National Democratic Address.
LOUISVILLE, KY, Aug. T.
The following circular has been issued
by the Democratic Executive Committee:

LOUISVILLE KY, Aug. T.
The following circular has been issued
by the Democratic Executive COMMITTEES:
LOUISVILLE, KY, Aug. 8.
DEAR SIR-Will you be kind enough to
place this circular in the hands of active
Democrats in your county, who will at once
commence an organization FOR the purpose of
supporting the principles of our party, as
they will be proclaimed by the Convention at
Louisville, September 5th.
The utter abandonment of principles, as
evinced by the coalition between the spoils-
men and place hunters in their attempt to
elevate Horace Greeley to the Presidency, is
sad evidence of tine Generalization and cor
ruption now existing In our midst, and based
as that bargain is upon fraud and hypocricy,
and the utterance OF one set of sentiments In
the North and another In the South, it must
be repudiated and spurned by every man who
has spark of honesty in his heart There
are hundreds of thousands who already pro-
claim their purposes of maintaining the
Democratic organization at all hazards. The
dsintegration of the Radical party into fac
tions renders 1t self-evident that the Demo-
cratic masses can elect one of their own faith
instead of lifelong enemy like Greeley, who
abandoned his principles, and points
proudly yet to his record. And
such a record Can Democrats, who have
boasted that they support principles not
men, agree to falsify their past life by clasp
ing hands with the worst men of the Radical
party-Sumner, Schurz, Trumbull, tenton,
and the thousand other leaders who rally
around Greeley and would control his Ad-
ministration II his election can be secured

EDITORIAL OPINIONS. AN advertise
ment is, as a general rule, an elaborate
euloglsm on the merits of something
which the advertiser desires to sell. The
editors and publishers of the paper in
which 1t appears are not responsible for
its statements Sometimes, however,
highly important discoveries or inven-
tions, announced to the world through the
business department of the press, seem to
demand few words of editorial commen-
dation. We have no hesitation in saying
that the excellent medicine introduced
by DR.. Joseph Walker, of California,
under the name of VINEGAR BITTERs,
belongs to this category, and has just
claim to favorable notice. There can
be no doubt as TO its utility as a tonic,
stomachic and alternative. We are cog
infant of many instances in which it has
cured cnses of chronic dyspepsia, sup
posed to be incurable, and know that the
estimation in which 1t is held as a remedy
for bilious and nervous disorders, inter-
mittent and remittent fevers, rheuma-
tism and general debility, is founded on
experience and well deserved. The testi-
mony of "a cloud of witnesses" goes TO
show that it is eminently useful in large
majority of the disorders to which the hu
man family are subject. The fact that 1t
contains no alcohol commends 1t to the
confidence of that large and increasing
class of the community who insist that all
spirituous stimulants are active poisons.

Impartial Justice at the South.

THE Democrats and Liberals have all
along insisted that what they call the
Congressional force bill is a partisan
measure, designed solely in the interest
of the Republican party. Itwas charged
that the only arrests under it would be
Democrats or Liberals. That slander has
recently been refuted in the most prac.
ticable and forcible way possible. We
refer to the case of the United States rs.
George Washington Wilson and Thomas
G. Wilson, charged with violation of
the Enforcement act in disturbing a
peaceful assemblage and interrupting the
freedom of speech in Savannah, Ga 1t
was the first case of the kind that
had come before the United States
Court in Georgia. The parties violat-
| ing the law were Republicans. The
prosecution was vigorous, and no lenien-
cy was shown the prisoners by
either the Prosecuting Attorney or the
Court. Here we have direct evidence
that the policy of the General Govern.
ment is to deal impartially with all of.
Tenders. We are glad the first case OF
the kind arose on our side of the house,
that by its prosecution the national
authorities might show to the country
their non.partisan fairness in the treat
ment of offenders against the public peace
and liberty. Our party has no notion OF
following the example of the Democracy
in the administration of justice, either al
the North or at the South. Chicago

Fonr MIIlions of InvaIids.

At the lowest computation, there are never less
than four millions of invalids in the United States.
OF this number probably more than three-fltths
have neglected the ordinary precautions neces-
sary for the preservation Of health, and are suf-
fering the punishment due to their carelessness.
If the multitudes who are now afflicted with bill
iOusRess, indigestion, rheumatisnE intermittent
fever, Irregularities of the bowels general debll
ity, nervous disorders etc, had, at the very first
symptoms of indisposltion, inEigOrated, regu
lated and purified their systems with HOstetter's
Stomach Bitters, t@O-thirds Of them would at
this moment be performing the active duties Of
life, unsnnoyed by any ailment Of the body or
the mind.
This assertion is made adVisedly. 1t il founded
on experience, and is borne out by the testimony
Of a countless host of witnesses, whose Rttesta-
tons cover almost every variety Of disease, and
extend over period OF about twenty years. OF
every thousand persons who take the Bltters, as
a preventive of the complaints above enumer-
ated, seven-eighths escape them entirely; and of
every thousand who are actually attacked, and
use the great vegetable tonic as a remedy, three
fourths are actually cured. These are not hap
hazard assertions, but statistical facts. They are
based upon the results OF inquiries, made by
more than fifty thousand persons In various parts
of the country, and upon the letters OF prominent
citizens of every State, it might almost be said,
of every county in Il Union

The proper depth to plant seeds is a ues-
ton of considerable importance, and one
which, like many other similar questions re-
lating to plant growth, caunOt receive a de-
finite answer that would be of general or
universal application. In dry sandy soils,
situated in dry climates, a deeper covering
will be required than would be.iudicious
where both soil and climate indicate the re-
verse of these conditions. For instance, it
has been shown that peas continue longer
in bearing condition on sandy soils, when
sown at depth Of six inches, than they do
when placed nearer the surface; and it is
said that the Indians upon the ta5le-lands
of: the Colorado, plant corn 10 or u inches
below the surface with the best results; but
if planted with only one or two inches of
covering, the crop fails. Seeds also vary in
their ability to penetrate depth of soil in
terminating. Leguminous seeds, and some
Of the largest seeding graminee, can be
planted deeper than those of lighter char
acter. 1t has been given as a general rule
that all seeds terminate most speedily when
covered with depth Of soil equal to their
own thickness, and where the constant pres
ence Of sufficient moisture for termination
can be maintained; this rule is, perhaps, as
nearly correct as any that can be given.

and rapids of the Upper Yang-tze-KiaDg in
1869, under Admiral Sir II. Keppel, and
who has since done similar service in the
river Platte. He will be supported by an
other officer; and an artisan and interpreter,
to be engaged at Zanzibar, will complete
the European portion of the party. An
