CAN'T FIJI HIS APPOINTmENrs.

From the following, which we extract
from the columns Of the Knoxville Press
ana Herald of Thursday, it will be seen
that Colonel John NJ. Fleming will not
be able TO meet his appointments as
Democratic ElectOr for the State at
Large. He says, following the list Of
appointments agreed on by him and Nj.
Lie. HOuk:
l deem II due to myself and to my political
friends TO say that, owing to a severe accident
al lniury which i received several weeks ago.
aud from which 1 am still disabled, As well as
to serious sickness in my family, 1t will be i'm
practicable for me TO attend the earlier ap-
POintmentsi In the above list-at least those for
East Tennessee. l ave so notified the Chair
OF the Executive Committee, and hope
either Senator Fowler or General Quarles will
attend, OF which due notice will be given.
No doubt General Quarles, who is in
the harness for the canvass, will respond
and assume the task. He is always in the
line Of duty, and is equal to double work.

IL VIII De seen InaL the latest majority
for the Republicans in Pennsylvania is
twenty thousand three hundred and
seventy. In the city of Philadelphia
alone there are more than that number
Of Liberal Republicans, and in the State
more than four times that number of
Republicans disaffected toward Hart
rsnft the candidate Of that party for
Governor. We confidently expect
the defeat Of that gentleman by a
majority of not less than forty
thousand. The last majority in
Indiana was a Democratic One, which,
with the aid of the Liberals, will no
doubt be largely increased. Ohio alone
is doubtful of all the great Middle States
to which the eyes of the country are di-
rected. The last Republican majority
is set down at twenty thousand one
hundred and sixty-eight. But wen this
may be overcome if the Democracy and
Liberal Republicans are the unit we
have been led to believe. Georgia will,
40 doubt, go Democratic; Nebraska
possibly. OF South Carolina we have
40 hope. Grants bayonets are g~listening
n every part Of the State, and Scott and
his thieves are sure of the overwhelming
negro vote, marshalled in their interest.

THE CONSTITUTIONAL CONVENTION

The Convention will consist Of one hun
dred and thirty three members. Ninety
nine delegates were elected in the several
Senatorial districts of the State, the ap
portionment being three for each Senator,
each voter voting for two. Twenty eight

ballot containing the names of fourteen
delegates, and the twenty eight highest
in vote declared elected Six delegates
were elected at large in the city of Phila-
delphia, each voter voting for three, the
six receiving the highest number of votes
being declared elected This is the first
instance that has arisen in the Union
where the principle of minority represent
alton has been so fully applied.
The Convention will meet at the State
Capitol on the second Tuesday of Novem
ber--one week after. the Presidential
election-when it "shall be the duty Of
the Secretary of the Commonwealth to
call the Convention to order aud to submit
all the returns Of election in his possession
and to read the aforesaid proclamation OF
the Governor, and thereupon said Con
vention shall proceed to organize By elect
ing one Of their number President and,
after the members are sworn in, such
other officers as may be needed in the
transaction Of business. "Ihe Couyen
ton will then be ready for work. 1t will
have power, under the law copyeniDg 1t,
to submit new Constitution, one amend
ed, or merely specific amendments, as
deemed proper. One third Of the mem
bers elected have right to require a
separate and distinct vote on any amend,
ment submitted The power to change
the declaration of rights is withheld from
the Convention as we'll as the right to
create and submit any proposition es-

The Conveu ton is to fix the time aud

tion or the amendments to the people,

A Remedy Suggested.

The following communication from
General Roberts, United States Army
whose experience as cavalry commander
renders his opinion in regard to horses
entitled to respect, suggests simple and
easily applied remedy for the disease
SPRINGFIELD, Mass Oct. %, 1S12.-
Mr. Bonner-Dear Sir In the spriug
of 1868 disease broke out among my
cavalry horses at Fort Sumner, New
Mexico, that appears to me identical with
that now raging among horses in our
cities, and in a very few days became an
epidemic
At first it defied all treatment, and the
great majority of the horses attacked by
it died. On examining the throats of the
dead horses, found the lining membrane
of the iarynx highly infamed and thicken
ed, and a thick mucus pus filing it, caus-
ing suffocation. ordered all horses, on
the first appearance of the disease, TO be
thoroughly rubbed between the lower
jaws and along the laryux down the neck
with spirits Of turpentne, causing very
severe external irritation and blister.
saved every horse thus treated, and
in very few days entirely broke the dis
temper and checked the epidemic.
do not doubt that thousands of horses,
where this epidemic prevails, can be saved
by adopting this treatment. 1t acts more
quickly as counterirritaut than any
other remedy | know, and relieves the
fever Of the membrane Of the larynx in
a very few hours Besides, spirits of
turpentine is always at hand, and can be
more readily applied than any other
counter-irritant. 1t should be thoroughly
rubbed in through the hair to the skin,
for distance of some twelve or fifteen
inches, under the jaws and down the neck
of the horse, immediately over the laryux
The remedy is severe, aud makes the
skin sore for several weeks, and for an
hour causes great suffering to the horse
But it acts promptly and effectively, and
in my judgment it will be found the best
and, perhaps, the only cure for this fatal
malady, causing such suffering and loss
among horses throughout the country
My love Of horses induces me to address
you, and to ask you to give to this com
munication such place in your paper as
to reach the public in the most prompt
and general way, and stay one of the
greatest misfortunes, now threatening all
communities, and destroying by thous
ands the noblest animal, created for the
service of man. Very truly yours,
b S. RoBERrs,

A CARD.
DEAR SIR,
533, OXFORD STREET, W. c.,
LONDON, Oct. 18th, 1872.

DEAR SIR,
beg respectfully TO annex
copy of Il circular as sent TO the Medicine zen
dors and others in the States and elsewhere by
two or three individuals (of little or no means),
under the style of "The New York Chemical
Company" which company had no existence
until October, 1871, and with which | have no
connection.
The more effectually to deceive, they caution
the Public as follows =
''The immense demand for 1IoLLowAY's
PILLS AND OINTMENT has tempted unprinci-
pied parties to counterfeit these valuable Medi-
cines.
''In order TO protect the Public and ourselves,
we have issued new "Trade Mark" consist
ing of an Egyptian Circle of serpent with the
letter II in the centre. Every box of genuine
'HoLLowAY's PILLS AND OINTMENT will have
this trade mark on it. None are genuine with
out it.
"To DEALERS AND JoBBERs IN DRUGS AND
MEDICINES.
I'VE call your particular attention to the
new style of "HoLLowAY's PILLS AND ONT
MENT'-none Of the old stvle are manufactured
by MS now, nor have they been for months.
We therefore caution all purchasers against re-
ceiving from any Jobbers or Dealers the old
style of goods.
Information concerning any such goods be-
ing offered will be received with thanks
'We ask the favor of all the information you
can give in regard to those counterfeits."
Now, this Honorable Company, aware that
your laws do not permit them to copy the
precise getting up of my Medicines put their
counterfeits into another form and intimate
that they adopt new label.
The object of these people in referring to the
immense demand for these Medicines is, that
it may be believed that am connected with
them.
In the interest of the public, therefore re-
specially invite you to be pleased to give an
insertion TO this letter in your paper that your
readers may not be deceived by this 'New
York Chemical Comyany's" spurious Medi-
cines.
Each Pot and Box Of my Genuine Medi-
cines bear the British Government Stamp, with
the words 'IIolloway's Pills and Ointment,
London" but they are not sold in the United
States. (Signed
