feet Renovator and Invigorator of the System,
carrying
off all poisonous matter, and restoring the blood to a
healthy condition, enriching it, refreshing arid invigorating
both mind and body. They . are easy of administration,
prompt in their action, certain in their results, safe and
reliable in all forms of disease.
No Person can take these Bitters accord

bones are not destroyed by mineral poison or other means,
sort the vital organs wasted beyond the point of repair.
Dyspepsia or IndlFestion. Headache, Pain
in the Shoulders, Coughs, '1 ightness of the Chest, Dirti

Mouth, Bilious Attacks, Palpitation of the Heart, In

neys, and a hundred other painful symptoms, are the off
springs of Dyspepsia. trove tese complaints it has no
equal, and one bottle will pv a better guarantee of its
merits than n lengthy advertisement.
For Female Complaints, in young or old, mar
ried or single, at the dawn of womanhood, or the turn
of life, these Tonic Bitters display so decided an influence
that a marked improvement is soon perceptible.
For Inflammatory notti Chronic Rheu
matism and Gout, Dyspepsia or Indigestion, Bilious,
Remittent end Intermittent Fevers, Diseases of the Blood,
Liver, Kidneys and Bladder, these Bitters have been most
successful. Such Diseases are caused by Vitiated Blood,

a Tonle, tuissessiug also the peculiar merit of acting . as
a powerful agent in relieving Congestion or Inflammation

buncles, Ring-worms, Scald-Head, Sore Eyes, Erysipelas,
Itch, Scuds, Discoloration, of the Skin, Humors and
Diseases of the Skin, of whatever.name or nature, are
literally dug up and carried out of the system in a short
time by the use of these Bitters. One bottle in such
cases will convince the most incredulous of their curative
effects.
Cleanse the Vitiated Blood whenever ion
find its impurities bursting through the skin in Pimples,
Eruptions, or Sores: cleanse it when .you find it ob
structed and sluggish, in the veins; cleanse it When it is
foul ; your feelings will tell you when. Keep the blood
pure, and the health of the system will follow.

the market abounds. By their occasional use,
the blood Is purified, the corruptions of the By&

whole machinery of life restored to its healthy

as to effectually purge out the great cor

and syphilitic contamination. Impurities,
or diseases that have lurked in the system
for years, soon yield to this powerful anti
dote, and disappear. Hence its wonderful

plaints, to which it would not seem especi
ally adapted, such as Dropsy, D.pep
sin, Fits, Neuralgia, Heart DWease,
Female Weakness, Debi li ty, and
Leucorrhoea, when they are manifesta
tions of the scrofulous poisons.
It is an excellent restorer of health and
strength in the Spring. By renewing the
appetite and vigor of the digestive organs,
it dissipates the depression and listless lan
guor of the season. Even where no disorder
appears, people feel better, and live longer,
for cleansing the blood. The system moves

THE UNION AND THE IRELAND
An Iniquitous Lend Tenure the Grand
Evil oflhe Irish People.
THE PRESENT DUTY OF IRISH-
From the N . Y. Harald of Saturday
Mr. James Anthony Fronde last evening de
livered the fifth and last of his course of lee
tures on Irish history, taking as his spaial
subject " The Union and the Ireland of-To
day." Mr. Fronde began by alluding to
slight inaccuracy he had made in h l s last lec
ture In quoting from Mr. Grattan s speech.
This was, however ' simply an error of ar.
rancement, not of fact. Ile went on to say
that forms of government should not be so
much kept in view as the spiritual and material
condition of the people. Aristocracies were
only bad because they were inure liable to be
distorted by seltdoterest.

political agitation before you had a clear idea
of what you wished to destroy or to build up,
and your efforts were worse than useless. The
Irish had fallen Into the mistake almost in

been thrown back again by foolish political
agitation. Just before the insurrection of :08

