Sad INDEED Ill is estimated by
Washington correspondents that tho
recent Credit Mobilier, exposures will
likely break up the Congressional
prayer meeting and the Congressional
temperance society. The former was
presided over by brother Henry vii,
son, aud the other by brother Colfax,
the two Vice Presidents alluded To by
Hoax Amos In his memorandum book.
We hope those "whitencd scpulchrcs'
-Siil not succeed in doing what the
Devil has failed to do for ten thousand
thousand years.

George F. Nesbit, Of New York.
Nesbit was the government envelope
manufacturer, is this the way be got
his fat contract I We are hound to
infer from the testimony of the Smilcr,
that Ncsbit wns in the habit OF brib-
ing Senator'S and Congressman, (if not
the P. NJ. GeneraD, The expose OF
ahe second officer in tho Government
is certainly making very bad case
worse. Havo these men bcen bribed
for, everything? What pity that
Nesbit is dead. Colfax's attempt TO
sccraan himself places a black wreath
around the brow OF the dead stamp
envelope manufacturer. 1t looks like
bribery, all around.

Hon. Glcnni W. Scofeld's reason for
taking stock in the Credit Mobiiicr,
because tho company was organized
under Pennsylvania act OF incorpor-
alton, was quite as logical as tha. OF
the Irisbman who wanted to enlist in
the Twelfth regiment so ns to be near
his brother, who belonged TO the Thir-
teenth.

WHAT PosIEs THEY ARE.-vicc
President Wilson, like brother Colfax,
Is trying to wriggle out of the Credit
Mobilier fraud. The latter, TO fix up
the 81 200 deposit, says he received a
$1,000 brite FROM George F. Ncsbit,
the postage stamp manufacturer, and
brother Wilson says the money he
put in belonged to his wife. Our
readers no doubt rccollect that Mrs
Grant made s25, 200, on the celebrated
black Friday, and IL Is very evident
that Mrs. Senator Wilson IL learning
the stock gambling business, too.

Facts for the PeopIe

As the virtues OF medicines can only be ascer-
tained by careful observation 1t IL to be regretted
that many OF the Drugs still prescribed by some
Medica. As an inBtance of this, that vile drug
Balsam CopaiDa, furnishes an example. About the
year 1890, the Spant rds in the Island Of San DO
mingo having become af1tcted with certain COM
plaints thought, according to the prevailing notion
at that time that the remedy might be found where
the disease originated Under this impression BAL
sam Copaios came into use, but never has q nau-
seating drug done more injury, for It not only
changes the nature of the disease to more dread
full state than the original but It ruins the tone of
the stomach and brings on Dyspepsia In its worst
forms. To avoid this drug and It's effects the SA-
