A scaly Dodge.

That F" the man who talks great deal about
thing he knows nothing about, is apt to
make an ass of himself" is an old and judi
cious saw, and is exactly applicable to the Of
tawa Republican, which contains weekly (er
weakly ..ings at, and pretended criticisms Of
the Pendleton financial plan while the editor
yet shows that he is stupidity ignorant Of what
that plan is, and refuses to publish an honest
statement oft. He gets over our challenge
to insert such statement in his columns in
this way:
"The Free Trader seems to be quite out OF
humor because we happen to take the same view
OF the Pendleton currency scheme that Judge
Cation and Gov. Seymour take. A
soon a. the democratic authorities are able to
agree among themselves as to what the Psndls-
tan plan is. we will enlighten our readers there
In our last we charitably supposed the ed
tor to be possessed Of common intelligence,
and that u wilfully withheld from his read
ers a fair statement of the Pendleton plan.
The above shows him to be really ignorant of
what it is. To say he takes the same view
of the Pendleton currency scheme that Judge
Cation and Gov. Seymour do" is stupid nom
sense 1t is nonsense to call it "currency
scheme" for it proposes no issue or regulation
of the currency; and it is worse nonsense to
talk Of Judge Cation and Gov. Seymour as tax
ing the same view of it. Judge Cation in a
hasty private note, bunderingly alluded to it
as a scheme to dilute the currency, but that
no more made it such a scheme, than the re-
fu.al OF the republicans of the second ward to
elect the editor of the Republican school trus-
tee over democrat, made him an incompe-
tent noodle. Gov. Seymour made no such
blunder. He understood the Pendleton
scheme perfectly, and did not therefore alb
surdly call it scheme to dilute the currency
Ignorance of what the Pendleton scheme is
in an editor, Is as objectionable as to profess
ignorance of what is meant by the tenure-of.
office law by negro suffrage, by the "Wilmot
proyiso," or any other simple question Of pub
lie policy. In word, it is proposition to
withdraw the national bank bills from eircula-
tion substitute in their place greenbacks with
these greenbacks retire $30O,00O,OOO Of $50
bonds, and of the saO,Oco,o 900 Of gold which
the retiring of these bonds would annually
save to the government, together with other
savings that Mr.. Pendleton suggests, to make
a sinking fund with which to buy up our ma
tional indebtedness at its market price ,unil the
debt is eytinguished That is the whole scheme
There is no difference-no dispute among
democrats or any other honest men as to what
the plan Is, no more than there is about what
the word impeachment means, or any other
simple matter that every school boy ought to
understand. We recommend to the editor to
join some juvenile debating club or some other
association where he can get cheap and easy
lessons in the political topics Of the day before
he ventures on further discussion of them.

Mental depression is disease of the nervous
system, and, of all the ills flesh is heir to- it is
the one that evcites the least sympathy. It is
a subject of frequent jests, and is called by var
ious derisive terms; but, although it IS often
laughed at, it is not easy to laugh the patient
out of the belief that his ills are all real,
for 1t is a real disorder-the general features of
which are constant fear, anxiety and gloom.
The external senses, as well as tue men ia |
faculties, often manifest symptoms of darange-
ment. Noise a. of falling water, and ringn &
the Sears are complained Of, while black
specks and fiery sparks frequently fit before
the vision. Admo nitions like these should not
be disregarded, as they may, if neglected,
terminate in insanity. The seat of the disease
is in the brain and nervous system, and .:to
control the malady it is necessary to use a
powerful tonic and alternative, which will cor
rect and tone those organs without inhan1ing
the brain. This is the secret of the success of
HOSTETTER'S STOMACH BITTERS in cases
Of this kind, for which it is the safest as well
as the best of restoratives
In fact it is the only pure and reliable tonic
stimulant known. Many nostrums, purpor-
ting to be tonics, are puffed up from time to
time in the newspapers, but the sufferer had
better let them alone. HOSTETTER'S STOM-
ACH BITTERS has proven itself, by many
years Of trial, to be in every respect whan it is
represented to be: 3lw4

most unanimous vote the Common Council
was recommended to accept it and raise tax

railroad from Sun Prairie TO Madison, and Sc

The road open by the LIST of January.
1t may now be considered as a fixed fact
that the long delayed work will be accomplish
ID Great credit is due the citizens of Mad-
SON on the promptness and energy they have
shown in this matter, and much praise is also
due the St. Paul Directors for the interest dis
played on their part towards prosecuting the
matter to a successful issue. This city has al
ready done her full share in the building OF
