REDIsTRICTING THE STATE.

Before the next general election we
may look for q change in both the Con-
gressional and Senatorial Districts of this
State. No reason whatever is assigned
for this by the dominant party except
the questionable one of legislating in
order 10 secure the largest posi-
BILE amount of political influence
to the party in power. The
great point aimed at is to succeed in de-
feating Hon. Horace Maynard One of the
few respectable representatives that Ten
nsssce can now boast of. The Democra-
cy are ina sort of q~uandary as to how this
is to be accomplished, but We presume a
programme will be adopted as soon as the
Legislature meets and we shall then see,
what we shall see. They must not, how
ever. forget one fact: "the best laid
schemes of mice and men gang aft
asleigh" and if they are not exceeding
saroful Horace Maynard will out-wit the
whole batch of them and 60 to Con-
gross no matter what changes they
may make.
But what sort Of a history arc these
men engaged in writing for themselves
and fer the Slater Here is a Legislative
body at an expense of hundreds of dol
lars per day spending its time and the peo-
Piles money day after day and week after
week in discussing the knotty pro
blem of how best to accomplish the
defeat of one man, who possesses more
real merit, more personal and political
honesty, more learning and intelligence
than the whole concern put together.
The mills of the Gods grind slow but
they grind exceeding fine and the day
will come when the people will rise in
their might and hurl these political
mountebanks into an oblivion that will
know no end.

PRESIDENTIAL NOMINATION.

1t is not the part of wise men to I'M
derate the ability or power of these who
may be opposed to them in any limo of
policy they may choose to adopt; and for
this reason we are willing to admit that
many of those who now oppose the re-
election Of President Grant are men of
acknowledged ability, who have done a
large share toward controlling public
opinion touching the great political issues
that have been before the people for the
part twenty years. They are men of
great sagacity and long experience and
many of them have a reputationsfor politi-
cal honesty that has never been questioned.
The most surprising part of the affairs
that men of their stamp should expend
% much energy to accomplish the defeat
Of q man who has done more toward car
rying out the pet ideas which these same
gentlemen have spent the larger portion
Of their political lives in advocating than
any other man in the country. To Cen
sral Grant, more then any other, is due
the credit of bringing into practical OPP
poration the very principles and theories
the advocacy of which has made them
famous in the eyes of the civilized world.
These men have done a great deal toward
securing amendments to the Constitution
Of the United States, and in passing laws
to enforce these amendments: General
Grant has seen to it that these laws have
been executed, and when necessary has
used force to bring men to justice who
had violated them.
No President has ever exhibited moro
frmness, energy and promptness in exc
cutine the law of the land than he has,
and yet these men oppose him and use
tho whole weight of their influence to Sc
cure his defeat. Men say there must be
some good reason for all this, or such men
as Sumner, Greeley, Trumbull and
Schurz would not favor it, but they have
% far failed to show any good reason for
it outside of personal luminosity and jeal-
ousy of q successful political rival. These
men are-fast digging their W political
graves, as VIM. H. Seward and Andrew
johnson did. Not because of their per-
sonal hostility to Gen. Grant, but because
of their hostility to the embodied will of
the people, their hostility to the organic
political sense of the nation represented in
the person of the President.
We are sorry to see such men steering
blindly toward the breakers on a rocky
shore, but the country is rich enough in
able men not to miss them when they are
gone.

To Death.

A healthy liver s~ecretes each day about
two and a half pounds of bila, which con-
tains a great amount of waste material
taken from the blood. When the liver
becomes torpid CT congested, it fails to
eliminate this vast amount of noxlons
ious substance, whiee, therefore remains
to poison the blood and be conveyed to
every part of the system. What must be
the condition of the blood when it il re-
ceiving and retaining each day two and a
half pounds of poison? Nature tries to
work off this poison through other chan
nels and organs-the kidneys. lungs, skin,
etc., but these organs became overtaxed
in performing this labor, in addition to
their natural functions, and cannot long
withstand the pressure, but become vari-
ously diseased.
The brain, which is the great electrical
center of all vitality, is unduly stimulated
by the unhealthy blood which passes to it
from the heart, and it fails to perform its
Office healthfuliy. Hence the symptoms
of bile poisoning, which are dizziness,
headache, incapacityt to keep the mind on
any subject, impairment of memory, dir
Nv, sleepy or nervous feelings, gloomy
~forebodings and irritability of temper.
The blood itself being diseased as it
formstbe sweat upon the snrface of the
skin, it is SO irritating and poisonous that
it produces discolored brown spots, pim-
pies, blotches and other eruptions, sores,
boils, cerbunklcs and scrofulous turlors-

The Philosophers stone.

The eccentric but brilliant John Ran
dolph once rose suddenly up in his ssat
in the House of Representative and
screamed out at the top of his shrill voice !:
"Mr. Speaker! 1 have discovered the
philosophers stone. 1t is-Pay as you
go!" John Randolph dropped many
rich gems from his mouth, but never a
richer one than that. PAY as you CO."
and you need net dodge sherifs and con-
stables. Pay as you CO." and you can
walk the streets with an erect back and
manly front, and have no fear of those
you meet. You won't have to cross the
street to avoid a dun, or look i~ntently in
a shop window, in order not to see a credi-
tor. "Pay as you CO." and you can snap
your fingers at the world, and when you
laugh, it will be a hearty, honest one, and
not like the laugh of a poor debtor, who
looks around as though he was in doubt
whether the laugh was not the property of
his creditors, and not included in articles
exempted from attachment" PAY as

The Health Of BaIafmere.

For the benefit of a Baltimore mer-
chant who complains that we did the city
injustice in publishing that many cases of
smallpox were there, we publish the fol-
lowing from nhe Baltimore Ameriean:
We have the qualification of informing
our citizens, as we'll as all others interest
ed, that the good health of Baltimore and
its freedom from all contagious diseases IS
still maintained despite the foolish at
empt to spread abroad a statement a few
weeks since that smallpox had become an
endemic here. During the past week it
will be seen by the report of the Board of
Health that there was but one death IN the
city from that disease. Thus, notwlth-
standing its prevalence in Philadelphia

smallpox the past week having been one.
hundred and Observation-Disclosures
still continues exempt. In fact, during
the winter months there is always an occa-
sional death from smallpox IN all large
cities. and there has been no more OF the
disease here this winter than is ordinarily
the case, and most of them have come
from Philadelphia. 1t requires a cold
climate to spread the smallpox, and the
temperature of Baltimore is too warm for
it to get a foothold here. even when an
occasional case is brought to us from other
cities. Merchants from the country will
soon be pouring in for their spring sup
niles. and We can assure them that the
usual good health of the city is maintained.
and that our merchant are prepared TO
meet them with full and fresh stocks OF
goods and their customary courtesy and
