REMEDY FOR CORNs.

Mr.. Rose. merchant of San Diego,
announces that these creators of so much
torment in the world can
easily be cured by applying a coat of
gum arabic mucilage every evening on
going to bed He had them forty years,
and tried nearly all the corn remedies in
existence, without relief, until he tried
the above, which readily cured him in
| few weeks.
Dr.. Hall says fiat It ought-to be ex-
tensiyely known that ordinary boiled rice
eaten with boiled milk, is one of the best
| remedies known for any form of loose
bowels. Its efficacy is increased if it is
Drowned like coffee, and then boiled and
eaten at intervals of fonr hours, taking
no other feed or liquid whatever; its
curative virture IS intensified if no milk
lis taken with it, and the patient will
keep quiet in warm bed then it be-
cones an almost infallible remedy.
FARMERS not unfre Inently allow their
cattle to remain cut of doors. when the
first cold winter winds come, longer than
they should. They are not accustomed

thus they are pinched and chilled, very
much to their injury. They should be
kept in the stables in these raw aud win

OF being turned out fer drink in the

Of eggs. Hens fed on clean, sound grain

Death of William III. Seward.

The Geographic news this morning
is to the effect that this distinguished
statesman died yesterday at his home
in Auburn. Mr.. Seward died at ripe
old age, in the quiet of his beautiful
home, free from the cares Of public lite,
and with - consciousness that he had
left his werk well done.
For half a century Mr.. Seward has
been part of the history of his cOun-
try. AS Governor of the State of New
York, United States Senator, and final
ly as chief of the Cabinet of the late
President Lincoln, Mr.. Seward has
left a record OF deep sagacIy, wise
craftsmanship and answering devo-
ton to purpose. Originally a Wing.
he became Republican, at the birth
of that party, with Preston King,
Horace Greeley and the controlling
minds Of that dag. -
He, Charles Sumner, Salmon p.
Chase and John =. Hale were the FIRST
four Republicans on the floor of the
United States Senate. He was a
prominent. candidate at Chicago, in the
convention which finally placed Mr..
Lincoln in nomination for the presiden-
cy, and it was a wise act OF Mr.. Lin
coin, when elected, placing his compel
itor at the head of his Cabinet, where
his services were of inestimable value
in preventing diplomatic complications
with foreign powers during our late
civil war. The public frequently found
fault with him during his administra
ton, but the result always showed
that he was right.
IS Since his retiring from Office he
made an interesting tour around the
world, from which he returned only a
few months since. We believe he was,
at the time of his death, actively en-
gagged upon a history Of his public
political life, which would, of course,
have been a Taluable, addition to our
literature. He had frequently, during
his public career, found time to devote
to literature, and several works have
been published from his pen, among
them a life of John Quincy Adams.
Mr.. Seward had been in poor health
for some time, but the country was
not prepared to hear of his death.-[N.

We have reports from several of the country
parishes to the effect that the colored people
encounter obstacles in getting their registra-
ton papers. One day the registrar is absent
and the o zee closed. Another. and he is ont
of blanks. Again, there is q rush of appli-
cants, and the business of registration eOnduc-
ted so slowly that many have to go away. As
a rule. those thus sent away are not white
men. Under our State laws, registration is
absolutely necessary as a prerequisite to vot-
ing; but, fortunately, ample provision has
been made in the laws Of Congress to protect
the rights of all victims of any system of fav-
oritism that may be introduced Into any State
1t is to be regretted that any necessity for
an appeal from our own laws should be even
deemed possible. A fair aud impartial admin
istratiOn Of our registration and election statu-
ties will secure the rights of every voter: but
in the hands OF men who permit their partisan
zeal to outweigh their sworn obligations,
these laws may be made an engine Of wrong
and oppression. We simply ,iesire that every
voter shall have fair chance without re-
striction, hindrance. Of annoyance of any sort,

that end we give the federal law bearing on

From the New Orleans Repub-

The Shreveport Times, which is in

ability, does not seem to understand

Since the fusion ticket was formed IN.
position Of the New Orleans Republican
has been somewhat an anomalous one, and
reminds nipclly of the erratic course of thu
Piedyane after its purchase by the Joint stock
company. This halfway policy is not at ali
becoming to the Republican, which must be
either prounced or nothing. We would much
like to see it dealing such trenchant blows -
it can deliver upon the Kellogg party, instead
of sulking like Achilles in his tent.
While we were one of the original
supporters of reform, we always insist.

object in the proper manner. Suck

to relapse into Democracy, for that
would bc return to the usages which
were the first great cause of all our
troubles. We were for reform within
the Republican party, in which work
we sought the assistance of all good
men in the Democratic party. But
when we asked for assistants, we did
not mean leaders. We did not desire q
Democratic captain and crew, for the
ship Of State, such as fusion has OF
fered us. We prefer Republicans at
all times and under all circumstances
to Democrats, and will never consent
to undo the good work that has been
accomplished within the past four
years. That the cost has been ex.
cessive is due not so much to those
who did everything in their power to
obstruct and defeat it. This is a plain
proposition to those who are familiar
with the history of the State. We are
bound by every consideration Of honor
and principle to stand by it. We
have, therefore, no stalwart or other
