Senator BetOcand Mrs. Beck have gooe to .Florida. Kentucky has a colored fern ale tea -pcrinco lecturer. Kcncins all the go in Paris just now, for ladies an well as men. The Pake ot Newcastle lingers at Jacksonville. Fia., until Spring shall come. xy A large number of boys and girls in Saahvilio. Term., are going into silk culture thin Spring. . The total Ios.hcs by fire in the United States iluring January and February re cfetl.oiatrd at B 1? S50.0O0. The reigning beauty or Ireland is a B lfart mill girl. Crowds, it is said, Hirronnd th mill daily to see her as she takes lu-r departure. Tha Princes lh;lMrouki has taken a superb mansion in Paris for two years. rd proposes to live there quietly with her children, takius no notice of Rus sian politics. The average stay of servant girls in families is said to be less than seven weeks, taking the country over. In Wilmington it would hardly average eren days. The whipping-poat for wife-bearera is to be set up in Illinois. The law not only provides that any husband who as saults his wite shall bo whipped upon tLe bare back, but that he shall pay all costs ot prosecution. The four German ofliecrs detailed ta organize the Sultan's army have, by permission from Berlin, entered the Turkish service, and fifteen Turkish offioers are to join the German army for experience. - Kansas is to have a railroad com mission. The business cf the com mis 6ion. as outlined by an act which, has just passed the Legislature, is mainly to see that the laws affecting trans portation are enforced. Passenger fare 8 limited to three cents per mile. The Bloomington Paragraph heads its account of Judge David Davis's wedding as lollows: "Bloomington's Big Jude, in IKking Over the Gar den of Womanhood. Selects the Burr, Probably Because he Realizes that She Wiinitick to Him Through Thick and Tain." Mrs. W. K. Vanderbilt's Easter balj continues to be the topic of conversa. tioa m New York society: It is esti mated that the diamonds to be displayed by tho ladies on that occasion will represent a value of five million dollars The entertainment will cost ndt less than fifty thousand dollars, the cham pagne alone costing two thousand dol lars. A bill has passed one Hons? of the Missouri Legislature reducing tho pres ent legal rates fqr freight on railways a that State by 35 per cent. It is backed by what is called the Farmors' dub. The St. Louis Efvublican, the ieadin? Democratic pa per of Missouri. ay that, through competition, freight rates are already reduced somewhat below the legal rates, and that, if the bill -becomes a law, it will inflict & -.serious-blow to the prosperity of tho State- It is said m New York that Mr. Ru tas Hatch, who is now in London, has negotiated with English capitalists to purchase 3.000.000 acres of land from the Northern Pacific Railroad in Mon tana, and stock it with 5.000.000 worth ot cattle. This has long been a pet scheme with Mr. Hatch, but ho has not teen able to induce New York capital fcto join him. u"6 ,tAtesve tonkmark aserts ti&t neither Judge Bennett nor Judge Ashe, whilo on the bench, carried tree railroad passes. Is the Landmark sure .where of it speaks? Some ycar9 smcc we heard a " gentleman who is sure to have beeu pretty well posted on th subject, remark that there was but Jud-eot the4 Superior Court in orh Carolina who did not carry a Uroad pass in his pocket. Wo can ot blame a Judge who is compelled to JJU the circuits of tho State, from Uttntuck to Cherokee, with a salary 01 &ly $i,500. out of which he must cot only support his family, but pay H of his own expanses, if he does at J" railroad passes. Tho wrong, if rong there Is, isroperly chargeablo to the niggardly policy called economy on th pxrt o! oor State, . ii 1 u J - VOL. VII.

Men seem to love to be swindled, stipulating only that It sh&U he neat ly done. The dear public are equally liberal to the electric and magnetic fraud. This fellow la a genius In his line. He will put a magnetic belt around your waist, a magnetic necklace under i . your chin, or lit you! out with ac entire suit of magnetic clothes, warranted to serve the pur pose of ordinary garments1, and at tho same time to cure all diseases, from whoopia-cough to hasty consumption. Most of these have no more electric or mag netic powex about them than resides in woolen blankets ar In girdles of sackcloth. Only when applied by an expert Is electricity of the i i i i slightest use as a medicinal agent, and even . . i then its value Is grossly over stated. What Is the strongest possible presumptive evidence in favor of a particular remedy ? Clearly that it should have been prepared by responsible per sons of acknowledged skill in the treatment o: disease. Squarely on this foundation stands BEN SON'S CAPCINE . PORUS PLASTER.
