, . . .. . .
Ker mil, now one hundred and four years of
age,-waiitea six miles to cast his Vote. He has
voted at every Presidential election since the
adoption of the Constitution.
It is said that an effort is beincr made to in-
duce Judge Taney to resign his place as Chief
justice ot the Supreme Court, that Mr. Bu
chanan may appoint his successor. The troub
le is the old man can hardly live through Lin

says the charge that Mr. Douglas framed the
jecompton Constitution, as it was submitted
to the people of Kansas, and the assertion that
any anti-Douglas man was ottered the Vice-
residential nomination on the Douglas ticket,
are both too silly for anybody to believe.
A Little Girl Fighting a Bear. The fol
lowing circnmstancc is said to have occurred
n the town of forest, in Badax county, Wis
consin. Two children, aged nine and eleven,
where digging ginseng, and came in contact
with a bear of large size, which seized the
younger and mangled it in a shocking manner,
when the father, hearing the screams of the
child, came to its rescue, and found theeldcr,
girl, combatting with the furious beast like
a noble champion. He succeeded in driving
the bear away, and proceeded on his way home,
the bear following for somo distance, not wil
ing to depart without his anticipated booty.
i f ( is a common observation that there" are more
sufferers from debility, among Americans, than
n bo found among any other -civilized nation.
The reason is obvious. We take too little exerciso,
and forget the wants of the body in the absorbing
pursuits of business. In all such cases, ordinary
medicines can do but little good. What is requir
ed is just .such a tonic and invigorator as Dr. J.
llestetter has given to the world, in his Celebra
ted 'Bitters.' The weak and nervous denizen of
the counting house, the exhausted toiler upon the
shop board, and the prostrated student of the mid
night lamp, have found a wonderful regenerator
in the 'Bitters,' and prefer it to more pretentious,
bat less efficacious medicines. But it should not
be forgotten that the agent which is so magical
in its influence upon a frame which is merely de
bilitated, is equally powerful in assistinz nature
to expel the mo t terrible forms of disease. Who
would not give it a trial? Sold by druggists and

boy, whose life gave promise of comfort and
satisfaction to his pirents. His sufferings,
though of short duration, were very severe.
Death came to him in the form of dropsy in the
chest so insiduously and with such violence that
it baffled all medical skill. He was conscious
until the last; and spoke of hearing beautiful
and heavenly sounds. Parents need not la

"It must be sweet, in childhood, to give back
The spirit to its Maker, ere the heart
Has grown familiar with the paths of sin."
