The Effect of Cold on the Aged.

The obituary of the London TINES o.

average Of Sc years and more than elgn'
months to each. The oldest was gen.

The opening paper was read by DR.. Carpen-
ter Of Crab Orchard, on Duodenal Catarrh,
its Concomilanis and Treatment, which was
listened to with much interest, and favora-
bly, commented upon by several members.
Then rambling debate ensued upon the
diseases peculiar to children during the
Summer months, and during the discus
sion Of which the fact was elected that
doctors do differ, and we suppose, will
continue to differ in judgment whilst "Life
is short, art long, opportunity ileeting,
experiment slippery, judgment difficult"
These are the first words Of the Medical
Aphorisms Of the wise lIippocratesi they
were set down Ms significant sign at the
porch Of the benevolent science Of healing
more than 800 years before the Christian
Era, and they remain still very wise text.

facts respecting the modern treatment Of
this affection, and about the importance

MARSHALL JEWELL, Chairman of
the National Republican Committee,
in telegrapbing his congratulations to
cold S29," said that the result of the
Ohio election was complete refuta-
ton of the SANDER upon his Gar
field's) good name, which has been
the entire stock in trade of the Demo
cratic campaign. The ISLANDERS.
such as Mr.. Jewell chooses to call
them. are nothing more nor less than
the publication of the report
of the Republican investigating
committee, which found that Garfield
got 1929 in dividends from the Credit
Mobilier business, notwithstanding he
swore that the money he got from
Cakes Ames was a loan, and that
the IS, 0O0 he took from the DeGol-
yer payment concern was a sale of his
official influence and bride of the
worst sort. Convicted of perjury and
bribe-taking by his O party, it is
rather thin for Mr.. Jewell to term n
recital of the facts ISLANDERS" aud If
the Republican party can support a
man with such a record, it adds an
other proof OF its own rottenness and
infamy.

SOMETIME since, the Patterson On.
j. Guardian published an interview
with Gen. Hancock, in which he was
made to say that the tariff was local
question that the government seldom
cared to interfere with. The inter
viewer now states that he was mis-
taken in the language used by the
General, and made a blunder in quoting
from memory that which was not in-
tended for publication. Hancock has
since expressed himself fully on the
tariff question in a published letter,
but we hope the General will stop
writing letters while he has the repu-
taiion of being the champion writer
of the world.

10 ,he Congressional committee.

STANFORD, KY, OCr. %, 1880.
TO he County Committees 'cho are,
BY Virtue Of Their office, Members q
The Congressional Coamitice: = GEN.
TLEMEN: 1t has been ascertained
that the Republicans intend to nomi.
nate candidate for Congress at Dan
vile tonight. The postponement Of
such action by them till so short a
time before the election is evidently
done for the purpose of lodging dis
cussion of the public issues of the day,
their dependence being entirely in the
''siill hunt" plan of conducting a can
vass and the liberal use of money fur
nished by the Republicans of the
North, who, encouraged by their sue
cess in Indiana, have promised to sup
ply any amount necessary. There is
but little need Of fear that such a
course adopted by them could win
from us this District-especially when
we have as true, tried and competent
a standard bearer as Hon. Phil b.
Thompson, Jr. ,butitis ourduty to leave
nothing undone to bring out a full
Democratic vote. Therefore | sug-
gest that you appoint subcommittee
in each precinct, who will labor to
that end, and arouse the people TO
the importance of the hour. Local
speakers should be put 10 work and
every honorable means used to roll up
a majority even greater than was
given in the District in 1878, when
it was over LOO. A thorough or
gauization will accomplish this, and
if il has not already been effected, ]
trust that these suggestions will be at
once acted on.
