Scientific and Safe Treatment.

Hot sand baths have been introduced in London for rheumatic patients.
Connecticut western news., 1874-02-13

When applied with Dr. Pierces Nasal Douche and accompanied with Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery as constitutional treatment, Dr. Stages Catarrh Remedy produces perfect cures of the worst cases of Catarrh and Ozana of many years standing. This thorough course of medication constitutes the only scientific, rational, safe and successful manner of treating this odious disease that has ever been offered to the afflicted. So successful has it proven that the proprietor has long offered standing reward of $500 for case of Catarrh which he can not cure.
 INDIsPTTABLE EVIDENCE.
 THos. J. BISHOP, of South Brooklyn, N Y ., writes that his wife had. suffered since a child with Catarrh until it had resulted in what emi- nent physicians pronounced Consumption that she has used Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy with Dr. Pierses Golden Medical Discovery, and they have worked wonders with her case.

MPSHIRE.

The first returns from the New-lIampshire
election favor the Democratic and Liberal
opposition to the Administration, in vote
probably about the same as last year. The
Opposition claim the election of Weston for
Governor and majority in the House Of
Representatives, and perhaps the Senate
The Administration majority over oil for
Governor last year was 22S; plurality
2007. The returns so far as received indicate
that this is entirely wiped out, and that the
Opposition ticket has small majority in the
State. The nomination of McCutchins by the
Administration Republicans was considered a
very strong one, as it was intended to enlist
the sympathies and prejudices of the farmers !;
but there las been no time since the beginning of
the canvass when his supporters have ex-
pressed great confidence Of his election by the
people. The impression has prevailed that
the vote would be much lighter than last year,
and that there would be no choice of Governor
by the people, but that tho election would go
into the Legislature. ........
II is probably true that the appointment and
confirmation of Simmons affected the Admin
istration vote unfavorably. Pending the ac-
tion of the Senate upon the appointment, Sen
ator Wadleigh did not hesitate to say that
confirmation would defeat the party in New
Hampshire, and the event appears to
have verified his prediction. The cleo
ton has no national significance, ex-
cept as 1t expresses the prevalent
dissatisfaction with the party in power. Only
State officers and Legislature were chosen, and
into the choice of these personal and local
| considerations entered moro largely than any
questions of national politics. The result, il
entirely favorable to the Opposition. can hardly
be made the occasion of any great rejoicing

Of his DAYS in Watching for chance to cut
into the game in behalf of tho just claims
"of old Subsidy
The wonder is not that this spirit exists.
Meanness and greed are unfortunately
too common to excite surprise. But what
must cause equal disgust and won
der among oil right thinking people is the
fact that this claim is openly and oiamorously
made without shame or shyness in the press,
in the caucus, and even in the convention,
and no one is found TO say how sordid ana
how senseless it il. Ii is probably the most
universal vice Of our political life, for 1t IN
tests even the honest people. Mr. Lincoln
never entirely freed himself from 1T. though
he was gradually struggling loose from III In
the last years of his administration. After ne
had given Mr.. Wclles a seat in his Cabinet
he would not think of another New
England man for place. Even 80
late as when Mr.. Bates resigned IL did
not even occur TO him to ask who was
the best man in the United States for Attor-
ney-General, though he did consider himself
bound to appoint the best man he could find
in the Border States. 1t would be hard to
imagine an abuse more injurious to the public
service than this. 1t violates tho very lnten-
ton and spirit Of the Constitution in provid-
ing that members should represent the States,
and not particular counties, towns or villages.
There is no plausible excuse or justification
for it. The only pretensc is that Justice to the
several localities requires rotation, and the
only real explanation is that there are always
in every subdivision of territory. however
minute, one or two small politicians
whose selfishDcss and vanity will not
permit them to see another occupying place
which they want for themselves. 1t should be
the duty and pleasure of the voters OF dis
trict to suppress these restless nuisanccs, in
stead of aiding them by echOing their cry OF
locality. OF course no man has prescrIptlve
right to the place he holds. But if he is to
be defeated let it be for one of two reasons
that he is not fit for his seat. or that tho
district has q better man for it.

