Mr.. Samuel Bell, of w. T.. Schmertz d.

ers, 81 Fifth avenue. Pittsburgh, Pa, has
been afflicted with chronic rheumatish for
thity years, from his right hip to his foot,
having to use a crutch and a cane, at times
so painful as to utterly incapacitate him
from attending TO his business. Having
tried every remedy known, without effect,
except Gilliland's Pain Killer, he was
finally induced to try it. A second applica-
ton enabled him TO lay aside his crutch,
and third effected permanent cure. Mr..
Bell is a popular and well-known citizen,
is a living monument of the efIacacy of
that great medical discovery, Gillilands

object of which was to assist the rnfor-
tunate children, and to take them out Of

they were misused and compelled either
to beg or steal.
"Let me-" said she, give q night's
performance for these poor children; but
We will have double prices.
Such a performance vas given, and
returned large proceeds. When she was

WE are glad to announce this morning
the triumph of the reform Republicans in
the selection of the Speakership of the
House at Albany, New York. The nomi-
nation of Hon. Henry Smith, of Albany,
may be considered a triumph of the Grant
IinoeS-Conkling men, who have made a
bitter war upon Thomas G. Alvord, the
IribNne-Fenton-V Vanderbilt candidate. AS
the speaker appoints the important COM
mittees of the House, the election of Mr.
Smith insures a vigorous prosecution of
the war on the Tammany thieves and
their judges in New York city.

We gave few days ago statement of
the somewhat similar circumstances un-
der which Senator Schurz secured the APP
pointment of Mr.. Jussen, his brother-in-
law,.to the most remunerative position
within the gift of the revenue bureau
collector at Chicago. With what con-
sistency does this stiekler for propriety in
official conduct, accuse the President of ne
potism? Having secured from Mr..
Lincoln an important foreign ap-
pointment upon the ground that
he "contrOlLed tlCo millions Of German
UoterS," and having exacted from the Re-
publican National Committee some two
| hundred dollars for every speech delivered
during the campaign of 1S60-contrary to
the original agreement-both demands
based upon the most degrading ideas of
claims to public service-with what pro-
priety does this champion for civil service
reform question the Presidents sincerity
or motives in his real effort to give the
people. honesty and capacity in public po-
sition?
We have heretofore frequently based the
Presidents claims to public confidence
upon the fidelity and ability with which
he has discharged his responsible duties,
We have now examined the alleged.a acts OF
improperly and judged these acts by the
standard of the accusers, and we insist that
they afford no reason to change the verdict
based upon the claims first presented.
