IfdferiT tgjffife. Friday Morning. *} 2*. Xtlt TRI K. The Inquirer, of last week, in an ar ticle on the Registry Lw, says that by the abolition of Spring elections, "the yearly expense to the whole peo ple for holding elections, will by this one feature of the bill be reduced one half." It is true that there will be no expense for some few items heretofore incurred by the county in the election ofborough and,township officers,but the cost of elect ion blanks still remains,and as the labor ofelection officers isdoubiod, by fixing the elebtion of township and borough officers on the day of the gen eral election, of course nothing will be saved in the pay of those officers. Moreover, it is not true that the annu al election expenses are decreased by this Registry Law. On the other hand they are incca;ed. What little is saved in the abolition of Spring elec tions, is overbalanced by the addition al pay of Assessors, Commissioners, Ac., in making the Registry. Election of ficers, too, must be supplied with stamps for the making of naturaliza tion papers. These will cost a pretty little sum. Our former calculation placed the additional expense of hold ing the elections under the Registry Law, at S2,(HMJ per annum. We are sat isfied that these figures are below the mark. It wilt reach at least $3,000 and probably more. As for the people saving a day, that is all humbug. They may have to lose two days iu order to get themselves registered. We would have no objection to the doing away with Spring elections, were it not that by doing so and by fixing the time for choosing township aral borough officers on the day of the gen eral election, every little office, from that of Justice of the Peace to that of Town Clerk, is thrown into politics. As partisans we are satisfied with this arrangement, for it will strengthen the hands of the democracy in this coun ty. But on principle, we are opposed to it. We have reason to think that the Inquirer favors the Registry Law? the abolition of Spring elections in eluded, only because it is a measure of its party. Of course nobody expects that paper to have sufficient indepen dence to condemn anything that is done by the radical leaders. THE OFFICE-SEEM INO PVTBIOi*. It Is calculated, says the Statesman, that there are forty-two thousand offices in the gift of the United States Gov ernment. These offices are suited to all capacities, from the gigantic intei -1 -ct of Grant to the microscopic facul ties of a whiskey-taster deputy in the Revenue Department. So long as there Is one kind of capacity, that for absorption, other qualifications are a matter of small moment. Happily, under our free and glorious institu tions, every citizen is equally eligible for every position, even up to the Pres idency. It may be said with truth by the admiring midwife at the birth of every free and equal American child, "Here is a lawful candidate for the Presidency." For each of the forty two thousand offices mentioned above, it is estimated there are ten applicants, or 420,000 Radical patriots, each and every one of them "trooly loil," and ready to adhere to the public treasury through thick and thin with the tenaci ty of the daughters of the horseleech. Four hundred and fifty thousand must be nearly one-fifth of the whole Radi cal party. It is a full hundred thous and larger than the whole military force of the South in the late war. It is indeed a noble army of paupers. If Grant had received as many applicants for places on his devious line to Rich mond, he might have shortened the war nearly a year. None of these fine fellows require to be drafted for the civil service of the country. The only drafts indispensable for these are drafts on the treasury. Without undertaking to depreciate the vast services which Radicalism has rendered the country— the respectability it lias conferred up on the United States ; the immunity it has virtually secured us from all for eign wars, even should the national honor he involved, by building up a debt as great as that of England ; the e -onomy and honesty it has introduced in every branch of the public service; the pure, exemplary, ami statesman like personages it has introduced into the national councils, and the fine state of feeling, so favorable to reconstruc tion, which it has cultivated in the Soul hem States-;we still think it is asking too high a price when one man out of five of the exemplary Radical party demands to !