The President on the Houard Case,

DR.. .Houard, a citizen of the United
States, was recently convicted by a Gu
ban Court Martial and sentenced to eight
years in the chain gang. Application has
been made to the President to release him.
He has sent message to Congress as fol-
lows
'The strong point which prevents the
Intervention of this government in behalf
of DR.. H0uard from becoming etficacious
for his release is the fact that he has been
regularly tried and found guilty by a duly
constituted tribunal, in the island OF
Cuba.
"If it were in the power of DR. Houard
or his friends to put this department in
possession of facts that would impugn the
integrity Of the proceedings of that tribun-
al, or deny the competency to act in the
premises, such facts would be urged 10 the
best advantage, but none such are offered
with the exception Of the er,pdrte declara-
ton OF single untrustworthy witness,
who now declares that he gave testimony
against DIR. Houard which was false.n

REPUBLICAN, MEETING AT KINGSTON

Resolutions striking tn the Right Dfrec-
ton.
The Republican meeting at Kingston,
April LIST, was largely attended, 5. l..
Childress, Esq, presided, and w. S. Pat
ton acted as secretary.
The following delegates were named for
the Nashville Convention:
7. T. Shipley, j. II. johnson, VIM. d.
Nelson, w. b. Staley, l.. NJ. Wester and
j. =. Kindrick.
On motion, Capt. William Rule, of the
Knoxville CHRONICLE, was requested to
| represet our county in the Convention, in
the event none of the delegates appointed
| should attend.
The resolutions introduced by Mr.. Pat
ton were appropriate, and might serve as a
model for some county conventions.
After endorsing the National Admins
tration, re-affirming time-honored Ropub-
lican principles these very pertinent reso-
lutions followed, and will be endorse
everywhere:
That the evidence of partisan envy, mall
ice and spite given by our present Legis-
lature in its utter, wanton disregard of and
wilful trampling upon the rights, interests
and convenience of the people, in their
miserable gerTynadrdering of the Congress
sional Districts of the State, is but one
more proof of the spirit which aninatcs
the rebel Democracy, and deserves the
scorn and contempt of all high-minded
men and patriots.
We do most emphatically endorse and
approve the course of our honored Repre-
sentative in Congress, Horace Maynard,
less, patriotic statesman and Christian gen.

AND STILL ANOTHER.

CHoRPENNING CREswELL and his rob
berry of the Government Of millions
through postal contracts, is now the
sensation in Washington. CREswELL
appears TO have acted in conclusion
with the strav bidders for mail con
tracts, and then division OF the plum
der took and is now taking place. The
Washington Patriot devotes a page OF
its paper to the subject, instancing
specific frauds, and demanding inves-
tigation by Congress. 1t concludes its
article as follows:
1--WE bellows, from Mr. Cresswell
bimselfdowu to the local postmasters,
that rottenness and corruption permeate
the whole department. We believe
that for one case of fraud We have pre-
scented a hundred will be developed.
We believe that for one dollar we have
shown to be stolen a hundred other
cases Of population will be drawn to the
front. We demand not sham, but an
investigation, thorough and complete
The spirit OF reform Is abroad. Men
who sat on thrones OF gold, and whose
power extended over the land, have
been hurled from their high places by
the wrath OF an outraged and plundered
people. Other men elsewhere held as
high trust and as secure position as
Mr.. Creswell, yet, one by one, they are
surely drifting to exposure and punish
ment. Who next2 Will Congress

Warning Words.

The strength and nervous energy OF the
human body ought to be increased during
the winter, for two reasons: In the first
place, diseases OF the most deadly character
may be generated at this season; and sec
ondly, 1t is of the utmost Importance that
during the cold weather months the system
should be put in a condition to Withstand
the effects OF the spring miasma, and the
subsequent depressing heat OF summer 1t
is, therefore, advisable, in fact essential, to
tone, regulate and invigorate the digestive
and secretive organs at this period OF the
year, and OF all the stomachics and altera.
tives at present known, Hostetter's ~ omach
less, and the most agreeable. The tempera-
ture OF winter would be in itself glorious
tonic, lift did not unfortunately, bring with
IL volume of chilling moisture and un-
wholesome winds, which have q bad effect
on the skin and lungs. These must be guard
ed against, or there Is no security for health
The effect Of course of the Bitters is to give
vigor and tone to the entire Organization
the superficial muscles and nerves, as well
as the internal viscera. A regular habit OF
body IA healthy and natural flow OF bile, an
active digestion, a good appetite, pure blood,
and q vigorous circulation OF that fluid, are
among the blessings derivable from persist
emit use OF Hostetter 3 Stomach bitters, which
not only more than supplies the place
of the best tones, cathartics and antiseptics
prescribed in their separate forms by physi.
clans, but perform the three-fold work OF
IMMIGRATION, regulation and publication,

We are glad to notice and heartily
second the effort that has been inaugu-
rated in the City Council and Board Of
Supervisors for Obtaining from the
Legislature the necessary authority Tor
the formation OF q railroad bridge
company at this place. A railroad
bridge across the Ohio river is the one
thing needful to secure to the city OF
Wheeling such facilities As our growing
trade req Tires. A prime consideration
that has retarded the building OF rail
roa IL in this vicinity has been the diff
Guilty OF crossing the river, and the
drayase our merchants are compelled
to pay for the transportation OF goods
between their stores and the depot
on the Ohio side has added
heavily to the cost Ct articles shipped
or received in that way. A bridge
that should be open to all
railroad companies that choose to use
it would doubtless lead TO the estab-
lishment OF a depot OF the Cleveland
and Pittsburgh road within the city
limits; the proposed Wheeling and
Erie road; the Wheeling, Tuscarawas

likely to develop frauds and rascalities
beside which even TwEEps villsiuies

Now let the Republican journals give
