The huge, drastic, gripping, sickcning
pills, constructed of crude, course and
bulky ingredients, are fast being super
seded by DR.. Pierce's Pleasant Purga-
tive Pellets, or Sugar Coated, Concen-
trated Root and Herbal Juice, Anti Bill
ious Granules-the Little Giant Ca
thartic or Multum in Pdrpo Physic. Mod
ern Chemical Science enables DR.. Pierce
to extract from the juices of the most
valuable roots and herbs their active
medicinal principles, which, when work
ed into little Pellets or Granules scarcely
larger than mustard seed, renders each
little Pellet as active and powerful as q
large pill, while they are much more
palatable and pleasant in effect.
DIR. IRA A. THAYER, of Baconsburg,
Ohio, writes: 81 regard your Pellets as
the best remedy for the conditions for
which you prescribe them of anything
l have ever used, so mild and certain in
effect, and leaving the bowels in an ex-
cellent condition. 1t seems to me they
must take the place of all other cathar-
tic pills and medicines"
LYON y MACoMBER, druggists, Vermil.
lion, ID. T., says; We think they are go.
ing to sell like hot cakes as soon as peo-
pie get acquainted with them and will
spoil the pill trade, as those who have
used them like them much better thar

WOnsen IN Washington.

The Treasury and other Departments
at Washington are filled with younr
women, many of whom have obtained
their lucrative situations through the
influence of members of COngress-Kc-
publicans of course, as the Democratic
members have not been allowed any such
influence for fifteen or sixteen years.
These women have been used frequently
to promote such crimes as Belknap's.
In what other ways they are used no one
states. But there are insinuations fire.
quently thrown out, and the fact that
corruption in Washington was scarcely
known before the war, Leads to suspicion,
1t is only since the Republicans have
had complete control of both Houses of
Congress that women have been en-
ployed as clerks in the Departments.
These women are said to be all good
looking young ladies or charming young
widows. 1t is fortunate for the Demo-
cratic members that these ladies are all
Radicals; and we hope they will get out
Of the Departments by the time the
Democrats are ready to take possession.
The daily gazette., 1876-03-07

RerTENNEss IN THE NAvY.-A special
dispatch from Washington says the
latest disclosures before the House Com
NIT! e on Naval Affairs, shows that one
Norman Wizard had feeced the govern
ment out of s25O,OOO, and had left the
country for China or Japan.
The House Committee have great diff
Guilty to get at these fellows, as the Re-
publican clerks in the Departments con-
ceal everything they can and they will
continue to throw obstacles in the way
OF the Democrats until they are con.
vinced that there is no longer any hope
for Grant Or the Radicals to carry the
next Presidential election.
The daily gazette., 1876-03-07

RICHARD II. DANNA; ir., has been nomi-
mated by the President to succeed
Schenck as Minister. The nomination is
disgraceful one. Mr.. Danna is clever
man, but he has no better character than
Gen; Schneck. Mining stock is not his
particular vanity, but he does not dis
dain either falsehood or perjury in a
stroke of literary piracy. His " Law of
Nations was piratical edition of Law
rence's Wheaton, in which he MT only
stole the notes of that accomplished ed
ltor, as was established in the courts,
but undertook to pretend nc didn' which
made the matter worse. Could not Mr..
Secretary Fish insist upon sending a
clean, unsmirched and capable man to
the Court of st. James, Justonce p
World.

When James K. Polk was President an
applicant for office sent him a present.
Mr.. Polk Immediately returned it with a
message that he had not ordered the ar
ticle, and forthwith erased the name of
the sender from the list of applicants for
Office. They have been doing things diff
ferently at the White House during the
last eight years. 1t is not surprising that
with the system established at the White
House Secretary Belknap adopted the
practice of dispensing favors to those
who paid the most for them, He was but
initiating his superior.
