Hon. Marshall Jewell, ex-Governor of
Couecticut, and now Minister to Russia,
has been appointed Postmaster-General
vice Cresswell, vice Hale, resigned. Mr.
Jewell has accepted the appointment,

will return home from Russia to enter
upon its duties. Cresswell will.act until
his successor arrives.
The Fort Wayne Gaulle has been fig
uring on the wages and living expenses
of the railroad employes in the shops of
that city, and concludes as follows: A
man and his wife and three children, we
will say, constitute the workingman's
family. He pays for groceries per month
say $25; rent 810; which amounts in one
year to 8420 ; add to this $5O for fuel,and
we have $470 to be deducted from his an
nual receipts, $648, which is $l7B for
clothing for his whole family, doctor's
bills, school books, etc. Reduce this one
half, according to the new order for five
hours, wcrking time, and it will puzzle
any one to see how the man can live.
The centennial board of finance alter
receiveing bids from several parties for
the erection of the memorial building and
the main exposition building for the Cen
tennial, have decided to award the con
tract for their erection to Mr. Richard J.
Dobin the well known:builder of Philadel
phia, he being the lowest bidder. His
contract will amount to over $2,500,000
on these buildings. The board adopted
the plans-prepared by Mr. H. J. Schwarz
man, engineer of the United States Cen
tennial Commission, for the permanent
building, and the plans prepared by. Mr.
Henry Pettit, consulting engineer to the
Commission, for the temporary or main
exhibition building.
The floods in Louisiana have left the
submerged districts in a far better condi
tion as regards sugar and rice plantations
than could hare been looked for by the
most sanguine. While in some districts
the sugar crop is hopelessly lost, this is
made up by a large acreage in cultivation
and large proportionate yield elsewhere. In
addition to this the weather since the flood
has been unusually favorable for laying
by crops, and the season is nearly a
month ahead of last year's. The rice dis
tricts are in a still more promising condi
tion. The crevasses in Plaquemines Par
ish, by far the most important rice grow
ing district, were closed early, and the
prospects are excellent. Altogether 6,030
acres more than last year are cultivated
with rice. While, therefore, the floods
have caused immense suffering in the
South, the disastrous consequences have
not been as deplorable as was at firsf sup
posed.
About this season of the year Irk out
for candidates who have "claims" upon
the suffrages of the dear people. Claims
are usually based upon locality partisan
ship. The candidate lives at a point of
the euperficies whence a public officer
ought to be derived, or, he hes so firmly
believed or acted upon certain politcal
convictions that he ought to be rewarded
for his believing. It needs but a mo
ment's reflection to discredit this whole
doctrine of proprietorship in any part of
the public services. The offices are the
free gift of the people, and the people
will be best served by the fittest men no
matter where they live or what they be
lieve. Self-respect will deter men who
properly value themselves and the equal
rights of others from defeating a free
choice by any personal interference. Un
der the terms of the constitution it will
riot be any longer age for candidates or
their friends to undertake to incline
the scale of judgment by the use of mon
ey. The use of money by candidates is
a misdemeanor. ' It is a pity the rule
could not be extended so as to bar solici
tation in any form further than a simple
announcement of permission to use a
particular office. It would most wonder
fully simplify and purify our politics if
the choice which is theoretically existent
in the people, of selecting their servants
could have an unbiased exercise.
Ohe Vs sore of It
. Since his induction into office, &ore-
Gary of the Treasury Bristow, has at least
attracted the publio attention with the
promptness and decision of his acts. So
far this publicattention has not been un
favorable to the Secretary, but the reverse.
Re seems to be imbued with the idea that
the statesmen of the past generation and
ante-war times were not altogether fools,
and that the old-time public virtue to
which we are wont to refer as a people, is
not wholly a myth and ought to be en
couraged in high places even in this day.
