knowledge; in our own family, it has prov

troubled with colo pains, quiet sleep, and
the parents unbroken rest at night Most
parents can appreciate these blessings
Here is an article which works to perfection
and which is harmless for the sleep which il
affords the infant is perfectly natural, and

ments by the thousand. There are few
things man will not do for the support of
his wife and children; but our sympathies
are with General Hancock, and we are
thoroughly tired of this sectional strip be-
tween the north and south, kept up in the
interest of such political hacks as Blaine
and Garfield"
We are too closely on the eve OF, perhaps,
decisive elections TO indulge in predictions.
Prophecies are thick on all sides with re-
gard to the Ohio and Indiana elections,
but, by the time this reaches you, you will
have something more reliable than guesses,
The republican plan Of "intimidating the
business men" has proved a failure. The
feelings of the business men show them
selves unerringly in the stock market,
WEIGH shows no indications OF depression OF
apprehension. Intelligence from all
branches of business indicate that Mr.. Conk.
ling's lurid rhetoric has not excited the
slightest alarm.

WASHINGTON LETTER.

GOVERNMENT CLERKS AND THE ELECTION -
BuLL-DoZING BY THE ADMINISTRATION
DEMOCRATS IN THE DEPARTMENTs-MR
Combines INEFFECTIVE RHETORIC.
from our Regular Correspondent
WASHINGTON, Oct 12.-There is intense,
almost painful excitement and suspense in
this city relative to the elections IN Ohio
and Indiana, which, ere this reaches you,
will have taken place. SO many hundreds
Of men, women and children in Washing
ton depend for their very bread on the re-
publican party that any change in the adj
ministration can not be regarded by them
as otherwise than calamitous. Until the
election Of Mr.. Tilden, four years ago, such
change was supposed by them to be too re
mote for anticipation, but the revelation
then of powerful democratic majority,
that was only kept out of its rights by
fraud and usurpation, has shocked them
into the realization that the patronage Of
the United States government is not, after
all, an usufruct Of the republican party.
1t is certainly great wrong that the per-
sonsl Of the civil service should depend up.
on political parties, do not think it would
be great exaggeration to say that one half
OF the government clerks would vote for
Hancock rather than Garfield, could they
be entirely Independent, and feel assured
that it would not adversely effect their for
tunes. The way this fraudulent adminstra.
ton bulldozes government clerks, not only
to vote for their ticket, but also to support
il with their money is the most disgraceful
thing in the annal of our political history.
But after all il is not impossible that it
il will be "hoist by its own petard." There
is no doubt whatever that some who have
been forced to contribute money or lose
their places, and who have been sent to
Ohio and Indiana TO vote. will vote the
democratic ticket, A very intelligent
government clerk said to me the
other day; IF Hancock shall be
elected you will be astonished to find what
large number Of democrats there are in
government departments here. We con-
tribute to the campaign fund, we march in

STATE EXTRAVAGANZA.

The Illinois State Register has the fol-
lowing: In 1856 the republicans electe d
Bissell to be governor of this state and
since then that party has controlled the
state expenditures. The total expense of
the state in 1866, the two last years the
democrats were in power, was exclusive
of payment of the state debt, s529,560.03.
In lS77-S the total expenses Of the state,
exclusive of the payment of the state debt,
was 1888, ,39769. In other words, the
republican party in twenty-five years has
increased the state expenditures seven
fold. In 1850 the population Of the state
was S51 $40; in 1860, 1,704,291; IN 1870,
2,511 ,096, and in 1880 (unoffclaD, $780,
900. 1t is estimated that the population
in 1856 was 1,277,SS0, being the popula-
ton of 1850, plus S51 ,470, one-third the in
crease of the decennial period $4,000. The
total increase was $50, S21, one-half of which
is 426,410, and this, added to the popula-
ton of 1850, gives 1878 $50, as the popu.
laton of 1856. The state appropriations
for 1S79-S0, exclusive of payment on the
state debt are $3,722, ISL, being more than
seven fold the expenses in 1866. Thus,
while the population Of the state has not
increased three fold in the twenty-tour
years, the expenses have been increased
more than seven fold. If the people want
any change from the system that produces
this result they will have an opportunity of
affecting it by their votes next November"

A FEW FRIENDLY WORDS TO
OUR NETGHBoR. - 'A9

When we first knew the editor Of
the Knoxville Tribune, twenty-five
years ago, he was fighting democ-
racy, and we must say that, for q
young man, he did it right well.
We remember to have heard him in
the year 1856, and he then gave
some excellent and forcible reasons
why the people ought not to elect
James Buchanan president of the
United States. lie fought democ-
racy, as we remember, until 1861,
supporting John Bell for president
in 1860. Hence, we are spared
the necessity of presenting reasons
to show him why ante.Jellum de-
mocracy ought not to be trusted.
In giving our reasons for saying
that the accession to power of the
democratic party in this country
would prove a public calamity, so
far as the editor Of the Tribune
is concerned, we have only to deal
with that very uncertain quantity
known as the democratic party,
since 1861. We say uncertain, for,
excepting the four years during the
progress of the war, the democratic
party has had no fixed policy or
principles. During that period, in
one section of the country, the full
power Of the party was being ex-
erted to destroy the union. In the
other, it was made of venomous
cOpperheads, too cOwardly to fight
on either side, but doing ali they
could to discourage enlistments in
the union army and to starve out
