THE administration of our govern.
ment under this two-thlrds hadicai
usurpation, has been an outrage upon
the people, taking millions OF their
hard earnings and putting it into the
pockets of national blood suckers and
negroes, and preventing the white pop
ulation of the South from doing their
share towards raising the taxes even
for the legitimate expenses OF the gov
eminent. This is grand swindle up
on the people of the North, and they
must remedy it themselves.
The remedy must begin at the ballot
box, by voting for men who are knewn
to be opposed to all the vile Radical
schemes of the day, including forced
negro suffrage, and paying gold to bond
holders where gold was. not promised
Unless we secure Democratic Presi'
dent and q Democratic majority in the
Houses of Congress, We have nothing TO
anticipate but continuation OF the
same ruinous policy, which is actually
destroying the real interests or our
working people. We must nave q
tchange.
Down with the costly Freedmen'ss
Bureaus; down with an expensive and
worse than useless standing army
among our southern fellow citizens;
down with money discrimination
against soldiers, their widows and or
phans, in favor of rich bondholders who
are eating up the substance Of our Ia
borers; down with carpet bag constitu,
lions; dowa with forced negro voting
The white mans supremacy must be
maintained, in order that the negro race
should be properly protected and cared
for. The rights of States must be held
inviolate. The people must rule Con
gress, and not Congress the people
Radicalism must be banished out OF
sight, never to be resuscitated.

Tho Undisputed superiority

OF the medicinal virtues of Rsback's Blood
Pills, Stomach Bitters and Blood Purifier over
all other remedies prepared to relieve suffering
humanity is shown in many ways, but especially
is it evinccdin this important fact: That respon'
sible druggists and merchants all over the coun'
try take active interest in introducing them to
their best customers and friends. while, at the
same time, it is quite rs much to their pecuni.
airy interest to recommend other medicines.
The reason for this is obvious They are in
positions to see the pre.eminent efficacy of the
pills in cases of Liver Complaint and all sb
structions of the bowels and, in fact in all cases
where n cathartie medicine can be employed
While the Bitters, by their gentle tonic, stimu
