We would like to have the South Haven
Sentinel state TO its two hundred readers In
Anegan county and its fifty in Van Buren, ooun-
ty what 1t expects to gain for its candidate. Mr..
A. 8. Dyckman, BY ito personal attack on Mr..
Burrows. What good does IL expect to COCOON
plish by its Misrepresentation in connection
with the election Of two years agoa Does not
that sheet know that the defeat Of two years
ago was not because the people had any objec-
ton to Mr.. Burrows, but because they were
defrauded out Of their votes by the grossest
lying and misrepr perpetrated by
the Stone faction, the Gale and Parker faction'
and the May faction, OF which latter the Senti-
mel man was an active member? We can tell
that concern that traducing an opponent will
not help his candidate, neither will it bring HIM
one inch nearer the South Haven Post-office,
for the obtaining OF which he appears to be
bending all his energies.

The democrats reason thus:-The nation is
in need OF reform therefore the nation ls IN
need OF Democracy.
The nation is burdened with heavy debt;
therefore it should be ssddled with Democra-
cy.
The nation is suffering from hard times;
therefore it should accept Democracy.
The nation ought to have better currency;
therefore it should have Democracy.
Everybody should have all the money that is
wanted therefore everybody should support
Democracy.
Every passing i'll has it's antidote, and this
antdote is Democracy. From black spot in
the civil service to q hole IN a mans hat the
only remedy lies IN dose Of Democracy. We
may suffer few ills as people, but good men
generally will pray that to these may not be
added four years Of Democracy. The West
may have it's grasshoppers, the East hard times,
the South it's Ku-klux but all Of these combin-
ed in one plague could not equal the evil efforts
Of q single term OF Democracy. The Lord
spare the land this severe affection

Already the name Of John Morrissey is an
nounced as very proper one for place in
Tldens Cabinet He certainly should be re-
warded by such recognition, as the nomina-
ton was largely due to his manipulations at
st. Louis In the event of success McMullin,
the Philadelphia bully, and Randall's alternate,
is to be made collector Of the port Of Philadel-
phia. To complete such meritorious selections
it is suggested that the position Of judge OF
the Criminal Court would be proper recogni-
ton OF the work of Slater, the recently pardon

Our readers will remember that at the June
session OF the Board Of supervisors Of this
county the matter OF the stenographer came
before that body for the second time, and
that ii was disposed OF by the adoption of q
memorial TO the Governor, requesting the re-
vocation Of 80 much OF the commission, or
authority, under which the stenographer was
made an officer OF the Circuit Court, as applied
to this, Van Buren,, county. The Board in
structed copy Of that memorial, signed by the
chairman and attested by the clerk, to be for
warded to his excellency, Governor Bagley,
which was done within day or two after the
adjournment of the Board, and consequently
has been in his hands four or five weeks.
On Monday last the County Clerk received
notification that the memorial had been received
and that he (the Governor) had referred the
same to the Attorney General for his opinion
as to whether it was competent for him to COM
ply with the request OF the Board by revoking
the appointment so far as Van Buren, county
was concerned, or whether he should revoke
the appointment for the entire circuit and then
reappoint said stenographsr for the otheripart
of the circuit.
In about month or 80 the Attorney General
will report to the Governor, and on that opin.
ion, We suppose, he will act some time during
the season, The whole OF the law touching
this matter has been twice published in these
columns-once in January last, and again in
May. The law is very plain and, to our mind
is not involved in any intricacies nor surrounded
by subtleties or obscure terms requiring
Philadelphls lawyer" to unravel We fail to
see the necessity FOR so much "red tape" IN
less it may be to, in some way. create an i'm
preston among the people that there is some
thing about stenographers commission so
vast and abstruse as to require all the legal
knowledge contained in several heads to un-
ravel 1t, and in way to befog the Taxpayers
| This matter first came up at the January
session, and was acted upon by the Board in
a way expressing their views so emphatically
that there was no mlstaking what they we're
In April last new Board was elected by the
people. This latter Board took action on the
matter, which was just as emphatic as that OF
| the former one, and this after the subject had
received good deal of attention and discussion
| by the people. II is fair to assume that the
action OF tho Board was in accordance with
! the peoples will. There can be no doubt of it.

