The wonderful restoring and renovating properties of Hoods Sarsaparilla, combined with it's power to build up the system, eradi- cate scrofula, and cleanse the blood of all humors, make it the best family medicine that can be devised; and as a protection from diseases that originate in changes of the seasons, of climate, and of life, it cannot be excelled.

CONVENTION NOTES.

Concerning O possible hubbub in the con-
vention, one of the cheerful writers on a
Chicago journal pens the following plume of
literature:
"This incident showed the metal of the dis
putants. 1t gave zest to the session. 1t
created new faith that the coming hours are
to be decked with spectacle, and that there
is, under the troubled surface of the half
calm, an element of eruption that will pres
emily mako the building ring with the
frenzy of barbaric enthusiasm. If the
forces, now with difficulty repressed, are so
sensitive to irritation that q small concern
can mako q pandomonum of restless peace,
what will be the wild disorder of entire sur
render when the deliberate act of the final
onslaught occurs? Truly, there is joy ahead
for the devotees Of meodrama. There was q
readjustment Of vital energies with the
withdrawal of the resolution, and sort of
philosophy, sangfroid settled upon the dele.
gates"
One passage of letter written to friend
in Chicago, by Gen. Sherman, under date of
Juno 3, reads

A Fairly Won Victory.

Tho republican national convention just
history of the party. 1t was one of the most
Independent bodies ever brought together.
A great majority of tho delegates were left
free by their constituencies to vote as their
Judgments might dictate. The direction of
tho current Of popular favor was unmistaka-
bly, toward Mr.. Blaine, but the weight of the
conservative thought of the party was against
his nomination. There was no concentra.
ton upon a candidate to beat him, however,
while Mr.. Blaines sup. ..Cers were en-
thusiastic and aggressive in their determine
tion to win.
The delegates who composed the conven-
tion very correctly represented the senti-
ment of the voters who elected them. The
anti. Blaine delegates were in majority, but
they could not fuse and the strong person
atty of Mr.. Blaine broke through and demol.
ished the lines of the opposition, sweeping
everything before it and winning in spite OF
bad management. The tremendous force was
irresistible. 1t gathered power as
it progressed, and four ballots ended the
battle. The fight was furious while it lasted
but it was Of short duration, and it was diff
ferent in spirit from any ever waged in
previous republican national conventions
There was less of desperate determination
less logged earnestness to carry out ar
agreed programme, and more of the electri
cal flash and hurrah.
Four days sufced to transact the business
that brought the convention together The
preliminary action was remarkably free from
disputes. The machinery moved without thu
slightest friction, and, although there were
periods of great excitement and tumult, the
proceedings were characterized by spirit o
fair play that leaves no room for complaint
The result was disappointment to many
but it must be admitted by all that the vic
tory was fairly won.
President Arthurs friends stood by hin
with conspicuous fidelity, but it was not hi
year.

Blaine and Logan.


As the candidate of the republican party you will
have my earnest and cordial support.-Chestcr A.
1rthUT.
These msgnanimous aud noble words,
uttered by President Arthur to James G..
Blaine by telegram to Augusta Immediately
after the news had arrived that the latter
mad defeated the former for the presidential
nomination, express the sentiments which
should inspire every republican from this
day to the election in November.
The question is not one of men, but of
measures; not a personal issue, but one Of
policy. Shall the republican party, with its
principles Of free speech, individual sover-
eighty, protection of homo industry, aud tho
laboring man govern the nation from 1885 to
1850, or shall the bourbon democracy domi-
nate the country, suppressing freedom and
free utterances, trsmpling upon individuals.
submitting to the rulo of a few arrogant
and Anticipated negro haters, and sacrificing
the diversified occupations and the comfort
and prosperity of tho American workmen to
give profits to the English, French, and Ger
man manufacturers, who employ only paupor
workmen and pay them only starvation prices {?
Before this issue mon arc nothing, princi-
pies are everything. President Arthur,
known to be wise, considcrate, patriotic, sure
of the electoral vote of New York, would
have been the best candidate. No doubt
would for moment have been felt concern.
ing his election.
But James G. Blaine has been fairly nomi-
mated. The supreme duty of every patriot
is to labor for his election. Magnetism and
enthusiasm will not do the work. But such
loyalty to tho party as President Arthur has
manifested, followed by earnest and cordial
labor, will give success.
There is no excuse for boiling. The inde-
pendents who voted for Edmunds could have
nominated Arthur instead of Blaine. They
preferred the latter, and nominated him by
their persistency. If any men are bound to
support Mr.. Blaine, George William Curtis.
Andrew ID. White, and Theodore ID. Roosevelt
"AS 'tANo SOAAAAibbSuJ luz W tubHl no owes MS
nomination in fair convention. Let them
now rally grandly and nobly to his support,
and give him the victory. President Arthur
has shown his selfsacrifce and devotion to
the party of freedom and progress. Let
these pure and heroic idealists, proud of their
defeat of Clayton and their nomination of
Blaine, throw their souls into the great con-
test before the people, and give victory in
November to the ticket of Blaine and Logan.
Gen. Logan has an unblemshed record as
n soldier and statesman. He was one Of
the bravest of the brave during the dark
days of tho rebellion, and his reputation as a
stainless and incorruptible representative of
the people in the halls Of congress is world
wide. He is man the American people can
point to with pride. There is not public
man of prominence in either party to-day
with better record than Gen. Logan. He
adds strength to the ticket. The tail will
not drag.

What church did Blaine atteud2'
He attended tho Presbyterian church
while here. His mother was devout Catholic
and one of tho best women that ever lived. No
one was more highly esteemed by her neigh
bors, nor could any mother be more con.
scientious or exemplary in hor life. He
always had deep respect for his mothers
religion, but never in all our talks did no
show any Affection for it.n

Now THAT our democratic brethren know
tho size of the job their republican opponents
have prepared for them to confront at tho
polls they will have leisure to turn their at
tention to matters of lively interest in con-
.nection with their own coming convention
For instance, it is reported that MI. Henri
Watterson has roaring free.trade plank
ready for insertion in their platform, and it
will certainly puzzle the leaders of the party
to devise means of suppressng the brilliant
aud determined Kentuckian without dis
rupting struggle.

A LOUISIANA legislative committee has

knows what to do with she might sell some
of it and employ the proceeds in strengthen
ing her levees instead of giving it away in
the shape Of rewards for treason.
