II Blood Cleanser, or Panacea. :.
As medicine for children, the Panacea is
in every way, calculated to take the Place of
the endless variety of drugs which are annu-
ally sold for that purpose, and which are Of
ten very injurious. A medicine which pos.
sesses the qualities of a cathartic as well as
mild Alternative, and which is capable of ar
resting disease without the least injury to the
child, is of incalculable value to every moth
er. As cathartic, it is very effective, yet it
does not, if given in proper quantities, cause
nausea or distress to the stomach or bowels.
1t is very pleasant to the taste, which is a
very important feature for medicine for
children. As, PREVENTIVE of disease it is
unprecedented, as it acts. directly upon the
| digestive organs and the blood. In all
scrofulous diseases, it is the most effective
medicine ever offered to the public; and, il
given regularly and perseveringly, those
eruptive diseases SO common to children may
be entirely eradicated. s'.l lg' .t.s, .ht.r3

Did Gen. Banks Resign

The Chronicle, in its amiable desire tc
pallate the offenses Of the Liberal boilers and
save their tender sensibilties, persists in the
erroneous statement that Gen. Banks ten
dered his resignation to the House as chair
man Of the Committee on Foreign Relations,
and that the House refused to accept that res
ignation. Gen. Banks did not tender his
resignation, and, of course, the House did not
refuse to accept it. What he did do was to
ask the House to excuse him from serving on
the committee in any capacity, and the re-
quest was refused If he had resigned the
craftsmanship in plain, frank terms, we have
reason to believe it would have been ac-
cepted. Perhaps those disposed to quabble
about this matter will say that his request
was equivalent to resignation. But men,
bers of Congress and the Chronicle know bet
ter. If Gen. Banks doubts it let him resign
without any circumlocution, and thus test the
real sentiment of the House.

The cases recently decided in the Police
Court against certain restaurant-keepers in
Washington for refusing accommodation to
persons on account of race or color, having
been appealed, came up for trial in the Grim
inal Court last week. Unfortunately the
drawing up Of the indictments or informal
tons had been intrusted to one who evidently
has not had much experience in preparing
such forms. As consequence of this each
information was quashed, and the merits OF
the cases were left untouched. William A.
Cook, Esq, evinced an earnestness for which
all lovers of justice can but commend him.
and, but for the unfortunate mistakes of his
assistant in drawing the papers, would have
pushed the cases to final decision. The
merits of the law have not been decided, as
alleged by the Sunday organ of prescription
and we hope soon to have case that cub
| bles cannot affect.

Our Delegate at Werk.

Mr.. Chapman, delegate for the District Of
Columbia in the House of Representatives,
is urging upon Congress the justice of giving
the District of Columbia share in the pub
lie lands for school purposes. We would
like his efforts in relation to colored schools
much better were they tending to their abo-
lition and the doing away Of distinctions on
account of color in public common schools.
If we must have colored schools we demand
that they shall be under the supervision OF
colored persons. If the schools are 10 be
placed under one board Of commissioners or
trustees, and white teachers are to placed
in charge Of clored schoolso, why not colored
teachers take charge of white schools? We
can see no difference between an educated
and competent white teacher and an educa'
ted, competent colored teacher. In our opin-
ion determinations on account of race and
color, have no foundation in reason, and we
would like to see measures proposed to dc
away with them.

The Galaxy.

The GALAXY has now entered on the eighth
year Of its existence, under circumstances oi
unusual prosperity.
This magazine has from the hrst occupied
field entirely its own. The aim Of the
GALAXY has been to discuss promptly every
great subject which is uppermost in the pub
lie mind, and to have the discussion carried
on by our ablest and best-known men In each
department.
These papers by conspicuous public men,
on national topics Of Importance, will be con-
tinued, and will embrace contributions from
the most prominent of our living statesmen
on questions of national interest.
Hon. Gideon Welles will several times ap-
pear as the author of Political "reminiscences
of the highest value and interest.
Mr.. J. S. Black and the author of the DE
sultory Sketches" of politicians of note will
both continue to engage the interest of the
readers of the GALAXY.
Also, other articles by our most prominent
statesmen, which the publishers are not yet
at liberty to announce.
A new story, by J. w. De Forest, the au-
thor of Overland" and kate Beaumont, -
called the "Wetherel Affair."" will run
through the year 1873.
This serial, the first part Of which is given
in the December number, deals with charac-
tiers and surroundings different from those
hitherto treated by Col. De Forest, and it
will command the uninterrupted interest OF
the reading public, even more than previous
stories by the same author, who is justly en-.
titled to the leading place among our Amer
can novelists of to-day.
In the January number will appear the first
instalment of a new story, by Mrs. Annie
Edwards, the author of sought We to Visit
Her ?" "Seven Lawrence Yeoman," "Ar-
chic Lowell" "Susan Fielding" etc.
This story will be printed in the GALAXY
from advanced MSS. forwarded by Mrs. Ed
wards, and will be eagerly welcomed by the
thousands of admirers of the author who has
won leading place among English novel
lists.
A new novel, by Mr.. Justin Mccarthy. the
author Of LADY Judith" ect., win also APP
pear in the GALAXY during the year 1873.