He Cedes from a State where they —Can
cate men in a different school of politics
than profligate Radicalism, which is one
advantage in his favor. He,.appears, so
far as we are now able to judge, to thiuk
that honesty, economy, justice and fair
dealing should not be confined solely to
the walks of private life, but ought to be
carried into public trusts as well. He has
struck one very positive blow at such jobs
as the Leet Stocking affair that scan•
dalized the country a few.years ago. Un
der the provisions of the late bill revising
the custom laws, it is required that the
cartage of merchandise in the hands of
the government must be left, after thirty
days notice, to the lowest bidder. After
Secretary Bristow had prepared the re
quired advertisment, he learned that a
Ring had been formed in New York,Bos
ton, Baltimore and at other places, - for
the purpose of first securing the contracts
and sub-letting them to other parties, the
Ring pocketing the difference.
Upon being made aware of this fact,
the Secretary inserted a proviso in the
advertisement to the effect that no bid
would be considered, unless the bidder
shOuld personally stipulate to superintend
and be himself responsible for the execri-
Lion of the contract. Of course this
smashed the Ring to atoms at once, and
made the new Secretary a great many
enemies among the thieves who have
hitherto been bleeding the Treasury and
running the Radical party of the country.
While such work on the part of Mr.
Bristow does not promise much good to
the cause of the average Radical politician
it will be fully appreciated by the Ring
ridden public.
Scathing Review at Radicalism.
Our readers well know the corruptions,
the usurpetions, the frauds,the tyranny of
the Republican party, its President and
its leaders, but to have the more impor
tant of these rascalities condensed into, one
article will be handy for reference. No
thing that we could write would so well
arraign the Radical part y,as the letter of
Hon. F. A. Conkling, a Liberal Repub
lican, and brother of Senator Roscoe
Conkling, written in answer to an invita
tion to be present at the annual Fourth of
July celebration at Tammany Hall. As
a former eminent Republican, his words
have unusual significance, and coming
from an honest true leader of the Libor
al Republican element of New York, it
shows that with the ex . ception of the few
poltical office seekers who left the Radic
al party during the Greeley campaign,
the Liberals stand side by side with the
Democracy, fighting for good, honest
pure goverment, and intend to continue
the battle let the reverses he as frequent
as they may, until victory shall at last
crown their efforts, and a glorious uni
ted, peaceful, happy, prosperous people
make up the States of this upion. We
cannot do better than give the following
letter of Hon. F. A. Conkling, in full,
hoping that all of our readers may care
fully peruse it :
NEW YORK, July, 1, 1874
The Rom ,lugustua Schell.
SIR: As a ReptlbliMl 'I thank you_for
the invitation with which you have hon
ored me to sit in conference with the
Tammany Society on the anniversary of
American Independence. The recurrence
of this day, so illustrious in our annals,
should stimulate us all to a more earnest
consideration of the duties which we owe
to oar country.
Disaster and bankruptcy unparalleled in
duration and extent since the year 1840,
overshadow the held. Our great leading
industries are prostrated. Commerce lan
guishes, manufactories are paralyzed,and
Agriculture no longer. finds a remunera•
tive market for her products. Thousands
of operatives, laborers, and mechanics are
out of employment, suffering with their
families the pangs of hunger, and sure
when winter comes to experience more
terrible privations.
Not more deplorable than in the general
degradation of morals and the prevalence
of crime and disorder. Official corrup.
tiorri extortion, and defalcation find their
parallel in private and corporate extrava•
gance, pecnlation,and profligacy. =ln ser
end of oar Southern States a condition
of things exists which no pen can fully
describe. Every crime enumerated in
the decalogue is committed with impuni
ty, and as a consequence society is fast
relapsing into chaos. Thus a vast area
of unsurpassed fertility which ought to
add largely tit the general prosperity is
sunk into the depths of poverty and deg
radation.
The evils are in a great measure the
fruit of misiovernment at Washington.
The constitution and laws are habitually
violated. A military despotism has sup
planted the forms of civil administration.
