I have some work to do there and am also willing to gratify some of my kind contemporaries who have displayed so much interest in my personal affairs and so much curiosity regarding my return from New York a year ago and the causes for it. Thev mav fie interested and will possibly be pleased to know that I am going back to my old plaae on The Times and could have done so any time the last twelve months.

Washington, May 17.?Register Lyons says he is glad to see the newspapers are exposing the scheme to lleece ex slaves by the promise of pensions. He says he has received hundreds of letters from colored people from all parts of the South and Southwest asking him what chance there is for such a pension scheme going through Congress. He has invariably replied that there is net the slightest possibility of such a law passing Congress, and the promoters of the scheme know full well that the bill, which has been regularly introduced each session, is a bastard measure presented "by request," because the member introducing it declined to be responsible for it. lie says he has advised his people not to contribute a cent to such a barefaced swindle, and not to waste two cents for a postage 6tamp to communicate with the promoters of the scheme. He knows of a number of instances where col ored people have been induced to subscribe to the registration position, and also tor the charter privilege. In one little town in Georgia over two hundred victims were caught for twenty-five cents each. Register Lyons says thero ought to be some law against such a transparent imposition on the credulous colored people of the country by design ing men.?News and Courier.

Before the discovery of One Minute Cough Cure, ministers were greatly disturbed hy coughing congregations. No excuse for it now. Crawford Bros. What are vou doing to improve the road? How is the road in front of your house? i Horses should have good roads. ' Motor vehicles must have. We should never tiro speaking a good word for the broad tire.
