Periodic ni.oraer.

The paroxysmal maladies which are characterized
by heat and cold prevail extensively at this season,
and 1t is curious fact that in many parts of the
country where they are prevalent, other diseases,
that bear no resemblance to fever and ague or re-
mttent fever, assume periodic type. Thus, In
many sections infested with chills and fever rheuma
tism, neuralgia, hysteria diarrhea, &C., sometimes
become intermittent, thereby indicating that they
have been engendered by the poisonous exhala-
tons which produce the first named disease.
In all these masked cases Of ague-for such they
well in the regular intermittents the most
safe and reliable remedy that can be administered s
Hostetter's Stomach Btters. Neither quinine nor
arsenic are needed Both are in the highest degree
dangerous and to leave sad traces of their
poisonous action In thesystem, whether they arrest
the paroxysms or not In many instances all the
so-cslled specifics Of the regular materia medica
utterly fail to 'break up Intermittent land remit
tent disorders But the great vegetable Tonic never
falls. The spasm Of the minute blood vessels which
the chill is the result of nervous weakness
produced by the facilitating operation of an I'M
wholesome atmosphere and the tone and vigor given
to the nervous system by the Bitters, enable it to
throw off the disease The wiser policy however, is
to anticipate attacks of this nature by arousing all
the latent energies of the body at the commence
ment of the moist and chilly season, with this in
comparable antidote. By pursuing this course, in
termittents, remttents, rheumatism collie, bilious
ness, dyspepsia and pulmonary affections may al
ways be prevented. - As FET

become very great.
We earnestly advise the President to lose no
time in identifying his administration with this
great measure. While some bigoted protec-
tionists might oppose it, on the ground that the
admission of sugar without duty would injure
few sugar plantations in Louisiana, yeteven the
great body of infant manufacturers which are
now supplied with pap in the national orphan
asylum of protection could have no objection to
it, And surely in the conflict between free trade
principles and protective fallacies, no better
practical test could be devised to determine
which are for the nations good than this ex-
pertinent. As lifelong advocates of the eco
nomcal doctrines of freedom, we would cheer
fully set our hopes of their speedy acceptance
by this nation upon the brilliant success of such
a treaty; and be content to begin the whole
weary inquiry and struggle anew, if our trade
with Cuba should not increase in its value to
this country and in its contributions to our
growth and prosperity, far more rapidly than
any other tax-burthened branch of our COM
mprCp.

Ogdensburg in Politics.

The PRESS claims to be good anti Ogdens-
burg paper, as papers go. Drawing the I'M
minent risk of pecuniary loss, and neglecting
the discussions and the active opposition of
those who hitherto have been its most pow
erful and influential supporters, it has oppos-
ed the loan of the city's credit on principle, as
most wicked and pernicious scheme ,calcula-
ed to enrich the few at the expense of the
many. But it has not been able to see
that the Ogdensburg question has any
place in politics, and it I'd has stud
iously endeavored to keep the two
things having no natural relations to each
other entirely separate. But all to no pur-
pose. Men who are not opposed to the loan
on principle, but who see in the effort to Sc
cure it an opportunity to make political capt
tai, have by persistent labor injected an in
credible amount of Ogdensburg into our local
politics. 1t matters not that it can make no
sort of difference in the fate of the loan,
whether the Mayor and City Council are for
or against Ogdensburg. 1t makes no differ
ence that the question of Observation-Disclosures
is just as relevant to the present situation.
The Democratic political managers arbitrari-
ly determined that the Ogdensburg issue
must be brought struggling and sq,ii1hing in
to controversy to which it is an utter strang-
er; and here 1t is. sqoIn.t % ago2 -l'7i 20 7
Being here, we are ready to meet it. We
claim that the Republicans have as good an
-Ogdensburg ticket as the Democrats. A
correspondent in whom we have conf
nj A
the Democratic candidate for Mayor, is but a
recent convert to the true faith, and that he
became so on compulsion. 1t is known that
nine of the Democratic nominees for the
Council are of the Ogdensburg persuasion.
The President of the Ogdensburg road, Gen..
Anderson, its attorney and leading advocate,
ex-Mayor Putnam, and nearly all the
leading Democrats give Mr.. Cleaves and the
rest ofthe Democratic ticket their active and
earnest support. Dosen't the president of
the road know who its friends are? Isn't
Mr.. Putnam likely to have correct idea as
to who will look sharpest after the interests of
the suppliant corpofation2 They and their
Democratic friends are better pleased with
Cleaves than with Kingsbury. Isn't there a
good deal of significance in the decided pref
erence of men to whom Ogdensburg is the
paramount consideration 3 alisli -.-.-5
We repeat, that it makes no differance-not
the slightest-as to the fate of the Ogdensburg
loan, who is Mayor. But if voters ,oiU con-
slider that matter in connection with the
election to-day, Kingsbury and the Republican
ticket will deserve their suffrages unless they
conclude to vote Democratic ria Morgan in
stead of directly. 'r.ma,.l,j DE-. y

