Account for it in whatever way they
may, and make for it whatever exeu
ses they please, the fact cannoi
be denied, that the result Of the Ohio
election is a verdict of disapprOYal by
the people of that State of the manner
in which president Hayes became
such. The fault is not 50 much with
Mr.. Hayes himself He, as an individ-
ual, is all well enough in his way, and
may make pretty good chief magis-
trate. But the trouble is be holds an
Office to which he was not elected. The
people of the United States preferred
another man to him for the Office Of
their chief executive at the last cleo
ton, and so expressed their preference
at the polls. This will Of the people
was ignored. and although their YER
dict by a majority Of over a quarter Of
million of the popular vote was
against Gen. Hayes, he was, through
the Vaccinations Of designing politi-
clans, inducted into the Office to which
Gov. Tilden had been fairly elected.
Now though. the people might not
have any individual preference for
Mr., Tilden over Mr.. Hayes, and one
might make as good a President as
the other, yet the independent portion
Of them are not prepared to tamely
submit to a fraud Of the magnitude to
a theft Of the Presidency without
murmur, and then sanction it by vot-
ing with the party that committed it.
The Workingmen's movement had
something to do with it, and dislike of
the Southern policy" may have eff
fected it some, but the main cause of
the Republican rout was the unwill- |
ingness Of the people to even seem to /

sion fraud. Rather than do that they
stayed away from the poles preferring
% forego the exercise Of the privilege
If the election franchise, rather than
lrray themselves on the side Of dis
honesty and fraud in elections. That
vas what was the matter, and, unless
We are vastly mistaken in our opinion
# the honesty of the masses of the
American people, that is what will be

ion.

A TIME-HoNoRED SPECIFIG.-The long
and successful career of Dr.. Wisharts Pine
Tree Tar Cordial as contrasted with the
speedy collapse Of nostrums devoid Of efficacy
which have from time to time been putfed into
brief notoriety during the twenty odd years
that this celebrated medicine has been sold,
affords a proof that the American public con-
tinues to repose its confidence in deserving
articles only. The Pine Tree Tar Cordial has
long been recognized as the leading specific
for Consumption, Bronchitis, Coughs Colds,
Asthma, Diptheris and all other diseases of
the breathing organs. 1t is, moreover, GER
tain, speedy, and safe botanic remedy for
Dyspepsia Liver Disorders, Scrofulus Affec-
tions, Urinary Troubles, Gravel, Dropsy, De-
bility, Constipation, and Female Complaints
Constantly aceumulating evidence of an un-
impeachable character establishes the fact
that it not only entirely eradicates the dis
eases to which il is adopted, but also that its
action is remarkably prompt and thorough.
