turning Ihs rabies.

A good story is told of the Count
Amadee du Noe, the great French
caricaturist, better known as
Cham" He went into a restau-
rant and took the seat generally &C.
cupied by a stock broker. When
the broker came in he was wroth
at the usurpation, but recognizing
the man, thought he would play a
Joke upon him. "Do you know who
that tall, thin, solemn stranger is"
he asked Of the landlord. The
landlord did not know. "That,"
said the broker, sis Hendenrich
the executioner." With a jump
the startled landlord hastened to
" Cham" and begged him to depart,
saying that he would not charge
him for what he had eaten.
I" CHAINS " features never changed.
"May / ask who told you that | am
the headsman?" The landlord
pointed out the broker. "Ah," an
swered "Cham," imperturbably,
che ought to know me, for | logged
and branded him at Toulon not
two years ago" The broker never
tried TO play tricks on the caraca-
turist thereafter.

played Dixie, and when finished the
cries for Pryor were renewed for some
minutes, when the band resumed Dixie,
following it with Yankee Doodle, which
was received with cheers.
Mr.. Pryor failing to come forward, ex.
Senator Doolittle took the platform, and
was greeted with applause. He said he
had been laboring since he came here
to keep cool, inside as well as
out, and did not think it proper
during a recess of the Convention to
speak at any considerable length, and
especially not to express any personal
preference as to candidates. He believed
that great responsibility was resting on
this Convention, to take such measures,
present such platform and candidates as
shall make victory certain. The Repub-
lican party is a great party, and not a
weak party; he had fought with it and
against it; knew it inside and out, and he
claimed that for fifteen years it had been
war party. Not only during the war, but
after the war had ended by the recon.
struction of the South in order to gain
unlimited control Of both houses Of Con-
gress, he saw in the Senate a gentleman
(Mr. Stockton, of New York;, now on
the floor Of the convention, driven from
his seat. The speaker proceeded with
further illustrations of his ch~arge-that
the Republican party bad usurped power,
trampled the constitution under foot,
robbed ten millions of people of every
civil right and subjected them to the will
of military dictates. He urged hat
on nominating Hayes and Wheeler,
the Republican party had not changed
its spirit, genius and character. 1t will
be despotic, and it is for this convention
to act here wisely, calmly and without
passion in such a way as to secure a
change Of administration and SO change
the policy Of the country and restore
constitutional government. Let the dele.
gates look beyond the excited crowds
assembled at the hotels here and see the
people beyond and their views, senti.
ments and needs. It vas among
them the battle was to be fought,
lost Or won, and the conventions &C.
ton must be addressed to the necessi.
ties Of that field and nothing else.
Mr.. Breckenridge, of Kentucky, was
next called for, and took the platform
amid applause. He acknowledged the
compliment to himself and Kentucky,
and proceeded to urge broad, national
and unsectionsl cooperation of all Sec
tions Of the Democratic party to change
the national administ ration. They were
not as Eastern or Western men, but as
Democrats and Americans. Applause
Let them act only in that spirit and 60
to battle under some great leader, who
should guide them to great victory. II
was no common foe they had to fight;
no enemy easy to overcome.

THE 0 Ar sr. LOUIS.

In the course of a long article,
under the above caption, the New
York Herald says: "The South
do not mean to ride a dead horse in
this Presidential canvass. They
lean toward Tilden so long as he
seems strongest in the North; but
if his real support falls short of the
boasts of his friends ON the first
two ballots they will put a speedy
end to his hopes, and start on
a fresh search for the winning
man. It is only Mr.. Tilden's
Northern adherents that will prove
stanch and steadfast if his success
in the convention snot immediate,
and when his loosely attached
Southern supporters have dropped
away his devoted Northern follow
ers will be of no avail. He must
either succeed early or fail utterly.
If he is very strong at first the
Southern Hendricks men will come
to the rescue; but if the Dragging
estimates of his friends are belied
by the first and second ballots the
Southern Tilden men will waver and
break. The looseness of the South
ern allegiance to persons gives Mr..
Tilden'no reason to hope that any
of the Southern delegations will
fight a persistent battle for him.
What they are in quest Of is a man
who will substantially unite the
Northern Democrats and be accept
ed with the vigorous unanimity
which has greeted the nomination
of Hayes on the Republican side.
The South do not want a candidate
who would be exposed to a Demo
cratic fire in the rear"

instruct and Reason.

DR.. LeConte, in Popular Science
Monthly, remarks that much Of
what is classed as instinct in~the
lower animals is really intellection.
In many of the lower forms of ami
mails, it is true, there are actions
which seem not the result of either
the experience Of the individual or
the education of its parents, who
frequently die before the Matching
Of the offspring. There actions
have been grouped together,
whether simple or complex, as di-
rected by what is called instinct, us
opposed to reason. Yet there Is
every gradation between the two.
Among the various races of dogs
we observe not only reasoning pow
ers of a rather high order, but dis
'hnct traces of moral sentiments
Ike to those of the human race. So
IN wild animals which have been
tanned. You win reply that these
qualities have been developed by
human education; but not so. There
must have been a latent capacity in
the brain to receive the education
and to manifest the results by the
modification Of the habits. Now,
1t is because we are vertebrates,
and the animals of which we have
spoken are y~ertebrates, that We UNI
derstand, though imperEectly, their
mental processes, and can develop
the powers that are otherwise latent.

Keep the Liver Acuye

The above is a sound health maxim. In
order that the functions Of digestion. evaoua.
ton and secretion shall be discharged with
that degree of regularity and visOr which is
essential to the well being of both body and
mind, the liver, upon whose activity they arc
dependent for their due performance, must be
kept in good working order. Calomel and
blue pills. besides being hurtful mineral
drugs, only partially and temporarily reclify
disorders or sluggishness of the great hillary
gland. HOstetter's Stomach Bitters, on the
contrary, accomplish thoroughly what the
above medicines fail in doing, and are besides
a safe as well as potent remedy for disorders
Of the stomach, bowels and organs of urina-
ton, as we'll as an uneQualed general inyiro-
rant. They are, moreover, a sterling antidote
