THE CAMPAIGN
WEEKLY SENTINEL

The first number of the Campaign Weekly
Sentinel viii be issued on Wednesday, JuFy
and be continued each week until Novembsz
10.
Every issue viii contain a complete sum-
mary of the important political news and
opinions of the week, and large amount of
interesting information.
The Democratic party has never been more
determined or more of unit than il is to- DAY
and every indication points to a brilliant vic
tory In November. But TO insure that victory
1t is necessary that every true friend of honest
government should "put his shoulder TO the
wheel" and do his utmost to nelp the common.
cause
The importance of keeping the people thor
oughly informed in such a contest can not be
overestimated. In no way can this be done
so effectually as by circulating among them a
live newspaper of established reputation
which furnishes every week a fresh, full and
accurate account of current political events in
the State and country, and presents the issues
of the day clearly and forcibly.
The campaign Sentinel will be found or
oughly alive and up to the mark in every
respect, and we bespeak for IL a lar circuIa--
ton. A copy should be placed In the hands OF
State, and to this end We invite the co-opera-
ton OF all our friends and subscribers, and OF
If subscriptions can not in every cese be OBJ
tanned, send the paper free. A little money
spent In this way now will be much more
beneficial and far-reaching In its results than
ten times the amount expended in some other
way near the close Of the campaign.
The terms are exceedingly low and within
| the reach of all.

An 10. Rap

The Chicago Inter-0cean gives those gen.
tlemen who are responsible for the defeat of
General Grants nomination q rap on the
knuckles in the following paragraph:
Where are the men who were going to
startle the country with enthusiasm IL any
body except General Grant was nominated
for the Presidency? A good ticket has been
placed before them, and General Grant is
not on it; still these eminently respectable
people tarry in their quiet retreats. The
banners remain implanted and the bands do
not play. The men who shed barrels of
sweat to defeat Grant have apparently not
drop 10 shed for the Success OF the ticket. Is
IL possible that they became so heated dur
ing the Convention and the campaign previ-
Gus that they have been compelled TO fly to
some cool watering place for the relief of
their fevered bodies? How 1t is, or why it
Is, perhaps IL is not well TO waste time In
stopping TO consider"

Republican Prospects in Pennsylvania.


Mr.. Bauer. q writer of much thought and
ability, and editor of the PIitsburg PA }
Volksblatt, an independent Rspuolican
papers, gives the following sketch of the
disordered state of the Republican machine
in Pennsylvania:
So far matters and things look decidedly
blue among the Republicans of Pennsyl vania.
The defeat of Grant at Chicago fell like a
thunGerboIt upon his friends, the old leaders
of the Republican party in this state. In the
beginning they :elt stups6ed as If felled to the
ground with a blunt Instrument. They had
counted with such certainty upon his nomin-
alton. AS far as the whipping-ln of the masses
on election day was concerned, they were posi-
tive that this could be accomplished in 1880
Just as well as ii had been done ia 1872. The
stupefaction seems to have disappeared and
has made room for a deep, suppressed wrath (;
too far In our suspicion. But often we hear it
expressed that the Grant psope Will support
the Chicago ticket only with lukewarmness,
in order to give the Democrats q chance to
secure the power over the Federal Govern
ment,so thai four years hence the party would
be too glad to pick up Grants again as the savior
in distress. A bad sign it is undoubtedly
that so far IL has been impossible
of Allegheny" this County is called
because of its immense Republican ma jority,
to arrange even for ratification meeting in
consequence of the bitterness of the family
quarrel among the different factions Of the
party. Besides, we find too often in "stal-
wart" spers of the State Singular expressions
which admit that the State OF Pennsylvania is
doubtful State. Should, perhaps, the wish
be father 10 the thought in this instance? For
the Republican party ii is better that its at
tention is called TO that threatening danger at
once. 1t will not do 10, play hide and see x
with such appearances OF discord and signals
of defeat. Much must be changed before the
Republican party of this state can go to battle
with its usual confidence of success.

Garfield's Washington Life.