NOT UNHAPPY;
their only fear was lest some neighbor might
bid a higher rent and the landlord should drive
them away to starve in the nearest ditch. The
landlords were of several kinds, the main
classes being the great magnates who lived in
London, and the squires and squireens, who
gambled and drank and fought duels and
ruined their tenants. It was remarkable,
however, that this last was the most popular,
while the improving landlord was hated in-
tensely,. because, finding his land littered with
paupers, ho removed them to make way for
thrifty and industrious Scotchmen or English.
men. After all, these paupers, or vermin, as
they were called, were human beings. Was
it wonderful that they should retaliate by the
murder of the Improving landlord or of the
improving landlord's agent or bailiff? Such
was Ireland after six hundred years of Eng
lish rule. The law had invariably been the
enemy of Irishmen, and they were therefore
lawless. A. more powerful police was the
neht thing called for. But it was of no good
to reorganize the police unless the iniquitous
laws that bad led to crime were abolished.
Then, again, the religious question came for-
ward. The Established Church had been set
up to secure the conversion of Ireland, yet
four-fifths of the
PEOPLE WERE CATHOLICS,
and would remain so, while of the Protestants
less than halt acknowledged this same State
establishment. He (Fronde) did not think,
however, that the religious grievance of Ire
land had been the greatest of England's
wrongs. He, for one, recognized the im
mense influence for good of the Catholic
clergy. There was no vulgar crime in Ire.
land, and Irishmen showed a delicacy and
modesty of character, which was undoubtedly
due to the influence of their religious teachers.
Bat the Romish Church was a very different
matter. So long as the popes retained a hope
of recovering their old power no Catholic was
permitted to bo a loyal aubject to aNrotestant
'
prince and for two centuries a bitter war was
waged against the reformed religion. Could
England, therefore, allow the priests to de.
'Amy their power in Ireland any more than
Prince Bismarck could today allow the
Jesuits to undo the German Confederacy ?
The Irishman for centuries looked upon his
allegiance to the Pope as superior to his Eng•
Usti sovereign. Far more blame was due to"
England for her cruelty and opprcssion to the
Irish Noncontormists than fol . h r treatment
of the Irish Catholics. After the peace of
Utrecht politica assumed.
A DIFFEHENT COMI'LLXION
It ceased to be the avowed duty of the Cath
olic to never recognize the autliority of a Pro
tan t prince. But for the United Irishmen
and the renellion of OB Catholic emancipation
would have been at once passed as ajust and
necessary law, whereas it was reserved for
O'Uonnel to achieve it by a long and tedious
struggle. But much remained to be done
after emancipation was granted, The peas
ant was worse off than over. His landlord
was generally a Protestant and said to him,
"You must vote as I do, or I will turn you
off my land," while the priest said, "You must
vote as I wish you, or I shall excommunicate
you." O'Connell, if he had wished, instead
of clamoring for repeal, which he knew he
Would never get, might have secured malty
years sooner
A JUST LAND LAW,
such as Mr. Gladstone had recently passed.
The English reformers, such nr Sir Robert
Peel, bad, however, succeeded in giving the
Irish a satisfactory measure of education; but
this had been greatly nullified by the influence
of the priests, who desired that the sheep
should be separated from the goats on this as
well as an the other side of the day of Judge
ment The great evil of Ireland alter eman
cipation was the land tenure. The landlords
for most part were Impoverished and out at
elbows, while the peasantry multiplied ex
ceedingly, owing to the encouragement of
both the priests and the lhndlords, the former

