Progress.

Progress.
MORRISON, of Illinois. is Chairman
of the Ways and Means Committee
in the National House of Represen
tatives, and ee c6fcio leader of the
Democratic party in that body. and
hence his action becomes the action
OF the Democratic majority. Well.
this important committee, the leading
committee in that body, is entitled to
Clerk. And this Clerk, who is he?
He is an intense Democrat from the
South. who, in 1872, seven years after
the close of the war. when such as he
and his sympathizers from the North
were incessantly asking that the war
and all things connected with it
might be forgotten and buried out of
sight, named his child j. WILKES
BooTH, in honor Of the assassin of
President LINCOLN. This is the man
that has been honored by our Demo
cratic Congress with this important
position. As the Cincinnati Gazette
we'll remarks, he ''does not deserve a
place in respectable society"
These things are becoming too com
mon in our Democratic Congress,
though no more than what might
have been expected. Continue to in
vest the Democratic party with power,
and soon treason will be made hon
orable; Confederates will be given the
front seats, to the displacement of
Union men. That is the tendency
of Democracy in this the Centennial
year of American liberty.

IT is beginning to be made mani
fest that the government has been too
fast in the dispensation of its favors
of amnesty. The men who have
been relieved of their disabilities, in
stead of accepting of the results of
the war, are coming back into the
councils of the Nation with hearts as
full of the doctrine of State SOW
ereIgnty and secession as filled them
when they attempted the practical
development Of their theory by war.
Men who believe in the doctrine of a
Confederation of States, instead of a
Nation; of government without au-
thorlt, to preserve its existence;
have no business in Congress-. 1t is
the doctrine that has already drench-
ed the land in blood, and it was sup
posed that that blood had wiped out
and forever buried the fatal heresy.
But it seems not. J. Randolph
Tucker, of Va, is one of the men
who is joined to this idol of State
rights. He made speech in Con
gress, last week. affirming the doctrine
in bold and defiant language, and to
give point to the whole he went
into an eulogy of Robert f. Lee,
him as zone of the
noblest of Americans who ever trod
this soil" sit is sweet" says the
Cincinnati Commercial, ''to see old
putting the strong doctrine
into the Democratic party
A green spot in a desert of sand
is an oasis of delight. 1t is with
pleasure, therefore, that we can re-
cord the fact, that Judge Holman,
of Indiana, democrat as he is, made
a pointed reply to fuckers State
rights speech, severely criticizing his
statement that the United States was
not Nation. The Judge claimed |
that if there had been anything set
lied beyond recall in the progress of
Jhe century it wasthat the sovereign
~ of the people, not the sovereignty
IF the States, was the solid founda-
ton on which the political powers of
the government rested.

Strikes at the root of disease by purify
ing the blood, restoring the liver and
kidneys to healthy action, invigOrating
the nervous system.
VEGETlNE
is not vile, nauseOus compound, which
simply purges the bowels, but a safe,
pleasant remedy which is sure to purify
the blood and thereby restore the health
VEGETINE
Is now prescribed in eases of ScrOfula
and other diseases of the blood, by MANY
of the best physicians, owing to its great
success in curing all diseases of this ma
ture.
VEGETINE
Does not deceive invalds into false
hopes by purging and creating Il iicti-
tious appetite, but assists nature in clear
ing and purifying the whole system,
leading the patient gradually to perfect
health.
VEGETINE
Was looked upon as an experiment for
some time by some of our best physi-
clans, but those most increlulOus in re-
gard to its merit are now its most ardent
friends and supporters.
VEGETINE
Instead of being a puffed-up medicine
has worked its way up to its present as
tOniShing success by actlral merit in eur
gall diseases of the blood, of whatev-
er nature.
VEGETINE
Says Boston physician, ''has no equal
as blood purifier. Hearing of its
many wonderful cures, after all other
remedies had failed, visited the labora-
tory and convinced myself of its genu-
inc merit. 1t is prepared from barks,
roots and herbs. each of which is high
ly effective, and they are compounded in
such manner as to produce astonish-
ing results"

made three years cruise as master
of the ship Pioneer. Upon his re-

salt water and removed to Cheyboy-

The Ohio House of Representa-
tives was the scene Of a political de-
bate one day last week. The occa
sion was the election of an additional
Clerk. The Republican candidate
was an intelligent colored soldier.
This gave great offense to the Demo
Gratis, and they went for the "darkie"
in old time style. They were met
by Messrs. Rowland, STONE and
others, who sent rified shots into their
ranks, in the production of their
record during the war, when every
thing looking to the saving Of the
Nation was declared unconstitu-
tional. Result, a Union victory. The
colored troops fought. well and the
man was elected.
