The New York Convention.

Richfed Springs Special
The convention was the first ever held by the
Republicans In the State of New York without a
quarrel, a contest or dissension. 1t c osed with
the old party divisions practically closedup, and
an apparent complete obliterati0n of the stal-
wart and halfbreed party lines The delegates
went home satisfied with the condition OF their
party, nearly solid in the new faith that Arthur
is the coming man. They certainly departed
more solid in the Arthur movement than they
have been in any other party movement for six
years past. Both Senators Lapham and Miller.

The Personal in Journalism.

Richmond Independent
Subscribers who buy papers want to read
something more edifying and instructive thau
this style OF personal wrangling and spite. Let
each paper attend to its own business and III
will have enough TO DO, without making attacks
upon other papers OF calling them by absurd
names to bring them into rldicuie with the pub
lie. There should be journalistic courtesy
that would prevent such proceedings, as mono
know better than Journalists themselves how
widely such injuries spread, and how bitter are
their results.

JUDGE ToURGEE, editor of the Continent,
in the number dated for September &c, replies
as follows to an inquiry from subscriber
as to the probable verdict OF history upon
the administration of President Arthur
SIN reply to your inquiry allow me to say
that believe, all things considered, the adj
ministration of President Arthur will be re-
garded as one of the most remarkable in our
history. Called to administer the affairs
OF people exasperated and heart-sore over
the sutferings of his predecessor, he has
Gained their rage and inaugurated period
more quiet and dispassionate in its consid-
Grafton of public questions than has been
known in half century. Tainted, reviled,
maligned, he has made no answer
nor renonstrance, but has pursued
the path OF public duty with
unruffled serenity. He has frankly stated his
own views of public questions, and when
overruled by the Congress, has yielded quiet
ly, not seeking to force policy of his own
upon the country, nor clamoring because his
views did not prevail. When majority OF
his own party have favored what he disap-
perpormed his duty faithfully, and neither
of the press has he thrust himself or his
views upon the people That he has made
mistakes there is no doubt, but they have
not been numerous nor such as are likely to
entail serious ill upon the republic. He has,
in short, performed the onerous duties unex-
pectedly devolved upon him with a modera-
ton, sagacity and modesty rarely equaled,
and perhaps never surpassed, in the position
he occupies"

sis not changed by the fact that it is woman
who undertakes it. 1t may be done better,
more delicately, more shrewdly, more honestly,
but 1T is the same work and requires the same
qualities, whether he wo rker be man or woman.

so there are branches which would not be
agreeable for women. But there is enoug h

II have been troubled fora good many years with
Inflammation of the bladder, dating as far back 40 dur.
ing the time l was in the army. I suffered with dull,
heavy pains In the back and Kidneys too intense for
me to describe, and tried several remedies that were
recommended. and was examined by one Of our best
physicians, who pronounced it Of the
bladdcr; and l went to the hospital for treatment, but
allmcdicinc and treatment had seemed to fail. I was
to try Hunts Remedy, az it had been
used in several such cases here in Portland and vicini.
ty. purchased a bottle at Smiths drug store here,
and found after using the first bottle that 1t relieved
me greatly, and after using several bottles found that
it did me more good than all other medicines and treat
ment 1 have received combined. And to add to my
good opinion of Hunts Remedy, I beg to state in clos
ing that my wife has been for a long time troubled With
q weakness and of the bladder, with Q
complication of other diseases peculiar to women.
After using only two bottles she has been completely
cured; and I can say that my wife is loud IN praise Of
this wonderful medicine. and l would highly recon-.
mend it to all who are suffering from kidney diseases
or diseases of the bladder"

When you harvest cabbages do not
cave the stumps in the field or throw
them on the compost heap. Either

tablespoonful of butter. Bake about

The best results from wood ashes
are secured by adding a small proper
ton OF common salt. Ashes contain all
the mineral elements of the plant, and
they exert a good influence in unlock

the chlorine it contains is carried of

Charcoal is highly recommended as

clpe for its use appears: 1.-THE charcoal
should be given mixed with the food ex-
cept in urgent cases, when it NAV be
mixed in water or thin cruel and given
rs a drench. The dose is one pint to
every twenty-five head of sheep or
lambs; one-quarter pint per head for
full-grown cattle, horses or pigs; half
the quantity for young cattle, and two
~teaspoonfuls to one dessertspoonful for
young calves"
Steamed Cod or Haddock: Take a
fish of four or five pounds; dress it
nicely; put its tail in its mouth, and
skewel it there. Place it on a platter,
season high with pepper and salt, turn
half a pint of vinegar over, it, and let it
stand an hour in a cool place. Then
pour off the vinegar, place the fish in a
steamer, set it owe a large kettle OF
boiling water, and steam for thirty min.
utes. When cooked, the flesh will part
from the bone easily; try it with a knife
before taking it up. Serve on napkin,

eggs, picked beet and sprigs of pars.
