THAT S94, 4,000.-It is very evident now
that the County Commissioners are deter
mined to make the best of it this year. Last
year they had over S95, 900 to work on, and
the present year it will probably go thou
sand or two higher. The amount reported
by the County Auditors for 1870, was un-
collected taxes for 1869 and previous years,
S30,633 80. The amount of tax levied for
1870 is So, ,9l0 43, making altogether $685.
t53 AZ. or this amount they report $54,-
Oo4 So expended and SAIL 2l in the
hands OF iayorite collectors. After having
this larg amount on hand they tell us that
the county is indebted S27, ,j75 76, Oh which
interest is paid, while the outstanding taxes
snow no interest. For 1871 we learn that
tax of mills has boen levied, and as the
valuation ON property is much higher than
previous years, it will run the taxes up to
about S5G,0C0 90, which with the S4l, ,4O2-
2l outstanding will make the snug sum of
ovcl $4,000. VIII the tax payers con-
tinue to uphold the Ring and pay for the
whistle tn rates.

IT is singular fact that we seldom hear
of "a we'll to do and intelligent Republican
leaving the ranks of the party to join the
Democracy, unless for the purpose of get
ting into Office, or from some other selfish
motive. On the other hand it is no un-
common thing to see intelligent Democrats,
not influenced by selfish motives, leaving
the democratic party, as it is now consttu-
ted, and under the lead of men who trim
their sails to catch every passing breeze,
who are willing TO adopt any policy how
ever, absurd, or any measure however cor
rupt, that will aid them in getting into
power. We have yet to see the first intcli-
gent and an independent Democrat, that
does not denounce the action of the late
Democratic Convention held in this place.

TIE fact of jeff Davis preaching treason
i'll the South, and Vallandigham urging an
acceptance Of the situation in the North is
significant. Can it be possible that the
giving out recently is true, that the Demo-
cratic party would so before the people in
1872 without any platform whatever 1t
looks very much like it. Under different
banners they will labor to catch votes,
preaching a variety Of doctrines antagons-
tic to each other, but conformed TO suit the
locality for which concocted. This would
indeed be a novel method of conducting a
Presidential campaign but, driven to dcs-
peration, there is no telling what the oppo-
sition may do to obtain power over the land.

FORT SILL, CoMANCHE RESERVATION,


10 THE EDITOR ON THE llERALD:-
have been skirting the Texas frontier
for the past month, and here for the first
time meet files of Easern papers, by which
see quite an unnecessary muss has been
raised bya purported speech made by me
at supper Of the Union League Club of
New Orleans the night preceding my de-
parture from that city. Whoever reported
that as Il speech by me committed breach
OF propriety, for Governor Warmoth presiG-
ed, aud before l consented to respond to n
call | was assured by the president of the
society that no reporters were present and
that whatever was said would he sacred
and confined to the persons present. Now
as TO politics. l think all my personal
friends know my deep-seated antipathy TO
the subject, yet as you seem not to under
stand me hereby state, and mean all that
say, that l NESER HAVE BEEN AND
NEVER WILL BE \ CADTDATE FOR PRE-
sIDENT; THAT III NOMINATED BY EITHER
PARTY L SHOULD PEREMPToRILY DE
CLINE, AND EVEN If UNANIMOUSLY ELE-
CIED SHOULD DECLINE TO SERVE.
lfyou can find language stronger to con-
vey this meaning you are at liberty to use
it.

what Dyspepsia May End In.

Indigestion is not dangerous, say the faculty.
Perhaps not in itself, while it remains mere in
digestion; but look at the consequences to which
it may lead, and often does lead when it becomes
a chronic disease A spark of fire is a small
thing. A pressure of the foot viii put it out; a
breath will extinguish it. Yet it may fire pow
der mill, or kindle flame that will consume a
city. In like manner indigestion may produce
gastritis, cancer Of the stomach, congestion of
the bowels, apOplexy, liver disease, and many
other dangerous maladies. l. it not wise, then,
to check it in The germ? Nothing is more clearly
and indispu;ably established than that Hostel
ter's Stomach Bitters will eradicate dyspepsia in
all its stages. The true policy however is to ex-
tinguish it in the first stages with this whole
some, powerful, and infallibe tonic and altera-
tive. 1t is easier to quench spark than a fame
and it is easier to cure dyspepsia when it is first
developed, than when it has made Roadway by
neglect, and become complicated with other all
ments. There is not the shadow Of a doubt that
the bitters are as directly antagonstic to dyspep-
STA as water is to fire. There are thousands OF
cases on record proving this fact. The remedy
is safe and agreeable. All the liquors of COM
merce prescribed as stimulants, leave a sting be-
hind. But the sting is taken out Of the spiritu-
Gus basis of this great remedy by vegetable me
dicatiOn, and, moreover, the stimulant thus me
Dictated is of exceptional purity. OF all tOnics
taken as safeguards or remedies for fever and
ague, bilious remttents and other fall epidemics,
it is the only one that can uniformly be depended
upon. nOv2leOdlw&w1t

ACHURCH AND THEATRE.
A Prominent Clergyman on their Re-
sDectiNe Infiuences.

sDetNlNe
Rev. DR.. Bellows writes to the hdepend-
eylt that he goes TO the theatre sometimes,
and somewhat sarcastiCally continues: "But
the worst of il is, our conscience is so de-
filed that we feel quite as innocent and out
of harms way in somestheatre, as we do IN
some churches. That is to say we find very
had actors in both, and occasional clowns in
the pulpit, and grave and serious gentlemen
in the theatre. And we see people going to
schurch with all their Oridliness-dlamonds
and lace and tueks and frillS-upon them,
and saving with the most beautiful acting IN
tbeworld lord, be merciful to us miserable
sinners; and we can't, for all our pains, help
for a moment asking If it isn't the theater
And thea at the play We sometimes get so
wrought In with noble eloquence and hero
ism, that we feel more tharr>nsually like
Drawing and making a church out cf the
Mace. But we confess that it is not our
moral Improvement that carries us TO the
theater, more ttrsr-it is that which rolls Mr..
and Mrs. Veneer along in gildcd harness to
the church door, and deposits gold chain
and pair Of immaculate yellow kids on the
new, at the other end Of which sits mass
of Valencienneslace,w with an exquisite final
of afur and feathers atop, and a woman
inside TO keep them in their proper places
aad full display. This comes under
the head of dramatic scenery, we
-opine, or theatrical properties. Then,
again, we hear SO much Of the
same music in lie church and the the
alter that we can't always tell which IS
which. We find a set Of funny fellows
coming forward in the operahouse, and
singing some sweet choral or midnight
serendde; and 10, the very same persons
for aueht We know, are singing it again,
with becoming gravity, to some very solemn
words. in the church we 60 to the next
Sunday.
