~ Charles Johnson, who cut his wife's
throat in Georgetown, in September last,
was sentenced on Tuesday to be hung on
the 10th ofDecember. The accused stood
with the sentence, showing no signs of e.
motion, except that his lips, which are the
striking feature of his face, grew more and
more compressed, as though he were max
ing great efforts to restrain the flow of tears
that filled his eyes. In rejecting the mo-
ton for new trial which had been made,
Judge Humphreys said that if all the wo-
men North and South who lived with per-
SONS other than their husbands during the
war were to be killed, the number slain
would exceed the number slain in the war.

Through Night to Light

Scattering as the returns are from all
parts of the Union this morning, and
vague as in many respects they necessari-
ly must be, they indicate, nevertheless,
that the people have concluded to give
General Grant another lease of power and
risk the consequences. When Mr.. Bnck-
alew was defeated in Pennsylvania by a
series of frauds so bold and audacious as
to have no parallel in our political history,
the reelection of Grant for a second term
seemed to us foregone conclusion. We
accept the result; and if we say now that
the popular will has not been fairly, hon
estly and justly expressed, it is simply be-
cause we believe that thousands of voters
in the closely contested States have been
deluded or debauched by an Administra-
ton entrenched in power, reeking with
corruption, and having at its command
all the means and appliances whereby its
power may be perpetuated indefinitely.
But, by whatever arts and devices the re-
suit may have been achieved, it does not
become us, as good citizens, to despair of
the Republic.
We must close up our ranks, reorganize
our forces, and enter upon the contest a.
new; unhasting, unresting, steadfast in
the faith of the principles we maintain,
and bold in the consciousness of right.
1t would serve no good purpose to NOR
alize over the past. The past is behind

The Warning has been Needed.

Since the exposure of the attempts made by
certain INSCRIPTIONS local dealers, to palm off
their coarse astringents, made from cheap and
impure matrials, in the place of the great ma
tional tonic, Hostetters Stomach Bitters, pub
lie opinion has set strongly against these en-
prizes and their preparations. Their occupa-
ton is gone, or soon will be. When light is let
into deception it soon wits down. Persons who
trife with their own health, by using unknown
preparations, with no guarantee to sustain
them, when an established specific, proven by
twenty years experience to be exactly what it is
claimed to be, is within their reach, are sure to
repent their temerity. Many have done so in
this instance, but it is hoped that the the truth
plainly spoken has arrested the evil. In the de-
mand for the leading protective and restorative
medicine of America was never so great as it has
been this season. From the fever and ague dis
tricts of the west southwest, and south, it is
literally overwhelming, and it may be said of
the advices from all parts of the country of the
cures it is effecting in dyspepsia, bilious COM
plants, and chronic constipation, that ''their
names is legion.' Every where the sick and
feeble seem to have realized the Importance of
holding fast that which is good, /" and ofavodi-
ing what is spurious and dangerous.
The numerous "Bitters," under various
names, which mercenary dealers endeavor to
substitute for Hostetter's Stomach Bitters should
be avoided for their own sakes, by the sick and
the public at large. Hostetter' S Bitters are pro-
durable in bottles only, and never sold in bulk.

The Baltimore and Potomac Depot.

The Baltimore and Potomac Depot.
The work of driving piles for the foun-
dation of the new Depot Of the Baltimore
and Potomac Railroad, at the corner of B
and Sixth streets, Washington, commenc-
ed on Saturday last. For the next two or
three days the pile-driving will be expert
mental, in order to discover how far the
piles must be driven to stand the weight
they will have to bear without sinking
After this has been ascertained, the work
will proceed brislly, as new pile-driver
will be brought into play. The motive
power of this engine is obtained by means
of hammer falling on percussion car
fridge placed on the top of the pile. The
hammer of the driver, falling on the pile
explodes the cartridge, the force of which
explosion acts both upon the hammer and
the pile, sending the former up and forcing
the pile down.

The Late Capt. Leonard Marbury.

