Jackson, the Re publican can Ji date fjr .S:ate Treasurer, was born on a farm near Apollo, Pa., September 2 tth, 1S:1 J. He was reared at his birthplace, and at tbe age of sixteen entered the Jacksonville Academy, at Jacksonville, Indiana County, IV, but be fore completing LU course, the death of his father compelled him to leave school aud abandon bis contemplated liberal academical education. At a' very early age Colonel Jackson displayed an active interest ia military aifairs, and when ouly thirteen he was enrolled as a drummer boy in a company of tbe State Mliitia, eviucing in child hood those talents which were afterwards of incalculable value to hisCouatry in the hour of her sore distress. For eiii cieut servics he was promoted, step by step, until he obtained a Captain's com mission, aud when the dark clouds of re bellion broke in their traitorous wrath Captain Jackson was one of the first to profTer his services in, the great struggle to maintain one tUg and a united coun try. He recruited Company G, or tbe Apollo Independent Blues, of the Elev enth Pennsylvania Reserves and was commissioned its Captain when it was mustered into service. His signal abili ty as a sjldier could not lon remain un noticed. On July 2nd, liol, he was made Major of his Fegiment ; on October 2sth, he was promoted to the otfice of Lieutenant Colonel, and on April 10;h, 1mI2, hardly a yeiir after he had donned the blue, he received trie sword and commission of a Colonel. The talents of the man were so marked, his character and bearing so distinguished, that ad vancement in tbe service was as steady and natural as the flow of the irresistable tide. At the head of a brave Regiment he prove himself a gallant oiiicer, and through the whole cf his three years' service was a conspicuous figure in all the campaigns in which his Regimeut was summoned to duty. At the battle of Gaines' Mill, Second Ball Ran, South, Mountain, Antietam, Fredericksburg, Gettysburg, Wildernes-', Spottsylvama Court House, and Betbesda Church, Col one! Jackson and his Regiment showed the fighting worth of Pennsylvania blood, rendering particularly distinguished ser vice at South Mountain, Fredericksburg, Gettjsbur aud the Wilderness. At Spottsylvania he commanded his Brigide and so well and ably did he bear himself in this battle that he was breveted a Brigadier General fjr his gallant conduct. But it was at Gettysburg that Colonel Jackson so eminently di.-p.ayed his keen ness of judgment and powers of com mand. On the second day's fight his R 'gimtnt, juut arrived on the battleSed, lay in the front on the elops of Little Round Top, overlooking that terrible Valley of Death from which the Third Corps had been diiven back. The support-; sent to the relief of the Third were fearfully bioken, the enemy, flushed m ilh their success, was steadily advancing with a terrible and resolute purpose to carry the bi'.L Moments, then, were as vital as hours, there was no time to await orders from superior?, and Colonel Jack son, quick to see and realise the danger cf deiay, on his own responsibility ordered his Regiment forward, and was at once fallowed by the commands in hia rear. Ijwn the slope they charged, and hurl ing themselves like thunderbolts, on the columns cf the advancing enemy, they fought them foot by foot back acroM the Valley of Death, regaining the entire fk-l-J se nearly and irretrievably losL At tbe battle of the Wilderness he asain displayed his signalability to com mand and his ready power to meet an emergency, however trying. While com manding both his own and the Second Regiment, he suddenly found himielf cut off from his Division by a strong force ofthe enemy. Thus isolated from the L'nion forces and surrounded by a con fident foe, the citation presented but one of two alternatives death or sur render! Bat Colonel Jackson had never learned bow to surrender ; the chance of cutticg his way through the enemy's lines, desperate though it was, was promptly and bravely accepted, and at the head of his troops with an nnequal el valor, they brcke tbroneh tbe rebel forces, and by a circuitous route reached the Union front, where, for several hours they had been given np as lost. 1 Hiring three years of active hard ser vice, Colonel Jackson won the confidence and respect of his superiors and the es teem and admiration of all within hia command, and when mastered oat he re turned to his borne and the quiet pur suits of a business life. To keep wanner and more vivid the memories of hia sol ESTAti r,7 S hi KID 1837. dier life, its comradeships and past dang ers, Colonel Jackson allied himself with Whitworth Post No. S3 G. A. R , of Apol lo ; Encampment No. 1, U. V. L., Pitts burgh, and the Pennsylvania Command ery ofthe Loyal L'-giou. For some time after the close of the war be was engaged in the oil business in Venango County, bat in lUiha returned to his native County of Armstrong and was in the s line year elected to the State L--gia!ature and re-elected in the following year. In this position, as in every other that Col oael Jackson 1ms filled, both military aid civil, he so won the confidence of those whom he served that, four years later, he was elocted to represent the 4 1st Senatorial district, composed ofthe Coun t'esof Armstrong and Butler, in the. Slate Senate. At thecloee of his term ofollice he was again honored by the offer of a re-nomination, which he felt compelled to decline. In 1S71 he was instrumental in organi zing the Apollo Savings Bank, of which he filled the responsible position as cash ier nntil April, HS2, when President Ar thur appointed him Collector of Internal Revenue for the 2:lrd district. He as sumed the duties of thisotliceon July 1, 1SS2, serving until