THE SOURCE OF STRENGTH.
Physical force is one of the greatest of
human possessions, but unfortunately it
acts only a short time. Accident, disease,
or old age comes along and the forces
winch were once so powerful quickly pass
away. Anything that can restore these
powers or preserve them is therefore more
valuable than the powers themselves and
ido!(3 ro be admired. Thisi3 exactly what
Warner s Safe Kidney and Liver Cure
hoes. It takes the body when it is broken
M bowed by sickness and restores it to
an the powers it once possessed. It casts
ihsease arid all other opposing evils over
he precipice into oblivion. It has no
menus that are enemies of health and no
Mieiiues that are the friends of health,
the vast importance oi the lower portion
ft the body ia producing good health is
becoming better known every day. Both
“en and women of all classes realize this.
* or women previous to child-birth, for all
ine diseases peculiar to their sex, for de-
wntated men and puny children there is
nothing which so safely and surely stts-
tims and restores as this Great Natural
Remedy. The kidneys and urinary or-
sMs, when deranged, undermine the life
much quicker than consumption, and they
fmt attended to promptly or fatal con-
sequences are sure to follow. The testi-
monials which are printed herewith ciear-
y show that Warner’s Safe Kidney and
River Cure will not only check those dis-
■fes but entirely cure them even after
racy have become seated. It is the only
?°wn remedy which will safely and cer-
dllJy f(o this, and there is not an instance
on record where it has failed. It is for

be questioned :
Messrs. H. II. Warner & Co:
Gentlemen: I have for a long time
been afflicted with a terrible kidney com-
plaint which it seemed at times nothing
could control. I tried doctors and medi-
cine extensively but tound no relief. Fi-
oaryr?.\vas advised by a friend to try your
Safe Kidney and Liver Cure, and now, af-
ter suffering nearlv four years the most
acute pain, I find myself entirely well and
able to attend to business every day.

lish them this morning;
i es, give me the land where the ruins are
spread
And the living tread light on the hearts
of the dead;
^es^give me the land that is blest by the
And bright with the deeds of the down-
trodden just.
Yes, give me the land where the battle’s
red biast
Has flashed to the future the fame of the
past.;
Yes, give me the land that has legends
and lays
That tell ot the memory of long-vanished
days;
i es, give me the land that hath story and
song,
Enshrining the strife of the right with
the wrong;
T es, give me a land with a grave in each
spot
And names in the graves that shall not
be forgot;
Y es, give me the land of the wreck and
the tomb—
There is grandeur in graves—there is
glory in gloom;
For out of the gloom future brightness is
As after the night comes the sunrise of
morn ;
And the graves of the dead with the grass
overgrown
May yet form the footstools of liberty’s
throne,
And each single wreck in the war-path ot
might
Shall yet be a rock in the temple ot right.