>c fed from the pub lic crib. That the vast interests of this country should be confided to such Itn jafunious patriots is a fearful reflec tion. IMs a consoling thought, how ever, to people ola sanguine tempera ment, tiiat, out of the 420,00U squalling mouths, only 42,00#can, by any possi bility, find twJTsoTfiai at least 378,000 must go away disappointed and fran tic. Here is a number, nearly equal to Grant's majority at the Presidential election, who may fe?l themselves called upon to disapprove the meas ures ofhis administration in 1872. "It's an ill wind that blows nobody uo good." THERE is hardly a single radical pa per in tlie State that does not admit that the legislatures of the last three or four years have been shamelessly corrupt, and recklessly extravagant in their appropriation of the public mon eys, and that the last legislature was the worst of them all. For several years the radical politieianshave prom ised reform in the legislature, but the l>eople renewed their trust only to be more outrageously deceived. At pres ent we are again regaled with the same promises which, of course, are only made to be again broken. The radicals cannot reform the legislature. Success intoxicates them and they reel and stagger on in their reckless career. They have cheated the people too of ten to bo trusted in the future. They may profess to in: never so friendly to reform, yet it needs but little discern ment to know "—their friendship all 11 cheat. Their smiles hypocrisy, their words deceit.'' BRIEF M.W.N ITEJIS. WASHINGTON, May 20.—A consular agent of our government who has resi ded at Cuba during tlie past year has arrived here, and to day had an in terview with the President for the pur pose of informing him respecting af fairs on the island. He gives his opin ion that theSpainish authorities will be unable to suppress the rebellion, and that the Insurgents will eventually establish their independence. He says that the Spanish troops are not famil iar with the mode of warfare adopted by the insurgents in fighting in de tachments and guerilla bands. If they would come out in open field and give battle the Spaniards would un doubtedly whip them. The warfare a dopted by the insurgents is harassing to the Spanish troops. The insurgent leaders inspire their troops by assuring them that reinforcements will constant ly he received from the United States, and that they have the sympathies of the Americans in their struggle for in dependence. When the sickly season sets in the ranks of the Spanish troops will be fearfully decimated by diseas es incident to the climate, to which they are not acclimated. It appears the parties who purchased the steam ram Atlanta from the Navy Depart ment some two weeks ago did not make purchase either for the Cubans or the Spaniards, but for Salnave, for the Dominican Government. Chicago, May 18.—The following military intelligence was received at General Sheridan's headquarters to-day; Lieutenant Mason Custer, writing from Fort Hayes, Kansas, May 10th, gives an account of the killing of some In dians who were confined at that point. The chiefs were ordered to he removed, in eare of the guard, from the cor ral to the guard-room, when they gathered in their tents and began the death whoop, and, takiug out their knives, attacted the soldiers. Cardigan attacted the sergeant of the guard, and was knocked senseless by a blow witii the butt of a musket. Sallie, a fero cious squaw, wielding a knife, tried to sheath it in the body of an officer, when one of the guard shot her dead. Big Head looked with scorn on the circle of bayonets surrounding him, and stubbed Sergeant Haze, dangerous ly wounding him in the back. A guard shot him dead. "Dull Knife" tried to stab everybody near him, and he was picked seriously by bayo nets. He and the senseless Cardigan were then disarmed and placed in the guardhouse. Omaha, May 18.—A wagon train of the Fifth Cavalry arrived at Fort Mc- Phorsou yerterday, under the com mand of Lieut. For bush. They report that seven companies of the I ifth Cav alry, under Gen. Carr, while moving from Kansas towards Fort McPherson, struck a camp of about 500 Cheyennes on the 13th ; a fight ensued, in which the I udians were defeated, leaving 25 warriors on the field and carrying off a large number of wounded. Gen. Carr lost three men killed ; one officer and two privates wounded.—Gen. Carr is still in pursuit, near Medicine Lake creek. A dispatch from Helena, Montana, says that from one hundred and fifty to two hundred Kantee Sioux attacked a settlement on Muscle Shell river on May Bth. Seventy white men remained in the stockade and sixty sallied out on the Indians, when a desperate fight ensued, lasting seven hours, and thir ty Indians were killed, including a half breed, and thirty were scalped. Tlie remainder escaped by swimming the river. One white man was killed and another badly wounded. It is re ported that reinforcements of from two to three hundred San tee Sioux are coming up to attack Muscle Shell a gain, but the whites are prepared fir tiera. On the 12th instant 159 persons were arrested in Paris for creating disturban ces. At Nismesa demonstration is re ported, on which occasion the people sang the Marseilles. At Bourges a pol itical agitator was forcibly released from jail. In the Department of Aubea riot occurred, in which blood was shed. Highly excited