Frederick Douglass aud ex-Senator
Bruce, of Mississippi, are acknowledged
to be the noblest specimens of the intelli
gent colored men of this country, and it
is to the credit of President Garfield's Ad
ministration and of the Senate that both
of them have been officially recognized.
Fred Douglass has been made Recorder
of Deeds in the District of Columbia,and
Mr. Bruce was nominated for Register
of the United States Treasury, and con
flemed by the Senate without opposition.
And this unanimity 011 the part of the
Senate was owing to the indorsement of
Senator Lamar, who took occasion to
declare that Mr. Bruce's appointment
was an honor to Mississippi, and to re
quest that lie be confirmed by a uuaui- 1
mous vote. This speaks well for the
Mississippi Senator's heart and head
Mr. E. Lilley, of Leßoy, is being ad
vanced by many friends for the ofiice of
county treasurer, aud should he be nom
inated there can be no doubt but that he
will be elected and make a most faithful
officer. A fair distribution of ollices will
be insisted upon in the next county con
vention, and any attempt to centralize and
ignore this or that part of the county
will meet with such serious opposftiou as
to make it impossible. People in general
should and doubtless will look closer to
the primaries*— Canton Sentinet.
The spirit of the times is not favorable
to the advancement of Christian godli
ness. The public mind is unduly occu
pied by secular politics stimulated by
cheap newspapers. In many quarters,
where the Bible is not assailed by down
right infidelity, it is treated with a levity
bordering upon profaneuess; some of its
most Important doctrines being denied,or
explained away, superseded by human
opinion, under the plausible name of
philosophy,
Senator Conkling says he is worth not
more than $30,000, but "Gatli," who ap
pears to know all about it, asserts that
he is worth from $200,000 to $400,000.
The difference between $30,000 and $400,-
000 is considerable, and the ex-Senator
ought to compel "Gatli" to deliver the
missing assets.
It is stated that the report of the Chi
cago and Northwestern Railroad will
show an increase of two millions in the
year's earnings which will amount from
nineteen to twenty millions. The net
earnings will not show up so well in eon
sequence of the extraordinary expendi
ture the past Winter.
Secretary Blaine has informed the rep
resentatives of the American Hebrew
congregations, that instructions regard
ing the persecution of the Jews in Rus
sia, so far as American subjects were
coucerned, were being prepared for trans
mission to the United States Minister at |
St. Petersburg-
Arrangements have been made at the
Indian office to effect the removal of 70
North Carolina Cherokees to the Indian
Territory. It is thought at the Depart
ment that this is the first step toward
the removal of the whole tribe of North
Carolina Cherokees, about two thousand,
to the Territory.
Over 51,000 Sunday School children
were in line of procession 011 Wednesday
last in Brooklyn. It was a unique and
beautiful spectacle, and were reviewed
by a force of delighted relatives of even
greater numerical strength.
Out of 18,000 persons examined for col
or blindness, it has been proveci that
scarcely a woman is thus afflicted. They
can even discern colors in the dark, es
pecially if they belong to some recreant
husband or lover.

A. E. BURR'S
HOMOEOPATHIC
i < r s vll r /.
This remedy is something new, both as to name
and composition. This is one of the wonders of the
world. This Syrup, I claim, is better and more
effective,than any other ever offered to the oplc of
America or any other country, and xvhat 1 say of
this I can prove, This Syrup, like the Fills, is
harmless and safe. It contains no opium or other
narcotic poison, like the most Syrup, and is not dis
agreeable to take. Any child will take it. And it *
will cure any and ail inflammations arising from
Cold. It is superior to all others in every respect
and especially for the following reasons:
Ist- It will cure Croup every time.
2d. It will cure Inflammation of the Lungs.
3d. It will cure Quinsy.
4th It will cure Whooping Cough.
sth It will cure Bronchitis.
6th It will cure Hoarseness.
7th It will cure Sore Throat.
Bth It will cure any Cold.
9th It will cure Congestion of the Lungs.
10th It will cur" any Cough.
11th It will cure Scarlet Fever.
12th. It is the best remedv that any one can take
for Consumption, and if taken in the first stage I
will guarantee a cure.
13th. It is perfectly safe for all ages as there is
nothing in its composition that can harm a child.
