The BLOOD CLEANSER.
BILI0USNESS.

Bilious symptoms invariably
arise from indigestion, such as
furred tongue, vomiting of bile,
giddiness, sick headache, iP-
regular bowels. The liver Sc
cretes the bile and acts like q
filter or sieve, to cleanse impu-
rites Of the blood. By irregu-
larity in its action or suspen-
sions Of its functions, the bile
is liable to overflow into the
blood, causingjaundice, sallow
complexion. yellow eyes, bill
ious diarrhea, a languid,
weary feeling and many other
distressing symptoms. Bilious
ness may be properly termed
an affection Of the liver, and
can be thoroughly cured by the
grand regulator Of the liver
and hillary organs, BURDOCK
BLOOD BITTERS. Act upon the
stomach, bowels and liver,
making healthy bile and pure
blood, and opens the culverts
and sluiceWays for the outlet
Of disease. Sold everywhere
md guaranteed to cure.

ing and addressing his remarks TO the
Journal reporter, that the case Oh
that man has worked on my mind more
than all the other applications for par
don that have been presented TO HE
during my entire term. l hrst becaine
acquainted with the case three years
ago when | was at JeffersonviIle. war
den Howard called my attention TO MIN
whilo | was on visit to the prison.
He had Just made an attempt at sui
eide, and had frightful cash in his
throat. | asked him if he had any
friends that might interest himself In
his behalf, and the question surprised
him. He answered that he did not
know soul in the world outside OF the
prison where he had been for thirteen
years. There is one man. said he sad
", who may remember me. II he IS
still living. but he is the onl one L
know The man was big. fine
looking fellow, not having the express
sion or look of a criminal at all, and
| became greatly impressed with him.
He told me of the crime for which he
was prisoner, and referred me to the
man mentioned to substantlate his
story. He had been employed on a
railroad contract. and while resenting
the abusive treatment of the man in
charge of the set in which he was
working, he used small penknife with
fatal effect. but without any intention
of killing his adversary. He was utter
ly friendless, while the man he killed
was well known, and the case was
prosecuted with vigor by the ablest
lawyer III Clark county. The result
was his conviction, and for sixteen
years he has been prisoner. He was
little more than a boy, and in time was
lost sight of entirely, and probably no
one outside of the prison ever remem-
bered that he had ever had an exist
ence. | had him removed to the
Michigan City prison, and took the
trouble to hunt up the man whose
name he had given. finally found him,
and from him heard the story OF the
killing, even more favorably than
Crawford had told me himself. There
was no one 10 apply for pardon for
him. but the case appealed to me so
strongly, that for three years l have
been considering whether it was not
best to set him free in the absence of
anv petition. | never had any case
work on my mind as this one did, and
it seemed impossible to drive it away.
The other night as l lay doing titfully
but unable to sleep, that mans figure
appeared at the foot of my bed, and
could see the face as plainly as | see
yours now. | shut my eyes and tried
to think of something else, but when |
opened them again, there stood Craw-
ford, the most beseeching and reproach-
full look imaginable on his face. And
there it remained until | made up my
mind. i will issue that pardon, |
cried, fully resolved to do so. and that

Under the caption of Who will the
Leader be?' the Ohio State Journal has
given the opinions OF the chairmen of the
various Republican county committees as
to the preferences in their localities for
governor, and as TO wha; should be the
character of the platform. We think that
Mr.. Rabbits has pretty correctly given
the situation here in the following:
Springfeld-I turned your cOmmunica-
ton over to j., hn W. Parsons, my sue
cessor as chairman Foraker has strong
following here, but considerable opposi-
ton has developed toward him on the part
OF colored people. General Beatty is in
large favor; also Kennedy. Think the
Judgment OF our people regarding platform
would be to let the Democrats solve the
liquor problem and Republicans remain
silent, or only speak to charge response
biIity on the Democrats.-LJ. II. Rabbits

PoRrEK's CRY FOR JUSTICE.

