Gen. Garfield made flying visit home,
last week, and his words with those he
spoke were very encouraging of the effect
Of the Potter movement upon the tone and
temper Of the Republicans. Before the in
Yestigation began, some Of the Republicans
were luksWarm-almost rebellious, but that
step has completely wound them up and
aroused them to a sense of the peril in
which the country would stand if placed in
hands so thoroughly unprinciplsd as tbs
Democrats have shown themselves to be.
The same is true throughout the State as
has been shown wherever County eonvsn'
tions have met.

CATARRH.
Bones of the Nose Eaten Out
Memory GOne-Mind Impaired
Cured by Constitutional Ca
tarrh Remedy.

The Constitutional Catarrh Remedy is the first
article placed before the public that proposed to
cure Catarrh by building up the Constitution. 1t
struck at the root of the whole difficulty. and
thousands upon thousands of letters have been
received by the proprietors, setting forth the
marvellous cures, and what is rema rkable, curing
not only the Catarrh but all other ailments at the
same time. This is what it always does. The
following statement is only a sample of what we
to whom you can write, and not to bogus ones.
Catarrh and its attendant evils, cold in head,
hacking cough, incipient consumption, headache
pain in back and loins, dizziness, languidness,
loss of appetite and general weakness all leave
together when the Consti utional Catarrh Rene
dy is taken as recommended.
PHILADELPHIA, Pa, May 7, 1874.
Messrs. LITTLEFIELD & Co.:
Dear SiTS,-It gives me great pleasure to in
form you that am able to attend to my business
again. Some months ago was taken down sick
with Catarrh, with which had been troubled for
years in the worst form, and had to leave my
work. 1 went to medical skill in that city with
little benefit. 1t was called by them the worst
form of Catarrh, Ozena. The bones of nv nose
were partially eaten away. My sense OF smell
was gone to such degree, that on one occasion
skunk. and although they said it smelled terribly
could not detect anything. l also had very bad
dizzy spells, everything seemed to whirl around
me and 1 would have to sit down ten or fifteen
minutes before could walk. have been laid up
sick abcd week at q time; in fact I never ex-
pected to get well again, and my folks felt alarm
ed at my situation, 1t also affected my mental
powers to such an extent that it was impossible
for me to remember even common occurrences
When at home was induced to try your Consti-
tutional Catarrh Remedy. 'and never while sick
was I so much relieved as while using it, and
began to improve and have been gaining RIGHT
along, and now feel as well as ever. 1 cheerfully
give You this testimonial and If it win be of any
beneft to you shall have no objections to your
using my name to help introduce medicine that
has cured me of terrible disease.
Yours Respectfully

The question Of the propriety or policy
Of the course pursued by Senator Matthews
is one thing and his rights another. Even
should it be decided that he has the right
to refuse to appear before the Potter Com
mittee it is very questionable if it was the
wissst course. He is just now under a
cloud, and in such case should avail him
self of every avenue for reaching the pub
lie with his side of the story. St. Paul Gn-
derstood this thing better than Ssnstor
Matthews, and embraced it in the thought
-''That some things are right, but not ex-
pedient."

The progress and effect Of the investiga-
ton thus far, is not very satisfactory to
the investigating party. Nothing has been
revealed of sufficient Importance to base a
charge against the President, or either Of
the gentleman named in the Potter resOlu-
ton. The principal witness-Anderson-
called by the sccusers, is the only person
yet implicated in that which carries the as
pset Of criminality. The character of An
derson seems to have been SC uncertain and
questionable, that he had very little right
to suppose that his testimony for or against
either himself or others would carry any
weight before unprsjudiced minds. That
Of Judge Lsyissee directly implicated the
Democrats In offers to Stubborn him and
make him one of their tools This is bad
beginning, and looks as if the investigators
had not we'll prepared their witnesses.

The actisn of the House respecting the
army is Ominsus. 1t reduces the present
skeleton from 25 to q, 0,0O0 men, despite the
protests Of the Texas delesation-Democra-
tie-and forbids the use of the army to
enforce the law, except in such cases and
under such circumstances az may be ex-
prsssly authorized by Congress, a prohibi-
ton aimed to prevent employing it to put
down riots in tbs north, or enforce the in
tsrnsl revenue laws in the south. The Re-
publican states hsYe proved themselves
able to take care of their rioters; and if
Pennsylvania and Indiana want repetition
Of the scene Of last year, New York and
Massachusetts, ought not to complain.
This attempt, however, to transfer the com
mand Of the army from the President to
Congress is 50 clearly unconstitutional that
no Chief Executive viii or ought to Be ham
pered by it. The bill also transfers tie In
dsin Bureau to the war department, thus
adding to its work while reducing its al
ready inadequate force, and the insufficient
compensation Of its officers.

nn1nK WORK WITH A VETO.

Adopting the arguments Of the Eastern
b~ondholders' organs, President Hayes
returned the silver bill Yesterday to con-
eress with his objections thereto. The
veto message is not a strong document
or one that will have any influence upon
the public mind. 1t passed the house with
out debate by a vote Of 1856 yeas to 70
nays. This is t~wo-thirds, with sixteen
to spare. The announcement that the
bill had passed was received with a gen.
eraI hand.clapping and other marks of
jubilation. The bill and the veto mes
sage we're Immediately transmitted to
the senate. In that body the bill did not
get through SO easily, ns its opponents
interposed parliamentary tactics to pre-.
vent instant action. The president pro
tempore, Mr.. Ferry, however, overruled
all frivolous objections. After q sharp
skirmish the bill was reached aud passed
over the veto by 46 yeas to 10 nays, as
follows:
