Effect Of the present Wing Policy

All the signs of the day Indicate thar
the wings are resolving to delay, fno'
defeat the measures intended tc
strengthen and sustain our arms in
Mexico. The leading wing organs
the National IntelIigencer at their head
-exhort the party to such a COURSE
The burden of wing speeches in both
houses is in the same direction. The
call for Mr.. SlidelI's instructions, and
the fear that the war is to destroy the
nationality Of Mexico, are harped upon
as the pretexts for defeating the war
measures recommended by the admin.
istration, and among them, the ten.reg.
iment bill.
With regard to this bill, we believe
that no man has yet risen to say that,
in his judgment, if passed it would not
tend directly to bring the war more
speedily to a close. No one asserts,
whatever may b, the opinion as to the
suficiency Of our army now in Mexico
to maintain its ground, that it can 90 on
as vigorously and rapidly to compel a
satisfactory peace, without this propos-
ed aid as with it. No one seriously de-
MES that the president has called for
tile best description offorce to effect hat
object. This point is settled by the unan.
imous judgment Of our military men,
prompt as they all are to proclaim the
unsurpassed valor Of the volunteers up
on the battlefield. Any substantial
oppositionito this bill, therefore, can
rest only upon the ground of a general
opposition TO the further and efficient
prosecution of the wal to attain its o D.
jects.s Upon this.ground, therefore, it
has mainly been placed. oR
From the fesponsibility0oft issue
before the people-irrevocably deter
mined, as the people,are 10 have p,eoce
and indemnity from Mexico with the
least possible deIay--the wings cannot
shield themselves under the pretence
that, If the war be carried on with the
fullest yigor to its close,the nafionnlitp
efMsrico must be destroyed. The Pres
ident is opposed to such a result. He
has disclaimed the idea Of a permanent
occupation sof the whole of Mexico
He has declared his opposiionato5 the

which states that the Government is do.
ing all in its power to get the new Con.
gress together. II is believed il will
assemble about the middle of January.
The fate Of the country is represented
as being in its hands. The pronuncia-
mento had notiakcn place; the chiefs
and leaders not being disposed to take
part in the. new disorder. The writer
appears to think, that however great
the difficulties which beset the Repub.
lie, they are nothing in comparison
with those which would follow a ter
mination ofthe war. Parties, then. he
adds, will have time to take breath be-
fore commencing with greater violence
those fratricidal %dissension, which has
reduced the country to the condition in
which it is now placed. He attributes
whatever want Of energy has been ex.
hibited BY the Government to the anar-
chicaI and disorganizing course Of some
high fnnctionaries. and principally of
certain military chciftains, who have
been harrassing the Government while
threatened with invasion.-Am. Star.

a very respectable mercantile house, dated
Washington, Rappahannock Co., Va,
May 26, 1916.
DR.. d. Jayne,-Dear Sir,-Our Mr.. Jones has
been in a very low state of health for more than a
year; he has had the benefit Of the best medical adj
vice our country affords, and also visited your city
during last summer, but found no relief. On the
18th OF April last, we purchased half a dozen bot
ties of your ToNIc VERMlrUGE, and a half dozen
boxes of S Pills. Through carelessness
in packing The articles in a dry goods box, one half
the Vermifuge was broken. Mr.. Jones common
ced with the Pills, and after taking a few doses,
felt a decided improvement. The three bottles OF
Vermiiuge, which ame safe to hand, brought from
him. he thinks not less than ONE THOUSAND
WORMS, and perhaps many more. He is now In
better health than he has been for many years, and
we hope a few more bottles of your Vermifuge and
Pills will effect a permanent cure. All our phys
icians have entirely mistaken his case; Prof Sam
uel jackson, OF your city at the head. Mr.. Jones
is most anxious to get more ofyour Pills and Verm-
Huge, as socn as possible. Respectfully,
J. b. JONES s. CO.

annual report Of the MI. Hope Institution
for the Insane. by DR.. w. II. Stokes, he
says, in respect 10 moral insanity:
Another fertile source of this species Of
arrangement has appeared TO be an undue
indulgence in the perusal Of the numerous
works of fiction, with which the press is
prolific Of late years, and which are sown
broadcast over the land with the effect of
vi,iating the taste and corrupling the morals
Of the young, Parents cannot TOO cautious
ly guard their young daughters against this
pernicions practice. We have had several
cases Of mural insanity, for which no other
cause could be assigned than excessive nov
ell reading. Aud nothing is more likely to
induce this disease than the education
which fosters sentiment, (instesd of cher
shng real feelng-such as result from the
performance Of active beneyolence, the sa-
cred duty Of ordinary life. md Of religious
obligalions) y which awakens and strength
ems the Imagination without warming the
heart, and to borrow the language Of an ell
oqueni divine, places The individual upon
romantic theatre-not upon the dust OF

CANNOT TELL A LIE.-In the war Of
the Revolution, while Gen. Lafayette com
handed the American army, par, of the
troops were eBcamped near the waters
edge. One summer eveninga soldier, who
was an excellent swimmer as well as hfer,
took his fife with him TO the water. and en-.
gagged in hhng and swimming at the same
time. The music reached the ear Of La-
fayeiie. Early the next morning he sent an
officer in pursuit Of the man who had thus
disobeyed the orders of the camp. The sol
der was a man from Connecticut and
man Of truth. When arrested by the off.
Ger, he considered that, perhaps, he might
escape a severe punishment by denying
the deed. On \ moments reflection, how

He camo al the appointed time. The
general then informed him, that the tune
which he had heard the evening before al.
fecied him very much-that on former
occasion it had been played at the funeral
Of dear friend OF his. who had died in his
native country. Since then, until now, be