demonstrations occur red also at Marseilles and other pla ces. A girl eighteen years of age, living in Beeringsville, was burned to death on Wednesday by the explosion of an oil-can, from which site was pouring oil on a fire. Before assistance reached her she was completely envoloi>od in flames, and burned iu a most horrible manner, liar sufferings were so in tense that she lived but a few minutes. Nancy B. Madaii, of West Dedhnm, Massachusetts, was eonvietod of the murder of her son-in-law. WIIN ipwriwmmni nI r r IIIIMI. '. LLLWIII SSOf .mini. ii H iMTii—wMjl A disgraceful scene, illuminated with copious cursing and swearing, occurred in the Charleston (S. C.) Radical City Council, Wednesday night. A differ ence as to the powers of the Mayor was the casus betti. The row was confined to the white Aldermen; the negroes were miracles of decorum. A man named fsaac Wilson is charg ed in Bergen City, New Jersey, with getting bis brother, Robt. Wilson, in toxicated, and causing him to convey to him $2-3,000 worth of property.— Robert died some time since, and their is now suspicions of foul play of a still more serious character. The vigilance of the Spanish cruisers is so unceasing, and their number so large, that it is now most improbable that any hostile expedition can reach the Cuban coast. Reports to the con trary cannot be traced to any authen tic source. Last year there were 4,300 tons of merchandise shipped into the territory of Montana.. This year from the most available data, it is estimated that the shipments will reach 4.800 tons, an in crease of 500 tons. The first through passenger train from Sacramento, with about 500 pas sengers, arrived at Omaha on Sunday. The travel west from Omaha is very large. Twenty-five tons of strawberries were brought into San Francisco in April, and retailed at 12 to 15 cents a pound. Cherries sold at a dollar and a half per pound. Judge Watts, of North Carolina, lias sentenced Gus. Baker, Jim Thomas and George Bayline, the Wade Ditch murderers, to be hung on Friday, the 28th instant, at Halifax Courthouse. The decoration of the graves of the dead at Louisville yesterday was a most impressive affair. Three thou sand persons participated in the cere monies. The two Presbyterian General assem blies, Old and NewHi'hools, met sever ally in New York yesterday. Inter esting sermons were preached before each body. It is stated that two thousand adhe rents of Isabella are on the point of marching from France into Spaiu to fight for the restoration of their mis tress to the throne. Two millions in gold are to be sold weekly by the Asssistant United States Treasurer at New York, instead of one million, until further orders. The Atlantic cable company's ar rangements are now so complete that their is no longer any reason why mes sages should not be transmitted almost instantaneously between New York and London. One of the heaviest steam cutters in tlie service, the Mahoning, has been put on duty at New York, especially to prevent the departure of expeditions to Cuba. Commodore MeCauley, who has been in the United States naval service for sixty years, died at Washington, last week. The project for a telegraph Hue from Montreal, byway of Greenland, Ice land and the Faroe Islands, to Eng land, meets with favor in the Canadi an Parliament. The value of fish annually caught in the Illinois river and the small lakesin Greene co., 111., is $25,060, and this at the rate of two cents a pound. Sleeping cars on railroads furnishing food, liquor and refreshments to pas sengers are to be taxed as restaurants under the internal revenue law. Four political conventions are to be held by the colored men before the Ist of June—one In New York, two in Maryland, and one in Virginia. New York, ail the year round, says the Herald, spends on an average SIBO,OOO per week for musical and the atrical entertainments. The work on the rolling mill to l>e erected by the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company at Cumberland has been commenced. Failure to pay one's hotel bill was decided by a New York court on Thursday to be a penitentiary offence. During 1868 the railroads of Penn sylvania transported 1,751,970 tons of iron ore and 16,000,000 tons of coal. The untimbered plains between the Mississippi and the Pacific have an a rea of 1,000,000 square miles. A new revolving rifiugun, capable of being fired five hundred times a min ute, is on exhibition in San Francisco. A cargo of 251 tons of hard coal wrs sold at Savannah last Wednesday for $6 per ton. SUICIDE. —On last Saturday morn ing, the 15th inst., a young man nam ed Zachariah Heffley, residing at Ber lin, committed suicide by cutting his throat with a razor. Mr. 11. had been an invalid for several years, having contracted disease (pulmonary, we be lieve, in the a my, Co. F. 142 Reg't. P. V.) and recently was quite ill. On Friday night, we are informed, two persons had been