Ash Them.

An advertisement of a medicine, however candid
and conscientious ii may be- does not always carry
conviction with it. The public know to their sor
row that the b0astul claims put forth in behalf OF
many so-called remedies are literally "a delusion
and snare" Probably the best use, therefore,
tce of Hostetters Stomach Bitters is to invite those
who read it to inquire of the parties that have test.
ed the curative and preventive properties of the
article what they think of it. We earnestly re-
quest all doubters to ascertain from such OF their
friends and neighbors as have taken this standard
tonic and Alternative as protection against mala-
rious diseases, or as cure for indigestion, liver

CONNECTICUT ELECTION.

Connecticut will hold its State election
next Monday. There are three candidates
for governor in the field, Harrison on the
republican ticket, Ingersoll on the demo
cratic, and Gillette the temperance candi-
date. Last spring the democrats elected
their ticket by majority over all of 3237
The vote was; republican, 39, PAS; demo
cratic. 45,o59; temperance, 254l. In 1872
the republicans carried the State by 25
majority in 1871 the republican majority
was 100.
The State is very closely divided In
terest in the result is heightened by the
fact that the legislature to be elect
ed will have the privilege and re-
sponsibility of choosing United States
Senator to succeed Senator Buckingham,
whose term will expire next March Mr..
Buckingham is candidate for reelection,
and the names of Elk Governor Jewell and
Gen. Hawley are also mentioned as candi-
dates. The democrats are divided upon
the Senatorial question between 1ngersoll,
English and Barnum.
The prospect is that the democrats will
carry the State. The legislature how
ever will be very close. In the last legs-
lature the democrats had majority OF
four on joint ballot, but the republicans
had majority of one in the Senate. There
has been no public speaking or other ef'
fort to arouse public enthusiasm. With a
sound platform and popular ticket the re-
publicans deserve success, but appearances
are not very much in their favor

show that on one of the main questions before
the country the Democratic party has no
policy at all? And is this not equally true OF
specie payments, protective tariff, and even
the transcendently important subject of cor
ruption in Office ?-[New York Sun.
A Concord, N. II. correspondent of the
Boston Journal says:
The Democrats are still discussing the
question of the distribution of offices at the
sitting of the Legislature. The cry for the
removal of Republican incumbents is loud
and universal. The Laconia Democrat has
for prominent leader list of nearly all the
removals that were included in tho clean
sweep of the Republicans in 1856. The same
paper says: "The long waited for day for
retributive justice seems nigh at hand. The
ak the Republican party made with which to
decapitate Democrats is State property,
rusted by blood and disuse. 1t can be ground
and polished SO as to work as well as at first. "
The above is good idea of the feeling gen
orally entertained by the Democrats on the
removal question.

EUGENlE AND THE PRINCE I'M
PERIAL.

correspondent of the New York Times
writing of the Chiselhurst celebration, des-
scribes the consort of Louis Napoleon and his
son as follows:
81 found the Empress looking older than
when last met her. as q matter of course,
after her great SORROWS and trials, but 4 very
beautiful woman. She has that clear COM
plexion which shows too plainly the ravages
Of time and Of care, but her blonde and still
luxuriant hair, and the charming oval of her
face, will never grow old. 1t was only after
hours of most fatiguing work that she showed
the signs of age which some remarked; but
her sweet and winning smile and the sympa-
thetic glance which she gives from her lmpid
blue eyes, make one forget to notice other de-
tails, remarked only on close inspection. If
not an Empress, she would still be called as
handsome q woman of her age as can be found
at any court. And to this must be added the
charm Of her manners, which captivate all
hearts. The Empress was dressed in black,
wore no ornaments whatever. and had black
bonnet, elegant in appearance, but yet very
simple and unpretending. Her dress being
short, she looked much smaller than usual,
and less tall than when seen 10 the long robes

FINANCIAL DEBATE.

The debate in the Senate on Wednesday
was one Of the sharpest of the session.
Senators talked as though in earnest, and
with sense of the responsibility involved
in their action. The waking up of the
new Senator from Nevada, Mr.. Jones,
the millionaire, created sensation favor
able to the opposers Of initiation, as well
as to Mr.. Jones personally. He was
brought to his feet by some remark of Mr..
Morton, and in speech of an hour and a
half gave his opinion upon financial mat
tiers. He declared himself opposed to the
issue of any more irredeemable paper
money and in favor of specie, and show
ing such good reasons for his opposition
to imitation as to be applauded from the
galleries and receive an ovation at the
close of his speech.
In the house there was also lively
time over the same subject. Speeches
were made by Mr.. Phelps of New Jersey
and General Hawley of Connecticut that
rang with sound sense and strong denun-
citation Of imitation. Mr.. Hawley declared
that there was no road to resumption
through expansion. except the one that
passes by way of reputation, and he
warned the House that any new issue of
irredeemable paper would be a violation
of the solemn pledge Of Congress to the
nation, and would be the beginning of a
course that would result in financial disas-
ter and national dishonor. He cited with
great effect the laws authorizing the issues
of legal-tender notes the public credit list
Of 1869 pledging the Government speed
lily to redeem them in gold; the decision
Of the Supreme Court declaring the power
to make paper money legal tender only
defensible under the Constitution as a
war power; and finally, the platforms of
both parties in the last Presidential cam
paign promising an early resumption.
The opponents of initiation are making
good fight, showing that they have the
best of the argument and the brains of
Congress with them, though they posi-
bly, have not the numbers to carry their
measures. The contest over the free
banking clause is watched with interest,
for on its fate depends much Of veal or
woe to the country.
