stubborn Coughs, neglected Colds,
Bronchitis, Asthma, pain in the side

in the throat, Hoarscness, Sore Throat
and all chronic or lingering diseases of
the throat and lungs, DR.. Kings New
Discovery has no equal and has estab-
lished for itself a world wide reputa-
ton. A great many of our leading
physicians recommend and use it in
their practice. The formula from
which it is prepared is highly recon-
mended by all medical journals. The
clergy and the press have compliment
ed it in the most glowing terms. Go

Astonishing Success.

1t is the duty of every person who
has used BoscHEE's GERMAN SYRUP to
let its wonderful qualities be known to
their friends in curing Consumption,
severe Coughs, Group, Asthma, Pneu-
monia, and in fact all throat and lung
diseases. No person can use it without
Immediate relief. Three doses will re-
lieve any case, and we consider it the
Guty of all Druggists to recommend it
to the poor dying consumptive, at least
TO try One bottle, as 10, 1000 dozen bot
ties were sold last year, and no one
case where it failed was reported. Such
Il medicine as the GERMAN SYRUP can
not be too widely known. Ask your
Druggist about it. Sample bottles to
try sCld at 10 cents. Regular size 10
cents. For sale by J. P. Brookins &

No portion of the continent Of America presents
50 much OF grandeur, beauty aud marvellous in
t rest to the Tourist as the famous Rocky Noun
tain region of Eastern Colorado, in the vicinity of
the beautiful City of Denver. Tie magnifcence
ofthe mountain scenery is eIHaIcd only by that
of Switzerland, and mary Tourists from abroad
have pronounced Colorado scenery superior to
even that of the Alps. The popular resorts in the
mountains, famed alike for their grand surround
inSs and their magical waters, are daily becoming
recognized as the MOST DELIGHTFUL in a
merica for either health or recreation. Hundreds
of people, tired of the resorts of the East, nre go
ing to spend the summer in the grand old Rocky
Mountains amid its charming parks, majestic
snow-clad peaks, grand canens, clear sky and
magic atmosphere. The popular KANSAS Pa
CIFIC RAILWAY, with its steel rails and auto-
matte air brakes, is the favOrite Tourist Route,
and the only line running Pallman cars from
Kansas City to Denver. Low round trip rates
from all Eastern cities. Descriptive Tourist Cir

FEW WORDS OF WISDOM

FOR ALL who are seeking new homes in the
West. Eyou arc going TO change your location,
by all means You should keep on about the "sAME
LATITUDE as where you formerly lived, for in
this way you viii escape the severe climatic
changes in the weather incident to the extreme
North or South, having none of these thinge to
contend with, yourself and family are healthy and
you become a producer at once, consequently soon
Independent; on the other hand should you listen
to the many glowing accounts of the sunny South,
or the MILD climate of the North, and thus be in
duced to try your fortunes there, you will find the
reality is not all your fancy painted it. Ifyou go
South 1t usually takes about two years to get &C
climated to the climate, during which time, not
being able to work, yourself and family 4 e con-
sumers, besides being constantly exposed 10 the
malarial fevers which abound there, and the ex-
perience of many is that they return discouraged,
leaving not a few loved ones beneath the sod in
the sunny South. Therefore, in going West keep
on about the same latitude which will insure
HEALTH AND HAPPINESS. There are mos,
excellent lands in Northern Missouri on the line
ofthe Hannibal & st. 10. II. r., and in Kansas,
Nebraska and Colorado, JUST AS CHEAP AND
GOOD ASTHE sun EVER SHONE UPON,
why not accept a certainty rather than run the
risk Oflosing all? Through day and sleeping cars
are run from Toledo, Ohio, via the Wabash R,y
and Quincy to st. 10. ,Atclisoa and Kansas City.
and from Chicago via Chicago, Burlington and
Quincy Il. r whereby all are furnished irst-class
accommodations.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
From our Special Correspondent.l
WASHINGTON, ID. c. Feb. 19 1877

The Past Week-some Of its Revelations and
ley s~d Governor Grover-The Louisiana De-
cision and the Manner Of its Reception With
drawsl Of SOsthern Men Z, ON Shattered De-
nocracy and their Union with Republican,
Governor Packard, General Banning and Den
Piat-Government Defrsuders and the Aprro-
pristIon Bills.
The past week has been crowded with
revelations and events of a more start
ling nature than any since thecredit mo-
bilier swindle first opened the eyes Of
confiding constituencies to the mine of
fraud in which trusted representatives
had been wallowing; the action of the
Arbitration Court in the Louisiana case,
though not unexpected, added not
little to the excitement prevailing over
the Oregon dispatches; and the discom-
titure of Fields three witnesses-Little-
field, Maddox and Picket-had wrought
it up to a white heat at the time the de-
eision was rendered. 1t is almost need
less to state that their testimony has
been riddled past repair, and their char
acter swamped in slough ofmoral filth,
mendacity and treason to every good
word and work. The time has hardly
come for final judgment in NJ Tldens
case; enough has, however, come tohght
to establish beyond doubt his completely
in tie conspiracy to steal the Govern
ment through the subornation or theft Of
an elecIor; and he is believed TO have
been the chief who directed guilty sub
ordinates in the plot. The chain OF cir
cumstantial evidence-every presump-
uon is so complete, that patriotic men,
Republicans, Democrats, Liberals aud
Neutrals, feel they have abundant cause
for the rejoicing and gladness of heart
over his almost assured defeat, and our
deliyerence from a terrible and immi-
nent disaster.
That was a notable scene Saturday,
when Senator Kelley rose in his seat,
hardly able TO hide his emotion, depress-
ed with the consciousness ofdefeat, stung
BY the knowledge that every intelligent
man Of Oregon, and the country, had or
would read of his contribution to the
