THE PRESIDENTIAL VOTE.

Horse Paper the esprit of the Times'')
Finally Settles the Vexed Question of the
Plurality Business in Favor of Garfield
by 3,522.
New YORK, March 31.-The Spirit of the
Times says: We announced several weeks
since that owing to unexpected discrepancies
in the footings of the popular vote for Presi-
dent in various political almanacs we were IN
able, even at this late day, to decide whether
Garfield or Hancock had a plurality in the
country. Relying upon the first almanac re-
ceived by us-and we are obliged to depend
upon these text books for political statistics
we had to decide to the effect that Garfield
had small plurality, but a
few days after the appearance of
that issue we were staggered by table
from the Cincinnati Enquirer showing plu-
rality for Hancock of 8,706, and further doubt
was cast upon our first authorities by the ap-
pearance of later almanacs giving the Demo-
cratic candidates small plurality. In the
meantime we were flooded with questions on
the point. No two compilations of the vote
termined TO address the several secretaries of

THE BUSINESS OUTLOOK.

Falling OFF For the First Quarter of the
Year as Compared With 1880, But Pros
poets For the Spring Trade Decidedly
EncOuraging-Few Failures.
New YORK, April 1.-Bradstreet says reports
from seventeen trade and industrial centers
throughout the United States, point out the
volume of business done in the first quarter of
the current year had not only failed to
meet expectations, but has fallen behind
that transacted during the correspond
ing portion of 1880 The unusual
severity and lingering character of the winter
weather, together with lack of traDsporta-
ton facilities have combined to produce this
result. gratifying increase in the number
of orders received is announced, in ma
jorty of instances, the exceptions noted in
certain branches of business at Boston, Provi-
dence, Rochester and Galveston. On the
whole, however, the outlook indicates brisk
business during the spring months and the
general feeling is one of confidence.
Reports OF failures throughout the United
States and Canada the past week, l12, the
smallest number of any week the past two
months. Preceding week 1873. The improve
ment is generally distributed over the Middle,
New England and Western States. In the
South there had been slight increase.

Piles are frequently preceaed by sense of
weight in the back, loins and lower part of
the abdomen, causing the patient to suppose
he has some affection of the kidneys or neigh
boring organs. At times symptoms of in
digestion are present, as fatulency, uneasiness
of the stomach, etc. A moisture like pers-
piration, producing very disagreeable itch
ing, particularly at night after getting warm
in bed, is a very common attendant.
Internal, external and itching piles
yield at once on the application of
DR.. Bosanko's Pile Remedy, which acts
directly upon the parts affected, absorbing
the Tumors, allaying the intense itching and
effecting permanent cure where all other
remedies have failed. Do not delay until the

These have been carefully checked with the
totals. The footings are accurate, and it may
be now cons idered as established for the first
time that the actual plurality of Garfield over
Hancock, based on a comparison of the high
est vote given for an elector of each party,
and each State, as 1892, neither more or less.
This may be accepted as an answer to the
very numerous questions we have received on
this subject, as it will be accorded by the

.vexed question. There are political lessons to
be drawn from the fact Of so small plurality
in SO immense a vote, which we leave to 9TH
