THE TRIBUNE ON THE RESULT IN NEW
YORK.

Until last Saturday the New YORK iTlo'
,ae, whose editor was defeated candidate
on the Republican state ticket, maintained
dznifed silence on the cause of the dis
aster to its party 10 che rural districts, but
on that day in an editorial entitled after
the Battle" administered such reproof and
castigstion to the country Republicans as
he thought they deserved. Moving peeh
overwhelmingly, and indeed ungenerously,
defeated, he descends from his usual decorum
and comes down to the common level OF ms
marty that he may not overshoot them, ana
pours such voley of grape and canister
into them as "sorehceds," "poor creatures
"pseudo philanthropists,' "reformeFs'
"Quakers," "sulky," "slow'and-easy;' and
says If there be anywhere in the universe
an uncomfortable place, these hypocrltes
ought to be invited to the hottest corner oil
il" This sailing down by the aimable
Horace is little soothed in another part OF
the article by the concession that some OF
"the local candidates we're enough TO turn
the stomach of a horse
Ofhis own particular case, lamb-hke
Horace amiably returns "especal thanks
to those Who feeling woIfsh against one
Horace Greeley, scratched his name OFT their
ballots and voted the rest OF the hepnoi
can ticket Tor most of IL, like gentlemen
He then proceeds to confess the sIns OF hi
party leaders in the following candid para
graph in which he not very modestly, ye
no doubt truthfally, accounts in q measur
for the result:
There lie much that explains, if it doe
not excuse, the apathy OF our rural brelh
rem. They had to throttle the corrupt ley
islators who for years have been trading UP
on and trading away the good name Cd tn
Republican party; and publication, thong
a necessary, is seldom II joyous, exhllera
ting, fattening process. On the contrary
the Hat refusal to nominate, distinctly o
the assumption that they we're thieves, mint
tenths of the corrupt rascals who disgrace
us at Albany last winter, naturally cost I
good many votes; but to have sttempte
to whitewash and uphold them would hay
cost us far more. They would not, as
body get out of the way, 80 they had to
kicked out, and they revenged themselv'
on our ticket generally, but especially {
our candidate for Comptroller, whom th'
held especially responsible for their expo
ure and downfall. If it was mistake
nominate him under the circumstances,
beg leave to say that we did not favor i
approve such nomination"

Contracted limbs and Dropsical
SWellingS.

The reputation acquired by the Ointment as a
means OF utilizing stiff j..nts, by re.endowing
them with iexibilty and activity, is as wide as
the range of civilization. Persons who have not
touched the ground with one, perhaps either
leg for years, become able to step out firmly
without any other help than cane, and in some
instances without requiring even that assistance.
Dropsieal swellings are reduced and the depesi-
ton of water in the cellular tissue arrested by the
tonic action of the Ointment. In all these cases
it is essential that the preparation be faithfully
aud vigorously rubbed in.
