pleasant and agreeable remedies ever offered to
the public.

They are both equally good and contain the

two being a mereYrust ter of taste, the Tonle be-
Mg the most palatable.
The stomach, from a variety of causes, such
as Indigestion, Dys- p l i r ria, 'Nervous De.

as closely as it does with the litorunciy
then becomes affected, the result of which is
that the - atient suffers from several or more of
the following diseases:

iteqs of Blood to the Head, Acidity of the Sto
mach, Nausea, Heartburn, Damned for Food. Ful

and Eyes, Pain In the Side, Back. Cheat, Limbs,
etc., Sudden Flushes of Heat, Burning of the
Flesh, Constant Imaginings of Evil and Great

The sufferer from diseases should exer
cise the greatest cannon in the selection of a
remedy for his case, purchasing only
that which he is as- fit wired from his in

true merit, is skill- fullyvomponniled

THE ALL-IMPORTANT DUTY of EVERY
DEMOCRAT!
A few months more and the Presidential
campaign will open in all Its vigor, with can
didates in the Geld representing the distinct
ive issues of each political organization, and
committed plainly and unettnivocally to their
Interests.
On both aides active preparations are be
ing made for the struggle, and dt will un
doubtedly be one of the most fiercely con
tested in the history of the nation. Every
indication of the times points to the most
stubborn and unscrupulous resistance on the
part of the Radicals against the efforts of . the
people to wrest from them the lawless power
which they have seized to uphold their base
purposes.
The Democratic party begins the campaign
under the most auspicious circumstances,
with a conddence in success, an enthusiasm
for the cause, and a vigorous self reliance
that has not been experienced in many years.
The late election's show conclusively that _a.
vast majority of the nation are ready to es.
pause our standard if we only prove faithful
to our creed, and continue to stand firmly by
the interests of the country. ,
But to make victory certain something
more is necessary than mere dependence up
on the truth of our principles. In the flush
of self-confidence, we are apt to forget what
a vigilant enemy we have to overcome, and
what desperate measures he is apt to resort to
to attain his ends. Political battles, like those
of a more bloody nature, depend for their re
sults more on the skill;courage, determination
and energy of the contesting foes than upon the
sacredness of their cause, or the eon duns of
the partieipats. The Democracy of America
have always stood forth as devotedly attached
to the Union, the Constitution and the wel
fare of the jt country As they - do to-day, yet
for seven yeaVhey have been divested of
power, and It is only when the people are
aroused from their delusion by the imperilled
condition of the public interests, that they
have again returned, to us that confidence
which it would have been well if they had
never parted with.
- The all-important necemity of the day s on
the part of our political friends is—,tort!
‘ivoltE!! WORK !!!
We must be thoroughly organized and pro
pared for the campaign. . Every man must
consider that he owes a peroone.r. duty in 'the
matter, as indeed he does, for there is no one
s 4 humble, hut be Is in some way more or leas
concerned in the 'issues at stake. All the
districts must be canvassed, so that we may
know where it will be most advantageous to
employ our energies. The young men ttlust
be encouraged to fend a helpin'g hand. Those
who have been led estrny most be
,brought
back to the fold, and Democratic argument+
placed in their reach, that they may know
the distinctive questions which diVide par.
tits, and no longer be misled by the wiles and
falsehoods of the Opposition.
What we have said before we now reiter
ate, and intend reiterating until we _byte
waked the Democracy up to a full conscious
ness of its truth; that the most effective
weapon towards success is the wide diefriZtt
lion of sound and strctightforitard total nem
papers.
One good jourmil in a family will do more
towards moulding its political convictions
than allothet intim flees, and tiny copies cir
culated in any locality for six. mouths will
accomplish More efficient service than a doz
en costly mass meetings.
The Democratic party has never displayed
that zeal in supporting its press that it need
ed, and to that cause, as much as- anything
else, may be attributed its misfortunes during
the last ten years. In all sections of the
country—even in the midst of the strongest
'Democratic localities—the Radical press is
more liberally sustained than ours, and in
manY places the contrast is so great as al
most to amount to a disgrace.
The time has come for these things to be
changed, and for the Democratic party to
enter upon a new method to . warfare. Our
papers ought•to be spread broadcast ever the
land, andlake the place of those which are
now defiling the minds of tho young and
filling them with wrong ideas of Republican
liberty. Our public men should avail them
selves of every opportunity that ofi'ers to im
press the importance, of these views on the
attention of the masses. Our local leaders
alviuld make a point of devoting whatever
spare time they can towards strengthening
their can nty organs by pro:elating their friends ,
and neighbors' patronage.
The low price of TWO DOLLAILS ke•- -
year.at which the Observer la now offered,
if pad in adoince, ought to ensure' Ow doub
ling of our subscription list iuelde of the next
pis nuonthq.
But to place it within the reach of all, we
offer to take sir month efitmeriptwiut de LINE
DOLLAR in tutraiiee, with the privilege of
commencing at any period desired, and of
continuing the paper at the mule rate fir The
balance of the year' if desired.
Now is the time to begin the work, before
the spring operations set in, and while voters
hare thou to read, and reflect over. ; the facts
preaented to them. Let it not he delayed
under the impression that the matter can be
as well attended to by-and-by. More ad
vantageous work can be rendered during the
gest tso months than can he performed dur
inin,die entire balance of the campaign. A
ecis matrigths' subscription Commencing within
the nest. 4y.0 •months, will continue until
near the close of ;,he campaign, and have an
immense influent* ovor the Mild of the vo
ter who peruses the paper.
We earnestly urge this imp;Mhot matter
upon our friends as by all Odliei 11111.4.• *trust re
liable means of helping the cause.
Let every one of our present sultsmibera
see his Democratic neighltor at once, and If
he is not a patron already, induce him to sub
scribe for sis months, • if he cannot for a
year.
Let those who can afford it, send copies to
loseltatin2 voters, who may be influenced to
support our candidates at the next election.
Let clubs be established and prOcure ten,
twenty or fifty copies for free distribution
wherever there is likely to be a Cote gained,'
Let this be the grand preparatory work of
the campaign, and be, assured that whenever
other means are necessary there will.be found
an abundance of ready helpers for every part
required.
. We intend that, be the result of the con
test what it may, no one shall have the op
portunity to complaht that we have failed to
fulfill our complete duty iit — thry.canvass. -
The Observer fur the next year will be
more vigorous"and outspoken than in any
previous portion of its career; will contain
more reading matter ;-and it shall be our
constant aim to present such material as will
be productive of the most beneficial results.
We only ask for such co-operation as we
have a right to expect, and if the Democra
cy of the North-West are impelled by one
half our zeal and confidence, we . promise
such a verdict in this section as will gladden
the hearti of our friends throughout the

