A great deal of good humOred
wit has been spent upon DIR. BossO
the so-called " Italian Magician p
who lately jOurneyed to Pensacola
to give the fever stricken the ben.
eft of his experience i'm preven'
ting and curing the dread disease,
OF what the doctors prescription
consisted, no one knows, but GER
tain it is in spite of all the ridieule
and contempt shown him by the
profession, he has managed to
make his way in Pensacola, and
papers are now calling on the med
ical fraternity to confer whit him
and make themselves familiar
with his medicine and treatment.
If DR.. Bosso is a quack, this fact
is very strange, and still stranger is
another fact, that he was sincere
enough to venture himself Into the
pestilence haunted city, to test the
merits of his remedies. Nay, more
he has met with such success and
is so confident of the preventive
power Of his medicine that he sent
for his wife and children to join
him in Pensacola, and the little
party left Mobile for that place
Sunday. Of him and his practice
the Pensacola Commercial of Fri.
day says:
On the principle of "give the
devil his due,r we are constrained
to say that DR.. Bosso has furnish
the most incontestble pro0fo of be-
ing possessed of "a secret in the
healing art, which has already ac-
complished a vast deal of good, and
seems destined to prove a bless
ing to the human race. We have
heretofore refrained from making
any mention of man who was re-
garded by the medical faculty as a
quack, but since he has demon
strated beyondperadventure that
there is virtue IN his medicine, it
appears to us that in the interest
of the community and of humanity
it is incumbent upon the physi-
clans Of Pensacola to confer with
this gentleman and familiarize
themselves with his medicine and
treatment. 1t is due to themselves
it is due to science-it is due to
the human race.

An English Historian on States
Rights.

On such questions as eivil-ser-
vice reform, finance, and free
trade Mr.. Freeman found that the
division of opinion did not follow
the regular cleavage of parties,n p
and he says that it was easier for
him to grasp the distinction be-
tweena a stalwart Republican and
one who was not a stalwart, than
to see the immediate difference be-
tween Republican and a Demo-
crat. Most English travellers, af
ter such an experience, would jump
to the conclusion that there aetu-
ally was none; but this trained his
tOrian, accustomed to look below
the mere surface of hastily express
ed opinion, sees that there is such
a difference " which may easily be.
come as real as the distinction be.
tween Tory ..and Radical, Legiti-
mate and Republican" rand he adds
that "should any question ever
again arise as to the respective
powers of the Union and of the
States, it is easy to see which side
each party would take"
Having thus looked beneath the
outer covering of carelessness and
ignorance and seen the vital differ
ence dividing the men of intelli-
gence and conviction in the two
parties, Mr.. Freeman goes OH to
discuss the question thus: | may
speak on this matter as one who
has made the nature of Federal
government an object of special
study. 1t strikes me that as the
doctrine ofStates rights was push.
ed to a mischievous extreme TWEEN.
ty years and more ago, so there is
now danger of the opposite doe
trine being pushed to mischiev-
ous extreme. The more look ut
the American Union the more con-
vinced | am that so vast a region
taking in lands whose condition
differs so widely in everything, can
be kept together only by federal
system, leaving large dependent
powers in the hands of tho sever
al States. No single Parliament
could legislate, no single govern
ment could administer, for Maine,
Florida and California. Let these
States be left to a great extent in
dependent, and they may remain
united on those points on which it
is we'll that they should Icmain
united. To insist on too close an
union is the very way to lead to
lead to separation"

A Malone Victory.


Richmond special: Mrs. Gen.
Pickett, widow of the late Gen.
Pickett, of Confederate States
Army fame, is lying desperately i'll
at the Exchange hotel here. and is
reported dying tonight. More
than a year ago some of the old
classmates of her husband who
had been with him in the regular
army, used their influencend got a
her a clerkship in Washington,
which she held until a few months
since, when she was turned out Dy
Malone's influence. Since that
time she has been in this city, un.
til stricken down by sickness three
weeks since. 1t is understood
that she was mainly dependent
upon her salry for support.
Among the most remarkable
echoes is that of Eagles Nest, on
the banks of Killarney, in Ireland
which repeats a bugle's call until
it seems sounded from hundred
instruments, and that..on the banks
of Naha, between Bingcn and Cob
lentz, which repeats a sound sew
enteen tunes. The most remarka-
bic artificial echo known is that in
the Castle of Simonetta, about
two miles from Milan. 1t is ocea-
stoned by two parallel walls of con.
siderable length. 1t repeats the
report of pistol sixty times.

Montana Territory has a popu-
lation of $4,000, though it is larger
in area than amy other political di-
vision of the country. 1t is esti-
mated that it had one inhabitant to
every three miles Of territory, and
somebody ..facetiously suggests
that the people out there must be
dreadfully lonely. But it has near
as large a population as Nevada,

and Representative in Congress

New York Tribune on Mahoneism.

These are serious m alters. The
old attempt to govern the South
by aunion of the carpetbag ele-
ment with the negroes has largely
failed. But the attempt to put their
vote under the control of the desp.
eradoes of the south is ominous of
evil, There is no moral strength
to such u movement. 1t is inher-
emily and inevitably bad-bad for
the Republican party in the South
bad for 1t in the North, bad for the
negro, bad for the country. Among
the class called carpetbaggers
there were some of the best of
men, honorable and to be honored.
Their failure was not due to lack
of personal character, but to cans.
ses entirely beyond it, and they
have earned such regulations for
courage, self-sacrificc and devo-
ton to liberty of which the most
honored statesman might well be
proud. If politically weak, they
were morally strong, To take a
new departure and accept for Re-
publican leaders in the South men
so bad that they were even forced
out of the Democratic party, is a
blunder so deplorable and withal
so stupid that no previous Repub.
lican administration could ever
possibly commit it. Should not a
halt be calleds

the recommendations of the com.

es in the existing tariff will be re
commended.
