A Yorwo man by the name of William Kotz,

feet hurt him verv hailiy, and expressing fear"
that they were frost-bitten. He hail in vain

aud had endeavored, without success, eas,-
the paine by rubbintr his feet with snow and
ice, the remedy apolied in «tirh case*. Being
exposed a great deal to the cold by his occupation
hi* feet got worse daily, until one day he
fainted in the street. A few days after he
again came to my store and showed me his
feet. I have seen a great many sores in my
life, but nothing to eriual thi*, and was afraid
the poor feliow would lose his limb*. He
asked me for ST. JACOBS OIL; but at first I re
fused, as I did not wish to take tbe responsi
bility niion mv»elf, not l>eing a great admirer
of no-called Patent-Medicines. However, some
friends. *ho happened to lie in the store at the
time, begged roe give the ST. JAOOMM Oil. to

the OIL, and he Uiok the remainder with him.

ACCORDING to the verdict of a jury
in a ease lately tried liefore our Court,
wherein the defendant was made to
pay the costs of the suit, and from
the decisions of some Justices of the
Peace of this county in some cases
lately tried before them, we would
juHge that good mechanics and honest
contractors were no longer wanted
either in this town or county. The
verdicts of juries sometimes are, as we
all know, unaccountable, and it is
human nature for Justices to look af
ter their costs, a fact that might he
remedied in the interests of justice by
making the office a salaried one. We
heard a good carpenter and contractor
argue the other day that it was useless
for him to bid on a job, when another
and entirely irresponsible person
would underbid him, do the job when
he pleased and how he pleased, and
get a verdict or decision in his favor
no matter how the contract read or
what the specifications called for.

A Or oat Mistake Corrected.
In our issue of Jan. 2*th, under the heading
"A Shrewd Hergyman," we gave an account of
a Rev. Lane, of Ken*ico, who had been ar
raigned for kissing some of his leinale mem-
Iters, and, to our (Treat surprise, we learned that
either through ignorance or malice, or both,
some person* started the impression that Ken
*ico was merely a fictitious name, and that the
article wa* intended as a malicious drive at
Itev.-H. Ijine, of thi* county. And now, we
conaider it due the latter, a* a Christian minis
ter, to say that the article was copied from the
New York Sun, and ha* reference to Rev.
lane, of Kensico. V Y. Our mistake in the
i**ue of Jan. 2«tii wa* the omission of S. Y.
after Kensico, leaving it indefinite, and our
second mistake, in om inane of Feb. ISth, un
der the heading "A Great < ommotion," arose
from our not knowing that ot/irr* hail Jiml ap
plied, or supposed it to apply, to Rev. S. Lane.
We very much regret the indeflniteness which
gave mom for this annoyance, both to him and
to us. The CITIZKS is above any willful wrong,
and we believe that Kev. S. Lane is almve the
reach of any real harm Irotn the ignorance or
malice of those who op|>o«e hi* denunciation*
of *in. We did not know *uch a minister was

Double Poetal-Cards.
Postmaster General Key has ad
dressed a communication to the House
Post-Ollice Committee in response to a
resolution calling upon him for infor
mation in regard to the double postal
cards and returning letter envelopes
authorized by the Forty-fifth Congress,
and his reason for not adopting them.
He adverts to the restrictions imposed
by the law on the payment of any
more money for designs, and savs that
all designs for such cards as possess
any merit have been patented. Moreover
the contract under which the single post
al cards are furnished would, in the opin
ion of the Assistant Attorney General,
cover all postal-cards to be used by the
Government until the expiration of
the contract. This would compel the
department to accept the terms of a
single manufacturer. Further, as the
present system of postal-cards has
proved merely a private accommoda
tion and has not increased the revenue,
the department does not favorably re
gard the policy of opening the door to
further encroachment upon the .'{-cent
postage rate. The Postmaster General
does not regard the double-letter en
velopes as of any practical utility.

of the removal of the rite of marriage
from all civil jurisdiction whatsoever.
It. traces the history of marriage from
patriarchal to Catholic times, and de
clare- that Christ elevated it to a sac
rament., which only His Church can
administer. The attempt made under
various guises by the modern -pirit of
irrcligion to rob the Church of her
rijrht, cither to bind or loose the mar
riage tie, must be resisted by the whole
Catholic world. Mis Holiness indicates
the conditions whereunder a separation
of husband and wife may be sanctioned
by the Church, and concludes with an
exhortation t<> the universal episcopate
to communicate his teaching to the
faithful for their welfare in both
worlds.
