A Non-Partisan Paper on Secession.

For those journalists North who have
no word of conde u alton, but who ap-
pear to chuckle at the form alton of a
Southern Confederacy and who make the
most prejudiced comparisons between its
executive officers and those about to take
charge Of the government of the United
States. We have the greatest contempt
An article has recently come under our
notice, copied appovingly into several pa
pers, which shows that there are a num-
Der of base partisoD editors at the North
who prefer the South to the Union unless
their party eau be 10 power and they have
chance at the stealiugs. We care not
to what party he may belong, the man
who does not stand up for the Union and
condemn all attempts at dividing it but
rather rejoices that the will of the people,
exercised in a constitutional manner, is
attempted to be tbwarted by faction, is
a vile traitor at heart and should be des-
pissed by all true men, If there is one
cause which, more than any other, has
led to our present troubles; it is partisan
bitterness, and this bitterness leads large
lumber of writer's still to continue their
vindictive assaults, when nothing can be
gained by them but much lost The
present moment is time for mutual for
bearaDce.
In the article above referred to the
writer thus gorifes JEFF. Davis awhile
Abraham Lincoln was in Congress criti-
cising the motives which led to the Mex.
loan war, and endeavoring to define the
spot where it was commenced, Col, JEFF
ferson Davis was gallaDtly fighting bis
country's battles in the hottest fields of
Mexico" The writer must remember
that once the devil was an angel of light,
and jeff Davis, though, like Arnold, once
hero and patriot, is DOW traitor
We believe 10 calling things by their right
names, and we must therefore say, that
Davis, in taking the oath as President Of
the Southern Confoderacy, perjured him

things.
This Southern secession business is a
vile scheme Oh the part of disappointed
Office seeking deuagogues, and the people
of the South are honestly, but blindly,
following them Let the leaders be shown
up in their true colors, and the people will

Diptheria an Old Visitor in New Eng
land.

The throat disease, now known as Dip
iberia, is said to be an old disease With
a new name. The word is from Greek
word signifying skin. and should be SPELL
ed dipbtheria, aud not, as it usually is,
diptheria. The disease visited this coun-
try as long ago as 1897, and ragged sith
great violence. We fnd, says the Port
land Transcript, in Parson Smiths Jour-
nal, frequent notices Of its ravages in this
region. Under date of October 81, 1887
be says fast was held on account OF this
throat distenper. 1t was an epidemic,
and comue nciDg at Kingston, N. H.,
spread through New Hampshire and
Massachusetts,. and was two years in
reaching the Hudson river. In New
Hampshire not less than one thousand
persons fell victims to this u alignant dis
temper, and in Boston four thousand per-
sons bad the disease, aud one hundred
and fourteen died. In May, 1897, Par
son Smith mentions that seveDty-fve had
died Of it in this town. Under date of
October l3, 1887, he says-"This is still
bad at Scarborough. No one has lived
that has bad it of late" 1t was the uost
fatal scourge that ever visited New Eng
land, aDd rapidly hurried its subjects to
the grave; the throat swelled. became
covered with -colored specks. great
debility and prostration eDsued, with pu-
trefaciion. Under the improved methods
of treatment of the present day, it is less
fatal.

HEALTH OF AMERICAN WOMEN.

Female Irregularities. weakness, uterine displsee
nents, and all local uterine difficulties and consttu
tional troubles of women are entirely cured by the
GrRfsnberg Msrshal's Uterine Ca.holicOn.
In this connection, Miss Beecher, sister Of the
Rev. Henry Ward Beecher, in Letters 10 the People.
page 1923, says:
81 have nine sisters and sisters-in law, and four
teen female cousins, all married and all delicate and
ailing. Amid the immense circle OF my frienss anu
scquaintances, 1 canEot recall ten married ladies'
born in this century and country, who are perfectly
healthy"
In cases, however. where the Grafenberg Csthol-
con has been used. we must say that health has rap
idly taken the place Of disease, and ladies have be
come robust, strong, vigorous and healthy.
Mrs Gleason, of Elmira, says: "Beautiiul,indeed-
Is the conhding trusting nature Of woman, nut how
much does it need to be protected by a waIchfulness
that will lead her in time Of disease to appeal to !
medical adviser Of scientific education, moral worth
and purity of character"
All these may be occurred by addressing the ersf-
enberg Company.