AFTER reading in the Kennebec Journal a
full report of the speeches at the mutual adj
miration session of the Legislature which al

the members had taken half the pains to do
right while the session was in progress that
they did to keep each other in countenance

hours, it would have been much better for

THE editorial correspondent Of the SUNDAY
Star closes his running comments ON the
Legislature by referring to ''the day when
there shall be no more Nox." It is sad to
contemplate SO deplorable a deprivation. But
how riotously the pronoun of the first person
singular would celebrate its emancipation
No doubt it has appreciated the unequalled
affection, the clinging fondness, the steady re-
nance of the good ''Nox," but it is weary
task for one poor vowel to tell for so many
weeks what 'P' thought, what opp felt, what
"I' knew and said and saw-how "P' slept,
how ''P' eat my steak,-when sp' raised
'my'' statesmanlike voice in debate. how
''P' held the House spel-bound and carried
"my'' just weight and found 'smy'' true level
and my true bigness. Wehave often seen the
Objectionable pronoun put to its trumps for a
vacation, but this is the first time within our
knowledge that it has been condemned to real
penal servitude. ,.a.s ner s.

The passage of the Japanese embassy through
our city has caused its little wave of temporary
excitement, and all is again quiet on the shore
of Lake Michigan. The tawny visitors, with
hard names and high titles, have been among
the ruins to-day, exploring with curious inter
est the rising of the city from it's ashes. The
men are somewhat intelligent in their appear
ance, but their physiognomy is singularly va
ried. Some have the general features of a
North American Indian, others the Chinese
type of countenance, while others have quite a

men and boys, who have come to this country
for an education. Five misses, ranging from
eight years to sixteen, are also here for the
same purpose. They are not particularly beau

theless quite good looking Especially was I

ed. Miss Onyeda, the eldest. did not appear
wholly sef-possessed, evidently not quite &C.
tustomed to the American dress which she has
to-day put on for the first time. .rbusg vi
These young ladies are the first that have ev-
er been sent abroad for an education; indeed the
first of their nation whom it has ever been pro-
posed to educate at all. -.st i1-EC
Mr.. De Long assured me that the Micado had
consented to his proposal to take these Misses
to America for an education, with some mis-
giving, and as an experiment. For that reason
he did not send representatives of the reigning
family-but daughters of the late dynasty--who,
when educated, might return as teachers of the
princesses of the1 Micado's court.
Mr.. and Mrs De Long have the disposal of
them, and are looking for suitable school in
which so place them. Prominent among the
institutions in view, for that purpose, are Vas
sar college in New York, and Ferry Hall, at
Lake Forest near this city. The party go east
tonight ON their tour of observation, to be pre-
scented first of all to our Micado at Washington.
Here in Chicago, our greatest wonder is

Of its destruction, at least about its business

In two large manufacturing establishments
in this city thoroguh canvass of the employ
ees was made by the Democratic proprietors
on Saturday, for the purpose of determining
how they were likely to vote. If they ans
wered that they should vote for Cleaves, moth
ing further was said. If, ON the other hand,
they frankly avowed their preference for
Kingsbury, all the influence that the persua-
sions and arguments of an employer have over
an employee was exerted to change the hon
est decision. 1t is only the fear that honest
men may lose their situations which deters us
from disclosing the names of the gentlemen
who are theoretically labor-reformers, but
practically hold that capital should control
even the political opinions of laboring men.

THE AdUertiser's attitude in the present
political crisis is SO eminently judicial as to
extort universal admiration. A commission

whether its editorial of Saturday evening was

ticket-or neither-or all three. 1t is proba-