Mr.. Halsted says in the Cincinnati CONNER
cial: 1.-THE paragraph about the South in
Hayes's letter is that part OF it in which his
personality appears. II is not only true that
that which he says of the South is extremely
good, but that it is his own and reflects his SEN
tments and character. Our knowledge OF Gov.
Hayes is so clear that we feel warranted in say
ing to the South that he has opened his heart
to the people of that section, and that they
should take him at his word-for it is the word
Of gentleman and soldier, man who has
seen war, and who loves justice and peace"

The Democrats are IN favor Of civil service

Representatives. Every Union soldier suspect

There might be some compensation for this if
Democratic Union soldiers took their places

in the line OF reform, even good-natur ed peo-

Tilden's friends claim that he carried the
State in 1874 by $4,000 majority. His vote was
416, 900 against 37s,OOO, which gives him ma.
jority Of IS, 900 only. Last year majority OF
IA $40 is claimed for his ticket, His vote was
1000 against 5000, which gave him some
1000 majority. 1t is well to state the figures
accurately, as they take down the lofty preten-
sion Of Governor Tilden's popularity, and show
that he has fallen Far short OF his claims to
public confidence. He will find that q reyolu-
ton has tsken place since it was seen that he
wore only the mask of reform. and that New
York is good for $4,000 against him, OF which
Kings county will furnish 10, 900.

The great question for the people to decide
next November is whether they are ready and
willing to at once surrender the. government OF
this great country into the hands Of the very
man who few years since sought to destroy it
by rebellion. This cannot be gainsaid, for it is
well known that the main reliance for the sue
cess Of the Democracy is upon solid vote
from the States forming the late Confederacy.
Without this they recognize the hopelessne IS
OF their cause.

color, qcith the gloss and freshness of
youth. Thin hair is thickened, fall
ing hair checked, and badness often,
though not always, cured by It's
use. Nothing can restore the hair
where the follicles are destroyed, or
the glands atrophied and decayed;
but such as remain can be saved by
this application, and stimulated into
activity, so that q new growth of
hair is produced. Instead of fouling
the hair with a pasty sediment, it
will keep it clean and vigorous. It's
occasional use will present the hair
from turning gray or falling of,
and consequently prevent badness.
The restoration of vitality it gives
to the scalp arrests and prevents
the formation of dandruff, which is
often so uncleanly and offensive.
Free from those deleterious sub
stances which make some prepare
tions dangerous, and injurious to the
hair, the Vigor can only benefit, but
not harm it. If wanted merely for
a HAIR DRESSING, nothing else
can be found so desirable. Contain
ing neither oil nor dye, it does not
soil white cambria, and yet lasts
long on the hair, giving it rich,
glossy lustre, and a grateful perfume.

THE RAILROAD.

There can be no hook to hang a
doubt on, that the New Orleans Pa
ci6c Railway under it's present ex-
cellent management is progressing
finely, nay rapidly. And the beauty
of all this is that it does so in a quiet,
smooth, business-like manner and no
fuss is made about it; no debts con
tracted are left tagging, but all are
paid monthly up to the last red cent
With no long train of dead beat and
red tape officials to mildew its treas
ury and sap its life blood, the bust
ness system inaugurated at the very
start has been continuously kept up
and now we have to record that the
workmen, fully seven hundred strong,
with monthly fresh recruits, are
clean out of Rapides, and digging
away at the earthly bowels of Match
itoches at a rapid lick, and as we
write have fully forty miles of the
Road graded, and we'll graded at
that. Thousands of ties are already
on the grounds, whilst the contrac'
tors are busy in the sw amps getting
out more, and by the 1st of October
will have sufficient to lay thirty
miles of the Road. We see no cause
for a single moment to change ou1
good opinion of this Road, and te
again hint to some of our New Or
leans friends that they are certainly
cutting their own Threats when they
are permitting themselves to doub
of it's early completion, or that it Cal
but be the salvation of the fast eb
bling of the trade of their great city
We would seriously advise them tt
quit fighting it legally, come her
and thoroughly examine it, ant
spend their lawyers fees in takin!
stock in it. We know nothing which
would be more sensible or pay bette