TRIP LIGUTI.T.
Trip lightly over trouble,
Trip lightly over wrong;
We only make grief double
By dwelling on it long.
Why clasp woe's hand so tightly ?
Wily cling to forms unsightly ?
Why not seek joy instead ?
Trip lightly over sorrow,
Though all the day be dark,
The sun - may shine to-morrow,
And gaily sing the lark ;
Fair hope has not departed,
Though roses may have fled,
Then never be down hearted,
But look tor Joy instead.
Trip lightly over sorrow,
Stand not to rail at doom,
We've pearls to string, of gladness,
On this aide of the tomb ;
Whilst stars are nightly shining,
And !leaven is over-head ;
Encourage not repining,
But look for joy instead. '
The ladepeudeut Senators.
The following is the concluding portion of
Senator Fessendeu's opinion on the impeach
ment case, read In secret session of the Sen
ate. It is an unanswerable response .to the
charges of treachery and bribery so freely
made against him and his colleagues by the
Radical press and politicians :
I am unwilling to close the consideration
of this remarkable proceeding before advert
ing to dome of the points which have been
presented in the armament The power of ,
impeachment is conferred by the Constitu
tion in terms so general us to occasion great
diversity of opinion with regard to the na
ture of offences which may be held ut consti
tote crime or misdemeanor within its intent
and meaning. Some contend, and with great
force of argument, both upon principle and
authority, that only such crimes and
.misde
meanors are intended to are subject to indict
ment and punishment as a violation of some
known laws. Others contend that anything
is a Crime or misdemeanor within the mean,
ing of the Constitution which the appointed
judges choose to consider so, and they argue
that the provision was left indefinite from
the necessity of the case, as offences of public
Officers injurious to the public interest and
for which the offender ought to be removed,
cannot be accurately defined beforehand.
That the remedy provided by impeachment
is of a political character and designed for the
protection of the public against unfaithful
and corrupt officials. Granting for the sake
of argument that this latter construction is
the true one, it must be conceded that the
power thus conferred might be liable to very
great abuse, especially In times of high party
excitement when the passions of the people
are Inflamed against a perverse and obnox
.ioUll public officer. If so, it is a power to be
exercised with extreme - caution, when you
once get beyond the line ofspeeific criminal of
fences. The tenure of public office,except that
of Judges, is so limited in this country and the
ability to change them by popular suffrage
- is so great that it would seem hardly worth
while to resort to so hard a remedy, except
in extreme ewes, and then only upon dear
and unquestionable grounds. In the case of
an elective Chief Magistrate of a great and
powerful people living, under a written Con
stitution, there is much more at stake he such
a proceeding than the fate of the Individual:
The office of President is uue of the great co
ordinate branches of the Government, having
its defined powers, privileges , and duties as
essential to the very framework of the Gov
ernment as any other, and to be touched
with as carefill a hand. Anything that con;
duces to weaken its hold upon the respect of
the people, to break down the barriers which
surround it, to snake'it the mere sport of tem
porary majorities, tends to the great injury
of our Government, and inflicts a wound up
on constitutional liberty.
It is evident then, as it seems to me, that the
offence for which a Chief Magistrate is re
moved from office, and the power entrusted
to him by the people transferred to other
hands stud especially where those hands that
receive it are to be the same which take it
from him, should be of such a character as to I
commend itself at once to the minds of all
right thinking men as beyond question an
adequate cause. It should be free from the
taint of party, leave no reasonable grounds I
of suspicion upon the motives of those who I
inflict the penalty, and address itself to the I
country and to the civilized world as a meas- !
tire justly called for by the gravity of the
crime and the necessity of its punishment
anything less than this. especially where the I
defence is not defended by any law,would in
my judgment, not be justified by a calm and
considerate public opinion as a caush for re- !
moval of a President of the United States,
and its inevitable tendency would beto shake '
. the faith of the friends of constitutional lib- I
erty in the permanency of our free iustitu
tious and the capacity of man for self-gov
ernment. Othet offences of the. President
not specified in the articles of impeachment I
have been proposed by the Managers as
showing the roves - why of his removal. It
might be sufficient to reply that all such
were long prior in date to thoses charged in i
the articles, have been fully investigated in
the House of Representatives, and were at
one time decided by a majority of the learned
Committee on the Judiciary, in that body, i
to present no sufficient ground for imueach- I
men; and were finally ditnuissed by the]
House, as not affording adequate cause for
such a proceeding, by a vote of nearly, if not
quite, two to one ; but it is enough to any
that they are not before the Senate, and that
body has no right to consider them against
hint. The President has had no opportuni•
ty to defend himself or even to enter his de
