The yell of mingled consterna-
tion and defiance which went up
from the Republican party when
Mr.. Potter proposed his Committee
of investigation into the Florida
and Louisiana frauds was really
one of the most absurd things in
our politics. 1t was emphatically
case of the CALLED jade wincing.
There would have been no cry of
pain had they not been perfectly
aware of the fact that their withers
would be wrung by an investiga-
tion. The Democratic party has
only sought for an investigation
when its candidate was cheated out
of an Office to which he was elected
by the people by majority of
thirty-six electoral votes aud a
popular majority OF yearly half
a million. The Republican
party, at time when the man
of its choice was seated
securely in the White House, or
Gered an investigation into alleged
Electoral Fraud.'in Nsw York in
the Presidential election of 1868.
III this investigation there could
not have been single element but
mere malice. The Republican
party was willing to profit by
m illion dragoobed negro votes In
the South, but it was not willing
to allow the overwhelming Demo-
cratic majority of New York City
to assert itself. The following is
this famous resolution of o Repub-
lIcan House Of Representatives,
and 1t should be read carefully by
those who have been influenced by
an insiLcere barbaric yawp:
Resolved, That the memorial
from the Union League Club of
New York be printed, and that q
select com mittee OF seven be ap-
pointed To investigate the irregu-
lafities aud frauds therein alleged
to have occurred in the city and
State of New York affecting the
recent election Of Representatives
to Congress and electors for Presi-
dent and Vice President, and re-
port thereon to this House; and
that the said committee may hold
sessions in the State Of New York |
and elsewhere by quorum or by |
of such number as |
the committee shall delegate; and
that they have power TO send for |
persons aud papers, to administer
oa tbs TO witnesses, and to employ |

the least. They employ, while
running their works up to the full
from 600 to $50 men. For
some time, work being slack, they
have had only $50 men and have
been DESTROYS Of reducing their
force. AS soon as the action of the
laborers got abroad to-day they bad
numerous applications for work,
but engaged none. They say they
could have got laborers at reduced
rates, but do not know at present
how great a reduction, as they did
not talk with applicants, having
no need at present to fill the places
of those who have left.

MIR. A. G. BIERCE, the literary
snap dragon or snap turtle who ex-
coriates the local San Francisco
poets for the Argonaut, INDUCES,
in the last number of that paper, in
an elementary treatise on the
iambus and trochee. If Mr.. Bierce
will turn to the writings of Edgar
Allen Poe he will find the work far
better done. But perhaps he has
already turned with profit to the
treatise of the dead poet to
which we refer. BY emptying Poe
into the columns of the Argonaut,
that Journal would have secured
better work at less pay.

4. E.sen.,., Preliminary.

Ths Democratic party in the
United States to-day is simply bur-
dened with the elements of victo.
ry. It is not voters that it needs
but purpose. To the surprise and
disgust of those who remembered
the old Democracy, our party is to-
day timid and hesitating. 1t is
dangerous thing to let the idea get
abroad that party lacks manli-
ness. There is a large element of
tragico-comedy in the politics of
the United States. Bombastes
Furioso was the original of most OF
our Republican machine poll
ticians. The whole herd are now, in
effect, repeating that sublime
couplet,
Whose shall these boots displace
Must meet Bombastes face to face.
The Democratic party was bull
lied out of claiming the election of
Tilden and Hendricks. 1t just es-
capped being bullied out Of the Pot
ter Investigation. Although it
summoned manliness enough to
insist upon probing the louisiana
and Florida frauds, the Democratic
majority In the House of Repre-
sentatives were craven enough to
permit themselves to be intimi-
dated into declaring that no
menace was designed to Hayes's
fraudulent occupancy of the White
House by the inquiry. Nothing In
the history of the Democratic party
has so disgusted us as this act OF
pusillanimity. The dirty tracks OF
John Sherman, Hayes's Secretary
Of the Treasury, and Of Stanley
Matthews, his man Friday. are
found all over the Louisiana frauds;
and yet, forsooth, at time when
Hayes Is trembling In his boots,
guilty knowledge leaving him with
out recourse, a Democratic House
OF Representatives waivers and puts
itself on record as a craven!
Now II this Is the spirit in which
we are to enter into the politics of
the future we may as we'll throw up
the sponge at once. Unless we can
summon a masculine spirit, and
act up to the vigorous impulses
Of the old National Democ-
racy, it is childish folly in us to
expect ever to wrest power from
the hands of our cunning and hyp-
ocritical adversary. "Thrice is he
armed that hath his quarrel just"
If the Republican leaders were to
undertake to preceipitate a wal
upon men who only seek to main
-ssia the majesty of the American
people, they would meet the most
ignominious defeat chronicled in
history. They know this very
well and would not be mad enough
to essay the folly; but, as long as
they think they can win by little
buster it will be forthcoming every
time.
Our hope is that the Democracy
of the United States will elect fal
different class of men to the Forty
Sixth Congress than those who
have disgraced the party in the
Forty Fifth.

