writers, will be published about October
goth, by Harper & Brothers. The volume
will be copiously illustrated from photo
graphs and drawings by the best Ameri-
can artists, and besides being a notable

STA, will be an attractive and beautiful
book for the holidays.
The eleventh volume of Colonel Thomas

series will soon be published. This year
the boys are taken to Great Britain and
Ireland, and the story of their adven-
ventures and observations may be ex-
pected to possess more than ordinary
interest.

Confederate army, who held the s"Penin-
sula'' against Mcclellan in the spring of

SEND MR.. MCDONALD TO CONGRESS

AS Mr.. McAdoo has emphatically de-
cided not to run for Congress the name of
Mr.. Edward f. Mcdonald, late (and as
we hold) present Senator for the State of
New Jersey, has been proposed to the
electors of Hudson county and unani-
mously accepted by them.
Our readers W not forgotten the in
iquity of the verdict which declared Mr..
Mcdonald unseated and substituted Mr..
Stuhr in his place, without going through
any form of election.
Mr.. Mcdonald, even granting sundry
frauds in the ballots. was undoubtedly
elected to the Senate by a substantial
| majority over his so-called Democratic
opponent, the present occupant OF the
seat.
But if the whole election were illegal,
then Mr.. Stuhr Ind no more right to the
seat than Mr.. Mcdonald, and a new cleo
tion should have been ordered.
The Senate, however, having q Repub-
lican majority, decided the contrary. and
this for Two reasons, II that it might
keep a Republican majority and SO elect
General Seweil to the United States SEN
ate; the other, and the chief reason being
that they could by Mr.. Stuhr's help 80 re-
elect two Republicans to two of the best
and most remunerative offices in the
State.
To this end they falsiied themselves
and perpetrated the iniquity of robbing
Mr.. Mcdonald of the Senatorship to
which he had been justly aud fairly
elected.
To rebuke this outrage upon decepcy
and righteousness the Democrats of Hud-
son county have determined to send Mr..
Mcdonald to Congress, not only as u pro.
test against the Republicans and their
chicanery, but also as some recompense
to the gentleman OF whom they made u
martyr, in which role he poses and rightly
today.
That Mr.. Mcdonald win be returned is
earnestly to be desired, ii only as a re-
buke to the Republican clique who ousted
him from his rightful position.
Judging from the enthusiasm with
which his candidacy has been received,
and from the fact that the Republicans
virtually confess that they have no man
strong enough to III against him. we
may look upon his return as secure and
prophesy that Hudson county will CON
tribute another Democrat to swell the
ranks Of the party in Congress.

VARIOUS USES OF APPLES.

Besides being a Delicious Fruit They are
-UseFui for Medicinal Purposes.
The apple is composed Of vegetable
fibre, albumen. sugar, gum, c~hlorophyl,
malic acid, gallo acid, lime and much
water. The German analysts declare that
the apple contains a larger percentage OF
phosphorus than any other fruit or veEe-
table. This phosphorus is admirably
adapted for renewing the essential nerv-
Gus matter, lethicin OF the brain n
spinal cord. Old Scandinavian legends or
traditions represent the apple as the food
OF the gods, who. when they found them
selves growing feeble and infirm, resorted
TO this fruit to renew the powers of the
mind and body. Judging from these ira
ditlons apples must have been highly
thought OF i'll ancient times, and their
restorative qualities understood. The
acids of the apple are of great use to peo-
pie OF ~sedentary habits whose livers are
sluggish in action; they eliminate from
the body noXious matters which, If re-
tanned, wonld make the brain heavy and
dull, or bring about jaundice or skin
eruptions, and other allied troubles. Some
such experience mist have led TO til Gus
tom Of taking apple sauce with roast pork
rich goose and like dishes. The mali
acid in ripe apples. either raw or cooked
VIII neutralize any excess of chalky mat
ter e~ngendered by eating too much meat
1t is also the fact that such fresh fruits as
the apple, the pear and the plum, taken
when ripe, without sugar, diminish the.
acidity of the stomach rather thar pro-
woke it. Che vegetable salts and juices
are converted into alkaline c~arbonntes,
which tend to correct acidity. A good
ripe, raw apple Is one of the easiest of
vegetable substances for the stomach to
denl with, the whole process of digestion
being completed in eightv-five minutes.
A poultice of rotten apples is said to be
an excellent remedy for weak, rheumatic
eyes. In the French hopitals an apple
poultice is applied to infiamed eyes, the
apple being roasted and the pulp applied
directly TO the eyes-that is, without the
intervention of any cloth or substance. A
modern maxim teaches us that
ITO eat an apple going to bed
The doctor then will beg his bread"

4 DIsHEARTENING SPECTACLE.

There is no spectacle more dishearten-
ing than that in Pennsylvania. That a
party should ask support because of its
policy of protection is a legitimate move
ment of politics. But that it should ask
the friends of protection to prove their
faith by voting for a candidate whose
election would be the conformation of his
own confessed offences and of those charg-
ed upon Quay by a multitude of his most
honorable fellow-cltizens. and which are
universally. believed, is as di~screditable an
act as the annals of party and this country

Stumbling infamous Bob.

t AS00A
The way the Democratic Assembly
candidates repudiate infamous Bob's
attempt to sell them to the rumsters
OF the State is calculated to make
every honest Democrat feel a warm
glow OF satisfaction. 1t is pleasant to
see the capacity for manly indigna-
ton which these gentlemen display as
they n after another assert their in
dependence of his dictation.
This was to be expected. Many of
the gentlemen are of high personal in
tegrity and hold strong individual
opinions. That they should permit a
petty boss to trade in their CON
sciences and sell their voices for whis-
key votes was beyond belief. 1t is
hardly conceivable indeed that any
man above the level of Mike O'Mara
or Tom Trotter would permit his
name and his manhood to be abused
in such a fashion.
The truth is Davis did not make the
promise in good faith. He had no
idea of delivering the goods hebar-
gained to sell. He was playing a sort
Of s'green goods game. He schemed
to get the value from the liquor deal
ers, and then to snap his fingers at
them when they asked him to keep
his half of the bargain.
This is the same old game that he
played with ex-Freeholder Pairson
and a host of Others. 1t is the sort of
operation that makes honest politi
clans speak of him as a mere political
confidence man. 1t is the same old
game that has alienated from him all
the leading men of the party in this
county. 1t is the sort of policy which
makes active Democrats shrug their
shoulders and say, ''Let him elect his
man if he can; we're not taking any
chances whenever Davis and Nc
Phillips are mentioned.
APRoPos, what straits the Ring
must be in when it is content to sur
render all chances of rum Doodle for
the sake of rum support. Davis told
the meeting last Thursday that not
one penny al wanted fromthe liquor
dealers, simply their work.
Generally the run sellers money is
the thing wanted, and when Davis
refrains from urgently begging for
that, he must feel that he wants the
liquor mems work very badly indeed.
But if he does not want the liquor
mems cash, where is the campaign
fund coming from. He is not putting
up any very great part of it himself.
He is not built that way. He is in
politics to make money, not to spend
it. He is VIGOROUSLY the stingiest
leader the Hudson Democracy ever
had. Who then is furnishing 1.-THE
Gust'' for this campaign?
We presume the employees of the
city and county are having a bad
time, and the contractors who hold
street cleaning, paving, building and
supply jobs have been MIXED for all
they are worth. 1.-THE echoes and the
babies were resonant for months
