Genoa has streets Of palaces chiefly
built IN the sixteenth and seventeenth
centuries for the proud mobiles of this
commercial and maritime city. The
Gsrbaldi stretch has only palaces IN
1t, and among them the Municipal has
the handSomeSt exterior, and farther
on in the Balbi are the University. with
a court and staircase famed as the
finest in Genoa. and then follows the
Royal Palace. Tho street of the gold
smiths is full of shops. where gold and
silver iiligrcc articles are sold. Tall
candclabra. their size made elegant by
graceful clusters of flowers and leaves

STATUE OF COLUMBUS.
4 statue of Columbus Is in the piazza
near the railway station. The colossal
marble figure is on pedestal orna-
mented with tho prowS of ships.
America is kneeling at its feet, and
sllegorical figures of Wisdom, Strength,
Geography, and Religion surround it.
Though Genoa has no such claim to
beauty rs Ncnicc-hcr rival on the sea
and her conqueror- she Is beautiful
city. The town is built on one side
Of the halfmoon-Shaped harbor, and
up the slopes behind, where the
luxurious vegetation Of the district
makes itself visible at every point. Its
magnificent palaces. wide streets, and
busy population impress on the passing
traveller that enterprise and intell-
genee, aided by the advantages of eli
mate and position, have here been emf
nently successful. From Genoa we

THE NAMES OF PARTIES.

1t is curious fact that the names of
many political parties in this and other
countries were originally given them in
derision by their opponents. In spirit
Of defiant pride, the names at first in.
ten led 20 tones Of reproa ch by advers
les were adopted and perpetuated, 50
that in this way many great parties have
gone into history with vigorous names.
The word "Whig" has several derlva-
tons. All agree that it has Scotch
origin. The best authorities derive it
from "whiggamore," a term by which
certain Scotch freeboeters and yagabonGs
were known. Disraeli, however, derives
it from "whigg," the name of Scotch
beverage of sour milk, and SO, he says,
expressive of the disposition of the
Wings.
Al The name Glory is of Irish origin !;
was the name by which certain Irish
robbers were known. Both words. WING
and tory, were first used in England in a
political sense about the year 1880 A. D..
The Know-pothing party was secret,
oath-bouud organization, and took its
name from the fact that its members, in
answer to inquiries about the party
usually responded, 81 know nothing"
The phrase of "Locofoco Democrat"
was applied to extremists of the Demo
cratic party. Al meeting of TammaDy
hall in 1884, dissensions arose. To break
up the meeting, one Of the quarreling
factions put out the lights. The other
faction lighted matches, and finally had
the hall relighted. Matches were then
called loCofocos.
The words "Democrat" and "Repub
lican' are both disniied and significant
party names. Their meaning is too well
known to require comment .-IndtanapO-

AYERS PILLS.

A large proportion Of the diseases which
cause human suffering result from derange-
ment of the stomach, bowels, and liver.
AYERS CATHARTIc PILLS act directly upon
these organs, and are especially designed to
cure the diseases caused by their derange-
ment, including Constipation, Indiges-
ton, Dyspepsia, Headache, Dysentery,
and a host of other ailments, for all of
which they are . safe, sure, prompt, and
pleasant remedy. The extensive use OF these
PILLS by eminent physicians in regular prac-
tice, shows Enthusiastically the estimation in
which they are held by the medical profes-
sion.
These PILLS are compounded Of vegetable
substances only, and are absolutely free from
calomel or any other injurious ingredient.
A Sufferer from Headache writes:
"AYER's PILLS are invaluable to me, and
are my constant companion. / have been
severe sufferer from Headache and your
PILLS are the only thing j could look to
for relief. One dose will quickly move my
bowels and free my head from pain. They
are the most effective and the easiest physic
have ever found. 1t is a pleasure to me to
speak in their praise, and / always do SO
when occasion offers.
