The President said to the Texas poli
ticians during their late visit here, that
.the Administration cannot give its influ
ence to aid the people to full restoration
before Congress, unless they elect men to
office who can take the test oath, choose
a Legislature that will promptly ratify
the fourteenth and fifteenth amendments
to the Constitution, and make laws secur
ing the most complete equality and pin
tection to all- classes of citizens. He
does not yet, so far as is known, expreas
a preference either for Hamilton or DaVis
as Governor.
A letter was received on Friday from
C. Gordon Adams resigning his position
of United States District Attorney of
Southern Mississippi. Adams was
charged with desertion from the Repub
lican party, and with manipulating the
Dent movement for the purpose of des.
troying the party in Mississippi. Wof•
ford, the Postmaster Of. Corinth, was
suspended from office Thursday. •It was
the intention of the President to have
suspended Adams, but his resignation
renders that task unnecessary. Adams,
in his letter of resignation, is very bitter
in his denunciation of theßadical Repub
licans of Mississippi, and is especially
severe on Gen. Ames, the military corn
mander`of the State.
The published opinions of the President
relative to the parties in thebouth has had
a dampening effect upon the few Conser
vative Southerners who are here. There
were several Federal office holders among
them, who, supposing that the President
really sympathized with the Conserva
• fives, were, preparing to go over to that
party. The conversation with General
Tarbeil has removed all doubts on that
subject, and to-day it is difficult to find
any than among the Southern politicians
now in this city who ever entertained any
but the most radical sentiments. Repub
licans are, of course, jubilant. They re
gret, however, that the President's views
were not made public earlier as they be
lieve it would have given a different turn
to the Tennessee election.
The course that the Administration will
pursue in regard to exacting the test oath
from the members of the Virginia Legis
lature, is still in doubt. It is understood
that the view taken by Judge-Advocate
-General Holt is that the law is impera
tive, and General Canby has no discre
tion in the matter, except to enforce it.
The propriety of doing this is what he
wants settled before any order is issued
on the subject. Reports differ as to the
feeling oflthe President in the matter.
Some say he will insist upon the oath
being taken* by the members-elect, and
others argue that, to harmonize contend
ing parties, it will be quietly ignored.
General Canby left this morning, so a
few days will develop what policy will be
pursued.
From a high official source it is learned
that General Canby's recent trip to Wash
ington was made at the request of Presi
dent Grant, who desired to consult with
him about affairs in Virginia. At the
Cabinet meeting on. Tuesday the Presi
dent made known the substance of what
General Canby had said, and expressed
an opinion that the peculiar condition of
• political affairs in Virginia demanded his
retention there. Strong appeals had been
made by the Mississippi Conservatives to
transfer Canby to that State, but to this
the President—in which the Cabinet con
curred—objected. Some talk ensued as
to whether the test oath ought to be re
quired of members of the Virginia Legis
lature or not. - The President said Gen.
Canby favored the exaction, of it, and in
this he undoubtedly was right, and he
-did not in-tend to interfere. Those mem
bers of the Cabinet who have expressed
any opinion at all approved of requiring
the test oath to be taken.
The colored conservatives of Virginia
bare issued a congratulatory address to
the colored voters upon the result of the
recent State election, and calling upon
them to organize political clubs to sup
port Walker, for the purpose, the address
says, "to strengthen his hands in carry
ing out, in letter and spirit, the recon:
struction acts of Congress and the policy
of the President, so far as they . relate to
Virginia." The entire address is temper
ate in tone, and is free from any senti
ments which can be, regarded as a desire
to keep alive,lhese dissensions which
<aimed a - division in the Republica.' ranks
in the _recent contest. Those who -sign
the addriss sfyle themselves earnest Re
publicans and firm believers in Republican
The Working People.
A partial strike prevails at present
among the bricklayers of New York city,
in consequence of the increase of appren
tices employed by the masters. The or
igin of the strike is as follows : On the
formation of the Bricklayer's Unions an
agreement was, entered into with the em
ployers, whereby the latter covenanted
not to employ more than two apprentices
at one time. At the time of the eight
hour strike, the employers complained of
the hardships endured by them in conse
quence of the restriction of the number of
apprentices. The workmen took this
into consideration, and the employers
were allowed to employ more apprentices.