nial. To go outside of The charges preferred,
and to convict bins because in our belief be
committed offences for which be is not now
on trial, would be to disregard every princi
ple which regulates judicial pmccedings,nil
would be not only a gross erring in itself,
but a shame and humiliation to those by
wh o m it was perpetrated.
It has iseeir further intimated by tut Man
agers that public:tminion calls with a l old
voice for sostriciassia and removal of rye !
President. fine Manager has gone so. far as
to threaten with infamy 'ANYarY .Scnator why
voted for the tesalution passed be the Senate
touching rte removal a Mr. Stanton, and
who shall now vote for the President'?
quittaL Omitting to comment upon the pro
priety of this, it I. s.utlicient to say with re
gard to myself, list I out only did nut Tog'
for that resolution, but opposed its adoption.
Had I voted, however. It would afford no
justification for convicting the President.,ifj.
slid not, on examining it anti on reflection,
believe him guilty. A desire to be cou4r.-
tent would not excuse O viubuitet s.if guy oath
to do impartial justice. A vote sire e In
haste with little opportunity fur consideration
would he a lame APolouy for doing injustice
to another after a full examination and re
flection. To the suggestion that P o l,allar
opinion demands the conviction of the Myst
dent on these charges; I reply that he is not
now on trial before the people but before the
Senate. In the worts of Lord Elda upon
the trial of the Queen," take no notice of
what is passing out of• doors, tweause I sun
supposed constitutionally. not to he staptaiut
ed with it." And again. "it is the duty or
those on whom a judicial task is ill/Anted to
meet reproach and not court popularity."
The people have not heard' the evidenee as
we have heard it. The responsibility Is not
upon them but upon us. They have not
Aiken an oath to do Impartial justice acconl
lng ifhe Constitution and the laws. I have
taken that oath. I cannot render judgment
upon their conviction, nor VW they transfer
to themselves my punishment if I violate ray
oath. I should consider myself undeserving
. . .
the Vilnfitieribe thnt the juit and Intelligent
people imposed *lion me in this great re
sponsibility, and unworthy a place among
honorable men, if for Any !bar of public rep
!libation. and for the 'eke of securing popu
lar favor, I stwadd.diaregarti the convictions
of my judgment and conscience. The con
sequences which may falow, either from
conviction ornequltta3, are not for Inc with
my convictions to consiider, The future is
in the hands of Him who made and governs
the universe, and the fear that He will not
govern it Wisely and well would not excuse
me from a violation of Ills Jaw.
What Senator Ross Says, , r l
A. correspondent at the New York 'Word
has had a conversation sine!. the vote w th
Senator litise, in which the latter 'etradalaed.'
his kositiou as follows:
"My.object was and is," he saki, "first to .
do justice as my oath required, and by abid
ing by that moth .to save the Republica
party. I strove with my might, as did the
rest of the Republican Senators 'who snaked
with 'toe; to Postpone this .verdict. I desired
to have it pat otf if - possible until July. ' I
hoped that if it should be put off so lon,e,l.he
necessity for-bringing-in se-temper-might be
avoided. The President, by exhibiting
the interval a proper disposition to join milli
Congresl In forwarding reconstruction, by
Isendiur in the new Constitution of the Swath-
ern States with his approval, and approving
the admission by Congress of these States to
representation, might overcome the existing
animosity so far that very few men in the
Senate would think it just or politic to pro.
ceed against him. Thus the crisis would be
avoided, the division between the extreme
and conservative wings of the Republican
party would be rendered less inevitable or
less violent, and the approaching Presiden
tial canvass would be conducted with all
our united strength." After this, which is
not a literal transcript but the substance of
Mr. Ross', remarks, he said substantially :
"The pressure brought to bear upon Sena
tors who have been suspected of an intention
to vote for the acquittal of the President was
infamous in kind. The denunciation heaped
upon me since the vote, curiously proves
how the senses of mien can be obliterated in
the midst of an excitement like this. Here
was a vote upon a single article. I deemed
it my duty to vote "not guilty" upon that ar
ticle. That is accepted us a test of what my
vote would have been if the remaining arti
cles had been submitted for the verdict of the
Senate." I now said to Mr. Ross, "I am then
given to understand that although you voted
'not guilty' -yesterdarupon the eleventh arti
cle, no person has any authority to allege
that you intended to vote 'not guilty' upon
all the other articles'?" "That is precisely,"
responded the Senator, "what you are given
to understand." Before I left,Mr. Ross allud
ing again to the present excitement, exhibit
ed a few samples of the telegrams and letters
which he had received from his own State
and elsewhere since his vote was in doubt,
and since his vote on the eleventh article had
been made known. Several of these 'nesse
g s threatened assassination one of them, a
marvel of Billingsgate, telegraphed from
Kansas, had not been paid for by the writer.
It cost the Senator something over $4 to pe
ruse a missive in which his eyes, ears, and
everything 'lee about him were damned to
eternity. J. u. e.

