A Flower that Changes its Color.

Botany is division of natural science
which treats of plants, and study of
Vegetable Physiology must be The foun-
datioh Of botanical knowledge-a study
OILY possible BY the improvements in the
microscope and lii organic chemistry. As
plants are hot scattered haphazard over

studied, aid, With this, plant=history.
Botany will: be applied to the Wants Of
everyday life; as f11 Agriculture; Horti-

often exhibit ifiatysl1us instinct in se-
lecting medicinal herbs, and afi oRserya-
ton of their habits has often, even in the
present time, led to most valuable discoy-
cries. And should man, with his knowl-
edge and appliances, fail to discover less
than the brute7 1t is of Medical botany
re would speak, or of the HEPATINE
PLANT, discovered IN Southern Nubia,
the Flower of which changes its color
with every change of the atmosphere.
The remarkable changes and variations
of this Plant and Flower have been for
years our special study, resulting in the
discovery Of its possession of wonderful
medical properties, the existence and
value of which have heretofore been en-
tirely unknown to medical science. Af-
ter much labor and scientific investiga-
ton; we have succeeded in extracting its
peculiar medicinal principles, which is a

nent cure for Dyspepsia, Indigestion,
Spleen, Constipation, Jaundice, and all
Bilious Complaints. Of course we can
not send living Flower of this Plant to
all who read of Hepatine butto all who
will send their address to MERRELL &

Ex.TREASURER PARKER.

The Columbia Sunday San has been in.
formed chat the health of Ex-Treasurer
Parker, which was said to be IN preca-
rious condition, has SO far improved that
he is able to be cut again. 1t is also re-
ported that he has concluded to return to
Columbia, and may be expected within a
few weeks. The Ex-Treasurer ought to
confirm these reports speedily by making
appearance among former associates in
thievery, and giving the State the benefit
of his knowledge as the Moneys and
Leggetts of former days. 1t would be
sacy reading for the summers campaign.

PRESIDENTS CABINET.

Some notable changes occurred the
ether day in the advisory council of Pres
ident Grant. Attorney General Pierre.
pont retires therefom, and has been made
minister to England. He is succeeded as
Attorney-Gen by Judge Taft, late
Secretary of War, and Don Cameron, son
of Simon Cameron, has been made Sec
retary of War. The last appointment
would seem to indicate taat Gen. Grant
is arranging combination to control the
nomination at Cincinnati, for he has not
been upon good terms with the Camerons
for some time past. 1t is probable that
he has not despaired altogether in regard
to third term, or may be working to
elevate his friend Conkling.

THE COMMISSIONERS OF ELECTION. n

It viii be remembered that the Cen
tennial Legislature, among other things
ofa vicious and hurtful nature, attempted
to take the appointing power away from
the Governor, in so much as to deprive
him of the privilege now accorded under
the law of designating the Commissioners
of Election, upon whose conduct as faith
full and upright officers SO much depends
in the way Of a fair election next fall.
There was hitch in the programme,
however, and not enough strength was
secured by the worst elements of the Re-
publican party to accomplish this nefa-
rious design, by which they hoped to get
control of the machinery and insure the
chances for manipulating the vote of the
State to suit their own purposes, as was
done in the campaign of 1870 and. 1872.
The appointing power was not taken
away from the Governor, and upon that
Official will devolve the duty and respon-
sibility of choosing three men in every
county, who will have charge of the mode
and manner in which the election will be
conducted. These men can guarantee
the fairness and correctness of the ascer-
tanned result, and the selection of honor
able and discreet men for the position
will indicate the purpose of Gov. Cham
berlain to protect the purity and integri-
ty of the ballot-box. If he is the genuine
reformer so many of our Democratic
friends believe him to be, there can be
no doubt as to his action in the premises,
and we shall have quiet and peaceful
election under the supervision of honest
and upright Commissioners. But we are
astonished to learn that an argument is
being made against the policy of running
straight-out ticket for State officers, on
the ground that it will never do to antag-
onize the Governor, so long as he has it
in his power to appoint the Commission
ers of Election. This is virtual admis-
sion that his conduct and exercise of the
appointing power will be controlled by
selfish and partisan motives! Its fatal
admission by his confessed friends and ad-
mirers. His professions of reform count
for naught, if he regulates his course
in Office by the. elastic standard of Scott
and Moses, whose acts in this respect
were subordinated to partisan an d selfish
ends. It is truly the hardest blow yet
stricken at the Apostle of Reform, when
any one who is recognized as favorable
to his reelection will suggest the possibil-
ity of the election being manipulate d
through the agency of his appointees.
Such left-handed compliments will as
suredly destroy him as an advocate for a
pure and upright administration of the
State government, and we would prefer
that Democrats at least will not venture
to press this view on the attention of the
people, as an argument against an open
and square fight for the control of the
State.

