nual increased 800, T9S voted for General
Grant and about 3, loo, 900 either voted for
his opponents or refrained from voting
OF the latter class it would not be fair to
claim all as hostile 10 Grant, but we have
reason 10 assume that the vast majority of
them were at least negatively opposed
since they did not approve sufficiently of
the acts Of his Administration for the past
four years tO 90 % the polls and indorse
them. According to the table Grant had
majority Of the voting population in only
i've States. -Four OF these are Western
States in which the increase of population
is relatively greater than in most Of the
other States The voting population of
1872 was therefore much larger than was
gwen IN the census tables Minnesota
gave q combined vote for Grant and Gree
ley in 1872 of gO,g2O while in the census

with Grant s vote that he had a majority
IN but one State-tU wit Vermont.

J. Over a half q million Democrats de-

Testimonial for Epilepsy !!

BowAYTON, Conn, Feb. . 1872.
Dir. O. PHELPS Brown, No. 81 Grand St, Jersey City
n. j.
Dear Sir:-My brother who is now in his 18th
year, has been subject to Epilepsy fits from child
hood. The spasms would invariably occur during
the night, and our local physicians here could do
nothing to help him prescribing Bromide or
Potassium, which would afford only temporary re
lief He was gradually but surely becoming insane,
and in this condition we procured your restorative
stimulant, herbal ointment and pills, and used as
directed, and but short time elapsed before the
spasms entirely ceased his intellect grew brighter,
and in short entirely restored to perfect health.
You may use this testimonial rs you may Geem prop
err, as what have said are facts.
Respectfully yours

An exchange sees in the present condi.
ton Of the country the natural result of
the anti reform sentiment that prevails so
alarmingly. 1t says:
The price Of wheat is down, So is that
o. corn; pork, beef, and farm stock gener-
ally, But the price of necessary supplies
OF all Kinds Is not down. Bonds are not
down, lakes are not down. Interest is
not down. National credit, in citizens
hands as money Is worth S7l cents ON the
state is exchanged, but credit in q differ
ent form, in the hands of capitalists l.
worth SIP to $l,2O, and pays mo taxes
besides 1t makes great difference in the
minds of our rulers whether money is
earned by industry or used for speculation
The laws made to favor one side are also
used TO plumber the other But, then the
people will have it so. Reforms are not
popular as yet.

sad commentary upon MIR. Grants |
kind of civil service is found in the fact
that Congress requested him to employ |
two special attorneys to bring suit in behalf
of the Government against the Credit
Mobilier and its stockholders, in the proper
court on courts, and it is reported that
he thereupon appointed Mr. Perry, of Ohio
and Mr. Harlan, Of Kentucky. The only
true Interpretation to be put on the resolu-
ton of the House is that the members
voting for il look upon the distrlct-attor-
news as incompetent to vindicate the public
interests. IL is time that an end were
made of this practice Of compelling
tax payers to pay for public prosecutors
large amounts of money, and then, because
incompetent politicians are commissioned
to pay still larger and additional sums to
private attorneys to do the work which the
former ought TO do.
Oglesby, like Cameron, furnishes very
pretty exemplifcation of the peculiar sort
of material out of which modern senators
are manufactured, and illustrates III ms
own person the most of those causes which
are SO RAPIDLY destroying the character and
| influence of the upper house OF congress.
| In noint of intellectual ability and culture
he Is decidedly inferior to the great Penn
! svlyonian and if he has a single claim to
the senatorship, aside from his zeal as a
second rate politician and his efforts as a
! stump orator, that claim is totally invisible
to the naked eye. Previous to the war he
/ hardly emerged from the Obscurity he is so
eminently calculated TO adorn; during the
war he managed 10 do Just fighting enough
to give him a respectable record as bleed
ing patriot and since the war he has used
this record as his stock in trade, and done
a larger business on a small capital than
any of his predecessors or contemporaries