of whom were beggars, and all living on
TEES STERNAL POTATO
We meet of us remembered how sadly all
this ended. The note of warning had long
been sounded. Corbet had shown the folly
of allowing an immense population to spring
up, trusting for support' ico ono single precar
ious crop. The potato failed and there came
the famine. The Irish bore the calamity
with a patience and heroism that could not be
too highly admired. A quarter of a million of
them perished of shear hunger. As last as it
could be done supplies were sent by England
and the government voted ten millions of
money, eight of which he believed had been
stolen. America also forwarded magnificent
contributions, and from all parts of the world
there came help and succor. At length the
famine was stayed, and as usual the blame was
thrown on
THE WRONG BERGILDERB
Political economists upraided the Conne
mara peasant because he was not sufficiently
well up In "Mathews on. Population." The
first result of the famine was the revival of
political delirium. O'Connell preached re=
peal as the spring of Ireland's misery just as
he had previously preached the same thing
about emancipation. Chen suddenly came
the report that 400,000 Irishmen were prepared
for revolt. He (Fronde) had himself gone to
Ireland believing that the day of judgement
had Indeed come at last. Hui how miserably
it all ended I A. scuffle in a cabbage garden
and the appearance of the pollee—that was all.
Never before had an insurrection met so ter
rible a fate; for it was now in Ireland for the
first time ridiculous. The next accl of the
famine was the passage of an act through the
Irish Parliament that the Irish bind should
support the Irish poor. This completed
MEI=
of the encumbered Irish lauded gentry, and
they had now faded forever away. 9,-
000,000 of the Irish people had also, in conse
quence of the famine, dwindled down to 0,.
900,000,, which allowing for the natural rate
of increase, showed an emigration of between
live and six millions. The famine also stim
ulated Many of the landlords to raise the con
, ditlon of their tenants, and on many Irish es
tates now the farmers and peasantry were
much better off than his English fellow sub
jects. But the good landlords were few, and
to get rid of the impoverished remain.
der Parliament passed the Encumbered
Estates act, which 'caused it creditor
to demand the sale of his debtor's fund. The
new perehasers of the land very generally re•
duced the number of their tenants. They were
mostly prosperous business Irishmen, who
had little pity for their poorer countrymen
Some of the purehaueramlso, were land lumen

on a promissory note, and, having cleared the
estate of lie superfluous teuantry,would again
throw it Into the market and sell it nt a highly
advanced price. The poor peasantry were
told to go—to go to the devil if they could find
nowhere else to go to ; and so they went to
America. (Laughter.) He (Fronde) though!
that if the English government had managed
properly they might have made this necessity
of emigration a conciliatory measure. They
might have said to the evicted tenant, "It is
true we can't keep you here at home, but in
our colonies we will give you each 200 acres
of land, with provisions out of the public
funds for their maintenance during the first
yerr of occupation." This might have cost
about twice as much as the Abssynian war had
involved or half what had been thrown into
the mud at Balnalava, but it would have been
a good money investment. It was needless,
however, to say that nothing of the kind was
done, The emigrants left for America with
bitterness in their licensor hile the Irish peas
antry at home formed themselves into disloyal
bands and redressed their wrongs by the
WILD JUSTICE OF MURDER
The landlords would have had their hands
tied sooner than had been the case but for the
cropping out again of the old folly of political
agitation. He (Fronde) did not blame the
Irish for their desire for independence. lie
admitted the "sacred right of revolution," but
It was sacred only when the insurgents hail
power to achieve it, It was only when jus
tice was denied and the lust hope of redress
had died away that it was lawful to call up
the spirits of fire and blood. Never had there
baen a more unjustifiable revolt, judged from
this point of view, than the Fenian rebellion.
The rebellion of 1848 had ended hi a comedy,
and the Fenian rebellion had ended very lit
tle better, But, In spite of the rehellion,Eng
land had resolved that if the Irish rebelled
again they should at least have no valid griev
ances to complain of Mr: Gladstone took the
matter in hand, and began by denouncing the
...upas tree of Protestant ascendancy." This
was a taunt altogether unprovoked and 'un
necessary ; but Mr. Gladstone disestablished
the Irish Church, which would have been well
enough had it been abolished as a state estab•
lishment and not as a religion. The priests
then clamored about the universal education
that prevailed in Ireland ; but Ireland's great
evil remained the same as ever—the land ten
ure—and this had been redressed by Mr. Glad
stone's healing Laud act of three years ago.
The landlord could no longer evict the hum
blest peasant without having to pay for his
cruelty. He now had to pay his tenant for
every stroke of work he had put into it and
something besides. The Irish now demanded
home rule, and it might be asked, why not
grant this as well? He answered, because no
home-rule government would have ever
passed the Land act. An Irish Parliament
would necessarily be composed chiefly of
landed gentlemen, who in Ireland would of
their own free will never do justice to the Irish
peasantry until afternoon on Doomsday. An
other objection to home rule was that Ireland
was not one nation, but two. Protestant as
cendancy had been abolished, but he did not
wish now to see Catholic ascendancy establish
ed. Ho (Mr. Fronde) believed that the proud
high-spirited Protestants of the North would
never consent to be governed by the mare
numbers of the Catholic Irish majority. W ith
in a year England would be compelled to in
terfere to.
PREVENT CIVIL WAR
He hoped, therefore, that no such rash and
dangerous measures would he attempted.
Something, however, remained to be done.
The landlords had changed their Ideas, and
now knew that they must make their choice
between poWer and self-indulgence. If they
wished political Influence, they mustdo some
thing else than merely spend their money.
Eviction, too, was still possible, and in these
days of enormous millionaires, it might some
times pay to sweep a barony clear of its peo•
pie, and turn I. into a dear forest. This should
be remedied and the English Parliament was
.now no longer the representative of a mere
class, and English landed gentlemen would
soon have to live for nobler objects than self
Indulgence, or they would he swept away. In
the good work of reform the Irish people

