A MEM SENSATIOS

We find in the Louisville Commercial
of yesterday the following dispatch:
NASHVILLE, March est is reported
that Gov. Senter has received long letter
from Senator Brownlow, proposing OF
suggesting measures for consolidating and
uniting the Republican party. The
proposition has put new ideas into the
heads of a number, and it is now whis
pered about the capital that the plan is TO
Introduce a bill into Congress setting
aside the new Constitution, as being OBJ
hoxious TO the national policy, and being
the offspring of an Legitimate body in
part, who are under the ban of the
Fourteenth Amendment. and precipi
tated on the people without time for I'M
derstanding its merits. This bill will
be Offered in lieu of the one proposed for
reconstructing the State, and recon-
mended, as it is said it will be, by Senator
Brownlow, Maynard, and others, as a
conciliatory measure, it will be favorahly
received. 1t will provide for retaining
The present judiciary and Legislature,
thereby strengthening and popularizing a
strong political party, including all the
Conservative Union men, such as Senter,
Cooper, Etheridge, Nelson, and others,
which will also, according TO the plan,
bring to their support some of the Con-
sentative press of the State.
That Senator Brownlow may have
written to Gov. Senter we think highly
probable, and that there exists great
anxiety among the Radical leaders to
adopt measures for the consolidation and
union of the party we think quite certain.
But we do not believe that any such COM
ipromise can be arranged between the
sunposed high contracting parties.

Before this is received you will have
been apprised that Mr.. Beck has an
nounced that he win not be a candidate
for reelection to Congress from the Ash
land district. Great regret is expressed
by the Democratic members at his deter
raination. Every one Of our party, in
and out of Congress, recognizes his rare
ability, and his loss will be seriously felt.
His public career has been most brilliant.
He entered Congress three years ago, and
TO day he has a national reputation. 1t
may be said in truth that he achieved die
tinction at a single bound. Ills retire
ment viii be regretted as much by his
political adversaries almost indeed as by
his friends. He is general favorite
with both.
Every friend of constitutional govern
nrent throughout the land will learn with
deep regret of Mr.. Beck's determination.
He has especially endeared himself to the
people of the South for his manly defence
of their rights against the aggressions of
the Congressional Regulators. His SER
vices will be long and gratefully remem-
bered

1t is truthfully said by the New York
Times, Radical, that seldom has there
been a stronger or more unanimous ex-
preston on any question than has been
elected on this subject within the past
few weeks. From one end of the coun-
try to the other, the expression has been
almost unanimous, showing conclusively
that the great business interests have be-
come reused to q sense of the absolute
necessity of immediate relief. So great
a depression in almost every department
of industrial and trade enterprise has not
been experienced for years as now exists,
and the people are looking anxiously to
Congress for relief. The policy of de-
plotting the people at such time, and pay
ing off our debt at the rate of an hundred
millions year, seems worse than folly.
1t was well enough just after
the war, when the national credit stood
in need of a demonstration of our ability
to pay. But that time has passed by,
and there is no longer any necessity for
evidence uponth that point. What we need
now is recuperation of over-tasked ener-
gies. The country demands rest from the
gratuitOus liquidation of its debt, at least
until it shall be able TO adjust itself to the
rapid financial Gepreciations which have
been going on for the past year. That
result can be materially aided and expedi-
ted by Congress, though liberal and
discreet reduction of imposts and inter
nal revenue taxation. 1t should be done
to the extent of at least fifty millions a
year, which would be equivalent to add
ing that amount TO the active resources of
the country, and thereby stimulating trade
aud industry. We trust that Congress
will yet heed the demand of The people
and concede the relief they sorely need.

IS the United States Supreme Court on
the 25th inst. Senator House moved to
dismiss the writ of error TO the State
Court in the case Of the Lieutenant Gov
ernor of Florida for want of jurisdiction,
on the ground that the office was one
wholly within the control of the laws of
the State, and that the judgment of the
local courts against Gleason, dismissing
him from office, was therefore final. Gen.
Butler opposed the motion, urging that as
the election was under the reconstruction
acts of Congress this court has jurisdic-
tion 10 review the judgment In Buffers
view. the reconstruction laws are very
comprehensive, and can be made to cover
every species of Radical infamy in the
South.

HON. j. $. GOLLADAY.

