WENDELL PHILLIPS, the brains of the
Radical party, has published furious
TRADE against the course Of Germany
in the present war. OF Prussia, he
saws: "She is not a nation; she is only
an over-grown army; a horde Of brig,
ands, too strong for their civilized
neighbors." Bismarck he says, is only
an sdreit manager, second lieutenant to
Moltke, and the willing tool of an adrort
king; no breadth, no foresight, no large
instincts OF humanity, always the high
eat wisdom" The result Of the war he
describes in these singing terms :
Frederick William began in trying to
crush an empire. 1t vanishes like a
mist when he attempts to grappie win
it, and, aghast, he finds himself face to
face with a republic. He puts the
crown back on his prisoners head IN
the desperate effort to save his own
from worse foe. The victory Of Sedan
has only put him into Napoleon
place" 1t is very evident that the
Radicals have given up all hope OF
wheeling the German voters.

Fire..

Friday night last, the large barn Of
Joseph S. Machir, Esq, in Robinson
township, was burned, together with al
its contents. There was about l0O
bushels of wheat in the barn; Ioo
bushels Of oats, some corn, and a large
quantity of hay, plows, and other farm
ing utensils. Three very valuable
horses were burned to death. The loss
is said to be about $500. No insur-
ance. As to how the fire originated, no
one seems to know, but it is supposed
TO be the work Of an incendiary. We
sincerely regret this loss to Mr.. Machir

Hoohand's German Tonic

Was compounded for those not inclined TO
extreme bitters, and is intended for Use in
cases when some alcoholic stimulant Is re-
quired in connection with the Tonic proper
ties of the Bitters. Each bottle OF the Tonic
contains one bottle OF the Bitters, combined
with pure SANTA CRUZ Rum, and favored
in such a manner That the extreme bitter
ness Of the Bitters is overcome, forming a
preparation highly agreeable and pleasant
to the palate, and containing the medical
virtues Of the Bittes. The price OF the
Tonic is $50 per bottle which many per-
sons think too high. They must take into
consideration that the stimulant used Is
guaranteed to be of pure quality. a poor
article could be furnished at a cheaper price,
but is 1t not better to pay little more and
have good article? A medicinal prepara-
ton should contain none but the best ingre-
dients, and they who expect ito obtain a
cheap compound will most certainly be
cheated.

Wives Of Great Men.

Here is the latest thing from Mrs.
Mrs. Stanton in The Revolution From
the DAYS of Socrates to Charles Dickens
there has been one long succession OF
unfortunate examples Poet and paint
er, dramatist and novelist, philosopher
and linguist-the Molieres, the Millions,
the Byrons, the Sheridans, the Thack-
erays-did all marry and quarrel in the
past. All these men, without exception,
will in the future as in the past, blame
their wives for their several successive
catastrophies. And yet what a record
of heartlesness and difference our great
est men have left of their domestic life.
DR.. Franklin, that old utiitarian kite.
flyer, went to Europe, leaving his wife
behind, and never saw her for eleven
wears. She had shared his pow.
erty, prac,iced his poor Richard
maxims, pinched and econo-
mixed, patched and darned, worked
early and late, bred children, nursed
them through jaundice, red gum, whoop-
ing cough, measles, scarlet fever and
fits, while Benjamin enjoyed the splen-
doris of court, velvet touches, great din
ners and choice society. OF course,
when he came back the poor drudge
was no match for the philosopher; there
was a great gulf between them. That
her heart rebelled is manifested in the
headstrong acts Of his children. He
ouarreled with one Of his sons and dis.
inherited one Of them Thus the
mother wrongs were revenged. A just
retribution for any wrong on woman Is
sure to come in the vice and crime OF
her children to the third and fourth
generations. Henry Clay thought he
could safely leave his wife at Ashland
to bear children and make but,
ter for the Lexington market,
while he made laws for the nation
and love to the lovely women in Wash,
ington. There his heart stood open as
any boarding house door, but shut
against her who was playing Solomon :
wise woman on a farm in Kentucky,
cutting out lindsey and jean for the ne,
groes. His dream of ambition ever,
sick and sad, he went back to Ashland
to find that the domestic drudge, called
by the holy name of wife, had reared
mp for him a race Of degenerate, way
ward children. He was filled with the
bitterness OF disappointment. But they
measured the depth OF the mothers hu,
initiation the angles OF incidence and
retaliation were but equal Was it the
sorrowful mother that made one son
crazy with hopeless love; another q
sour, disconnected man, overcome
through life with sense of inferiority
and jockeys and gamblers of the rest q?

