Mr. IS. M. Stabler, .Payne, Ohio, writes : "I had catarrh of the head. ) trie*) a local catarrh remedy and It did mo no good { I tried two dif ferent -catarrh snuffs and they" did me no good | I-trted -a jesftarrb balm ? and it did me n$ goaf; I tried a ..Foclu Wayne doctor and he did me no good. I gave thela all up, for they were doing roe no good. All they were after waa my money, and they got it, and that was all thev wanted. Then I got a Pe ru na Al imibc* 1 ttM rM I through id ?*ir,-that Tho Mayoralty, It was staled a few days ago that there would be sevoral candidate* for Muyor of Camden in tho coining pri mary election. Those who wero pro ?. inonilv spoken of for tho position wore Mayor Zemp, Messrs. J|L R. Goodalc, A, I). Konuedy, H. K. Hatoail, W, A So'?rock and 1) E. flinsou. The Chronicle nought an in. terviejjK%ith each of these gentle. irtCVrlo get from thorn their vipws rupon matters ?f public .Importance which might serve .hh an outline to the policy they would pursue if eject O'l. It seems, however, that up h> this timo Mayor Zemp and Mr. ^ oh rock arc tho onlv avowed enndi dates in tho field. Mayor Zemp was tho first seen and his card below speaks for itself : To The Citizens of Cam den: I announce myself a candidate for ro-eleotion to the office of Mayor, and I do so in order that I may be al lowed to vindicato my administra. tion and prove to tho public that we aro right in the statement we made that the purchase of lights and wa. ter wcVuJd only cost tho citv about H| mills additional tax. To day 1 will go farther and say wo can not only keep* np the city; with its lights and water, but wit h tho past twej years as a guide, we will organ ize, equip and maintain a first class reel company with horses for that amount.. During the past year more and bettor work has boon dono on tho streets than for Several years previous, and by careful manage tnent we have a good surplus on hand at t';e end of the yoar. While tho Tj ?o usurer's report, shows a sale^of $2,500 in bonds, it also shows $3.1 10.17 paid out as in terest, notes and bonds redeemed, etc., of which amount only $950 properly belongs to tho yearly ex penses. Rospectfully, F, Leslie Zemp, Mayor. . Mr. Ilinson was next seen and he stated most imphauenlly that lie had never entertained the least idea whatever ot'entoring tho raco. Capt. UalsaU said that ho bad been spoken to by soveral to enter the race but hie private biiRines* would prevent him from doing ro. Capt. Halsall spoke in the most com plimcntary terms of all the prospee t.ive candidates and especially of Mayor Zemp whom he said be thought l\ad made a very good May or. ' Mr. Kennedy reoeived *us most pleasantly and said that he had been spoken to to run, but up to this timo he had not made up his mind to do so; if be deolded to enter the race he would most oheerfully glvo to the press his views upon matters of pub lic importance. He would not bo in the raco for any scramble for ibo office. Mr. Goodale spo^e along the aanie line as did Mr. Kennedy. Ho said he would not go into ony scramble for tbe plane. Mpf Pcbroek sai(J | Yes, I am a candidate for Mayor. Von want to know what will be my polity if elected? Well, my ejfper* ienoe a* an alderman has given me a prett* fair idea I think of what polioy a ay or should pursua and we might |im? tt up something like thlst I ? Economy {n conducting and perfecting aeaessary improyeijf^nts for the benefit of the pity. Hrr- Liberality in appropriations for keep ng qp our stjreet ftnd tygijr ing perfect drainage. 3?rA rigid supervision of the po lice department. - - 4^? Strict impartiality in presiding over the Mayoralty court. 5 ? Encouragement to "the boie" n organising an efficient fire depart ment. \ This, as yon^eee is not a platform by which the Mayor Is bound to sub stitute the word ''stinginess" for 'loeonomy/' or "waste" fyf JMi^erali tjfJ' Neither does it mean that con* tinual fault-floding pljall constitute ' a ritoid supervision of tho polioo de partment" - It sirnpty means Just what it says, sod by it I enter the race for Mayor to ifin or lose as tbe yoters shall elect Before you close this iptprview however there is one thing I should tlko to have attention called to, an<t that is the reoently published peport of our Clerk and Recorder. Some people sre felicltatlngHhern selves that the city Is in grcfct shape because we have in (he treasury $2,667.28 for which there is no fq} inpjiafe need. JMeaso to $t>te that on Jan Jst, JB97, there was in the treasury the sow of $163.29, and that dnrinpr that year there, w^s re ceived 82,500. from a bond sale ou which amount we are payinz sit par cent interest. We thus find $2,. 663.32 which when deducted from that in the treasury, leaves the m*g? nificent total of $4.00 as the salvag* for twelve mouths.

There was ?% Christmas tree at Malvern Hill chapel for the Chil dren of the Sunday school on the evening of Dec. 31st, ult. Tho tree was nicely arranged. Mr. (Jor dan loaned sopje pretty little fairies and candles for the occasion, and when these were placed on the tree tho effect was really beautiful. There was a table on each sido of the tree which held the presents ? which were tfiany and very appro 'prlate and the children were delight ed.
