Dear McPike The election in Philarlel
phia tells the same old storv the Democrats
were beaten heennsen their own surrender.
They pnnnot even find consolation in ths elec
tion of Km nith a nr. as his nomination was
effected t.ntside of their organization. If
the Democracy of this city can learn any
sense, the tat election will end all dual con
tests The Democratic vote of Philadelphia
fell short at least 20.000. Until some other
plan is devised for conducting the affairs of
Government, the duty of e ine to the elec
tion polls and votinsr is incumbent on every
man who is the possessor of his wits and ta
horintr under no illetml or physical d'sabiiirv.
The Democracy of Fhiladelrhia either did
not poll their full vote, or. if prilled, they
were polled for the hoss candidates. Making
allowance for all the senrrv Democrats the

Therf: is a strong b-.-iief prevailing at ;
Washington that Mr. Arthur will invite !
Mahone to a i!ace in his cabinet after
Congress meets in December. The i
Democratic Senators will have some-
the fact that Bailey's ma:ority over No
ble is 1.475. r l.lo. more that Cessna's
over Baer. Tiie withering retuike ad
ministered to Cessna by the voters of
that county reflects infinite credit noon
them, and his deserved and ignominious
defent ought to be a warning for al! t ime
to come to all other aspirants for judi
cial preferment. But while Cessna's
i own methods in conducting the CHin-
pai'M i-ere peculiar and wi'hout a par
allel, there was another phase or inci
dent connected with it meriting equal
censure. For some reason, into which
it is not material now to inquire. Judge
Hall, the President .In Ige of the dis
trict was extremely hostile to Cssna
becoming his successor, and a short time
before the election published a hitter
attdvmdjcj ;ve art icle reviewing Cessna's
political career, in which he poured out
;ii i l he viai.s of his wr.ilh on his devoted
head. No man in Pennsylvania occupy
ing Jtide Hall's position ever In-fore
prostituted it to such a low and unwor
thy purpose. and his conscience, if lie has
thine to say about this, if it ever coin' s
to pass. If the President at tea p's to ! ne, will upbraid him to the last hour of
boost into his cabinet a man who has j hisli-e. All his difficulties with John

While ail should be thankful, there are many

There was sincerity in the rumor that went
floating around in the newspapers of a formal
denial from (irant hat he was looking for
ward to a third term. The truth and sincer
ity of that statement is now manifest. Ar
thur is only a fb?nre-head. and the "Uuiteaii
Administration" as it is now termed is
(iranfi third term. The "fJuiteau Admin
istration" means (Jraotism and all the name
implies, it. means Clrant'sm. and (irantism
means noi!s. Orant is now in the hird
month of his third term, and is looking ahead
for The fourth term. Before the breath was
out of Garfield's vodv. Grant, with his bru
tal instincts the soldier who has ridden into
fame over th dead hodies of thousands of
his slaughtered soldiers was not appalled
hy the violent death of one more which
again opened up the wav to his personal ag
grandizement and political power. There is
no sentimental nonsense about Grant, and It.
! was for no respect or love for Garfield that
he visited Frnncklvn Cottage a few days he
fore Garfield' death, but it was in anticipa
tion ot what he knew was about to come to
i nans. As the Philadelphia Time' corres
pondent verv antlv and knowingly savs, "he
couldn't waif until the man was dead. He
was restless, planning fioruri lg it all out. and
pverv time he turned from this mental occu
pation to the sick man he was impatient at
the unnecessary delav of Providen-e. Meta
nhorienHv. he could have ridden his war
horse over the dvine man ami trampled the
life out of him with the same iron determina
tion with which he had often ridden to vic
tory before. When the end dnj come it was
what he had expected, and he stepped in as
coolly as if he were the undertaker. In fact.
Grant is a 'bigger' man to dav than when
fie was signing his rame as President, and
scooping in everything from a house and lot
to a bull pup. No other man ever lived who
lias such a complete grasp upon tbe sweet
meat and sugar plums of power." Grant
has succeeded Garfield in all save the name
and the responsibilitv of his acts. He is en
joing his third term ndviserllv, and i plan
ning and looking ahead for the fourth term.
The "Giuteaii Administration" is Grant's
third term Had he as-ended the (iuiteau
throne as Arthur did it would have canned a
reyo'iitmn. The country, frightened with
ttie shadow of Ca-snristn. would have- been
nn in arms at the idea of (;;esnr becoming
ruler by violence ; but Grant has succeeded
to the throne through Arthur and is enjoying i
its emoluments and power without any of
its responsibilities ; and when the spoils are
divided the country will realize that this is
, Grant's administration and not Arthur's
! Arthur is tmlv a fig-ire head, and Grant the
power behind the throne in the "(iuiteau
Administration." (1. N. S.

The veterinary department in vour valuable
paper is always read by me with great inter
est and I val ie the information received
from it a hundred fold more than the sma'l
amount paid for the paper. One year ago
you puhlished a letter from Dr. John Hates,
i relating the wonderful success he had had in
eurint pavim and splints with Kendall's
Spavin Cure, and his allusion to using it
1 now in h's practice for several human ail-
' nu-nts on account ol llie success ne nas ai
! wars had with it. The above statement
from so prominent a Physician gave me
; great faith in its efficacy, and as I had been
afflicted tor years with rheumatism and hin
joint lameness so bad that 1 could hardly
walk at times, I procured a tiotle and as it
has completely cured me I wish to proclaim
it to all tiie' wot Id as the most wonderful
discovery ever made for the benefit of a fillet
ed men as well p.s for the poor Imrse. tor
which it was first used. As this remedy
must he of incalculable value to the world, I
write this letter to express my thankfuine-s
to vou for ever mentioning it in vonr col
umns and to a-k another favor in behalf of
mv fellow men who are afflicted in hodv,
that you continue to make known to the
world, the great value of Kendall's Spavin
Cure for both man as well as beast.
Kespectfully yours,

the Iliiladclphia Timt thinks the people
haven't made any serious mistake in any of
tlieir judicial whirls.
Advices from Cape Coast Castle, dated
October 1ft, state that Information ha been
received there that the Kini of Ashantee has
killed two hundred young girls for the pur
pose of using their blond in mix ina mortar
for the repair of one of the State buildinga.
The report of the massacre was received
from a refugee who was to have been one of
the victims. It receives some confirmation,
also, in the fact that such wholesale mnssa
cres are knowu to lie a custuru with tbe
K1U2.
nr.ATH TO WORM.

to destroy pin. sr.it. round, thread and stoma, h
worm. Till Worm Syrnp is a plea-ant. safe and
efteetutd reme.ly fr 'l kinds of worms. As most
of the worm medicines oflered to the putd.p are
preparations so nauseating and disrncreeable to the
taste that it is almost impossible to iret child to
take them. It is the most desirable remedy that
run be riven lor worm. It has neither tho taste
nor smell of medicine, and ran be riven In the
most delicate infant with pertcrt safety. The Gen
eral symptoms of worms are a sallow complexion,
with a bluish circle around the eyes, enlargement
ot (the abdomen and stomach, foul breath, icnaw
Inir p.iins in the stomach and bowels, irregular ap
petite, startnms or rin.linir of the teeth while
asleep, etc. it is a lamentnnlo tact that hundreds
of children are hurried to the grave on account of
the above svmptoms i.flnn beinn taken for some
otherdlsetise. where s many might have been saved
simply by the use of E. F. Kunkel's Worm Nvrup.
It is undoubtedly the must valuable worm svrup
that ean be had for alt kinds ol stomach, seat", pin
and thread worms. "an be nsed bv old and vounu,
