Eucalyptus VS.. Rheumatism.

One of our hote!-keepers, with
whom Mr.. Quinlan was acquaint-
ed, noticed among his guests a
man who had his arms and legs
bound up with leaves. Upon
questioning the party he learned
that he was afflicted with rheuma-
tism, and that he had bound the
diseased parts with the leaves of
the Eucalyptus tree, from which
he had experienced great relief,
and apparently almosta a perman
ent cure in a fews days. This in
telligence was communicated to
Mr.. Quinlan, who Immediately
tried the experiment, with the
most gratifying results. He pro-
cured a quantity of rank green
Eucalyptus leaves, and heating
each one slightly, bound them
upon parts in which he felt the
most pain The effe7t was mar

VIEWS OF ME-. WILSON.

Vice President Wilson Says a
Washington special to the Courier
Journal talks gloomy of tie pros
poets Of the Republican party, unless
the Administration programme be
changed. lie says that in the last
Presidential election the Republican
party obtained hundreds Of thousands
Of votes upon suferance merely being
the votes Of those who we're discon-
tented, but willing to give the Repub.
lican party another trial.
1t became necessary to modify the
policy Of the government, and to a
dopt policy of retrenchment and re-
form in order to retain this element OF
strength. He thought that al the
great issues upon which he Repub'i-
can party could win a victory IN
1876, but it must be by complete
change Of its present policy. The
appointment Of number Of Tx con
gressmen to prominent position Mr..
Wilson regarded as deplorable spec
tacle. He thought that these we're
the very last men to be cared for,
and that they ought to 60 home and
work their way back to the position
they had lost.

THE CREDIT SYSTEM.

OF all the evils that business inter
est are heir TO, perhaps there are
none that opens up surer or more
direct road to bankruptcy than the
indiscriminate credit system resorted
to by the various interests Of the
country. 1t is policy that is wrong
in both theory and practice. 1t is a
burden in the long ran to both the
seller and the buyer, simply because
the former cannot avoid losses 10
some extent by bad debts, while the
latter must inevitably pay higher
price for everything he or she buys
than would be demanded if cash was
paid down Then again, the system
involves an outlay Of millions of dol
lars every year by both buyer and
seller where courts Of law must be re
sorted to in order to adjust debts
growing out the system. The best
of friends are often made the most
bitter enemies over real or imagina
ry differences growing out Of time
accommodations But this does not
end the list Of evils that follow in It's
train. 1t stimulates competition in
the manufacturing interests of the
country t. all extent that Is certain
to result in over production, which
is sure to involve The producer in Sc
rious embarraSsments and losses.
Take the many heavy failures in the
eastern states during the past half
dozen years, and in nine cases out
of ten over production-the Ieglti-
mate fruits Of this credit system -
was the real cause of such failures.
The system is the parent Of -eXtrava-
gance, is a twin sister to poverty,
misery and percharcc vice In bsief,
it benefits no one but lawyers and
courts, and is therefore burden and
obstruction to the bushes, interest Of
the couutry.-Dajton EnteJprlsc.

THE HOMESTEAD.

EulroRS JOURNAL-The time has
come when We should examine our
present condition, and also our tu
ture prospects. We, the people,
Young and old, white aud black, a~e
all taught by the present laws that
it is lust and honorable for US to VIC
late our sacred and written promises
all made in good faith, and the eby
deprive honest men Of their just
rights Now if we are not worth
more than three thousand dollars our
solemn promise, though made to the
poor, shall not be binding, neither
shall our property be taken to pay
our lust debts. Now we have no
law that will force 4 dishonest man
to comply with his contracts though
he has plenty of property to do l:
with.
Such arrangements are mwlse,
UNJUST and very oppressive 10 Tue
poor and honest creditors, their
wives and helpless children there
fore when We screen one man from
Just liabilities, we do it at the eX-
pense If another man, The com
mand is do Justice and love mercy.
The great object and the individual
interest of all governments are to se>
cuue Justice to every citizen, and
and tins can be done only by hold
ing every one responsible for what
they do and say.
Make mans word his bond, and
compel him to pay all just demands
if he is able i: he is not able taxi
Whist he has, aud not leave him three
thousand dollars worth as reward
for dishonesty. There is as much
Justice in allowing man to hold ff-
tv thousand dollars that he justly
owes to his neighbor, as to only give
him three thousand. The whole in
hucnce of the Homestead is to en-
courage and support rascali;y. Il
tramples upon the rights of honest
creditors it strikes at the credit of
the poor; it invites the rising gen
Grafton to leave the path Of duty for
a few dollars, and it is destined to
destroy confidence AID then pro-
claim that wrong is right.

ported Grant in any of his usurpa-

regard to his vote with the Radicals

in giving a vote by which no change

VALENTINES RECUMRENT FIG
URE OF GEN. LEE

The studio Ct the Virginia scuIp
tor. Mr. Edward Y. Valentine, in
Richmond, was crowded on Friday
with a constant stream of visitors, IN
Guiding all classes OF the community,
the chief attraction being the marble
recumbent figure of Gen. Robert I.
Lee, which has Just been completed.
The Dispatch gives the following de-
scription Of the completed figure:
"Itisa life representation of Gen
Lee rcposing upon a couch. The
figure and couch are Of one piece Of
exquisite v hite marble, unmarried by
ahaw, and equal to the finest Parlan.
The artist represents the hero
dressed in Confederate uniform, and
lying in calm, half sleeping, halfoor>
scious repose. The right arm is
thrown across the breast, while the
left ~ by his side and rest lightly
upon lis sword, Mr.. Valentine had
the sanction Of such renowned works
Of art as Rauch's King William and
Queen Louise of Prussia, Hofgar
denis Duchess OF Nassau, at Wiesba
I'd n, and KISS Countess Htnekcl Won
Dcuncrsmark.
The faitfulness of the portrait is
m $. remarkable. All who know the
general in civil or military life are
ST. uck with the ex8ctness 81 the like
ness, and its suggcstiyeness Of the
mental ard moral characteristics of

ease. There is a most noticeable ab-

which are thought by some to be in
snparablc from sculpture. and which
are oppressive is some of the figures

There is man living not one
hundred miles from this place who
owns land which is SO poor that gu

surprised if all our farmers owned
this kind of land, for hey all are
pitching into the guano.
