SAD SEDUCTION CAsE.-People may
harp upon the degeneracy of our
time, but we opine a few Of our
oldest and best informed citizens
will remember the facts here recorded,
as an incident of early days, which far
exceeds the best boast of Chicago in the
line Of scandal. The curious can have
the full names Of the parties by calling
upon the editor, but out of regard for
their descendants in this city we refrain
from giving them. \ young man OF
high social standing, whom we shall
call Jacob, having 10y the conUivance OF
his mother, an arttul and most uscrI-
pulous woman, deceived his father,
who was blind, and detrauded his only
brother ont of his right, was compelled
for fear OF his brother whom lie had
so deeply injured, to flee from the coun-
try, and after long wandering settled in
Pm. He was rccciycd and hospita-
hlv entertained in the house Of one
LII, distant relative, who was
blessed with two lovely daughters
Jacob being a susceptible youth became
quite cnamorcd with the younger, who
fully rcciprocated his passion, but their
marriage was prevented by one OF the
peculiar whims of her father, who de-
clared he would not give his younger
before the first born For some mex
plicahlc reason Jacob married the elder
daughter withoutany serious opposition,
and settled on one Of the plantations
OF her father and engaged in stock
raising
He lived happily with his wife a num-
Der of years, conducting himself in a
most exemplary manner, and was quite
successful in his business. But his love
for the Younger sister did not slumber,
but rather increased hy years, and
strange as it may appear she left her
fathers house of her own accord, and it
is said 10y his consent, and went to live
under the roof OF her hrotherin-law
The sequel to this step may readily be
anticipated. She displaced her sister
in the affections Of Jacob, and the re-
suit was she bore him two children
This was in the DAYS when the relation
of master and slave was legally recog-
nized, and each of the daughters of
LII had a waiting maid who was
very handsome Nowmark how rapid
ly the work of decentralization progress
ed. Each Of these servant women also
bore Jacob two children, which to-
gelher with the seven children 10y his
lawful wife, made a family Of thir-
teen children of whom Jacob was the
father.
Whatever may have hcen thought in
the community in regard to the conduct
of this man, very little was said about
it Even Mrs. Grundy kept quiet for
once
One Of the sons OF the Younger sister
was the well known governor OF E,
which position he held for many wears,
until a new administration deposed him
In fact the whole family became con-
spicuous and figured largely in S-be-
fore the Fifteenth Amendment made "all
things even.
Such is the brief but true history OF a
fast young mans career, whom many of
our readers have heard of, "who won
and passed away before Chicago had
become the center Of sensation scandal,
or the Red Stockings had won the
championship.-Cncinnati Commercial.

The Life Sustaining Organs.

The two organs which minister most
directly TO the support of the body, are the
stomach and liver. In the former, the first
process of digestion takes place, under the
action of that powerful solvent, the gastric
juice. Thence the food, converted into
pulp, passes into the duodenum, where il is
subjected to the action Of the bile or gall.
flowing from the liver, and of the fluid gen
Grated by the pancreas, or sweetbrcad Of the
system. These SecretionS separate the nu-
trtiouS portion from the rest, and il Is then
taken up by the absorbent vessels and con-
veyed into the channels of circulation in
the form of venous blood, while the waste
matter is discharged through the bowels.
Unless all these processes are duly perform,
ed, disease of some sort Is inevitable, and
the best of all medicinal agents for preSerV-
ing or restoring the tone and regulating the
action of the three organS-(the stomach,
liver and inteStines)-by which the three
fold work Is carried on, is HOStetter'S
Stomach BitteS. Indigestion is generally
accompanied by constipation, and the
gentle cathartic operation of the BtterS Is
no less important in cases OF this kind, than
its tonic effect upon the stomach and the
hillary gland. Beauty of person as well as
health, depends in no small degree upon the
regularity of the eXcretive functions. y
Sallow complexion, thick, Opaque, coarse
skin, IL tainted breath, rush of blood 10 the
head, loss OF memory, headache and ex-
IRENE mental depression, are the usual
of cOStiveueSs. \ course
of the Bitters will infallibly relieve
and finally Danish these ObnOXiuuS symp-
toms, while invigorating the stomach and
promoting healthy action in the liver. This
genial vegetable Stomachic and Alternative
strikes at disease in its primary sources, as
Stimulating secretive and eXpulsive organs,
and the cures il effects are consequently
thorough and complete.

The editor of the HtelLgcncer, with
his characteristic stupidity and lack OF
candor, undertakes to refute the argu-
ment that the bill to enforce the 18th
amendment will add largely to the list
of registered voters in this State 10y
citing the fact that the law does not con-
template the registration of those upon
whom the State Constitution or laws
impose a disability. We all understand
that those who cannot take the test
oath and comply with the conditions
prescribed by the Registration act, can
not, under this Congressional act, de-
mand registration. But it is equally
clear that those who can comply with
the provisions of the registration law
can compel the Registrars to enroll
them and the election officers to receive
their ballots By referring to the Intel
Egmccr, dated September 20, 1869, we
find it editorially stated that this class
of men who are umlawfully deprived of
the ballot, is large one Says the
H,teLIigmcT:
And to enforce this exclusion we
maintain q feature ofregstration which
puts the control Of Sufragc u, Tie handS
Of IRRESPONSIBLE and sometimes UNSCRU-
PuLoUS agents acho do not ARRAYS stop
Nth those ach0 arc excluded By lac, Jw
,cko, to CRAFTY personal dislike or mercer
ary ends, deprive of tie ballot men ofMcr
o,ca political faith ,cko haze a right to
cote 1nder tie Lao. Ind tie practical
operation of tbs restriction, on suffrage IN
many counties IS 10 PIT the entire control
Of taration disbursement and representa-
ton IN the hands Of onc-haT, oacJo,rth,
oae-c;ghtk, and eUcn less, Of tie tar-paying
citizens Of the county Now these are
facts which we cannot ignore This, we
are sorry TO say, is the real condition,
stated without prejudice or conceal
ment, in which this wear Of grace 1869,
finds us.
And by further examination Of the
files of the MtelEgcnc0, we find it stated
in the number dated June 6, 1870,
that
Those not voting in this Congress
sional District, at the last Presidential
election, numbered no less than 5444.
and yet We suppose thousand would
cover all the persons in the district dis
franchised for acts of rebellion. With
the facts here exhibited, every one can
figure for HIMSELF but, as a rough esti-
mate, we Judge there were from three to
four thousand in each Congressional
District who were entitled to vote at the
last Presidential election but did not"
The Democracy simply propose that
this three or four thousand men in each
of the three Congressional Districts of
the State, who are, in the forcible Ian
guage of the htelHgmccr defrauded Of
the ballot by the irresponsible and IN
scrupulous agent" of Governor STEVEN
SON, ito crafty personal dislikes
or mercenary ends" shall have the bal
lot restored to them. And we propose
to accomplish this under the third sec
ton of the Congressional enactment
which the htelhgencer claims to have
been passed solely for the benefit OF the
negro.
