THE letter of Nathan Appleton, urging
the immediate passage of bill providing
for funding large part of the national debt
at four per cent. should command the prompt
attention of Congress. At this time there
is in the money markets of Europe very
large amount of capital seeking investment.
The general alarm existing over the Eastern
question and the high credit of this country
combine to afford a rare opportunity for
placing these bonds. By this act of funding
the Democratic House can save ten times the
sum of money it purposes To save by pairing
down the appropriation bills and reducing
the salaries of half-paid clerks. But the
House prefers to make political capital.
Months ago the Senate passed a bill by
which saving of one-fourth was provided
for in the interest now paid on two hundred
millions of six per cent. bonds. This bill
the house refuses to touch, and lets pass
without improving the best opportunity for
years to negotiate bonds bearing low rate of
interest.

cept, as write, can see from nv window
the Confederate flag floating from the County
building, with Tllden's and Hendricks
names inscribed on it. The resolution of
1854, the Confederate flag, and Tilden and
Hendricks make strong trio in this part OF
Dixie"
In 1866 the Senate adopted an amendment
to the sundry civil service appropriation bill,
providing that the salary of Congressman
should be advanced from $4,000 to 5000.
Although there was no criticism upon that
increase, still when 1t came to the House
Governor Hayes voted against it and it was
rejected. The bill went 10 conference COM
mittee, which retained the increase. Again
Goyernor Hayes voted against it., again it
went to the conference committee, again it
was reported, and again Governor Hayes
voted against it though it was carried over
his head. And while he thus steadily Cd.
posed it, among those who voted for it was
Mr.. Hendricks, the Democratic candidate for
Vice-President. who was then a Senator

THE Mississippi correspondent of the
Hartford Cowant gives frightful picture of
affairs in that State. Mississippi has un-
doubtedly Republican majority of $4,000,
and yet it was carried by the Democrats at
the last election by unblushing fraud and in
timidation. Any attempts on the part of
black men to-day to exercise their rights as
citizens would result in wholesale murder.
The well-armed minority retain the power, the
weaker class having neither the organization
nor the courage to enforce their rights. The
same state Of feeling which before the war
made the South a dangerous place for an
abolititionist, now exists towards all white
Republicans, and at the recent Democratic
ratification meeting at Jackson, one of the
prominent white leaders strongly urged that
all white Republicans should be driven from
the State, and volunteered TO lead In such a
movement.

TERMS $500 PER ANNUM, IN ADVANCE.

PRESIDENT GRANT has addressed letter to
eX-Secretary Bristow, who is now at Sarato-
ga Springs with his family, in relation to the
matter of the latter's position before the
whiskey ring investigating committee Of the
House. 1t will be remembered that when
Secretary Bristow was before the committee
the other day he declined to answer certain
questions about Cabinet transactions, on the
ground that all Cabinet consultations were
matters of the highest confidence with which
the House had nothing to do, and he shell
tered himself under this privilege. President
Grants letter releases Mr.. Bristow from all
obligations of this character, either expressed
or implied, and advises him 10 Withhold no in
formation from the committee under his
privilege. The President writes that he has
no fears that any thing Mr.. Bristow can say
will be of injury to him or to the public, but
on the contrary, many misunderstanding
and misconceptions of the true condition of
things may be corrected.

THE GREAT REPUTATION
Which VEGETINE has attained in all parts OF til
country as a
Great and Good Medicine,

and the large number of testimonials which are
stantly being received from persons who have been
cured by its use, conclusive proof of its great
value. 1t is recommended by physicians and apoth-
ecaries. As Blood-PuTifer and Health -Restorer,
it has no equal.
VEGETINE is not prepared for a fancy drink made
from poor liquors, which debltates the system and
tends to destroy health instead of restoring it.
Are not the many testimonials given for the differ
ent complaints satisfactory to any reasonable persons
suffering from disease that they can be cured? Read
the different testimonials given, and no one can
doubt. In many of these cases the persons say that
their pain and suffering can not be expressed, in
of Scrofula, where apparently the whole body
was one mass of corruption. If VEGETINE will re-
lieve pain, cleanse, purify and such Diseases