Our Israelitish Brethren.
BY JAMES PARTON.

Did the reader ever try to compute
what it has cost our Israelitish brethren
to keep two Sundays week, and four
sets of holidays year? Besides their
own religious and national festivals,
they have been compelled, generally I'M
der ruinous penalties, to abstain from
business on those Of the countries in
which they have dwelt Thus in Cath
Ole countries, for several centuries, they
were obliged to be idle: |. Fifty-two
Sundays; ,. Thirty holidays Of obliga-
ton; 3. Fifty.two Saturdays or Sab
baths; 4. An average of twelve other
HOLIDAYS OF their own: total one hun
deid and forty-six days per annum,
or about two days in every
FIVE, In Protestant countries, the
usual number Of idle days, including
their fiity-two Saturdays and twelve fes-
rivals and fasts, has been one hundred
and ten, or about two days in every
six. In other words, the Jews in Catho-
lie countries have been obliged, by law
and conscience, TO abstain from bust
ness nearly three days week, and in
Protestant countries a little more than
two. OF late years, since Catholics
have become much less strict in the OBJ
servance of Sundays and holidays, the
Jews suffer more inconvenience in Pro
te.tant than in Catholic lands The
rigor of the Scotch and Puritan Sun
day is especially grievous to them, even
TO the present hour; while in Paris
Hamburg, and Vienna Sunday is, in
some branches of business the best day
OF the week.
This fact of the double set of holidays
would alone have sufficed to exclude
them from agriculture. A ipe harvest
will not wait from Friday till Monday
for any of our scruples; and two good
planting days lost in late, wet spring
would often make the difference between
a crop and no crop. Fancy market
gardner in strawberry time, or florist
in Nav, obliged to cease work half an
hour before sunset Friday afternoon,
and unable to offer anything for sale till
Monday morning! Even the thirty
Catholic holidays Of obligation placed
the farmers of Catholic countries under
a disadvantage that was obvious to all
who lived near the line dividing Cath
Ole from a Protestant country. Vol
taire, who lived tor thirty years close to
the frontier of France. within two miles
of Protestant Geneva, dwells upon this
in many passage Of exquisite satire.
Readers remember the scene in which
the priest rushes from the tap-room,
red with wrath and wine" to rebuke
the woman who had "the insolence
and impiety' to plough his field on a
Saints day, instead OF going to the tav-
ern and drinking like the rest of the
parish. The poor gentleman was
ruined; he left the country with his
family and servants, and went to a for
eign land, turned Lutheran, and his
lands remained uncultivated for many
wears" Ifthirty extra holidays were
a serious injury to French farmers, 1t
will not be questioned that ninety-fou!r
made agriculture an impossible pursuit

Editors OF the Register:
Yesterday some of the Sovereigns Of the
county turned out to hear the issue:
now dividing the political parties Of the
State, DISCUSSED Although the an
nouncement that the Ex-Confederate
COL Swami, would address thu. Repub.
licans Of the county, was excellently cir
culated, but a comparatively small
number turned out to hear him. Ar
rangements were effected by which Col.
Swami opened the debate in speech of
an hour. His speech though delivered
In good style was entirely pointless and
coldly received. Not single demon.
stration Of appreciation greeted him,
taking his seat at the conclusion of his
speech amid profound silence. For his
new associates in politics he accomp-
lished nothing.
He was followed by our popular can
didate for Governor, j. J. Jacob. Mr..
Jacobs speech was feelingly and ap-
propriately spoken, and was well re-
ceiyed. His manner and matter are both
pleasing and effective. Mr.. Jacob d.
rected his attention to the questions d.
rectly affecting the people and handled
them handsomely.
Mr.. Jacob was succeeded ky Mr..
Henry G. Davis, who occupied about
an hour:in the discussion Of State issues
| need not say that he evinced his usual
tact and good sense in presenting these
questions to the people.
The discussion was closed by an in
flicktion of TRADE Of invectives from
Flick, who addressed himself not so
much to the discussion Of the questions
before the people as to the passions and
prejudices of the people. His speech
elected some applause from the bitter
enders.
At night respectable audience as
sembled 10 listen to c. ?. Simpson, of
Mason county, who delivered a mas
terly argument upon the condition OF
the country. | shall not attempt to
give synopsis OF his argument. only
wish that every laboring man in the
State could have heard him. His
speech did much good. From all /
can learn, this county will do her duty
this fall, and if other portions Of the
State will do as well, West Virginia will
be redeemed. Radicalism is doomed:
work with energy and all will be well.
