reward brave and loyal soldier in
the person of General James Shields
as they pretended they were when
they attempted to gain little politi~
cal advantage by nominating that gall
liant and patriotic gentleman for Ser
geant- alarms of the House against
the nominee of the Democratic caucus.
The bill TO recompense the General for
his invaluable services to the nation
by placing his name on the retired
list of the army with the rank and pay
with which he left the service has en-
conntered the constant opposition of
these great patriots. Their latest game
was by offering an amendment to the
bill, proposing to place Grant on the
list with the rank and pay of General.
The humbuggery of Radicalism is
manifest.

Southern Claim =.

The minds of the Radical politicians
are terribly torn up just at this time
on the subject of "rebel claims" They
affect to believe that, if the Democra-
cy succeed in obtaining control of the
Government the Treasury will be de-
pleted and the nation bankrupted by
the allowance and payment Of these
claims. The howl about "rebel claim"
constantly goes up all along the limo
from the Jay Gould organ down 10
the most insignificant sheet of that
party, and it is manifest that it is dc
signed to constitute an important ele-
ment in the coming campaign. They
expect to SO fire the minds of the peo-
pie as to cast in the shade all their
peculations upon the Treasury and all
their outrages upon the rights and in
terests of the people. Hon. A. S.
Hewitt, of New York, in speech in
the House, on the 1st inst, briefly al
luded to this subject rnd demonstr ated
the downright hypocrisy and ridicu-
lousness of this Radical bugbear. He
said:
Now, Mr.. Chairman, l want to call
the attention of these gentlemen who
are SO afraid of claims, to the compar-
alive record which hold in my hand
and will make part OF my remarks
that they may answer me hereafter IL
they see fit, showing that in the first
session of tha Forty third Congress
a Republican Congress- Republican
Committee of Claims reported fayOra-
bly, one hundred aud nine cases tor
damage in the Southern States, aggrc-
eating over $S,0OO,OOO. They are tor
horses, for cotton, for mills, tor steam
boats, for stores, for nurserystOck, for
damage under contract, for pay as pilot
for every conceivable thing on which
a claim could he based, amounting i'll
the aggregate to over SS,OOO,OOO. In
fact, if the Republicans had carried the
Forty-fourth Congress this list is very
suggestive of the rapid increase which
might have been expected in the crop
of loyalty IN the South under such a
course of f'anple remuneration. Car
pet-bagging, although u profitable
into comparative insigniiicance along
side of this "new way to pay old
debts"
Now, compare that with the record
in the first session of the FOrty-fOurth
Congress, when the Democrats for the
first time held power. There were
fifty-twO cases reported favOrably, III
volving the sum of S2l5,361 only, and
out of those 1iity-twO cases there were
only passed by the House seventeen,
Republican Congress-, and all war
claims and most of them Southern
war CfHlmS, ------

Something Much Needed.

As community we have no reason
TO complain of a lack of good, even
eminent physicians, whose unflagging
energy in the pursuit of their profess
sion, entitIe them to be ranked among
able and scientific practitioners, but
nurses, especially males, who are
qualified to care for the sick intelli-
gently, are very few, and in our cities
and villages, this want is seriously felt,
and in this philanthropic age, it is sur
prising that more young men do not
devote themselves to acquiring this
useful knowledge. 1t would furnish
many employment, and save many
useful lives to friends and the COM
munity. With an incompetent nurse
no physician can treat a patient in a
critical condition with any degree OF
safety. The nurse should understand
what effect the medicine he pours
down his patients throat is desired to
have, and be able to comprehend the
fact if it is not attained, and discon-
tinue until his physician can be con-
suited. 1t very frequently happens,
that he knows nothing of the kind, he
continues the medicine until the doc
tor returns, without regard TO the eff
feet produced, and upon his arrival he
not unfrequently finds his patient
FRUSTRATED beyond hope of recovery,
because his directions have been but
too implicitly followed. He cannot
always determine with certainty, what
effect his prescription may have upon
his patient, but if the desired effect is
not attained, competent nurse should
be able to know the fact, and at least
discontinue treatment that must in
evitably result in disaster.
A few hints to those who have no
experience, and may be called upon to
take care of the sick may not be in
vain.
No person is competent to take care
of a patient who is unable to contr oil
his or her emotions in the sick room.
A cheerful face is as necessary to the
patients recovery as light and air.
Never wear "squeaking Shoes" or
walk on "tp-toe."
Never whisper in hearing of pa
ticnt. This is man-slaughter, and the
punishment should be inflicted. When
Won have anything to say-say it in
natural tone of voice, or keep 'mum.'
If it should become necessary to de
ceive your patient, make a good job
of it, for, if discovered, your useful
ness is at an end.
Never contradict patient, if you
know you are right, do your duty with
.firmness, but don't argue.
The sick are frequently talked to
death through the mistaken kindness
of friende. Ifyou can do no 6 o I'd, by
ali means stay away, when he is able
he will thank you for it.
