The FOrtieth Congress.

THE nunc dimittis of the FOrtieth Con-
gress should be the humiliating confession
that it has done the things it ought not
to have done, and left undOne the things
it ought to have done. 1t dies without
ever even having tried to do its duty. 1t
has specially neglected the very things
which its party declared to be
imperative 1t took particular pains
to rid itself Of the obligations
which its party assumed to be the
special business of this Congress. 1t has
done nothing to revise our system OF
finances or to relieve the burden Of taxa
ton. We are no nearer specie payments
than we were six years ago. Nothing has
been done to reduce the public debt. The
tariff has been made to further Cypress
industry and commerce by the passage of
the Infamous copper bill swindle; but
nothing has been done to "let up" a sim
gle one of the onerous indirect taxes the
tariff adds to the direct taxes upon the
people. Even reconstruction is public
ly confessed failure, and there is a threat
now to subject two of the lately so-called
reconstructed States TO fresh tail-cutting,
this time close behind the ears. All the
promises made in Radical conventions
CIV pioeiOihlc, anu CNCu ny ILLS OOUSlSSS,
are found to be false. There has been no
actual performance for the public benefit
whatever
These are few among the many things
which have not been done. What mas
been done is, first, display of wholesale
extravaganza beyond that of any previ-
GUS Congress; any quantity of special leg
islation for party pets; {. reckless profu-
sion of appropriations; more Constitu-
Mountaineering for the benefit of negroes
and general division of plumber, public
and private, with the lobby.
With this record the Fortieth Congress
dies, and the Forty-first Congress inherits
the unfinished business, the infamy, and
the balance of the contingent fund in the
House and Senate of its predecessor.
Composed, as the new Congress is largely
of the constituent elements of the old one,
1t cannot be much better-which would
be a serious reflection for the whole coun-
try were it not that no possible combina-
ton OF circumstances can make it worse

Willie'S Headache.

but, strange to say, did not like it--for

President Of these United States II was
rather unfortunate, perhaps, that his first
experience Of school and snow fell to-
gether. Temptation came to him in the
shape of a sled, with iron runners, and he
fell an easy victim to it. So 1t was that
about school time he became subject to an
accession of headache, which made con-
finement impossible, but did not at all in
terfere with his going out to slide after an
hour or two at home
One glorious morning, in particular, he
came to his mother with a dreful head
ache-school was not to be thought Of I'M
der such circumstances.

have bad headache you may stay at
home, but remember you must not come
afterwards and ask to go and slide"
Not halfhour afterwards, up came
Wilie-hiS "drefful" headache all gone
with his usual petition.
"No, Willie, you know told you if you

The People TO Decide.

THE Governor of Indiana has issued his
proclamation appointing a special election
for the 22d instant, to fill the vacancies in
the Legislature occasioned by the resigna-
ton of the Democratic members. With
out doubt, every one of the members re-
signed will be returned by the people, and
by larger majority than he received be-
fore. Those representative citizens, by
their prompt and resolute course on the
negro-suffrage infamy, have shown that
they are exactly the sort of men the peo-
pie OF Indiana most desire to represent
them.
They will return to indianapolis, and
will cheerfully co operate with the Radical
majority in passing the needful apprOpri-
alton bills. But on no account will they
assist or enable them to outrage the pOpu.
lar will of Indiana by falsely declaring
that the people of that State approve of
the Ethiopian amendment. If any at
tempt be made, or any underhand intrigue
be attempted to bring forward that re-
pugnant measure, the session will be
brought to an end quite as summarily
as was the session on last Thursday.
Possibly, the Jacobins will have the
good sense to enter into an understanding
with the Democratic members, before the
opening of the extra session, by which the
Ethiopian amendment shall be sent ever
to the next Legislature That is all that
the Democrats want. They desire that
the people shall have an opportunity to
vote upon this question; and they are
firmly, unalterably resolved that the Jaco-
bin politicians shall not cheat the people
OF that right, as they have already done
in Illinois, and in three or four other
States. The Jacobin politicians in Indiana
may just as well make up their minds to
go to the people upon this issue, for that
is what they mrst do Oicago Times.

Consumption Can be Cured.

An Eastern medical periodical gives an inter
esting account of the complete cure of Mrs. Amos
Stauffer, of Manor, Lancaster county, Pa, oi
hereditary consumption. Her parents and several
brothers and sisters died of this terrible disease
Mrs. Stauffer was herself reduced to a mere skee-
tom the pulse at 40; her breathing painfully diff
1cult; eXpectorations very excessive; diarrhea
worse than chronic, and her condition so hopeless
that at conference of the old and skilful physi-
clans she pronounced incurabe. AT this
stage of the disease, Dr. s. b. Hartman, of Mil
lersville, Lancaster county, Pa, a physician OF
fourteen years standing, prescribed MISHLER'S
HERB BITTERS. The patient soon expert
enced pleasing invigorating sensation through
out her system, and encouraged by her friends
to continue under DR.. Hartman's treatment,
she did so, gradually improving under in.
creased doses according to her strength. until
she entirely recovered. Mrs. Stauffer is still lv-
ing, in full enjoyment of perfect health. c. b.
Herr, Esq, President of the Lancaster County
(Pa,) National Bank, substantiates the particu-
lars of this most wonderful case.

Tile Babc0ck Fire EYtinguisher.

CHICAGO, Feb. IS, 1868.
To The chicago Board Of UhderUfiters:
GENTLEMEN The undersigned, your commit
chosen to witness and direct the test
trial of the = New Babcock Patent Fire Extin-
guisher," report: The test of the Extincuisher
was severe. A pyramid of tar barrels with shay
inos saturated with coal OIL was permitted to
burn in a strong wind until the flames had
reached intensity and volume apparently be-
yond the control of a score of suca eXtingushers.
In less than three minutes the pyramid stood a
charred mass and the fire completely extin-
guished, with only three-fourths of the charge of
one extinguisher.
Similar results followed the burning of pile
One noticeable fact your committee desire to
give prominence to was the difficulty experienced
in re kindling both the tar barrels and boxes.
This we deem an Important and valuable feature
of the Extinguisher
In view of the foregoing flcts and experiments
we heartily recommend the general Introduction
of this simple and powerful machine into build
ings of every kind, believing its use will largely
diminish losses by fire, and thus prove great
public utility.

aged by some properly restricted plan of re-

WHILE the Hon. Walter Brooke, OF
Mississippi, was eating oysters at a saloon
in Vicksburg, one night recently. one
lodged in his windpipe excluding all all
from his lungs. A doctor was promptly
summoned, who made an incision in the
trachea, and passing his finger in pushed
the oyster out from its Judgment. Respi-
ration was then with difficulty restored,
the breathing going on through the open
ing made in the trachea. The suffering
and excitement during the time respira,
ton was suspended were extreme and re-
suited in a degree of congestion of the
lungs and brain, but especially of the lat
ter, which proved fatal next day.