only to nobler instincts than nationality, they
joined hands with them in the cause of pro•
gress. lle (Nir. Froude) concluded by hop
log that the sympathy of the American Ite
public would he given to the right side.
A MANNED COMPLIMENT
Priifetsar Hitchcock, of Union Seminary,
thou made a brief speech of thanks to Mr.
Froude for his lectures, in which he said that
while Americans were glad to know that
justice was being at last done to Ireland, the
judgment of all Americans in regard to Irish
independence was that it was a geographical
impossibility, and that American advice to
Englishmen would be "..-tund to the last by
yuur flag."
Mr. Fronde responded in a very warm ac.
knowledgement of the attention and kindness
which had been shown to him, saying further
to Irishmen that he would yield to no Fenian
in his determination.
FORRESTEIVB WIFE
The New York Telegram says : The re
cent arrest of Forrester, the suspected mot'
derer of Benjamin Nathan, very naturally
renders anything relative to him, and those
connected with him, of interest. We there
fore publish the following - sketch-of Lizzie
Forrester, nee Thomas, the wife of the al
leged assassin, and his co-partner in crime :
Lizzie is the eldest of two daughters of old
Bill Thomas, of Baltimore, one of the most
expertburglarsaud cracsmen in the United
States. She was born September 25, 1850.
Her father, who by his robberies was always
in funds, sent his two daughters to school at
the convent of Notre Dame des Victolres,
where they received a first-class education.
At an early age the wife of Thomas died,and
he took up his abode in the purlieus of Fell's
Point, leaving his daughters at the convent.
He conceived the plan, however, of turning
his daughters' accomplistimentsto account,
and gave them instructions in the mysteries
of his profession. Lizzie proved an apt and
willing scholar,and materially aided her (Mil.
er in entrapping the unwary. As a woman,
she is what the world would denominate beau
tiful. She is about five feet two Inches high,
of petite figure, and very light complexion or
blonde, and with a profusion of light flaxen
hair. Her face has rather a sad expression.
Her feet, hands and mouth are small. She
usually wears her hair hanging down her back
but at times has it done up - in a loose water
fall or net. Her style of dress is simple and
modest. She was married to the murderer
Forrester In Baltimore In July, 1809, and she
has had one child.
Senator Sumner
The Springfield Republican gives the follow.
tog extracts from a " private letter from a dis
tinguished American of independent political
position, temporarily resident in Paris." The
letter is dated Oct. 7:
Mr. Sumner is here, and I see much of him
daily. Re le sadly broken In health. The first
time I saw him lie looked badly ; he looks bet
ter now ; but he is not in a good way. lie is
a lion here. He dines ivith Itemusat, Seere•
tary of Foreign Affairs, with M. 'Chien, with
the Duke d'Aumale, with the Cabinet, with
men of art, lettere and statesmanship. I dined
with him him at one house with a party of
thirty, representing more official prestige and
aggregate wealth than one can often see at a
table, and he was the acknowledged head. I
dined with him, with Laboulaye and other
French gentlemen of mark. M. Laboulaye
said he came "to meet the illustrious Senator."
Our American friends here do for him all his
time will permit. E. C. Cowdin, of New York,
resident here much of the time, gave him a dis
tinguished dinner last week. He ought not to
go back to the Senate this winter. Ills pas
sage has been tendered and accepted on a Con
ardor for the middle of November, but we shall
urge upon' him the neces..ity of staying long

