Comment by the New York Tribune.

The nominations made by the President
yesterday will confirm the belief that this ad-
mini-tration intends to look after the friends
of Samuel j Tilden. Mr.. HAY, who was
nominated for First Assistant Postmaster
General, was one of the lawyers sent to
Florida in 1876 by Mr. Tilden. Mr. Hay is
also a stanch friend OF Mr.. Randall, which
will he of interest TO the Kentucky free
traders, inasmuch a. the First Assistant
PostmasterGeneral looks after the appoint
ment Of over 10000 postmasters. Mr.. Dur
ham the nominee for First Controller of the
Treasury, appears TO be an average demo-
crat. When member of Congress he voted
against the resumption of specie payments,
favored the salary grab, and wanted the de-
prcCiated greenbacks accepted in payment of
custom dues. He opposed giving preference
- honorahly discharged Union soldiers and
sailors IN filling minor offices. The nomi-
nee for Commissioner of Patents seems to be
chiefly distinguished for his lack of knowledge
concerning the office What reform there
is covered ap und r these nominations no one
is vet able to find out.

Too much effort cannot be made to bring
10 the attention Of suffering womanhood the
great value of Lydia Z. Pinkhams vegeta-
Bic Compound Is remedy for the diseases
of women and perhaps nothing is more effec-
tual than the testimony of those who have
been cured by it. Such an one is the wife Of
General Barringer of Winston. N. c.. and
We quote from the Generals letter as follows !:
Dear Mrs. Pinkhsm: Please allow me to
add INV testimony to the most excellent medl-
cinal qualities of your Vegetable Compound.
Mrs. Barringer was treated for several years
for what the physicians called Leucorrhea and
Prolapsus Uteri combined. sent her to
Richmond, Va, where she remained for six
months under the treatment of an eminent
Physician without any permanent benefit
She was induced to try your medicine and
after reasonable time commenced to i'm
prove and is now able to attend to her bust
ness and considers herself fully relieved"

Housed Up.

For the last three months a great many
people have been housed up, because they
have not felt able to Withstand the stormy
wintry weather that has prevailed. But I'M
fortunately the confinement and the close air
of modern houses during the winter season
is enervating, and the system needs help to
enable all the organs to do their proper work
Ii these organs have been inactive the conse.
quences are showing themselves in the bill
ious condition of the system, or in constpa-
ton Of the bowels, or in disorders of the kid
neys with all the aches and pains that accom-.
panv these complaints. If you are in this
condition from any cause you should make 9
faithful trial of that well known remedy Kid
ney Wort. 1t acts at the same time on the
kidneys, liver and bowels, and is therefore
especially fitted to correct this torpid condi
ton of the system. marl7d.Od&vlw

The faine INSTRUMENTATION Special In
Boston Advertiser.

The Main" democrats who want office are
frantic, because they have an idea that Sena-
tors Frye and Hale will prevent their contr-
nation, provided they are nominated. Among
those who are especially troubled on this
score are w. A. Cromwell, who wants to be
fourth auditor; + f Ph!sbury, candidate
for internal revenue collector at Boston !;
Charles Roberts. DESTROYS to be collector at
Bangor; C. b, Morton, sspirant for the Au.
gusta post office; and Edmund Wilson, who
desires to be internal revenue collector in
Maine. Their friends are irving to find out
what the position of the two senators is,
having a sort of idea that, for various reasons
they will prevent their confirmation. This
is probably not true. as, except in special
cases, the senators will vote to confirm those
who are nominated, provided their moral
character is good The row is chiefly be-
tween the Maine men, who are already fight
ing each other with 4 bitterness that 10 sug-
gestive of trouble before long.
