A National Medicine.

One can hardly pick up n newspaper or
turn q street corner nowadays that he
does not find staring him in the face, the
announcement that Prof. So-and-so has
lust discovered medicine which is a pam
acea for all the ills that flesh Is, or may ne,
heir TO. These wonderful" discoveries
usually have an existence of few months,
then disappear from public notice. The
reason of their sudden eXtinguishment is
apparent. They were humbugs. At the
outset all medical preparations have an
equal chance for success, ms ali are equally
unknown; but the chaffiS soon wtnnowed
from the grain by the practical test which
an unprejudiced public applies to all things.
There are but few preparations Of medicine
which have withstood the impartial judg-
ment of the people for any length OF time.
One of the few which we have now in mind,
and which has been long time familiar to
nearly every household in the land, Is the
celebrated Hostetter's Stomach Bitters.
Their almost universal sale and use, and
their emphatic endorsement from all por-
tons of the country, compel the admission
that they must he a specific for the ailments
for which they are recommended. Letters
before us attest their efficacy in diseases OF
the throat, bowels and liver. In that truly
terrible complaint, dyspepsia, they are re-
Carded as q sure cure. In Pittsburgh, where
these Bitters are manufactured, their sale
for home use Is immense. This tact alone
speaks volumes in their tavor.-ETtrrctN

National Banks.

The inquitous national banking sys
TEN was well illustrated on Thursday
evening by a grand dinner at the Man
sion House given by the national bank
ers of this city to party Of their feI
low-plunderers of the public-some
thirty or more in number. This second
Belshazzar's feast was paid for with
the money of the stockholders, who
are ruled out on such occasions, Can
anything more strongly condemn the
national banking system than the &C
tons OF national bankers themselves
Running theirc banks for their own
profit and that of their favored and
favoring friends, and not for the accom-
mediation OF the business public-heap-
ing up money by indirect bribery and
the shaving OF farmers and others-dis-
counting paper, when discounting any
at all, with an air Of condescehtion, as
if granting a great favor-and finally
winding up the year with an expensive
night of feasting and debauchery equal
ing the orgies of Belshazzar or Cleopa-
tria, from the sight or knowledge OF
which the stockholders are excluded il
possible.
The national banking system is a
fraud, cheat, an outrage upon the
rights Of the people. tits as expensive as
it is unjust and were it not for the sup
port it receives from the United States
government it would long since have
fallen to pieces from its own rottenness.

Result in Illinois.

The Chicago Times says sufficient re-
turns of the election for members of the
Illinois Legislature have been received
to indicate that the Democracy will
have majority in the House of Re
representatives., while the Republicans
will have a small majority in the Sen
ate. If the Democracy do not have a
majority in the two Houses, jointly, the
division will be of such a nature as will,
in all probability, assure the election Of
Judge LAWRENCE to the United States
Senate.

South Carolina.

The experiment of negro rule can
now be tested thoroughly in South
Carolina. The Lieutenant Governor is
negro; three out Of the four members
of Congress are negroes; there is a ne
gro Secretary Of State; negro Judge
of the Supreme Court; and eleven out
of the thirty-one State Senators, and
eighty-oHe out Of one hundred and
twenty-four Representatives are as black
as the ace of spades. Thus the State
is virtually turned over to the merCies
of tie negroes. They will manage the
legislation of that Commonwealth, and
bend the Governor to their purpose.
This wholesale condemnation Of white
men does not please the more sober and
discreet journals of the Radical party.
They know the negroes are unfit TO
make or administer laws, and hence the
fear that the whole fallacy Of negro
rule will be exploded in South Carolina.
But the negroes have rope enough in
that State, and they can hang them
selves If they wish. We believe they
will.
In view Of this state of things, the
Boston Adrertiser, a Radical paper, feels
constrained to say This is q great bit
dangerous victory We may add that
this great victory" would have been
impossible, had the Democrats and Con
servatiyes of South Carolina been I'M
trammeled by Federal bayonets and
Radical scoundrelism. The frauds per-
petrated on the day of election were
open and unblushing; and when these
are considered in connection with the
outrageous election law Of the State, it
is no wonder that South Carolina went
overwhelmingly Republican. We have
before alluded to this election law. By
it, the Governor, himself candidate
was empowered to appoint three COM
missioners of election in each county.
These commissioners appointed three
managers, who, agreeably to the letter
of the law, retained the ballot-boxes
three days after the election, and then
turned them over to the commissioners
who kept them ten days longerl Thus
the Radicals were given every chance
in the world to cook up the result; and
the game was yell donS.