It is a well known fact that lazy girls usually
make lazy women. Sometimes they change
about, but not often_ A young man may
well think twice before he commits his for
tune and future prospects into the hands of
such a wife It needs a gold mine or a two
hundred barrel oil well to support the ex
travagance of a lazy wife, and when the mine
or the well is exhausted, then life-long dis
content and misery. Though a man's income
rosy be ever so great, there's still need of in
dustry in the housemother. Greet posses
sions bring great cares witlethem. Let no
one fancy that in a house with four servants
the mistress would have nothing to do. As
a gent;ral thing, "Poor Richard's" maxim
holds met :""If you wish to be well waited
upon, wait on yourself; if you wish to be
tolerably well •waited upon, get one to help
you ; if you wish LOA to be waited on at all,
get two to help you,"
An indolent girl or woman is almost sure
to he tr-peevish, fretful one. She has nothing
to to but to brood over her cares and worries,
until they become mountains, Her cheek
grows sallow, stud her system isjull enfeebled
for the want of wholesome out=door air and
vigorous exercise.
Young ladies, if you wish to be'beautiful in
mind and complexion, rise early. Do not
let your mother get breakfast alone, and call
you down just in time to eat it. She has
dorm her share of such work, and it is fairly
your turn now. Step about briskly, toss up
the beds, throw open the shutters and win
dows, and let the fresh morning air come in
while you sweep out the chambers and
thoroughly dust every nook and corner. Do'
not leave the feeding of your poultry to
Bridet's careless hands, but do it yourself
judiciously, and the difference in the pro
ceeds will buy you many a pretty ribbon or
new dress which you covet. If you have
time fur it, an hour in the garden, weeding
bet it or training plants, will help still further
to bring the roses to your cheeks and the

