CONSUMPTION CAN BE CURED.
Schenck's Pulmonic Syrup, Schenck's
Sea Weed Tonic, and Schenck's Man
drake Pills, are the only medicines
that will cure Pulmonary Consump-
ton. Frequently medicines that will
stop cough will occasion the death of
the patient; they lock up the liver,
stop the circulation of the blood, be.
morrhage follows. and, in fact, they
clog the action of the very organs that
caused the cough.
Liver Complaint and Dyspepsia are
the causes Of two-thirds OF the cases
of Consumption. Many persons COM
plain of dull pain in the side, consti-
patton. coated tongue. pain in the
shoulder blade, feelings of drowsiness
and restlessrees, the food lying heavily
on the stomach, accompanied With
acidity and belching up. of wind.
These sy mptoms usually originate from
disordered condition of the stomach
or torpid liver.
Persons so affected. if they take one
or two heavy colds, and if the cough
in these cases be suddenly checked,
will find tue stomach and liver cloeged,
remaining torpid and inactive, and al
most before they are aware, the lungs
are mass of sores and liberated, the
result Of which is death.
Schenck's Pulmonic Syrup is an ez-
pectorant, which does not contain
opiu I'm or nything calculated to check
a cough suddenly.
Schenck's Sea Weed Tonic dissolvea
the food, mixes with the gastric juices
of the stomach, aids digestion and
creates ravenous appetite.
When the bowels are costiye, skin
salow or the symptoms otherwise of a
bilious tendency. Schenck's Mandrake
Pills are required.
These medicines are prepared only
by j. FL. SCHENCK & Son, N. E. corner

"This uncomfortable desire for a
change of some kind, it matters not
what that change might be, has done
the work."
So sings the Union upon the s'sur.
prise" of the Northern elections. It
says nothing of those in Virginia, Ten.
nessee~ Georgia, Alabama and Louisi-
ana. They are equally surprising, We
should think. The problem to which
the Union ought to devote it's semi. i.oc-
casional labors to elucidate, is what
makes, in this particular matter, the
desire for change so "nncontrollable?"
Corruption, vonality, bitterness, imbe-
cility among the Radicals are tho
words whose meaning the Union should
study and apply The enigma of these
elections, like the enigma of onr fraud.
ulent debt, can easily be explained by
those who have no Interested motives
to mystify it.

RESULT OF THE ELEmloNs.-Th
awakening OF the people to the reali.
ties Of the political situation, given by
the October elections, seems to have
been OF the most rousing character.
especially in several Of the States which
have been considered strongholds OF
the Republicans. The most notable
triumph OF the Democracy. perhaps, is
in Massachusetts. where seven OF
eleven members of Congress have been
chosen by that party, the present dele.
CATION being entirely Republican.
Among the warriors placed Aors
d~ combat in this contest, is the re-
donhtable General BENZ. F. Butler.
Next comes the Democratic victory in
New York, resulting in the political
shooting on the spot" OF the no less
famous General John A. Dix. Loui-
siana astonishes herself by the might
mess OF her peaceful victory over the
bayonets and bullets of Federal power
and state usurpatlons. and elects to
Congress Eve out of tho six (hitherto
Republican, delegates. Tennessee
gives $4,000 Democratic majority.
From other States there is likewise q
general current OF sentiment exhibited
against the dominant power.
Large numbers of colored mon in
Louisiana, Alabama, and elsewhere,
voted the Conservative ticket openly.
Marshal Packard gave anticipation OF
defeat in Louisiana. when he sent de-
spatohes to Washington from New Or
leans, complaining that intimidation "
had heavily reduced the Republican
vote, in the very face of the fact that
be has had the army aud navy at his
back for more than month past to
prevent just such aresult-to use them,
on the contrary, to intimidate the Con-
seryatives.

SUDDEN DEATH.-We are painod to
record the death of Mr.. William Moor
head. which sad event occurred at his
residence near Concord Church on So.
t1rday morning last, after IN illness of
only few moments. The deceased
had always been in good health, and
had attended, tho Fuir on Thursday
and Friday. On Friday night, he
retired to bed feeling as well as usual,
and nothing was apprehended until
about day break on Saturday morning,
when his son noticed that his father
was about to full out of the bed, and
be ran and caught him before he fell,
and moved him back farther. He
then alarmed the family. but before
they reached him ho had expired. The
cause of his death was disease of the
heart. at the time of his death, he
was III his tiftieth year.

