Pain in the .Back and Side. . There is nothing more painful than these diseases; but the pain can be removed and the disease cured by use of Perry Davis' Pain Killer. This remedy is not a cheap Benzine or Petroleum product that must be kept avray from fire or hettt to avoid danger of explosion, nor Is it an untried expert ment that may do more harm than good. Paifi Killer has been In constant use for forty years, and the universal testimony from all parts of the world Is, It never f ai Is. It not only effects a permanent cure, but It relieves pain almost Instantaneously. Being a purely vegetable remedy, it Is safe In the hands of the most Inexperienced. The record of cures by the use of Pah? KiiiBB would All volumes. The following extracta from letters received show what those -who have tried It think: Edgar Cady, Owatoana, Minn., says : About a year since my wife became subject to severe suffering- from rheumatism. Our resort was to the Path Kii.t.ih, which speedily relieved her.. Charles Powell writes from the Sailors' Home, London: I had been afflicted three years with neuralgia andyiolent spasms of the stomach. The doctors at Westminster Hospital gave up my caes in despair. I tried your Pais Killib, aiid it gra me immediate relief. I have rerained my strength, and am now able to follow my usual occupation. O. H. Walworth. Baco, Me., writes : I experienced immediate relief from pain In the side by toe use of your Pais Rn i.rn E.York says: I have used your Pxnt Kjlleb for rheumatism, and have received great benefit Barton Seaman says : Hay. used Pain Knxxa for thirty years, and have found it a nmrfaiiing remedy for rheumatism and lameness. Mr. Burditt writes : J.VIC!alitg1ve relief in cases of rheumatism. PhU. Gilbert, Somerset, Pa., writes : From actual use, I know your Paid KTT.T.ita is the best medicine I can get. All druggists keep Paut Killer, its price Is so low that it is within the reach of all, and it will save many times its cost in doctors' bills. 25c., 50c and $1.00 a bottle. PERRY DAVIS A SON.

The Readjuster strength proper in Virginia is 27,454 Mr. W. H. Triscott, who has been sent as minister plenipotentiary to Chili, Borne and BoliYia, is a South Carolinian. A young German chemist of Balti more is the largest advertiser in the country. He spends two hundred thous and dollars a year and has made a great fortune by a liberal and striking use of printer's ink. The basis of the article he advertises is kerosene, but it has been a gold mine to the advertiser. A New York poultry dealer states positively that many people are poison ed by eating game the entrails of which have remained long undrawn. He con tends that all animals, fish, flesh or f owlf should be disemboweled before their flesh is cold, and that the law should compel this exaction. On a capital of $270,000 a Baltimore fertilizing company did a business an nually of over $2,000,000. There is food for reflection in this. According to the last census the to tal population of the States and terri tories, exempting Indian territory and Alaska, the inhabitants of which are not considered citizens, is 50,155,783, of which 25,518,820 are males, 24,636,963 fe males, 43,475,840 natives, 6,679,943 for eign, 43,402,970 white, 6,580,793 colored, 105,465 Chinese, 148 Japanese, 66,407 In dians. Only Indians subject to taxation are enumerated. North Carolina has, according to the lastcensus. a total population of 1,399,- 750 against 1,071,361 in 1870. Of these 687,908 are males, 711,842 females, 1,396,- 008 native, 3,742 foreign, 867,242 white, 531,277 colored, 1 Japanese, 1,230 In dians. Speaker Keifer is reported as mani festing a very fair spirit. He has con sulted with prominent Democrats about the committee chairmanships. Mr. Henry Nutt, a prominent citizen of Wilmington, died in that city last Sunday, aged 74 years. The Washington correspondent of the Augusta Chronicle says Washington has the best paved streets in America, and that it is a pretty sight to stand on Pennsylvania avenue at night and watch the dozens of bicycles, with their redlamp8 suspended, gliding noiselessly over the smooth roadway. Miss Annie Louise Carey will make her last appearance on the stae next June, and will be married in the fall. She is forty-one years old and her in tended husband, James Lorillard, of New York, thirty-five. Mr. John W. Garrett has been re elected president of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad for the twenty-fifth time. He has held that position for nearly a quarter of a century, and by his able management built up his road till it is one of the most prosperous and power ful in the country. STATE NEWS. Raleigh News and Observer : Mr. J. C. Holder, the miller at Alford's mill, fif teen miles south west of this city, was on. Monaay morning KnocKea aown and robbed of $100. The deed was done by a negro, Addison Utley, who is now under arrest. Mr. Holders inju ries are not serious. ' Mr. L. P. Council, of Chatham, is a proud man, and is the . Nimrod of that county.

