SENATOR HARRIS AND THE APP
PEAL.

fsa'fs
Senator Harris yesterday made speech
at jackson, in the course OF which he paid
his respects TO THE APPEAL, and stated
that its Editor was disappointed because
che had not been recommended by him
for Postmaster at Memphis. " As we said

The Republicans OF the Northwest find
the Chicago platform bitter pill to swal-
low. The planks which declare for con-
tlnunnce OF the robber tariff and for re-
peal OF the internal revenue tax, cheapen-
ing whisky and tobacco in preference to
the necessities Of life, are so fat-footed
in contradiction Of their demands for re-
duction OF the surplus by revision OF the
tariff leaving the internal revenue as it is
that they are staggered and are dumb. They
wanted cheaper iron, cheaper lumber and
salt, and reduction Of duties on the ne
ccssities Of life and on whatever adds TO
the comfort OF the household. The Chicago
Tribune, for months before the Chicago
Convention met, advocated these reforms,
and The Tribune is power at the
Northwest. Other Republican papers
In Iowa. Michigan, Kansas and Wisconsin
have supported The Tribune in these
demands, while some OF the ablest articles
on tho subject have emanated from pro-
iessors in the universities Of those States.
All Of them uphold the principles Of the
Mills bill, although in the matter Of free
wool Michigan, which is n great wool
growing State, objects. Now they find all
their hopes dashed. but let us be abrupt
and ask, What are they going TO do about
II? Arc they going to confess themselves
whipped and vote against their honest
convictions?

What a great task is assigned to woa
man. Its dignity can not be elevated. 1t ie
not her province to make laws, to lead
armies, nor to be at the head of great ens
terprises, but to her is given the power to
form those by whom the laws are made,
to teach the leaders of mighty armies and
the governors of vast empires. She is
required to guard against having the
slightest taint of bodily inhrmity touch
the frail creature whose moral, intellect-
ual and physical being is derived from
her, She must instil correct principles,
inculcate right doctrines, and breathe into
the soul of her offspring those pure senti-
ments which in time to come will be a
part of themselves, and bless generations
vet unborn. Yes, to woman is given the
blessed privilege of aiding the sufferer in
all the various stages of his existence. She
smiles serenely at the christening, and
weeps at the burial, while she soothes the
bereaved heart. This is her province and
duty. Yet how can she fulfill her mission
unless possessed of a strong and healthy
body? The preparation of DIR. S. b.

they all failed to cure her. She was in
tiuced to try PERUNA, and Immediately a
marked change took place. After using
one bottle her cough ceased and in short
