A Vexations Pilymna. Tt appears from Republican sources sf good repute, be it said, that their party’s Congressional Committee is con fronted with a vexatious dilemma, and much anxiety is expressed as to which horn it will employ to reach dry ground. When that unselfish and exemplary set of statesmen gathered at Washington' the othe, day, one of their number read, for the edification of his fellows, the fol lowing extract from the Civil-service law, it being Section No. 11 of that act. It provides that “no Senator or Repre sentative or Territorial Delegate of Congress, or any officer or employe of either house, and no executive, judicial, military or naval otlicer of the United States, and no clerk or employe of any department of the Government of the United“ States, shall, directly orj indi rectly, solicit or receive, or in any man ner be concerned in soliciting and re ceiving any assessment, subscription or contribution for any political purpose whatever, from any officer, clerk or em ploye of the United States, or from any person receiving compensation from any money derived from the Treasury of the United States ” Then, to emphasize this, the reader followed with setftion 14 of the same law. It is, in substance, identical with the above, but applies to Congressmen, who are prohibited from receiving money or any valuable thing from any officer or employe of the Government. The Committee received these disclos ures with astonishment, but the climax was reached when the next clause was made known. This “section 15,” makes the penalty for the violation of these sections five thousand dollars line and imprisonment in the penitentiary for five years. Profound gloom followed these preg nant revelations. The Committee was not ignorant that such a measure had occupied public attention for some lit tle time, but few had the positive knowledge that it had become a law, with the usual provisions appended. The disposition to tri fie with the meas-. ure was extinguished by the portentous section 15, and the committeemen un consciously put their clenched hands deep down into their pockets, at the same time indulging in a little mental arithmetic as to how many days, hours and minutes were contained in the space of five years. The exhumation of the law, for the benefit of the Committee, was per formed, very properly, by its secretary, Mr. Ed ward McPherson, and as that body is composed entirely of Senators, Congressmen and Federal officials, its sweeping effect will at once be ap preciated. One of the Committee is reported as tersely remarking that the full significance of the Civil Service law did not appear to have been entirely re alized by his party, when the measure passed Congress. According to the Strict letter of the act, therefore, an official who demands money to abet iris party, can safely be housed in a penitentiary. This fate may be in store forthe members of the Republican Congressional Committee unless they return to first principles. The province of the Democratic Com mittee has been confined to the collec tion and distribution of Congressional documents, while their opponents have been devoting their time, exclusively, to the collection and distribution of t hat persuasive little joker which Presi dent Arthur has dubbed “soap.” The case of General Curtis, the first Republican victim of the rigors of civil service, is at once a warning and a men ace. If the measure be carried into force, the Republican National, as well as the Congressional, Committee will have to be turned out, and in their places private citizens will be ensconced, and if this is done what will become of the coming campaign if these important duties are entrusted to uninitiated indi viduals? But Senators and Congress men are not only those who are con cerned, for the law also applies to Fed eral officials who are members of State, county or township political or township political organizations. —Albany Argus. The Reason Why. A Washington writer has discovered a change in the political aspect favor able to the Democratic pat ty. While there has been no recent doubt that the issue of the coming canvass will be favorable to the Democrats, the change which is noticeable to.all may be at tributed to the recent business disturb ances. The Republicans are invoking the aid of business men, representing to them that the interests of business are dependent on their success in the elec tions, yet such transactions as have re- I cently convulsed the business centers are directly traceable to the business methods developed under Republican administration. Recommendation and advice in regard to the elections from a class which has manifested such an inclina tion to run into excesses of speculation and stock gambling, however zealously they may endeavor to boom the Re publican cause, will have rather the ef fect to repel than to enlist popular favor in behalf of the Republican ticket of whatever material it mav be composed. The people have learned that unsound business principles are nurtured by a corrupt political policy. It is recognized that the business methods which led to the recent dis graceful failures have come into vogue since Republican administrations have directed the policy of the Government. They have become to be regarded by the people as the offspring of the loose and dishonest political habits of the dominant party. The knowledge of this fact will powerfully aid the Demo cratic cause in the present contest. The people see so little to induce them to aid in promoting the interest of a class which has made its millions by monop oly and speculations that have been en couraged by tbe Republican party; that when the typical business men of tly? period, the speculators, monopolists and stock lobiers rally to the support of the party under which they have flourished and fattened, the popular impulse is to take the other side. This is a reason why Democratic prospects are improv ing every day, in addition to a deter mination on the part of the people tnat the war taxes and the tariff' tor surplus and plunder must go.

