of instant death, &C., ..nd in this way

WHEN the blood becomes impoverished by
improper digestion, or there is not sufficient
food taken into the stomach to meet the re-
quirements OF tho system, the skin becomes
pallid, the lips and tongue turn almost white,
and the face assumes u wax-like appearance.
This is sure sign that the stream Of life
ishcd. How is this poverty of the blood, of
which emaciation, debility and nervous re-
taxation are the ordinary symptoms, to be
remedied? The only way would be to invigo-
rate the stomach with LIppMAS's GREAT GER
MAN BITTERs, and it will reinforce the blood

The CAnpEr-BAGGER. The New York

The CARpET-BAGGER The New York
Journal Of Commerce, one of the most
moderate of American papers, is really
gleeful over the prospect of carpet-bag
Waterloo. It thinks North Carolina has
the honor of giving Skowhcgauites the
first grand warning of the wrath to come,
so far rs their distinctive political career
in the South is concerned. Hear this:
'The indignation, if not the blood, of
the South IS now up, and the carpet
bagger hereafter will have to move on
with the almost ceaseloss march Of the
Wandering Jew. That man must be q
thorough-goipg partisan who is not glad
to throw n shovelful Of earth upon the
political coffin of the carpet-bagger. He
has been the curse of the South during
took nothing there but his carpet-bag,
hate of the South and his unscrupulous
ambition. He had no interest in South
ern industry or Southern development.
He was messenger of war, and not of
peace; or it was out of the disturbances
which he spared no effort to foment, and
for which lie always had at hand the
remedy of powder and cold steel, that
he expecred to profit. His vote at the
last session of Congress was generally to
be found on the bad side Of all political
and financial questions. For jobs he
hns the fondness OF mouse for cheese,
and was usually detected burrowing
away the centre Of every rich contract or
franchise. Such is the species carpet
bagger-the worst Of all the genus poll
tician. We congratulate the South aud
the country that the fiat of plundered
and indignant people is about to stamp
the political life out Of the whole odious
race"

Mr.. EDITOR: The Executive Committee
of the Union Reform Party do not claim,
nor have they the right to control the
discussion, except in the canvass for
Governor and dLieutenant-Go The
Executive Committee of the Union Re-
publican Party aeem to have wide juris-
diction. The following correspondence
will explain itself. It is strange that
after such letter (the contents of which
must have been known to the editor,)
the Republican should make such a
reckless announcement, that the Re-
formers would not meet them, etc. still
more strange, that A. J. Ransier, the au-
thor Of the letter, and Head Centre of the
party, who appears to be so anxious for
discussion, should absent himself from
the meeting on the 10th, to which he
was specially challenged to appear and
cept the gauntlet that has been thrown
down." why did he not stay, then, and
speak? EIe proposes an equal number
of speakers at our meetings, and we to
have the same ut his. Who are the
speakers? Is it expected that we will
consent to belittle the occasion and dis
grace the dignity OF the first two Offices
in the State, by meeting every popinjay
they may choose to put up? Will Gov.
Scott and A. J. Ransier meet Uriah
Heap and Timothy Tugmu.ton? I be-
lieve they would not turn the canvass
into ridicule, if their party would. Come.
Mr.. Pe2u5lican, try it again; give US the
facts 1 call upon you to publish this
communication, with the letters below,

sier-were not present at the meeting

The language of Thursdays leading
article of the French paper in New
York, tho Courier DIES EtuS Unis, is very
pointed. The Courrier, it is well known,
has always been warm supporter Of
Napoleon, but the news from France, it
seems, leads that paper now to give the
sign of alarm. Under the head of
"Sursum Corda, it says: "What mat
ters that there is man named Olivier,
if This man leaves us to be beaten? What
matter that thorc is o man named Napo-
leon, if Napoleon is caduc and his hand
too feeble to hold the sword? We do
not Know anybody when there is qucs-
ton of the salvation, OF the honor, Of
tho grandeur Of France. Let the power
be trusted to whomsoever shall tailo it,
and in whatever form it may be, be il
this incarnation OF The people, be it q
monarchy or Il republic-but let them
give us victory"

THE FETE NAPoLEoS.--The 18th of
August came, but the French we're not
in Berlin. The gay gentlemen Of Paris
who are said to have laid wager on the
celebration Of the fete Napoleon in the
capital of tho great Frederick are pro-
badly drilling with ex-NIinistcr Duruy in
the Garde Mobile, or with Poul de
Cassaignac in the Zouaves, for the de-
fence of their own brilliant and beautiful
metropolis The gun-powdcr which is
annually burnt and exploded after so
gorgeous fashion around the Arc de
Triomphe is wanted this year for more
serious purposes. The contrast between
all that the day commentaries and the
actual condition Of France and Of the
empire upon which it this year dawned
is SO obvious, that it is hardly worth
while to dwell upon it. 1t tells its own
story-and points its own moral-a
moral rs useless MS all the experience of
man. Had the war which began, so
like pieco of fireworks on the Pincian
or the Place de Ia Concorde, q short
month ago, been conducted as the
French people expected it to be, the day
would doubtless have been signalized by
some theatrical feat Of arms in the heart
of Germany. 1t is not likely that the
commanders Of the great army which is
now manouvring in front of the invad-
ing host of the Prussians will trouble
themselves to celebrate it in the same
way on the soil of France.

this enemy OF ours came upon us last
night like thief when we were sound

owned Cremona handed it to us, and
we drew the bow across it gently, essay
ing lplay 'Rooin Adair.' It went finely
till we reached The highest note, which,
instead of being gentle and dulcet, was
shrill and sharply out of tune. In vain
we drew the bow again and again. Only

vices to Napoleon ut the outbreak of the
present war, but we believe they were
not accepted, and are said to have lately
renewed the offer. The principal other
representatives of the Orleans family ore
the second, third, fourth and fifth sons
of Louis Philippe, uncles OF the two
young men just mentioned. The second
son is the Duke of Nemours, ffty-six
years old. Tho third son is the Prince
de Joinville, hfty-two years old, in his
fathers time naval commander of re-
pute, remembered especially for his SER
vice in Mexico. Tue fourth is the Duke
of Aumale, aged forty-two, who served
in Algeria under Bugeaud and paraguay
d'Hilliers, rose to be a marshal Of France,
and had the glory at last of receiving
Abd-el- -Kader's surrender. The fifth son
is the Duke of Montpensier, candidate
for the throne Of Spain. Since 1918 all
the family except the last-named have
lived in England.
There need be no apprehension, there
fore, that if France wants King, the
supply, as in the case of Spain, will not
be equal to the demand. It may be,
however, that the empire will be sue
ceedod by republic. if only, as before,
q bridge to q monarchy. In military
point Of view, if the experience of the
first French republic affords fair stand
ard, republic would be powerful card
for Franco to play. Except under the
first Napoleon, she has never displayed
such military prowess rs when, the
champion Of republican principle, she
defcd all Europe.
