Debility is term used to denote deficiency of blood
The nutrive constituents ofthe blood are in less than
their regular proportion while the waery part is in
excess Debility is of frequent occurrence 1t is IN
cident to variety of diseases. The lower limbs are
apt to be swollen The patient feeble and cannot
bear much exertion.- The circulation il irregular,
but almost always weak Palpitation of the heart is
throws the heart into the most tumultuous action
The vital functions are lahguid1y performed The
muscular strength is diminished fatigue follows mod
crate or slight exercise The breathing though quiet
when at rest becomes hurried and even painfully ag-
tated under exertion, as in in running ascending
heights &c. The nervous system is often greatly dis
ordered Vertigo, dizziness and feeling of faint

The utter, disgraceful and ridiculous fail
ure of Charles A. Dana's attempt to prove
his charges of malfeasance in office against
Secretary Robeson will have the good effect
of removing all necessity on the part of any
body to answer, refute or in any way notice
any charge made in the N. Y. Sun or by its
editor elsewhere. Mr.. Dana stands before
the American people convicted falsifer and
an unmitigated blackguard. Even the N. Y.
Tribune, which is SO ready to catch at any
thing which may seem to prejudice the ad-
ministration, is forced for very shames' sake
to repudiate this matter; and any attack up
pom President Grant or ihis Cabinet which
the Tribune will not swear by must be shabby
indeed. 1t is really refreshing to see how
fat the Vaccinations of the cabal of disap-
pointed and jealous Senators and editors-for
really there is hardly anybody else in the anti
administration ring-have fallen. Starting
Off with prodigious flourish of trumpets in
the winter and with loud demands for investi-
cations they have been met at every point by
perfect readiness to beinvestigated on the part
OF the government and by most chilling
non-concurrence in their ambitious schemes
ON the part of the people. The great reupta-
tion of Greeley and Sumner, the medium rep
utation of Schurz, Upton and Bowles and the
little reputation Of "Tray, Blanche and
Sweetheart who follow their lead, have all
been thrown into the seething cauldron; but
with all their double, double, toll and
trouble" the spell is not worked. The people
remain disgustingly apathetic and, in spite
of the intellectual gymnastics so bountifully
displayed by these sol disan .sreformers,"
persist in believing in President Grant and
the rectitude of his administration. aa

THE PR ESS.
WEDNESDAY MORNING, APRIL 10, '7s.
Congressional PrOgnostics.

O~-~6
In the First District the congressional stu
alton remains practically unchanged since
our last observations. We hear Of no new
candidates ,but we learn something of the
movements of those already announced and
believe that the contest is centering with
in narrower limits. A correspondent in the
Saco Independent over the signature of '.Un-
ion" thinks we ought to take strong ground
for some one of the contestants. We fancy
that cloud of ''Unions" would rise up to de-
nounce us should we do so. No, gentlemen,
''hands Off is our motto until after conyen-
ton; then we shall be ready to speak out ana
help the election Of the candidate py every
means in our'power. This we will say, that
the nomination is fully and fairly conceded to
York county and that Mr.. Lynch definitely
and positively declines to be a candidate for
denomination. So that all forebodings of
trouble from this quarter may be set at rest.
We think we could make a pretty good guess
as to the result but refrain from indulging in
an exhibition of our powers OF second sight,
in Difference to our established position of
'benevolent neutrality"
In the Second and Third Districts the re-
nomination and reelection of Mr.. Frye and
Speaker Blaine will be mere matters of form.
In the Fourth District Mr. Peters will un-
doubtedly be renominated without serious op-
position, if he concludes to be candidate
1t is understood that Hon. Lewis Barker has
his eye on the chances, and his movements
through the winter are construed by many as
an indication of his purpose to push his for
tunes in the country and let the city "gang
its ain gait" Gen. Hersey will not be can
didate against Peters, but, if the field is open,
ly have an overwhelming strength in the Dis
trict, as he is very popular in all parts.
All indications point to the Fifth District
as the fighting ground par excellence in the
coming campaign. Hon. F. A. Pike is un-
derstood to be donning the war paint and
feathers for the fray, He is man of great
energy, ability and political experience, and
will probably have strong following in
Washington county. Hon. William McGil-
very of Searsport is also spoken of as pros
pective candidate, but as yet we learn moth
ing of his movements. The men, however,
who attempt to unseat Mr.. Hale will have no
sinecure. he is young, vigorous, strong and
brilliant, with splendid Congressional record
behind him. His career has been eminently
creditable to himself, his District and the
State.
So much for the situation now. We shall
endeavor to keep our readers acquainted
with all changes in the political kaleido-

1T is now rumored that Senator Sumner
has announced his intention to make no fur
ther opposition to the denomination of Presi-
dent Grant, and that if the Philadelphia Con-
vention select him for the standard bearer of
the party, he will steadily labor to secure his
reelection. This must be cruel conard, for
If true it at once raises doubt as to the sani-
ty of the Massachusetts Senator. and pIaces
him in no enviable light. There is little rea-

