is the only protection against PANIC, as well as
against the PRINCIPLE OF INFECTION.
Why do not those who predict the epidemic pro-

HosTETTER's STOMACH BITTERs.
Remember chat it is specific for all the com

Of deadly epidemics. If you are dyspeptic, it re-
news the vigor of your digestive powers, gives
you appetite, and restores your cheerfuIness. If
you nervous, it inyigorates every fibre of your

it begins to the extremities, where it terminates
IF you are bilious, i discPIines your unruly liver

THE GREAT ISSUE

Whoever favors the. Presidents policy,
wishes to strip the loyal North of twenty-five
members of Congress, to which it is fairly
entitled, and he wishes to give twenty-five
members to the disloyal South, which that
section has no equitable title to.
The figures will stand thus, emitting frac-
tional representatives
Present Northern representation. .......... 14S
Present Southern representation on
ftths basis .................... IS
1t the amendment be not adopted the result
will be as follows:
Northern representatives s.................... 1873
Southern representatives. 90
Ifthe amendment be ratified the result will
be as follows
Northern representatives. .......,.,......... l63
Southern representatives. ......... .........., 70
AT present the Northern majority is ..... 63
If no change in the Constitution is made
the Northern majority, after the next
apportionment, viii be..................... 43
If the amendment be adopted, the North
ern majority will be-. SO
So the question is whether the North is to
have ninety-three, or forty three, majority in
the House of Representatives. If every yvoter
has but one vote, ninety-three will be the
majority. If the Southern voters are given
two votes in consequence of their injustice to
the negroes and their rebellion, the Northern
majority will be but forty-three.
Here, then, is the issue between the Presi-
dent and Congress. The President wishes to
reduce the Northern majority in Congress
from ninety-three to forty-three, by giving
two votes to every Mississippian and Louisi
anian, and three votes to every South Carroll
nian.
If the amendment be not adopted, all the
larger Northern States viii lose two members
of Congress, and some of them will lose
three This is what the Presidents ''policyn
means. The issue is before the people.

Stevens letter is full Of vital interest. 1t

LANCASTER, Sept. Is, 1868.
Hoy. THADDEUs STEyENs-Dear Sir:-As
the question has frequently been asked of me
what effect the success of the Presidents s
Policy of reconstruction would have upon our
National securities, / would like to have your
views upon the subject, if it would not be
trcspassing too mnch upon your time,
Yours, very respectfully,

EoEFFEAPEN 4, 1000.
JoHN GEIGER, Esq.-Dear Sir:-In answer
to your inquiry, what effect the success of
the Presidents views viii have on the Nation
al securities ] am of opinion that its effect
would be very Injurious.
The President contends that the body of
men acting as Congress, has no constitu-
tional powers, and can do no valid acts in
tie absence Of the excluded States The Con
crosses that authorized the war debt and laid
the internal duties to pay it, were composed
Of precisely the same number Of Representa-
tiVes, from the same States as the present.
IF 1T SHOULD BE DECIDED THAT THOSE
CONGRESSES HAD NO CONSTITUTIONAL
EXISTENCE THEN THE 5-2Os, IO-40s.
7-3Os, AND THE LEGAL TENDER GREEN
BACKS WILL HAVE BEEN ISSUED WITH
OUT AUTHORITY, AND WILL BE WORTH
LESS.
Whether they would ever be redeemed
would depend on what the President would
consider constitutional Congress, after the
admission of the rebel representatives, when
the condition of the debts of both oelligerents
would be considered. Yours, truly.
