The following is from the New York correspondent of the St. Louis Republic: ‘‘Perhaps it was the knowledge that the New Year promised storm and stress for Tammany, which prcmpted Richard Croker to secure the appointment of Hugh O. Pen tecost as an Assistant District At torney of New York County at a sal ary of j'jar. “Mr. is an erstwhile George and be -o*' t| t ■Jr ifeiprofur ’i” l ’ nt 1 rv!l ". v a! • There to keep up the longer, and it will pass along with its twin humbug, the “Bureau of American Republics.” —The Nation. The business and financial troub les ot the leading South American countries and of the States have had a marked effect in check ing emigration from Europe during the past two years. From tables lately published by the chief of the Italian statistical bureau, it appears khat a decline in emigration is to be BL in its returns from Great Bri- tain and Germany and Italy—that is, the great fountains of emigration. The falling off was greatest of all in Italy, in 1892, and it is no doubt true that the present distress in Italy is intensified by the fact that some 70,000 Italians who, under ordinary circumstances, would have found work abroad, were kept at home to swell the numbers of the unemploy ed. This is only one of the ways in which the business dependence of one country upon others is shown.— The Nation. The burdens of rulership must seem heavy to Mr. Croker in these dais, says the Nation. With be tween fifty and sixty of his deputy sub-assistants under indictment and arrest for cheating at the polls; with Dr. Parkhurst in pursuit of the Police Department with such a very sharp stick that all the police captains as w«ll as the police com missioners are kept dancing with uneasiness all the time; withone police captain under the indictment and another in danger of a similar fate in the near future; with one police commissioner convicted by the Times of having been a default er in Buffalo before he was brought govern us; -i. ■klgsi<mer Jt" ’.L' '■Fin la«t sir.i bij's moral which I reg rut ted much, >«•. Ven say truly, ■HraHSHn God is written 1 over last HQHBRi beginning to end. Whether in ■■li, or in ihelove that chasteneth, we ■fy not say.” I really feel that we could say; and your other outspoken leader on “Jail Deliveries” is an answer in part. All good government is or dained by that same God whose hand you so fitly is written, etc. The miscarriage of the laws made by such a government/cannot but be disp easing to bim, surely. But when this miscarriage becomes a rule and the right and just ad ministration becomes the exception, whatareweto expect? Not that that hand is lifted unto us “in the love that cliasteneth.” This jail breaking, and ,tbis exemption from the just punishment for crime are becoming so frequent that the law is losing that sacredness that ought always to surround it, and its de cisions are being stripped of that rever ence that ought to cling to them. The empires of old crumbled from like causes. Let us pause, we are not more divinely hedged. Each such case as you mention, and even minor.ones, cost the already heavily taxed people of each county thousands of dollars —a tax im posed to attain the ends of justice, but which, ss you well know, only too frequently attains the op- THE HOME TRIBUNE, WEDNESDAY MORNING, JANUAKY 3. 18b4 ; posite. We are all believers in divine retribution, and as such we must expect this injustice to recoil upon 1 us sooner or later; and the press and the - pulpit and the powers of the city, state or nation that wield not their influence against such, become accessories to tho injustice, and cannot expect the hand of God lifted toward them in “that love that chasteneth.” i A jury is sworn to try a case—that is in plain words each member of that jury calls upon this God, in whose hands are ' our destinies, to witness the truth of what they are to say, or the justice of • what they are to do. They render their verdict; we must presume always in ac. cordance with the solemnity of that ter rible responsibility that hangs over them. But see how this verdict is twisted and turned by appeals for new trials; by ap plications for commutations of sentence, etc. Now, what do commutations amount to? What is “imprisonment for life,” in most cases with us but a few years. I might carry on the same rea soning with regard to the technicalities , by which people are helped out of pay ing their just debts, and iu all I would be only showing that we were simply sowing the winds of which we are bound to reap the whirlwinds, whether in cy clones, tornadoes, earthquak s or floods. Let ue not deceive ourselves—God is not mocked, His inspired apostle assures us. If, as holy writ tells, “the sins of the father shall be visited on his children to the third, and even to the fourth genera tion,” what assurance have we that the mal-administration of the laws through our connivance may not follow iu the same ratio.

Frank Roadsoii of ■Ke lived -.villi a sixpenny nail in her ■■Fl. Remarkable as this story may it is nevertheless true, and Mrs. who is in her fifty-ninth year, will recover from this terrible ordeal. About eight weeks ago a physician was called to see her, she being apparently suffering from paralysis or some kindred trouble. One side seemed deadened, and no amount of will power on her part could cause normal action. Electric bat teries were applied repeatedly, and ef forts were made to induce the paralyzed nerves to act once more, but with little avail, until the physician, thinking per haps better results might be attained, or dered her thick hair cut off. She objected, but it wap done, and on examination a sore spot was discovered ■with the head of a nail imbedded there in upon the very crown of her head. An operation was performed, and to the surprise of the physicians present a six penny nail 2 inches long was removed. It had penetrated straight into the brain its full length, and an abscess had formed upon the brain because of its presence there. Two days later another operation was performed, the abscess was removed, and the patient is getting along -well, apparently about to regain full control of her muscles. The most remarkable part of this strange story was the discovery of the cause of its being there. At first she stoutly denied any knowledge of it being there, but at last admitted that she had herself driven the nail into her skull, pounding it down .with a stone, for the express purpose of ending her life. Phy sicians say this is the most remarkable case on record.—Topeka Special to St. Louis Republic. Prior to 1657 tea was sold in England for SSO a pound.

But properly arranged they make a word familiar to the civilized world —a word that stands for all that is pure, energetic, and effective in medicine. Think of it. From a small beginning, against prejudice and opposition, against ' monied hosts and trade indifference Cuticura has become the greatest curative of its time. No power on earth could bar its prog ress‘because it did its appointed work. In every clime and with every people it has worked wonders. Its cures have approached the mir aculous. $5,000,000 Have been expended in advertising it. But $1,000,000,000 Could not purchase the daily com mendations of its grateful friends. Such praise cannot be purchased. This is the secret of its success—of its world-wides opularity— of its won derful sale—of its constant growth. It is stamped upon the hearts of the once tortured, disfigured, and hu miliated everywhere, never to be effaced while life shall last. Such in brief is ii ii ni: ■. .•. pgsa '-1 ~ r ~ ’ T w!
