Not that John Lycurgus is" addicted to
tlio use of water of any kind ; no po
litician on the Pacific slope absorbs
water while whisky preserves its nor
mal condition of fiery cheapness. But
John Lycurgus Wbiteaker is a fresh
water Democrat in the sensy of being a
Stranger to salt water until seen on the
shores of the Pacific Ocean. Burn and
raised in Missouri, Arkausas, or some
other state remote irom the eastern
seaboarcl, John Lycurgus Wbiteaker
pursued tho even paths of agricultural
life in Orcein, until the Democratic
party, aud his country, summoned him
from his plow. Large of frame, hughe
thighed, flabby, and good-naturcd
John Lycurgus chewed tobacco,
secreted his share of corn-juice, rajsed
white headed children, and pureued
the even tenorW his way until elected
to CoDgress. And.when, in the privacy
of his Oreeronian home, ho read in the
- . -
weekly paper that he was actually
elected to Cougrcsv honest John
Whiteaker threw his otter skiii cap on
the floor, and f-aid :f "Well. I'm

on Tuesday, March 18, when the House
was called to order by Clerk Adams, a
pale, worn, tattered, and dust covered
figure tottered into the House of Rep
resentatives. Its eyes were sunken.
and its limbs reminded pitying behold
ers ei the belated cham pions of the
late walking match. It was gaunt and
unshaven, and a strong llavor of canned
provisions was-exhaled from its person.
"I am John Lycurgus Whiteaker, of
Oregon," he whispered.'. He voted for
Randall for Speaker. - The country was

STRICTLY A REFOBLICAS PAPER.
Devoted to the interests oi Wilmington and
and the State of North Carolina, as well as
a wcbtoot,'' if not web-footed. Ilis
views offtatesmaiifship are primitive
J. , W. Nesmilb, another fresh water
Democrat, who was never east of the
MisftL-smni ''ritr until he went to
'iVa'ihiugtou asi Senator, was a good
type of the race. Asked by the
grandiloquent Sumner hotf he was im
pressed by the surroundings and
itmosphere of the United States Senate,
Ne3inith replied : "Fur the first ssix
months L wondered how I ever got
here; ever sines thatj I have wondered
how any of you ever got here."
Whiteaker has got there. Hi will
never cease wondering how it all hap
pened. To him hi-passage from the.
piny woods of Oregon to -the gilt
gingerbread splenders of Washington
is like a fevered dream.
Elected to Congress, and hugging
himself with the idea that he , was a
Btutesman,' Johu Iycurgus Whiteaki r
fondly lingered in the bosom of bis
family. Eleven white-headed, not to
say white-acredi babes claimed him as
progenitor and protector. Slumbering

Pi ely opia, cr what is com monly
known as far sightedness, is found to
supervene earlier with those who are
constantly at work than with other in
dividuals, and, as soon as it does, con
vi x glasses should at once be resorted
to, w ithout which the muscles of accom
modation would be fatigued to no pur
post; at first, they should be used for
working in the evening, after the fatigue '
of the day; but a long sighted person
should only use spectacles 'for looking
at rear objects, not at far ones. Work
requiring close application favors the
development of myopia, or near I sight
edness, precisely in- proportion as the
conditions of illumination are bad; and,
if the action of those causes continues,
tb" myopia must increase until vision
ii lot. Ifthe eyes are fatigued by bad
artificial illumination, blue or lightly
smoked or smoke colored glasses are
useful; and, in order to avoid the lateral
rayrf, they should be large and round.
In ease of persistent irritation, all work ,
should be abandoned, and an examina
.tion made to see if there be any dis
turb.isice or refraction etc. .

The paper?, in these times of general
economy, are filled with very learned
e?siiH on the ease with which a con
rtidtrabje family may support itself on
t ii dollars a week. It must be an im
mense gratification to a poor man to
know that with that moderate sum he
can havri plentiful and not very! mys
terious hash for breakfast, and a whole
some soup and stew for dinner. j.Now,
if we can bave a few more learned
essays that is a few more essays a
little more ItarDed-r-which will kindly
inform the poor man where he can
pick up that ten dollar bill every week,
the consummation so devoutly to be
wished will be reached. After many
years of tolerable acute observation
we are confident that it is not half as
nVci-ssary to tell mo how to tfpend
m.ney. as how to get it. We can find
any number of families who will jshow
you how to live on eight dollars a week,
if you will kindly furnish the money.

FOR MAN AND BEAST.
This liniment very naturally originated in Ameri

surprising antidotes for the maladies of her chil
dren, lis fame has been spreading for 85 years,
until now it encircles the habitable globe.
The Mexican Mustang Liniment is a matchless
remedy for all external ailments of man and beast.
To stock owners and farmers it is Invaluable.
A single bottlo often saves a human life or re
stores the usefulness of an excellent horse, ok,
cow, or sheep. '
It cures foot-rot, hoof -ail, hollow horn, grub,
screw-worm, shoulder-rot, mange, the bites and.
stings of poisonous reptiles and insects, and every
such drawback to stock breeding and bush, life.
It cures every external trouble of horses, such
as lameness, scratches, swinny, sprains, founder,
wind-gall, ring bone, etc., etc.
The Mexican Mustang Liniment is the quickest
cure In the world for accidents occurring in tho
family, in the absence of a physician, such as
burns, scalds, sprains, cuts, etc., and for rheuma
tism, and stillness engendered by exposure. Par
ticularly valuable to Miners.
It is the cheapest remedy In the world, for It
penetrates the muscle to the bone, and a single
application is generally sufficient to cure.
Mexican Mustang liniment Is put up In three
sizes of bottles, the larger ones being proportion
Btcly much the cheapest. Sold everywhere. ."