It is called a discouraging sign. It is said that the railroad offices in Austria employ upward of 3,000 women. They receive a salary of from five to thirty dollars per month; Invariably they are the near relatives of dead - or active male employes of tbe different roads. A magnificent set of harness has been made in Philadelphia at the order of one of the nabobs of the East Siam Pasha, of Egypt fr a pet Arabian stallion belonging to the favorite of his harem. The stallion is called Enos, and its mistress is a Circassian of sur passing beauty, named Adellah. The harness is made of the finest buff un dressed leather, tanned white, and the mountings are of white metal, coated with silver. Mr. James Hood, a brother of Gener al John B Hood, living in Montgom ery county, 'Kentucky, claims to have discovered the original mines of silver on Sand Mountain, worked a hundred years ago by the famous Swift, who came across the mountains from North! Carolina about the time or a little after Daniel Boone. Swift returned to North Carolina with a fabulous amount of silver in bars, but died before he could return to increase : his wealth. The secret of the location died with him. Mr. Hood claims to have disco veied not only the lode, but the pit worked by the pioneer. Castelar, ex-President of Spain, is on ly fifty years of age. He wrote two novels before he was eighteen, which induced his relatives to club together and give him an : education. While at the MadridUniversity he was busily en gaged in all kinds of journalism. At the age of twenty-two he was present at a political meeting as a spectator. It was during the revolution of-1857. He became excited, sprang to the tribune, and made an oration which gave him immediate favor and honor. Our Forests. Augusta Chronicle. The Turk is the opprobrium of Eu rops and Asia, not only because of his social disorder, but for the further rea son that his destruction of the forests has turned gardens to deserts. The slothful, sensual life and the belief in a false Prophet are bad enough ; but to these must be superadded a crime against nature in the defacement and ruin of the earth itself. But the Turk is not alone to be reprehended in this respect Our own countrymen, North and South, are rapidly placing them selves under a similar ban. The burn ing of Vast Rocky Mountain woodlands by miners and hunters filled Sir Samuel Baker with astonishment and indigna tion. He points oat that this monstrous wantonness bade fair "to convert fertile valleys and copious river sources into arid deserts and dried up gulches." We learn from numerous sources that the splendid forests of the East and West are rapidly perishing before the wood man's axe", and that there is no provis ion made against the evil day when these lands will become wastes, and per haps deserts, just as the Turk has made portions of Syria and Roumalia. In the South there has been much spoliation of the forest and not much care to revive it ; but this section still Possesses the vastest and most availa le woodland on the continent. Years of invasion have not mortally wounded us in this respect, thanks to a compara tively sparse population and the ten dency of idle fields to reclaim them selves by another" growth. The most serious trespass upon our forests has been for fences, and this is another reason why the "no fence law" should prevail. We must treasure our wood land and not abuse it. As the forests are cut away at the North ours will be come more and more valuable. The day is not distant when Southern woods will be sought for more eagerly than cleared fields, and it is of the last im portance thjtt they shall be preserved in every way possible. So, as one capital preservative, let "the "no fence" law prevail at the election, when called. The Atlanta Exposition has opened the eyes of the world to the extent and variety and value of our woods, and they should be spared for better uses than making fences to shut out a few predatory cows and goats. tm GUITEATJ. Another Expert Who Believe Him . , Sane A. Difference of Opinion. Washington, D. C, Dec 22. In the Guiteau trial td-dav Dr. Theodore Dia mond, of Aubnrn, N. Y., who had been summoned for the defence and detain ed by the prosecution, was called to the stand and testified that he be lieved Guiteau was. sane. On the cross examinatiou he said he found that the peculiarities of a sane mind generally appear prominent in the insane mind and that instances of total change of character were rare. This was in di rect opposition to the weight of the expert testimony previously given. Lelg-lt amttU'S Folaur Expedition Heard From. London, Dec. 22. The Times this morning Bays: "Information has been received from Tromso, Norway, which augurs well for the success of Mr. Leigh Smith's voyage.
