SPECIAL NOTICES.
Why Endure what is Curable :

"what can't be cured must be endured" says
the proyerb; but indigestion can be cured. and
therefore It is the mercst stupidity to endure IL.
Dyspept.os have certainly right to continue
dyspeptics to the end OF their days II they
choose, but as 1t is not supposed that any ra-
tional being prefers physical torment to ease
and health the probability is that II all suffer-
ers from indigestion were convinced that an
absolute, infailible remedy for their complaint
existed. they would with one accord resort to it.
We most emphatically declare that such a
remedy does exist. and that its name Is Hos
letters stomach Bittcrs. The record OF its sue
cess extends over period of twenty years, and
1t is fearlessly alleged that during the whole OF
that time 1t has never failed to afford perma-
nent relief in any disorder or arrangement of
and incurable. The testimonials that so to es-
tablish this fact can be counted by the thou
sand. Stomach complaints that had been ag
gravated by a total disregard OF all dietary
rules and intensified and rendered chronic by
medicinal treatment or drastic purgation, have

THE MASK THROWN OFF.

The mask of hypocrisy, deceit and
treachery which the Radical party as
sumed for partisan advantage, can no
longer he worn to hide the erroneous
magnitude of our national debt and
to deceive the taxpayers under the
impression that it is being decreased.
Scarcely was the result of the late
Presidential election announced than
the statement of Secretary Boutwell,
flashed across the wires that the na-
tional debt was on the increase, and
now we have it officially announced
that during the month of December
and January just past the increase
aggregated over Iaco Million dollars!
We publish on the first page of this
paper a tabular statement of the pub
lie debt which the lying figures and
perjured statements of the Govern
ment financers could no longer dis
gulse, and it shows that our national
Indebtedness, mp to January 1st, 1878,
was Two Billion. Two Hundred and
Thirty-One Million, One Hundred
and Ninety One Thousand Dollars!- =
OF course, in the light of our past ex-
perience, we have no assurance that
these aretthe correct figures; the debt
may be much greater even than this
almost fabulous sum. And we have
the cheerful assurance from the au-
thorities that this ponderous debt
must increase at the rate of a million
a month to an indifinite period in the
future.
This is truly just but crushing
retribution upon at least that majority
of Lhe American citizens who have SO
long kept these hypocrites,, liars and
plumbers in places of responsibility.

LET 'EM "ExTINcT."-Gen. Gar.
field goes back to Washington from
his recent visit to the Plains with q
new idea. He says "the present In
dian policy is mistake. Instead OF
requiring the Indian TO lose his iden.
tity as an Indian by making a shop
keeper, mechanic or agriculturalist,
we should have encouraged him to be-
come hcrdsman. Thus the extinc-
tlon Of the Indian race might be
averted" Now, in the light of the
experience of the people Of the Pacific
coast, the probable extinction Of the
Indian race does not appear to be such
a lamentable calamity as Gen. Gar.
field may suppose. OF course it
might be too cruel TO annihilate them
by the swift and sure mode of making
them shopkeers, peanut vendors and
such, but if we would just turn Gen.
Crook aud Custar loose among them,
with their higher civilizing process,
it is likely that the Indian might
be extinctcd with honor TO himself
and profit to the country.

HUSBAND AND WIFE IN CALIFORNIA.

The new California code is very
peculiar one in its relations to home
and the family. AS it establishes uni
versal equality in the married state,
it leaves the husband and wife at full
liberty to sue and contract with each
other as before marriage. Should
any controversy arise between husband
and wife leading to their separation,
the two can pay into common fund
certain contributions from their pock-
ct money for the support of the chill
dren, who, in turn are not in the dis
tinctive custody Of either parent, the
law saying: "Whcn husband wife are
living separate and apart the father,
as such, has no superior right to that
of the mother to the care and custody
or control of the children" As the
law also says "the marriage of minors
changes their status from minors to
adults" there is nothing to hinder neg
lected children from going off and
getting married and thus becoming as
good as the grown folks, with equal
rights in all respects.

HOW TT Will. STAND.

HOW HI WI 8TANk.
The official returns are now in from
all the States of the Union which dur.
ing the last year held elections for
Representatives in the next Congress,
and we are enabled to state with some
precision what the political complex
ion of that body will be. Elected
while the animated contest for the
Presidency was in progress, and in
fluepced therefore by the circum.
stances which conduced to the success
of the Republican candidate, large
majority of the members of the new
House will be supporters of the ad.
ministration. Whether that majority
will be as much as two-thirds, depends
upon the amount of unscrupulousness
in the disposition of contested cases,
which tho dominant party may exer-
else; and its past history does not give
us any hope that it will not take unfair
advantage of the opportunities which
success has given it. In other words,
the Republicans viii make their ma.
jority two-thirds, by rejecting enough
Democrats and seating Republicans
in their places.
The next House Of Representatives
will consist Of 292 members. Ofthese,
all but four from Connecticut and three
from New Hampshire, have been
elected. The delegation from Louis
lana is in dispute, and two sets of
members will appear as claimants for
seats, each having certificates of elec-
ton, though from rival returning
boards. Leaving the representation
of these three States out, the members
holding certificates will be politically
divided as follows: Republicans, 1s4;
Democrats, 81; Liberals, 4; Republic
an majority, SO. A two-third vote
will be 194. The Republicans thus
lack ten of securing the complete
control of the House. If they admit
the Pinchback bogus delegation from
Louisiana they will have secured six
additional members toward supplying
the deficiency, and they doubtless
hope to elect four of the seven
Representatives from Connecticut and
New Hampshire next Spring. II
they fail in those States there are
many contested seats which they can
manipulate to their advantage. With
two-thirds majorities in both Houses
of Congress, therefore, we may con-
fdently expect continuance of the
reckless and unconstitutional legisla-
tion which has characterized the past
twelve years. The only possible COM
fort to be extracted by Democrats
from the situation is, that the Radicals
have'rope enough now to hang them
selves.
The Democratic and Liberal minor
ity, however, though comparatively
weak in numbers, Is made of good
stuff, and the people will be thoroughly
enlightened ON the merits oflegislation
as it progresses. Such experienced
members as Fernando Wood and
James Brooks of New York, Marshall
of Illinois, Niblack and Holman of
Indiana, Eldridge of Wisconsin, Beck
of Kentucky, Swami of Maryland,
Wells of Missouri, and Randall and
Clymer of Pennsylvania, will stand
in the breach for the constitution and
justice until the people have had time
for second sober thought, and will
rally TO their support, as We expect
them to do in 1874, when the Forty
fourth Congress will be elected.
