Wei De Meyers Treatise ON Catarrh,
explains the following important facts:
l. That Catarrhal Colds become poi
sonous infection, at first local, and finally
constitutional.
?. That, being Constitutional, the infection is
beyond the reach OF mere local remedies.
s. That Impurities in the nostrils, are
necessarily swallowed into the stomach and
inhaled into the lungs, thus poisoning the
Digestive Respiratory and Genito-urinary organs.
4. That Catarrhal virus follows the mu-
cous membrane and causes Deafness. Dyspepsia, &,
Chronic Diarrhea, Bronchitis, Leucorrhea
and Consumption,
5. That Smokes, Douches, InhalstioGs, and
lnsoluble snufs, cannot possibly remove in
fictitious infammations from the organs named.
g. That an7antidote ior Catarrh must pos
sess an inocu1ative affinity for, and the quality
OF being absorbed by, the purulent mucous
wherever located.
Based upon these plain Theories, DIR.
Wei De Meyers Catarrh Cure has proved
infallible. 1t not only reIeaves, it cures

THE THREAD UPON WHICH TIE DEMO
CRATIC MAJORITY IN THE SENATE
HANGS.


Senator Grover, of Oregon, is
dangerously sick at Wilmington,
Del. 1t is reported that he has
suffered shock of paralysis. The
news of his serions illness, has cx-
cited considerable apprehension in
Democratic circles here, because of
the fact that the Oregon legisla-
ture is Republican, and would
doubtless elect Republican to ELL
his term, which does not expire
until 1888, and because the loss of
another Democratic senator would
endanger the Democratic suprema>
cy in the senate after March 4th,
1881. The senate now stands
torty-three Democrats and thirty
two Republicans, counting David
Davis as a Democrat. In 1881,
the terms of twenty-five senators
cxpirc-fourteen Democratic SEN
ators go out and eleven Republican
senators. Nine Of the Democratic
vacancies. Will doubtless be filled by
Democrats, to-wit: those elected
by Deleware, Maryland, West Vir-
ginia, Florida, Indiana, Missouri,
Tennessee and Texas. In Ohio a
Republican has already been elect
ed, ard Connecticut, New York,
New jersey and Pennsylvania will
probably send Republicans in the
place of their four Democrats now
representing those States. In other
words, the Democrats are almost
five senators, and they will gain
one in Mississippi, where Demo
crat is already elected to succeed
Bruce. Conceeding the Connect
cnt, New York, New Jersey and
Pennsylvania vacancies to the Re
publicans, the State will stand in
1881, thirty-nine Democrats and
tllirty-seven Republican, count
ing Davis as Democrat :; but if
Senator Grover should die and a
Republican be sent to fiji his place,
the senate would stand thirty eight
Democrats and thirty-eight Re
publicans, still counting on Davis
as Democrat, and counting In
diana as shure Democratic State.
From this it may be seen how pre-
carious hold the Democrats have
upon the United States senate, and
how much anxiety is felt by the
Democratic leaders over the coming
senatorial elections, Tho Demo-
Gratis have some hopes of returning
a Democrat from New Jersey, ana
some of getting Democratic SEN
ator in Maine, and it is quite among
the possibilities that the Demo
cratic supremacy in the senate may
depend upon the selection of g

American Mtlionaires.

Probably no city in the world
outside Of London and Paris can
show as much private wealth as
the city of New York. The richest
man ia, England at present is the
Duke of Westminster. His total
income from real and personal es-
tate aggregates aboat S. 100000.
Great as is this income, it does
not come up to tile encome enjoyed
by John Jacob Astor and William
II. Vanderbilt, New York chief mil
lionaires. The Astor fortune ut

not less than S1O0,O00,OOO, while,

be remembered that the eDoImous
wealth of the Rothschilds belongs
to different members of n house or
firm, while William H. Vandesbilh
is practically sole.owner of the great
properties and vast estates be>
queathcd him by his father. Jay
Gould now ranks high among New
| York millionaires. He is estimated
at $25 600, 900, and bids fair, if he
lives 10 or 15 years longer,to double
his present fortune. Taking AL in
all, jay Gould is probably to-day
the shrewdest railroad NAL ager
and the boldest speculative opera
tor in these United States. Edward
II. Green represents another great
railroad fortune estimated at OVER
$50, 100000. He is the chief owner
OF the great louisville and Nash
vile combination. and is said to
practically control that road. Hen

late A. T. Stewart, transferred to
Mr.. Hilton all her interests in the

THE ATTEMPT TO REPUBIICANIZE IN
DIANA ACKNOWLEDGED ON
THE STAND.

