failure. If, however, he can so manage
to conduct affairs as to retain the conf
dence and support of the honest and
intelligent men of his party, who are not
altogether led by mere politicians, and
who desire purity and efficiency in the
administration of public affairs, then the
phillipics of men like Mr.. blaine will
prove harmless; and though the admins
tration may sometimes be annoyed, it will
not be seriously embarrassed by their
denunciations.
AS matters stand atpresent, the Wood
stock speeches of these two personages are
not likely, we apprehend, to damage the
administration in public estimation to any
serious extent, land will have but little effect,
or receive but little countenance, beyond
the limits of their immediate personal
adherents.
As to those who constitute the Demo
cratic party, however much they may
protest against the fraud which placed Mr.
Hayes in the executive chair-and they
do, and always will, earnestly and unceas-
ingly protest against the infamous fraud
nevertheless, their satisfaction must be a
hundred fold greater in witnessing the
course of Mr.. Hayes in his efforts to
break up and dispense the corruptiug in
fuences of the party rings which have so
nearly succeeded in irremediably debauch-
ing the party morals, and which have
fattened and grown so powerful upon gov
ernment spoils, than they possibly can be
with anything Mr.. Blaine or Mr.. Cham
berlain have ever yet said or done.
The president has thus far in his admin
istration shown himself greatly their su-
perior in all that should command the res
pect and support of his fellow citizens.
Mr.. Chamberlains personal grievances in
South Carolina, and Mr.. Blaines men Of
straw which he is so fond of setting up and
knocking down, were neither of them very
suitable or instructive themes for Fourth
of July orations; nor were their addresses
of such character, or of such importance,
as to alarm the country, or to divert at
tention from more important and absorb
ing questions of public interest.

A Perfect Toilet Soap.

First among the requisites of the toilet is good
article of Soap, but to procure 1t is not always an
easy matter Many of the most expensive Soaps in
the market are made from coarse and deleterious
materials, and their delicate coorng and fragrant
perfume too often conceal the most repulsiye i'm
purities. The disclosures recently made public
regarding this subject positively startling, and
deserve serious consideration. Scented Soaps are
now known to be extremely Objectionable, especial
ly II applied to the head! injuring the hair irrta
ting the scalp, and inducing severe headaches. The
character of the ingredients may be inferred from
the statement OF gentlemen who makes Inc scent
ing Of Soaps his business he recently declared that
per.ons engaged in this employment were short
lived; from seven TO ten years being the longest
period during which the occupation could be fol-
lowed.
The difficulty of procuring perfectly pure arti
Gle of toilet soap is at last obviated, however,
thanks to the enterprise and chemical skill Of Mr.
b. T. Rabbit, of New York, the wOrld-renowned
Soap Manufacturer, whose immense establishment
is by far the greatest OF the KIND In the United
States. The renOwn of Mr. Rabbits various pro-
auctions has for many years been widely dissem-
mated, but this latest success is the appropriate
crown to the numerous victories already achieved
After years Of patient labor and scientific expert
ment, Mr.. BabbItt has succeeded in perfectinG the
composition of the frest toilet soap ever intro
ouced. The principal ingredients are the purest
vegetable oils; the manufacturing processes are
entirely and original and the result is simply
unparalleled in this department of industry.
4. "B. T. Babbtt's Toilet Soap" is the trade mark
by which this elegant toilet luxury is designated,
and for applications to the delicate skin of infants
children and ladies it is altogether unequaled in it's
eno!lient properties. This Soap is not perfumed
the ingredients being of such absolute purity
require no aid from chemistry to Disguise inferior
materials The most refined taste considers the
absence of artificial perfume the perfection of
sweetness, and this peculiar characteristic of b. T.
Rabbits Toilet soap renders it the most healthful
and agreeable article of the kind ever m8nufac,
tured.
Though specially desirable for the use of ladies
and children this Soap Is equally appropriate for
gentlemens toilet, and as it makes heavy lather
It Is also one of the finest soaps for BARRIERS use.
IL Is just being placed upon the market, but the
demand for 1t win soon become generally. Y,

Eagle Anvil Works

Made at the Oldest Anvil mandatory in this
country. All English Anyils, after time, become
following on the face by continued hammering in
use, on account Of the brOus nature of the wrought
iron-Gausing it to settle, under the steel.
But the body Of the Eagle Anvil being of crys-
tal!ized iron, such settling cannot occur and the
steel face therefore remains perfectly true. Also,
it has the great advantage, that being Of a more
SOLID material, and, consequently, with less re-
bound, the piece forged receives the FULL effect
Of the hammer, instead of part Of it being wasted
by the rebound, as with a wrought iron Anvil.
More work can therefore be done this Anvil
with hammer one-ffth lighter than required for q
wrought iron Anvil which is more elastic.
The working surface is in one piece of JEssoP's
BEST Tool CAST STEEL, accurately ground, bard
ened and given the proper temper for the heav' ~
work The horn is of tough untempered steel
The cast steel surface is warranted to be
oughly welded and not TO come off.