An ignorant, imperious, and self willed
chieftan, mistaking the eminence of sta
tion for the supremacy of wisdom, assumes
to control the legislation of the country
and a subservient Congress basely submits
to the usurpation.
In flagrant defiance of public opinion
the President ostentatiously appoints
venal men to positions of highest dignity
a nd importance, and upholds them in,
their iniquities with all the authoritrof
his high office. If the Secretary of the
treasury is convicted of perjury, and so
forced to retire from the situation which
ho has dishonored, the President translera
him to the bench of the Court of Claims.
If a notorious public malefactor is legis
lated out of office, the Aesident makes'
him his boon companion
. and nominates
him for a post analogous to the one of
which he has just been deprived. When,
on the eve of its adjournment, Congress
is occupied with a bill to abolish therrov
ernment of the District of Columbia, the
'President Beads to it a spicial message ma'
ommeniling an increased . rate of interest
on certain'`-bonds held by the malefactor
and his accomplices the - effect of which
would have been the adding of one half a
million to their dishonest gains. If an
honest engineer testifies under oath, be
fore a committee of Congress, to facts
branding his tools with infamy, the Pres
ident attempts to arrest his evidence by
ruthlessly turning him out of office, thus
perpetrating an insult upon the privileges
of a coordinate branch of the Government
which ought to have led to his impeach
ment. When the citizens of a sovereign
State relying upon the -guarantee in the
Constitution of their coon try,of the right
to petition the Government for the redress
of their grievances, humbly approaching
his presenc,e,the President, in the interest
of the indicted thief who holds the office,
of Govornor of the State, treats them in
a manner which has deprived more than
lkOe king of his crown, if it has not
brought him to the block. Pretending
to be govorned by the civil service reform
the President appoints a Postmaster in
Philadelphia, a Collector of Custom in
Boston, and a General Appraiser in New
York, to say nothing of scores of minor
places throughout the country, in the
grossest violation of these rules.
But the President is not alone censur
able. Rarely has a Congress assembled in
the national Capital from which so much
was needed, but which has proved itself
so utterly imbecile and worthless. Du
ring a session of nearly seven months it
has failed to accomplish any legislation
for the revival of business and the resto
ration of general prosperity. Employing
its time in endless debates on the double
salary steal one investigating committees,
it has reformed no abuse and has brought
no offender to justice. No endeavor has
been made to restore a lawful Govern
ment in the States distracted and invol
ved in bloodshed, as the result of military
or fraudulent elections. The men who
make a farce of government in ,South
Carolina have not only escaped censure
hut have been encouraged in their crimes.
While Democrats in New York were
bringing to justice the men wbo had in
flicted odium and disgrace upon the Dem
ocracy. Congress was whitewashing the
villainies which had been perpetrated by
the leaders of the dominant party.
The imperative demand of patriotism
in the present crisis of our public affairs
is to secure the election of a majority of
honest men to the next House of represen
tatives. By this means, the corruption,
crimes and infamy which have been so
studiously hidden from public view by a
venal majority will be dragged into the
full light of day, and, what is of intintely
greater importance, the election of Grant
for a third term will be rendered impossi
ble.
The time has come for honest men to
waive their personal interests and prefer
ence, and to unite against this Adminis
tration. The great Roman orator defined
true public virtue to consist in the steady
sacrifice of priilate interests and passions
to the public good. We have reached a
crisis in our history which loudly colts for
each devotion. The Grant party hopes to
continue its ascendancy by placing the
representatives of two new rotten-borough
States in the Senate ; and to retain its
majority in the House, as well as in the
several States, by maintaining divisions
in the ranks of its adversaries. Not is
this an. It is not too much to say that, in
the approaching elections, the whole en
ginery of fraud, corruption and intimida
tion will be set in motion by these as
sassins of liberty.