The Senate Exodus Coma it, ee
was yesterday enabled through the
testimony of Gen. Thomas ". Con-
way, one of the witnesses whom
Senator Window had brought for
ward, to prove conclusively that
the pegro exodus was scheme to
Republicanize Indiana. Conway,
who was at one time Superintend-
ent Of public instruction in Louis,
lana, but who has recently iutetest
ed himself in Kansas politics, tes-
tilted that he came to Washington
last fall and had conference with
Mr.. Hayes and Zach Chandler.
The result of this was an agree
ment that the tide OF negro emi-
grafton should be turned from
Kansas to Irdiana, Illinois and
Michigan. Conway then went to
Indianapolis and saw John CHEW,
chairman of the Republican State
committee, Judge Martindale and
Col. Holloway, postmaster. They
told him that they could lake care
of 5,0C0 or 10000 negroes in lndi-
ana. The witness then went to
Governor st. j ohn, of Kansas, and
the scheme of coloni3ing the me-
groessia Indiana was explained and
agreed to. Agents weae then sent
South to Cairo and other places
and the negroes induced to turn
their steps towards Indiana, being
told that the Kansas people were
standing on the river banks and
firing At the steamers which car
ried the exodusters. Then he went
back to the Indiana men above
mentioned and reported what lie
had done. Witness was asked why
he had thus persuaded the negroes
to select Indiana as their future
home, and he answered that it was
because Of his love for the Repub
lican party. He thought it would
be benefit to the country to let
that party remain in power, and SO
he Used every means to effect thai
porpose. The Republican party
he thought, was in a higher state
of civilization than the Democratic
1t would therefore be agood idea to
make Indiana Republican. He ac
knowledged havingreceived betwel
$500 and $500 for his services, ant
said be lost 500 by Z,ch Chand
ler's death. His whole testimony
which was given deliberately anC
plainly, caused considerable sensa
ton, giving to the Democratic
members of the com mmittee the very
evidence they have hitherto b.er
vaialy seeking and which they die
not expect to hear from a witness
summoned by the opposite side.-

The N. Y. Sun, independent,
says: The Republican leaders have
DO respect for the great populace.
They look upon the masses as in
capable of thodght and destitute of
memcry. 1t must be so; else how
would they dare to insult them now
by nominating candidate for a
third term in the face of their own
resolutions, unanimously adopted
only Ifonr years ago, declaring their
"unal,erabie" opposition to third
terms They must believe the
people are such fools that they
could be told to-day that black is
white, and tomorrow that1white il
black, without exciting any feeling
distrnst. We have too much re-
spect for the intelligence of tht
HAnerican people to imagine sucl
a thing to be possible. There. ha
never before been such bald, bold

consistency and all principle in tn,

Significant Utteranees.

State Senator Jno. G. Jacobs, of
Brooklyn, permanent president of
the regular New York Democratic
State convention, and who was
chosen one of the delegates at large
to the Democratic National con
yention, has heretofore been a
stanch supporter of Mr.. Tilden and
enjoyed intimate relations with
him ), hence. considerable signif-
cance attaches to some remarks
make by Senator Jacobs. in the
New York senate, Thursday, in a
colloqny with Senator Woodin,
Republican. Said Mr.. JacobsT
''The Republican majority in the
senate need not look for one mo-
ment to Democratic division this
fall if it is necessary to succeed
without Mr.. Tilen. The Democra
cy of this State can get along with
out Mr.. Tilden, and the Democracy
of tire country can get along with
ont him, and if we find it policy to
nominate somebody else, somebody
else will be nominated, because we
mean to viii, in this election. We
| would sooner take very good
Republican who loves his country
better than he does his party and
make him President than submit
Ito the corruptions and abuses OF
the existing government. The
Senator says l have pronounced
myself an anti-Tilden man. If ]
am all anti-Tildcn man it is be-
cause I do not think he can be
elected, apd because I think toe
much of my country, even with the
vencration and love | entertain for
Mr.. Tilden, to support a hopeless
candidacy. | DO not believe for a
single moment that Mr.. Tilder
will be candidate unless he thinks
he can be elected, and I think
can say for the delegation choser
to represent the Democracy of The
State at Cincinnati that a large
majority will oppose the nomlDa-
ton Of any man that they thinf
cannot be elected. Now, you gen
tIemen who wear the collar-i
the name ?-that wear the colla
of Mr.. Conkling, take notice from
MS of the minority that the harmon
lied Democracy are or hand /; tha
they will meet the common enemy
and meet him with a good man, {
noble leader, a true patriot, a mar
devoted to the best interests Of th'
country, and that they will cleo
him, and that when they have cleo
ted him he will take his place a
the head of the government a
Washington. My own individual
opinion to-day is that Tilden is no
the strongest man' but if the con-
. vention think he is, the Democrac.
will support him."

