FRANCE IN REVOLUTION

The dispatches from France leave no
doubt that the government of Theirs is
helpless before the revolutionary elements,
and that Paris is utterly controlled by the
mob, and the power ofthe insurgents ex-
tending itselfover the country. Their Ill
innate object does not appear clear to
themselves. They are opposed to the
present government, and probably held
elections yesterday under the orders of
their central committee to elect an Assem-
bly, of their own to hold its sittings in Par
is. Their proceedings thus far have been
sanguinary and directed more by madness
than reason The decree of the commit
tee and the bullet make short work with
opposers. To be known as supporter
of the present government is suiilclent
cause to pronounce and execute sentence
ofdeath in the speediest manner. The
blood of some who fought most bravely
for France in the late war has been split
thus by the hands of their own country
men. And there seems no power capa-

ton that threatens France with repeti-
ton of the dark times of 1889, unless it
be the Emperor of Germany. If left to
itself to settle with the bands that have
inaugurated the instruction, France must
reek with blood under the new reign of
terror" The victorious faction of to-day
will slake its thirst for revenge by the
slaughter ofnumerous victims from the ri
val party, and tomorrow the tables be-
ing turned its own members will be led
out to death.
The horrors OF such a struggle will be
terrible, worse than the fury of maniacs
or the raging of wild beasts. 1t is report
ed that the German troops have been halt
ed in their march homeward, on account
of the situation at Paris. We may well
believe that the Emperor regrets the ne
cessity which compelled him to arrest the
return of his soldiers, and that he will in
terfere reluctantly with the events taking
place in France, but it would be humane
act to interfere, worthy the appreciation
of the world. Better that France should
remain under the protectorate of Germa-
ny until she becomes sober and can gov
ern herself, than to suffer again the hor-
rors and crimes of another Revolution

NEW HAMPSHIRE.

From the articles in the New Hampshire
papers it is quite evident that the republi-
cans lost the campaign more by their own
divisions than from any other cause. They
endeavor to throw the responsibility upon
Congress, San. Domingo, the removal of
Mr.. Sumner, &C., &c, but these are only
weak apologies to cover their own defic-
iencies. The rank and file of the party
were not so much at fault as the leaders.
With every inducement that men could
have to work for unity and success they
allowed the enemy to triumph. With their
small majority there was no difficulty in
sacrificing the party, and they did it most
effectually. Although they skulk behind
San Domingo and other outside matters
they do not conceal from close observers
that the difficulty was nearer home. We
do not think the result is very comforting
to them. They have lost their delegation
in Congress, their State officers and Legis-
lature, and if this is any gain or credit to
them they can enjoy it. There is no doubt
that the State will be all right next year,
but it ought to have been so this year, and
it is humilating to be obliged to believe
that there were enough New Hampshire
republicans ready to forego their principles
and party and allow the enemy to triumph
rather than cast away personal disaffection
and overlook perhaps personal neglect and
Indifferent usage.

Arrest Decay.

When plant or tree begins to decay ii
must needs die. 1t cannot be revltallzed.
But it Is not so with human beings. A hui
man ruin can be repaired. strengthened,
restored, though brown leaf or withered
blade Of grass can never be made green
again. In the autumn Of life, or even In Its
winter, when nature seems to be giving
way under the pressure of years, 1t is SILL
possible to rctard the progress of decay,
and to lend to age more than its wonted
vlgor. AS a means of promoting this object,
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters is unquestiona-
bly, the most potent of all restoratives. 1t
will not make the Old young, but it will
prevent, lessen, or soothe the infirmittes
which are the usual accomplishments OF the
d. cline OF life. For debility and lack of
nervous power, from whatever cause aris-
ing, It is the medicine that Of all Others be-
fore the world, best deserves the name of a
specific. In purity, in invigorating proper
ties, in its adaptation to weak stomachS
and feeble organizations, It has no COMPETE
tor among the tonics of the pharmacopGia,
nor among proprietary remedies. Besides
its strengthening principle, 1t possesses
Alternative and regulating properties of the
highest order, and as an anti-bilious medi-
cine Is far preferable to any of the prepare
tons containing mercury. Time has shown
that for physical decay, nervous debility,
dyspepsia, bilious disorders, and intermittent
fever, Hostetter's Bitters Is remedy with
out q rival. This Is the season OF the fall OF
the leaf; let 1t remind the old, the feeble,
the sickiy, to in vigorate and regulate their
systems with this great vegetable tonic and
Alternative.

T,. o-..a C..tr.I Hotel, NY.

