Dr. Pierce’s “Pleasant Purgative Pel lets’’ cleanse and purify the blood and relieve tbe digestive organs, A Wholesale Urocryman. Mr. T. D. Meador of the firm of Ogles by & Meador, thinks it is just as import ant the to fortify against the sudden attacks of bowels, as against the robber that invades the household. He says Dr. Bigger#’ Hucklebeiry Cordial is the weapon, a dead shot to bowel troubles. Cotton in the South, Mr. John Hill, chief engineer of the Eagle and Phoenix Manufactur ing Company, had in the last issue of ihe Manufacturers Record an arti cle on cotton manufaenuring in the South. He thinks that the South is the best place for tbe manufacture of tue coaser grade of cotton goods, say up to No. 20 yarn?, and tbe North will hold her position on all above that. ’ Tbe Enquirer Sun commenting on Mr- Hill’s letter, disagrees with him about tbe North's holding a monopo ly of the manufacture of the finer grades of cotton fabrics, and says: Moreover, the Eagle aud Pfcceuix mills ure existing testimony that the finer grades of cotton goods will be successfully made in the South, We are informed that these mills are turniug out every year finer grades of cotton goods than tbe year previ ous. Just where this will stop we do not know. Of course other mills are making tbe same progress. Then is it not natural to suppose that in tbe course of time the South will produce es fins goods as the North! This is the view that presents itself to us, and while ws may be mistaken we think a discussion of the subject by such meu as Mr. Hill would make some interesting reading and bring to light some important points ou the subject. Such a discussion would bo both interesting and profitable.

Manufacturing Stationer. j‘35d<fcwlm BOOMING SHERIDAN THE NEW YORK HEKaLD THE GENIAL GENERAL For Ike Ueputictn Nomination for the Presidency. New York, Feb. 10—The Hem hi prints tbe following: Politicians had much food for discussion yeeter day in tbe dispatch from Chicago that was punted fn the Herald which intimated that there doubt that Mr. Jas. G. Blaine wool be the candidate of tbe Republics party for President. The matte was talked over in many place* where politicians are wont to congrcj gate—in tbe City Hall, in tbe Astor House rotunda, in the Fifth Ave nue Hotel. Will Blaine get the nomination! j Does Blaine want the nomination! If Blaine is not the candidaate will it be Sheridan? were the questions tbe politicians asked themselves and; one another. I don't believe, said Mr. Chnuncy SI, Depew, that Sir. Blaiue will not be the next candidate of the Repub’ beau party for President. In fact I feel pretty certain, too, that he will get tbe nomi nation by acclamation. There wiil be no balloting at all. None will be necessary, for Mr. Blaine will sweep everything before him. Nor do I believe that Mr. Blaine has written a letter to Con gressman William Walter Phelps in structing him to withdraw his name as a candidate whenever he thinks it prudent to do so. Of course I have no positive information on that point, but my inner consciousness tells me Mr. Blaine has not written any such letter. If, however, (Mr, Depew strongly emphasized tbe ii) Mr Blaine has written such a letter, and if he is determined not to be a candi date, then General Sheridan will get tbe nomination and the election. General. Sheridan would make a grand canvass, His nomination would mean hie election. But I still main tain my belief that Mr. Blaine will be the next nominee of the Republi can party, and also the next Presi dent of tbe United States. Mr. Blaine, said ex-Judge Noah Davis, will, in my judgment, which by the way, is not that of an expert politician, be the choice of the con vention, I see no reason why he should not receive and accept the nomination. General Sheridan would, if Mr. Blaine were not the nominee, make a splendid candidate, and would, I am . onfident, be elected. Still Mr. Blaine would be elected too. He would draw to his support all Republicans and many Democrats The fact that be would cause dissen sion in the party and weaken its strength, is unfounded. I don’t know whether he has written such a letter to Congressman Phelps as has been said, but should be sorry to learn that he had. Blame ought not to get the nomi nation, said a gentleman at the Fifth Avenue Hotel last evening. It ought to go to General Sheridan. The Re publican managers must not try to discount the movement in favor of General Sheridan. It is a significant movement, aud will grow with every day that passes. Mr. Blaine's norn ination would mean defeat for the party. The Democrats beat him once, and can do it again. I don't see that Mr, Blaine has done any thing to make him stronger than he was four years ago. He is the weak eat man we've got. When ail so called remedies fail, Dr. Sage’s Ca'arrh Remedy cures.

TOO MUCH GOOD LIKE. If You Find a Silver Dollar, tt Is Cheap¬ er to Let It Lie. “If you ever happen to find a silver dollar in ibe course of your travels, you let it lie right where it is when you see. it,” is the advice of a jolly New York broker. “Coming down on ihe elevated a few days ago,” he continued, “J noticed something wedged in between the basket work seat to the wooden arm. I poked it out with my knife blade and found my prize to be a silver dollar. 1 had never found any money before, and I felt so good that when 1 got off the train 1 stepped into a cigar store and bought lour cigars for a dollar in stead of three for a quarter, as usual. That noon at luncheon 1 felt awful thirsty, and being a dollar ahead, I ordered a bottle of claret. Eater on, bouyed up by the same thought, 1 asked the boys to take something, and the round cost me ninety cents. When it came time to go home the elevated trains were crowded, so 1 thought I’d spend my dollar for a hansom cab and drive home, slop ping at a theatre, where ou account of my find, I bought tickets of aspeo uiator instead of at the office. 1 told my wife about my luck and showed her the identical dollar,which I saved. She was delighted, and insisted upon my having the piece smoothed off on one side and the place ami date of my good fortune inscribed thereon, the carrying out of which conceit cost mo $2,50. Altogether 1 should think my find cost me nearly ten dollars; ao* take my advice, and if you run across any stray dollois. don’t pick ’em up.” Southern and Northern Writers. New Orleans Time* Democrat. Putting sectional bias out of the question, the best may be hoped of the Southern writers, for they dis play a greater energy of imagination and a more ardent coloring than the colder craftsmen of the North. The New England school write with itart ling fidelity of old women and ugiv people, starved lives and stunted aspirations; but in the existence thus depicted there seems to be ncj leaping youth—no laughter or lightness of heart—the spring of hope has run dry. What they have seen they chronicle faithfully; but their chief drawback is a certain shortness of vis ion, a certain dullnest of ear. The splendid distances are t ot for them, or the voice that speaks in the silence. This is the pitfall which threatens tbe Amerioan novelist, Over-Worked Women.

What a happy people wo wjuld be were wc contented with our lot in this life. It is not good policy to worry over unpleasant matters that are unavoidable, whether of social o" business nature, though it is human nature. We are here to take life as it comes, for we are simply the crea tur-’s of circumstance and cannot con trol to our liking surroundings, and if wo are afllicted wc should bear it patiently. It would be best were we so constituted by nature to have pa tienco in all things, hut we are not. If our business affairs are not pros porous, instead of trying to be con tent we fret and complain of the vi > cissitudesof life, and man bacome so involved that they yield either to temptation or allow theirjeason to be dethroned. The struggle com inences at the cradle and ends only at the grave. It is like the rising and setting of the sun upam the inoun tains. The first and last to catch its rays. There is no real contentment in this life, it is impossible. Every heart has its ache aad (» h one knows its own trouble.
