THAT pestiferous and cantankerous old
politician, Montgomery Blair, 10 doing all
he can to prevent reconciliation between
the Tilden and Tammany factions OF New
York. The Democratic union is trying to
restore the unity of the party in that state,
but its efforts are nullifed by Blair who ia
amusing himself by making attacks on kel-
". In his last communication he asserts
that Kelly's hostility to Tilden is kept
alive by southern leaders in order to defeat
Tilden. The Democratic union has init
mated to Blair that his retirement to OBJ
security would be very acceptable, Blair
however, isn't the kind Of man to permit
himself to be set down upon without a
struggle. The weight of the Democratic
union will hardly be sufficient to silence
him.

ONE woman can make man sufficiently
miserable when she gives her whole mind
to that sort of work, but two of them can
make him wish, every hour in the day,
that he were dead. Jessie Raymond and
her attorney, Belva A. Lockwood, are just
now engaged in taking all of the sunshine
out of Senator Hills life. The senator's
attorney went into court, day or two
ago, and moved to dismiss the suit which
Miss Raymond brought against him. The
attorney thought Miss Raymond was in
Atlanta. He had not notified Miss Lock
wood of his intention to make a motion to
dismiss the suit He had hardly made his
motion, however, before both women put
in an appearance much to the surprise Of
everybody present. Miss Raymond made
a sworn statement effectually demolishing
J the grounds on which dismissal of the
suit was asked, and Attorney Lockwood
did some tall talking for her client 1t is
not probable that the senator will get
clear of these troublesome women as easy
as he expected.

A COMPANY has been organized in New
York known as "The Mexican Telegraph
Company" The purpose is to establish
telegraphic communication between this
country and Mexico, Central and South
America, and ultimately, New Zealand,
Australia, China and Japan. The work
will be commenced by laying submarine
cables from the coast of Texas to Tampico
and Vera Cruz. At these points connection
will be made with the Mexican government
lines, which extend to the capital of Next
co. At the city of Mexico there are 1900
miles of wire, extending to all parts Of the
republic. English cable makers have Of
fered to lay cable to Vera Cruz by way of
Tampico for 100000, and to have the
work completed six months after the con-
tract Is given them. Of course several
years must elapse before the whole scheme
is completed. 1t is believed, however, that
the proposed lines will pay large dividend
on the Investment

OBERLY FOR GOVERNOR.

o We are pleased to learn that Hon. John
II. Obcrly, of Springfield, is getting the
boom for the nomination of governor on
the Democratic ticket. This is the more
gratifying to us from the fact that the
Journal was about the first paper in the
state to couple his name with gubernatorial
honors. Our long personal acquaintance
with Mr.. O.-dating back to the days when
we were both jewellers on the 'dark and
bloody ground, and our knowledge OF
his peculiar fitness for the high office,
prompted us to suggest HIM as one worthy
the favor and confidence Of the people OF
the great state of Illinois.

Hon. JACOB MUELLER, of Cleveland, Ey-
Lieutenant Governor of Ohio, has been
making careful study of the German
feeling In that state IN regard to Grants
nomination. Here are his expressed opin-
ions:
"Mr. Mueller says that from his observa-
tons and knowledge Of the German char
acter he is satisfied that nothing can take
place which would reconcile the feelings of
the Germans to Gen. Grant. They are dead
set against him, and under no crcum-
stances would vote for him. If he be the
Chicago nominee Ohio will surely give the
Democratic candidate from $4,000
to $4,000 majority, and the chances
would be good for the majority to reach
even $4,000. Why, SIR said the exlieu-
tenant governor, 4 candidly believe that
Grant would not get fifty votes among all
the Germans of Cleveland. In fact, have
not seen one who said that he would vote
for him. Personally am as much opposed
to Grants nomination as any one can be-
because | think his reelection would be a
very bad precedent"

WILLIAM L. ENGLISH, of Indiana, evil
IDENTIFY thinks the Sherman plan Of getting
his name before the public good one.
He has had sketch Of his life published.
1t occupies fourteen columns of the Indian
apolis Sentinel. 1t is generally understood
that he wants to be nominated for VICE
president on the ticket with Tilden. He
says, however, that he is not troubled with
presidential aspirations, but that in the
event of the election of Democratic presi-
dent, he would like to be secretary of the
treasury That, he declares, is the plain
English Of the matter.

GAN OLD PHYSICIANS ADVICE" Coughs
colds, asthma and other pulmonary affec-
tons should be looked to and promptly
treated in time and thus all serious results
may be avoided, and for this purpose we
know of no better remedy than 'Dr.
Swayne's Compound Syrup of Wild Cher
ry.' The first dose gives relief, and it is
sure to cure the worst cold or cough in a
very short time. Try 25 cent bottle and
be convinced, and you will thus avoid a
doctors bill, and most likely serious spell
of sickness. Price 25 cents and $Apcr bot
tie, or six bottles 49, The large SIZE is the
most economical. Prepared by D1Swayne

IT Is said that there IS entire harmony
between the Readjusters and Republicans
of Virginia. Together they are able to
control the state If Grant is nominated
at Chicago the Readjusters will support
him, which will give him the state. United
States Sena,or-elect Malone is beginning
to show his hand. He is the leader of the
Rcadjusters and he proposes to marshal
them under the Grant banner.

A TRIBUTE TO HANCOCK.

When general in Virginia could send
an editor to prison, when military courts
could take prisoners from civil tribunals,
when the freedmen's bureau was withhold
ing large tracts Of property from private
owners, when, in short, we felt ourselves to
be literally and, in fact, an oppressed peo-
pie on all the Atlantic coast, Gen. Han
cock, at the risk of his commission, pro-
claimed the principles OF American liberty
to be the lawful inheritance of the people
under his command, and we are amazed
that so many of those to whom he was a
benefactor in those days should seem TO for
get his noble declarations and his still no
bier acts. 1t seems to US that, apart from
any feeling Of gratitude, just apprecia'
ton of his craftsmanship should make him
popular fayorite; for it is only by pre-
serving the rights of minorities that the re-
public can be preserved; and those rights
are boldly announced and Justly vindicated
by General Hancock under circumstances
which give us assurance that he is emphat.
ically the man to do justice to north, south
east and west at any time and under all cir
cumst3nces.

The friends of Ex-Governor Seymour are
not yet satisfied as to whether or not he
will accept the Cincinnati nomination if
rendered him. 1t seems that Seymour
hasn't been definite enough in his remarks
about this matter to satisfy them. They
propose to address him letter asking him
to say definitely what his intentions are.
As Seymour refused to accept the nomina.
ton in 1868 until the last moment, it is not
improbable that he will pursue the same
policy in 1880. if an opportunity is offered
him.

admits that there is "dire restitution in the

also admit that these people now in distress
