Is This Fossil ble!

Report comes. that General Grants inn proved condition is due to the fact that he is using "simple vegetable preparation" forwarded by one of our consuls from South America, and sent him by the Surgeon-Gen- eral! Is this possible! By an "unauthor- ized" remedyl Shockingl
 And yet if this ''simple vegetable prepara- ton" were owned and advertised by anyone as specific for this terrible disease certain ly the Surgeon General would not commend it; nor would bigoted physicians prescribe it
 Nevertheless, it is fact that many of the best proprietary medicines of the day, as the late Dr. J. G. Holland stated in Scribner's Monthly, were more successful than many physicians, and most of them, it should be remembered, were at first discovered or used in actual medical practice. When, how ever, any shrewd persons, knowing of their virtue and foreseeing their popularity, secured and advertised them, then, in the opinion of the bigoted, all virtue went out of them
 Isn't this absurd
 We believe that remedy, if properly made, is just effective when put up, ,adver- tised and sold in bulk, as when doled out to patients at enormous expense by their phy- sicians.
 Why not '
 If General Grant is getting better through thesimple unauthorized vegetable prepara- ton where is the vaunted skill of the medi- cal profession
 Apropos of the suspension of some very prominent members by the Medical and Chi rugical faculty of Maryland, for endorsing advertised remedies, the Baltimore American (April 25) says that "when patent medicine goes on year after year widening it's circle of believers, it is pretty fair evidence that there is merit in it. The regular doctors may ignore it, and expel any of their mem- bers who may use it, but when they do so their action looks more like envy against successful remedy than true desire to pro tect the public" The failure in the Garfield and Grant eases, the American thinks, and properly, has knocked professional preten- tions higher than kite.
 But this is not 8 singular instance of un- professional power over ssincurable diseases. |" That" simple vegetable preparation ''nowevery where known as Warmers Safe Cure was once an authorized remedy; was pronounced agod send" to the medical profession for the cure of kidney and liver disorders, mala- ria, general debility, spring feebleness, fe- male irregularities, etc., by many leading physicians, but when the formula was fully perfected, and the medicine was put up in bulk and advertised so that every sufferer might know of it and treat himself, then the profession turned upon it and let their patients die rather than to use it!
 This is certainly strange proceeding, but it is on level with all the rules and regu- lations of code which has gone 80 far as to forbid 8 physician displaying beyond cer- tain size his name and profession upon his signi
 But the world moves, and merit wins the fight ltd & wk

LACK OF CONFIDENCE.

LACK OF CONFIDENCE.
 It is reported that the President is getting s'tired." There are signs that he is getting very tired, almost as tired, indeed, as some of his fellow Democrats who have waited long in the hope that he would notice them. It appears that the President has found out him. The Congressmen. trouble him. They arrange to have such appointments made as will suit them. The President never heard of the men they tell him are suitable No one is in Washington to tell him if they are unsuitable. The people who should advise him correctly are in the scheme, and others, unless it js particularly bad case, are not going up to the White House to pick up 8 fight without honor or profit. The man is named. Those who know him, and who, perhaps, if they had thought he was in a way to be selected, would have remonstrsted, proceed to show how unfit the person is
 Secretary Bayard is also much disturbed. From Minister Kelley down to Meiere, his latest consular appointment, bad luck has pursued him. Meiere is a man who within a month has been in the station house in Washington for making a gross attack on old Commodore Truxton, and is notorious about all the lounging places in Washing ton blatant person who is always boast of his service in the rebel cause. But he is indorsed by the Democrats of his State. The Secretary takes their word, only to find himself terribly deceived.
 The reliable Washington correspondent of the Boston Advertiser says that both the President and Secretary Bayard are growing extremely distrustfu1 of the swarm of Con- gressmen who futter around them, and on whose recommendations most of the recent appointments have been made. As whole, continues the correspondent, they do not ap- pear to possess the slightest feeling of re- sponsibility for the confidence shown in &C., cepting their suggestions. ''This is so bad that the rule is to be followed of inquiring into the character of applicants entirely out side of Congressional indorsement With that end in view, correspondence will be had with Democrats who have no axes to grind and can be relied upon to tell the truth about men who want office. The remark made by the Presidents friend, Assistant Secretary Fairchild, to the effect that all applicants for office should be published in order that the facts might be known concerning them, was the reflection of what the President said af- ter the egregious Pillsbury- Chase mistake happened: T wish that the newspapers would let me know these things before the appointments are made'"
 If the President is convinced that some of his friends will bear watching he has learned something that may be useful to him. As a result of his distrust it is said that the move ment on the part of Massachusetts and Maine Democrats to have certain other changes made has come to standstill, and certain statesmen in that vicinity have their names in prominent positions on the list which lies handy in the Presidents private drawer. This list is of men whose advice MT. C1evo- land will hereafter follow only with the most rigid scrutiny

 There is, at the present time, in the French savings banks the sum of 100, ,O0O, ,O00 pounds sterling. This alone shows what the genius of this country is, economy. The sevings banks are patronized only by workmen, ser wants and small shopkeepers. The peasant prefers investing his savings in land and cattle, something to look at for his money; and the bourgeois buys rentes or bonds guar anteed by the government, but everyone puts by for old age or the proverbial rainy day. It is curious to reflect that the servants and workmen of France could have paid out of their wages half the enormous war indemnity that Prince Bismarck exacted from their country fourteen years ago.

 According to 8 bill now pending in the Massachusetts legislature, and likely to be enacted, the citizens of all towns and of four cities will be authorized to tax themselves for local purposes at their discretion; the citizens of other cities, excepting Boston, will be permitted to tax themselves for such durposes only up to certain fixed limit, in their right of self-taxation to 8 rate still lower. heright of contracting debts is also varied in like manner by the same bill.

 On the subject of color blindness 8 core spondent of the Pall Mall Gazette has some thing to say which deserves attention. He writes: A very large proportion of the cases of so-called color-blindness is, I am con- vinced due to ignorance, and, in confirmation of this opinion, there is the undoubted fact that it is rarely found in examination of female candidates. If color-blindness is an organic defect of the visual apparatus, surely it ought to exist in somewhere about the oo4AO A1cAo HI oAO AAAesAo tAAANA AS1AAAO' NASA for moment deny the existence of genuine color blindness; but do contend that the genuine defect is rare one.

 That is horrible case of wholesale poison ing at Leyden which has come before the Criminal court of The Hague. The prisoner is woman of forty-six, named Van de Lin den She is married and has several chil- dren- It appears that since 1869 she has at tempted to poison no less than 102 persons. and that she tried to poison everybody who came in her way. It is proved that she killed twenty-seven of her victims, and that forty-fve others became dangerously ill. Six times she endeavored to poison one of her sisters-inlaw. The prisoner, however, is in dicted for murdering three persons only. The public prosecutor maintains that the motive of the criminal was the obtaining money which insurance societies would have to pay in case of illness or death.
