English Paper,

"The celery should be cut into bits,
boiled In water until soft, and the
water drank by the patient. Serve
warm with pieces of toasted bread,
and the painful element will soon
yield. Such is the declaration of q
physician who has again and again
tried the experiment, and with uni
form success. Al least two-thirds
of the cases named heart disease are
ascribed to rheumatism and its agOn-
izing ally, gout. Smallpox, so much
dreaded, is not half so destructive as
rheumatism, which. it is maintained

An Impending Contest.

The News from Washington fore
shadows a contest between the Presi
dent and the United States Senate as
unusual as it would be important. In
the course of his duty, the President
has made some removals from office on
the ground of offensive partisanship.
If the gossip among certain Senators
is to be taken as an index of coming
events, the Senate will ask the Execu-
tive to define his understanding of the
offensive partisanship that met with
his official depreciation. 10 other words,
the Senate contemplates asking him to
communicate the causes of removal in
certain cases.
The Constitution makes the Senate
a factor in the power of appointment,
to Office in that it is authorized to "ad
wise aud consult with" the President in
his admitted function of appointing
certain public officials. But neither
that instrument nor any other autho
rity, written or otherwise, gives the
Senate voice in the right of remov
al. That is his peculiar prerogative
aud has never been questioned
1t is true that during the administra
tion of President johnson every sort
of embarrassment was thrown in the
way, but even during that period O
ultra partisanship and irreconclaibl'
leadership the step now contemplated
| was not attempted.
If the Senate should undertake tC
adopt such an unprecedented course
during the present session, the obviou
duty of the President is to absolutel,
ignore it. There is no doubt that b,
had good and sufficient reasons TO
making the removals in every case
1t is equally certain that the numbe
of cases might have been multiplied
and ought to have been. The Senat
can refuse to consent to the appoint
ment OF successors, but beyond that it
interference is impudent and imperti
nent..-Patri0t.