New-York tribune., 1874-03-11

The call for public meeting, to give utter
ance to the universal demand of the business
men of New-York for some prompt Congress
sional action fixing the volume of the cur
rency, should meet with general re-
sponse. 1t is possible that no public
meeting of business men here would
be able to agree on any positive de lara
ton as to what that volume should be; but
all recognize the power of Congress to settle
the matter, and the imperative necessity OF
having it settled at once. Those who
want the greenback currency to consist of
three hundred and sixty-six millions, those
who want it to consist of what is
issued now, and those who are anxious for
the full four hundred will alike agree in
demanding that something be done at once.
Till the decision is made. the whole
business Of the country stands stagnant.
Men refuse to trade with movable yard
sticks, to buy and sell grain in bushels with
adjustable bottoms, whereof no man controls
or ever knows the constant changes in the ad-
justmeut save Mr.. William A. Richardson. Until
Congress acts, business is mere gambling. Other
financial questions may await fuller discussion
this ought to be settled at once, and the voice
of New-YOrk to that end, if fairly collected
in such public meeting as is proposed, would
be unanimous and vehement.

Gen. Butler had tho temerity yesterday to
attempt defense of the Infamous Sanb0rD
contracts. That he failed utterly was due to
the shamelessness of his cause, not to his
lack of effrOntery. One other person, we be-
lieve, has made an essay in this direction
but Mr. Bliss has thus far met with no
greater success than Gen. Butler. Whatever
may be said of the theory of the bill under
which the Sanborn contracts were perfected,
1t is notorious that that contractor claimed
and received Onc-half of the proceeds of taxes
collected by officials appointed and paid to
perform that duty. A good sample case is
given on the third page of THE TRIBUNE to-
day. The Delaware, Lackawanna, and West
ern Railroad Company paid nearly 100000
into the Treasury of the United States for
taxes, after a delay caused only by the
difficulty which the revenue officials found in
fixing the various sums due. Sanbom never
appeared in the case at all until the Secretary
of the Treasury drew the COmpany's check,
when he (Sanborn) received one-half the
proceeds. 1t is only necessary to add that
this amazing piece of business was officially
approved by Mr.. l.. c. Banfield, Solicitor OF
the United States Treasury.

A Southern newspaper. in commenting upon the
reports of sermons in the newspapers, thinks that
"laymen will find it much cheaper to take the
papers than to pay pew-rents and dress in fashion
able church going costume" II the writer imagines
that the reporting of will tend to diminish
church-going, he is exceedingly mistaken. The
tendency, by increasing the taste for pulpit dis
eussions. will be in exactly the other direction.
The fact is tho preachers who the most fully
ported have usually the largest congregations The
advantage of publication is that Q man may listen
TO one sermon aud read half dozen others In this
way he keeps himself informed of the general our
rent Of religious discusson.t Whatever brings tho
pulpit into more intimate connection with the peo-
pie will also help to fill the pews, and to mako
bgion what it should be, a weekday matter We
have never heard popular clergyman complaining
of the effect Of sermon reporting upon attendance
at his church, complaining at all. except Of the

Secretary Richardson now wishes TO nave IL
believed that he never recommended increased
taxation to provide for the wants oil the
Treasury. II is of very little consequence.
Messrs. Garfield, Roberts, and some of the
other leading men in the House are anxious to
impress the country with the belief that the
revenues of the Government will in future be
amply sufficient Very well. If men in re-
sponsible positions are willing to take risks,
they cannot complain if they be held respon-
sible for the consequences if fortune decides
against them. We shall be glad To
ace expenditures cut down and the reve-
nues increase, but wo plainly express
our opinion that the amounts to be retrenched
are uncertain, and the estimates of the reye-
nue. too sanguine to be safe. The appropria-
tons are yet to be made, and tho revenues
are still to be collected. The period to be
covered ends nearly sixteen months hence, on
the 3Oth of June, 1875. One thing, however, is
assured-that from now until the Tuesday after
the first Monday in November next no true
" friend of the cause" will draw, or be per-
mtted to draw, any money from the Treasury
which is not imperatvoly needed.

Assembly have resolved to demand the ifnme-
diate consideration of charge against M
Gambetta of sacrificing the national defense
to political designs. There is an irony In this
resolution peculiar to tho members OF the
Right, whose whole legislative career shows
the subordinaton of every interest or the
State to their party purposes. Thecourso which
they have chosen in this particular matter is
glaring example of tho manner IN whion
they sometimes attempt to rid themselves OF
political opponent by disregard OF rights
which 1T should be their chief object to up
hold.
