ACCORDING to Republican papers it is
seetiOnalism to elect Carlisle Speaker of
the House. He did not serve in the
Confederate army like Malone, Long
street, MOsby, ETC., who are acceptable
to the Republican party and fit for high
position. If Mr.. Carlisle were only a
Republican, and was acceptable to GER
tain lobby and lOgrOlling influences, he
would be all right to the Mahone-Ar-
thur party.

The Alliance Review says we are
''happy over the election of free trade
Carlisle" We take pleasure in assur-
ing our friends of the Review that Car
Isle is not a free trader as his late
speech and former speeches and votes
prove. He is for an honest system of
taxation that will treat all citizens
alike. A revenue tariff with incidental
protection.

-FOUR years ago the Democrats had 10
Governors and the Republicans 10. Now
the Democrats have % Governors and
the Republicans II, and Readjusters 1.
This is the way it stands when about to
enter the Presidential campaign. And
yet Republicans claim the tidal wave is
in their favor!

The average depreciation is greater in the
upper part OF the Ohio Valley and in Kan

belt declining slightly in the lower hti-
part OF the South.

April it was 1O4; i'm 1851. s.. The most
observing reporters have examined the

terror Of the sanctum echo with the sound
Of battle. Two shots were fired at the

Errors Concerning oysters.

In letter 10 the Philadelphia He0tcdt

Of New York, points out some prevalent

tic diastase, has the power Of digesting it.

has given the mOllsk some excellent OPP
pOrtunities of doing so, but it declines to
digest even its own liver. As TO the superior

with oysters instead OF liquors, Dr. Dana
denies the solvent powers OF ale, and
demonstrates the fact that il really hardens
