THE ecromg sooy,
with Catarrh, is to stop it without
curing it. The poisonous, irrita'
ting snuffs, strong caustic solutions,
"creams," balms and the like may,
perhaps, palliate for time. But
they may drive the disease to the
lungs. The wrong way is full of
danger.
The right way is proved one.
It's with DR.. Sage's Catarrh Rem
edy. 1t cures, perfectly and per-
manently, by its mild, soothing,
cleansing and healing properties,
the worst cases of Chronic Catarrh.
1t has proved itself right, thou
sands of times, when everything
else has failed.
And this makes it's proprietors
willing to prove that it's the right
thing for you, no matter how bad
your case or of how long standing.
If they can't cure your Catarrh,
they'll pay you $500 in cash.
They mean it.
They're certain of their medi.

day IN January next the electoral colleges

the presidency. They have legal right
to do that in any event, as there IS no
restriction upon theIr choice except
in regard to the qualifications LAID
down III the Constitution. should
Mr.. Cleveland be elected President by the
electoral colleges in January and Mr. ste.
venson Vice President. and the former
should die between that time and the first
of March, Mr.. Stevenson would be the
President. This contingency Is provided
for in the twelfth amendment of the Con-
stitution, which declares that in case of n
failure to elect o President or IN case OF
a vacancy in the Office from any
other cause the Vice-President shall! act.
Article 2, section l. of the Constitution

HooxER's MOVEMENTS.
Example 6. Greg Gays Hooker marched
with 100 900 men to cross the Rapidan and
the Rappabannock above their junction,
and that his main army crossed the Rapi-
dan about eighteen miles from Fredericks-
burg y"
This final charge IL perplexing one.
Hitherto the critic has indicated his point
of dissent, but here he leaves us in inscru-
table darkness. His row of exclamation
marks probably imply sarcasm. but we
have no means of knowing to what that
sarcasm relates. Hooker's campaign
has never been subject OF dis
pute. and its leading features are
a matter OF familiar knowledge to both
armies and TO the whole country. The
movements described were the movements
made. With the exception Of Sedgwick's
detachment and the Second Corps, Hooker
marched up the left bank OF the river
with his whole army. crossing above their
confluence the Rappahannook ct kelly's
Ford, and then moving to the Rapidan
crossed that stream ut lily and Germapna
Fords. This brought his army to the
south bank of the Rspidan, about eighteen
miles from Fredericksburg, as stated.
MICROSCOPIC CRITICISM.
So end the six examples adduced TO
prove that Greg, in describing the war OF
subiupatlor, is far more abundant in
errors than in facts" That portion OF his
brilliant work covers more than $50 pages,
vet the eager scrutiny Of hostile criticism

the reader to judge whether even these al
legged flaws do not recoil on the accuser.
That there are real inadyertencies IN the
book Is quite true, and 1t Is passing strange
that this microscopic critlscism should
have overlooked them, yet they are chiefly
mere errors of narrative which few loot
notes in later editions will easily clear mp.

With the announcement OF Representa-
tive O'Ferral of his candidacy for the
Democratic nomination for Governor of
Virginia the contest for that office may be
considered as opened. Mr.. O'Ferrall will
be a strong candidate for gubernatorlal

soldier, has served four terms in Congress,
where he has been an efficient member.
and is fine campaigner, with an extensive
acquaintance IN all sections of the State.
He had strong following when Governor
Mckinney was nominated, and since then
his strength has been materially increased.
There will be other aspirants for the nomi-

TYLER and ex-Attorney- General Ayers, so
an interesting but good-natured contest
