cast away forever.
1t is claimed by the democracy that the
House deserves great credit for economy
in the reduction of the appropriations.
This claim is without foundation, 1t has,
as has been well said, postponed expen-
dtures, not reduced them. What it has
reduced the appropriations this year will
have to be added to future appropriations.
Public buildings and other public works
begun will be flashed, and refusing to
appropriate for them this year only puts
little farther off, at perhaps larger ex-
pense, the needed expenditure to COM
plete them. Neglect to furnish the means
to take care of public property is not
economy, but worse than extravaganza.
Cutting down the number of consu|s
abroad, and reducing the pay OF those we
have, is a kind of economy that those who
are engaged in foreign commerce regard
as a fatal policy to pursue. We need
more representatives abroad instead OF
less. Yet the House wants the name OF
cutting down appropriations and therefore
this branch of service must suffer. And
so through nearly all the pairing process
which the House has put in operation,
we see that it is not economy but political
capital that has been the ruling motive.
The House has not been controlled in
reducing appropriations by considerations
of what the highest public good demands,
but by the belief that the reduction, even
though it must be made up in the future
and actually is damage in the present,
will be regarded as a saving, and so be of
advantage to the democratic party.
But this hope is fallacious. The cheat
will be discovered by the public Mr..
Tiden will reap no benefit from the fraud.
1t will afford no relief to the House from
the universal condemnation which meets
it as it adiourns

Adjournment of Congress.

The adjournment OF Congress must be
great relief to the democrats. The
House has been heavy load for them to
carry. 1t has sunk the party beyond the
hope Of redemption. The session opened
with the democrats exutant, strong in the
hope of national victory in 1876. 1t has
closed with deep disappointment on their
part at the record which it has made. and
if they have any hope of electing Tilden
and Hendricks it is not because of
assistance they have received from the
House.
At the very beginning of the session it
was evident that the ex-Confederates con-
trolled the democratic side. The organic
alton of the House was made to bend to
their interests. Nearly all the chairman
ships Of committees were given to the South
and West. while New England was pushed
far into the background. Union soldiers
were thrust out Of the subordinate posi-
tons. and rebel soldiers were appointed
to fill the same. Washington was thronged
in the early days of the session with a
crowd of ex-rebels. hungry and thirsty for
Office, and confident that the time was at
hand when the leaders of the Confederacy
would have full command OF the govern
ment which they did their best to destroy.
Rebel claims for property destroyed in the
war. and other alleged damages, made
their appearance in alarming numbers.
Various schemes to strip the treasury of
large amounts for the benefit of the South
were brought forward. The memorable
debate over the amnesty bill introduced
by Mr.. Randall, and opposed by Mr..
Blaine in his great speech against remov-
ing the disabilities of Jefferson Davis.
caused the first serious check the ex-Con.
federates met. Through that the people
were enabled to see the real character of
the party that controlled the House, and
from that time the feeling began to take
root and grow, that the destinies of this
nation could not be trusted in the hands
of men so recently its deadly enemies,
and actuated at the present time by the
spirit manifested in Ben Hills speech and
the utterances of other leaders of the
democratic party.
A large part of The session has been de-
voted to Investigations. These have been
conducted for the purest partizan pur-
poses. The streets, kennels, prisons, jais
and even warehouses have been searched
for evidence to implicate prominent re-
publicans in wrong-doing, and the viesl
ISLANDERS, retailed through personal spite
malignant hatred, or disappointed ambi.
ton, have been sluiced through the chan.
nels of such investigations in order to
bring the republican party into disgrace.
This work has been as costly as base, and
now that the session has closed, after all
the expenditure occasioned by these in.
vestigations, no one against whom accu.
sations has been made has been con.
victed. All that has been accomplished
is the raking together of vague scandals

DEAR SIR:-It gives me very great pleasure to
inform you Of the benefit received from the use of
Peruvian Syrup in my own family. My wife, for
the past ten years. has been In feeble health-very
much debilitated generally. Last spring she con
cluded to try a bottle Of Peruvian Syrup, and
was so well pleased with the result continued its
use until three or four bottles had been used, and
she is now better health than at any time for ten
years, and has increased in weight from ITO
pounds to l26 IL. l have employed physicians,
and used great variety of patent medicines, to
the extent of hundreds of dollars, and know she
received more benefit from the Peruvian Syrup
than all the rest together.
My sales on the syrup are very large and con-
stantly increasing, and do not hesitate to recon-
mend and even warrant it to give satisfaction. If
you desire, you at liberty to use this commune
cation as you fit, as it gives me pleasure to re-
commend so good an article to suffering hunani-
ty. Yours truly, ITHIEL PEAsE.
