NEW ORLEANs CLEARINGHOUSE,

The Money market has shown no material
change during the past week. The situation con-
tinues to be- characterized by an accumulation OF
funds, and only limited demand fer their en-
ployment. The approach Of the season for the
commencement Of the spring trade does not ap-
pear to have impaired any degree OF animation
to the market. The discount demand both at
the banks and outside is light, and Money is
quoted at cheaper rates than have been known in
this market for considerable period, With the
prospect of large surplus of unemployed funds,
the attention Of capitalists appears to have been
directed to Stocks and Securities, in which the
movement has been considerable during the
week, and the inquiry continues good.
The Foreign and Dom stic Exchange markets
have been moderately active. Sterling and francs
we're quoted stronger to-day, and New York sight
was il good demand aud sitter at the ruling
rates, City Bonds have been fairly active, with
an upward tendency during the week, and are
quoted at an advance for nearly all issues. The
excitement in New State Consols appears to
have subsidized. Since last week they have shown
bnt little ANNA ton, and the official quotations
Of the Stock Exchange show decline OF about
u cent, as compared with last week.

WON'T STAND IT.
The Chicago Tribune Lectures the
Louisiana Returning Board.
The Votes Legally Cast Must be Count
ed and No Bigcd Nonsense.

The Chicago Tribune (Rep.) closes an
editorial in its Monday issue as follows:
We do not believe. therefore, tnat the
moral sense of the American people will
consent TO or tolerate that the election of
president of the United States shall be de
termined and decided By throwing ont
the UOteS of several thousands of Ieqal
UOterS, legally polled, in any state OF the
Union. We take it, therefore, that the
votes actually polled in these five bull
dozed" parishes of Louisiana will be count.
ed, no matter what may be the result pro
duced upon the election by so dong.
III the facts be as stated, and we have
tried to collate them fairly from the state
ments Of both sides, the Republicans of
Louisiana and Of the country have to bear
the consequences of the panic which seems
TO have so stricken the colored voters In
these five districts. We look uDon it as
calamity, because we know of no legal
remedy. There is no precedent knO1un to
any election Ldt1 that tCe erer heard of
JDhere the UOteS Of persons not UOtIng, and
not offering to cote, can be counted no mat
ter how strong may be the presumption
that if such votes had been polled they
would have changed the result. In
1874 the Democrats elected at least fifty
members of the congressin Republican dis
tricts because Republicans stayed away and
did not vote. For the same reason the Demo-
Gratis elected the governors ofseveral states
and majority Of the legislature in several
states in 1874. No such thing as offset
ting the vote actually polled by that not
polled has ever been recognized at any
election ia any state in this country. Even
in the desperate conflict in Louisiana four
years ago both parties claimed the cleo
ton, but both parties assumed the vote
counted to have been polled.
1t is claimed by the Democrats that
their party will have q majority of the
whole vote of the state, over and above
their vote in these parishes; but, while
this ought to settle the matter, it may not
do So il the counting of the non polled
gote be insisted upon by the other side
If, however, the Democrats do not have
majority except by counting the votes in
these five parishes, and the result in the
state depend on their being counted or
not counted, then the issue will be direct
r one, and one upon which the country will
PROMPTLY reach Judgment. and NO
CANVASSING BOARD WILL DARE
ATTEMPT TO PUT THE JUDO
MENT OF THE NATION AT Def.
ANCE; and the American people will
never engage in a cival war to uphold the
counting Of votes never cast or offered to
be cast, or TO REJECT LAWFUL VOTES LEG.

A,Rspublioan view of the Result.


