We are informed that the Tennessee delegation
have engaged rooms for thirty at the Charleston
Hotel In order to secure the rooms the delegation
had to agree TO pay for them from the 18th Of April
As the Convention does not assemble until the 2Sd
it is probable that our delegates viii not get to
Charleston before the 2lst. So that they viii have
to pay for their rooms for six days before they
use them. This at 81 apiece per day viii amount
10 $500, OF sl47O that our delegates viii have to
paw for the privilege of securing their rooms. If
they ony have to pay s. apiece per day, as some
reports say. their rooms viii cost them but $500
before they enter them. Charleston certainly has
abandoned the idea Of getting Southern custom for
her Wholesale dealers.

New Hampshire Election.

The New Hampshire Patriot CDemOcratic) thus
speaks of the recent election in that State:
We have neither time nor inclination to comment
upon this unexpectedly decisive victory Of our OPP
p0nents That can be done hereafter That we
confidently expected a more favorable result, our
readers well know. and we freely confess our dis
appointments But we are not discouraged and we
hope the Democracy viii not be. The Presidential
election in November next viii present an Opportu-
ntv for the redemption of the State and they should
begin u0Jr the preparation for that great event.
The Cincinnati Gazette BLACK Republican, COM
ments on the same election as follows (We tchcise
one seutence)
The Granite State has done more than Stand fast
She has gained upon the Republican majority she
cave in 1859. Then Mr. Goodwin's majority was
1924: now. it is 1895. Ten Of the twelve State
Senator's are Republicans, and the Republican ma
iority in the House is eighty-five
Considering the extraordinary efforts made by
the Democrats 10 carry the State this year this re
suit is very cheering Il SboCs that the people Of The
North 40 not reirQce their steps. 1t shows that free
labor In the States sympathizes with and will defend
free labor in the Territories. II shows, TOO, the
value of organization and systematic work for
through these only was the large Republican vote

Scrofula, or Kings Evil,

Is constitutional disease corruption of the blood,
BY which this fluid becomes vtiatcd. weak. and
poor. Being in tho circulation, it i,erva,os the
whole body. and may burst out In disease on any
part Of it. No organ is free from its attacks. nor
is there one which Il may destroy. The scrofu-
ous tant is variously caused by. .mescural disease
low living. dsordercd or unhealthy tood. impure
air. filth and filthy habits, the depressing vices.
and. above all, by the venereal infection. What
ever be its origin, it is hereditary In the constu-

third and fourth generation !" indeed, it to

iniquities of the fathers upon their children
Its effects commence by deposition from the

although not scrouous in their nature, still

the consumption which decimatcs the human family
has its origin directly in this scrofilo contamna-

from or are aggravated by the same cause.