ircnchment of a Quarter of million per year
might be effected by the abolition OF this
body Congress and the Governor or Presi-
dent assuming its powers. If corruption Is
liable to concentrate anywhere in the gov
ernment of this District, it is here.
In concluding their report tie board pre-
sent some very instructive figures as to the
amount expended by the General Govern
ment on the streets and avenues OF the city
since 1862. The account runs thus:
By the General Government. 81 ,32l ,2so 81
BY the city Of Washington. .l3,92l,'6' 10
Or for ten per cent. by the General Govern
ment, ninety per cent. by the city; and
the amount paid by Georgetown and the
county be added, it will make about two MIL
lions more. In view Of these facts it is urged
that an appropriation be made at an early
day to reimburse the District for the amount
expended in the improvements of Govern
ment property.
We think this statement of facts will vim
dicate the action of the Board Of Public
Works and reconcile the people of Washing
ton to the burden necessarily imposed upor
them. Every dollar expended has addet
three to the value Of the property of our citi

w here the Trouble Lies.

1t is doubtful if any one OF the native chiv-
airy of Virginia has done so much to prevent
immigration to that State and to drive North
ern men from it who have settled there, as
the carpet-bag Governor Walker. He has
out-IIeroded the most ferocious of the F. F.
VS. in his prescription of every emigrant
who declined to become mean and subser-
Went tool of the old slave-holding aristoc-
racy of the State. But he sometimes preach
es better than he practices, and we see
by the New York Times that he has recently
been talking something ike common sense
upon this subject of immigration. In refer
ring to this CLEAN of political sanity, the
Times says:
sit is SO seldom we can find occasion to
commend anything said or done by Governor
Walker, Of Virginia, that we are the more
ready to indorse the sensible views he lately
expressed in public meeting upon the need
of immigration to that State. His idea that
an official volume should be published by the
State, giving full and accurate information
of her resources and advantages, is one de-
serving encouragement, and we hope to see
it carried into practical effect"
Walker might publish thousand 'official
volumes" upon the resources and advantages
Of the State, and talk himself blind in his
appeals for immigration without effect while
the people of Virginia continu, to insult and
ostracise every man from the North, as they
have done since the close Of the rebellion as
we'll as before its beginning. No man who
possesses the slightest self-respect and manly
independence will select for his home a State
where he is held in contempt by the people,
treated as social out-cast, and his life often
endangered by every attempt he may make
to vindicate his right to the political and
civil privileges of freeman.
When the people of Virginia learn to treat
immigrants from the North as well as from
other portions of the globe, we will not say
with generous confidence" but with ordi
nary justice and civility, and disposition i;
shown to make a life among them tolerable
then the natural advantages of the State viii
undoubtedly begin to attract respectable
and valuable class Of emigrants to theil
State, and not till then; nor until then viii
they secure a class who will be worth having
The men who will meekly submit to the an.
noyance, insult, ostracism, and oppression
of his neighbors will be no benefit to any
State. Governor Walkers first step should be
if he desire to entice settlers to Virginia, tc
correct public sentiment at home rather thar
publishing books to show the people abroad
what its resources and advantages are.

WE hope the vote of the Republican mem
bers of the House against excusing Gen
Banks from serving on the Committee o.
Foreign Affairs was not intended as dispo'
sition to palliate political apostacy. IfBanks
had been successful in his efforts to defeat
the Republican party, not Mr.. Greeley, the
Liberal Republican, but some Copperhead
rebel sympathizer, or active rebel would be
the President elect, and the Government
restored to the hands of those who shed SC
much blood to destroy it. How long will a
party remain in power if such inidelity as
Banks, Blair, Farnsworth, &C., displayed, is
not only winked at but practically approved!

THE PHILADELPHIA Press and the Republican

THE Philadelphia Press and the Republican
papers which opposed Hartranft's election as
Governor of Pennsylvania, made Senator
Cameron the issue, and really fought the
battle against him. AS our readers know,
they were defeated by majority of over
thirty-fve thousand, and Gen. Cameron EN-.
phatically sustained. But that does not seem
to reconcile them to the General, and so they
continue the war against him almost as
fercely as ever. 1t is said that even fools
will learn something in the school of adver'
sitv, but Gen. Cameron's enemies do not.

complete liberty and exact equality take the
place of the oppression under which colored
people labor.

for its abundant harvest. which is cal
culated at present at 30, 900, 600 hectoli-
tress, two and three-quarter bushels
eachl, representing capital of l, 800, :
600, 600 francs. 1t exceeds by one-third
the average of the ten preceding years,
which did not exceed "A, 600, 900 of hec-
tos. Hitherto the yield in France has
not sutticed for the consumption, and
she was obliged to have recourse every
year to foreign importation. She OBJ
tains her corn from the Black Sea, and
as she has no commerce with those
countries, is obliged to pay annually in
gold sum of $50, 900, 600 or 500, 600, 600
of francs. This year the yield will
more than suffice, aud thus that large
sum will not have to leave France"