rector's voice, however, shiver of
delight thrilled her heart. She
dared not, at the moment, lift her
eyes,she felt so humbled; but when
she did gather courage, there stood
Frank Penrose, and his ringing
voice was the sweetest music she
had ever heard. And when she
caught his eye she bade farewell to
hope; for she felt then that she
loved him, and had loved him all
along.
At the close of the service he
came to meet them; came quietly,
steadily, smiIingly; this man whom
Nellie had deserted for society and
fashion.

of Wentworth as they drove home.
"Of course"
"Iou might,a least, Lave prepar.

"Why! To keep you from going?

Mothers-in-Law in Guinea,

Among the islanders, marriages
are not made according to the in
clination or by the free choice of
the young people, but at the wish
of the families, who consult their
convenience alone when they
alliance their children, most fie-
quently at a very tender age.
When :he arrangement is complies
ed, the betrothed are forbidden to
associate with each other. The
etiquette which regulates the affair
is rigorous, and presses heavily
upon the little .fances. They are
forbidden to look at each other,
and it is enjoined upon the young
girl SO to arrange matters that her
future husband cannot see her.
When they meet each other on the
road-an accident which cannot
fail to occur occasionally--the girl
who rarely goes out alone, being
warned by her companions, il

Ingratitude.

1t is an OIL! saying, that If you do
man nineteen favors, and for any
reason decline to do him the twen-
tieth, he will forget the nineteen
requests you have granted and only
remember the one yon have re-
fused-and for that refusal will
hate you ever afterward.
This is true Of some men it is
true of men OF mean and narrow
naturcs-but it is not true Of all.
1t is as natural tor noble soul to
cherish lively recollection Of
kindness received as It is to
breathe. And while VIC are often
shocked to sec acts of friendship to'
ward other, which have cost us y
good deal of time and labor, en-
tirely overlooked and forgotten.
we not unfrcquently, on the other
hand, are surprised by the greatful
reciprocation OF some favor long
since rendered. and the verv per
tormance OF which had passed from
onr own recollection, until remind,
ed OF it by the recipient.
We have always regarded grati-
tude as feeling which is hardly
susceptible of being taught to any
ole. A lecture on gratitude, ta
whomsoercr addressed, instead Of
awakening that emotion, is very
apt to engendeY . feeling of iaJig-
nation and hatred. People ncvor

LIGHT BEYOND.

When the heart is filled with yearn1ng
For the friends who are no more
On the tides of life are drifting,
But have reached the farther shore;
Though we know that they nre resting
Safe beyond each stormy wave,
Yet there comes weary craving
For one glimpse beyond the grave.i
Bnt the skies are closed above us,
Dark and voiceless is the grave,
And our prayers seem all unanswcred,-
We forget that God can save,
That He bends in pity DER US,
That He heeds our inmost sigh,
That He hides from us His purpose
Till the shadows have passed by.
For Gods sun is ever shining,
And though clouds may come between,
And the earth grows dark and gloomy,
Yet there's light bshind their screen
When the side next earth seems darkest,
Then that next to heaven is t1ght,
And, in Gods time, rays OF brightness
Will come streaming through the night.
Then, with faith in God our Father,
Let us straightway turn to Him
While earth's weary yearnings vanish
With the clouds of doubt and sin;
And our dear ones will grow nearer,
As our love more perfect grows,
With the love OF God o'ershadowlng
All in measureless repose,
