upon remembering who did call the conven-
ton and who are invited to it.. 1t was called
by Missouri Republicans who are free traders
and unwilling to endorse protective" bur-
dens for another administration; who are
bitterly opposed to the unconstitutional and
usurping legislation known as the ku-klux
and the legal-tender acts; and who protest
against what they regard as the use OF
Executive influence to obtain a particular
decision from the Supreme Court in favor of
the last-named act. And it is precisely the
Republicans who agree with this platform,
and no other, who are invited to Cincinnati.
The Tribune is the noisiest, most unrea-
soning and most unreasonable bigot in the
protectionist ranks. The Tribune has been
from the beginning the most prominent pro-
moter In the American press of that outra-
geous usurpation of municipal powers by the
federal government known as the kuklux
act; and of all the dangerous Capitalization
that follows in its train. The Tribune has
stood almost alone among Journals possessing
intelligence and claiming independence, in
the approval it has given to the most extreme
Interpretation of the Legal Tender act, and
even to the apparent packing of the Supreme
Bench in its support. In short, the most i'm
portant parts of the platform on which the
Cincinnati Convention is called are simply
dices of the Tribune.
We do not represent any party or faction,
and never have assumed the right to define
the boundaries of any. But the Cincinnati
call, throughout, certainly represents the
principles long supported by the Evening
Post better than any similar document laid
before the people for many years; and
we therefore have at least the right to call at
tention to the fact that if the principles against
which the Tribune has been fiercely
struggling for many years were struck out of
that call, most of its value and interest would
have disappeared In short, it is not we, but
the platform, the callers, the very objects Of
the Cincinnati movement which retort upon
the Tribune and its followers its own words
The Cincinnati Convention is none of their
affair. They did not call it; they are not in
vited; their presence is not desired. Let
them mind their own business and run their
own machine. Until that journal openly
retracts all that it has said upon protection,
kuklux legislation and the appointment OF
Judges Bradley and Strong, it stands on
record as the implaeable enemy of the move
ment of which it now pretends to be the chief
censor and dictator.

Mayor Hall of New York has slipped
from the meshes of the law quite smooth
ly, without any trials upon the charges
made against him. If he were the inno-
cent man that he pretends to be, this is
unfortunate for him, because the stain of
crime clings to him, and can only be oblit-
ererated by fair trial. Ifhe is the rascal
that he appears to be, he escapes prison.
We believe he is satisfied with the result,
and no doubt with. good reason. Next
comes Tweed-le-dee.

"Old Poz" Out of Place.
1t is as good as play to see how com.
pleteiy the Tribune is ruled by its invincible
passion for dictation. When it was, or
claimed to be, the mouth piece of the Re-
publican party organization, it had way of
'reading out of the party" everybody who re-
FUSED TO follow its blind wanderings AFTER
hobbies; and now that it rejects aud denoun.
ces that organization, it begins at once to
dictate who shall and who shall not attend the
liberal convention at Cincinnati Thus Il
cries aloud to all friends of the present ad-
ministration: "The Cincinnati Convention
is none of their affair. They did not call it !;
they are not invited; their presence is not
desired. Let them mind their own business
and run their own machine"

What Spring Brings with 1t.

Regarded from a medical standpoint, spring is
not the dclectable season described by venal
poets. On the contrary, its yield of intermittent
fevers bilious attacks, rheumatic pains, disorders
of the stomach, nervous complaints, and pumo-
nary diseases, is almost as large as its crop OF
volets, snowdrops and cherry blossoms The
invisible seeds of innumcrable malades rise with
the morning mists, and are scattered broadcast by
the vapors of night. Who can resist their me-
phitic influence? Certainly not the weak by
nature, or those whose nervous energies have been
overta kcd by mental physical labor, unless
they tone and invigorate their systems, and thus
enable them TO cope with the unhealthy influences
by which they are surrounded.
The only medicinal agent by which this object
can be rapidly and safely accomplished, is the
great vegetable renoyant and invigorant, Hostel.
ter's Stomach Bitters. The operation of this cele
brated specific is four-fold, 1t strengthens the di-
gestive organs, regulates the secretons, improves
the condition Of the blood, superinduces regular
habit of body, and thereby imparts such vigor and
elasticity to the whole physical structure, as to
render 1t capable of resisting the action of the
poisonous miasma, with which the spring atmos
phere Is always to some extent impregnated. Here,
tieh, ~ ready and certain means of escaping the
usoraefs prevalent at this season, III they have
aifeauy fastened upon the system) of conquering
snei M speeuliy and thoroughly. The flavor of a
doeIne Is not OF much consequence, provided it
"oes Us WoIk properly, but Of Hostetters Btters it
me- VI iariy said, that they effect cure without
o"''"s'"s tne patients sense of taste.
