seizure of the Togus beer at Portland and the claiming of it last week hv the officers of the National Military Home, is receiving considerable attention from the legal fraternity and others in this section. The main question at issue is that °f the jurisdiction of the State courts over liquor transported through State territory, in* tended for sale on United States grounds. If the State has such jurisdiction then the seiz ure was rightfully made; otherwise the beer must be released. In 1871 Section ,*>;W1 of the Revised Statutes of ihe United States was passed adopting the Maine prohibition law, and Judge Webb held at Bath that this became a law of the United States tor ail places w ithin the State, ceded to and under the jurisdiction of the General Government, and that the State had no juris diction on such lands. This being the case, then the United States holds jurisdic tion over its own territory, and au able law yer of this city thinks that the State has na right to interfere with beer or liquor which is being transported within its own bounda ries, as in the case of the Togus beer, to be sold on United States ground. But it was claimed by the counsel of the State at Port land that the beer not having reached the grounds of the Home, aud being found in Cumberland county, kept and deposited with intent that it should he sold in violation of law in this State, that it was liable to seiz ur®, as contraband goods, and should be de clared forfeited to the city of Portland. t ty Personals.

The play has been partially* reconstructed and re written since its former production here,some of the old scenes having been dropped and new ones introduced. Last night’s cast, con tained hut few names that appeared on the pro gramme last spring, but the new company is on the whole stronger than its predecessor Master Harry Kelley sustained the title role with diabolical spirit and managed to keep all on the stage in make-believe hot water, while he kept the audience in unmistakably genu ine good humor at all times.

If sleep comes not, we die; if we eat not. we die; therefore it is essential to health and comfort that both be furhished in sufficient quantities and at regular intervals. The writer has known an excellent mother who brought up her family wisely and well in every other way, except in regard to these two points. To the early breakfast at six o’clock, both summer and winter, the children must come, or go without; and the very fact that always going to bed early, and then were inclined to sleep longer in the morn ing, shows it was needed, and they should have been allowed to awaken of them selves. Then, too, the older children, coming home hungry Irom school and finding the dinner distasteful (salt fish, perhaps,)— dinner that must lie eaten or have noth ing. “It was good, wholesome food, good enough for anybody.” therelore the logic was, “You must eat it.” and so the child, nibbling the distasteful food and finishing on the fighter dessert, leaves the table un satisfied and really unfed, tor, when the shar|»e!ied appetite is met by agreeable food, the pleasure of eating causes the saliva to flow readily and mixing with the food is made ready for the stomach’s work ol digestion. Much ot the discom forts and ills of later years come from the utter ignorance or disregard for these truths and children should be taught, not by strick rules in regard to it, but by pleasing conversation in the family, that sleep and eating are God-given blessings. Dot to be abused.—Good Housekeeping. All About the House. It is a good plan to fill the salt-cellar at the close of a meal, instead of waiting un til getting ready tor the next. A brick or square stone neatly covered with carpeting makes a serviceable weight tor holding a door wholly or part way open. Always cover the hair while sweeping A sweeping cap is easily made, but if there be no leisure time for that, a towel may be made to do duty. Mixing-spoons and stove-cover lifters with large, wooden handles are much more convenient than those made entirely of one material; the handles do not heat so quickly. When boiled beets are taken from the pot, cold water should be poured over them, and immediately turned off—this is in order that the skins may be removed more readily. Tapestry rugs mav be brightened in the following manner. Shake them thorough ly then brush them lightly with a small rorn-broom dipped in water containing a little ammonia. Always provide a Turkish towel or one of coarse crash for the guest chamber: also writing materials, as one of the first duties of a visitor is the writing of and sending home friends tidings of journey and safe arrival. If the small kerosine ran from which tiie lamps are filled be not provided with a tin cap. a small cork can be used for the purpose. Always remember to take the cover from the top of the can, as well as from the spout before using it. Do not let dust.sweepings, rags.parings, orange-peel, nut-shells, etc., accumulate in the bottom of the kitchen wood-box. The box should be emptied once a week. Make a rule that nothing but wood shall be put in the box. and the task of clear ing will be easier. If it be desired that the color ot un bleached stockings be retained, great care should be taken in the washing; no soap should be rubbed on them,and they should never he boiled. The suds should be only warm, the rinsing water of the same tem perature containing some salt, and the ar ticles dried in the shade. Practical Keciites. Caramel Sauce.