GEQIWE FRANCIS AT LAIWE IN
LON DON
A. London correspondent of the Cincinnati
Commercial writes as follows:
Some of these.days the United States may
look out for a list .if arbitrable claims front
England for allowing George Francis Train
to escape from the port of New York and
cruise shout this country. Train comes and
goes, but usually he comes. ❑e is herd now.
The newspapers lake no notice of hint what
ever, and consequently he does not slay so
long in London as he did in former times.
The hulls are not thrown open and crowded
when he arrives., It was only by an accident
that I heard of his making an appearance at
an ancient:workingmen's debating club,w Melt
meets nightly at the Green Dragon, in Fleet
street. The room was full of the bale sent
up from two score pipes when the cloud.cum•
polling Train made his appearance. The
chairman said, in introducing Train. that, as
he w san unusual visitor, he would hot be
limited in his speech to the ten minutes assign
ed to each speaker. Whereupon Train, be
ginning about 9, spoke until midnight, the
hour at which the police ordered all public
houses to be closed. In obedience to this edict
of old world tyranny Train had to sit down ;
but during his three hours he informed his
awe-struck hearers of a good many things they
didn't know before. said he had presided
over the Commune of. Paris, arid had person
all set fire to the Tuileries. lle admitted it
to be doubtful whether he would be elected
President In the corning election, as it was
probable that Grai.t or Greeley (both of whom
ho abused unmercifully) would be ahead of
him at the polls ; "but In 18761 shall certainly
be elected President,and theu I shall make the
English Prime Minister pay doWn the $3,000,•
000 he owes Me i'or my train ways, nr so help
ate God I I will behead him." Ile then said
that the secret at his power lay 10a large ex
tent in the tact that he neither smoked nor
ffrank—each auditor here puffed his pipe and
sipped his moral life. "You may call me an
egotist," he exclaimed " I am—l glory in he.
tug an egotist ; I stand for Manhood. Vox
popu hi vox Traini. The fact is, gi ntlemen, I
am the biggest thing that leis been got up on
this planet for two thousand years." Train
was not a bit exhausted by this, and if the
landlord had not received n hint front the po
llee, he might have been haranguing at the
Green Dragon at this moment. When he left
the room the whole company was at his tail,
gazing as It he were a new species of kangaroo.
One who had been listening, asked me if I
knew whether he was a man of much influence
in America. •
STAKE OF THE CINCINNATI
CBE ELIE Y I 'l' E S.
DE =ll3
The Cincinnati Greeleyites underrated the
weight n f this peculiarity enormously, and are
now Buffering for it ; but when they began of
late to ridicule Grant Mr not making speeches
they showed that they had not the found out
what was the matter with them. The truth
is that a man who has won battles may remain
silent till the end °lbis life, and smoke twenty
cigars a day, without losing the popular con
fidence. General Grant has successfully trans
acted some of the most important business
which falls to the lot of man—business which
every one fuels in his heart tasks human pow
ers to their utmost capacity. To shake the
hold which this gives him on the popular
mind, you have not only to prove his short
comings, but to put up against him another
man who also has displayed talent for great
affairs, or at all events, talent of the Kind
which produces tangible and striking re
sults. Instead of this, the Greeleyites put up a
man who has never displayed any capacity for
affairs, and never figured In any great transac
tion, and who had won his Influence and rep
utation by mere preaching without responsi