The Republican party which has robbed the country for nearly a quarter of a century, and which has raised up a gang of bold plunderers and dirty tricksters, is at last about to run its craft in the whirlpool of destruction. There is a feeling of uneasiness among the most blatant members the party, and all who have their eyes open see defeat written over the length and breadth of the great corruption party. Reform was the cry in 1876 and Reform elected Samuel J. Tilden. Unfortunate ly for the people, the Democrats were not allowed to seat their President, but the spirit of reform will not rest, and now more than ever that spirit will make itself felt. There is not a man in the Republican party who represents anything like re form. VVe do no tknow who the Dem ocrats will nominate, but we are con fident of one thing, that whoever the candidate may be, he will be a strong man—a man that will in every sense represent the people. And above all he will be a pure man and one that will command the high respect of the whole country. In 1882 there was a great political upheaval. States that were known as Republican gave Democrat ic majorities, It was a tremendous Democratic tidal wave, a victory for the people. The press and the people read ily explained the upheaval by pointing to the desperate methods of the Stal wart Republicans; and every one saw that the people meant to rebuke boss ism. That very year Mahoue xvas vic torious in Virginia, but every where else Boss rule was overthrown. And as the Democrats swept the country in 1882, so they bid fair to sweep out Republican corruption in this year of our Lord 1884. The Republicans had much iniquity to answer for in 1882, but since then the Star-route cases have been added to their foul record, and those terrible scandals, covered up by the “grand old party,” should alone be sufficient to de feat any partisan gang. The old idea, held by a few, that the Republican par ty fostered business enterprise, and kept Wall street in equilibrium, has been ex ploded this year. The fallacy believed in by timid business men that a change of party in the Administration would derange trade, is now having a startling set-back. For could a Democratic Ad ministration make business any more unsettled and depressed than it is? This is a question that thousands of finan ciers and manufacturers who have here tofore voted the Republican ticket for the sake of “expediency” are asking; and the answer is in favor of the De mocracy. The truth is, no party that has set such an ugly example in morality as the Republican party could have other than an unhealthy effect on the public inter ests of the country. With a gang of thieves under the shadow of the White House; with corruption in every de partment of the Government; with treachery rewarded where it should be punished, the present Administration has made a record that no party could carry. There is an easy remedy for the cor ruption of the times, and that remedy is clearly seen by the business men of the country and the masses. The Dem ocratic party will reform the Govern ment; will reform business; will reform public morals. The Republican gang is surely doomed. —liichmond State. Remembered In Platforms. When Abe Lincoln, President of the United States, issued a proclamation emancipating the slaves, it seems to have given the Republican party a bill of sale to the negro vote. Until a very recent period the Republicans have bad a fee simple title to them, and but few of the negro voters seem to have dared assert their political independence. However unreasonable it may appear to suspect that the negroes will go on vot ing blindly as directed by the Repub lican party for all time to come through a mere sentimental fact that gratitude requires they should make themselves political vassals, it seems to be the pre vailing idea among Republicans. The spirit of unrest among the ne groes on political quest : ons shows how affairs are drifting. They have grown tired of being mere voting cattle, and the only thing to satisfy them seems to bo some acknowledgement that they are a part of the Republican party. Every Republican leader knows that it would not do to give the negroes a fair share of the offices, and it will never be done. They attempted, however, to allay the disquiet by electing a few negroes from the South as delegates to the Chicago Convention, but this lias added fuel to the flames. The negro is not satisfied with such empty honors. He has so often been told that lie is just as good as a white man, that he begins to want to see tbe Republicans act upon that political principle. Alas, he will never see it! That there is room for complaint on the treatment they have received from the Republican party, is very true, but they have no one to blame but them selves. They fare much better in the South than they do in the. North. The census of 1880 shows that jfi the ten Northern States named, there are male negroes over the age of as follows: Connecticut .'