The anti Conkling men are fellcitating
themselves upon the fact that several
burdens have lately been placed upon
the shoulders of the senior Senator, P"
that may prove to overweight hin. The
recent attempt to provide fund for ex
President Grant and its failure, and his
supposed connection with the Sprague
divorce case, taken together with his
unnecessary antagonism TO the ad
ministration, to say nothing of his sup
posed attempt to dictate terms to the New
York Central Railway and thus prevent
the election Of Depew to the Senate, may
aggregate too great load to be success
fully borne. He has arrived at stage
of the political game when a defeat in
any one of his plans will weaken his
power. and when his grasp upon the
political management of New York is
once loosened, he viii very rapidly lose
the power that he has so long held by
autocratic force Of character and by in
spring his subjects with a wholesome
fear of him and his methods.

England presents very bad REGARD OF
railroad horrora for the past year,
amounting to e31 persons killed out
right and 4,791 wounded. This is a
heavier loss than the English suffered at
many hard fought battle. The excuse
given for this heavy mortality, and the
explanation Of the fact that so many
more persons are injured On railroads
than in this or any other country, is that
English trains move much mere rapidly
than American ones.

that pnbiic taste is Improving. For in

ice at the base of the stone added uncer-

The good housewife, when she is giving
her house its spring renovating, should
bear in mind that the dear inmates of
her house are more precious than many
houses, and that their systems need
cleansing by purifying the blood, regu-
lating the stomach and bowels to prevent
and cure the diseases arising from spring
malaria and miasma, and she must know
that there is nothing that will do it so
perfectly and surely as Hop Bitters, the
purest and best of medicines.--ConcOrd
