Reuben Porter, the great medical
electrician and conqueror of diseas-
es, arrived Sunday night and took
suit of rooms at the Herring
House in the city. We have had a
call from the distinguished gentle
man, and are pleased to say, that
both his appearance and his CONVEX
sation, like the numerous testimo-
mails from every quarter of the
Unicn, fully sustain his preten-
sions as literally conqueror of
disease.
That there is In Nature semc-
where a remedy for every i'll to
which flesh is heir, is an assump-
ton sustained alike by reason and
a sense of Gods goodness to man.
And yet there are some i'll, such as
paralysis for instance, which are
given up by the profession as be-
yond the power Of human agency
and skill. To such cases. hopeless
as they may be, DIR. Potter proposes
to bring relief. As before remark

tained.-IWaco Examiner, % ult.

A Good Sign.

Colonel I. Z. Manlove, an ex-confederate
soldier and Democratic editor in Texas,
thus gives his reason for abandoning the
Democratic and joining the Republican
party:
Time and experience have forced the con-
viction upon my mind that democracy has
ceased to be. No longer animated by those
patriotic impulses which, in other and hip
pier days, achieved so much in liberty's be-
half, its self Reconstructed leaders have prbs-
tituted the cardinal principles of republican
government In mad scramble for place
and power, and oblivious to the solemn
truth that the appeal to arms has been made
and lost, still strive to evoke from a dead
nations tomb the shadowy phantoms of an
irrevocable past.
Kepubicanism, on the other hand, meets
the living issues of the time in which we
live. Though not free from blemish in it's
long lease of power, it binds itself indis-
solubly to truth and duty, espouses as it's
own the interests of suffering humanity
everywhere, and bids defiance to all the
powers of the universe to sever it from civil
and religious freedom. Permitting the
dead past to bury the dead" it looks with
unfaltering trust to the future, wherein its
grand mission is to be accomplished and
peace and liberty become the portion of all.