!,522 Illinois 13,686 Indiana 10.739 Kansas 10.765 Massachusetts 5.55 H Michigan 6,130 New Jersey 10,670 Ohio 21,706 Pennsylvania 23.892 New lork 20,059 Total 127.125 In at least seven of these States the negroes hold the fate of the Republican party in their hands. In only Kansas, Massachusetts and .Michigan is the Re publican majority sucb as to enable that party to let the negroes go. Without the colored vote they have scarcely a fighting chance in several of thes< States, and yet not one of the teP sen a negro delegate to the Chicago Con vention. In not one of the ten is there a negro in a desirable elective office. The greed for place will not permit the blacks to have even a nubbin out of the public crib. There is. however, one thing tbe colored voters may count, on —they are remembered iii the plai forms. Columbus (o a.) Em/uirer. White stockings are coming in fashion aoain for children.— N. ¥. Host. Blankets Made of Cow Hair. “Have you any cow hair to sell?” a wandering buyer asked a tanner in the presence of a reporter, a few days ago. The tanner did have some of the curious commodity asked for, and submitted it to the would-be buyer’s scrutiny. The latter critically examined the lot and offered the owner four cents a pound for it. Wondering what use cow hair could be put to, the reporter sought to sat isfy his curiosity by questioning the buyer. “What do I do with it?” re plied that individual. “I’ll tell you. I first ‘blow’ the hair by a peculiar pro cess which separates the long hairs from the short ones. The long hairs are then woven into fabrics with other ma terial which, upon completion, becomes the genuine all-wool blankets which Uncle Sam presents to the Indians.” “And the shorter hairs?” “They are worked into felting.” “Do you ever pay more than four cents a pound for the hair?” “Oh, yes. White cows’ hair is worth eleven cents a pound.”— N. Y. Mail and Express. Rig Words. It is never well to use big words when small ones will express the same meaning.

CURE OF RHEUMATISM. No. 45 Fulton Market, \ New York City, Jan. 30, 1884. ( I have been a martyr to Inflammatory Rheumatism for thirty years. lam a pro vision dealer in Fulton Market, and the dampness of the place caused my trouble. Standing on the stones, my feet used to swell up almost as big as cushions, then the rheumatism would affect my shoulders and arms. I have tried almost everything, but without avail, until I began using Brandreth’s Pills. The most I ever took was six pills at a dose, and soon as the medicine operated, the pain would begin to pass off. I then took two pills rvevy night for a week, and would be entirely cured for some months, until I had another attack; then the same treatment always cured me. Brandri?th’B Pills never have failed me once. I have been using them for upwards of thirty years. I daily recom mend them, and I lately cured my clerk of rheumatism; he took the pills the same as I did. lam now 72 years old, strong and vigorous, and I am sure Brandrkth’s Pills are the cause. Anybody afflicted with rheumatism can come to mo, and if they will take Brandreth’s Pills, I will surely cure them. C. W. Dyer. No. 3 Fulton M arret, > NjffhVOßK Cite, Jan. 26, 1884. j I have been using Brandreth’s Pills for t>ne last 10 years. They are a wonder ful medicine. There is nothing equal to them as Blood Purifiers and Liver Reg ulators. But I wish to state how remark ably they cure Rheumatism, and how easily: I was affected by Rheumatism of the legs. My business (wholesale fish dealer) naturally leads mo to damp places. I was so bad I could not walk, and at night I suffered fearfully/ I tried Bal sams, Sarsaparillas, and all khuk of tinctures, but they did me no good, tnd I was afraid of being a cripple. I ( uilly commenced using Brandreth’s PhLs. I took two every night for ten sights, then I began to improve; I continued taking them tar 40 days, and I got entirely well. Now, when ever sick, I take IdßAWDßimi’e Pills. They never fail. J. N. Harris. When a man is bent on evil there is gen erally something crooked [about him.— Yonkers Statesman. THE MARKETS.