bility, and without exposure to any tests or
checks beyond those created by newspaper
"sales" and "subscriptions." No doubt it is
a great thing to have established the New
York Tribune •, but you cannot get people to
believe that It is au exploit indicative offitness
for any other business in life, or put the man
who performs it on a level with a great com
mander or a great financier. Of course, too,
whatever absurdity in Mr. Greeley's nomina
tion was created by his personal character and
antecedents was aggray. ted by the attempt to
get up a "singing campaign" in Ws some. Nu
man can be sung into the Presidency who has
not some trace of the hero in his composition.
He must in some way strike the iinagination.
The Greeley candidate was nothing if not
ludicrous. Ills best friends smiled when they
spoke of him. His odd clothes, odd gait, odd
expression and bad manners might have sthn
ulated enthusiasm if they had belonged to one
who had turned the tide of battle on famous
fields, or directed the fortunes of a great cam
paign' or shaped and embodied In legislation
great lines of policy. lint in his case there
was nothing behind them in the way of
achievement but a mound of slipshod anti
abusive "editorials" and a few hasty, crude
books on subjects he had only" half mastered.
The campaign will now pass into history as
the most comical and yet the most instructive
h e )Isode in American politics.
U 1.: VARIETIES OF YANKEES
Oliver Wendell Holmes, in the October At
'antic, says : " We talk about a Yankee, a
New Englander, as if all of 'rut were just the
same kind of animal. 'There is knowledge
and knowledge,' said John Bunyan. There
are Yankees and Yankees. Bo you know
two native trees called pitch and white pine
respectively 1 Ot course you know 'em.
Weil. there are pitch-pine Yankees and white
pine Yankees. We don't talk about the in
herited differences of Men quite as freely, per
as they do in the Old World, but repub
licanism dot sn't alter the laws of physiology.
We have a native aristocracy, a superior race,
just us plainly marked by nature as of a higher
and finer grade the than common run of peo
ple us the white-pine is marked in its form, its
stature, its bark, its deligate foliage, as belong•
ing to the nobility of the forest, and the pitch
pine, stubbed, rough, coarse haired, as of the
plebeian order. Only the strange thing is to
see what a capricious way our oath' al nobility
is distributed. The last borne nobleman I
saw only this morning ; he was pulling a rope
that was fastened to a Maine schooner loaded
with lumber. I should say he was about
twenty years old, as tine a figure of a young
man as you would ask to see, and with a
regular Greek outline of countenance, wav
ing hair that fell as II a sculptor had missed
it to copy. and a complexion as rich as a red
sunset. I have a notion that the State of
), sine breeds the natural nobility in a larger
proportion than some other States, but they
spring up in all sorts of out-of-the way places.
The young fellow I saw this morning had on
an old flannel shirt and a pair of pantaloons
that meant hard work, and a cheap cloth cap
pushed back on his head so as to lot Um large
waves of hair straggle out over his forehead ;
he was tugging at his rope with the other
sailors, but upon my word I don't think I
have seen a young English nobleman of all
those whom I have looked upon that answer to
the notion of 'blood' so well as this young
fellow did. I suppose if I made such a level
ing confession as this in public people would
think I was looking toward being the Labor
Reform candidate for President. But I should
go and sooil my prospects by saying that I
don't think the white-pine Yankee is the
more generally prevailing growth, but rather
he pitch-pine Yankee."