Fitz John Porters everlasting cry for
Justice has broken out again. He wrote
letter to the president last October, which
has lust been sent in on the call of a
house resolution and published to the
country. appealing to him to reconsider
his reasons for vetoing the bill which was
passed for Porters restoration to the
army, and to re-appoint and nominate him
to suitable vacancy that may exist or oc-
cur in the army.
Mr.. Porter makes pathetic cry. He
thinks he has been cruelty wronged The
court-martial that tried him did not think
so. The loyal people OF the United States
do not think so. They believed and be-
lieve that he could not lay his hand on his
heart aid truthiully declare his inno-
cence OF anv secret desire that General
John Pope might be beaten in the battles
that he had rushed into with pronun-
ciamentoes that officers of the Porter
stamp regarded as insults. His conduct
may be explained ever so plausibiy by
dates and diagrams subsequently fur
nished by the rebel records; it
was the motive Of this man Por-
ter. as evidenced by his words
and behavior al the time, that made him
amenahle 10 court-martial and showed him
guilty OF such intention as the articles of
war punish with death.
The court-martial found that Fitz-John
Porter wanted to spite John Pope, his su-
perior officer, and that this spite was the
mctire OF his disohedience of that officers
orders This disobedience and the motive
OF it would have justified the shooting OF
Fitz-John Porter Such are the stern, yet
necessary, rules of war. But mercy was
shown Mr. Porter. He was cashiered in
disgrace from the army. 1t was a mild
sentence.
But he has succeeded in showing, 20
congress filed with Confederate br ga
diers, and from facts furnished by Conted
crate archives, that, if be had obeyed his
superior officer on that memorable occa-
sion, the result would have been disas-
trous. o, just so. But suppose that is
admitted, which ii is not by many military
experts; how does that remove the guilt
of his intention-which is really the guilt
itselt2 The circumstances prove that Mr..
Porter was willing to sacrifice the cause
of the country to spite John Pope. He
deserved to be shot for it.
But, instead of being grateful to the
country for sparing his life, he has been
appealing to the country through all these
years for restoration to honors and emolu-
ments. 1t is one of the highest COM
mendations OF this Republican administra-
ton that he has appealed in vain.
All the Confederates and lit must be
contesseG) some sott-shelled Republicans
weep over Fitz John Porter's wrongs; and
it is likely that, when the Contederacy
comes into possession OF the government,
the Democratic president will send Por-
ter's name in for vindicstion. But the
Republican senator who shall vote for his
confirmation will not represent, but will
misrepresent, the overwhelming majority
of his constituency in any state, and will
be marked for future reference.

His dcathhlow struck him. there I'm the RANKS
There in the ranks, with his face to the foe:
Did his dying lips utter curses or thanks?
No one will know.
Still he marched on. he with the rest
Still he marched on with his face TO the foe,
To the days bitter business sternly addrest:
Dead-did they know
when the day was over, the fierce fight done.
His checks were red with the sunsets glow,
And they crowned him there with their laurels
won:
Dead-dd he know?
Laurcls or roses, all one to him now
What TO a dead man is glory glow?-
Rose wrcaths for love, or a crown on his brow:
Dead-does he know?
And yet you will see him march on with the
rest
No man of them all makes a goodicr show
In the thick of the tumult jostled and prest:
Dead-would you know?

We think it will be evident to the Re
publican committee that the system Of
nominating city officers by primary cleo
ton is not in favor with the Republican
party, as party, of this town. If the
committee would reflec: the best sentiment
of the party, it must adopt some other
method of nomination. The disinterested
men who are anxious for the success of
Republicanism in Springfield and for a
good municipal government under its
auspices are almost universally opposed to
that method. We hope that the commit
tee will devise some means of putting in
nomination the men who can command
the strength of the party. We commend
to them the suggestions of the various
gentlemen whose opinions we gave in
yesterdays GLoBE-REPUBLIc.

reporter says: In spite of the absolute
ly overwhelming testimony proving
that vaccination. properly performed
and repeated As required, is 4 preven-
tive OF smallpox as complete as can
be desired, and that its i'll effects are so
rare and so slight that they do not have
the weight of Il feather in comparison,
there are yet blind agitators who OPP
pose and condemn this grand discov-
cry. We brand all statements to the
effect that vaccination has not been
effective and protective in England as
false, and we can prove our assertion
by any reputable English journal. As
for the nonsense of vaccino-siphilis, not
one practitioner in twenty, either here
or in England, ever saw case of it.
