Oat there waa a caae of smaltpem
ia towa to day, the case coming ia
from the country. A Mim Spain,
aged abont 12 years, came to this
county from South Carolina three
or four weeks ago, and has been
living with Mr. Ben Gwahaey, at
the Gotham place, 6 miles from
town. A breaking out recently ap
paaaad aa the girl aad to-day she
was brought to town and carried to
Dr. Langhinghouse tor examina
tion. Dr. Langhinghouse st once
sent for Dr. Brown, and they pro
nounced it a well developed case of
amaßpox.
It seems that the girl has been
attending a school in Mr. Gwalt
ney's neighborhood, and the num
ber of children exposed by coming
in contact with her makes the situ
ation a rather serious one. •
The girl was seat back to Mr.
Gwahney's at once and his house
placed under a strict quarantine,
and a general vaccination in the
neighborhood will follow.

The next tobacco crop win be

one-half of last yean planting. In
the old tobacco growing sections
there will certainly be a great deal
I lev tobacco planted this year than
last, that is if there is anything in
the mil signs. If this is true,and
jit is, then tobacco must sell higher
as the season advances.
To tell the truth, tobacco is not
selling now for enough money. The
conditions do not justify present
low prices on many grades. W*
are gratified to know, however .that
there is aa imwovement, and the
tendency is upward*.
We hare been Uught by the
great men of the country that
prion are controlled by the law of
supply and demand. We are told
that .this law applies to the present
high prion of cotton. If there is
anything in this law, then tobacco
! will hare to "go up higher," for
there is a growing increase in the
consumption, and there is going to
be a ducre—t in the production.

The worn-out stomach of the
over-fed millionaire is often paraded
in the public prints as a horrible
example of the evils attendant on
the possession of great wealth. But
millionaires are not the only ones
who are afflicted with bad stomachs.
The proportion is fsr greater among
the toilers. Dyspepsia and indiges
tion are rampant among these peo
ple, and they suffer fsr worse tor
tues than the millionaire nuless
they avail themselves of a standard
medicine like Green's August
Flower, which has been s favorite
household remedy for all stomach
troubles for over thirty-five years.
Augnst Flower arouses the torpid
liver, thus creating appetite and in
suring pefect digestion. It tones
and vitalizes the entire system and
makes life worth living, no matter

-THE TAIL PIECE."
Hogarth's Qrut Picture Representing
the End of Ail Thing*.
Hogarth. ilie famous falirint, pro
duced a picture that for its clioico
of subjects has never been equaled.
Not long before the death of thia
rius he set about executing what
facetiously termed The Tail
r Piece." While aitting at his own ta
ble in company with • number of
boon companions he was asked by
one of them what would be the aub
■ iect of hia next drawing, lie gloom
, ily answered, "The end of all
t things." The next day he began the
design for this painting, ana when
finished it proved a most ingenious
i and unique effort lie grouped to
gether everything that could denote
*the end of all things."
On the canraa waa aeen a broken
bottle, a worn out atump of a
broom, the broken butt of an sld
musket, an nnatrung bow, a cracked
r bell, a ciown crumbling to pieco,
- the ruins of a tower, the laljiif
► signpost of an inn called T}«
World's End. a waning moon, the
map of the globe burning, a gallows
falling into decay, the chains which
held the body of the executed crimi
nal hanging down and broken; the
god of day (Phoebus) lying dead in
tha clouds, a wrecked vessel, a rep
resentation of Father Time with a
broken scythe and hourglass, a pipe
from which issued a faint cloud of
amoke, an open play book, with the
legend exeunt omnea (exit all)
stamped in the corner; sn empty
purse and a statute of bankruptcy
taken out against nature.
The finishing touch consisted of a
broken palette npon which was in
scribed the word "Finis." Ilognrth
nercr again took bis palette in
hand, and one month after "The
Tail Piece" was finished he passed
•way.