THE CONTROLLERS REPORT.

The annual reportof State Control
Ter Hobart for the twelfth fiscal year
has been published, and on inspec-
ton is found to be a document OF
more than ordinary interest. The
financial condition of the State in
general, the condition of the differ
ent funds in particular, the tax on
the net proceeds of the mines and
the rate of taxation are discussed in
clear and mastery manner, and
afterwards follows series of exhibits
relative to the receipts and expendl-
lures, and other matters pertaining
to the government during the year
in question. BY far the greater part
of tho report is taken up with these
tables, and the arrangement is such
that the condition of the State can be
seen at a glance. The report will be
a valuable addition to the official lit
erature of the State, and its merits
will be seen by an inspection of the
same.

WAR IN EUROPE.

War il now believed to be iminent
between Russia and Turkey. Diplo-
macy has been the order of affairs
for some time in the past, but it is.
reported that all attempts at recon
ciliation have signally failed, and
that now q recourse to arms may be
expected. It is true that the other
powers have signifed their intention
to remain neutral in the crisis, but
act as they may, the war, if it occurs,
will seriously affect the peace of
Europe in general. Russia, conf
dent of her strength and with in
herent trust in the righteousness Of
her cause, is about to issue memo
randum which will present the mat
ter in detail. Convinced that Aus
tria, France aud England will not
aid materially his cause, the Gar is
now to become an individual per-
sonage in the matter himself, and
attempt by force to gain what he con-
siders his rights and which will not
accrue to Russia in case peaceable
solution is the result. The Gar
wished peace only out of respect to
the other powers in Europe. He
reduced his demands to the lowest
point consistent with his dignity
and position, but now that mediation
is likely to fail he is prepared for
any extreme which may happen. II
this war occurs it will be terrible
one indeed. Russians and Turks
will fight for their lives and race; it
will be war of determination and
blood. All Europe will be paralyzed
with the result. The sphere may
widen and the Rhine and the Danube
and the Seine may yet be covered
with crimson as in the memorable
days of yore. Here in America
something will be gained. A market
will be offered for our produce and
manufactures; money will become
plentier throughout the land; gen.
eral spirit of enterprise and thrift
will be everywhere apparent. But
if the desolation of Turkish and Rus
sian homes is necessary to the pros
perity of this land; if rivers of blood
and tears of distress are essential OF
the sale of our wheat and corn; If the
wheels of our manufactures must
run to make instruments of death for
use in other lands, then let our
farmers remain idle on our farms;
let our mechanics drop their tools
in the shops; let the vast industries
of the land be paralyzed from want
of business and work. The war cloud
thickens as it goes rushing towards
the East; blacker aud blacker it be-
comes over the Russians and Turks,
but that it may yet dissolve in mist
and fog rather than in a deluge OF
war is the earnest wish of patriots in
every part of the world.

THE HOUSE PASSES THE BILL

THE HOUSE PASSES THE BILL.
The passage Of the electoral bill by
the House was the main theme OF
conversation yesterday in the East.
The scene during the calling of the
roll is said to have been very e1-
citing, and as each member answered
to his name outbursts of applause
were heard. The result had been
previously expected, but great
many Republicans voted emo" who
were previously thought to be in
favor of the passage. The Speaker
himself voted as arepresentative from
Pennsylvania, and his "aye" was the
theme for considerable enthusiasm
in the gallery. Both in the Senate
and House the debate was long and
animated, and with the passage of the
bill, an exciting event in the session is
brought to close. A great deal of
rhetoric and oratory was exhibited
during the debates, and some of the
speeches are models of taste. The
closing sentence of that of Field were
especially admired, and are as fol-
lows:
II could not refrain from express
ing admiration of the fidelity and
courage, coupled with moderation,
of the members of the Concurrent
Committee on both sides, and in both
Houses of Congress, when, on We'd
nesday night, they sat to decide this
question. I watched with an anxiety
which I cannot express the flag that
foated over its chamber to see if it
was still flying. There it foated all
through the night. Watching until
daylight came, and as the sun rose
over the snow, lighting up this Cap
itol from basement to dome, the flag
was furled and I knew the day was