—Put one cupful of sugar in a small frying-pan, ami stir on the fire until a dark brown, if you like a strong caramel flavor.or till a light brown if you like a delicate flavor. Add a cup ful of boiling water and simmer fifteen minutes Set away to cool. Potato Pancakes.—These make an excellent supper dish. Grate a dozen medium-sized peeled potatoes. Add the yolks of three eggs,a heaping tablespoon ful of Hour, with a large teaspoonlul of salt, and lastly the whites of three eggs beaten stiff, and thoroughly incorporated with the potatoes. Fry the cakes in but ter and lard (equal parts) until they are brown. Hick Cream.—To a pint of new milk, add a quarter ot a pound of ground rice, a lump of butter the size ot a walnut, a lit tle lemon peel, and a tablespoonful of powdered sugar, lloil them together for five minutes; then add half an ounce of isinglass, which has been dissolved, and let the mixture cool. When cool, add half a pint of good cream whisked to a frost, stir all together well, and set on ice. When used, put any favorite preserve or canned fruit around it. Apple Sacce.—Pare and core some sour apples; remove the cores without cutting the apples into pieces. Make a svrup of sugar and a very little water; put the apples into this, and cook them until you can pierce them easily with a broom splint; then take them out of the syrup with a spoon, or with something that will not break or cut them. Let the syrup boil until it is quite thick; davor it delicately with vanilla, and pour over the apples. Lemon Cookies —One pound of flour, or e-iough for stiff dough, one-quarter pound ot butter, one pound of powdered sugar, juice of two lemons, grated peel of one. three eggs, whipped very light. Stir butter, sugar, lemon juice and peel to a light cream. Beat at least five minutes before adding the yolks of the eggs. Whip them in thoroughly, put in the whites, lastly the flour. Roll out about an eighth of an inch in thickness, and cut in to round cakes. Bake quickly. Cleaning Powder for Windows. A good cleaning powder for windows, which leaves no dirt in the joints, is pre pared by moistening calcined magnesia with pare benzine so that a mass is formed sufficiently moist to let z drop form when pressed. The mixture has to be preserved in glass bottles with ground stoppers, in order to retain the easily volatile benzine. A little of the mixture is placed on a wad of cotton and applied to the glass plate. It may also be used for cleaning mirrors. Washing and Cooking School. A three-story building is now approach ing completion on the grounds of the Cen tral Tennesse College that will add a new department to that popular institution. It is to be used as a school of lauadrying and cooking, in which competent teachers will instruct the girls of the school in the highest art and best methods in these two domestic acquirements. This will be the first school of the kind in the south.— Nashville (Tenn.) American. Sick Headache This complaint is the result of eating too much and exercising too little. Nine times in ten the cause is in the fact that the stomach was not able to digest the food last introduced into it, either from its having been unsuitable or excessive in quantity. A diet of bread and butter, with rine fruit or berries, with moderate and continuous exercise in the open air sufficient to keep up a gentle respiration, would cure almost every case in a short time. Two tablespoontuls of pow dered charcoal in a halt-glass of water and drank often gives instant relief. Sick headache with some persons comes on at regular intervals, and is the signal of distress which the stomach puts out to inform us that there is an over-alkaline condition of its fluids; that it needs a nat ural acid to restore the battery to its nor mal working condition. When the first symptoms of headache appear take a ta blespoonful ol lemon juice clear fifteen minutes before each meal, and the same dose at bedtime. Follow this up until all symptoms are passed,taking no other rem edies, and you will soon be able to go free from this unwelcome nuisance. Many will object to this because the remedy is too simple; but tnauy cures have been ef tected in this way. FOR SALE. Axe and Edge Tool Factory, GARDINER, MAINE.