LIE KANSAS SENATORS.
A strong delegation of Kansas Republicans
is in town to press the case against the two
Senators from that State as contained in the
report Of the legislative committee which was
presented in the Senate today. They object
to the reference of the subject to the stand
ing committee on privileges and elections,
which. in their opinion, means protracted
sleep and finally quiet interment, and urge
that special committee of three Senators.
with power to send for persons and papers,
be appointed. Senator Pomeroy did not to-
day press his own motion, made several
weeks since when the subject first came up,
for special committee, and appeared entire
ly content to have it 60 to the regular COM
mittee. The Kansas delegation say they can
produce much stronger and more positive
evidence than that before the legislative COM

penditure of $50, 200 by Caldwell to secure his

GEN. McCooK acting Governor of Dakota
has issued the following proclamation:
Information having reached the Office of the
Executive of said Territory, through various
sources, to the effect that combinations of men
have been and are now being made with view
to entering and occupying the region of country
known as the Black Hills of Dakota. which Is
within the reservation belonging to the Sioux
Indians, under the plea that said Black Hill
county has valuable mineral deposits. as we'll
as quantities of timber, fit for lumber. now
therefore, L, Edwin S. McCook, Secretary and
Actng Governor of the Territory of Datota
BY direction of the President Of the United United
States through Hon. Columbus Deiano Sanxo
tary OF the Interior, do hereby warn ali sn ~,

ty or under whatever plea or excuse onarat;nal
that any such attempt to violate our tre atu LIZ,
ulations with these Indians or disturb the neaa
of said territory by an effort to invade. occnnv
or settle upon said reservation, will not only be
illegal and likely to disturb the peace betwee the
United States and said Indians, but will be dis
approved by the government and if such efforts
are persisted in the government will use SO
much OF its civil and military power as may be
necessary to remove from this Indian TERRITORY
al persons who go there in violation of the
law. In testimony whereof have bereunto

REVIVAL OF SHIrBUnDNe.-Th ST John
Daily Tribune of April states that the build-
ing Of ships has been resumed with great en-
ergy in and around that city. No less than
3s,340 tons of wooden ships are now ON the
stocks or under contract, and as many more
VIII be built there in the course of the present
year. good ship of spruce can now be built
at St. John for $40 per ton, but So more than
rates before the war. The new sbins in nro.
gress are in part for owners in the Provinces
and in part for English owners. A rise of On
per cent on the cost of building iron vessels ON
the Clyde has created demand for wooden
ships.

The winds breathe softly TO the dying day,
And darkness hastens o'cr us silently,
Go to your rest, and sweet your dreams shall be
Kiss me good night.
AT coming day your smile to me shall be,
AS rays of sunshine on n storm-swept sea,
And if my watch be starless, touched with tears
Joy born of pain, shall rise when day appears
Kiss me good night
My soul, though, tired, is stronger than your own
Your couch isspread, and would be alone, y
I'll press the grapes though may win no wine
For one comes shadow, Tor another shine;
Kiss me good night
lind it is well, at least o n told,
One wins crown oflaurels, one of gold,
Anotler thorns, and SO the world moves on,
We will wear roses when the day shall dawn;

proachfuly.
Miss Mayo shook the tiny golden ring
lets that hung like spirals of suns hine
over her pretty forehead, while a mis-
chicvous sparkle camc into her blue cvos;
she rather seem,d to enjoy the constcrna-
tion She had created.
"Well," said Kate Mayo, II mean it.
Who wants to be drudge, in an i'll

man asks you to be his wife? My taste
is for tllread-lacc shawls and moire an

brown etone. houses Inti ichocoiate-coiored
coures, and n box at the opera, and a
French maid. Oh, I tell you, girls,

Kate Mayo spoke rs if fate were at
her own command, MS if she were crown
cd queen of her destiny. And she was,
IN so far as wit and beauty and certain
royalty of selt-posse<sion may constitute
the sccptre of ones own existence. Tall

a white rose. pure, straight features checks
just tinted with the faint delicate pink
that comes and goes like fleeting
shadow, and Il little ripe mouth that made
one think of the crimson sugar hearts
little children delight in. And Kate had
been sent up from the old Mayo farm to
sec what winter in New York would do
for her in the way of life establish
ment; and Kate had some very decided
ideas of her own upon the all-impoi tant
subject.
"My DEAR" said Aunt Dewey solcmnly,

"What difference docs nge make,

confidence with which she seemed to take
the worlds fauor for granted, but mix

thing which could hardly be ex resscd,
save by the word fascination" But
Notwithstanding her triumphs, Kate Mayo
had, as yet, made no election in life.
