As noticed in the REPULLICAN of last week,
a pftrsonal was thei week previously credit
to the Dushore Review that should have.
been credited to the Dushore Record. • Or
dinarily in such cases, the paper aggrieved
makes a note of the , fact in its own columns,
and couches its remarks in respectful lan.;
guage. This - weeks' copy pf the Review;
however, leads us to surmio that the Re
view chooses to follow not the beaten path
of decent journalism. We'do not - desire to
enter into a controversy with our neighbor.
But when the editors of that paper take it
upon themselves to make statements with
reference to the editing, of the Ritrunucan
that are untruthful, atq shall not hesitate
to say they are.so. S 4 'far then, as the ar
ticle in the Review declares that this paper
depends ppon any other paper in this vil
lage for the matter in any of its depart
clients, we pronounce it'entirely false, and
the editor who wrote it knew ho was lying
when he penned it. When the editor of
the Review remarks: '•We desire our es.,
teemed cotempararies to understand that .
We do not -slap over promiscuously, and
trust that herCafter we Will be credited
with no taffy articles originating in some
other paper," ho evidently has forgotten
a time when ho was anxiously "slopping
over," and,slobbering over the editors of
the papers in this place, to get them to sup
press bit of news with reference to a cer-:
tain libel suit -to which the editor of the
Revieii was defendant.

and detriment to the-public Interest,• but in its de:
moralizing effects, threatens the existence of repub

ry meetings of the political parties and at the polls,
towards the correction of this evil—Witte end that
we may have our best men In official station and
- reform the civil service generally, by arresting It
from the hands of political spolismen.
Revived, That we believe that a reduction of Us
atlon, national and local, is indlaponsable, and the
surest means of preventing unnecessary and_protat
gate expenditures. An overflowing national treas
ury tends to reckless, extravagant appropriations
by congress. as is illustrated iby the recent passage

Our 'community was :pained to learn of
the death at Eaglesraere, Sullivan Countyi
on Thursday morning last August 24th; of
Mrs. Means, wife -of 3. F. Means of
this place. The deceased and her bereaved
husband, Col. Means, are among the oldest
and best knciwn citizens, not only of .this
immediate place, of which the grand-father
of Col. Means was the founder, but through
out the county. The death of Mrs. Means
whose friends and acq4intances were
widely extended, will leave a var ncy in
a circle that can never be, • filled. • 'Her
health had not been good for some week;
past, and she went to the high • latitude of
Eaglesmere, in the hope that, she might be
benefited, where a week prior to her death
she was seized with the malady that baffled
all medical skill and ended in her death.
Her age we are informed was po . years.
Her husband and other friends were at
her ledside during her illness and rendered
the kindest ministrations for her comfort.
Her remains - arrived on Thursday afternoon,
and the funeral services stook place from
her late residence on Hain' Street, on Satur
day afternoon, largely attended by sympa
thizing friends wIM folloWed the remains
to their last resting place. 4

The.. exactions of society, added to the
caret of maternity and the housiihold, have
tested beyond endurance the frail constitu
tions which haie been granted the majority
of women. To combat this tendency to
premature decline, no remedy in the world
posiesses the nourishing and strengthening
properties of Malt Bitters:," They enrich
the blood, perfect digestion, stimulate the
liver and kidneYs, ~ .arrest ulcerative weak
ness, and purify and vitalize every function
of the female system. . • •
