POOR GUIDES.

James Redputh has written letter 10
the colorcd people of the South, a copy
Of which has been sent TO every newspa
per South Of the Ohio river, advising them
10 join the Democratic party on the best
terms they can obtain. Ho tells them
they can expect nothing from this ad-
ministration: that their old masters have
more influence with Hayes than they, and
it is for their temporal welfare to buy pro-
lection with their votes from the Demo
cratic party. IT Redpath, Wendall Phil
lips and others who delight in denounc-
ing President Hayes, because he does
not fall in with their extremely radical
views, cared one-half as much about
creating a little brotherly love between
the North and South as they do in foment-
ing discord and placing the reconcilia-
ton OF the North and South out of ques-
ton, their words would he listened to
with much more attention by all sensible
and patriotic men. As il is, the views
of such extremists as Redpath and Phil
lips will be entitled TO very little consid
GRAFTON in the attempted work Of mod
crate, fair-m,nded men in settling the all
important Southern question in an ami
cable and peaceful manner.

SURVIVAL OF THE FITFEST,,

The ingenious doctrine propounded
ty Mr.. Darwin, the tireless investigator
OF nature and her laws, is as applicable
il determining the fate Of medicines a.
IN that of the animal species. Every
year new remedies are brought before
the public and are soon completely dis
carded as their sale rapidly decreases.
Only those medicines which are best
suited to he peoples wants survive the
first test. If they "are tried, and found
wanting" In the merits which they are
claimed to possess, no amount of adver-
Using will make them popular. Of all
the remedies ever introduced 10 the pub
lie, none are so popular as DR.. Perce's-
Family Medicines Their sale has incrcas-
ed each year, and wholesale druggists as
sert that the present demand for them is
greater than ever before. If you would
patronize medicines scientifically prepar-
cd use DR.. Pierce's Family Medicines
Golden Medical Discovery is alternative,
or blood cleansing, and an unequal ed
cough remedy Pleasant Purgative Pei
let's, scarcely larger than mustard seeds,
constitute an agreeable and reliable
physic; Favorite Prescription, a remedy
for debilitated females; Extract of Smart
Weed, magical remedy for pain, DO wei
complaints, and an unequaled iiniment
for both human and horse flesh while
his DR.. Sagc's Catarrh Remedy is known
the world over as the greatest specific
for Catarrh and "Cold in the Head" ever
given to the public. They are sold by
druggists.

WAR! WAR!

The declaration of war of the Car OF
Russia closes with the following para
graphs:
Having exhausted pacific efforts, we
are compelled by the naughty obstinacy
of the Porte 20 proceed to more decisive
acts, feeling that equity and our own
dignity en- JOIN US. By her refusal Tur-
key places us under the necessity of
having recourse to arms. Profoundly
convinced of the justice of our cause, and
humbly committing ourselves, TO the
grace and help of the Most High, we
make known TO our faithful subjects
that the moment foresecn when we pro-
nounced words to which all Russia re-
sponded with unanimity, has arrived.
We expressed the intention to act in
dependenily when we deemed it neces-
sary, and when Russla's honor should
demand il.
"And now invoking tho blessing of
God upon QUE valiant armies, we give
them the order TO cross the Turkish
frontier"
A portion Of the Russian army has al
ready crossed the frontier into tho Rou-
manian territory. War! War!

nAEN OLE TEE NET POLICY.

The President has ordered the troops
from the State House IN New Orleans,
and By this time the order has undoubt-
odly been put into effect. This act Is
the commencement Of new southern
policy problem and the country at large
anxiously awaits it's solution. The scar
pet-bagger" steps down and out, land the
"originai" Southron steps up to govern.
Ben Hill lately said, in speaking OF the
duty of the South, owe must do all in
our power 10 protect, elevate, educate
and advance the negro" 1T tho South
pursues,hat plainly marked path ofduty
in good faith and to the end we shall hear
no more OF Southern misrule." II is now
left with the "chivelry The "better
class" (as it is claimed) of Southern men
to restore order and peace in the
South. Great is the responsibility rest
ing with them. They have claimed
from the first that they been oppressed
and ground down by the "heel OF mill
tary despotism." They have demanded
that their states should be as "free as
Massachusetts" All they have asked
has been granted. They have no longer
cause TO complain. Time onl y can prove
whether the new plan will work out a
successful and ina! adjustment ofall the

4 movement is on foot TO re-organize
the old wing party, under the name of
the Republican Wing party, to carry out
the ideas of Mr.. Hayes-to econonize,
and to recognize bi-motallie standard
of money, making silver as well as gold
the legal and standard coin OF the United
States. This measure is attracting to
its support many influential and widely
distinguished papers, aud a host of good
local papers are among its adherents.
1t will afford good ground for discon-
tented spirits to stand on, and it is not
at all improbable that it may successful
ly unite the best elements Of both the
North and tho South. The President
continues town friends from both par
ties and his course, so far, has unques-
tionably carried out bis declarations in
his letter of acceptance and inaugural.
There is also much Improvement in
the social life at the White House. Wine
and liquors are dispensed with, and
there is great moderation in dress.

this week, leaving on yesterday tor

But comparatively few changes are be-
ing made in the government depart
ments, aside from the reduction of force
No new appointmentsin the engrav-
ing and printing bureau, Of the treasury
department There were 800 clerks and
employees discharged on last Wednes-
day, and 200 more are to go oH the
last of the month. This wholesale dis
charge carries distress and suffering in
to many humble homes, the most of
them being poor women, who, in many
cases, have dependent families. The
pension and patent Offices have been
weeded out, and the others are looking
on with fear and trembling. Nothing is
SO uncertain, and no position more servile
than q government clerkship.
Business appears to be improving, and
money Is being let at lower rates than
for ths last three years. 1t is hoped,
and 9Th some reason expected, that the
harG times are going to let up on US for
a season. G.