The Washington Republican (Radi-
caD of March 20 has the following para
graph:
pending the investigation of the al
legged sale of cadetships by the Military
Committee of the House of Representa-
tives, Hon. Jacob S. Golladay, member
from Kentucky, rendered his resignation
in consequence of his implication in an
alleged sale. Exactly why he resigned
the committee never could understand, as
the evidence against him was not of q
character TO inspire any fear on his part.
The report of the committee recently sub
mitted justifies the assertion of his friends
at the time that he acted with haste and
without cause After the most thorough
examination and cross-examination of
their witnesses against him, the commit
tee have reported no guilt or venality on
his part, and we learn he has returned to
his constituents to ask his return TO Con-
gress, and information from Kentucky is
to the effect that this report has brought
about great reaction in bis district in his
favor

asmuch as he is against the Bingham
amendment and for the St. Domingo
treaty, which, by the way, is enlisting the
sympathies of those friendly TO Cuba, on
the declaration that Cuba will follow ST.

Canton. -Audacions Counterfeit.

Caution. -Audacicns Counterfeit.
Tne reputation which, for many years, has at
tached to @Hostetter's Stomach Bitters," as the
STANDARD Tonic OF THE AGE, and the large de-
nand for the article not only in the United States
but elsewhere, have provoked the cupidity Of the
CONTEMPLATING TRIBE, and it hiss been extern
siyely simulated and Unlisted By inscriptions
sharpers.
The most daring counterfeit of said article
which has been attempted, has recently come to
orr knowledge. The engraved steel label on bot
ties containing the genuine btters, with its beau
tiful vignette Of st. George and the dragon, its
shield containing a warming against counter
feters and its note of hand for Zone cent" at the
foot signed with our firm narae, has been copied
30 closely, that the fraud only be detected on
minute inspection The dark label Is also well
counterfeited, and the wording on both the imita-
ton and genuine, precisely the same, the dif-
ference being simply in the execution OF the work
that OF the imitation being somewhat coarser than
| the genuine. Other counterfeits are on the mar
| ket which Ia all particulars the same as de-
scribed above, with the exception of slight diff
| ference In the spelling Of our name.
In addition to the above, these counterfeifers
have gone so far in some instances as to place a
strip of paper the cork and fssten to the neck
Of the bottle, which is Y1gnette, and otherwise
printed to resemble the general appearance Of our
| proprietary o. s. Revenue stamp, but upon in,
spection will disclose the absence of the figure -
and the words "four cents also UNITED States Ia
ternal Revenue, al of which, together with addi-
tional wording, appear on our genuine stamp. The
public are, therefore, especially warned against
these new coUNTERFEITs, and are advised to pur-
chase Hostetters Stomach Bitters only of houses
| whose integrity is above suspicion. The true spe-
cifc is sold in bottles ezcsively-slereT in bulk.

DISEASES OF THE BLOOD.

''The life of the flesh is in the Bloodn is
Scriptural maxim that science proves TO be true.
Tbs people talk of bad blood as the cause of many
diseases, and like many popular opinions this Of
bad blood is founded in truth.
The symptoms Of bad blood are usually quite
plain-bad Digestion causes imperfect nutrition,
and consequently the circulation is feeble the soft
tissues lose their tone and elasticity, and the
tongue becomes pale, broad, and frequently COW
cred with pasty, white coat. This condition soon
shows itself in TOthess of the skim then in ERUP-
TIVE and LUCRATIVE diseases, and when long con-
inued, results in serious LESSONS of the Brain, Lv
er, Lungs, or urinary apparatus. Much, very
much, suffering Is caused by impure blood. 1t is
estimated by some that one-fifth of the human
family are affected with scrofula In some form.
When the blood is pure, you are not so liable to
any disease. Many impurities of the Blood arise
from impure diseases Of large cities. Eradicate
every mpurity from the fountain of life, and good
spirits, fair skin and vital strength will return to
you.

DISEASES OF THE KIDNEYS AND BLADDER

DISEASES OF THE KIDNEYS AND BLADDER
Persons unacquainted with the structure and
functions of the Kidneys cannot estimate the iRs-
portGnce 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 ttne or when there is disposition to Urinate
more frequently than natural, or when the Urine
is high colOred or scalding, with weakness in the
small of the back, il should not be trihed 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 recoIlect that medicine never reaches the
Kidneys except through the general circulation of
the Blood, we see how necessary ii is to keep the
Fountain of Life Pure.