It is now asserted tnat the number of ap
prentices has been unreasonably in
creased, and last week Bricklayers' Union
No. 2 ordered a strike. At a meeting of
Union No. 4, the general opinion was ex
pressed that a strike at the present time
would be 111-thned, from the immense
numberof non-society men and emigrants
now seeking employment, and the near
approach of the fall, and the importance
of making as Much money as possible be
fore winter. It was finally resolved that
no action should be taken in the matter
at present, as the strike of No. 2 was con
eidered hasty and unreasonable. The
tailors' strike in New York still con
tinues, with no immediate prospect than
an agreement as to prices will be arrived
at. The plate printers' strike also still
continues.
• A, partial strike prevails Jn New York
• city among the cabinet makers. The
,strikers, who were employed by one es.
tablishment, are being supported by the
• Cabinet Makers' Union, at the rate of ten
dollars a week each. A strike is in.pro.
gress among the coopers of Cleveland,
Olno, in consequence of a reduction by
the bosses of five cents in prices paid per
b a r*. 68reng,efforts are being Made to,
render the strike general, and a fund Is
being raised Wherewith to support those
strikers who may need assistance. The
coopers number two; thousand, of whom
nine hundred, employed by twelve firms,
are on a strike The journeymen masons
of Newark, N. J. i who have been on a
strike, have accepted the proposition of
the employers to pay lour , dollars a day,
and the men 1011 go to work at that rate.
The shoemakers employed by a large
firm in Newark, N. J. have struck in

Packer's 'secession Record
When the news came to Mauch Chunk,
whilst the Charleston Convention was
yet in session, that - Judge Packer had
taken a decided stand for and with Jeff.
Davis and Breckinridge, and against
Douglas, he was openly and bitterly de.
by William R. Otis, A. G. Broad
head, Jack Taylor, and the other real
and professing friends of Douglas in
Mauch Chunk. And when, after Douglas
had received the required majority of two
thirds, and became the regular Democratic
nominee for President, Mr. As z Packer
bolted the nomination, and joined the "
secessionists, and afterwards, at Baltimore,
participated in the nomination and voted
for:John C. Breekinridge as the secea.
don candidate for President, he was
yet more severely denounced by a
majority of the Democrats of Carbon
county. And after his return home,
in conversation with the writer of
this article, Judge Packer openly and
unconditionally denounced Douglas as a
demagogue, and expressed his purpose
to support Breckinridge, regardless of
consequences. Very soon, two of the
gentlemen named—Messrs. Broadhead
and Taylor—changed from Douglas to
:Breckinridge, whilst Win. R. Otis-, also a
leading local politician of Mauch Chunk,
remained firm. , The Carbon Democrat,
also, yeilded to Packer and changed from
Douglas to Breckinridgo.i "Neither
Judge Packer nor any of his home friends
will deny a word we have stated in re
gard to his bolt from the Charleston Con.
vention, and his open identification with
the avowed 'secessionists of the cotton
States. Nor will they deny that in 1855
he bolted the nomination of Hon. George
R. Barrett, the regular Democratic can
didate for President Judge of the Court
of the Carbon District, and his Support of
Bell the independent Know Nothing can
didate. .-
THE Davenport Democrat tells of a sin.
gular case of superstition: "Chatting with
an aged lady, we noticed the- wonderful
preservation and beauty of her teeth, and
could not refrain from mentioning it.
'Yes,' said she, never had a toothache
or lost a tooth, because I bit the snake.'
