DISEASES OF THE KIDNEYS AND BLADDER

DISEASES OF THE KIDNEYS AND BLADDER
Persons unacqualnted with the structure and
functions of the Kidneys cannot estimate the iDt-
portdnce Of their healthy action.
Regular and sufficient action of the Kidneys is
as important, nay, even more so, than regularity
of the bowels. The Kidneys remove from the
Blood those effete matters which, if permitted to
remain, would speedily destroy life. total sus-
pension Of the urinary discharges will occasion
death from thirty-six to forty-eight hours.
When the Urine is VOided in small quantities at
the time or when there is disposition to Urtnate
more frequently than natural or when the Urine
is high colored or scalding, with weakness in the
small of the back it should not be trifed with or
delayed but KoskOo should be taken at once to
remedy the difficulty, before lesion of the organs
takes place. Most of the diseases Of the Bladder
originate from those of the Kidneys, the Urine
being imperfectly secreted in the Kidneys, prove
irritating to the Bladder and Urinary passages.
When we recOllect that medicine never reaches the
Kidneys except through the general circulation Of
the Blood, we how necessary it is to keep the
Fountain of Life Pure.

SENATOR SCHURZ.

The telegraph informs us that the
fight which has been going on in
Missouri, between Senator Schurz
and Ex-senator (now Governor-elect)
Is. Gratz Brown, on the one side, and
Senator Drake and Gov McClurg,
on tho other-is likely to be trans
ferred 10 Washington. The Schurz
Brown party, aided by the demo-
Gratis, has just carried the state
against the Drake party by over
forty thousand majority, and it is
openly charged by the Missouri pa
pers that President Grant did all be
could to defeat Brown. Be that as
it may, the Drake party now propose
to degrade Schurz by excluding him
from all important committees, es-
pecially that of Foreign Affairs, and
TO turn out of office all his friends in
Missouri Drake and Schurz hate
each other with an intensity that
cannot be increased, and Schurz is
not favorite with General Grant /;
but it Is hardly probable that either
the Senate, in its arrangement OF
Committees, or the President, in APP
pointing Missourians to office, will
deem it oxpedient to take hand in
this local Senatorial quarrel. With
out attempting to decide upon the
merits of the controversy in Missou-
ri, the success of the Schurz party
by such an overwhelming majority,
would seem TO prove that he is the
most popular man at home, and it
was pretty clearly demonstrated by
his mastery review of the doctrine
of sGuatter sovereignty as originally
promulgated by Stephen a. Douglas,
and by his public career since, that
he is not to DO trihed with by either
Senates or Presidents. Senator
Schurz will not soon be forgotten by
the earlier and true republicans OF
Wisconsin. He stood with them
amid the gloom OF defeat, and re-
joiccd with them in the hour of vic
tory, and they have confidence in his
integrity and honesty. 1t is not i'm
possible that Senator Schurz and his
party are too leniently disposed to-
wards the ex-rebels of his stato-the
main point Of difference between the
two parties being the question of re-
storing them to political power at
this time-but Mr.. Greeley has been
urging universal amnesty for some
time, and he still passes for a tolera-
bic Republican.
General Grant has too much good
sense to attempt to degrade Sena-
tor for taking a different view of po-
litical affairs in his own state, SO
long as his actions does not contra
venc tho settled and well known
policy of the Administration, and
the Senate will not disgrace Schurz
until after his disloyalty to Republi-
canism has stronger exemplifica-
ton than the recent contest in Mis-
souri,.

Our Claims Against England.

The following paragraph appeared
in two of the daily journals of the
National Capital friendly to the ad-
ministration, and is understood to
have been inspired at the Executive
Mansion:
"The Alabama case is now with
Great Britain. Its settlement is her
task, as she deliberately inflicted in-
iuries upon commerce, and deliberate
ly prolonged the rebellion. Satisfac-
ton for these great wrongs should as
deliberately be made. The United
States makes no entaugling alliances
with other powers. That is her ira
dltional policy at once her duty and
her covenant and that is to-day the
attitude of President Grant. He
does not propose to take advantage
Of the difficulties of friendly nation.
Unlike France, which interfered to
establish new empire on our south
ern frontier and unlike England,
which exerted all the influences of
her aristocracy in favor Of the rebel
lion at n moment when the cause of
The Union was doubtful, the Presi-
dent relies upon the sense Of justice
Of the English Ministry and the Eng
fish masses, believing that they will
seize the first fitting occasion to close
up the only remaining cause Of diff
ference between people speaking the
same language, and animated by the
most fraternal feeling toward each
other.

What the President Thinks of the IN ew
Party" Movement.

Senator Wilson, of Massachusetts,
has had Il long interview with Pres
ident Grant on the general condition
Of political affairs and the future OF
the Republican party. Ia the course
Of tho conversation the subject of the
"new party" movement of the Chica-
go Tribune came up. The President,
it is said, did not seem to attach much
Importance to the course Of the Trib-
me. For years past, he said, that
paper had been, to all lntents and
purposes, with the opposition. It's
coming out formally against the Re
publican party, and in favor Of new
organization, did not surprise him.
He had been looking for that for
some time past, and he was glad it
had concluded to sail under its true
colors. Since the paper came under
~ present management, it had sought
ny every means to demoraliZe the
Republican party of the Northwest.
He lid not believe 1t had much infil-
ence ia Republican circles, aud one
Of the strongest evidences Of this was
the defeat OF Hon. John Wentworth
for Congress at the recent election
Wentworth was the boiling Repub-
lican candidate, and was supported
by the Tribune against Farwell, the
Regular nominee, who was elected.
The President informed Senator Will
son that although he bad been disap-
pointed in some States, he considered
that on the whole the recent elections
had resulted satisfactorily to the Re-
pubIicans. lie did not think there
was anything to cause alarm for the
future. The people could not be
successfully drawn aside from the
maintenance of the great principles
Of the Republican party. What they
want, in his opinion, is the payment
of the public debt, the reduction OF
expenditures, reduction of taxes. and
an economical administration of the
Government. The party that refu-
ses TO be drawn away by side issues,
and that pursues the policy here in
dicated, WILL in the opinion of the
President, elect its candidate in 1872
