tangible support from the Administration we
do not believe. Tho construction put by OPP
ponents upon n sentence embodied in the
Presidents inaugural address Is at variance
with his record" Assuming. for tho sake OF
courtesy. that Mr.. HAYES has n record. we are
unable to find among his public acts anything
that justiilcs our esteemed contemporaries
belief. The whole history Of his career in Con
gross may be reviewed in half dozen lines.
While in the House, Mr.. HAYES presented seven
petitions. two of which were in the interest of
small claims against the Treasury. and one
asking for an Increase Of pay for the clerks in
the Cincinnati Post OIlcc. H. offered four bills
one appropriating $4,000 for pictures. one for
the payment Of an Ohio regiments claim. one
requiring authors TO furnish copies Of copy
righted books TO the Congressional Library.
and ono adding 81 900 TO the compensation Of
the editor OF the MADISON Papers. These logs-
lativc acts with ono or two inconseduonia
motions. and one personal explanation. makeup
HAYEss record in Congress. The only occasion
whom he appeared as "a guardian Of tho public
purse was when he reported against the pur-
chase Of an old manuscript for the Congress
sional or Smithsonian Library. During his SER
vice as Governor OF Ohio there obtained in that
state a system Of wholesale swlndling by means
Of constructive fees eXacted by county officers
The report Of the State Auditor in 1874 showed
that the compensation Of the petty county OIL
cials of Ohio amounted to about five times the
total expenditure OF the executive. legislative
and judicial departments of the State. when
Gov. ALLEN was elected in 1874. he stopped this
extensive robbery and secured the passage Of
bill which saved the taxpayers several million
dollars annually. But when HAYES returned 10
Office in 1875, he quietly signed tho bill which
the county rings had lobbcd through the Legis-
laturc and which not only restored tho old
swinde in its former proportions. hut ly
retroactive clause took from the treasury what
BILL ALLEN had saved to the people. Ono
popularity of Mr.. liAYEs's record = that it may

reviewed It without discovering any aet or ut-

THE ARMY,

There arc various and weighty reas-
ems why this country should not have q
standing army. First, armies have al
ways proven banes to Republics its
education is hostility to freedom, be-
cause it requires subordinatiou; it is
burthensome, because it is very expen-
siye it is difficult of management, be-
cause it ia arbitrary; it Is useless, be-
cause we have no infringing or hostile
neighbors. The normal nature OF man
is fight, and hostility to man, therefore
we should not go to the expense OF ed
ucating him as to scientific fighting ;
that sounds well in legislative halls,
street gossip and newspaper articles,
but it don't shoot straight or make
steady nerves, The experience of this
country has clearly demonstrated that
fighting can be done as well, if not bet
ter, by militia men, as by trained SOL
diers. Our State military schools can
teach the drill, SO we can dispense with
West Point.

Some of the Northern radicals, who
seem to have ample time to attend to
other peoples affairs, are demanding in
reference in Southern local govern
ment, because Of certain outrages COM
mitted down there. Now if these
things-bad as they are, and without
tho shadow of justifcation,-were con-
fined to the South, these Northern Phar-
:sees might be pardoned for calling the
attention Of the government to the ne
cessity Of police surveillance to hold in
check assassins and murderers. But
inasmuch as crimes which are disgrace

Gen. Z. B. Tyler, the recently ap-
pointed Postmaster, is a gentleman of
excellent business qualifications and
high character, and will no doubt give
entire satisfaction to the people of Bal
timore. Although he is hrm in his po-
litical convictions, it may be said that
they will never be permitted in any way
to interfere with the performance of the
duties of his office. Every employee
under him will be required to do his
duty, and they will soon learn that with
him politics will not cover Incompetent
cy nor shield negligence. IfPresident
HAYES shall succeed in filing the other
federal offices in Baltimore with gentle
men as competent aud acceptable as
Mr.. Tyler, he will be fortunate indeed.

The commission which has been in

A reduction Of 20 per cent. is recon-
if,ended in the number Of employees,

well as the lengthening of the hours of

in the strongest terms the system OF ap-

suggest that the cnstom-hcases should
be conducted upon the same principles
that a prudent merchant conducts his
business-that is without reference to
politics, but looking solely to the quail
tication,, and fitness Of the applicant for
the post he seeks. The President has
issued orders for the prompt execution
of the commissions recommendations.
This is step of course in the direction
Of civil service reform, and that it has

Regular Secretion Essential to
Health.

The regular secretion and flow of the
gastric juices, and of the bile which the
use OF Hostetter's Stomach Bittcrs pro-
notes, are effects which conduce materi-
ally to the restoration of health, when the
system is disordered. Food is not digest
ed in the dyspeptic stomach because the
gastric fluid is deficient, superabundant
or vitiated the liver becomes congested
and the bowls constipated because the
supply of bile is inadequate or misdirect-
ed. The Bitters rectifes all this, and re-
moves every ill consequence of non-as-
sanitation and bilious irregularity. Fur
thermore, it stimulates the action of the
Kidneys, by which Impurities are, so TO
speak, strained from the blood, and any
tendency in the urinary organs to grow
sluggish and disoTdered counteracted.
Whether it be used as means Of rcgulat-
ing the overloaded bowls, or to promote
complete, and therefore healthful, urina-
ton, H0stetter's Bitters may be relied
upon with confidence to accomplish the
end in view.

IN a QUANDARY.

The radical politicians seem TO be
Just at this time in qaandary, They
are afraid to openly and in manly way
indorse the conservative policy of the
President of their own making, and
they are equally afraid to condemn it.
They wish to "cry with the hounds and
run with the hare" but they find it up
hill business. The conservative repub-
.licans are satisfied with the pacific poll
cy of Mr.. Hayes, feeling assured that
under it the country will finally reach
prosperity and pacifcation, and they are
quite weary with the Haunting OF the
..bloody shirt" They have had enough
of that. A trial Of twelve years has
shown that change was absolutely
necessary. The radicals, on the other
hand, know that with change of poll
cy will come the loss of offices, and
with them the loss of power. They do
not deserve much sympathy, however.
They had the opportunity 10 make the
country prosperous, but they abused
the trust reposed In them, and in conse-
quence trade, commerce, in fact all our
various industries have been crippled if
not ruined by their mismanagement.
They sowed the wind and have reaped
the whirlwind, and 50 they must com
fort themselves as best they may,
