SPIRIT OF THE GERMAN PAPERS.
TThe Volksfreund.1


Prince Louis Napoleon, the hope of
France, better known as Lulu, who for
several months has been fighting with the
English against the obstinate Zulus, has, ii
is said, been killed while reconnoitering.
A second and third dispatch confirm the
statement His body was entirely stripped,
and covered with seventeen wounds. The
tragic end of the Prince, notwithstanding
that the prospects of Napoleon ~. as
cending the French throne were poor since
the Republic became solid, is of political
significance.
[The Volksblattl
The House adopted resolution yester-
day which admits of the exchange of trade
dollars for legal tender dollars. This move
ment is good and remedies the wrong done
the people by the Government in discredit-
ing the trade dollar. The clause added
however, is to be censured, namely, requir-
ing the recoining of trade dollars into
standard dollars and in the same quantity as
standard dollars are coined in each month";

Mr.. WHlTELAw REDS address, de-
livered last night to the Ohio editors, is
an admirable production and well worthy
of man who has risen to the highest
place in the profession of his choice. The
most striking point is where in picturing
the newspaper of the future he shows
that it is not volume but quality that the
public demand, and that the paper of
the future will be smaller rather than
larger than the big journals of to-day.
The advantage to the reader of the
smaller paper, if well-edited, is pointedly
given by Mr.. Reid as follows: "Tha
business of daily newspaper is
to print the news of the day,
in such compass that the average reader
may fairly expect to master it during
the day, without interfering with his
regular business. When it passes be,
yond these limits it ceases to be a news.
paper, and it ceases to command the
wide support which is essential to its
success. a feeling of annoyance arises
in the mind OF reader who has put into
his hands more matter than he can pos
sibly find time to read. He does moi
want to skip any Of it, because he feel
that if he does so he may b.
missing something he ought tc
get He can not possibly
read it, and, at last, in feeling of irrita.
ton, he abandons the paper, buys small
er one in its. stead, skins that, and as
sumes that if it was properly edited he
has missed nothing of real Importance
He does not wish great masses of undi.
gested news thrust upon him, in bulk
that he may take out what he wants. He
insists that his editor shall do this fol
him; shall select the salient points and
present them within reasonable com
pass. 1t would make no difference if you
offered him the undigested mass at the
same price with the compact summary
He will pay just as much for half the
matter if put in manageable shape"

ests between the different sections of
our common country; but like the
different pieces of huge machine,
while each seems to perform, and does
perform a different function from the
others; yet each is factor, and an
indispensable part of the whole
What we want, are men. skilled, tried
and true, to put this machine in good
running order Men who would
make war upon, or are even distrustful
of section of that machinery, will
necessarily destroy the whole, and

understand and fully comprehend the
harmonious working of the whole

and impartially apply the lubricating
oil where it is needed, and when it is
needed. We don't want "ring mas
ters' or "clique managers" but we do
want large hearted, clear headed, sa-
gacious statesmen and patriots at the
helm-men who can and will subor-
dinate self to patriotism,-to coun-
try-men who regard public theft and
peculation q crime-men whose econ

own enclosures, and deeper than
their own pockets.
The times demand that he who is
now found fighting the war over
again, on the rostrum, in the pulpit,
or through the press, be branded as
an enemy to his race, and a traitor
to his God and country.
The times demand that the asper-
tiles and fiendish passions of the
past shall be forgotten, or at least
forgiven, and that peace and good
will shall reign supreme and triumph
ant from sea to sea, and from the
lakes to the Gulf; that the business
of the whole country may spring into
new life and vigor, and march toward

war ON the Democratic Party.


In his speech at Philippi on the
first inst, the Hon Charles j. Faux
ner made the following pertinent re-
marks relative to the attempts to dis
organize the Democratic party:
In many parts of the State, and
especially in the Third Congressional
District, organizations were formed
and are still forming, whose avowed
purpose is to break down and destroy
the Democratic party of West Virgin
ia. The new party, composed of a
full share Of disappointed Democratic
office seekers, processes not to be sat
isficd with the ability and good faith
Of the old Democratic party to relieve
the people, yet, perching itself to a
large extent upon our own platform,
it proposes to push our policy to the
extreme measures, which we do not
believe to be practicable and wise.
The only effect of this new organiza-
alton, if persisted in, is to create di
visions amongst those who ought to
act together, and to give the State to
the Republicans. 1t is rule or ruin
policy. Such movements may accom-
plish ends in particular counties, dis
tricts and perhaps in one or two
States, but as q National party, it
cannot be said to have an existence.
1t does not command one State in the
North and West, and the Solid South
looks to the Democratic party, alone,
for relief He said for his part he had
not lost faith in the old Democratic
party; whenever fairly tried, it had
never been found wanting. For near
twenty years it had been out Of pow
er, and was not responsible for a
single evil under which the country
now laDors. w neneVer IL gets III full
possession of the government it will
give the people all the relief which
sound and honest legislation can give
them. He saw no results from the
present movements of the dissatisfied
Democrats, but to secure the contin-
ued triumph of Republican policy. If
they preferred that result to the sue
cess of the Democracy it would be
more manly to unite with the Repub-
licans at once. He had no fancy for
these new and untried organizations,
while the old one of approved merit
was fully competent to do what was
right He was for fighting for Dem
ocratic principles under the Demo
cratic flag.