The loknown Trials Which a Woman Cndured Without Complaint- Why They Vanished. Near the close of one of the most trying of the few hot days of the present year a pale, care-worn woman might have been seen at thp window of her dwelling appar ently in a condition of. complete exhaus tion. Her efforts to meet the accumulated duties of her household had been great but unsuccessful, while the care of a sick child, whose wails could even then be heard, was added to her otherwise overwhelming troubles. Nature had done much for her and in her youthful days she had been not only beautiful but the possessor of health such as is seldom seen. But home and family duties and the depressing cares which too often accompany them had proven greater than her splendid strength and she felt at that, moment not only that life was a burden but that death would be a grand relief. This is no unusual experi ence. It is, in fact, a most common every day occurrence, and a great prayer is con stantly ascending from thousands of homes for deliverance from the deadly power which is enslaving so many wives, moth ers and daughters. And yet these duties of life ihust be met. No woman can af ford to turn aside from the proper care of her home and the ones who are committed to her care, although in doing these duties she may sacrifice her health, and possibly life itself. The experience ot' one who suc cessfully overcame such trials and yet re tained health and all the blessings it brings is thus told by Rev. William Watson, Pre siding Elder of the Methodist-Episcopal Church, residing at Watertown, N. Y. He said: “My wife became completely run down through overwork and care of a sick mem ber of our household, and I entertained serious apprehensions as to her future. She was languid, pale, utterly exhausted, without appetite, and in a complete state of physical decline. And yet she did not, could not neglect her duties. 1 have seen her about the house, trying courageously to care for the ones she loved when I could tell, from the lines upon her face how much she was suffering. At times she would rally for a day or two and then fall hack into the state of nervous exhaustion she felt before. Her head pained her fre quently, her body was becoming bowed by pain and all hope or enjoyment in life seemed departed. What to do we could not tell. I resolved, however, to bring back her life and vitality if possible and to this end began to treat her myself. To my great relief her system has been toned up, her strength restored, her health complete ly recovered and wholly by the use of Warner’s Tippecanoe, which I regard as the greatest tonic, ifivigorator and stomach remedy that has ever been discovered. I was led to use it the more readily as I had tested the health-restoring properties of Warner’s Safe Cure in my own person and I therefore knew that any remedy Mr. Warner might produce would be a valuable one. I have since recommended both Warn er’s Tippecanoe and Warner’s Safe Cure to many of my friends and I know several Doctors of Divinity as well as numerous laymen who are using both with great benefit.” If all the overworked and duty driven women of America could know of the ex perience above described, and act upon the same, there can be little doubt that much of the pain, and most of the depressing in fluences of life might be avoided. Such truths are too valuable to remain unknown. Commerci vl travelers should be very successful in business.

ONE MODERN TERROR Increasing in Frequency and Danger— What Can be Done to Stop the Progress of Kidney and Bladder Complaints? There is no more agonizing class of dis ease, and none more certain “ not to get well of itself,” than the disorders of the kidneys and bladder. Physicians too fre quently fail to recognize what they are, and even if knowing tlvora, lack the skill for their proper treatment. So that they are liable to be allowed to progress until they are almost unendugable, and their victims are made to undergo the most frightful tortures of a surgical operation. The only medicine that does afford speedy relief and permanent cure of such affect ions is DR. DAVID KENNEDY’S FA VORITE REMEDY, (of Itondout, N. Y.) It is not a mere soother, temporarily, of pain; but by its alterative action purifies the blood, restores a healthful condition to the diseased organs, and even dissolves and causes the expulsion of gravel and stone from the kidneys and blaftlder. The testimony of hundreds who have been cured by it vouches for this. If you have weakness, or pain in the back over the kid neys, or if your urine is dark colored, do not delay treatment for a single day, but hasten at once to arrest the progress of the disease by the use of Dr. Kennedy’s FA VORITE REMEDY. Dr. Kennedy as sures the public, by a reputation which he cannot afford to forfeit or imperil, that the FAVORITE REMEDY does invigorate the blood, cures liver, kidney and bladder com plaints, as well as those diseases and weak nesses peculiar to females. “ For Best Window Shade Fixtures.” g —Award Southern Exhibition, 1 Louisville, 1883.
