In addition TO my own case, my baby boy, then
about five months DID, was suffering with what
supposed to be the same disease as mine to such
an extent that his head was coated over with

developes ulcers in the eyes, ears. or nose, often
causing blindness or deafness; which Is the origin
of pimples. cancerous growths, or many other
manifestations usually ascribed 60 humors.-

possible features Of both Being the most ancient.
Il Is the most general OF all diseases aectionss

cures It has effected are really wonderful II you

C'OMICiL.

The electoral college which met in
Baton Rouge last Monday resorted to
Il novel method Of ~electiny the mes
senSer. There were several patriots
ready and willing to sacrifice them
selves upon the altar of their country.
This unexpected state OF things put
the college in Il Quandary, and our
grave electors scratched their craniums.
adjusted their thinking caps and set
themselves to work to solve the per-
picking problem. When, presto! a
modern Solomon-iliS name should
have been mentioned for the sake of
history-solemnly arose and grayely
proposed to cut the Gortiian knot by
making the aSpirants draw lots. And,
wonderful to be said, a new silk hat
our Senator's, by the way-was passed
around and slips of paper with the
names of the several aspirants were
dropped into it and then drawn-the
first name to be the lucky one Truly
Il happy device this, to get rid of IL
possible protracted ballot to elect il
messenger to carry a fruitless vote to
the nations capital.
Sage electors substitute the cast of
the die for the exercise OF their judg-
ment and the expression OF their will,
aud then gleetully rub their hands in
internal satisfaction and exchange mu-
tual congratulations on this exhibition
Of their own acutencss and glorious
power of invention.
But perhaps we ought not to be too
critical, as our elector drew fortl, the
prize out Of his own g~listening beaver
hat. and Lafourche once more reaps

The Minneapolis Journal says:

The fitness Of a man to he contiden-
tial adviser to the president OF tt ia re-
public is not to be measured by his
record as a party worker. Mr.. Blaine
did some good work for his party in
the last campaign and considerable
that was no. good. 1t is exceedingly
doubtful whether the net result If Mr.,
BlaineS influence III the campaign was

The New York Telegram says:
There can't we'll be anything sec
tional in plain, unvarnishea violence.
1t IS equally wrong and should be
equally stamped out wherever il shows
its head. Crime is crime in Ohio, Mis-
sissippi or New York, and all States
that p%allia;e it are equally iii disgrace.
The Montgomery advertiser says:

Samoan, who got off with the greater
portion of the spoils.
These two are ordinary men and
may be cIassed as common thieves.

Voice be correct-of having received
knowingly the stolen property and
paid for it even more than the price
asked. Not only did they pay in cash,
but promised government employ as a
reward for the crime committed
against the laws of the country.
And. as if to add to the intamy q.
their deed, the sanctimonious Clark
son cody suggested to the dishonest
employe, whose sense of shame and
degradation prompted him to quit the
service Of the men he had so grievious-
" wronged, that he should retain his
position to try and secure some evil
