Don't Hack, Hack, Cough, Cough

Cough is a symptom by which various diseased
conditions of the throat, bronchial tubes and lungs
manifest themselves. But whether it arises from
the irritation produced in the throat apd larynx
by taking cold, from attack of bronchitis, from
incipient consumption or from various other
causes, nothing will allay it more speedily or cure
it more permanently than DIR. Pierce's Golden
Medical discovery. 1t does not matter whether
it be recent attack or lingering cough, the
Discovery is in ether case eqnally well adapted
for its relief and permanent In fact, it will
cure cough in one-half the time necessary to
cure it with any other medicine, and it does it,
not by drying it up, but by removing the cause,
subduing the irritation and healing the affected
parts No time should be lost in commencing the
use of proper medicine for the relief of cough,
for unless this is pursued serious and dan
gerous disease Of the lungs is liable to result.

TIE CIVIL RIGHTS ELL.

The Civil Rights Bill as passed by the
House is a very moderate measure. 1t
provides for equal privileges for all class
es Of people at inns. in public convey
ances, at theatres and other places of
amusement, under the conditions and linz
itations established by law and applicable
alike to all citizens without distinction of
race or color. 1t provides for no mixed
schools, the clause to that effect in the or.
iginal bin having been struck out before
the bill passed. Yet moderate as the bill
is the whole body of the democracy in the
House opposed it to the last. large mum

THE LEADER or TIE H0TSr

a contemporary says that Gen. Buffers failure
to lead the Republican side of the House of Rep
resentasiyes seems to tickle the New York Tribune
amazingly. But the Tribune would have been
Just as much tickled if anybody else had failed to
lead the party, for in fact the Tribune is not SC
much troubled about the party. During Greeley
later years he was never entirely satisfied with
the leaders the party chose for ITSELF and the reas
on became manifest when he himself ran for Pres
ident on the democratic ticket. Hence the
paper founded by Horace Greeley" cannot for
give anybody for trying to lead and discipline the
Republicans.
The true leader OF the House was shown in the
contest over the new rule to be James q. Blaine,
Speaker, and it would be difficult to find his equal
on either side Of the Chamber. If the Civil Rights
bill becomes q law Gen. Buffers resolute effort:
in its behalf will be properly honored.
Since the day of Thaddeus Stevens, no member
has shown anything like the ability that was dis
played by Mr. Bla ne during the late debate on
the modification of the rules.
He beat the combined Opposition easily, grace
fully, decidedly. Cox, Randall Lamar, etc, fell
before him, after an Intellectual struggle. 1t was
the contest of the strong against the weak-the
ready against the unready-the eloquent against
the dull.
Mr.. Blaine illustrated the best profits of the
trained, practised, ready and courteous, mastery
debater. Full of knowledge, acting from earnest
motives, witty, temperate, good-natured, strong
in common sense, thoroughly up in parliamentary
law, its theory and practice, and withal gentle
man of high and generous breeding, he beat hi.
opponents easily.
Ills dramatic" point was well made, and il
struck home, greatly to the discomfort of Mr.. Cox
who has not been at his best lately, and whose
ttleness is seen in twtting Butler, that he is "no
to come back 80
1t is plain that the leader has come, and that hi.
name is Blaine -Piladelphia Paper.

y OUGHF4CES PEBUKED.

In his remarks upon the civil rights bill on the
day of its passage in the House, Mr.. Garfield re-
buked doughfaces as follows:
have heard enough during the last y years Of
this fear that we should shake down the pillars o.
our party by doing Just such things. remember
very well when it was proposed TO put arms into
the hands of the black men to help us in the field
that i'll the Army Of the Cumberland, where there
were 10000 kentuckian and Missourian troops,
many of the officers told that the troops would
throw down their arms and would never fight O
day if the negro was put in blue and given a gun
but it was done, and the men who loved the Union
stood by and Joined with the negroes to save it.
When we were aboishing slavery by the 18th
Amendment to the Constitution, we were warned
here that we were bringing measureless calami-
ties on the Republic. Did they come? Where
are the Cassandras Of that day, who sang their
song of ruin over our heads as we passed the 18th
Amendment And again, when the l4th Amend
ment 10 the Constitution was proposed, we heard
this same song Of ruin in our ears. When it was
and to give him the ballot, 1t was said to be the
last drop the measure of our ruin; but did that
ruin GOMEZ And now, when it is simply provided
in this bill that a citizen. man, member of the
Senate, shall in his swn State enjoy those public
privileges, those chartered privileges granted un-
der the laws OF the State unto all citizens,
told that red ruin is again before us. All Mr..
Speaker, the kind of cowardice which shrinks
from the assertion of great principles, has fol-
lowed this Anti-Slavery fight from the beginning
to the end, and God taught us early in that fight
that the fate of our own was indissouby
linked with the fate Of the black race on this con-
tnent; not socially-for we are none Of Us bound
by social ties except by our own consent-but po
ltically, III rights under the law.
Rude seems the song; each swarthy face,
Flame-lighted, ruder still.

republicans. The republican opposition
came mostly from the South.
Whether the Senate will accept this bill
in lieu Of the one passed by that body re-
mains to be seen. 1t will probably be
better TO take this than nothing 1t will
doubtless help to improve the condition
ofthe colored people in the South, and
any measure which does that legitimate

were living and in the Senate he wonld
oppose it as not going far enough, but the
opposition which the school feature of the
Senate bin meets from the republican rep
resentatives of the South weighs heavily
against the efforts of northern republicans
who would like TO adopt that provision.

There is very much suggestive truth in
these words from the Cincinnati Gazette !:
The Democrats thought they would make a
great deal of capital out of that Louisiana busi-
ness. Instead they have walked up slumbering
Republicans and War Democrats all over the
country, and insured the election Of a Republican
President in 1876. Nothing like a clear showing
of rebel hands in these days. There was cor
responding exhibition in 1852, and the following
year Brough carried Ohio by 100000 majority,
and Lincoln walked over the course in 1864.
The Gazette has struck the nail on the
head, It is our firm conviction that, il
Congress will wisely dispose of what re-
mains of the Louisiana question, the Re
publican party will profit and the Demo
cratic party will suffer from the events OF
the past three weeks. Why? Because
these events have brought out the malign
spirit of the rebel Democracy rs it has not
been exposed before since the close of the
war, and because il has thus reused the
country TO new sense Of the danger in
volved in placing this rebel Democracy in
power.--Aijany Journal,