This magnificent building, on Broad
way, New York, has now been in run
ming order for about year, under the
proprietorship of Mr.. II. Lyman
Powers, and during that short space OF
time has achieved a reputation second
to that of no other hotel in the country.
Two years of incessant labor and the
expenditure OF two millions Of dollars,
the proprietor says, were required 10

extensive marble palace, and the build
ing bears on its front the proof OF it.
Its immense FACADE covers the site
formerly occupied by six large edlfices'

ing six stories high. with pavilioned
French roof rising two stories higher.
Within doors the hotel presents a fresh
ness Of appearance, perfectness OF
appointment, and an Eastern splendor
of fitting and finishing, in strong con-
trast to the dullness of most of its rivals
1t commenced its business at the very
outset on scale Of magnificence seldom
or never surpassed, making complete
innovation on prices, and leaping with
one bound into the first place in public
favor. 1t combines all the elegance Of
the most fashionable hotels, with the
com forts and ease Of the most domestic,
at rates that are in pleasing contrast
with the ruinous charges OF many other
hotels. The patronage it has secured
has been commensurate with all these
advantages, and has placed the Grand
Central Hotel in the foremost rank OF
the worlds successful enterprises.

The Republicans have carried these
Electoral Votes.

The total electoral vote is 81, and
the majority of the whole number
would be l59 votes. 1t will be seen
that the Republicans have carried
nineteen and the Democrats eighteen
States. This is close running. The
Republicans have sixty.one majority
on the electoral vote A change of
thirty-one votes would defeat them.
The carrying Of New York alone, with
its thirty-three votes, would do the BUSH
ness. We have lost that State this
year simply through local causes. Penn
sylvania and California have thirty -one
votes, and their loss to the Republicans
would lose them the Presidential cleo
ton. There is no reasonable man who
doubts that Colonel Thomas A. Scott
can carry them, and do so easily, by
large majorities. He can take, also,
the Empire State. But there are Mis-
sissippi and Louisiana we carried for
Seymour in 1868, and gentlemen well
acquainted there assure us that we need
have no fears Of its going for Grant in
1872. 1t is possible we may lose New
Hampshire with her five electoral
votes, but then we may gain Connects.
cut with her six votes. The majority
against us in the latter State at her
April election was only a few hundred.
She is naturally Democratic, and would
be certain to vote for such man as
Thomas A. Scott.
II 10 only necessarv tn examine this
matter 70 see how hollow and baseless
are all the vauntings ofthe Republicans
in regard to their chances Of sweeping
the country for Grant in 1872. Nearly
on e.half OF the States and one-balf OF
the electoral vote are against them from
the start, if we only make judicious
and sensible nomination. With that
we will win. We defy any one to have
a contrary opinion who will take a
glance ut the footings Of the elections
this year. The latter have been extra
ordinarily favorable for the Republicans
more favorable than they will be
again with such man as Grant to head
the Republican ticket. 1t is probable
the election may be held under a new
apportionment, but it will affect one
party as much as the other.

From the Coalsmouth Pioneer.l
Under the above head, Charles Nor
boff. writes from West Virginia, to the
New York Tribune, as among the rest
the following bit of gossip:
at is their custom not to marry a
woman until their fist child is born.
Now such things as that may suit a
gazette, whose business it is, to black
mail all whom it touches, but to emanate
from a correspondent OF one OF the
widest circulated papers in this country
"a paper that it is presumed has made
an effort heretofore 10 stand upon lts
dignity and character, both in its edi-
torial department and its communlca-
tion-and as it certainly controls the
matter that appears in its columns, It
should be regarded by all who are
used to having things called by their
right names, as something OF mys-
tery, why such sentence as the one
above, which defames whole people,
who in virtue will compare favorably
with the same number of persons Sc
lected 10 the best locality in the city
from which the charges emanates. 1t
is therefore surprising that such SEN
tence should make its appearance IN
such a paper, and therefore we con-
clude that we have heretofore been mis-
taken in our judgment OF the real
moral worth of the Tribune. The pro-
prietors of the office were either not on
duty, or if not so, did not do their duty
in the premises. Such charge as the
one preferred above, is base and vile
Islander, on the whole female portion OF
the New river country.
We should not perhaps have noticed
the article above, had it not have been
for the bad effect produced. We wish
our country written about as much as
possible-our people can stand as much
truthful criticism as any people, and
our State for her chances as much but
we at all times, protest against that
wholesale denunciation of both male
and female, as is contained in the arll'
