He pays his health is con stantly improving, and he hopes to (toon resume his place in the Senate. Sn far the contest hetweep the friends of the Republican Residen tial candidates has been remarka My pood natured. A few hot-headed fools have thrown t-tons, and have found themselves suddenly floored for their brutality. ' Cf.xekal IUti.kk continues to b ji few delegates every now and then, and as he is a delegate and will lead Lis own force in e Ien erratic Na tional Convf.'.'i"ii. there isn't a Democratic journal in the country dare tay "spoons,'" once. A great meeting of the business men of New York was held in that city on Tueiday night of last week, ut" which Rresident Arthur was strongly endorsed for re-election, and a committee of one hundred was ap pointed t go to Chicago in his inter ests. It is very evident now, to all but those who are determined not to seei that Samuel J. Tilden will receive the unanimous nomination of the Democratic party, unless before the meeting of the convention he states, over his own signature, that he will not accept it. Carl, Sciii kz, who dropped out ol the public gaze some time since, has suddenly emerged from hie retire ment to inlorm the Nation in behalf of himself and of a clique styling themselves the Independent Repub lican party, that neither Rhine nor Arthur can receive their support, and consequently that neither can be elected. Last account showed that nobodv was badlv scared. Mr. Vayxe MacYeagh, in the guise of a letter to Mr. Benjamin F. Rristow, makes an abusive attack upon President Arthur, which caa not fail, by the inevitable recoil from ita spiteful violence, to strengthen the latter in the public esteem, while it will go far to justify the President's action in not including Mr. MacYeagh among the members f the Garfield Cabinet which he de sired to jiermanently remain as members of his own. The sensibil ities of patriotic men of all parties will be shocked by the indecent re mark of Mr. MacYeagh that "Guit eau was the original Arthur man." At the last election in Copiah County, Mississippi, Print Matthews was deliberately murdered, in full view of twenty witnesses, in pursu ance of a threat previously made, that his life dejndd on whether he should attempt to vote the Republi can ticket. He voted, and was im mediately shot down by Ross Wheeler. Wheeler has just been tried, and although the evidence was all one way, and there was no denial of the previous threat, and a score of witnesses tsstified to the unprovoked shooting, the jury acquitted him and he is asain at large. The murder of a Republican by a Democrat is no offense in the eyes of this Copiah county jury, and it only illustrates the state of public feeling in most of the Southern States. Is it to be wondered at that the Solid South ia Democratic, when elections ar con ducted in this manner? KEVIEWIXG THE FIELD. On Wednesday of last week, in Congress, the motion to unseat Peele t Rep ) of Indiana, and put English (Dem.) who is the son of the candi date for Yice President four years since in his seat, was defeated, twenty-eight Democrats refusing to swallow the nasty dose. But on the next day the vote was reconsidered, and English, of whose case Mr. Boyle, the Democratic member from the Fayette district, in thi State, said : "There is not a court in Penn sylvania in which such a case could stand an Lour," was seated, and the man who was elected was turned out. Governor English was on the floor penly lobbying forhis son, and a committee has been appointed to iovestigate his conduct. It is charg ed that his money was freely used to persuade Democrats that his son was entitled to the seat. The voters of the district, without distinction of party, are said to be very indignant over seating a man they did not elect. Profcpccls of Candidates. Washington-, D. C. May 23 The political gossips during the past week have placed Arthur in the Presidential race. The mass meet ing of the business men in New York Wayne MacYeagh's foolish letter and many other things have conspired to give Arthur strength. Mr. Blaine's friends are none the less sanguine and almost any one of them stands rady with a pencil to figure out "Blaine's nomiaation on the second ballot sure.'' During the last three days 6ome of the most prominent of Mr. Blaine's supporters here visited his house. Stray uelegates from dif ferent parts of the South have wan dered up to the capital en route for Chicago hoping perhaps to galher a little information to help them to vote "intelligently " in the conven tion. It is easy to find every variety of opinion from the enthusiastic Mr. Bayne on the Blaine tide, who re peats Lis "451 on the lirst ballot"' with painful monolany, to the cheer ful Mr. Warren of New York, who is confident that "good sense" and Ar thur votes will control the conven tion, or the urbane ex-Governor Stewart, of New York, who thinks icebergs and Edmunds will prevail. Mr. Cuilom, of Illinois, smiles bland ly when abked to give figures about Ivogan, and says "really I cannot talk on that subject; Mr. Logan is satisfied with the progress of his can vass. Yes, I admit little has been said about him lately. That is just what he desires. You will discover, however, before the convention is over that Logan is in the field," and then Mr. Cullom relapses int silence or discusses the prospect of an early adjournment, and whether the supply of Apoilinaris water will give out before that interesting event takes place. edmlnds' strength. Gov. Stewart has entire charse of the Edmunds' boom. He will tell you frankly that he doos not expect to see Edmunds nominated on the .first ballot nor on the second. "Ed munds' stronghold," he says, "lies in the fact that he Ins not gotten the ill will of any of the other candi dates." Suggest" the Phelps' corre spondence to him and Mr. Stewart will smile rather grimly for a mo ment and reply, "Ah ! yes. I had not forgotten that, but I don't believe it.