July 1, lS-vi, when the first Cleveland administration came into ower. In Sjp'.ember of the same year he was elected President of the Apollo Savings Bank, which place be has filled op to tbe present time. In the many positions of gTave respon sibility and trust to which Col nel Jack son has een calleJ, he proved himself worthy of the confilence imposed in him. Asa soldier, he was obedient and brave; asan otlicer, gallant aud fearless; as a legislator, conscientious and wixe. His private life is without spot or blemish. Those who know biaa best, his friends and neighbors, all speak of his aiTability, his kiff Jaess, his generosity and his man-linc-M. He is a type of manhood in which the best American citizenship is exem plitied, and in selecting him as a candi date for tje highly responsible position of State Treasurer, the Republican party has made a w ise and happy choice. To its duties he will bring a ripe experience, a mature wisdoin and a moral firmness that will insure their faithful perfor mance, free from all critism, and we be speak for him from a united party a hear'y and generous support. HON. D. NEWLIN FELL, Republican Candidate for Judge of the Supreme Court. Hon. David Newlio Fell, of Philadel phia, the candidate of the Republican pirty for Judge of th Supreme Court of Pennsylvania, was born November 4:h, 1S40, in Buckingham, Bucks county, Pennsylvania, where his anc?stora set tled in 1704. He belong to the sixth generation of the family, members of wb;cb still live there. Ha was educated under the direction i,f his father, Joseph Fell, who was a distinguished teacher and superintendent of the schools of the county, and who, for fifty years, was ac tively connected with and did much to a lvanee the educational interest of the Slate. It was wish pardonable pride and jealous care that he assisted and guided his sin in laying the foundation for and building up a broad and deep mental and moral education. Upon the com pletion of his stalies, Juig-9 Fell was graduated at the State NjroiAl School at 5Lilersville, Pennsylvania, in the class of '02. At that lima the Union artnlej were suffering terrible losses in the Peninsula and other disastrous campaigns, and the clouls which sj often bung dark and threatening during those three years of a ful strife, were lowering from dy to day. The holiday aspect ofthe war had long since passed. Tne mmy defeats which had overtaken ths Uuion arms gnve fair warning to tbose about to en list that tbe war was a stern and awful reality. As sjldiers they would be call ed npon to endure hardship and sutler privation in all its forms and possibly meet death face to fac?. Taeir mission was not merely to march g.iily to and fro, out of the reach of barm, and returning after a short enlistment, to receive the praise and honors ahowered upon some of those who bad pprung to their coun try 's defense. It was at this time, with the wounded constantly returning, and with mourning on every side for those who would return no more, that Judge Fell, in the strength of his early manhood, started f r the front. With a fail realization of the brilliant prospects of succeis which his e luxation and talents would secure for him at home, he en'L-ted in Company E, 122J Regiment, Pennsylvania Volunteers. This tommand was recruited largely frox students of the S'.a'e N ormal School. Tne sterling q-ialities of mind and heart which have since been so freely recogniz ed by his fellow citizens, even at that early day, caused his stalest associates to elect him Lieutenant ofthe Company. Four days after being mustered into ser vice this command was at the front and assigned to the 31 Brigade, 3J Division, 3d Corpe, then under command of Gen eral Stonetnan, and later commanded by General Sickles. The most disastrous campaign in which the Regiment took part was that of ChanceiiorsviUe, where 115 of ita gal lant men went down on the field of bat tle. Tne college chums and cimradei cf David Newlia Fell, who went throcgh the ordeal of war with Lim, testify to hia coolness and bravery, his modesty and cn&incbing courage, and with it ail, his generous brotherly care for the comfort of every one of his command. Mastered oat after the expiration of Lis term of service, he aaia went to his bjoks and atudie, and devoted himse'.f assidioasly ,J WW - s , -v , -' - ww to the science of the law. Again we find him with a preceptor who had a keen in terest in his success his brother, Will iam W. Fell. Passing successfully and brilliantly the examination, he was ad mitted to the Bar March 17tb, lvm, w here he soon aruired an extensive end lucrative practice. His neighbors, early recognizing hia abilities, elected hiia to represent the 20th Ward cf Philadelphia in City Coun cils. The ready grasp and comprehen sive knowledge of the details of city government which he here acquired and displayed, suggested his availability for membership on the Municipal Commis sion, created by legislative enactment to devise plana for the government of tbe cities of the Cominoawrahb, and opon which he served with distinguished abil ity. Whiiesiiil a youiig man, his rije ; legal attainments and ttcrung qualities of character were recognized by Govern or Ilartranft, who anp-jinted him, on May ,'!J, 1S77, JaJge of the Court of Common Pleas No. 2, to liil the vacancy occasioned by the death of Judge Pratt. In the following November, as the sole nominee of both the Republican and Democraiic parlies, he was elected to the same position for the full term of ten years. When this expired in 1SS7, he was again honored with the double nom ination and a unanimous election. But all the civic honors which have been bestowed upon Judge Fell have never made him unmindful of his