An Appeal to Parents:

Parents, do you love your children? Then
preserve their health. Next to the blessing
of life itself, is the enjoyment Of perfect
health. How many are stricken down in
their infancy almost without moments
notice by that insidious disease, Group, sim
ply through the neglect to be provided with
the proper remedyP The tender plant is
nipped and withers ere it blooms. When
the little sufferer has short, difficult, hoarse
breathing, with harsh, metallic cough, like
coughing through brass trumpet it, there is
DIR. Turr's ExpEcroRANT, and the disease
will readily yield to it. Always have it
ready in the house, as this fatal malady re-
quires the promptest treatment. 1t is very
pleasant to the taste, and children take it
readily.

The newspapers are discussing the
merits of organization as referring to the

Of them are lamenting The act of thor

advocates of a timorous, halting policy
in the present campaign that where
straight-oat doctrines prevail the most
thorough organization existss Perhaps
the people are waiting for their leaders
IN certain sections to strike the Keynote,
and the Organization in such localities
will no leager be styled skeleton.

"When thou art old and rich, ST.
Thou hast neither heart, affection, limb or beauty
To make thy riches pleasant"
It is surprising how few books have been
written ON the diseases incident to old age.
We know of no work that would be more
generally read by the medico-legal world. OF
in fact BY all classes, than Treatise on the
medical management of old age" written in
plain style and free from all technicalitiess,
nor do We know of any medicine that SIS
more happily adapted to the alleviating of
the pains and aches of the aged than Dn.
TUrT's Liver PILLS. While they act
promptly they do not wrench the system or
Shock the most enfeebled constitution. In
cases of gout, rheumatism, kidney diseases
torpid bowels, indigestion, loss of appetite,
their healing properties are truly wonderful.
Their effect on the nervous system is prompt,
quieting restIessness, imparting refreshin g
sleep and vigor to the whole system. Ths
old and young will be alike benefited by
the use of this truly estimable medicine.

The Foreign Commissioners then
passed into the main hall, each standing
opposite his division. General Grant ac-
companied by a numerous cortege, then
crossed to the main hall, and passed
through to the Machinery Hall.
The great Corliss engine, 1000 horse
power stood silent and still, as if wanting
| the magic touch that should wake it to
activity and life. The President ad-
vanced, and laying his hand on the pol
ished lever, threw it easily forward. In
an instant there was an answering thrill
| and vibration. The mighty piston moved
slowly forward. Then came the recoil.
Faster and faster the tremendous iron
arm cleaves the air: Where all was quiet
an instant before, all is now activity and
life. Wheels whiz, steam whistles roar,
| cannon thunder, all sorts of machines,
conceivable and inconceivable are set IN
busy motion, and the Great Exhibition
may be fairly said to have begun.
| The crowd then scattered all over the
grounds wherever their inclination led.
I went down to Agricultural Hall, at
tracted by the splendid exhibition in that
department. It is world in itself. l will
not attempt to-day to describe anything
there. Except in few notable instances
all was confusion and chaos. Near the
fountain was a magnificent Oriental struc-
ture erected by the Glen Cove Starch
| Company. This enterprising firm had en-
gagged Beck's celebrated band, which dis
coursed most beautiful music all the day,
in fact it was the only private band admit
ted in any of the buildings.
! trust it will not be no disappointment
to my readers that I have made no at.
tempt to describe single Centennial
building, or in fact to do anything more
in the present letter than to give in as
few words as possible, a passing sketch
of the principal events of the dayAwhile
much is described, can only feel how
much that is important has utterly and
entirely escaped me. Great men have
passed by me whose names and persons
were unknown; frightful accidents have
occurred without even passing mention
Many brilliant societies, which on any
other occasion would have created the
profoundest sensation, have been en-
gulphed and swallowed up in the pres
ence of spirits, greater and mightier than
themselves.
| For each and all of these short com
ings, I will endeavor in the future te
make amends. If my readers will follow
