Also the hill to enable the people OF
the United States to part'clpste IN the
advantages OF the International Ex-
position at Vienna in 1873, approprlat-
ing 100000.
After an explanation Of the measure
bv Mr.. Banks, Mr.. Shellabarger, OF
Ohio. suggested an objection to the Oil
based upon the fact that the patent laws
Of Austria were OF such a character
that tbey would afford no protection to
American inventors. and the result o.
their contributing to the Exposition
would be to expose their inventions 10
he limited without any recompense to
| them.
Mr.. Banks replied that provision
was being made to remedy that obJec'
ton.
nroposed had been aualyzed in the
Scientific american, from which ne
gained his information on the euo]ect'
and that it WAS there shown that the
remedy would only increase the mis-
chief. o
Mr. Banks said the Austrian Govern
ment had already guaranteed q cet1'h'
cate of protection to patent rights up 10
a certain time, and their best mechanl-
cal authorities in England were OF tne
oninion that protection was q sutflc'ent
Sparantee, and q law had been made to
fnlIv protect and satisfy the inventors
of this country. The Secretary OF
State expected, confdentislly an
annroysl OF that project by the Aus
TRAN and HUNGARIAN Governments
otherwise he (Mr. Banks), had no
Jonbt that the Secretary would refrain
from 'expending any Of the apPropriS-
ton. l.h. hill
a. solely for the benefit OF ind'v,dual
snternrise. He moved to amend oy
striking out the appropriations.

Yesterday Mr.. Hswley's postmaster, here
threatened that the Germans should be
punished for voting the Liberal ticket. To-
day We hear that measures are being inau-
guratsd by The GRANTEES iu Davenport to
punish every German saloon. keeper on eV-
cry possible OCCASION because the Germans
voted the Liberal ticket. The day after
election the Davenport Gazette said The
result realizes our worst feArs. The grea.
body of the German Republicans have
swung away from the party with which
they have been identified on national issues. -
Aud now, because thy have asserted their
own right Of free suffrage, the GRANTEES pro-
pose to punish them on every possible Occs
sion. lEis our opinion that GrAntism will
fail to accomplish its object

is sacred from its blighting influence. No age
is exempt from It's death dealing shafts. The

are food fer this common enemy of mankind.
The white haired patriarch whose life of tenn
perRncs has rendered his system inpervious to
the attacks of other ills, and whose good deeds
prepared him for the enjoyment Of life's calm
evening, finds consumption fastening its fAngs
upon his vitals, aud tearing him from q world
