ILLINOIS REPUBLICANS.

SPRINGFIELD May l6, 1876.
The political caldron in Illinois is boiling hot
and getting hotter in view of the State Conven-
ton, to be held May q. Public opinion in most
parts of the State has already expressed itself up
on the Presidential question, and the outlook to-
day shows that Blaine will be the first choice of
threef ourths Of the delegates. An undcrcurreLt
for Brlstow is being engineered by the Chicago
Tribune and the various revenue ard Treasury
officials, which has a small strength among So
called independent republicans. The rank and
file everywhere with most Of the politicians are
strongly for Blaine; some of the counties have
been Instructed for Blame, but generally the feel
Ing is SO marked that their seems no cause for in
structions Blistow will be repudiated as can
didate, but sustained for his official acton. Conk-
ling has no particular following. Morton has
many friends, but they are neither so strong nor
so confident as tue Blaine men, who insist that
the personal aud mental vigor Of their candidate
will be indispensable in inspiring the masses with
confidence Of success -Corresp0ndence Of tie

BENNINGTON, Hunterdon Co., N. J. June 26, 1874.
DIR. r. V. Pierce, Buffalo, N. Y: Dear Sir
1t is with happy heart that pen these lines to
acknowledge that } GU and your Golden Medical
Discovery are blessings to the World. These
have almost brought me out of the grave. Three
months ago was broken out with large ulcers
and sores on my body, limbs and face. pro-
cured your Golden Medical Discovery and Purga-
tive Pellets, and have taken six bottles, and to-
day am in good health all those ugly ulcers hay
ing healed and left my skin in q natural, healthy
condition. | thought at one time could not be
cured. Although l can but poorly express my
gratitude to you, yet these Is drop of joy in
every word write Gods blessing rest you
and your wonderful medicines is the humble
prayer Of Yours truly
JAMES o. BELLS.
When a medicine will promptly cure such terri
bic eating ulcers and free the blood OF the viru-
lent poison causing them, who can longer doubt
its wonderful virtues DIR. Pierce, however, does
not wish to place his Golden Medical Discovery in
the catalogue of quack patent nostrums by recon-
mending it to cure every disease, nor does he so
recommend it; but what he does claim is this.
that there is but one form of blood disease that it
will not cure, and that disease is He does
not recommend his Discovery for that disease, yet
he knows it 10 be the most searching blood cleanser
vet discovered, and that it will free the blood and
system of all other known blood poisons, be they
animal, vegetable or mineral. The Golden Dis
covery is warranted by him to cure the worst forms
of Skin Diseases, all forms of blotches, pimpes
and eruptions, also all glandular swellings. and
the worst form Of scrofulous and liberated sores
Of neck legs other parts, and all scrufulous dis
eases Of the bones as white swellings, fever sores,

The county elections in New Jersey fol-
low, as a general thing, the same rule as
those of New York. At the elections last
fall, when members of the legislature and
sheriffs were to be elected, the result was

cratic gains of the year preceding. AT the
recent elections the same result is seen,
A majority of the counties elect republi-
cans.

In Jersey City, the republican mayor was

MUNICIPAL AND TOWN ELECTIONS.
The drift wood floating on stream in
dictate often the force of the current.
Straws, says the old adage, shows which
wav the wind blows. With all due re-
specific the local self pride which may be
affected by being looked at as DRIFT wood
or straws, 1t is worth while TO note some
what in consecutive order the various local
elections throughout the country during
the past three months.
From the beginning of the current year
(1S76) the great majority of the munich
pal elections have, as usual in the Pfesl-
dental period, been decided on partisan
proclivities and interests. 1t is not, as
rule, good year for Independents, and
the rule holds more than good at the pres
ent time.
The New England town elections all
tended toward one pont-an increased re-
publican activity. In New Hampshire es-
pecially their results clearly indicated the
latter triumph had in the State. In Con-
necticut, too, they gave reasonable hope
of a similar result. The disappointment
seems due to apathy and want of capacity
in conducting the campaign. The Maine
elections were very significant, the city of
Portland, among others, being carried by
the republicans the first time for several
years.
In the State of New York elections for
supervisors are always closely watched by
the politicians "who "make States and
forecast probabilities. Especially is this
the case in the Presidential year. The re-
publican party made large gains, carrying
nearly one hundred more supervisors than
it did in 1875.
Along the whole line of cities and States,
especially those regarded as doubtful. the
republicans made clear and positive gains.
In Michigan, for instance, where last
spring the reaction almost reached to the
'bed-rocks," the political complexion Of
the supervisors elected is more than salts
factory. The results given in forty-six
counties of that State as compared with
last year will prove this. Counting the
liberals and Independents as democrats,
and in the forty six counties alluded to the
republicans gained fifty-sx supervisors
The totals were as follows:
Total No. of Supervisors.

The stupidity of tho old colonial who
went to the mill with his bag Of wheat
on one side of his horse and large
stone Oh the other, to balance it, is only
equaled by the prevalent absurdity
known as the wheelbaTow. It is bal.
anced so as to bring the load on the
shoulders, but nevertheless, the whole
civilized world submit as patiently 10 it
as though it was necessary tocthache.
It Is a good deal worse than tax on
tea. The Chinese have out Yankeed
the Yankees on wheelbarrows. There
is but one wheel, like Leonards, but it
is large and is placed in the center of
the load, so that gravity furnishes It's
own shoulders. In Shangbae thousands
of these are to be seen on the streets
sort of wheelbarrow express wagons or
hacks, the usual load being two persons
resting one arm on frame that covers
the wheel, and sitting on platform on
either side. A stalwart coolie will
take four men on his barrow without
unusual effort. 1t is enough TO make a
Yankee pull his chin whiskers half out
to see a Chinese farmer rolling along q
live fat hog to the slaughter-house,
without the everlasting draw on his
patience, ingenuity and classic yooab

DR.. Newhall, the former Pre- sident of
Delaware College, and a personal
friend of Bishop Haven, was very sick.
The disease filed the poor mans mind
with all sorts of vagaries. For many
days he thought himself immortal and
refused to eat anything whatever. The
Bishop happened to visit him during
this time, and tried to prevail upon his
sick friend to take some nourishment.
No; do net want anything, said be, l
am immortal. l am 10 heaven, This is
heaven. Then pausing for moment
and locking OF bis visitor with
troubled air, he said: But, Haven,
how in tie world did you get here ?
You are the last person ! expected to
see in this place.
