Ar THE END OF THE FIRST YEAR.

AT THE END OF THE FIRST YEAR.
 The thew administration is getting old That is, it has been in office full year. It
 has had time to show what it could do and would do. What has it donea Very little, it
 seems to us, compared with what it prom
 ised. It has proved bitter disappointment to great many good Democrats and even the Mugwumps are not satisfied with it. It is interesting and improving to notice the complaint made by George William Cur
 tis, the principal Mugwump, in his paper. He mournfully concludes that there is reason
 to doubt if there is any general restoration of confidence in the Democratic party, and
 that the Democratic politician is not prefera-
 ble to the Republican. He points out that
 the three mistakes in the first year of MT. Clevelands administration are the changes
 in the civil service without legitimate cause,
 although the number is much smaller than
 under any other administration; the contin
 uance of the attorney general in the cabinet,
 and the refusal to make public the reasons for removal. And he is persuaded that the
 President cannot "educate" his party to be a reform party. He goes on to complain and advise as follows: But he could require every member of his cabinet to observe strictly his policy in regard to removals, and he could initiate the practice of holding all communi- cations in regard to appointment and remev- al to be part of the public records. If such a course should divide his party it would merely prove that he must decide between | reform principles and his party. Should he insist that his policy be strictly observed his iohf oi1,11 not carry another election. But should he l think to ''reform little" and to allow for the tender-footed Democrats, he would inev itably share their discontinue. It is situ- ation in which at this time it is better to | trust the people than party. No President has done so much for reform as MT. CIeve- land But it is 8 movement ill which, from the nature of the case and his own record his administration will be judged not so much by what is done well as by what is done ill. Good appointments can neither ''set off" bad appointments TOT careless removals. The appointments in Maryland have gone far to overthrow the confidence of the truest friends of the President. Whoever has pro- l cured such appointments has covered the cause of reform in that State and the reputa- tion of the President friend of reform with contempt. The President should hold such malign advisers, within or without his cabinet, to their full responsibility. Unless
 reform be the plain and uniform policy of the
 administration the fact that it may do better
 than any other administrations will not se- cure reform
 This is very just and not unfriendly criti- icism There is no restoration of confidence
 in the Democratic party And there is a
 growing impress: on that the President is not
 such reformer as he said he was and would

 ''One year ago I was apparently far gone with Consumption that my life seemed only question of days rather than mouths. With my faith in the ability of physicians to help me all gone, I tried almost every known remedy, with no apparent benefit. Finally as last resort, I was induced to try Dr. R. c. Flowers Lung Cordial, The very first dose gave me relief, and with the first bottle I took a new lease of life, and can honestly say to-day that one spoont-l of this remedy is worth more to the sufferer from Lung troubles than a gallon of any other known remedy. bottle of it is now one of my choicest possessions, and at the first symptom of cough or cold I fly to it for the relief it never fails to give.'
 DIR. FLOWERS LUNG COR. DIAL is without question the most wonderful Lung remedy ever discovered. It eradicates the germ of CONSUMPTION as no remedy has ever been known to do. It stands without rival for COUGHS, COLDS, BRON~ CHITIS, ASTHMA and CON- SUMPTION.

Two bales of cotton raised by slave labor in 1862 were sold the other day at Rock Hill, South Carolina. The owner had been offered thirty-three and half cents in gold pound, but for some unknown reason would not sell and when he died he still had it stored It was in excellent condition, although twenty four years old, and was sold for eight and 8 quarter cents a pound, the lowest price touched by cotton since those bales were grown.

l doubt if any one ever heard of an
old fire insurance policy having any
value. Yet almost any business man
can produce a dozen for inspection on a
moments notice. 1 happened to drop
in at the office Of Col. W. P. Fogg the
other day, when he was sorting over his
old policies. He gave me a description
of how a fellow traveller with himself in
the Orient had used an expired fire in
surance policy TO good advantage.
His name vas Murray. He was on
board the same ship with Col. Fogg,
when the came to Jaifa, where they had
to make the usual landing by boats to
so TO Jersulem. At the landing place
stood a military officer, gorgeous in
eastern garb, with a magnificent silver
mounted cimeter in his sash. Murray
went ahead. As he presented his pass
port Col. Fogg noticed that it had y
queer look. But the officer turned it
round and round, upside down and over
and over. as he gazed blankly at its
pages and then gravely returned it with
n low salaam and a wave of his hand
that indicated his satisfaction in the cor
rectness of il. When they were out of
hearing and sight of the officer, Col.
Fogg asked TO see the passport and Muir
ray handed out an old ire insurance
policy. at looks just the same, said
Murray, "and it has signatures and seal;
and here Is the American eagle. What
more do these heather wantS they can't
read anyhow. Why, l lever think OF
travelling on anything lse."-New York

REPEAL OF A

There is undoubtedly a very strong SEN
timent among the members of congress in
favor of repeating the civil service reform
law. In all probability, if the question of
repeal were left to the constituents of the
Democratic members, the vote in favor of
abolishing the law would be almost unani-
mous Indeed, it Is more than likely that
a good portion of the members of the
house and senate who helped pass the law
would be willing to vote for its repeal, now
that its workings have been illustrated
under Democratic as well as Republican
administrations.
The sentiment in favor of repeating or
at least modifying the law is growing and
is finding loud expression. Senator Hamp-
tons mock bill, making it a crime to
speak about Offices TO any member OF the
executive department, Only voices a very
general feeling. Rumors of all kinds are
afoat concerning the future of this, the
biggest humbug of the nineteenth century.
Under the new rules of the house it ought
not To be difficult to test the question in
congress. If the friends of the law are
not afraid of its repeal, why not let the
test be made2 Perhaps the blatant re-
formers would be surprised at the size Of
the vote against them. There is a great
deal of imposition practiced under the

"Gnth" Tells How He R~ecupArates After
Severe Literary Work
Living in our very active age, with
every individual working at the top OF
his speed, ii becomes often a question
where to get the resuscitation absolutely
required after some continuous intense
mental work. | see that Edward Ev-
erett Hale has recently written an article
upon his own personal habits. saying
that he sleeps whenever he can get a
chance, and that it is only by sleeping
that he rouse and recur 10 what he
says is the most exciting occupation TO
man, regular literary composition.

in the past thirty years, of this kind, as

pense of the physical part of the a

a fair amount of exercise for the legs.
In the bath there is the exercise of div

sweat is an absolute change of the whole
mental system, as if the brain itself had
been secured off and put back. The
sweating in the bath carries from the
body much that corrodes and slogs it,
and alters the speed of the larger organs.
Then, after the bath and the rub, a little
sleep of half an hour is equal to two
hours at home in bed without exer-
else.
These baths ought to be in every i'm
portant American city. There is an
idea That they kill people by giving
them colds. l have had cold in every
way except by going to the baths. Then
there is an idea hat they are a shock TO
the system. That system which is
shocked by cold water applied in grada-
tons from the warm to the cold ought
to strengthen itself by trying more
water. The heat of the American
climate, the action of coal smoke, the
intoxicating habits of our people, the
s%tinting ourselves of exercise, all call out
for the bath as it is taken in Russia,
whether in the cold or warm belts OF
that empire of vigorous men.-Cincin-