The New York Times, now that mis-
representation of facts can no longer man
utacture Republican votes, allows itself to
talk in this sensible style:
"The country has neither accepted The
Republican candidates with pronounced
enthusiasm nor rejected the Democrats
with decision. After making all deductions
on the score of intimidation and sectional
feeling, after eliminating, in fact, the ac-
ton Of the south from the moral aspect of
the contest altogether, we have still to
face the fact Of very decided change of
sentiment among northern voters in regard
to the degree of trust to be accorded to
the promises of the Republican party
The lesson of the election will be thrown
away if it be not accepted, in part at least
as rebuke to the selfshness and the
the greed which have been allowed to dis
grace the Republican name; and if it be
not used as means Of purifying the party
from influences which have furnished its
record and blurred in public memory the
impression of Its great services and noble
aspirations. The party has career before
it greater than even the one which lies
behind it. But the camp-followers who
have stuck to the Republican party for
the sake of the spoils they could secure
must be got rid of. The leaders who have
abused the confidence of the rarity by sub
shutting the pursuit of selfishsam biCion
for devotion to its principles must be de
posed"
This, says the St. Louis Republicans,
embodies the sum and essence of the Dem
ocratic argument. That argument did not
insist that the Republican party, as a
whole, was welded to Grantism and de-
sirous of perpetuating the organized corrup-
ton of the last eight years 1t did insist,
however, that the management of the party
was so completely in the hands of bad men
that reform within the party" was an inn
possibility, and that nothing but an entire
change Of administration could bring about
the imperatively demanded reformation.
Suppose the Cincinnati convention had
nominated Bristow on an unequivocal,
straight-out reform platform-would he
not have been elected2 Most assuredly.
1t was Republican votes that beat Hayes
and elected Tilden, or, as the Times mild
ly puts it, "a very decided change OF
sentiment among northern voters in re
gard to the degree of trust to be accorded
to the promises of the Republican party.
But when the New York Times adds ''tha
the camp-followers who have stuck to tho
Republican party for the sake of the spoil,
they could secure must be got rid of, eve
must remind it that these same camp
followers" are now endeavoriug to sci
aside the peoples choice, for the express
purpose of prolongiDg their hold of ''thC
spoils" Examine the character of thu
men who are backing up Kellogg Il Co. il
the effort to elect Hayes, and then form
an opinion of the motives which lie at the
bottom Of the contemplated fraud.
If the New York Times is sincere in ad
vising the deposition of 'the leaders whC
have abused the confidence of the party by
substituting the pursuit of a selfish am
bition for devotion to its principles" WIN
does it not favor a fair count of thu
Louisiana vote?

MEDICAL
Symptoms of a Diseased Liver.

Symptoms of a Diseased Liver.
DAIN in the right side, under theedge
of the ribs, increases on pressure
sometimes the pain is in the leftside; the
patient is rarely able to lie on the lett
side; sometimes the pain is felt under
the shoulder blade, and it frequently ex-
tends to the top of the shoulder, and IS
sometimes mistaken for rheumatism IN
the arm. The stomach is affected with
loss of appetite and sickness; the bowels
in general are costive, sometimes alterna-
tive with lax +; the head is troubled with
pain, accompanied with dull, heavy
sensation in the back part. There IS
generally aconsiderable loss ofmemory,
accompanied with a painful sensation OF
having left undone something which
ought 10 have been done. A slight, dry
cough is sometimes an attendant. The
patient complains of WEAKNESS and de-
bnity; he is easily startled, his feet are
cold or burning, and he complains of a
pricllly sensation of the skin; his spirits
are low; and although he is satisfied that
exercise would be beneficial to him, yet
he can scarcely summon up fortitude
enough to try it. In fact, he distrusts
every remedy. Several of the above
symptoms attend the disease, but cases
have occurred where few ofthem existed,
yet examination ofthe body, after death,
has shown the LIVER to have been eX
tensively deranged.
AGUE AND FEVER.
DR.. c. McLANE'S LIVER PILLS, IN
CASES OF AGUE AND FEVER, when taken
with Quinine, are productive of the
most happy results. No better cathartic
can be used, preparatory to, or after
taking Quinine. We would advise all
who are afflicted with this disease to
give them A FAIR TRIAL.
For all Bilious arrangements, and as
simple purgative, they are unequaled.
