 T never would have thought that chronic ca tatTh could undermine ones general health as 1t finally did mine. As the result Of neglected heart trouble, deafness, nerYousness and neural. gia. But now, thanks to Dr. R0yces medicine and treatment, feel well and strong again. ? James Arthur, who lfvef. in Worcester, Mass, spoke as above when seen by the writer a few days ago. Being asked for the particulars of his recovery, under Dr. ROyce's treatment, Mr. Ar fected, but the catarrh also caused deafness in my case. There were ringing or singing noises in my ears. If any one talked to me, 1t would on. Nearly everything would have to be re- peated two or three times before | could under sand it. and my nsacng was sspay growing stomach was always out of order. There were severe pains through my stomach and bowels, had no appetite, and dared eat A scarcey 's any. thing, my stomach was so tender.

 It's a pity to have so gen. erous an offer exposed to such a cool reception. It is useless to disgnise the fact; but we have done our part. We stated plainly that

DR. THOMAS GRAVES, of Providence, was on Saturday found guilty, at Denver, Colorado, of the murder of Mrs. Joseph Barnaby, also of Providence. The. cir cumstances of the murder will be remem- bered. Mrs. Barnaby, while in Colorado, died after drinking whfskey from bottle which had been sent her from the east. Dr. Graves had motive for putting her out of the way. The evidence was cir cumstantial, but convincing to the jury that he sent her the whiskey with mur- derous intent. He stoutly denies that he Is guilty.

THE legality of Gov. Bulkeley's title to the office which he claims to hold is af- firmed by decision of tho supreme court, the six judges, Andrews, Fenn, Carpen- ter, Seymour and Torrance, all concur ring, Carpenter dissenting only as to some views expressed in the written opinion. The court, therefore, only afirms what very few doubted-that until his successor was confirmed in his title by the forms of law the incumbent of the office retained 1t. The declaration of the returns is stated by the court to be as important as any part of the election. The law further prescribes that this declaration must be made upon the first day of the session. The house, by the legal fiction of taking a recess from day to day, kept the door open for weeks for doing this first day's'' duty. The senate, on the other hand, closed this door by an adjournment each day, and when the house finally separated for a term of weeks 1t also made it an ad- journment Thus there is now no way to induct new officers into the places of those holding over. It is disappointing that the judges did not see their way clear to rule upon disputed points in the election. The best men of all parties would have preferred & decision that would have closed the way to like complications in the future, whichever party might have suf- fered temporary disadvantage thereby.
 
 No good citizen wishes ever to see anoth- CT emergency like the present one. or to see the results~a an election again de- pendent upon the vagaries of single town meeting moderator. When 1t be- comes of more Qonsequence to have 2 tricky moderatol yto secure votes an election in Com becomes some thing very different from what the fath- ers,s planned 1t to be.

IRE senate and house met yesterday. and adjourned until to-day. The house passed resolution. accepting of the de. eislon of the supreme court. The senate refused to. take up business as moved by Senator Clark (rep). There seems no certainty that the senate will do business. In reply to a question as to his intent, Senator Seymour, of the appropriations committee, said: "Due public notice of meetings of the committee will be given, if any are held. I am not prepared to say whether there will be any meetings. A high authority has just advised us that c process ef slection aohich begGn Nouens6es 4, 1890, is yet wnfnisbed.

 priations."
 Springfield Republican: While thecourt at no point discusses the right of the leg islature to Ego behind" the returns of the town moderators, it implies by it's discus sion that the courts power so to do could not be questioned. In the event, there fore, of further judicial proceedings being taken in behalf of Judge Morris along the line suggested by this decision, the public could expect fresh sitting of the election figures by tribunal whose dominating spirit could not be denounced as purely partisan. It is disappointing that the su- preme court has not gone into this phase of the case already instead of suggesting to the relator fresh start; but doubtless the judges in strict legal sense are fault less in deciding that their present inform ation did not warrant such action. This decision on the whole is disappointment to the Connecticut democrats Although their fundamental contention that the legislature cannot examine the election returns in 8 judicial capacity has not been weakened, they are in duty bound now to recognize Bulkeley as the lawful gov ernor; while in order to seat Morris they must begin anew a tedious journey through the courts that might not be concluded before the next election had been held. Under the circumstances the democrats may do nothing more to disturb Bulkeley, but rather husband their strength for an appeal to the people in November.
 Hartford Times: The supreme court decides that Mir. Bulkeley is the legal governor. But deeper is the question, which the supreme court of this state de- !cided in 1862, viz.: "What constitutes a constitutional election in Connecticut ?'' The court, we regret to say, does not set tie that question. It is still left with the legislature; and the house has refused, and we presume will refuse, to pass a special declaratory resolution in the case of four elected officials. The court leaves the situation as 1t was. The court would have won proud and lasting name had 1t laid down the true principles of the constitution in this case, and surely un- locked the deadlock. It would have ren- dered signal service'to the state.
 But there is higher sovereignty than courts and legislatures the sovereign people; who can, If they please, change legislatures, executive officers, and the courts.
 Hartford Courant: The first point of interest, and It's interest is mighty, is that the judges are unanimous in the decision which they reach. As we have said be- fore, 1t would have been state calamity