Washington correspondent of the New
York Sun, has this to say of Garfeld's
status at Washington, where he has spent
most of his time since 1868:
The Republicans at the Capital, who are IA
miliar with the daily walk and life OF Garfield,
know full well that the Credit Mobilier cor
ruption and the De Golyer bribery mere
incidents in career notorious for jobbery and
hypocrisy. His votes and the influence Of his
position In the House of Representatives have
been huckstered about Washington for years
in almost every scheme of spOltat1on before
Congress. The parties who bought and who
sold him, of course, have an interest in con
cealing their criminal completely, aud inves-
tigation has barely scraped the surface of his
habitual traffic as a legislator.
Considering his talents and his opportuni
ties, Garfield has generally got less money for
almost any Of the corrupt crew who
have made merchandise of their positions
on Committees or their votes on the door.
He has usually been In the hands of sharp in
termediaries, who have made him pay dearly
for proeerving venal secrets, Thus, Dick Par.
sons, of Cleveland, who was hired by the agent
of De Golyer and Mcclellan to buy Garfield's
influence as Chairman of the Appropriate
Committee, pocketed $1,000 for that service
while he only gave Garfield 50 coo, although, as
he swore, he had agreed with him to 'sshare
the fee."
AS business corruptionist GARFIELD is not a
success, though he mas contrived to make
himself easy in circumstances, and might
have been much richer than he is II the facul.
" of exaction mad been added to his easy vlr'
1ant of opinion, he has constantly required
ready money, and he usually accepted what.
ever sum was offered without stopping to con
slider whether it was an equivalent or not fol
the service rendered.
For these and other reasons, which may be
made known hereafter the nomination OF
Garfield fell fiat at the Capital, not much
from disappointment on the part of Grant
Blaine or Sherman men as from knowledge
OF his character and the conviction that II
could and would be asSailed successfully a.
wholly unworthy OF the place TO which he
aspires. Thus far his opponents have prac
ticed the utmost forbearance In referring only
to those points which investigations by Con
greSs have made clear.
Whenever the time comes to consider Mr.
Garfield in his capacity as Christian states
man, and to strip off the mantle of hypocrisy
which has covered foul interior, the country
will see an object 10 be loathed. 1t is the dread
of tins exposure, superadded to what is al
ready known, that Induces Republicans O
established repute to urge so desperate a re
source as the withdrawal of Garfield's name
from the ticket as the only means of saving
the party from disgrace as well as defeat.

PURITY OF WATER.
Professor Huxley States Some Interesting

Professor Huxley States Some Interesting
Facts. - fsa
Some very instructive remarks were made
recently by Professor Huxley, during the
criticism of g paper by DR.. Tidy, on water
for dietetic purposes Dr. Tidy's paper, PRO,
fessor Huxley thought, contained good
deal of what might be called biological tur-
bidity," and he would, therefore, endesyor
10 act as a filter and state only what were
demonstrable facts. Diseases caused by what
people, not wisely, call germs, such
splenic fever, pig-typhold, etc, are
caused invariably by bodies OF the nature OF
bacteria, and those bodies could be cult
waited through twenty or thirty generations,
and then, when given to the OK or the pig,
would invariably give rise to the character
istic disease. We have no reason even to
imagine that any body capable OF causing
disease by such means could be anything
but body having the nature of bacterium.
Now, bacteria are just as much plants as
mushrooms or cabbages or the Wellingtonia
gigantea, go that We know under
what conditions bacteria can live
terra can be sown, and will thrive in Pas
tours solution just as cress or mustard in
the soil; and Professor Roscoe, an eminent
chemist, thinks it doubtful whether there
was any known method to ascertain whether
If drop of this solution were placed In
gallon of water its constituents could be es
timated. Every cubic inch of such water
would contain so 600 to 100, 600 bacteria, and
one drop of 1t would be capable of exciting
putrefactive fermentation in any substance
capable of undergoing that fermentation.
The human body may be considered as such
a substance, and we may conceive OF q water
containing such organisms which may be as
pure as can be as regards chemical analysis,
and vet be as regards the human
body as deadly az prussic acid. am aware,
continued Professor Huxley, that this is
terrible conclusion, but it is true, and If the
public are guided by percentages they may
often be led astray. The real value of g de-
termination of the quantity OF organic inn
purity in a water is That by it a shrewd no.
ton can be obtained as to what has had &C
cess to that water. II it be proved that sew
age has been mixed with it, thereis a very
great chance that the excreta of some DIS
eased person may be there also On the
other hand, water may be chemically gross,

being in the diseased germs,

General Hancock Served Entirely Through
the War as a Volunteer.
New York World.l

New YORK w Orld.l
Our esteemed contemporary, the Times,
affects to be much amused on finding Gen
eral Hancock spoken of in the Petersburg
Index-Appeal as volunteer officer in the
Northern army" The VirgiDian journalist
is better acquainted than the Times with the
history of the civil war. The Rochester
Union, commenting upon a similar blunder
in the Tribune, thus tells the tale:
All of Hancock's service during the war of
the Rebellion was as volunteer officer In
command of volunteers, and not a regular
officer in command of regulars. When the re-
belliOn broke out Hancock was not in the line,
but In the staff of the army, a Captain in the
QuartermasterS Department, on duty in Call
fornia. At his own request he was transferred
to the East for active service In the field, re-
on the 23d OF September, 1861, appointed q
Brigadier General of volunteers. On the 18th of
November, 1882, he was promoted a Major
General of volunteers, and with this rank he
continued to command until he relinq uished
Ii after the war closed and returned to the
promoted to a Major Generalshtp. While he
was In the field all through the war volun-
teer General, commanding volunteers In ac-
ton, his rank In the regular army grew from
Captain to Major @. M, November 80 1853, and
from that to Brigadier General in the line
a word, the comparison which the Tribune has
invited is this: Garfield left his .COlonelcy OF
an Ohio regiment of volunteers to take rank
and position as General upon the staff of Rose
Grams, q General of the regular army, and then
left Rosecrans' staff in the midst OF the war to
his rank and position on the staff of the regu-
lar army to take the rank of General of volnn-
teerS, and at the head of an army of volunt eers
fought the war through to the bitter end.
