Lo,nl,r Care,h for il. Own.

Whatever else may be said of the
Radical party, there is no questioning
the fact that it gives substantial en-
couragement to prominent representa-
tives of its leading ideas. Ia matters Of
morality, for instance, where seduction,
divorce, murder, and other diversions Of
like nature are involved, that party has
taken positions, with which most of our
readers are familiar. They are illus
trated by General COLE, who shet HIS
COCK for seducing his wife, and was &C
quilted on the ground of temporary in
sanity, and by Mrs. ABBIE SAGEtMCFAR-
LAND RICHARDSON, who, while yet unab-
solved from her marriage vows to her
first husband, entered into, at least, an
engagement with another man, and then
under an Indiana divorce, which
New York don't recognize as legal, mar
ried the man of her unholy choice.
These representatives of the laxness of
moral ideas prevailing in the GoD-and-
morality party are being taken care OF
by their friends. COLE has clerkship
in the Washington Postoffice, at $4,000
per annum. Mrs. MCFARLAND is to
have charity fund raised fer her, and
q place on the editorial staff of the
Tribune, and q sinecure in the New
York Sub. Treasury. Never have l seen
the loyal" forsaken, nor his seed beg
glng bread.

supplying vegetable tonic and Alternative is the
preparatory medicine I. required, and among
medicinal agents Of this character, HOSTEL
TIERS STOMACH BITTERS stand supreme.
In successful career of nearly quarter of q
century, the preparation has never been equal
led or approached, and its sales are now larger
than those of any half dozen articles, purport-
ing to belong to the same class, that has ever
been advertised in this country. As remedy
and preventive of DYSPEPSIA, and all its CON-
plcations, it may be said to have bred dOtcn
competition and TO be the standard specific of
the Western Hemisphere. A course Of this
genial restorative at the commencement OF
Winter is the surest safeguard against all the
complaints which are caused or aggravated by

The Pre.iaent,. Mess a &c.

We surrender large portion OF eur
space this morning to the Presidents
message. This is chiefly for the benefit
of our country readers, those within the
city limits having been supplied by the
REGISTER extra, issued yesterday. In
deed, we had the pleasure of furnishing
this document to the Wheeling public
generally, our city contemporary not be-
ing able to get the message out in time
to meet the demands Of its own readers.
Those who expected to receive . copy
from the Intelligenoer yesterday are re-
spectfully informed that they were ask
ing entirely too much from our slow
paced nsighbor. If they drop into the
Quincy street Office some time this at
ternoon, they may possibly find the
message nearly ready to be issued.
This thing of leaving our 'enterpris-'
ing" neighbor completely in the shade
in the race for public favor, is so much
q matter of course with the REGISTER
that we would not now refer to it, had
not the Iatelligeacer in rather oonse-
qaential manner intimated purpose to
distance competition on the message
question. Five or six of our boys hap
pening to hear that the Intelligencer had
about a regiment of hands at work to
get out an extra, concluded to see if
some things could not be done as well
as others. They think it likely.
For the present we forbear comment
upon the Presidential paper. To some
of its points we may refer hereafter.

The Sugar Crop.

The Southern sugar crop will be light
The estimates of last Summer were en-
tirely too large. 1t was claimed that
there would be an increase of twenty
FIVE per cent over last years crop. 1t is
now doubted whether the present crop
will equal that one. One hundred thou
sand hogsheads were promised. Not
more than eighty thousand will be re-
allied. Along with this we must re-
member that the Cuban Importation
will be comparatively small. The slight
unpleasantness prevailing there is not
favorable to sugar prospects, especially
as the insurgents are kindly disposed to
destroy every plantation on the Island.
At any rate, the troubles have caused q
greatly diminished production. We
should not be surprised to see sub
stantial rise in the price Of this Sweet
ner Of life's" coffee, tea and toddy.

The Nnyy

The Secretary of the Navy in his re-
port, favors an increase of the e1pendi-
lures in his Department. But he is
modest withsl. He only wants an ex-
ira appropriation of some eight mil
lions over the expenditures OF
the current year. That is his
estimate. The actual outlay may
bring the excess up to ten millions,
forming total of thirty millions. But
that is but mere trihe for the priv
lege Of robson AID the glory Of float
ing tubs in triumph around the world.
Let RoBEsoN's excuses be approved.
These are retrenchment times, and
while every other Department is swind-
ling and squandering under the pretext
of retrenching, we see no reason why
the great Professor of National Aquatics
may not play his little game along with
the rest.

The Beck Of Genesis.

AaAssIz, the Professor, denies the re-
mark attributed to him that mo enc
who believed the book Of Genesis need
attend his lectures He only declared
that the theological Interpretation of
the work of Genesis giving six thousand
years as the age of the world was q
hindrance to the understanding of geo.
logical evidence, and no one who started
with this idea, and allowed his research.

practised In the art Of concealing in six
lines an idea that can be expressed in
one, wPuld explain the difference be-
tween the original declaration and the
substitute. The accuracy Of the book
of Genesis 10 certainly disputed in both
and in the first it is done more plainly
and therefore more decently.
