Party or C0untry-Which ?

The N. Y. Tribune, while recalling the past
history of the Republican party, and dwell
ing with evident pride and satisfaction upon
the conspicuous and important part it took
in forming that history, says:
But country is more than party, and truth
is above all names. OF what significance is
the name of party which, twenty years ago,
was born out of opposition to the extension
of Slavery, passed through all the stages of
development till it eliminated in the estab-
lshment of the freedom and citizenship Of
all men, and then fell into the hands of men
who brought neither intelligence nor patrio-
tism to the task of organization, and only
contributed audacity and cunning to the
wrangle for the spoils? All that remains
of the party is the name. In common with
thousands of sincere patriots all over the
country, we should rejoice to see that rescu-
ed from the men under whose bad leadership
it has been discredited and disgraced. But
there seems to be a lack of the muscle and f.
Der, the courage and manlincss, to make the
attempt.
Without harmony or conference upon any
single question, agreeing in nothing EXCEPT
subservieucy to President whose will is alb
solute and whom it is bewilderment to fol-
low, the party leaders propose now one SUI
preme effort to retain power by q crime
against the Constitution and the peace of the
country The gravity of the crisis cannot
be oyerestimated. We appeal to Republi-
cans in Congress to consider well before they
make such q sacrifice as the President invites
them TO- There is no salvation, not even n
respite in it. 1t may be too late to save and
purify the party and set it forth on new ca
reer worthy its name and history. However
that may be, it is not yet too late to save
something to the country Of constitutional
freedom, and it is for this that we appeal to
the patriotism of individuals of the party not
to allow themselves to be bound by party
action or caucus dictation in so serious an
emergency.

CINYABAR DIsTR1CT.-F From Henry
Martin, who visited Cinnabar this week,
we get the following information The
wapon road from the retorts to the mines
has been completed, and is one of the
widest and best roads in the county. A
new road will also be built, to connect
from the retorts to the stage road at Da-
yis' place, and bridge will be erected
across the Trinity river at that point.
The entire distance from Davis place to
the mines is Is miles by the new road.
In the Boston and Altoona mines, rich
ore is still being taken out. On the day
of Mr.. Martins visit, the Altoona Com
many, with three small retorts, got 10
TASKS of quicksilver from 1900 pounds of
concentrated ore. In the Trinity mine,
the stringer mentioned last week is now
~ feet wide, and the company are fol-
lowing it. Trotter got two pounds of Gin
nabar in single pan of dirt from the
Trinity tunnel. Everything is fourishing
at Cinnabar and it is expected that at the
Presidential Election next year Cinnabar
will contend with Weaverville for the
honor of polling the largest number Of
votes in the county.

TEle Great Anti-PeriOdic.

The certainty and promptitude with
which Hostetter's Bitters cure the most
obstinate cases of malarial disease, and
the complete protection which they afford
the system against the miasmatic poison
which impregnates the air of low lying,
marshy localities, stamp them as the fore
most of American anti-periodics. Wher-
ever on this continent fever and ague is a
regular vistant-in the bottom-lands of
the South, the new clearings and mining
districts of the West, and in all localities
Of the Eastern and Middle States where
marlaria prevails, the Bitters are recog-
nized as the only true specific for the dis
ease, and its most reliable preventive
They are, moreover, safe and agreeable
as well as a certain remedy, and on this
account are UNNECESSARILY superior to the
preparations Of quinine, arsenic, bismuth,
and other mineral poisons, mistakenly
administered us curatives for maladies
caused by miasma, and which persisted
in, work irreparable injury to the
constitution.
Unfortunately, fever and ague and
other febrile complaints generated by
miasma are not the only evils which
result from it. A great variety OF
disorders are supepinduced by the irrita-
ton which it causes. Among these are
neuralgia, rheumatism, gout, periodical
headache, palpitation, painful affections
Of the spleen and various arrangements o
the stomach. When traceable to malaris
the above affections are apt to assume like
the disease which originated them, al
intermittent type that is to say, they
recur at regular intervals. Hostetter'
Bitters, however, obviates them all, by
banishing the niasmatic virus from tht
system.