ferent physicians many remedies suffering for years.
is it not conclusive proof if you sufferer, you
can be cured? Why is this medicine performing
such great cures? 1t works in the blood in the cir
culating fluid 1t can be truly called the Great
Blood Purifier. The great source of disease origin
ates in the blood; and medicine that does not act
directly upon it, to purify and renovate has any just
claim upon public attention. When the blood be-

weather climate, want of exercise, irregular Diet

stomach, regulate the bowels and mpart tone of
vigor to the whole body. The conviction is, in the
public mind as well in the medical profession that
the remedies supplied by the Vegetable Kingdom

than mineral medicines. VEGETINE is composed of
ROOTS barks, and herbs 1t is pleasant to take and
is perfectly safe to give infant. Do you need it?

The Liberals.

Mr.. Tilden's nomination was urged and
made $50 far as it was not purchased) upon
the theory that he could carry large por-
ton Of the independent and dissatisfied
voters of the country, generally known as
Liberal Republicans, it being admitted by
those who advocated his nomination that no
Democrat could be elected anless he could
secure large part of that vote. Such ad-
vocates were confident that Mr.. Tiiden's re-
form pretensions would win this element
The claim is not sustained by the result.
Instead of multitudes of Independents and
Liberal Republicans focking to the standard
of Mr.. Tilden, scarcely an important inde-
pendent has declared for the Democratic NOM
inee. On the contrary, the independents
are declaring themselves heartily for Hayes
and Wheeler. Every member of the COM
mittee which called the New York confer
ence of independent men have already pro-
nounced for the Republican nominees. Four
years ago Democratic papers were filed with
the names of Republicans who were joining
the Greeley movement. This year Republican
papers are announcing the return of the same
among whom are such men as Carl Schurz
Murat Halstead, ex Governor Fen ton, Judge
Davis of the United States Supreme Court.
Four years ago the New York Tribune, the
Chicago Tribune, the Cincinnati Commercial
and the Springfield Republican opposed the
Republican candidates. This year all of the
above journals have declared for Hayes and
Wheeler except the latter and are laboring
with their well known ability foc the success
of the ticket. Democratic journals see that
this is the case and the New York World in
noticing the movement of the Independents
toward the Republican party says: ''As for
the Liberal Republican, he aciu probably 90
from among as because he is not Of as, and
IN nine cases out of ten the sooner he goes
and the further from as the BETTER"
AS for Judge Davis he wrote letter de-
clining to be candidate in the Democratic
National Convention soon after the nomina-
ton of Gov. Hayes. Of course he could not
support Gov. Tiden. As judge he had
an opportunity to know something Of Mr..
Tilden's operations as railroad man. He
tried the case of the stockholders swindled by
one of Mr.. Tilden's railroad consultations,
(the Galena and Chicago Union Railroad
Company which he Judge Davis) declared
to be ga pretended consolidation which was
conSunsn,ated by trickery and fraud"
In the West number of influential DEM
ocrats have declared against Gov Tilden's
candidacy and reliable papers declare that i'll
New York there are many Democrats who
unhesitatiagly oppose the st. Louis nomina-
ton.
Money is the chief reliance of Gov. Tilden's
supporters for success. 1t has secured him
the nomination but his champions will learn
to their sorrow that the votes of intelligent
men cannot be secured by paid newspaper
puffs Or purchased like cattle in the shambes
as were those of the political Nasbys who
represented many of the states in the st.
Louis Convention.

THE only hope of Democratic success next
fall is in united Democratic South. The
Democrats expect and intend TO carry every
ex-rebel State, South Carolina perhaps ex-
cepted. Their only fear is that the strong
arm of the federal government may interfere
to secure fair election. Take away the
troops and they care nothing for Republican
majorities. They have promised the South
government aid to the Texas Pacific rail-
way, government assistance for the construc-
ton and maintenance of levees along the
Mississippi, and the repayment of the cotton
tax, and in return they count on its electoral
votes. If Tilden should be elected, it would
be by the South, and he will have a great
debt of gratitude to discharge.