In noticing the death of Capt. Leonard
Marbury, which we announced last week,
THE Alexandria Gazette says: "He was
well knwn to most of our citizens, having
lived in this place the greater portion of
his life. He commanded merchant ship
from this port for many years, and was dis
tinguished for his qualities as seaman
and navigator. After retiring from the
active duties ofhis profession, he purchas-
ed Glymont, beautiful estate on the Po-
tomac, and resided there in retirement I'M
til within few months of his death. He
was man of strict honor and integrity,
of high character and of warm attach
ments. He leaves, besides a son and
daughter, and many relatives, large
number of sincere friends, who will cheish
his memory.

Joseph Ames, the artist, died, on
the 3Oth ult., in New York city. Mr.. Ames
was one of the most distinguished ofAmer-
lean artists. He was born in New Hamp-
shire, but for many years had studio in
Boston, Massachusetts,, and afterwards in
New York. Some time since he was sent
by number of Catholics to Rome to paint
a picture of Plus TX, and was the first
American artist to whom the Pope ever sat
for portrait. His picture is the original
of the well-known engraving representing
the Pope standing in full canonicals. Mr..
Ames painted the original ofthe death-bed
of Webster, the engraving of which is
found in almost every print store in the
country.

Enizootic and Endemic.

A variety of words have been coined to
give scientific expression to different ideas
of the character of the disease. The tech
nical term "epizootic" is applied in gen
eral way to pestilence among beasts as
the term epidemic" is applied to people,
though the latter term is not improper
when applied to community of animals
of any kind The specific names given to
the disease are nearly all related in defni-
ton, and as a general thing indicate infu-
enza, complicated with something else, as
lung disease, sore throat, &c. Epizootic
influenza has hitherto been unknown in
this country, though in Europe the disease
among brutes has often been the forerun-
ner of the disease among men. The cpl
demic influenza Of 1887 affected nine-tenths
of the human population of Europe, and
was very fatal; in 1929 it traVersed all Eu-
rope, leaving an unusual prevalence of
chronic bronchitis and consumption. 1t
was also very severe in 1890, 1924, 1926
and 1926. 1t has been known to make the
circuit of the entire globe Prevailing US
ually about six weeks in any locality, I'M
til it exhausts its proper material, it affects
about equally persons of all ages, though
most frequently those between sixteen and
sixty years, and all varieties of tempera-
ment and constitution. Many theories
have been given as to the cause of epidemic
influenza, but all the facts touching the
disease lend probability to the more re-
cent suggestion that the peculiar irritant
is ozone, this modified or active oxygen
being very variable ingredient in the at
mosphere, and supposed by its excess to
originate influenza, while its absence is at
tended by Asiatic cholera.
In answer to letter of inquiry in regard
to the treatment of sick horses, Mr.. John
D. Stewart has received letter from Mr..
Charles w. Bellows, of New York, giving
some plain and apparently practical direc-
tions which he has successfully employed,
as follows:
"Our treatment is as follows: Take the
feed from the horses on the first appearance
of the disease and then blanket them
Give them warm mash, and if they refuse
to eat that, then put few oats with the
mash, and every four hours give ten drops
of aconite and belladonna alternately. Rub
the glands with equal parts of ammonium
and arnica. Some use mustard; both are
good. I keep the nostrils sponged when
ever they need it, if it is every fifteen min
utes. I mean by taking the feed away
from them,' the oats and hay. If give
any hay at all, wet it. You ask if mules
are affected; 1 have seen quite number,
but they do not labor so hard under the
complaint as horses"

~ Mrs. Woodruff and Miss Claf1in
have stumbled into very perilous posi-
ton, and one that they will hardly get out
of except with an earnest conviction that
they had better sin no more The Grand

they were remanded to Jail for trial in de-
fault of $4,000 bail.