On inquiry she stated that, when children
at home, her father had made them bite a
rattlesnake, he holding the reptile by the
head and tale; each child bit along the
entire length of the backbone—not vio
lently, but just so as to indent the skin;
and this was considered an infallible
recipe against toothache and decay, and
which. the old lady believes up to the
e resent hour." • •
A ItirriforitsT bishop preached recent
ly in the Tabernacle of Salt Lake, and
when he had concluded Brigham Young
"improved" on his sermon by rising and
saying 'that the preacher had spoken of
the believer as being received into the
bosom of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob in
the • world to, come. Now, I could not
help thinking," he continued, "that all
believers would, in that case, be received
into the bosom of a set of polygamists.
THE Republican majority in Alabama,
at the election last week for Congressmen
and Legislature, foots up mete than 10,000.
Last fall the State only gave 4,000 for
Grant. A great many Democrats have
come over to the Republican ranks, being
sick, tired and disgusted with a party
that was good for nothing except to find
fault, cavil, sneer,. cheat, lie and embroil
its country in civil war.

Dn. B. F. Bauw - Ea, formerly of Titus
ville, has been nominated by the Repub
licans of Chatanqua county, IC. Y., for
the Legislature. He was well and favor

this section will be glad to learn that bis
worth is appreciated by the people of his
adopted home.
Povrzus, the sculptor, who knew Old
H ckory well, says his terrific "By the
Eternal!" and rampagious howling was
always purely acting for effect, and that
he could be cowed down easier than most
men who make less noise.

tar ISCHENCILIS PULMONIC
bYBUP SEAWEED TONIC AND*
MANDRAILt PILLS will cure Consumption,
Liver Complaint and Dyspepsia, if taken accord
atg te directions. They are all three to be taken
the sametime. They cleanse the stomach, re
lax the livor and put it to work; thee the appetite
becomes good; the food digests and makes good
blood; the patient begins to grow in flesh: the
diseased matter ripens into the lungs, and the
patient ootgrows tie disease and gets well. This
is the only way to cnre consumption.
To these three medicines Dr. J. H. Schenck. of
Philadelphia. owes his unrivaled success in the
treatment of pulmonary Consumption. The Put
monic Syrup ripens the morbi•i matter in the
. lungs, nature throws it off by au east' expectora
tion, for when the phlegm or matter is ripe a
sits ht cough w ill throw it off. and the pattent, has
rest and the lungs begin to heal.
T • do.thts, the Seaweed 'ionic and Mandrake
Pills must be neely nied 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 onets of tile
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 touslecaa deadly poison wi.ich is very dan
gerous unless with great care,) that will
unlock the gall bladder and start the secretions
of the liver like Schenck's Mandrake Pills.
Liver Complaint id one of tffeWlist 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 ot, assists the
stomach to turow out the gastric (nice to dissolve
the food with the Puimonlc Syrup, and it is made
into good b ood without fermentation or souring
In the stomach.
The great reason why physiciars do not cure
Consumption is, they try to do tars 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. lock
ing up the secret ions, and eventually the patient
sinks and dies.
Dr. Schenck, in his treatment, does not try_ to
stop a cough, night sweats, chills or fever. -Re
move the cause, and tee) , will all stop of their
own accord. No one can be cured of Consump
tion, Liver Complaint, Dyepepsia, thstarrn,
Canker, 'Ulcerated 'Throat, unless the Liver and
etotaacti are made healthy.
If a person nas consumption, of course the
nags In some way are diseased, either tubercles,
abcesses, bronchial irritation, pleura adhesion,
or the lungs are a mass of Inflammation and fast
decaying. In such cases what must be done? it
is not only the lungs tna; are wasting, but it is
the whole body. The stomach and liver have lost
their power to make blood out of fo d. Now the
only chance is to rake Dr. Schenck's three medi
cines, which will bring up a tone to the stomach,
the patient will begin to want food. It will digest
easily and make good blood; then the patient be
gins to gain in flesh, and as soon as the body be
gins to grow, the lungs commence to heal up.
and the patient gets tit shy and well. Thisillthe
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, e Mout
the Pulmonic Syrup. Take- the Mane rake Pitts
freely in cl billions complaints, as they are per
fectly harmless.
Dr. Schenck, who has enjoyed uninterrupted
health fur many years past, and now weighs 2:45