q clerk and messenger, with such
stenographic assistance as they
shall find necessary.
This Republican party which, in
the Congress succeeding the Presi-
Dental election of 1868, could order
an investigation on such frivolous
pretences, was responsible, through
its committe, for the following sem
timents which we entirely endorse,
and which are a thousand times
more applicable to the present sit
uation than to that:
This duty is one of the highest
political Importance. Irregulari-
ties and fraud in the election of
Representatives to Congress and
electors of President and Vice
President cannot fail to excite just
alarm in the minds of the people.
Unless their will can be fully and
fairly expressed in the election of
the officers who make and execute
law, the vital principles upon
which the government rests are set
at defiance, and soon We may fol-
low the fate of France, where inn
perial power was welcomed as the
only means of peace, or the anar-
chy of contending factions, so fatal
to Mexico, may close the career of
our great republic. If Congress or
the people could be insensible of,
or indifferent to, the evils of fraud
ulent elections, it would not argue
we'll for their patriotism, nor would
it argue well for the permanency
of our nationality. If the electors
are chosen by fraudulent votes the
duty imposed by the Constitution
is not complied with, and Congress
may not only regulate and pro
vide for this, but may devise
mode of ascertainlng what the ac'
tual result of an election has been
We will just remind our reader;
that whenever the Republican
party scream loudest they are mos
hurt. Their talk about revolution
is all "leather and prunella," but
they do dearly hope to stop the
stampede of their followers from a
rotten organization.

SCHUYLER COLFAX-the atten-
uated political skeleton-is being
received with distinguished consid-
GRAFTON In sections of California.
Schuyler-the Smiler-is the most
melancholy political wreck in our
history. 1t only cost $1,000 to buy
Schuyler's political virtue at time
when he was Vice President Of the
United States. He was rash
enough to deny that he had ever
received any Credit Mobilier
money, and to swear to his denial,
thus adding perjury to lie. Then
old Cakes Ames-a thoroughly en-
ragged old man-produced his famed
m memorandum book; and, 10 and
behold! the name Of Schuyler Col.
fax was down therein for $1,000;
aud, worse and worse, the $1,000
check, with Schuyler Colfax's
name endorsed on it, was found in
a certain National Bank. And
then Schuyler the Smiler stepped
down and out of public life, to be
received as Beecher will be, with
caressing and distinction in Califor
mia. All of which speaks poorly
for poor California, we think.

MIR. PIxLEY, in the last Argo-
maui, surpasses himself in febrile
denunciation of the press of San
Francisco. He writes with an ar
dor of belief which can only be
evolved from his own "true in
wardness." We beg to remind Mr..
Pixley of the homely old adage
that sit is an i'll bird that fouls its
own nest" He perhaps thinks he
can essay the Pharisaical role Of

audacious pretence recalls Colonel
Barnes's theory, in the case of the
editor of the Argondut, of " arrest
ed evolution"

THE San Francisco Post of FRI

A Secretion that COntami-
mates the Blood.

When the bile is diverted from Its
proper channels, into the blood, which
Is always the case In liver complaints, 1t
ceases to be q healthy secretion and be-
comes poison. Its abnormal presence
in the circulation and stomach is indi-
Gated by the suffusion Of the skin with q
saffron tinge, by headaches, vertigo,
nausea, pain In the right side and under
the right shoulder blade, by Indigestion,
obstruction OF the bowels and other mi
nor symptoms. Order may be substituted
for this state of chaos, and further bodily
evil averted by using the beneficent al
terative and tonic, Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters, which, by relaxing the bowels,
promotes the escape from the circulation
Of bilious imp urities; besides rendering
the action Of tho liver regular and re-
moving every trace Of dyspepsia. This
pleasant and purely vegetable anti-bil-
ious medicine is not only infinitely more
effective than any form of mercury, but
is. on account of its freedom from hurt
full properties, infinitely to be preferred
to that poisonous drug.