A writer in the Revolution gives the fol.(
lowing sad picture of the life led by sewing:
girls and women in New York It is, unfor
tunately, too true:
. Of the thirty thousand women now out of
employment in . this wilderness of a city,
twenty thousand are said to be sewing girls.
There are, first, the shop girls, who sit in long
rows up and down the - length of dreary
workshops, or piled in promiscuously in less
pretentious establishments. Then there are
the dressmakers, thecloakmakers, tailoresses,
seamstresses and takers in of shop work. A
picture of one of the vest establishments,
where shop girls work, 'will do for All the
rest. Large, well lighted show rooms, atten
tive salesmen, watchful floor walkers, spry
little cash boys—all these will the eager buy
ers find in the lower rooms. Down stairs to
see the evening dresses, where brilliant gas
jets flame out to show out the effects ; up
stairs to see the bargains in cloaks and
shawls; wherever they go the same genial
light and soft radiance is thrown The work

rooms, however. On the third floor are the
work rooms. They are large and well light

rooms for ten hours per day, that it is almost
impossible to keep these rooms in a proper

muslin finishers. They prepare those deli

heart from the window or case where they
hang. Infant's robes are made, babes'
baskets are thoroughly prepared here. The
girls look tired, even at au hour before noon
They bend over shockingly, and nearly all
of them have sore eyes and sore hearts, poor
things. Six dollars a week is the average
mice made here. Some make nine. The
majority only make five. The floor, one im

to die by inches just because they fancy they

of them can make tea dollars a week, but these
are old hands at the business. On the fifth
floor is a smaller work-room than e;tlses; of
the others. It is devoted to making up plain
nnderware for ladies and children. There
are about twenty-five or thirty employees
here, Mile, wan and sickly; but, stradge
enough, more contented with their lot than
those of either of the floors below. I asked
one old lady, whose age would surely entitle
her to rest, how she liked to work here t
She replied, "I thank God that I can take'
