Having used one of Mr. John T. Buckley's
Auroia Vapor stoves in our family for
u year, we are prepared to say that there is
nothing like it for cummer use. So lady
who does her own work ehould not lie without
one, as there is little or no heat about
it, and it does the same amount of cooking
that n wood or coal stove would do, and at
much less expense, besides being free from
dirt. There is no more danger to be apprehended
from them than fioni a coal oil
lamp.

A Way out of tne Difficulty.
There are so many candidates for the
office of Governor, and the candidnles are
all such t'ood and worthy men that it's hard
to decide between them. We've got a little
plan that it seems will settle the whole
thing; it's this: Give the office to II is Excellency
Luke P. Blackburn again we can't
find a better. Commonwealth.
Well yes, that might help matters some,
but there is a document in existence, cnllcd
the Constitution of Kentucky, which objects
to any such proceedings, and the present
Governor will hardly continue in otlice
longer.thnn the loth of September, and
those who dcsne to secure pinions should
put in their application before that time.
