Whooping cough and Consumption
there is no other remedy SO etlcaci0us,
soothing, and helpful.
Low prices are inducements to try some OF
the many mixtures, or syrups, made of cheap
and ineffective ingredients, now offered,
which. as they contain no curative qualities,
can afford only temporary relief, and are
sure to deceive and disappoint the patient.
Diseases of the throat and lungs demand
active and effective treatment; and it is dan
gerous experimenting with unknown and
cheap medicines, from the great liability that
these diseases may while so trif1ed with,
become deeply seated or incurable. Use
AYERS CHERRY PICTORIAL, and you may
confidently expect the best results. 1t is
standard medical preparation, of known and
acknowledged curative power, and is as
cheap as its careful preparation and fine
ingredients will allow. Eminent physicians,
knowing its composition, prescribe it in their
practice. The test of half century has
proven its absolute certainty to cure all pull
monary complaints not already beyond the
reach of human aid.

This is the tract explored BY John Muir

NEW POLITICAL PARrlEs.

NEW fABhAk1.
In tho opinion Of some OF the wise
men Of the East. It is among the proba-
bilitiss that new Political parties will
soon DO formed by the disaffscted men,
bers Of the two great parties which now
occupy the political field. The old
issues upon which the two great polisi'
cal parties have for many years been
divided are fading away. and it is proba-
bio that one-half Of q people cannot
now give . satisfactory reason why they
are Democrats. or Why they are Rspubl-
cans.
The tariff question. which forty years
ago was one OF the great issues between
the Wing. and Democratic parties. but
which was ovsrshadowed BY issues that
grow out Of our civil war. 10 again ~
suming sufficient prominenos with us to
indicate the probability that ere long
new party divisions may be made upon
1t. The question Ia certainly broad
enough to organize two great national
parties upon.
The question rs to the policy Of pay
Ing the national debt sooner or later Ii
involved in the tariff question, hence
becomes Subsidiary to 1t. as reduction OF
the tariff would necessarily defer psy-
ment OF the national debt.
A radical change in u navigation
laws. by which our nearly dead shipping
interests may be revived, Is also likely
to be demanded. This issue will DO q

secondary perhaps to the tariff question
for the reason that to . great extsnt IL
hinges upon that.
Civil service reform in practice, rather
than theory. may also be made ons OF
the issues upon which the two parties Of
tho future may divide.
It il also probable that questions
growing out Of iho disposal OF the gov.
eminent lands to railroad corporations
may cut o figure in the coming party
divisions.
But. 10 new parties are to be formed
within the next four years. the tariff
question must necessarily DO the princi.
pal issue between them. Many Of our
public men hold that the high tariff sys.

Guiteau-A nice record you'll have,
Reynolds, to come into my cell to get

Scovills pressed the witness closely,
and finally received the answer that the
government paid him for his expenses
while he was having these interviews.
Guiteau-How much

Guitsau-Well, ask him how much he

George D. Barnard, Deputy Clerk Of
the Supreme Court Of Kings county,
New York, took the stand to'prove the
divorce OF Anna j. Guiteau from the
prisoner. The witness presented the
record Of the court and order from the
Judge for his (the witness) attendance
here. Scoville objected to the admission
Of the papers upon the ground they
were not certified to by the Clerk OF the
Court, ns required by Act OF Congress.
Tho Court overruled the objection and
admitted tho papers a. originals In the
case. The papers set forth the grant.
ing Of an absolute divorce upon the
grounds OF adultery, no answer having
been made by defendant. Guitsau. re-
fsrring to the woman named with whom
he had committed adultery. said: "Thia

Ssoville desired to note an exception
to the admission Of the evidence. Gui.
teau said with impatience: "Oh, what
is the use OF quibbling over that. ]

General Reynolds was called. Guitsau
at once broke in pstulan.ly. saying: II
hope you will cut Of Reynolds, and not
waste any moro time on him. Ho told
all he knew about this case, and q good

General Reynolds read from notes he

quoted the prisoners words. He read:
