Catarrh to CONSUMPTION.

Catarrh in its destructive force stands next to
and undoubtedly leads on to consumption. 1t is
therefore singular that those afflicted with this
fearful disease should not make it the object of
their lives to rid themselves of it, Deceptive RENE
dies concocted by ignorant pretenders to medical
knowledge have weakened the confidence of the
great majority of sufferers in all advertised rene
dies. They become resigned to life of misery
rather than torture themselves with doubtful pal.

But this will never do. Catarrh must be met at
every stage and combatted with all our might. In
many cases the disease has assumed dangerous
symptoms. The bones and cartilage of the nose the

fected as to be useless the uvula so elongated the
throat so inflamed and irritated as to produce a
constant and distressing cough

Mr.. Reeds Speech.

The public no doubt labors under the inn
preston that tariff speeches are dull. As a
rule that is true. But there are exceptions.
In Mr.. Reeds speech which we present to
our readers in full this morning there is not
a dull line, and it is entirely safe to predict
that nobody who begins TO read it will stop
until 1t is finished. 1t is one Of the strong
est evidences of genius to be able to so
present subject naturally heavy and tire
some, that it shall be entertaining and
enlist the attention of the general reader.
Mr.. Reed has been wonderfully successful
in doing this in his speech. At the same
time the address is not wanting in strength
and solidity. Cogent and convincing reas-
oning it has in abundance. Its foundation
is laid strong and deep, but the structure
reared upon it has been made attractive as
we'll as substantial. 1t pleases as well as
conyinces.
Mr.. Reed confines himself almost entirely
to comparison Of the two rival theories of
free trade and protection. He regards the
Mills bill simply as one step in the direction
of free trade, to b. Vowed, if the Demo-
cratic party remain In control of the govern
ment, by other steps in the same direction,
and he devotes his speech to consideration
OF the end which the Democrats are seeking
rather than to the means. His argument
for protection is mastery one, and
in showing up the fallacies, the incon-
sistencies and mis-statements of the adyo-
Gates of tariff for revenue only" he is ex-
ceedingly happy, and, we imagine, he may
have been little exasperating to the creators
of the Mills bill, who sat within hearing of
his voice. Mr.. Reed has delivered many
speeches that have arrested the attention of
the country, but never one SO brilliant as
this. 1t commanded the admiration of all
who heard it, political foes as we'll
as political friends. 1t will receive like

1t looks as if the Pope would have been
better off If he had left the Irish question
alone. Protests are heard on every hand
The Irish Catholic members of Parliament
have united in an answer to the rescript in
which they fearingly deny the competency
of the Roman Congregation to interfere in
the matter at all, refuse to be bound by its
utterances on the question of morals, and
suggest that 1t has been deceived as to the
facts, and especially the central fact of the
Irish case, viz; that all or nearly all the i'm
proyements on the land have been made by
the tenants, who have been for a century
compelled to pay rent for the use of their
own additions to the landlords property.
President Fitzgerald of the branch of the
National League in this country, represents
the Irish here as taking much the same view
of the rescript. The time has gone by when
the Pope can interfere In political matters
and not be sharply criticised even by Irish
Catholics

A PHENOMENON.
Portland Advertiser.l


The Express comes promptly to the de-
fence of the Burleigh people in Bangor. who
told Hannibal Hamlin he might be delegate
to the State convention, If he would keep his
mouth shut, and then defeated him in his own
ward and finally wiped the ground with
him in the city convention. The Express
discovers that 1.-THE genius OF our institu-
tions" somehow requires and Justlhes this
performance. But how comes the Express
to figure as Spokesman for Mr.. Burleigh's
friends? Does ''the genius of our institu-
tons" account for that phenomenon?
THE BANGOR AFFRoNT TO MIR. HAMLIN.
[Biddeford Journal
Republicans throughout the State are
commenting with considerable vlgor up
on the course pursued toward Names
honored citizen, the venerable Han
nibal Hamlin, by the friends OF Mr..
Burleigh in Bangor That he desired
to attend the Portland convention as dele
gate from that city, was well known, and yet
the fact that he was not an avowed advocate
of Mr.. Burleighs nomination was consider
ed sufficient cause to turn out the last Bur
leigh voter in his ward to deprive the war
Vice President and friend of Abraham Lin
coin of the small honor of seat in that body.
The friends of Mr.. Burleigh, realizing the
impolicy of this petty act, are busily striy-
ing to explain it away as of little moment,
but the thousands of Maine people who
know Mr.. Hamlin only to admire and respect
him, look upon it as gratuitous act of in
Justice, to call it by no barsher name, and
one which they will not be likely soon to
forget

In answer to the charge of the Bangor
Wing that the PRESS report of the Bangor
caucuses misrepresented the attitude of the
Burleigh men towards ex-senator Hannibal
Hamlin, we present in another column a
statement by Gen. Charles Hamlin. Gen.
. Hamlin was asked the direct question, ''Do
you think the despatch printed in the Port
land PRESS the morning after the Bangor
caucuses misrepresented the attitude Of Mr..
Burleigh's supporters towards Mr.. Hamlin's
candidacy? and his reply was, mo sir. not
at ALL" In the light of this statement it be-
comes entirely unnecessary to handy elithets

The free traders dent like 1t because the
New York Democratic Convention did not
endorse the Mills bill. The New York

prove SO one Democratic Conven ton will

We don't know how much of following
Gov Hill has left in New York, but after

The Democratic State convention meets at
Augusta tomorrow. SO far there seems to be
very little concentration of opinion on any
one of the gentlemen named for the guberna-
torial nomination. The fact is nobody has
considered the honor of leading the party tc
defeat worth struggling for, and though
there are several gentlemen who are willing
to take it,-who perhaps want it little
there is nobody who will feel very much cut
up Il he doesn't get it.

The Mills bill win now be reported to the
House and then amendments will be in or
der under the five minute rule. Just how
long this process will continue cannot be
predicted. Some of the Republicans are anx-
ious to take vote Immediately. believing
that the bill will be killed, but Mr.. Randall
wants to try and amend it and probably he
will be permitted to. The prospect Of the
bills getting through the House in substan-

II Surprised Him Into Ignoring . Bar
gain He Had Made About Louisiana
State Lottery Ticket.

On the application of Richard Keat-
ing, an injunction has been granted by
Judge Tuley restraining the Adams
Express Company from paying to
Edward Curtin $4,000 collected on a
lucky Louisiana State Lottery ticket.
Heating claims that just before the
last drawing he and Curtin each
bought a ticket with the understand
ing that If either of them won any
thing 1t should be divided. Like
nine tenths of the patrons of such
schemes, Mr.. Heating drew a big
blank-there wasn't a dollar within
shooting distance of his ticket. Cur
tin on the other hand, was something
like a man who falls into river and
gets out without wetting-he was so
lucky that he couldn't believe the re-
port that he had won $4,000 until
the express company notified him that
the money was ready for him. Keat-
ing, il is claimed, reminded him of his
promise to "divey," but was rudely
repulsed. Mr.. Curtin was the winner
and didn't propose TO throw away any
of the prize on a man who couldn't
pick out a lucky ticket. Hence the
injunction and the danger that, If the
matter rests much longer unsettled,
the lawyers will fatten on the $4,000,
and what they leave will be so small
that both Curtin and Heating will be
ashamed TO quarrel about it Chicago

And though we blamed the tricksy nice,

Against his mammals gentle wish

Look at this courtly old gentleman
talking to a sweet and charming maiden
of eighteen In the ballroom. What
is he thinking2 Although he may
have the best wife in the world, and
love her and respect her, the wish
still passes through his mind that he
were young once again TO love and win
her. She has boquet of roses In her
hand. She picks one of the prettiest
out and hands Ii TO him. Watch him
take il. He puts Ii TO his lips-with
that old fashioned grace. He bows
and holds her hand to his lips where
the rose has been. lie puts 1t In his
button hole, and there comes into his
face as he watches the fair giver swept
off into the dance, look of mingled
pleasure and sadness. You can't tell
me that mans heart is hardened to the
world He is judge, accustomed to
try hard cases, to- see human nature In
its meanest, in its most contemplate
form. See, he comes back. lie is
looking for something. lie has drop
the rose by accident, and-there Ii Is
he has picked II up and put ii back
into his button-h hole. don't think
woman has the same envy as man.
The old lady, whose hair has grown
white in peaceful married life, has
her dream of youth. dare say she
sits on the settee in the corner, and
her eyes grow a little dim, perhaps, as
she watches the young girls dancing
and the handsome young men paying
assidaous court to them. She does
not envy them 80 much. She looks
at her husband, and once again she
sees him young, handsome, dashing, as
she knew him when they first fell In
love with one another nearly half
century ago. And just as likely as
not she thinks of the one she thought
she loved and nearly married, and how
he went all TO the bad, and in her
heart she Is grateful that the tempta-
ton can never come again for her.
The years have come and the years
have gone. Envy and sorrow have
given her her share of all the worlds
experience; there have been moments
when love seemed cold, when the fire
seemed to be going out; but there has
always come a little breeze to fan II
into blaze again, and so she goes, and
her old husband puts her wrap on as
tenderly as If she were the girl who
had given him the rose, for he, too,
has thought back and seen the flush
in her cheek, the light in her eye, the
glory around her fair young head as
it was wont to be. And as they pass
they peep into the ball room and give
last look at youth and beauty; and
80 the old couple wander out into the
moonlight, which falls as softly as the
silver has fallen upon their hair
through the long years of trust and
conf Hanro
