FRIDAY MORNING ......JmHT «. i«W
GEN. GRANT.
Until recently, we harobeen very doubt
Atl whether it waa possible for the distin
guished man whose name heads this article
to obtain tho nomination of the Repub
lican party for the Presidency, or whether,
if nominated, he could be elected. But
our doubts have been removed by the
unanimity with which the Democratic and
Rebel press have opened their batteries of
abuse and vindication against him. They
never abuse or persecute those they do not
fear, and it may be considered a safe indi
cation of their dread of any man when
they make assaults upon him as a public
officer, stfll more when they slander his
private character. Until lately these slan
derers have claimed General Grant as a
supporter of the President, and as such
«a dead cock in the pit,” for they know
that any man suspected of alliance with
the President was politically defunct.
Since the Stanton affair, however, they
begin to perceive what they might have
known before, that General Grant has no
sympathy with disunionists and demo
cracy. Now their tune, in regard to the
General, has completely changed, and they
never speak of him without connecting
with his name some derisive or derogatory
epkhet. If his prospects for the Presi
dency were any way doubtful, this treat
ment would assure it to him, and if the
General were an ambitious man he could
desire nothing else. When those who
wallow in political filth praise and patron
ize any man, it may be set down as certain
that he is wholly or nearly as filthy as
themselves, but when they villify and
malign him, it is just as certain that he is
of a purer material and moves in a higher
sphere.
We hope the traitorous press will con
tinue to slander General Grant; they will
write him into the Presidency just as they
have by the same means made many men
of lower position famous and prominent.
REDUCTION OF TAXES.
It seems to be the fixed determination of
Congress that a portion of the onerous
taxes imposed on the country by the war
of secession, shall be removed, and we are
already informed that a measure has been
adopted as a basis of action for anew
system of taxation, which will reduce the
taxes one-half. Such a measure will do
much to stimulate industry and encourage
production. The Cotton Tax, however,
the most odious of all, will remain un
ohanged, at least until the next crop.
This burden upon an industry borne down
by the changed circumstances of the coun
try, and now struggling for existence, was
most unwisely imposed and continued.
The time may not be far distant when it
will become necessary to offer bounties for
the production of cotton, instead of bur
dening it with taxation. The competition
in the growth of the staple, fostered by a
foolish attempt at disunion, is daily be
coming more formidable, and cotton can
not much longer bear the burden upon its
production, imposed by those whose pro
vince it is to restore the Union.
A DICTATOR.
The Democratic papers pretend to be
very much alarmed lest the country should
become a military dictatorship. Possibly,
with their continual deflanee of law and
attempts at revolution there may be some
daDger, but these very papers, time and
again, during the Confederacy, wanted
Jeff Davis to assume the dictatorship, and
he did so in reality, though not in name.
These same papers are very hysterical
about the rights of. the State. Many a
man can remember how, at the beginning
of the rebellion, the proposition was made
to abolish all State lines, and merge the
whole Confederacy into one central gov
ernment. It was right then to ignore
State lines and State rights; but wrong
now. In oui opinion it was wrong then
and now.

PERKY iTaYIS’
VEGETABLE
PAIN KILLER.
WE BEG LEAVE TO CALL THE ATTEN
TION of tho public to this long tested aDd
unrivalled
FAMILY MEDICINE.
The PAIN KILLER is a purely vegetable
compound; and wbilo it is a most efficient Ken
edy for Pain, it is a perfectly safe medicine, even
in the most unskillful hands, for
SUMMER GOMPPAINT,
or any other form of Bowel Disease in children
or adults. It is an almost certain cure, and has,
without doubt, been more successful in curing
the various kinds of
CHOLERA
than any other known remedy, or even tho most
skillful physician. In India, Africa and China,
where this dreadful disease is ever more or less
prevalent, the
PAIN KILLER
is considered by the natives, as well as European
residents in those climates,
A SURE REMEDY.
Asa Tonic for the Stomach, it is unrivalled.
A few doses will relieve severe cases of
INDIGESTION,
and it is often a perfect cure for
DYSPEPSIA
in its most aggravated forms. Its tonic and
stimulating properties, arousing the system to
vigorous action, render it a most effectual
curs for
COLDS AND COUGHS,
when used according to directions.
For external application, it is unsurpassed by
any medical preparation known.
RHEUMATISM
and Neuralgic Affections are quickly relieved
and of'en cured by it. Any soreness in the
Muscles or Joints can bo relieved by its applica
tion. It cures instantly tho most violent
TOOTHACHE.
It should always be kept near at hand, to be
used in eases of severe
BURNS OR SCALDS.
If applied immediately, according to directions,
it will givo instant relief, and prevont blistering.
It is peculiarly adapted to the wants of
SEAMEN,
and persons making sea voyages, and no vessel
should sail without a supply of it. On* captain
writes us:
“I have made several voyages—often with
emigrants—and though I keep a good medioine
•host, and have several times had a good deal of
sickness on board, I have found the Pain Killer so
efficient in all cases as to entirely preclude the
use of all other medicines.”
One positive proof of its efficacy is, that the
sales have constantly increased, and wholly
upon its own merits. Tho effect of the Pain
Killer upon the patient, whon taken internally
in cases of Colds, Cough, Bowel Complaints,
Cholera, Dysentery, and other affeotions of the
system, has been truly wonderful, and has won
for It a name among the medical preparations
that can nover be forgotten. Its success in re
moving Pain, as an external remedy, in eases of
Burns, Bruises, Sores, Sprains, Cuts, Sting of
Insects, and other causes of suffering, has se
cured for it such a host of testimony, as an
almost infallible remedy, that it will be handed
down to posterity as ono of the greatest medical
discoveries of the nineteenth century. The
magloal effects of the Pain Killer, when taken
or used according to directions, are certain.
You have only to be sure that you buy the
genuine article and adhere to the directions in
Us use, and you will admit its wonderful medi
cinal properties.
Tho genuine Perry Davis’ Pain Killer is now
put up in pannel bottles with the words Davis
Vegetable Pain Killer blown in the glass ; and
with two stsel engraved labels on each bottle
one an excellent likeness of Perry Davis, the
original inventor of the medioine, the other a
steel engraved note of hand—none others can be
relied upon as genuine.
Tbs Pain Killer is sold by Druggists and
Grocers. PERRY DAVIS A BON,
