DIR. Tutt has been en-
gagged in the practice Of
medicine thirty years, and
for along time was demon
strator of anatomy in the
Medical College of Geor-
gia, hence persons using
his Pills have the guaran-
tee that they are prepared
on scientific principles,
and are free from all
quackery.
He has succeeded In
combining in them tho
heretofore antagonistic
qualities of a strengthen.
ing, pargative, oa<}a paS.
Uying tonic.
Their first apparent eff
feet is to increase the ap,
petite by causing the food
to properly assimilate. .
Thus the system Is nour.
ished, and by their tonic
action on the digestive or.
gans, regular and healthy
excavations are produced.
The rapidity with which
persons take on fesb,
while under the influence
of these pills, Of itself in
dictates their adaptability
to nourish the body, and
hence their efficacy in cur
ing nervous debility, mel
ancholy, dyspepsia, vast

gishness of the liver,
chronic constipation, and

EUsTIs having been admitted to the
Senate, that body is full for the first
time since the close of the session on
the Sd of March, 1873. At that SEES
sion each of the States had its two
Senators in the chamber, making a to-

Mr.. Kellogg, as Senator from Louis

with the close of that session, and the
refusal of the Senate to admit Pinch

left a vacancy which has existed since

Gotham'S La. 2omance.

New York has enjoyed first class
romance. Miss Clara Hammond,
daughter of Dr. William a. Ham
mond, formerly the Surgeon Gener-
al of the United States, was married
few weeks ago to tho Marquis
Alanfredi Lama, Of Italy. The
romance Of the event is chiefly con-
nccted with the groom, of whom it
is said that he arrived in the United
States some five years ago It is
said Of him that he is the third son
OF Conra(lo di Manfredo Lonza, and
that he bears the title of Marquis, in
virtue Of Il special privilege granted
some three centuries ago. He has
seen service rs Il soldier, and by
reason of his experience in this
capacity is expected to make his way
in the New World. The close of
the rebellion, however, shut out the
opportunities he sought. Owing to
his inability to command the English
language he soon found himself
without resources. While in these
desperate straits we'll known lady
of the city, discovering from his
singnlarl y well bred manner that he
was gentleman entitled to higher
consideration than that which for
the moment he was receiving, took
him in hand as a protcge. He was

and which threatcn$ the morale of
the party in Ohio far more than

While the Republicans of Ohio
arc depressed, the Democrats arc

not only that they will elect IL COVER.
nor but that they will send q Demo
crat to the Senate to succeed Stan~
ley Mathews, who fills an unexpired
torn.
Thus whilo Mr.. Hayes sits in
Washington and prates complacent-
ly about the speedy disruption Of
the Democratic party his own rotten
party is drifting upon tho quick
sands, and promises soon to become
II hopeless wreck. And if, when
Congress meets after the Ohio cleo
ton in October, it shall be seen
that the Republicans haye lost
that State. Mr.. Hayes will
need all the support his
friends, Democratic and Rcpub~
ican, can give him, to protect him
from the wrath Of the enemies in

lllellt.

a prophet is not without h, nor
save III his OWN country. 1t is not
unlikely that the first rebuff received
by MIR. Hayes will come from his
native State, Ohio. There, even in
November, out of total vote of
653,00o, his majority was barely
seven thousand and tho detection
of one voter in a hundred would
about throw the balance on the
other side. Now, unfortunately for
MIR. Hayes, an election will be held
in Ohio in October, and it is feared
that the malecoHtcnts. who disap>
provo of his Southern policy and
civil service reform, cannot be whip
ped back into traces by that time.
The Republican leaders even doubt
the cxpclicnt of Introducing into
their State convention a resolution
endorsing the President, for fear of
defeat there. which would, OF confsc
lead to total rout in the state. Ben

Baker to lay IN experimental por-
ton of his single rail propelling
track along the BERN bank of the
Erie canal. The rail, which is to be
elevated, is intended to act in con-
neotion with cog-wheels and an in
expensive engine placed on each
canal boat as substitute for
horses. The machinery is simple,
aud the cost, it is asserted, is less
expensive and the facility of con-
struction better than any method

The presence of Radical editors in
tho North Carolina Press Associa-
ton is an clement of weakness, as it
prevents the attendance Of II num-
Der Of Democratic newspaper men.
The objection made to the Radicals

The consideration Of tie cuNsiitu-
tiunal amendment on schools has
been postponed by the Legislature
till next session. This action is
probably wise, as it is. said TO have
been caused by fear of total defeat
of the amendment. We sec no Just
grounds on which tho amendment
can be rejected. The Democratic
party IS pledged to the education 0
the people, while the amendment
itself was almost unanimously
adopted by hoth parties in every
county except EdSciield, the vote
being $4,000 for it to 5000 against
it. Tho degree Of enlightenment
of any people is measured by the
hbcrality of the support it gives to
education; and the practical
abolition Of free schools, in the
inability Of the people to support
pay schools, would be q step towards
barbarism. We sincerely trust that
the Legislature next winter will
evince wisdom and give the people
the amendment they voted for.