Dr. Marsh gives the toliowing stateinen
"About an hour and a hall before my sister's
death, we ware struck by luminous appear.
ances proceeding from her head in a diagonal
direction. She was at the time in a half re
cumbent position, and perfectly tranquil The
light was pale as the moon, but quite evident
to mamma, myself, and sisters, who were
watching over her at the time. One of us at
first thought it was lightning, till shortly af.

Is re corded from personal observation by Dr.
Donovan In the Dublin Medical Press, in 1840
as follows :—I was sent for to see Harrington
in Decembr, 1828. The report became gen
eral that mysterious lights were seen every
night in his cabin. The subject attracted a
great deal of attention. I determined to sub
mit the matter to the ordeal of my own senses;
and for this purpose I visited the cabin for
fourteen nights. On three nights only did I
witness anything unusual. Once I perceived
a luminous fog, resembling the aurora borealis
and twice I saw scintillations, like the
apatk

form you that Horace Greeley will be the next
President of the United States—according to
the Tribune.
If you have risked any bets on Grant, pay
the forfeit right away, for ho is going to be
defeated—according to the Tribune.
If Grant read the. Tribune, he would re•
sign.
The man must ho blind indeed who reads
that paper and fails to see that Grant's chances
are not one whit better than those of G. F.
Train or Victoria Woodhull.
I have been a reader of the Tribune ever
since It has been " not.an.organ"—whatever
that may be—and It has never been more
cheerful than now. From It you may learn
that Ohio Is sure for Greeley ; Maine is cer
tain for Greeley ; Vermont is a little doubtful,
but the chances favor
.Greeley. Pennsylva•

will wheel around for Greeley on November

The Liberals have wrested Indiana from the
grasp of the ad m in istration lets, which, accord

them for the loss of several other States, from
which they didn't expect much, anyhow,—
and got It. Everything turns out just as they
expecte '—except Grant. Re &won't turn out
worth a cent. The Liberals wanted him to
turn out certain office-holders and turn them
in—according to the Tribune. If the Liberals
had lost Indiana, then their hopes would have
been blasted, and Greeley might Just as well
have abandoned the field.

show for Grant. Were he to carry Pennsyl
vania, which is placed among the doubtful
States. Greeley would still be elected or
were he to carry Michigan
. and Maine, and
lose Pennsylvania, Greeley would be the next
Presidentr Or should Grant win Nevada, and
lose Nebraska and South Carolina, and Gres.
ley get Pennsylvania and MasSachuaetts and
his re-election wonfl be impossible. Or should
he even carry Delaware—which I have con
ceded to Greeley, according to the Tribune—
and lose six of the doubtful States, he would
certainly be defeated.
In the language of the Tribune : "Who
can doubt on which side the chances lie ?"
And who can doubt on which side Mr. (Wee
ley's editors lie. It looks to me now, as if the
editors lie a good deal more than the chances.
According to the Tribune, the Liberals are
now on the home•stretch. They are also at
home on a "stretch."
Yours,

Istroot. thorn aro about one hun
dred sick horses. Mr. Witty has been dosing
the sick with aconite and belladonna, in this
manner: Four doses a day—eight drops of
aconite the first hour, eight drops of belladonna
the fourth hour; then aconite again ; then
belladonna.
In addition to these internal remedies, Mr.
Witty has found it advisable to raise a slight
blister upon the throat of several of his horses
—using a mixture of hartshorn, cantharides,
and turpentine, to accomplish this pilrpose.
Mr. Witty believes in horuceopathic treatment.
" Do you think that the dieease can be com
municated to a human being ?" the reporter
queried.
I don't think anything about It," said a
gentleman who was standing close by, "I
know that I have had a touch of the disease."
All eyes were turned upon the speaker in
astonishment.
"I mean what I any," he said. "At first
I felt my throat growing sore and then I com
menced running at the nose, just like one of
those sick horses. It's something unusual
for ins to be attacked in this way.'
The speaker is a gentleman of the highest
respectability.
One of the stablemen joined in. "That's
not atrauge,P said he, "there arc two men,
drivers on the DeKalb avenue line, that have
got the disease and have had to stop work. A
man can take the disease just the same as a
horse."
The reporter afterward met two woll•kuown
doctors, who stated that they were treating
patients for a disease similar to that now pre
valent among thediorses.