Mr. Sherman is becoming th ob ject of considerable attention. He is nosins as Mr. Blaine's "heir." OTHER ASriRANTS. Mr. Logan's friends claim, how ever, that the Illinois chieftain will share part of the inheritance. Senator Lulioui will start lor Chi cago to-morrow to take personal command of Mr. Logan's boom. He will open his headquarters on 1 ues day and will be ready then to treat with the delegates who have not yet made up their minds. Mr. Lincoln is watching the pro ceedings from a distance. He has not yet openly entered the arena. He attends to his duties at the War Department regularly, and bevond being at times a little absent minded and preoccupied, his assistants have noticed no marked change in mm. It is probable, however, that more will be heard of him during the week. Already statements are in circulation showing his eminent fit ness for the first place on the ticket in the event of a deadlock. Mr. Edmunds does not thaw out much as the convention day draws near. He repels all advances and his friends have about given up his case as hopeless. It is understood now that John Stewart, of Pennsylvania, will pre sent Blaine's name to the conven tion. Stewart was the Independent candidate for Governor in Pennsyl vania in 1SS2, but has since rejoined the Republican ranks.

Ti.e cere monies incidental to the dedication of the Luther statue, which stands in front of the Memorial Lutheran Church, were concluded this after noon, when the statue was formally unveiled. The exercises took place at a plat form built about the pedestal, which covered the entire parking in front of the church, and when the exer cises began the 1,2U0 seats provided were filled, and many spectators were standing on the walks and in the streets. Directly in front of the statue were seated the speakers, and above them was stretched a canvas as a protec tion from the sub. A blue cord was suspended at one side and was con nected with the American flair, which concealed the statue Iroin view.

It is ad mitted without cavil, that Blaine and Arthur are' largely in the lead, but political gossips differ widely in their opinion as to which will event ually show up as the winning man. For the past week little has been said about "dark horses," and the friends of the two leading candidates have been bending all their energies to further the success of their favor ite. Every variety of opinion is ex pressed, and it i easy for friends of either gentleman te prove from the newspaper gossip that his Bian is eure to win. The business men's meeting in Xew York, and the egotistical, bru tal letter of Wavne MacYeagh of the seats will be assigned pro rata to the delegates fiom the several against Mr. Arthur, have unques- states. tionablv 4ided to that centlemait's strength, but the friends of Mr. Blaine none the less confidently fig ure out his nomination as sure, on the second ballot. Estimates of the strength of these two leading favor ites in New York, Ohio, and the Southern States are as plentiful as are apple blossoms, and are quite as evanescent, as every day subjects them to revisiens and change. But, while all this figuring and "Big Ia jun me'' talk is going on through the papers, the friends of the other candidates are smiling complacently Co.viKKssMAS Cassipy, of Nevada, is the last gentleman who comes for ward to testify to Mr. Tilden's large physical ability to dischaage the du ties of President. During a call at Mr. Tilden's house, that gentleman threw back a pair of heavy folding doors and gave other evidences of robust health, which satisfy Mr. Cassidy that he will gladly accept the nemination for President, if ten dered to him. The importance ar.i significance Mr. Stewart believes that Mr. Ed munds will be the strong second choice candidate of the convention. He does not think either Arthur or Blaine will win ; that they will be just strong enough to defeat each other. Mr. James D. Warren, of New York has practically spent the week at the White house." Mr. Wanen likes tw talk about Arthur's prospects, and is anxious to tell you everything ex cept what you want to know.

The most attractive word in the business vocabula ry is CHEAP, because the price tells, and everybody tells the price. The merchant whose superior advan tages in trade enables him to offer a better article, or as good an article for less money than his neighbor, has the inside track in the race for business , and as long as the people believe his is "the cheapest store in town," just so long will he lead every other trades man in his line. Famous for Low Prices, means suc cess; notorious-for High Prices, means failure. Ask ;i man more than he thinks a thing is worth and he re volts, and with many it is an insult. But olfer a man a Bargain, and straightway the purse-strings relax, and you will have a customer on the spot, lie h aves the store and tells the first acquaintance he meets of " the Cheapest Store in Town." The best advertis ing medium is a pleased customer. The small profit plan, under intelligent management, never fails. The masses must be attracted, if a large trade is ever to be realized. The merchant must impress the people with the fact that he can and will serve them best. The man who does the most for the community re ceives the largest share of favors from every member of it. CHEAP is the word, because the price tell, and everybody tells the price. Tj. M. WOOLF, The Oae-Pri't Clothkr, ILitUr, Funtihr.