THE DEATH OF NELLIE
GRANT SAKTORIS.
Effect Upon Her Fathers POlit-
icaI Prospects.

New YORK, August lit is
thought here that the death of Nellie
Grant Sartoris will put an end to
Gen. Grants tour, and that he will
return to America as soon as intelli-
gence of it reaches him. OF course,
he will now refuse to receive public
ovations and on his return, will at once
retire to the shades of private life.
The effect the loss of his daughter
will have upon his future is being
thoroughly canvased. Some think
the fact that he will be compelled to
come back to this country deprived
of the advantageous aids of public
receptions, will in a great measure
retire him from the eve Of the multi
tude, and so inure to his loss. 9th
ers say that the sympathy of the pub
lie will be with him in his great Attic
ton, and that he will be urged once
more into public life in order to furn-
ISL occupation to his mind. 1t is
known that Grant loved Nellie with
all the intensity of his strong nature,
and it is limited that the only thing
that made him covet third Presi-
Dental term was the benefit that
would accrue to her socially in Eng
land as the daughter Of the Chief
Magistrate of the United States. And
now that the incentive is gone, it is
thought that the General will no
longer permit the use of his name
in connection with public office.

A Change.

Since the Democrats have had con
troll Of Congress, jobbery has to a
considerable extent been banished
from the National Legislature. BY
cutting down the subsidies to corpor-
ations and individuals, and the with
holding of land grants to railroads,
the expenditures of the Government
have been reduced about forty million
a year. Silver has been partially re-
monetized, and during the next ses-
sion will be put on an equality with
gold, The Pacific railroads have been
compelled to make provision for the
payment of their Indebtedness to the
Government. No Credit Mobilier
transactions have been allowed, and
many other abuses which were sane
toned by the Republican party, have
been reformed, since the Democrats
assumed control of Congress. Had
the Republican party retained their
majority in this branch of the Nation
al Legislature everything would have
gone on in the same old channel. The
leaders of that party are the men who
inaugurated the policy of extrava
gance and corruption which has we'll
nigh bankrupted the nation; they
were personally interested in continu-
ing the rbuses which they originated
and sanctioned, and therefore cry out
very bitterly against the reformation
which the Democratic majority have
been instrumental in bringing about
But the reformation in the Legislative
department cannot be made complete
while fraud and corruption exist in
the administration department of the
Government. Offices of high public
trust appear to be administered for
the exclusive benefit of relatives,
friends and political rings. The only
way to effectually break up these
abuses is by the substitution Of off,
Gals who will have, the nerve to ex-
pose and reform all wrong doing in
high places. In 1876 the people voted
to make change all round, but their
wishes were disregarded, and they
were cheated out Of their votes. A
change in the administration is Just
as important as reform in Congress,
and just as necessary to complete the
good work of reformation in the abus-
es that have been created by the sys-
tenn of reckless extravaganza adopted
by Republican administrations. A
great many people have grown suspi-
cious of the desperate tenacity with
which the Republicans cling to office,
and are beginning to see the necessi-
ty Of a change. Voters are becom-
ing convinced that in order to pre-
serve the Union it is not absolutely
necessary to always vote for the can
didate presented by the Republican
party Untontorn Democrat.

The Ohio caimpagn has really
been in progress since the nomina-
tions were made, though to-day was
the time agreed upon by the two com
mittees for its formal opening Both
parties will make strenuous efforts to
elect their tickets. The Republicans
have speakers posted all over the
state and will try to play a bluff
game, while the Democrats are going
right along quietly and we hope eff
feetively. A prominent Democrat Of
Ohio says ''if we fail this fall it will
be for lack ofthorough organization"
On this question according to late
advices from there little apprehension
need be felt. We expect to chronicle
the triumphant election of General
Ewing as Governor of Ohio.

Noble Action.

The circular published to-day over the
signature Of Mr. Pepper should make him
many votes in this county. 1t is one of
those manly productions which show that
he would rather be right than to be Judge.
The temptation TO join forces with other
candidates than those with whom he was
nominated has been very great, and would
have overcome any man of less sterling
qualities than those OF John c. Pepper,
especially since Judge Peasants and
Judge Glenn were both on another ticket,
But he started to make the campaign
agaius, Judge Smith and he does not pro-
pose to win against any other candidate or
descend TO any trick to get the position.
FROM this action republicans, democrats
and nationals may know that they will
have an Independent and honorable Judge
it he is elected.

The p ysical Paradox.

It has been said that ''the blood is the
source Of life" 1t is as truly the source
of disease and death. No life, that is to
say, DO healthy tissue can be generated
from impure blood. no organ of the body
can normally perform its functions when
supplied with impure blood. The fluid
that should carry life and health to every
part, carries only weakness and disease
Blood is the source of life only when it is
pure Ii it has become diseased. it must
be cleansed by proper medication, else
every pulsation of the human heart sends
wave of disease through the system. To
cleanse the blood of all impurities, use
