1873. THE 1878.
De ROIT POST and TRIBUNE.
The Metropolitan Republican Journal OF
Michigan.


TINE consolidation of The Detroit Post and The
i Detroit Tribune has resulted in making THE
POST AND TRIBUNE the Republican paper of
Michigan: Its resources It's circulation, Its facil-
titles tor obtaining news by telegraph and CORES
pondence, its combination of editorial talent, Its
proprietorship by the wealthiest and most pow
erful newspaper corporation ever formed in this
sta e, all combine to give THE POST AMI TRI-
BUNE advantages such as have never been COM
manded by any other Michigan journal. 1t is es-
pecially strong in its news-gathering department
-sparing no pains nor expense to obtain the very
latest and freshest news of any Importance from
all quarters, by special dispatches and a cOlps of
able correspondents. The news thus gathered for
the Daily editiOos will be presented in condensed
and attractive form in The WEEKLY Posi- AND
TRIBUNE.
The paper viii be thoroughly and reliably Re-
publican in tone, and will labor TO build up and
not divide the great party of Freedom and the
Peoples Rights, and will bring enterprise, expe
renee and zeal to its work. 1t will treat all ques-
tons in which Michigan is interested from the
MICHIGAN STANDPOINT, but with justice, can
dor, and infexible adherence to correct princi-
pies.
In all it's departments it will be frst-class pa
per. Its Commercial department will give to
farmers and others the freshest and most reliable
news from the leading markets of this country
and England.
It's Mlsee laneous Reading Matter will always
be carefully selected, pure in tone, fresh, racy,
Instructive, interesting, and fit for the most re
fined family circle-the very cream # current lit
erature.
Its news of all sorts will be of the very latest
and most reliable.
The coming year promises to be one of unusual
interest in politics. Political issues are IN a
transition state, with the great issues of the flu
ture Just beginning to show themselves. Mean
while shere are many conflicts of opinion and
cross currents In politics aad finance, promising
an exceedingly important session OF Congress,
with many exciting debates, and many interest
ing movements among the people. Moreover the
war in Europe, the disturbed condition of France,
the approaching Worlds Exposition in Paris. and
other Important topics will crowd the coming year
with great and interesting events 1t will be
year when every Citizen will, more than ever,feel
the needof a reliable, enterprisng, ably-con 1uct-
ed first-class newspaper, such as The Posi- AND

WE'RE THEY INNOCENT

The case of Ryan and Oschwald at
Newark is attracting as much attention
abroad as it does at home. In reviewing
II the New York Herald says: This
case calls to mind the we'll known and re-
markable case of the murder of the Ital-
ian organ grinder in Dublin some years
ago. The boy was found dead i, a
vacant lot on the outskirts of the CITY
with his throat cut. Where the BODY
lay the branch of young sapling had
been freshly broken of: Acting on this
clew the ever vigilant special detectives
followed up the case, until they hunted
down and arrested con suspicion a
tinker named Cooney, tipping "ne'er-
!o-weel," who was given to "bad COM
pany and night walking" On searching
his room the branch of the sapling, fresh
from where the boys body lay, was
.Ound under his bed. The model detec-
lives worked up the case beautifully
and everything was prepared for the
rial and conviction of the vagrant tin.
ier. But the story as published in the
,apers met the eye of Sir Frederick
iodson, the deputy lieutenant of Ire.
and, then in Paris. He returned i'm
nediately to Dublin, appeared at the
mixers trial and proved an effectual
,ldji. On the night Of the murder he
lad hired Cooney to attend to his horse,
nd had detained him during the very
lours the deed must have been com.
nitted. Cooney was acquitted. The
question then arose, by whom had the
wig of the sapling been placed under
The tinker's bed? Investigation TO-
Owed, and soon John Delahanty, one OF
The very detectives who had run the
tinker down, was placed under arrest as
he real muroerer. Link followed link
in the chain of evidence, and at last
Delahanty confessed the crime. The
specia, detectives, of whom he was one
e.joyed snug berths. ..ort were..threatened
with DISBURSEMENT because they had
nothing to do. In order to "make up
case" and prove the usefulness and ne
cessity of the special force Delahanty
first cut the poor Italian boys throat
and next displayed his own efficiency by
tracking the murderer. He would have
hung Cooney, if he could, as remorse-
lesslyAs he took the life of the un.
fortunate boy. Delahanty was executed
for the crime. We commended the case
to the consideration of Gov. Bedle. The
circumstantial evidence against Ryan
and Oschwald was as we'll worked up as
was the case against the Irish tinker.