Going Back on tho Beast.

Another point on the Union Herald,
snd We will retire. It says OF Butler:
'He was opposed on the ground of
his alleged corrupt professional prao.
tices. OF his alleged connection with
corrupt official action, and of his
alleged support of corrupt legislation;
and he was defeated"
We're these, too. local and personal
questions? Corrupt as this blear-eyed
fellow is, insolent as an imp of the
devil, hating, as he does. everything
that smacks Of virtue. deoency and in
tegrity. despising and seeking to
trample down the Southern people, be-
cause OF their honor and character,
which scorn him and all his devices

the majority for Green is 5S3 in this
County. which will be increased con
siderably by the returns from other
precincts, aud may be safely estimated
at not less than 700 in this County.

The Union Herald has a funny way
OF viewing the elections elsewhere. It
processes to be not at all discouraged
by them. Republicans have been de-
feated by Democrats, it admits. but
denies that it was because of their Re-
publicanism. Mischievous personal
and local questions, most unexpected
~ thrust themselves into the canvass
in every State, and decided it in favor
OF the Democratic candidates, who 81
multaneously and of malice prepense
everywhere became the winning men
on these questions. Something or
other, some unexplained instinct, some
mysterious power working amongst
them, put them all, from Boston to
New Orleans. upon line Of policy, as
regards local and personal questions,
that swept them right into the places
of Republicans. The sagaoity, prin.
ciple. luck or instinct which 80 bene-
hted Democrats in securing positions.
we're entirely wanting to the Republi-
cans in retaining them. This is an
original way of accounting for what is
so saddening to the Radical heart all
over this country, and about az logical
as the arguments to prove the moon
made of green cheese. It hits Repub.
licanism back-handed lick, too,
which would make it exclaim, if it had
voice or any life left. "Save me from
my friends" AS, however, it is the
sort OF spurious Republicanism. other
wise known as Radicalism, fanked on
either side by corruption and maligni-
~, which has given Beast Butler and
such the power to establish satrapies
in the South, and disgrace the whole
country, we shall not say anything in
its defence. It is funny, again, to
read 10 onr luminous cotemporary, that
now the fats in the fire, those who re-
fused to support Republican candi.
dates in the canvass just passed, will
be good boys again, and not do 80 any
more. Having settled all the local and
personal questions by eiccting Dem O.
Gratis, they are expected to be vigor-
ously Republican. or, to put it mildly,
so back to the old vomit.
We must also correct another mis-
take of the Uatom- Herald. In en-
deavoring to show that Ropublicanism,
as it calls it, is not hurt, it has ven
tured to say that Republican has de-
feated Butler, OF Massachusetts, and so
"Republicanism loses nothing by his
defeat" We read the dispatches diff
ferently: "In tho 9Th District, Thomp-
son, Democrat. beats Butler by at least
1900" It is too soon to herald that

mocrat and defeated the Beast on those

vided always there be no moro such

TIE COLUMBIA SEA1INARY.-T Rev
j. 0. Lindsay writes an interesting
letter to the Associate Reformed Pres.
byterian. in which he gives n sum-
mary Of the arguments for aud
against the overture of tho Charles
ton Presbytery, asking the trans.
fer of the Seminary to the Synods
Of South Carolina, Georgia and Ala
bama, who had it originally in charge.
He says: "rhe vote was taken after a
three days excited discussion, and re-
suited in fifteen for the overture and
fifty nine against it. The opposition
to the Seminary mustered it's full
strength. 1t was led by the eloquence
OF DR.. Girardeau, who is highly appre-
ciated and profoundly respected
throughout our whole State, combined
with DR.. Wilson's great personal infu.
ence, who made a longer and more
animated speech than Nc ever heard
from him on the subject of Foreign
Missions; and yet WITH all this advan-
tage it failed, and failed most inglori-
ously. The brethren were greatly
mortified at their defeat. We are
heartily sorry for them-their mortif-
cation. not their defeat. The Synod
resolved to contribute. as in tin es
past, to the support OF the Seminary.
And We have no doubt that all this
opposition will result in good to this
aohool for the prophets"