Let as then with a single purpose, from
this time forth, advance in concert for
the overthrow of venality, usurpation,and
despotism. The Centenary of our Na
tional Independence approaches. Let us
here highly resolve that it shall be signal
ized by a new birth of freedom, and that
government of the people, by the people,
and for the people, shall not perish from
the earth.
Faithfully yours,
F. A. CONKLING
An Appeal to the Country
St. Paul, ainn. July 9.—Since the ap
peal of Governor Davis of this State to
the War Department, mentioned in to
night's Associated Press dispatches, is
likely to be denied because of insufficiency
of the law, it is, time for the people of the
United States to be informed that utter
wide-spread destitution exists in the south
western counties of this State among the
new settlers, whose crops have been dis
troyed for two years, and that urgent ap
peals must be made to the benevolent
everywhere for contributions in aiif of
starving people, who own farms, under
homestead and pre-emption laws,.but are
unable to obtain subsistence from their
farms because of the destruction caused
by grasshoppers. Contributions of mon
ey or clothing should be addressed to Gen

DRILLLIAT RECORD OF CURER.
An American humorist tells us that it would
have been money in his pocket if he bud been
born without a stomach- and then proceeds to
figure up the cost of a chronic dyspepsia. to
whichlie is a martyr, and which he says it is
Impossible to cure. On this point, "Josh Bil
lings," (for ho Is the party referred to is mists
ken. Male's his stomach differs from all other
dyspeptic stomachs, Hostetter's Bitters will
cure ham in les..than three months. This it
would be safe to guarantee under any penalty.
There are a few, a very few, actual specifics for
disease in existence, and Bestows stomach'
Bitters may be set down as one of them. In
case ofintligestion it never fails. Persons whn
had suffered for many years almost every con
ceivable species of torture from this agonizing
complaint, have been permanently cured with
the Bitters in six weeks. Hundreds of such in
stances aro on record, authenticated by the les
ttmony of prominent men in every walk of life
eminent physicians among the number. 'But
this celebrated vegetable preparation Is some.
thing snore than a stomachic and tonic. It is
also turattemative of wonderitil virtue. In liv•
Cr complaint its effect is as direct and immedi
ate as-that of mimel or blue pill, and far more
Salutary ; and in all diseased conditions of the
bowels, notable in cases of constipation, Its .
regulating properties are In the highest degree
serviceable. The new settlements in the west
and all lowdying tracts of country inlested
with miasmatic exhalations, so fruitful at this
season, of the various types of intermittent fev
ers, should be always well stocked with thi. in
comparable chologue, which will curt any case
of fever and ague in a period varying from three
days to three or four weeks, according to the
violence of the complaint. Nervous disorders
which are always aggravated by the adultera
ted liquors usually prescribed by physicians,are
readily cured by a course of this admirable com
bination medicine, in which the properties of
a stimulant, a tonic and alternative are happily
blended.

pheru experienced here during the summer
months, the lethargy produced by the heat takes
away the desire for wholesome food, and fre
quent persplmtions reduce bodily energy, par
ticularly those suffering from the effects of de
bilitating diseases. In order to keep a natural
healthful activity of the system, we must resort
to artificial means. For this purpose Scenck's
Sea Weed Tonic is very effectual. A few doses
will create an appetite and fresh vigor to the
enervated body. For dyspepsia, it is invalua
ble. Many emminent physicians have doubted
whether dyspepsia can be permanently cured
by the drugs which are generally employed for
that purpose. The Sea Weed Tonic in Its na
ture is totally different front such drugs. It
contains no corrosive minerals or acids ; in fact
It assists the regular operations of nature, and
supplies her deficiencies. Time tonic in its na
ture so much resembles the gastric Juice that It
is almost identical with that fluid. The gastric
juice is the natural solvent which, in a healthy
condition of the body, causes the food to be di
paled ; and when this juice is not excreted in
sufficient quantities, indigestion, with all Its
distressing symptoms, follows. The Sea Weed
Tonic performs the duty of the gastric Juice
when the latter is deficient. &cluck's Sea
