In this age of scepticism, facts are re
CURED to inspire confidence in the minds
of the people; but, with good indoors
ers they are willing to test any article
claiming extraordinary merit The pre-
prietors of Hair Remover offer the fol-
lowing Endorsement of the merits claimed
By them for their preparation, by the
Pittsburg, Pa, christian Advocates" viz:
"The public have so often been deceived
by the use of worthless preparations for
the hair, that an article of this kind, to
gain their favor and secure their patron
age, must possess real merit. We are
glad to assure our readers that Halls
Vegetable Sicilian Hair Remover is
meeting with the success which it's
merits so justly deserve; and we have
reliable evidence, that it will perform all
that is claimed for it, in restoring gray
hair to its natural color, and as perma-
nent dressing, is unsurpassed.

A HEALTH PROMOTING SrIMULANr.-
Physicians, who certainly ought to be
the best Jud ges of such matters, declare
that wholesome stimulation is not only
desirable but es sential in many instan-
ces. When the temporary good effect
OF sound stimulant is confirmed and
rendered permanent, as in the case of
Hostetters Stomach Bitters, by the &C

with it, becomes infinitely more efica-
ciOus as a renoVant of physical energy
and corrective Of those conditions of the
body which invite disease. The Bltters
have received the emphatic sanction of
medical men who have observed the eff.
feet Of that popular stimulative cordial as
a remedy for weakness, nervousness,

Judge B.J. Livingston, no in our midst
holding a term of his Court, is one of
the most distinguished Chaucellors in the
State. As an evidence of his clear
headed and impartial decisions, it is rep
resented that scarcely ever one of his
opinions is reversed by the Supreme
Bench-they always hold water. The
interests of the people are safe when in
the hands of such eminent Judicial
worth. Such men are an exception to
the usual drift of official character in
these disjointed times.

Forty. FOurth COngr ess-First Session
SENATE,

WASHINGTON. D. c., July 8,
The bill extending and continuing ten days
more the act recently passed to provide tenn
porarily for the expenditures of the govern
ment was passed.
Mr.. Anthony, from the Committee on Print
ing, reported bill to extend ten days more the
act authorizing the Congressional printer to
continue the public printing. Passed.
A resolution relative to the Congressional
printer was called up.
Committee on Printing and offered an amend
ment that three practical printers or publishers
investigate and report to the committee upon
the present mode of printing.
Alter short debate the subject was laid
over.
A resolution donating two cannon to Ston-
ington, Ct, was passed.
Mr.. Logan endeavored to have the bill equal
izing bounties taken up, but objection was
made, and he notified the Senate that he would
call it up every mornin G and call the yeas and
nays thereon.
The Senate then went into a court of i'm
parchment.
Adjutant General Townsend was examined
relative to letters, orders, etc. His testimony
showed that Evans was appointed post trader
at Fort Sill, that he had been charged with
taking whiskey into the Indian country, but
letters were shown stating that ten gallons of
brandy and ten gallons of whiskey were taken
to Fort Sill for the use of the officers by per-
mission; also that Fisher told Gen. GrierS0n
that he and Evans had to pay man in New
York 900 per year for their appointment as
post traders, but Fisher would not make such
statement in writing so that Grierson could
lay it before the proper authorities. Witness
knew of no answer to the letter from Grerson
containing the above statement from Secretary
Belknap.
On cross examination Mr.. Carpenter put ia
the evidence of the court martial of Capt. Rob
inson and his subsequent threatening letter TO
Belknap that if the latter did not reinstate
him he would expose the Fort Sill leadership
affairs, but that Belknap confirmed the action
of the court martial. Witness testified to re-
ceiying the action of the court martial from
the Judge advocate and the testimony was re-
ceived by vote of q against Is.
Correspondent Smalley testified to writing
an article in the Tribune In February 1879 in
regard to Fort Sill
Manager MacMahon asked him of whom he
got the information.
Mr.. Carpenter-That wont do, regular joar-
nalist is not bound to furnish any authority for
his statements.
Mr.. MacMahon withdrew his question.
The order of the War Department on the
subject of post traders subsequently was re-
ceived at the Office of witness, but nothing
further was ELECTED from witness of import
ance.
L. Whitney of the telegraph Office was re-
quired to produce several dispatches, but as
they did not bear on the case they were not
read.
Several kilograms from Belknap to Marsh
were put in evidence but they were not import
ant.

HOUSE.
By vote of &C to 8S the House refused to take
up the bill appointing commission to treat
with the Sioux for the cession of the Black
Hills.
The bill reported by the committee on Indian
affairs declaring the country north of the
North Platte river and east of the summit of
Big Horn mountain, in Wyoming territory,
open to exploration and settlement, was taken
up.
Mr. Steele of Wyoming, stated that it was
not fact that military operations were carried
on without reference to the peace policy. In
1868 treaty was made with the Sioux nation
which was grave mistake if it was not a ma
tional dishonor and disgrace That treaty has
been the foundation of all difficulties In the
Sioux country and the cause of the death of
Custer and his men IN that Big Horn country.
In 1866 General Pope established posts at Forts
Phil Kearney, Reno and G. l. Smith SO as to
open the roads to Montana and to protect the
country of the friendly Crows from the hostile
Sioux. In keeping those posts and opening
that road, many men, citizens and sold
iers had been killed. Notable among
the actions that had taken place there, was
the massacre of Fetterman and his COM
mand at Fort Phil Kearney, 90 men and off
GERS, and yet after these men had sacrificed
their lives, the government went to work and
made treaty by which it ignominiOusly aban-
doned that country to these savages, dismant-
ling its own posts and leaving there the bones
of the men who had lain down their lives in
the wilderness.
Mr.. Steele continued at great length animad-
verting upon the peace policy pursued towards
| the Indians.
Mr. Seelye of Mass, said Sitting Bull never
had made any treaty but had murdered whites
and indians alike. The reason for the present
Indian troubles could be traced to the failure of
the government by reason of lack of congress
| ional appropriations to supply them with food.
Without action the Indian bill went over
Mr.. Knott Of Ky, announced the sudden
death of his colleague, Parsons. A com mittee
was appointed to accompany the remains to

far fetched. 1t has been already mentioned at
the headquarters of the inhationists. In the Gin
cnnati Commercial, among its correspondence,
we find a statement of the reasons for the NOM
ination of Mr.. Hendricks to the Vice Presiden-
cy: The writer says, among other things: ga
delegate from New York assured me of his con-
yiction that there was no doubt of Tllden's
election" He added: "Mr. Hendricks will not
lose anything by accepting the nomination.
flden will not live through his term of Office.
il indeed he survives till election day. Mr..
Hendricks will be President within two years,
and in four years we can easily reflect him."
Mr.. Hendricks has accepted the nomination.
That Mr.. Tildep, to use mild expression, is
not robust man, every one who is acquainted
with him knows Several Presidents who were
much stronger than he have died before the
completion of their term. In case then of a
democratic victory, there would stand between
the Presidential chair and the leader of the in
hationists only one rather feeble human life
That is at any rate fact which no one can de-
ny.
If then there are friends of hard money who
can compose themselves in the presence of an
express reputation of a resumption promise,
made in the form of law and of the possibili-
~ of President Hendricks, let them reconcile
it to their conscience, not us. q. s.