with him and when they left him in the morning, nothing unusual was noticed in his demeanor. About six o'clock on Saturday morn ing, his wife was In his room and plar ced their little child by his side on the bed. Shortly afterwards, he requested her to remove the child which she did, and went into the kitchen to prepare some breakfast. A few minutes after wards another person entered the sick man's room and was horrified at fin ding him dead, with his throat cut and his lifeless handstill grasping the razor. It is not known how he got the razor, but it is probftbje that it hud been left about a window near which his bed stood, and which he might have reach ed from where he was lying. The gash extended from one aide ofthe neek to the other, leaving the carotid arter ies uninjured, hut the trachea was al most entirely severed, causing instan taneous death. —Somerset Democrat, The graves of soldiers, hurried in our Cemetery and Hrave-yards, will be decorated, in this vicinity, on Sunday next, at 1 o'clock, p. m.

Schenck's Pulmonic Syrup, Seaweed Tonic and Mandrake Pills, will cure Con sumption, Liver Complaint, and Dyspepsia, if ta ken according to directions They are all three to be taken at the same time. They cleanse the stomach, relax the liver, and put it to work : then the appetite becomes good ; the food digests and ; makes good blood; the patient begins to grow in flesh ; the diseased matter ripens in the lungs, and the patient outgrows the disease and gets well. This is the only way to cure consumption To these three medicines Dr. J. U. Schenck, of Philadelphia, owes his unrivalled success in the treatment of pulmonary consumption. The Pul monic Syrup ripens the morbid matter in the lungs, nature throws it off' by an easy expeetora tion, for when the phlegm or matter is ripe, a slight cough will throw it off, and the patient bus rest and the lung 3 begin to heal. To do this, the Seaweed Tonic and Mandrake Pills must be freely used to cleanse the stomach and liver, so that the Pulmonic Syrup and the food will make good blood Schenck's Mandrake Pills act upon the liver, removing all obstructions, relax the ducts of the gall-bladder, the bile starts freely, and the liver is soon relieved ; the stools will show what the Pills can do ; nothing has ever been invented ex cept calotnel (a dead!}' poison which is very dan gerous to use unless with great care), that will unlock the gall-bladder and starts the secretions of the liver like Schenck's Mandrake Pilis Liver Complaint is one of the most prominent causes of Consumption. Schenck's Seaweed Tonic is a gentle stimulant and alterative, and the Alkali in the Seaweed, which this preparation is made of, assists the stomach to throw out the gastric juice to dissolve the food with the Pulmonic Syrup, and it is made into good blood without fermentation or souring in the stomach. Tho great reason why physicians do not cure consumption is, they try to do too much ; they give medicine to stop the cough, to stop chills, to ! stop night sweats, hectic fever, and by so doing they derange the whole digestive powers, locking up the secre'ions, and eventually the patient sinks and dies. Dr. Scheuck, in his treatment, does not try to stop a cough, night sweats, chills, or fever. Re move the cause, aud they will all stop of their own accord, No one can be cured of Cousutnp. tion, Liver Complaint, Dyspepsia, Oataarh, Can ker, Ulcerated Throat, unless the liver and stom ach are made healthy. If a person has Consumption, ofcourse the lungs in some way are diseased, either tubercles, ab scesses, bronchial irritation, pleura adhesion, or the lungs are a mass of inflammation and fast de caying. In such cases what must be done ' It is not only the lungs that are wasting, but it is the whole fyody The stomach and liver have lost their power to make blood out of food. Now the only chance is to take Schenck's three medicines, which will bring up a tone to the stomach, the patient will begin to want food, it will digest easi ly anil make good blood : then the patient begins to gain in flesh, and as soon as the body begins to grow, the lungs commence to heal up, and the pa tiant gets fleshy and well. This is the only way to cure consumption. When there is no lung disease, and only Liver Complaint and Dyspepsia, Schenck's Seaweed Tonic and Mandrake Pills are sufficient without the Pulmonic Syrup. Take the Mandrake Pilis freely in all billions complaints, as they are per fectly harmless Dr. Schenck, who has enjoyed uninterrupted health for many years past, and now weighs 225 pounds, was wasted away to a mere skeleton, in the very last stage of Pulmonary Consumption, his physicians having pronounced his case hope less and abandoned him to his fate. He was cured by the aforesaid medicines, and since his reoovery many thousands similarly afflicted have used Dr. Schenck's preparations with tbo same remarkable success.