H|The municipal elections Throughout
England, on Friday last, resulted in heavy
Conservative gains, which are attributable
to the passage, by Parliament, and an en-
forcement of the licensing act. Much dis
satisfaction was expressed at the working
of the new ballot act At some of the poll
ling places the voting was so slow that
many persons were unable to cast their
ballots before the hour arrived for closing
the polls.

in Philadelphia, Baltimore and Wash

Triumphant for TKenty Years.--M


than twenty years ago the Mustang Liniment
made it's debut in the West. Its cures of the
various external diseases of horses and cattle,
astonished the planters and farmers of the Mis-
sissippi and Ohio Valleys, and demand for it
sprung up which necessitated its manufacture
on an extensive scale. Soon the discovery was
made that it was grand specific for rheumat-
ism, govt, neuralgia earache, toothache, and
other external ailments of mankind. Then it
was tried as healing, pain killing application,
in cases Of outward injury, such cuts, bruises,
burns, spasms, &C., and was found equally SER
viceable. The fame of the new remedy for some
of the most painful ills that affiict mankind and
the lower animals, spread rapidly, and Mustang
Liniment soon took rank in every State and
Territory of the Union as a standard cure.

,aThe result of the election on
Tuesday, from the news received by us
SO far, by yesterdays mail, seems to be
beyond doubt the defeat of the Liberal
ticket, and the re-election of Grant, the
representative Of the Radical element
OF. the Countrywide party built up
upon sectional prejudioes and hate, and
which ;perpetuates its power by keep
ing alive the bitter and yindictive feel
ingsengendered by the war, and by the
exercise of unconstitutional and .arbi-
trary powers, usurped during it's con-
tihdance. From the returns so far re-
ceived, the whole Northern and West
ern vote has been given to Grant, whilst
nearly the. whole Southern vote has
been cast for Greeley5-the, whole, in
fact, except where # is under carpet
bag and negro rule If this result was
the fair and legitimate repression of
the popular sentiment, although deep
lySlissppeinted, seeould willingly sub
NIT, and advise graceful acquiescence
until another appeal could be made to
the ssebef, second thong Of the peo-
pie. But as certainly as we before be-
Ievea Grantand his corrupt faction
were ID the minority in the country,
do we still believe such totbe the fact.

has so resulted from the State elections
in South Carolina, Pennsylvania, Ohio
and Indiana. The Conservatives fail
ed in these elections partly from the
notorious and undisguised frauds of
the party in power; and partly from
their own culpable failure to vote, in
fuenced by blind and weak adhesion
to former party organizations, and po-
litical prejudices, rather than by their
reason and Judgment. What did it
matter, so far as mere name and men
were concerned, if the principles that
actuated them, and the policy they ad-
vocated, were truthfully held and main
tanned by the Cincinnati and Balti-
more nominees and their party? The
effect of these elections upon the float
ing vote and place-hunters, always
watching for the stronger side, the des-
pondency caused in those who look not
beyond the surface of events, and the
apathy and prejudices of others, foster
ed by defeat, all combined to bring a.
bout the defeat of Tuesday. But it is
useless to indulge in vain regrets. Let
us all rather, believing that success
was within our grasp, had we been
united and active, seek to forget the
causes that led to inaction and failure
of general effort. Let us seek to
bind the liberal and conservative men
of the country together in a common
organization that will lead to unity of
action, vigilance and activity, and to
final success. True, it will be four
years before another opportunity ar
rives to elect President; but in the
meantime the Congress can be chang
| ed; State governments can be reclaim
ed and added to the already large and
increasing number wrested from the
Radicals; and county and municipal
direction of their own local affairs
maintained by their own proper inhab-
itants and taxpayers. The movement
which led to Greeley's nomination had
a deeper foundation than mere party
formation, or political scheming. It
is the inception of returning reason,
and the ''sober, second thought" of the
masses which will eventually but sure
ly, drive corrupt and vindictive men
now in power from their places; and
which will restore the people of all sec
lions to their rights; will find new safe
guards to the Constitution; will reform
the broken Union and re-establish such
commercial and financial policy as
will lead to the common prosperity of
the whole country. "
