..I.ora, won. They be Surprised, ,,

The following story was told by General
SIocum in a speech to the Independent
Democratic Committee in Brooklyn, \. j.,
Just after the late election:
"A few months after l was sent West,
during the late war, met one of the most
accomplished generals who have ever worn
the American uniform-I refer to General
Mcpherson. We had been at West Point
together. and this was our first meeting
since We had left the academy. In talking
of the scenes through which We had passed
since We parted at West Point our cOnver-
Sation turned upon the battle of PittSbUrg
Landing, where Mcpherson acted as Chief
OF Staff to General Grant. Mcpherson de-
scribed to me4he disasters of the first day
Of that great battle-of how he had been
compelled from hour to hour during the
whole dav to be the bearer of bad news to
his chief. 1t was a succession of reverSes
from morning to night When night came
on and it was becoming too dark for the en-
envy to continue the fight, Mcpherson rode
up to Grant, who coolly said TO him, We'll,
Mac. how do things look? Bad enough,
General. We have lost, / think, about
One-half our artillery and at least third
of the infantry. Our line is broken in sew
eral places, and we are pushed back, as you
see. pretty near the bank Of the r1ver.
Grant made no reply, and Mcpherson be-
coming little impatient, finally said 10
him, We'll, General, under these circum-
stances, what do you intend to do? Do!
Why, | shall reform the lines and attack
them at daybreak. Lord! won't they be
surprised Grant executed his plan to the
letter. and before 8 o'clock next morning
the enemy was flying in every direction.
Whatever may be a mans occupation, if he
meet y ith disaster. l know of no better
motto for him to adopt than the words OF
General Grant: Reform the lines and at
tack them at daybreak.

The New York Herald is not Repubh-
can paper-has little, if any, sympathy with
the party. 1t gave its support to Tilden
during the campaign, although it regarded
Gov. Hayes with admiration. After elec-
tion it claimed victory for Mr.. Tilden,
but, seeing the crisis into which the coun-
try is being drawn by the Democratic
leaders, it calls halt. The following sol
id, substantial talk is condensed from re-
cent leading article in that paper:
IF President Grant has violated the Con-
stitution, as some of the Democratic lead
ers so confidently charge, we say, let him
| be impeached.
eff, in sending the troops TO New Or
leans, to Columbia, to Tallahassee, he has
broken law or a Constitutional provision
let him be impeached.
''If, in what he has said and done with
in few days past, he has attacked the lib
critics of the country, or has broken his Off
cial oath, or set at naught any Constitution
al safeguard whatever, we repeat, let him
| be impeached.
eff, in his order to General Sherman the
other day, he broke law Of the land. let
him be impeached.
eff, in his order to Gen. Ruger to see to
it that the lawful custodians of the ballots
should be protected in Florida in a peace
full count, the President violated the Con-
stitution, let him be impeaehed.
eff, in his order to Gen. Hunt in South
| Carolina, to the same effect, he has broken
his oath to maintain and defend the Con-
stitutiOn, let him be impeached.
''lf it is asserted or insinuated that he
has given or sent to these officers any secret
instructions violating the Constitution, let
him be impeached, and let these officers,
who are men of honor, soldiers of high re-
pute, who have offered their lives for their
country-let them be summoned to the bar
Of ,i the House to bear witness. They will
''This is not time to be playing with
fire; but, if the Democratic leaders mean to
do so, we warn them that they will get
their own fingers burned. 1t will not do
for the Democratic politicians to let it be
understood that they do not mean to abide
by anY Just or lawful verdict which the epeO-
pie may give. 1t will not do for them now,
when nothing is decided, to hint or threat
en- about what they will do if the issue goes
against them. The people of this coun-
try have not forgotten 1851, and they do
not mean to be dragged into another war
by a set of men the burden of whose blum
ders and wicked ambitions we are still bear
ing. 1t is good time for child's play, and
it is very bad time for incendiary asser-
tions and insinuations. If the Democratic
leaders are statesmen, If they are anything
higher then unscrupulous .demagogues,
they must see that this is time conspicu-
Ously for moderate speech, for mutual con-
ciliation, conservative language aud con-
duct, for instructing their people in the
ways of peace and honor"

zens, of all classes, establishes the fact, that
CHERRY PICTORIAL will and does relieve and
cure the affecting disorders of the Throat and
Lungs beyond any other medicine. The most
dangerous affections Of the Pulmonary Organs
Weld to its power; and cases of Consumption,
cured by this preparation, are publicly known,
so remarkable as hardly to be believed, were
they not proven beyond dispute. As a remedy,
it is adequate on which the public may rely
for full protection. By curing Coughs, the
forerunners of more serious disease, it saves un-
numbered lives, and an amount of suffering not
to be computed. 1t challenges trial, and con-
vinces the most sceptical Every family should
keep it on hand as protection against the early
and unperceived attack of Pulmonary Aztec
tions, which are easily met at first, but which
become incurable, and too often fatal, if neg
lected. Tender lungs need this defence; and It
is unwise TO be without It. As q safeguard to
children, amid the distressing diseases which
beset the Throat and Chest of childhood, CHERRY
PICTORIAL is Invaluable; for, by Its timely use,
multitudes are rescued from premature graves,
and saved to the love and affection centred on
them. It acts speedily and surely against ordi-
nary colds, securing sound and health-restoring
sleep, No one viii suffer troublesome InflU-
enZa and painful Bronchitis, when they know
how easily they can be cured.
Originally the product Of long, laborious, and
successful chemical investigation, no cost or toll
is spared in making every bottle in the utmost
possible perfection. It may be confidently relied
upon rs possessing all the virtues it has ever
exhibited, and capable of producing cures as
memorable as the greatest it has ever effected

To all those of our Democratic friends
who thought the Post-ofice within their
grasp and whose famished condition sug-
gests the figure OF the hungry dogs looking
through the fence into the bone yard, with
the drool of expectation dripping from
their elongated lips, we would recommend
for their consolation, a calm reading OF the
following chapter from their disappointed
fellow patriot and sufferer, Nasby:-
Nasby is bowed down with despair. He
writes TO The Toledo Blade that the hearts
of the citizens of the Corners are nearly
broken. adding: ''The iron hez entered all
our soles. A nigger will be cOntlnnered IN
the post-offis, and l, wlch am entitled to
the place, will hev to live in a desultory
manner all the remainder NV my LIE. L

THAT DECISION.

The Enterprise, which arrived last
night. contains the decisiol Of the SUI
preme Court with reference TO the
criminal jury law. The opinion Is by
Chief Justice Hawley. Judge Earl on
curing. Jndge Beatty also adds a
paragraph on his own hook, which, to
OUR mind, is contradictory and mean
iugless. He thinks two of the sections
of the statute should stand, though lie
admits that "the various provisions
are so.inseparably dependent that none
can stand alone;' and then he goes on
10 say that with the ~"exoeption OF sec-
ti0ns eight and nins, the law must be
wholly. set aside" winding mp with
the very important All nouncemsnt thai
upon tue .other points discussed he
expresses no opinion" Considering
that he was the author Of the law,
Judge Beatty would have appeared Ia
better y advantage had he withheid this
tumble of words, and better still, il he
had declined ~altogether to participate
in the decision. 1t strikes Us that he
occupies = most Inconsistent attitude
ia connectiol with this whole matter.
The effect ofthe decision ofthe majority
Of tho court seems to be the restoration