THE IMPORTANT QUESTION.

OF all the loathsOme diseases Catarrh
stands preeminent. 1t renders its victim as
disgusting to himself as to others. And the
most humiliating of all is the consciousness
that his presence is offensive to those around
him. III any disease deserves the name Of
universal, 1t is this. Dietetc errors and. the
f0ilies which Fashion imposes upon us tend
10 foster and disseminate it. To the pitifuI
cry OF its victims, is there any cure for Ca.
tarrh! there is but one answer consistent
with Christian reason. God has never sent
one evil into the world for which he has not
sent the remedy. For the greatest of all
spiritual and moral evils, the Great Phy.
stefan has prescribed potent and never.
failing remedy. He has given explicit rules
for the treatment and preservation of the
spiritual and moral man, btt He is silent in
all matters relating,to the physical man. 1t
would be an unwarrantable detraction from
His bene6cent character to suppose that He
has afflicted the greater portion of humanity
with an incurable disease. The dav of
plaques is past. The God of Christianity is
a God of Love, of Mercy, His message is
"good will to all men," The earth and all
contained therein was intended by the gre at
Designer to supply mans wants; and surely
he has no greater wants than remedies for
his infrmities. Science is rapidly proving
that the earth is fitted to supply mans utter
most need. New medicinal plants are con
stantly being discovered and new propertie
developed from those already known. Fo
Catarrh, the most potent remedy yet discov.
cred is DIR. Sage's Catarrh Remeey. Its eff.
cacr has been tested in many thousand eases
with uniform success. Cases that had been
repeatedly pronounced incurable, readily
yielded to it. In confirmed, or obstinate
eases. DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Discsv.

A FRIEND of ours who is chief clerk in

GAELIC.

Ii can not be ascertained from anv
ofhclal reports what is the exact number
OF persons-men, women and children
whose language is wholly conf ned to
Gaelic. In the second report OF the
Education Commission, published in
1867, it is said to be "probable that the
population of the parishes within whi CHI
Gaelic continues to be the only language
which is understood by the majority OF
the people can not exceed one hundred
ana tifty thousand; these being chief Y
tue parishes Of the Hebrides, which are
wholly lnsular, and the mainland par
ishes OF tile west coast OF the .coun tie 5
OF Sutherland, Ross, Inverness and Ar
gyle."
1t is believed that since 1867 the mum.
ber whose speech is limited TO Gaelic
has diminished through various intiu-
ences, among which commercial inter-
course, by means OF steam vessels and
otherwise, has been conspicuous. We
should almost aver that Hutcheson's
magnificent fleet of steam vessels,
whether devoted to the carrying of
goods or passengers, had done more to
introduce knowledge Of Eng ish, along
with conditions of prosperity, into the
Hebriues than any other appliance what.
soever. ln the remoter or lesser is Ian ds.
which are little visited by strangers,
there is corresponding backwardness.
Barra we have already spoken of as still
in singuiarly primitive condition. At
Coll, Tyree, and some other islands, the
knowledge of English is also unhappiIy
deficient In comparatively recent
times, great change in proprie torship
has come over these islands.
The old families-such as the Mac
neils and Macleans-have mostly dis
appeared, and new landlords, with the
means and desire to improve the condi-
tion OF the soil and the population, find
themselves obstructed by the difficulty
OF holding any intelligent intercourse
with the natives. The disadvantage is
mutual, for on all hands the Gaelic
speaking inhabitants are unable to make
their wants and feelings known to those
who wish to be their friends. A meIan-
choly case of rig id adherence to Gaelic
Is that OF the extremely remote island
OF st. Kilda. Here, as was describ ed
few months ago by Mr.. j. Sands in our
pages, the natives speak Gaelic and
nothing else; in Gaelic they are
preached to by minister originally
from the mainland; he and his wife be-
ing the only individuals who know
English.-L Chambers journal.

Few writers know when to stop writ
ing; they say TOO much. Martin Luther
closed his speech before the diet of
Worms with these words: "Here
stand; l can not do otherwise. God
help me. Amen" Suppose he had
said: "The position which al present
occupy l shall continue to maintain"
Tne latter is dramatically correct.
You can praise, but literary art con-
uemns it as weak and unworthy. Go
back to the Ola Testament. "Let there
be light, and there was light" Beyond
the naked grandeur OF these words art
can not 90. And, in tact, brevlty is an
