CHURCH L. GATES, wealthy lumber
merchant of New York, committed
suicide recently by shooting himself in
his bachelor quarters over his Mott Ha-
ven office. Mr.. Gates was undoubtedly
of unsound mind, and this impression
was forced upon the minds of his fellow
voyagers during recent balloon trip of
Mr.. Donaldson. One of the passengers,
it will be remembered, persisted in sway
ing his body on the outside of the bal
loon in the most alarming manner; and
in an unguarded moment, while at
a great altitude, he climbed on the out
side of the car, and by the rigging. to
the perch beneath the neck of the bal
loon occupied by Mr.. Donaldson. The
person who performed these reckless
feats was the man who committed
suicide.

DIR. WALKER tried various extracts
from herbs and roots, without benefit.
He noticed, however, that alcohol, that
bane of the human race, was used in
their preparation, and he determined to
exclude the poison entirely from his own
practice, so that the sin of making men
drunkards, while pretending to cure
them, should never lie at his door. The
Almighty blessed his experiments, and
in the VINEGAR BITTERs he has pro-
duced pure, health-restoring agent,
which banishes disease in every form,
re-invigorates the system, and restores
strength to the feeblest sufferer. There
is no part of life's citadel where the
enemy can make a Judgment, that the
VINEGAR BITTERs will not find him, and
put him to the rout. Lmpurity of blood
is the parent of disease; the liver, the
stomach, the lungs, the nerves, every
vital organ is affected primarily, from
this cause, and in this direction the VIM
EGAR BrTTERs acts with magical in
fluence. 81

SAVE MONEY.-It is well worth saving,
and you can rave it in buying sewing ma
chine, and get one of the best and most per-
feet machines in existence. The Wilson
shuttle sewing machine has reached point
of excellence and perfectness equaled by
no machine in use, and the constantly and
rapidly increasing demand, which is almost
beyond their manufacturing capacity to sup
ply, is convincing evidence that the merits
of this machine arc appreciated. Machines
will be delivered at any railroad station in
this county, free of transportation charges,
il ordered through the company at Cleve-
land, Ohio. They send an elegant cata-
logue and chrome circular free on applica-
ton. This company want few more agents.

Comparative Military Strength OF Ger
many and France.

[secrotary Mccullough in New York Tribune.l
Were the armies which are now in
preparation for war disbanded, there
would be no breaches of the peace be-
tween nations, and there would speedily
be no national debts. A period of peace
is especially needed by France, and she
would have that peace il she disbanded
her army. "The Empire is peace" was
the remark of Napoleon Ill. What a
blessing it would be to France and to
civilization everywhere if she would now
say, "The Republic is peace" and verify
the saying by following the example set
by the United States at the close OF the
late civil war. If she should do so she
would shame every European nation
into doing the same. France is q rich
country, but there is limit to her wealth.
She has high financial credit, but there
must be eventually an end to her ability
to borrow. United Germany, unless her
strength should be distracted by ecclesi-
astical questions, which is not probable
for when the test is applied it will be
found that Catholic Germans are more
German than Catholic-United Ger
many, with her freedom from debt and
her full military chest, her larger popu-
lation, and the greater submission to dis
cipline of her citizen soldiers, will always
be more than match for France in war.
France, indeed, has everything to lose
and nothing to gain by another contest
with Germany. AS military nation
she is not equal to Germany, but she is
superior to Germany in the excellence of
her soil, the variety of its productions,
and in the taste, the skill and refinement
of her people. The aim of France should
be to excel all nations in the arts of
peace. This she now does to great ex-
tent, and she would do so in still
greater degree if she would forget her
triumphs under the great CorsicaH, and
get over the delusion which she indulges
that she must become again the great
war power of Europe.

THE spEAKERsHIP.