Finlay on Spaight
Beaching the department of in-
surance, etc., Mr. Finlay moved to
strike out the entire appropriation,
which includes the salary for Col
Spaight, two clerks, stationery,
etc., also $100,000 for publishing
information for immigration pur-
poses, and $15,000 for represent-
ing Texas at the New York
World’s Fair, in 1882.
Mr. Finlay would, after striking
out the whole, insert in another
place an appropriation to repre-
sent Texas at the World’s Fair. It
tna^ appear, be said, that this is a
radical amendment, bat it is justi-
fied by the history of the office of
commissioner of insurance, statis-
tics and history. What supervis-
ion has this officer over insurance ?
None whatever. Then it is a mis-
nomer. There are fifty insurance
companies operating in this state,
and yet this office has never inves-
tigated a single company asking
to do business in Texas. How
much history has it gathered to-
gether ! Who had written the
histories of this country and of
Texas? What can this depart-
ment do toward writing the histo-
nn XT,. .1 . ^____x
tion prohibits the granting of
money for any purpose of immi-
gration, and 1 say we shall not do
it. Now, $10,000 is proposed to
be expended for that purpose by
this department. Now, for the
magnificent gentleman: Why, he
don’t speak to me, as I understand,
because he heard that I said ho
wore lavender kids and dyed his
hair blue. This cultivated gentle-
man dow’t speak to me ! People
generally speak to me; even those
who believe that 1 am no account
in the world, speak to me, aud this
geutleman walks down the street,
and if he sees me coming de-
scribes a wide circle to avoid me.
He don’t want to enter the same
atmosphere I breathe. You say
that 1 am opposed to this fine geu-
tlemao, but that the office is an-
other thing. I say the man is not
the man for the office. During the
war he commanded a halfham-
mond brigade down about Sabine,
aud when the enemy appeared
they took to the woods and ran
forty miles before they stopped.
Gen. Magruder sent Major Oscar
Watkins, with 'a few men, aud he
recaptured what the valiant col
onel of the brigade had lost. And
this is the gentleman who is to
write Texas history! The legisla
ture passed a resolution of thanks
to Major Watkins, the junior of-
fice. [The speaker then described
Ool. Spaight getting a commission
to represent Texas at the Paris
world’s lair and slipping off for a
year to Waukesha.] About three
years ago he was a member of the
Galveston Board of Health—a
prominent member of the board.
One evening it was reported that
fever was in town, aud the next
day this health officer was miss-
iog, and the uext time he was seen
was in November. This fleet man
is to write you a history, and if
you grant this large amount of
money he will run away with it,
and not come back with it any
more. What a man has done two
or three times iu his life, he wilt
do three or four times more if op-
poitunity is presented. He
blue hair. The papers say that his
appointment was unsolicited, but
I understood he has been running
after the governor tor several
years to get some place. We, in
Galveston, were invited to San
Antonio, and were entertain ; aud
vve, iu turn, invited San Antonio
down there; and we made this
man chief cook and bottle-washer
to provide for the entertainment
of our guests. Well, he furnished
champagne at about $6 a case, and
uncorked It before the guests’ ar-
rived. [He described Ool. Spaight
in a very ludicrous manner, going
ou a fox-hunt; aud after four hours’
ruu intercepts aud shoots the fox
with a double-barreled gun. [My
God ! this man, who assassinates
a fox on the highways, is to write
a history for us.
Mr. Plu inly, interrupting—I
move that the gentleman be allow-
ed to defend himselt from these
calumniations upon the floor of
the house.
Mr. Fiulay—I move that the gen-
tleman trom Galvestou attend to
ois own business. I don’t mean
to culuminate the roan by telling
you that he wears his hair blue,
but mention it only that when you
meet him you will know him.
Now, perhaps, I would not have
had the temerity to make this
speech if he had not run away
trom Sabiue.

A Haven of Refuge.
A young fellow in S in Francisco
suddenly snatched a kiss from a
lady friend, aud excused himself
saying it was a sort of temporary
iusauity that now and then came
over him. When he arose to take
his leave the pitying damsel said
to him : l,If you feel any more
fits coming on, you had ‘ better
come right here where your in-
firmity is known, and we will take
care of you.”

The fancies of the Arabian
Nights are facts of to-day. Last
Monday week a number of labor-
ers laid the last rails of a railroad
which terminated in a broad ami
wild prairie. The next Saturday
night the prairie was doraed with
houses, half a dozen dry goods
stores, as many groceries/a fivery
stable and stock yard, three
blacksmith shops, fourteen or fif-
teen earing houses aud fifteen or
i werity saloons, those great fore-
runners of American civilization,
three hundred people had become
citizens, and the prairie had be-
, come the town of Abeiine. Next

—There is an effort making to
supplant Commissioner Le Due,
ot the bureau of agriculture. It
ought not to succeed. The nation
cannot spare him. He is the most
original man iu the service of the
country. At least he should not
be disturbed until the result of
his last experiment is kuown. He
proposes to raise a June crop of
colr.s from horse chesnuts planted
