or all cowardly, dirty tricks that a.
base ball organization have ever been
guilty of. that OF the Memphis boys
was the meanest. After having enter
ed into an agreement to play three
games in this city against the Reds
they left Sunday night, having full
filled their engagement only as far as
one game was concerned. Their "fa-
nous Jimmie Carr" was the main
spring of the dirty shake" He wss
pounded so numerically by the home
club, that his heart was broken and
he knew his reputation was gone He
has for years been the terror of the
base bill men Of tbe State, and this
fall of his pride was too much for
him. The whole nine though. were
hacked badly. Tbey-as one OF
their men explained it-expected to
meet the strong nine in Chslianoogs
and the weak one here, and when
they found our team SO tough they
could not stand it..
The Riversides had their expenses
paid from Chattanooga and back, and
the Reds were expecting 10 make

AS it is now, the chances are that il
will be losing investment. This
now leaves the Reds masters Of the

and at the bat they have come out
strong this year.

The Vital Energies,

When depressed by fatigue, bodily or mental, by
exhausting diseases, or the influence of de-
bilitating temperature, should be reinforced
physicians tell us-by some wholesome stimu-
liant; and among those which have been tested
and admin tered by them. none has received
such hearty recommendation as Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters. 1t has been preferred by then
from the fact that its spirtuous basis, which is of
the purest description, is modified by. and made
the vehicle for. the vegetable medicinal princi-
pies Incorporated with it. These latter render
it oonspicuously serviceable in cases of general
debility, constipation, and other disorders of the

and uterine ailments, rheumatism. intermittent

as remedies; and in liver complaint. A house

Is 1t True 4?

This is the age of shams, -sham
built houses, sham furniture and car
pets, sham pictures, sham lew9lry, lii
short, sham in every thing, even to
raZors. The Yankee is additionally
responsible for the invention OF shams.
His wooden nutmegs are historical.
In the face of these facts 1T is lot
strange that the announcement of
every new invention or scientific dis
coyery is met with the questi0n-1s it
true? When the propeiling power of
steam was first discovered, not 8 few
of our forefathers shook their heads
and pronounced the steam engine an
invention of Satan. Poor Harvey, the
Bacon of medical science, what did
he not suffer for discovering the circu-
lation of the blood? Astrology had so
long imposed upon the cTedui1ty of
mankind that any fact presenting IL
self in the garb of science was Instant
ly challenged with Halt! prove your
self" Thus it is in medicine to day.
So many useless drugs have been sold
under the name OF medicines, that
when genuine remedy does appear
it is regarded with prejudice and dis
trust. Fortunately, as inventions and
scientific theories so medicines are sub
ject to the great law of nature and
mind-the SurViUal of the true. Every
year that DR.. Pieree's Family Rene
dies are before the public they are
more generally esteemed and their
sales increase. His Golden Medical
Discovery and Pleasant Purgstiye Pei
lets are tee most popular of all reme-
dies for diseases of the stomach, liver,
and blood, oEiy because they have
proved more efeCtuaLthan any nthers.
His Favorite Pres criptioa, as specific
for the weaknesses and diseases pecu-
liar to females, il also deservedly the
most popular remedy of its class.

"And now if the chairmen of the Demo

"Thc Democrats will always be found ready
to confirm good appointments, when the

ro,s is what that OF 5. s, Cox was formerly |
an fine other side but, like Mr.. Cox he is
but little feared, Its quite probable that
the Republicans have undcvelopcd strength,
men in their ranks who are quietly looking
on, bding their time, but the Philistines
are upon them, and it cannot be denied
that they have in their ranks of the oppo'
si,on. such foemcn as have not been found
on that side of the house for years, In
noting the words and the manner Of the
speeches on Tuesday il was apparent that
those on the Republican side were little
bombastic and sensational, while those ON
the other side were terse and argumenta-
tive. Those of Mr.. Muldrow, of MiSsis-
sippi, Senator Lamar's successor, and MI
Hurd were particularly able. Gen. Chal-
mers, of Mississippi, made avery eloquent
speech and it was impossible not to admire
it as an oratoucal effort, but it would have
answered better for fry campaign Grafton
than for the deliberate argument of states
man in legislative body. While the
childish personalities between Mr., Congcr
and Mr.. Chalmers will make the ground
lings laugh, they cannot but make the ju-
dicious grievc' When representative Of
Mississippi says that a representative of
Michigan reminds him of court fool with
black swallow tail substitute for cap and
bells, and when the representative from
Michigan replies that the Mis-
sissippian reminds him Of a mon
key chattcring and grinning on hand or
gan, the country is reminded of the very
loose manners Of boys debating society,
or of a fish market But both the criticism
and retort were received with rounds of ap-
plausc, not only from the galleries, but
from the floor of the house.
Speaker Randall has almost completed
his arrangement of committees and will
announce them to the house on Monday
18th inst, if congress shall be in session
on that day. 1t has been the policy o
the majority to adjourn over Monday il
order to prevent the Greenbaekers from in
) Producing financial bills, Monday being tn
only day, according to the rules, on which
such measures can be introduced. TIL
Greenbackers do not Of course, approve @
this sharp practice, and, it is said, the
have threatened to 90 over en- massc to tn
Republicans if they are to be snubbed il
this way by the majority. The Democrat
majority is such a small and uncertain
quantity that they can i'll afford to max
enemies Of ncutrals Three or four Demo
Gratis are sick, and Mr.. Stephens, of Geor
gia, although he keeps his wheels bette
than in the previous congress, cannot, OF
account Of his feeble health, always be re-
lied upon to vote.
