Among the steps to ssprogress'
taken by the radicals on assuming
power at Washington, was that of in
Producing women nominally as en-
ployees in the departments. There
are now several hundred of this class
of persons there. During the investi-
cation in the printing bureau of the
Treasury Department several months
ago, it was shown that that branch of
the seryire was in the hands Of profit
gates and prostitutes. Now we have
these disclosures as furnished by a
correspondent of the Rochester Dem
ocrat..
ssThere are seven hundred women or
whereabouts employed in the Treasury.
There are mn
doubted evils connected with the pres
ence of women in the public offices, or
rather the evil is in the mode of APP
pointment to these positions. 1t
would indeed be a surprising thing if
among seven hundred women there
were not some whose characters are
bad The wonder is that there are not
many more considering the way in
which appointments are made, the ten
ure of fayoritism by which the places
are held, the character in far too many
instances of the men in charge of the
divisions in whose duties women are
employed, and the meagre pay which
the sex generally receive.
Il hear of two men holding promi-
nent positions in that part of this great
department where women are employ
ed, who are absolutely dreaded by all
the female employees. Of one of these
it is common saying that no young
or well favored woman can be three
days in the Treasury without being
approached improperly by him, and
the. name of the other has become
scorn among all decent men who know
him. He boasts of the favors his po-
sition gives. A few such men as these,
with corrupt nominations by members
of Congress, are sufficient to give
little color to. the ISLANDERS in circula-
ton against female clerks, as they
are contemptuo usly called" 80
Most of the women employed in the
department at Washington obtain their
places through the influence of mem
bers of Congress. The above revela-
tions lift the curtain sufficiently to show
the relations of all parties in the trans
action. Comment is unnecessary.

last session of Congress, but nothing was so
effeetually vetoed as Indigestion, Dyspepsia,
and their kindred evils by Co.'s DYSPEPSIA

these troubles when the cure is called to the
rescue. Dyspepsia, heartburn, and acidity of

throughout the United States. AS we travel

great relief to the consumptiye.

SYMPTOMS.

The symptoms of Catarrh are at first very
slight Persons find they have a cold. that
they have frequent attacks, and are more sell
sltlve to the changes of temperature. In this
condition the nose may be dry, or slight dis
charge, thin and acrid, afterwards thick and
adhesive, may enSue.
AS the disease becomes chronic: the dis
charges are increased in quantity and changed
IN quality; they are now thick and heavy, and
are hawked or cOughed off. The secfetions
are offensive, causing a bad breath; the voice
thick and nasal: the eyes are weak: the sense
Of smell is lessened or destroyed; deafness
frequently takes place. - 9Sc1
Another common and important symptom of
Catarrh is, that the person is obliged to clear
his throat IN the morning of a slick or Shiny
mucous, which has fallen from the head dIi-
ring the night. When this takes place, the
person may be sure that his disease is on its
way to the lungs, and should lose no time In
arresting It. s4asss 4 -

The special message Of the Ntes

The special message Of the Atesi-
lent, vetoing the District Of Columbia
(sdfrage bill, was presented to the.
Senate on Saturday last, and is before
our readers in full this morning. It
will be read with deep interest, and
will receive the hearty approval of
al lovers of constitutional liberty
throughout the land. A more fragrant
outrage was never attempted to be i'm
posed upon any people; and, i the
veto is not sustained, this bill will
prove the entering wedge that will lead
to other and even grosser innovations.
The President and the Supreme Court
are our only hope to checkmate the
fanatics and radicals who are now seek
ing to overthrow our republican fem
of government.

KEEP TO THE PoMT.-H the anonymous cor
respondent of the Argus who has undertaken
to correct history with reference to the bred
Scott case, in spite of the decision ITSELF is re-
ally a law student, he has many things to learn
Among other things he will learn, if he ever
learns anything, that while an outsiders opin-
ion of what is OF is not the law in case sub
JUDGE is of the least possible significance or ac-
count, the Interpretation of published decis-
ion is not such mystery but that an ordinary
amount Of intelligence will serve to unriddle
it. He will learn also that in respect to great
historical case, like the bred Scott case, it is
not safe to presume upon the ignorance of or
dinarily well informed men outside of the bar
He will learn not to hazard hearsay opinions
concerning the bearing of easily accessible doc
uments without previously consulting them
He will learn, perhaps, that it is useless to try
to escape from the exposure of his errors and
blunders by the path interrogative, or by rails
ing dust of professional cant, as follows
Will the learned pundit of the Press now tell
us when the judicial tribunals have ever re-
fused redress to the negro for wrongs to per-
sons or property, if he sought redress by the
appropriate remedy? Everybody is of course
turneu out of court who seeks redress by other
than the appropriate remedy, as by action on
trespass when it should be assumpsit or of tro-
yer when it should be replevin.
The court decided that negro could not sue
in United States courts at all. 1t is not ques-
ton of appropriate" remedies The court de-
cided that no complaint could be entertained
from descendant of that unfortunate race"
and refused redress to bred Scott for wrongs
suffered in his person, and in the persons of his
family. If the correspondent of the Argus adj
mits this, as he does tacitly, he admits the JUS
tice of the common verdict upon the bred
Scott decision. 1t was simply shocking.

The vote Of the late General Assembly at
Memphis, excluding eolored preachers from Or
'dination as ministers, which excited so general
surprise at the North, is resolutely justified at
the South. A Rev. Mr.. CRAFTY, in commune
cation to the Central Presbyterian, says the
Scriptures do not authorize the oadaining Of
men to preach to one race exclusively, and that
inasmuch as the black man cannot preach to
white men, therefore there is no Scriptural au-
thority for ordaining him at all! And the Pres
byterian Asder, published at Mobile and New
Orleans, and edited by DIR. John II. Rice, q
prominent member of the Memphis Assembly,
comes out with equal holiness in support OF
the doctrine that emancipation has not chang
ed the relations of the two races-that the black
man is a me NAL, and must be kept in a mental
condition if possible. 2 go '-.

The whole number of boys in the State Re
form School at Cape Elizabeth on the 1st De-
cember last was 161, being % less than a year
before. Only two deaths are reported, and no
other grave Cases of disease have appeared.
The industries of the Institution have been
oarie5, Far1.ai.'S oPeratfons have been con-
tinued as usual. A brick yard has been fit
ted up, and has been found quite, profitable
The shoemaking and mending for the school
have all been done at home, and several cases
of brogans and slippers have been sold for full
prices. Straw work has also been introduced
to a limited extent. Work has been continu-
ed in the chair shop, and in the sewing room.
The income from all these sources has been
about $1,000 and is estin lated at $4,000 for the
next year. The Trustees are of the opinion
that gardening should be made leading pur-
suit as soon as possible. With the Portland
market close at hand, gardening ought to be
profitable, while the labor is better suited to
the strength of the younger boys than farm
work or brickmaking. -.--'--...s - q
A very favorable report is given of the
school, the order and attention TO study being
spoken of as particularly noticeable, and the
Improvement such as might be expected un-
der such circumstances. Many of the boys
show strong dispo ition to improve their
leisure by reading, and the Trustees recon-
mend small appropriation annually for i'm
proving and enlarging the library. The Su-
petintendent, remembering the proverb about
all work and no play" advises the construc-
ton of cheap play house in the yard, and
again reminds the Trustees OF the impossible
ity under present arrangements of devoting
sufficient time to the musical education of the
boys. The Sabbath School, conducted by
Portland teachers, is found to interest the
boys. The Portland Bible Society continue
their usual supply of Bibles. ....-
The estimated amount to be appropriated
by the State to meet the expenses of the pres
ent year is $1S,303. ''''