The coming man for the speakership
Of the United States House Of Repre-.
sentatives will probably be selected to-
day; at all vents the telegraph tells
as that the rival Democratic candidates
have agreed upon the holding of q
caucus at 2 o'clock p. M, with MI.
Lamar, of Mississippi, in the chair.
The candidates are Messrs. Kerr, Ran
dali and Cox, with the chances, we
think, favoring the election of the first
named. Some weeks ago Mr.. Kerr
appeared to have the fight all his own
way, but lately the Republican press
has been assailing his hard money rep
utation on the alleged ground that
he supported the Democratic ticket in
Indiana last year without q word Of
denunciation of its platform, which is
claimed to have been tainted with the in
fiation heresy. However that may be,
Republican newspapers and politicians
would do we'll to bear in mind that
the money issue was unborn at that
time; that it is only within the last
nine or ten months that the hard
money theory has grown into such
wonderful favor as to overshadow ev-
erything else; that no longer ago than
the Winner OF 1874 the Republican ma
jority in both houses of Congress
passed an initiation bill, and that its
veto by President Grant came very
near blowing sky-high this hard money
Republican party-then rampant for
inflation-and would have done so but
for the subsequent compromise, as Our
Jones will bear witness, which found
ex pression in the so-called resumption
bill, but which is in reality an imitation
measure of the most dangerous and
expansive type in disguise. If those
Republicans who voted in 1874 for
Morton's imitation bill are good hard
money men now, ON the ground that
they have since that time been convert
ed to the new faith, we don't see why
Mr.. Kerr or Mr.. Randall or Mr.. Any
bndyelse may not set up q similar
claim based on a similar conversion.

Last evening, saw the Carson T1T-
bae of the LIST, we listened to some of
the testimony and the argument in the
divorce case of Richards VS.. Richards.
As usual when husband and wife are
pitted against each other, not only
unpleasant but really ~disgraceful EVIL
dence was introduced. An exceeding
ly bright boy some thirteen years of
age-the only issue of the marriage OF
the parties was called to testify; and
it was a sad sight, a truly sad sieht, to
zee hat poor boy clinging to his father
and at the same time being compelled
to criininate his mother. The case was
ably handled by counsel IN both sides.
Judge Wells concluding in a mastery
argument. 1t is to be hoped that the
judgment of the Court may be such
that the boy in question may forever
be removed from the communicating
influences that have surrounded him
since his birth.

Tine whisky Traues.

CHICAGO, Dec. 8.
A Washington special says news has
been received there that j. w. Bing-
IAN pleaded guilty to five indictments
found against him i'm Indiana for
whisky frauds and had also gone be-
fore the Grand Jury. This is regarded
as news of great importance. The
Binghanis, besides their connection
here in the whisky ring and their IA
%cilities for obtaining information from
Joyce and Mcdonald, also had an In
diana connection with the Washington
Department through which they we're
in receipt of intelligence. Frequently
they were ahead of the st. Louis ring
in getting news from Washington. and
would send the Information to their
agent, who would report to Joyce and
Mcdonald and il would be acted upon.
1t is believed here that Bingham can
open up a perfect bonanza Of corrup-
ton, embracing some Indiana radicals
OF high station and throw light on the
authority by which the raising of cam
paign funds was inaugurated in 1872,
by crooked whisky. Some of the dis.
tillers claim that they we're shown a
letter from Senator Morton in 1872,
speaking in behalf of the National Re-
publican Committees, and giving direc-
tons in regard to the raising of a con
tribution from Missouri. This letter
from Morton vas shown them by rev.
enue officials and the construction put
upon the letter by these officials was
that the National Republican Execu-
tive Committee authorized the raising
of funds at the expense OF the Inter
nal Revenue and coventry guaranteed
the protection of the distillers if they
went into the ring and paid half the
tax to the revenue official. to be used
for campaign purposes. From all this
ii is believed that Bingham il he makes
a clean breast, will open up an almost
entirely new field. There is a story to
the effect that the Grand Jury is with
holding its vote on the proposed in
dictment against Babcock until lie can
arrive and have a chance to appear be-
fore 1t aud make explanations.
