WEEKLY—Hame rate* as for the Dailv. Every county in New York thus fir reported has favored Cleveland delegates to the St. Louis conven tion. Was ever anything so nnani toons among a population so large, so varied and generally so content ions. It is considered that the nouiina tion of Congressman Matson for governor of Indiana, and of Captain Myers, his opponent, for iientenant governor, moans certain success for the democracy in the state election. The republicans almost concede a democratic victory. Tho partisan Republican press, of coarse, always fines come objection to tba important nominations of the Democratic President, ulthongh it was an exceedingly difficult matter for it to discover anything to say against Mr. Fuller, Mr. Cleveland's selection for Chief Justice. At last however, its vigilance has been re warded, for somo of our alert lie publican contemporaries have learn •d, so they say, that Mr. Fuller was recommended to the President by Republican Senators, notably by the two from Illinois, So far, this is all that has boen said again t tho now Chief Justice. "At no time since tho formation of the Republican party,” says the St. Louis Globe Democrat, “has their been, on tho ove of tho date set apart for tho nomination, rnoro uncertainty ns to who will bo select ed by that organization than there is at this moment.’' Right for oujo. At no time Bince its formation has tho Republican party been so form less, aimless and useless. It is to day without leadership, without prin ciple, without cohesion, and thoroughly demoralized. It lies no pretext for still continuing to lag superfluous on the stage except ibo desire for Bpoils of office, end it can not even agree upon a campaign for tho offices. It is a war party, aud has lived out its time with tho settle ment of the war issues. It has kept alive so l#ug after the war solely by the passions which survived the war, and as tbeso die out a corresponding disintegration of the party follows. Hence the desperate efforts which are now being mado in Congress, in tlie-Republican press and State con ventions to galvanize these passions. Truly tho condition of the party is as pitiable ns it is contemptible. It is still alive, but its vitality is the vitality of a chicken with its head off. A Great Battle •* continually going on in the human system The demon of the impure blood strives to gain victory over victims constitution, to ruiu health, to drag bo the graue.

I suspect the experience portrayed is a personal one; the au tbor intimates as much on page 31. Let mo give you a synopsis: “Malaria” as it states, “is the cloak with which superficial pbysicans cov up a multitude of ill feelings which do not understand, and do not much care to investigate. It is also cover for such diseases as they can not cure. When they advise their to travel or that he has over worked and needs rest and is proba bly suffering from malaria, it is a of ignorance or inability.” “The patient goes abroad. The change is a tonic and for a time be feels better. Conics home. Fickle frequent headaches, severe cramps, sleeplessness, irritabil tired feelings, and general unfit for business are succeeded in time by alarming attacks of which flits about his regardless of human feelings. “It is muscular,—in. his back.

Ills fortune has all gone in fees. But lam, what becomes of him? The other day a well known Wall Street banker said to me “it is really astonishing iiow prevalent bright’s disease is becoming. Two of my per sonal friends are now dying of it. But it is not incurable I am certain, for my nephew was recently cured when his physicians said recovery was im possible. The’ case seems to me to be a wonderful one.” This gentle man formerly represented his govern tnent in a foreign country. He knows, appreciates and declares the value of that preparation,because his nephew, who is a son of Danish Vice Consul Schmidt, was pronounced in curable when the remedy, Warner’s safe enre was begun. v “Yes,” said his father. “1 was very skeptical, but since taking that remedy the boy is weli. I happen to Know what it was that cured the boy, for Gen’i. Christian sen, of Drexel, Morgan & Co’s., told mo that it was that “wonderful reme dy Warner’s safe cure.' Well, 1 suspect the hero of the book cured himself by the same means. I cannot close my notice better than by quoting the author’s advice. “If, my friend, you have suck an experience as 1 have portrayed, do not put your trust in physicians to the exclusion of other remedial agon They have no monopoly over and I personally know that many of them would far prefer that patients should go to Heaven from their powerless hands it.an that they should be saved lo by ihe use of any “unuulhoriz mean*.” Snbsetibe for the News Be Sure to Cet Hood’s Sarsaparilla, my child.

In the realm of disease the facts of Ii> herit&nce arc most numerous and arc dail/ accumulating. !>ro, alas, they become ter¬ rible, fateful .a: >-nr helming. No fact of nature is nu r alit with awful mean- lag than the f the Inheritance of disease. It me - physician on his daily rounds, paralysing Lis art aud filling him with dismay. The legend of the ancient Greeks pictures the Furies as pursuing families from generation to generation, rendering them desolate. The Furies stilt ply their work of terror and death, but they are not now clothed in the garb of supentl- tion, ijotlts but appear in the more Intelligible but awful form of hereditary disease. Modern science, which has illuminated ro many dark corners of nature, has shed a new light on the ominous words of the Scriptures, “The sins of ihe fathers shall bo visited upon the children unto the third and fourth generation.” Instances of hereditary disease abound. Fifty per cent, of cases of consumption, that fearful destroyer of fami¬ lies, of cancer and scrofula, run in families through inheritance. Insanity Is hereditary In a marked degree, but, fortunately, like many other hereditary diseases, tends to wear itself out, the stock becoming extinct. A distinguished scientist truly says: “No organ or texture of the body is exempt from the chance of being the subject of hereditary disease.” Probably more chronic diseases, which permanently modify the structure and functions of the body, are more or less liable t«> bo Inherited. Tho important ami far-reaching practical deductions from such facts—affecting so powerfully the happiness of individuals and families and the collective welfare of the nation—are obvious to reflec¬ ting minds, and tho best means for prevent¬ ing or curing these diseases is a subject of Intense interest to all. Fortunately nature has provided a remedy, which experience has attested ns infallible, and the remedy ia the world famous Swift’s Specific, a pure vegetable compound -nature's antidote for ail blood poisons.
