This unusual situation must exert no

of the leaders Of each party, will have a
tendency to loosen partisan tics, encourage

There H. q curious parallel between the
experience Of Gen. NICHOLAS in Louisiana
amt the experience Of WADE HAMPTON in
South Carolina. Both Governors represented
the uprising of the people against the car
pet-bag Rings that had plundercd the two
States during the whole period Of recon-
struction. The election OF each was the
rcCstahli-hmcnt OF home rule and the tr-
umph OF honest government. Both NICHOLS
and HAMPTON were legally elected and by
almost the same votes that were given
for Mr.. TlLDEN in their respective States.
But though their titles were clear and their
paths plain before them. NICHOLS and
HAMPTON chose to secure undisputcd pos
session Of their rights by an alliance with
Fraud. Both consortcd with HAYES and
helped to sell out TILDEN.
Tainted at the outset by the disgrace
Of the bargains. the Administrations Of
NICHOLS and HAMPTON have alike disap-
pointed the hopes Of the people. Gen.
NICHOLS Ike Gen. HAMPTON. had been q
brave soldier in the Confederate army. and
was personally very popular with the Demo-
Gratis of his state. After li'tlc more than
Il year in Office his position il thus described
by Il candid and not unfrionlly critic:

The Belgian Horticulturist states
that there are mentioned in tho
Bible about fifty clearly distin-
guished plants, and some fifty 9TH
ers in more general terms. The
works of Hippocrates mention 234
vegetable species, and those of
Theophrates about 500. Pliny, in
his natural history, gives the
names of 800 plants. From the
Renaissance botany, in common
with so much else, took a vigorous
start. In the sixteenth century
enc could find 800 plants in the
works Of Gesner, 1,400 in those of
+ Esciuse, 2,731 in Dale
champs "Ganeral History of
Plants" published in 1857,
and 5000 in werk by Bauhin.
Further progress was made in the
seventeenth century, and in the
eighteenth Linn@us defined 1924
vegetable species, distributed into
1929 classes. In the nineteenth
century, according to Persons
Synopsis Plantarum." from 25, 900
to $4,000 vegetable productions
were known in 1905. In 1853 Lind

a cure, The terribly fatal inalady, Consump-
ton, is almost unknown In those Eastern
countries where the use OF the Bath, in the
fullness Of its Oriental luxury, is as common
as the morning ablutiOn OF the face with us.
We claim a higher degree of civilization than
that enjoyed by the jewellers in the land
"where the cypress and the myrtle are en-
blems. and the song of the nightingale wakes
faint er the gardens of Gul in her bloom"
But have wei Il? Does not the fact that Con-
sumption kills more OF the Anglo Saxon race
han does any other specific disease, and the
further and sadder fact that physicians are
powerless in their ill-directed fight against
it, argue that our civilization might profit by
q little sprinkling of the wisdom of the East?
few clear-headed men have indicated
willingness to learn from that most precious
fOunt-experieIce-and the wisdom of ages,
and the result is the establishment and intro
duction OF the true Turkish Bath. The pores
Of the skin are Natures great outlet for the
impurities of the system; open them thor
oughly, and disease cannot exist: close them,
or allow them to remain imperfectly open.
and disease thrives. Consumption is but the
result of clogged surface. God has provided
air in abundance for all HIS creatures. Man
absorbs 1t, but neg!ects to make the absOrp-
ton profitable. After systematic neglect
comes lethargy, with lethargy impurity, with
impurity tubercles. The respiratory organs.
are willing, but they have no object to work
for. Pure air absorbed will surely eliminate
impuri tiles from the system, If the avenues
OF escape are open. The Turkish Bath, in
which the temperature is raised to that point
which effectually opens tho pores, affords this
avenue OF escape. In this bath. administered
with tne skill which is our dOwry from the
East, Consumption and all kindred diseases
find their antidote. Carelessly or imperfectly
