SPEAKER BLAINE'S TRIUMPH.

Though Mr.. Blaine has been compelled
by the mutation of politics 10 retire from
the Speakers chair OF the House of Rep
resentatiyes, the grandest. most trium-
plant hour of his life was that In which
he laid down the gavel for the last time
at the close of the XL1II Congress. The
reports from the various correspondents OF
the leading newspapers of the country of
all shades of political opinion agree that
no such ovation was ever witnessed in the
House by any living member of that body.
Editorially the New York Tribune says
Mr.. Blaine carries from the chair which
The has adorned for the past six years the
reputation of having been the best
Speaker the House of Representatives
"has had since Henry Clay. This is not
"a partisan verdict, but the judgment Of
..both sides of the House and the grace
"ful expression given to IL yesterday by
''Mr. Blaine's opponents was only more
"formal recognition of what they have for
"years admitted"
This is not the language of tiattery or
partizanship but the estimate OF II paper
by no means friendly to Mr. Blaine. More
testimony of the same kind we find in an
editorial of the New York Herald, as fol.
lows: THE unusual compliment paid to
'sMr. Blaine, the Speaker of the House
during the Forty-third Congress, on the
occasion of his retirement from the chair,
"was well deserved, and will meet with
1.-THE appreciation of the country. Mr..
blaine has proved himself to be the best
Speaker we have had since the time of
Henry Cloy. Able, prompt. decisive,
blending neither to the right nor the left
remembering his party, but never SER
"vile to it; respecting the majority, of
course, but always protecting the minor
"ity with an instant command of all the
resources of parliamentary law; with
prudence. firmness and discretion, it
WAS a graceful thing that democrat
like Mr.. Potter should propose to honor
him, and very fit that the House should
'.adOpt Mr.. Potters motion with enthus-
asm."
In Mr.. Blaine's triumph none rejoice
more sincerely than his friends in the
Third District of Maine HIS honors are
theirs. They raised him from private sta
tion into public life. and most splendidy
has he rewarded them by caring for their
interests and winning the proud distinc-
ton which he wears as the best Speaker
OF the House since Henry Clay.

The Wrong Side Of the Meridian.

YHE CANDIDATES AND THE ISSUES

FHE CANDIDATES AND THE ISSUES.
The attempt to palm off the Meonian
Hall gathering as anything else than a
democratic caucus has proved an utter
failure. The nominations for aldermen,
with Vassal d. Pinkham at the head,
prove this. Mr. Badger, the democratic
candidate for Mayor, is a gentleman OF
business integrity, a good citizen but
always reliable democrat and 4 strong
supporter of his party and its measures.
As a business man, however, and a citi-
zen, his warmest friends will not claim
that he stands ahead of Daniel A. Cony.
In these respects the two gentlemen are
peers.
The issue to-day is fairly between the
democratic and republican parties. PIN
ciples not men, are the test. Democrats
vote for w. S. Badger and Vassal D. Pink
ham and their party associates, and repub-
licans will unite as one man in support OF
Daniel A.. Cony and the candidates asso.
ciated with him-the representatives OF
the political organization on whose power
and patriotism the country has chiefly de-
pended the last fourteen years. Let no
republican fail to be at the polls to-day.

TO THE POLLS!

The paramount duty of the republicans
of Augusta to-day is to see that the full
republican vote Of the city is cast and the
republican candidates elected. The dem
ocrats were never more determined to do
their level best 10 carry an election than
they now are. They will bring out the
last man that will vote their ticket. They
will spare no influence to defeat us. They
are organized thoroughly We must
meet them with equal determination. No
republican should wait to be asked to-day
to deposit his vote in the ballot-box. Let
there be no hesitation, no tagging, en- the
part of those who are known as decided
republicans. The honest republican vote
is enough to give us clean and handsome
victory, and the earlier that is cast the
better. There is no possibility of evading
the issue to-day, no one so blind as not to
see that we strike in behalf of something
more than good municipal government.

General Fitz John Porter who has been ap-
pointed Commissioner of Public Works in New
York City, is trying hard to have a rehearing of
his case. In the New Jersey Legislature on
Tuesday resolutions urging the President Of the
United States to review the evidence were passed.
In the course of the debate Mr.. McGill supported
the resolutions with a speech, and warm discus.
sion ensued. Mr.. Goble Of Ocean ikened Gen
Porter to Benedict Arnold, and was very warm in
his denunciation. Mr.. Youngblood moved to lay
the resolutions on the table, and, making the mo-
ton, remarked that had the General received his
deserts he would have been executed.

The PuSsic Confidence Well Placed.

Although the world has been seeking
specifics for disease for many centuries,
few indeed have been found. Prominent
among these few is Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters, which years ago received the en-
dorsement of the medical profession, and
was hailed by press and public as the great
renovant and preventive of the age. And
With good reason, since to the weakened
stomach it gives strength and to the torpid
liver activity, to the disordered bowels
regularity, and to the shaken nervous sys-
tenn frmness and tone, Under its benig-
nant influence healthful vigor returns to
the debilitated and wasted frame, the fac
cid muscles become compact, the wan as
pect of i'll health is replaced by look of
cheertulness, the mind ceases to despond,
and flesh is developed upon the attenuated
frame. There IS no exaggeration in this
statement. IL Is as true as that the system
Is subject to disease. Were proofs reQuir-
ed to su lbs tantiate the reality of the COM
prehensive effects of the Bitters, there is
not pro oha bly, in existence medicine, in
favor of which such mass OF concurrent
testimony, from the most respectable
sources, could be adduced. But the eth-
cacy of the nations Alternative and invigor-
ant has been matter of universal know
ledge too long To need any such corrobora-
ton. The fact that it has its largest sales
in those portions of the North and South
American Continents, Mexico, and the
West Indies, in which atmospheric influ-
ences prejudicia to health exists, proves
what confidence is felt in its remedial and
protective virtues. In localities where
ievers of an Intermittent type prevail, es
pecially, it has come to be regarded as an
indispensa BILE necessity.
