sB The St. Louis (Missouri) Republican:
"All is not lost that was achieved by the war;
the constitutional amendments have not been
set back to where it was in 1861; the public
credit has not been impaired; the public debt
has not been repudiated; the pensions to
Union veterans have not been stopped; the
rebel debt has not been assumed; pensions
have not been given to rebel soldiers; the
currency and the revenue have not fallen in
to disorder; the Treasury is not empty; the
civil service has not become demoralized; the
National Bank system has not given place to
wildcat State Banks; National authority has
not been degraded, and great many other
dreadful things have not taken PLACE. On
the contrary the figures have decidedly
cheerful look. The cash in the Treasury has
increased $63,416,OO9, and the Secretary is
trying to get rid of the excessive surplus by
paying it out in $40 200, 900 lots on the public
debt. The debt has been reduced SOC, ,00O, 600
and is being paid off SO fast that the National
Banks are beginning to ask what they are to
do when there shall be no more bonds to
base their circulation upon. The net revenue
of the Government has increased $12, ,090,
and the net expenditures have diminished
81, ,79O, 900; and $7,302,OOO more have been
paid in pensions to Union soldiers than was

- 1t is reported from Fulton county that
many Republicans will vote the Democratic
ticket this fall. They are tired of bossism
and third-termism, and will cast their vote
this fall against it! The Democrats have an
excellenfticket in the field, and there are good
prospects of electing part Of it at least. Hon.
W. D. Hill will receive the support of hun
dreds of Republicans in Fulton and Williams
counties, who cannot stomach Boothman. He
will also carry Van Welt and Paulding coun-
ties, and will carry the district by over 1000
majority. Mark the prediction.

W The first congressional election under
a Democratic administration occurs this
year. The result will be considered an en-
dorsement or rejection of the policy of the
administration. On general principles a
Democratic President is better for the peo-
pie than Republican one, and in this par
hcular instance the Democratic President is
much better than any Republican or Whig or
Federal President the country ever had
Democrats should endorse him by electing a
congress that will be in thorough accord with
his Democratic views. This is an important
matter for Democrats to consider. For or
against the administration is the question:

s3 When men who occupy such positions
before the people as that in which Senator
JoHN SHERMAN stands is, to say the least and
word it in the mildest form, careless as to his
statements of fact, it must be expected that
the lesser politicians will take up these state
ments where they find them laid down and
carry them to the most extravagant and
absurd ends. When, for example, Senator
SHERMAN said that ever since the present ad-
ADMINISTRATION began the business of the coun-
try had been falling off, and that the outlook
to-day is worse than it was two years ago, he
said that which is not true. Business is i'm
proving throughout this country every day.
though it is not likely that the fact that we
have Democratic president has much to do
with it Gather way. When, for another ex
ample, Senator SHERMAN said that President
CLEVELAND had distributed his favors chiefly
among those distinguished in the rebel serv-
ice, and in making removals for offensive
partisanship the persons removed had always
been Republicans, he said again that which
is not true, though, in the light of the fact
that when he became president every office
was filled bya Republican, it must be seen
that it was necessary, in order to remove any
body, to remove a Republican. 1t is the4
legitimate province of political orator to
argue such questions as depend on opinion,
and to argue them from his own point of
observation, but it is unwise-a harsher term
would not be out of place-for men who have
the ear of large body of people, as Senator
SHERMAN has, to utter unjust and untruthful
structures upon his opponents. 1t warrants
the inference that Senator SHERMAN is not
above the petty ways of the ward politician,
who seeks to get votes honestly if he can, but
always to get them.-C Chicago Ne,vs.

WHAT TC BREATHE.

Pure Air Moro Essential to the Preserva-
tion Of Health, than Good Food.
Almost the first act after birth, and
the last one. is breathing, which must
be continued during mortal life, what
ever else may be omitted. This does
not depend on our volitions. but con-
tinues during our sleeping hours, con-
stantly, though ut reduced rate OF
speed. Pure air is as needful for the
lungs and the skin Us bread Is for the
stomach. Probably there are ten times
as many die, or suffer from the want of
pure air, as from deficient amount OF
food, and yet there is NO occasion for
any deficient supply, since vast ocean
of pure air surrounds the earth; by
some scientists claimed to be two hun
dred miles deep! This affords an am
pie supply for all. and, probably, for
many times the present number OF liv-
ing creatures on the earth. Aside from
exceptional cases this air is pure, rem
ovated by the vegetable creation, by
being waited on the wings OF the
wind to the utmost limits Of the earth,
the waters absorbing vast qua utilities In
tho passage.
In consequence of tho great low OF
diffusion, the air and foul gases are ever
intrusive, ever encroaching each Vi non
the other, each tending toward a geu-
eral sameness and equilibrium. We
may attempt to isolate ourselves, al
most barricading our sitting-rooms. our
sleeping apartments, yet the breeAes are
constantly about us. demanding an en-
trance, bowling as If disappointed when
ruthlessly shut out When we attempt
to tighten our apartment, put double
windows, to exclude the pure air OF
heaven, stop every possible crevice.
surround our beds with curtains, close
all of the windows and doors OF our
sleeping rooms, we are ignorantly fight
ing one of our very best friends.
The man who deliberately deprives
himself and his family of Gods pure
air, thus inducing many forms of dis
ease, is as certainly guilty man,
though he may do 1t ienorantly, as the
one with the same INTEL gence who de-
prives his family of their DALI food.
Indeed, If we may credit good author
ity, q man may hive from forty to eighty
days without solid food Captain lay

eighty-frst day, intending to die in this
way), while one would die In less time,
if deprived If water, but in a few min
utes, II deprived of air. Pure mir is the
essential OF human life, and 1t can be had
simply by the taking. -Dr. Hanaford,
in Golden Rule.