old comrades in arms, " the boys in blue." Duricg more than a q iarterof a century he has been an active and enthusiastic uiemberof Post 2 of the Graud Army of the Republic. In addition to his servic es in his Post, he Las brought his splend id attainments to the positions of Senior Vice Department Commander and Judge Advocate Genera! of the Grand Army of the Republic, Department of Pennsylva nia. He has a large circle of acquaint ances and friends among the war veter ans of the Keystone S;ate. Such, in brief, has been the carter of a brave and valiant sjldier, an upright and public spirited citizen, and a learned and able Judge. Thisfcketch ma weil conclude w ith a tribute paid him by the Hon. George S, Graham, of Pniladetphia, npon placing Judge Fell in notuinat.on ; for the sjpreme bench, when he said : "His record in every place of public trust is full of honor and will bear the closest tcrutiny. He always acquitted himself well, and won the encomiums of ltieieople. Upon the bench he Las cre ated fjr himself an en viable name. No man is more highly honjrel and thor oughly beloved am jng all the ju iges of cur county courts. His learning, bis aoility, his clear judicial mind, have made iiim a valuta jurist, and his un swerving adherence to right, fear'tsc-ness in the discharge of duty, unfailing cour tesy, manliness and modesty, have made him a model Judge, and endeared him to our bar and to our citizens g?utraily.'' A Wcrd to Mothers. Do net always be a drudge in your own household. Rett a little whenever yon can, and allow some of the members cf your family to be some of the work. Have a chair by the stove and w hen y on peep into the ovei sit while you look, yea, even a moment after ; you ill work all the faster for tbe short change cf position. While mending have your chair in the coziest corner, where good litcht will come in, and let tbe sua strike upon yoa, if possible, so that yon may set the strengthening, health giving influence- of iL Drop your hands occasion ally and let them rest. Lt your eyes wander out through the window glass as far as possible aud rest your eyes by looking at something interbtlcg out of doors. Drop the reina of household gov ernment for a little while, unbend your self, and sit down on the rug and play with thechildren, and, a it were, become again a child. F -onomiae yoar strength. Sit when you cn. Dj not hold the baby when it can rest and grow just as well in its crib. By resting when you cin, by planning the work to be done and by being systematic and orderly in all thing?, a woman's work is more easily done, Keeping Eggs. Tne Or injf L'vuul-j Farmer finds this in an English paper: "Pat two lamp? cf ur.slacked lime about tbe size cf your hand into an earthenware pan, pour on by degrees two gallons of boiling water.

New Cure for Headache. It issurprising to what an extent me chanical vibrations ar now employ d to act upon the morbid conditions of the sensitive nervous system, says anex tbar;e. 1'eLV udet, of Fri. has been able to produce lc il ao.thesia by con ducting tine and exceedingly rapid vibra tions half way np the rjols of the teeth, and to peifciai t!.s meat cainfui dental cp eratijMs, that ct cxtra-.ticg the li.ing ner.es from She tteth, tt ithout the patient feeling aoy pain. Cfaicot has smecsgful Iy u;-t the vibratory treatment fur cer tain nervous diseases accompanied by pain, aa well as certain mental conditions accompanied by depression, A very simple form of this treatment ia recouiruended by M. IVwrdonki, of Moscow. While he was one day exam ining a patient who was sutTering from an exciuciating headache he used per. cossion of the cranium just as ia done for the chest, to ascertain whether any ma terial lesion was perceptible. Two cr three minutes after finish in his examin ation he was greatly astonished to hear Lis j-al.t nt say that the headache had com pletely disappeared. M. IVurdouki Las since practived this method with much su. ces, especially in cases where there was no apparent caue for head ache, or when it assumed the i ervous form. The percussion must he made lightly, with only one or two fingers, without produi ing any unpleasant or too pronounced sensation, and the intensity ofthe taps can be gradually increased, Ia this way a vibratory mamige ia ad ministered, which ia calculated to re move tht distressing pymptcmMi It is evident that in many cafes this relief can be only momentary, and the cause of the headache muut then 1 dis covered, in order that a cure may le ejected. Cood Intentions. i iood intentions increase the respon sibility for right attainment, and in stead of palliating they only aggravate any guilt of listlessness. For every in tention of good is a privilege, and every privilege brings its added duty. Good intentions imply high ida!s and refined tastes, ideals which make less diilicult the attainment of that better living. The fact that a rnaa has the fa ilitating guid- j acre of good intentions cannot be taken j as an excuse far his neglect to obey that guidance. On the contrary, the severity of a man's condemnation is in proportion to the light ag-tinst which be sinned, and ! to the clearness of bis recognition of a 1 duty to resist th temptation to which he has yielded. Right determinations may end in failure, but they share none of thj responsibility for that failure ; good intentions which are uever at tempted earnestly always will end in failure, and will le a nitness for the deeper condemnation cf the lack of enerjy and self-sacrifice which causes that failure. It is right that there should be, ia popular parlance, no severer ex pression of censure, whether it be spoken charitably or contemptuously, than that "he means well." A Great Speech.
