THE STATES RIGHTS SCHOOL OF AMER
ICAN POLITICS.

One of the best speeches made in the
recent canvass of Delaware was the brief
address of Hon. N. B. Smithers, in the
City Hall of Wilmington, on the night pre-
ceding the election. 1t was good speech,
because it dealt with one of the chief is
sues of the canvass-probably The chief is
sue-comprehensively, philosophicaily, and
with unanswerable logic. Mr.. Smithers
analysed the theories of Southern states
manship .massed behind Mr.. Tilden's can
didacy, and he showed their essentially mis-
chievous and dangerous character. The
same theories of States Rights now go
strenuousIy insisted upon by public men of
public men of that school which Mr.. Bay
ard represents are those that have already
produced three malign and deadly crops
the Notification movement of 1880; the
Secession doctrine of later day and fl
nally the armed Rebellion of 1861. In
yielding power to the school Of politics
where such doctrine is sAtaught, the Nation
would consent once more to the encourage
ment aud propagation of theories which
dlrBhly llhYb OOTnb GuCn bltvcA l4hiuI UhN
have cost il 30 much distress.
1t does seem amazing, we confess, thai
upon such questions there should be more
than one opinion amongst Intelligent men
outside Of the South at least. That Tx
American people could possibly tolerate tire
sight of those pestilent political notion
which were Matched by Calhoun half cen
tury ago, and which, since, have perpetual
ly assailed the principles on which the Re
public is founded, besides having menace'
and destroyed the public peace, seems be
yond a reasonable explanation. 1t woult
appear that either they do not comprehen,
the forces in their own public AFFAIR.", or tia
they are Indifferent to dangers which do nc
appear in their immediate pathway Ger
tainly the experience of the past recorded
on very recent pages Of our history in let
ters OF blood, ought to make every intelli
gent voter refuse to take the first step to
ward bringing into power theorists whose
theories have been found so full of evil,

TITLED Foreigners.
THEY ARE SAID TO B 6 FIoKLE As LOVERS. AND
TYRANNICAL AS HUSBANDS.

THEY ARE SAID TO BE PICKLE As LOVERS, AND
TgRANNIoAL AS HUSBANDS.
A lady correspondent writing from Wash
ineton to the Hartford Tunes says: The
notice of the arrival at New York of Earl
Roseberry reminds me of the number of
American girls who have been Tilted by
foreigners on account of their lack OF for
tune. Settlements always form so promi
nent a part of marriage in the old countries
that these foreigners attempt the same
stipulation i'll the United States. Last win
ter the daughter of w. B. Duncan, of New
York. visited Miss Edith Fish, and was fre-
quently seen in society, where she ranked
among the bellies. Prior to the failure of
the banking firm of Duncan, Sherman Il
Co tbis young lady's engagement to the
Earl of Roseberry was announced, and last
winter she was looked upon as his fancee.
He is now the husband of the wealthy Miss
Rothschild.
There are more than one Of the fair
bellies of this city who have been similarly
treated. One young lady even went so far
as to change her religion in order to remove
what the family called an objection. Her
lover departed with the promise of return
| ing. She has never seen him since, but
| shortly after his arrival in France he wrote
to announce his marriage to lady whom
his father had selected for him on account
| OF the dover she brought. Six years ago
Count rurenne, one of the attaches of the
French legation, plighted his troth to a
beautiful girl in Georgetown.
The count met with an accident In his
childhood that las dwarfed his proportions
and produced lameness from which be
will never recover. Notwithstanding these
defects, the young lady preferred him to
| all other suitors The counts father re-
fused his sanction to marriage without
the necessary settlement being made. This
the young lady's father cannot do, without
impoverishing his large family and much
as they would like to be allied to the great
house of Turenne, they are not disposed to
make so great sacrifice.
The count was 80 Jealous of his betrothed
that while lie was here he would not per
init her to see any company, even with hel
sisters, in her mothers parlor When he
returned to Europe, five years ago, he laid
the same injunction upon her. She hat

sETTLE IT PEACEFULLY.

There are some foolish and violent peo
pie on both sides, apparently, though more
of them, as we think ,on the other side than
on ours. But the average good sense of
the people ia going to keep things steady,
and the result of the official counv in three
doubtful States, whert it is legally arrived
at and daily declared, SEill be accepted as
final. No sensible pt9 pm wants any more
blood.
The election OF Mr. Tilden, if one of the
three disputed States should be counted for
him, would be, it is true, falsely-iounded
and unfair thing. His friends lave stolen
Mississippi by bloodshed, and as it now ap-
pears, North Carolina, by various wrong
practices at the polls. Their frauds in New
York city and Brooklyn are apparently not
deniable. But still the 4uccess of Mr. Til
den, though accomplished by these methods
would have the form of legality, and eppo,
sition to it by unlawful means could not be
justified. Whatever shall appear to be the
fair honest count in South Carolina, Florida,
and louisiana must be taken as the settle.
ment of tho great contest. If all OF them
have voted for Hayes, that settles it. If
any one of them has voted FOR Tilden, he
must be President. That will be the yer
dict of an immense majority of the people
and if anybody is dissatisfied, and can tind
40 opponent, let the two go off in some
quiet place and flight it out to thei
hearts content. The American people
have fought enough and want peace. Tnes
will tolerate small irregularities, and abide
by a legally declared result, rather thai
resort to any violent methods Of redress.

Facts for the People.

AS the virtues of medicines can only be ascer
tanned by careful observation, it IS to be regretted
that many OF the drugs still prescribed by some
Physicians shoula retain place in materia
medica. As an instance Of this, that vile drug Bal
sam Copaiba furnishes example. About the year
1870 the Spaniards in the Island Of san Iomingo
having become afflicted with certain complaints,
thought, according to tile prevailing notion at that
time, that the remedy might be found where the
disease originated. Under this impression Basam
Copaba came INTO use, but never has nauseating
drug done injury, for it not only changes the
nature of the disease to more dread state than
the original but it ruins the tone of the itomach
and brings Dyspepsla in its worst forms. To
void this drug and its effects the SAMARITAN S

ALWAYS TRUST.

Worthy and dear brother, know how

Gods covenant in your trials. Hold
you by His blessed word, and sin not.
Flee anger, wrath, grudging, envy,

your fellow.servants, because your
Lord has forgiven you ten thousand
talents. For | assure you, by the Lord
that your adversaries shall gain no adj
vantage except you sin and offend the
Lord in your suferings By the way
70 overcome is by patience, forgiving
and praying for your enemies in doing
whereof you heap Goals upon their
heads. and your Lord will open a door
10 YOU 10 your trouble. Wait upon
him as a night-wAtch waiteth for the
morning he will not tarry go up
10 your wAtch.iower, and come not
down but by faith, and prayer. and
hope, wait on. When the sea is fall, ii
will ebb again aud a. soon as the
wicked are come 70 the top Of their
pride. and are waved high and mighty.
then is their change approaching. Now
! trust 10 the Lord that ye shall, by
faith sustain yourself. and comfort your
