gin to fall, or as soon as the fruit ripens.
The United States Sqpreiqe has de
clared the Civil Bights act passed by Congress
iu 1875 to be unconstitutional, excepting in the
territories and District of Columbia. This is
propably the only civilized nation on earth
that allows its judiciary to annul the acts of
its legislature.
It takes our U. S. Supreme Court a long
time to find out whether or no an act of Con
js VJ'hpre Supreme
udjeiary is part'of the law making power ai
is the case both in this State and Nation.it
seems to us that they should examine all acts
of the legislature or of Congress, before the
Governor or President signs them.
Last week we happcne-1 to meet several
yonng men from about Harmony at the P. &

}4p there are 411 black, and are commonly call

—The strike at the Dußois ooal mines still

start the mines with imported labor. One of
the leading business men of the town of

county, is Mr. John Dußois, after whom the
town is named. He employs six hundred men
in his lumber mills, one thoi'sond get tip)bc,'
fwjiu th« woods an 4 six hutulred are- mining
eoal for him. He offers to erect a court house
and public buildings if a new county is made
ol parts of Clearfield, Elk aud Jefferson coun
ties, called Dußois. Our former townsman,
ll;irry Wilson, has, with some other gentle,
men, started a paper there, called the Dußois
Express. The name of the firm is Iloag, Wil
son & Co. We wish them success, «

spoonful of white sugar in pure spring water,

Brown sugar made of glucose will become ropy

MR. li'I.AIXE'S FORTHCOMING BOOK.
Judging from the comments on every hand,
we are not surprised to learn that the publica
tion of Hon. Jauies G. Blaine's book, "Twenty
Years of Congress, from Lincoln to Garfield,
is awaited with anxious interest throughout the
country. He has for months been giving him
self to the task ot narrating the history of those
momentous and decisive legislative events
which crowd so thickly between 1861 and JBBI,
in which he himself bore a part. Mr. Blaine
is now in the prime of his powers, untrammeled
by the constraints of office, and sufficiently re
mote from the events to insure cool perception
and impartial treatment. Coming from a man
so thoroughly fitted for the work, and who
clothes with living interest all that he touches,
the appearance of this work will be an event of
national importance. Possessing greater com
bined political, historical and personal interest
than any other work of the century, it is cer
tain to be one of the most popular as well as
one of the most valuable books ever offered to
the public.
The work will be issued in two royal octavo
volumes of about 600 pages each. It will be
illustrated with line steel portraits of the lead
ing men of the time of which it treats, admir
ably arranged in groups. One volume will be
devoted to the administrations of Lincoln and
Johnson, and the other to those of Grant,
Hayes and Garfield. The work is to be sold
only by subscription, and the subscriptions al
ready taken indicate au imnense edition at the
start.
In American history there are no more in
teresting figures than the heroes and heroines
of the Border. liold, dashing, adventurous and
patriotic; loyal to friends, to country and to
the interests of osciety, their work was singu
larly effective in the advancement of American
civilization. With seeming recklessness, their
efforts were in the interest of law and order,
and the people owe them a debt of gratitude
they do ilot forget. Their page in history is as
as fascinating as it is honorable, and there is a
peculiar pleasure in reading the narative of
their wonderful exploits
The times which produced those heroes and
heroines mark a period in American history of
adsorbing interest alike to old and young. It
is proper that it should be so. These hardy
pioneers coupled virtue with courage, humani
ty and love of country with the stern dutied of
frontier life and battle and the example of their
lives not only interests but strengthens our
faith and admiration in human courage and
unselfish purpose.
t In American pioneer history there are three
distinct eras marked as distinctly by three
geographical divisions; from the Allegheny
Mountains to the Mississippi, marking the
first; from the Mississippi to the Rocky Moun
tains the second; California and the Pacifip
Slope the third. The settlement al" these vast
regions developed great leaders, whose achieve
ments have made them justly and widely
famous. They have a warm place in the
hearts of the people, and a prominent one in
their admiration. It is appropriate that their
achievements should be recorded, and we note
with pleasure the forthcoming of a new book,
now ready, from the press of N. D. Thompson
& Co., Publishers, f»ew York and St. Louis,
Mo., called : "Conquering the Wilderness, or
New Pictorial History of the Life and Times of
theJPioneers Heroes and Heroines of America.
It is written by Col. Frank Triplett, an ac
complished writer, whose literary
tions and grem experience on the frontiers are
said to eminently fit him forgo noble a task.
A special feature is its apt and profuse illus
trations, embracing 220 superb engravings,
illustrating incidents and persons—the latter
embracing nearly 100 life-like portraits, of
pioneer leaders, never before given—men and
women—which make it a sort or a picture gal
lery, as well as a book of thrilling narative,
that will lend to the book a charm and interest
not to be resisted.
It ij sold by subscription, through canvassing
agfcpts, and presents an orpportunity to agents
to make money especially inviting. We ad
vertise it in another column. .

The McConnell Suicide.
Mrs. Melissa McConnell, dee'd., who
made her home of late with her brother Chas,
Christy, of Slipperyrock township, cut her
throat with a razor on the morning of the 13th,
inst., and died that eyening. The razor sepa.
rated the jugular veiu aud the esophagus, but
did not reach the large artery farther in or
death would hav been r.lmost Immediate.
Mrs, MotJonnell's mind has hotn dtwanged for
some time, she lial attempted suicide before,
and it is due ta Mr. Christy and his family to
say that they took every precaution regaruintr
her. Where she got the razor is a mystery to
them as they had never seen it before. She
leaves no children, and was buried in the Cen.
trevile cemetery, Sunday afternoon.

AMERICA AHEAD.
Peculiar Characteristics of Amer
icans—The Evils and How
Resto ed
In this age of bustle aud hurry, an age de
voted to great projects and enterprises, the
American peoplo are taking the lead in the
Furtherance of noble works, and in the advance
ment of the sciences and arts. In these they
deserve to take a high rank, aud through
,united works of millions, the American conti
nent is fast being transformed from its untamed
state and being placed on an equality with the
older continents beyond the ocean. The Amer
ican people are fast under those influences, de
veloping into a nervous, energetic race, re
markable for its vim and business qualifica
tions; yet there is danger that in the course of
years these very elements may combine to the
ruination of the physical character of the peo
ple, and leave them feeble and altogether dif
ferent from their forefathers. General debility
is now much more common than formerly,
and seems to be on the increase among the
masses. Many remedies have been extensively
advertised for this wide spread complaint, but
none of these have been so successful. Mr. S.
S. Goudy, of Massillon, Stark county, Ohio,
writes that he had been troubled with general
debility aud dyspepsia for several years; that
he was induced to try Peruna for his com
plaints, and that after using three bottles of
the medicine he was greatly relieved. It
braced him right up and gave him energy, and
restored him to his youthful vigor. He
ascribes his cure to Peruna, and says it is a
wonderful remedy.
