Mysterious Disappearance OF Three
Married Ladies.
A New York dispatch Of Wednesday
saws: The police are in possession OF
the facts OF three mysterious disappear.
ances. In each case the missing per-
sons are married women, Of considerable
personal attractions, highly connected
and devoted to their families and hus-
bands. The first case is that OF Mrs.
Esstwick, a young married lady, resid.
ing at No. q Eighth avenue. She LEFT
home for a walk on Thursday last, and
has not been seen or heard Of since by
her distracted husband and anxious
relatives. Another case is that Of Mrs
Stiles, the young wife of Mr.. Stiles, one
of the proprietors Of the Metropolitan
Hotel at Long Branch, who has
been missing from her home, al
275 West Thirty-eighth street, since
Thursday of last week. She went out
to make q purchase, and most diligenl
search since made in every direction has
been unavailing. She is said to have
been very greatly attached to her fsmi
", and there is 10 reason Why che
should voluntarily absent herself. Sill
another case is that of Mrs. Sarah De-
vine, q fine looking middle aged lady
who resides at No, IS Troy avenue
Brooklyn, and who has been mysteri'
ously missing for 3 week. The polict
acknowledge themselves puzzled. On'
of the most singular features of thu
whole matter is that, although tht
ladies were unscquainted with each
other, all three disappeared from theil
homes, and without the knowledge o
their friends, on Thursday last and o
the same hour.

THERE is not much use in arguing on
the day O. a Presidential election the
political issues OF the campaign. The
voters have long since made up their
minds upon the subject and ranged
themselves with one or the other Of the
great parties that are struggling for the
mastery The chic thing to be done
to-day is to bring out the vote. There
is in this county and State a consider
able majority in favor of GREELEY and
Brown. Let us see to it that their votes
are polled. Many are over>confdent
and some are apathetic. The former
should remember that if they stay away
from the polls there is danger that the
Radicals will carry the State; and the
latter may generally be induced to vote
if personal appeal is made 10 them
by some friend in whom they have con,
fdence. 1t behooves every man who is
anxious for governmental reform and
wko wants to see peace and harmony
restored between the several sections of
our country, not only to vote for the
Liberal ticket himself, but to see that
his neigbbors and friends vote also.
Every man has some influence; let it
all be exerted to-day in behalf of the
good cause.

THr.npsTNEss AnaUMENT.

Almost the only argument that 10
used here in favor of GRANTS retention
in Office is that . change of Fedora
administration might produce some de
rangement in the business affairs OF the
country. 1t is, however, impossible for
the Radicals to show how or why bust,
ness interests would suffer from 9 change
in the administration. Surely the infu.
sion of little more of personal hon.
esty into the service the Government
could work no serious detriment to the
business men of the nation, and the
country must be singularly barren OF
financial talent if no other man can be
found who will manage the national
treasury as well as Mr.. BOUTWELL,. In
fact, it seems to be generally conceded
that even in the event of GRANTS re-
election change will be made in the
head Of the Treasury Department, that
department whose policy NEST directly
affects all business concerns.
But, even il there were any force in
the argument, which there is not, when
would il cease to be applicable? 1t
may be urged four years hence as well
as now and four years thereafter as well
as then. 1t is in fact an argument
against any change in the administra-
ton of the government and is the chief
ground upon which the advocates OF
hereditary monarchy rely for the sup
port OF kiDgly authority. AS applied
to the Presidency of the United States
it proves too much" and should be
dropped at once and forever. The ex-
perience of the nation and the judg-
ment of our wisest statesmen concur In
establishing the doctrine that the Pres
ident should be restricted to a single
term of office. The efficiency OF the
public service demands it, and certainly
the interests of the business men will
not be impaired thereby.

one iota of his principles, nor has he

PerniciOus Purgatives.

The brilliant idea of half century ago
that the weak and ailing could be bled
blistered and salivated into condition o;
health and yigor is happily exploded but
violent and prolonged purgation is still, to
some extent, in vogue. We have impos-
tors who are daring enough to offer to the
world, as tonics and restoratives the most
destructive catharticS, unmodihed by
single stimulating, soothing or restorative
element. Compare the operation OF one or
these terrible nostrums with that of Hos
letters stomach Bitters, in which are COM
bined the three great curative elements-a
tonic, an Alternative and an aperient. The
former completely paralyzes the vital
forces, so that nature can make no resist
ance to disease; the latter sustains the
strength OF he patient, while IL RESI- ores the
suspended functions OF the secretory Or
gans and relieves the bowels without vio-
Ience or pain It is simply a choice be-
tween restoration and prostration.

In this State the Radicals are relying
apon the negligence and apathy of the
Democrats, rather than upon their
own strength. They know that a ma
jority of the people o. West Virginia
would infinitely prefer to have HORACE
GREELEY elected President Of the United
States, rather than U. S. GRANT. But
they hope to catch the Democrats nap
ping and thus steal the electoral vote OF
the State. 1t must not be permitted.
Let the Dem )cratic voters rally In their
strength and disappoint the hopes OF
their adversaries. Ii these men were
permitted to have their will, no Demo-
crat would be allowed to vote at all.
Remember what you have suffered in
the past from Radicsl intolerance and
see that they are not permitted to OBJ
tain any advantage over you now.

THE fourth section Of the ID Article
OF the Constitution OF the United States
provides that "The Congress may de-
ternine tue time of choosing the cleo
tors and the day on which they shall
give their votes; which day shall be
the same throughout the United States.
Ia the. face of this provision Of the Con-
stitution of the United States, special
act Of Congress has been passed fixing
The Presidential election in the State of
Louisiana this year on the first Mon
day in November, while the other
States vote for electors on the Tuesday
after the first Monday. 1t is stated
that this act was passed because the
State election in Louisiana had been
fixed for the first Monday and it was
thought desirable to avoid the expense
OF two elections coming so close togeth.
er, as would be the case if the Presi-
Dental election in that State were held
on the same day as it will be elsewhere.
Accordingly the election for President
and Vice President of the United States
was held in Louisiana yesterday. At
the time of present writing the result
is not known, though there is ground
for suspicion that if it has not resulted
in accordance with the wish OF the
GRANT men an effort will be made for
its exclusion from the count because
the special act of Congress in relation
to the day of election was not in com-
pliance with the Constitution. OF
course, if Louisiana votes for GRANT
it will be held by the Radicals that the
election was in every respect legal and
regular.
