But the heavy majority by which the conclusion of that body was reached shows that sentiment in the State was largely against postponement. The Fairfield delegation voted solxcuy against nominations. * The noted George "W. Williams, exmember of the Ohio Legislature, now a colored attornev of Boston, savs: "I am fighting Blaine and I think my race ought to fight him. His record on the Civil Eights bill and the Force bill, I think, are sufficient alone to warrant us in opposing him, while his general political recora is sncn tnat a party nominating him cannot expect to succeed. I believe the Kepubiican party is on its last legs. 1 don't believe it will elect another president. It has accomplished its purpose and will pass j _ " from the stage as other parties have j none." A meeting was held in Cincinnati Monday afternoon to organize a move~h - raent in favor of Thurman. It was composed largely of friends of Senator Pendleton. The action taken was the appointment of an advisory committee to eo to Chicago and uree Thurman's nomination. To tlie suggestion that there were not many identified with the movement who had influence in the wards, one of the leaders in the movement replied that it was not the purpose to enlist that sort of aid. The . . organizers of the movement had not contemplated the election of delegates to the convention pledged to Thurman. What they proposed was to influence, as far as possible, the delegates after they were elected. This announce mcnt is accepted by the party- -workers as indicating that Thurman's contingent from Cincinnati will be an eminently respectable bodv of men, whose high notions will prevent their accomplishing anything. The bolters against the ifcLean ticket last fail, -who led an independent movement which promised much and resulted in nothing, are amon^ those who propose to push Tliunfcan in tue manner indicated. WILLIAM ALEXANDER CHARLES HEXry Frederick, Princc of Orange and iicir to' the throne of the Netherlands, who has been ill for a long time, died Juue 21.

She will be j' . remembered as one of the most learned j' and best educated women who ever ;' occupied a throne, and as a great j; satron oi literature, science and art. I ( She had an especial claim upon the j ?iau(,uue ox iimencans ior ner iriendship of many yea?3 with the last John Lothrop Motley, the historian of the ' - Netherlands. As is well known, she 1 lived unhappily with her husband and j had been separated from him for sev- j - ' / f ^ . ^ r .

The death oi" the Prince of Orange leaves the twoyear-old Princess <-f Orauge (his half sister) heiress to the throne of the Netherlands. The dead prince, who ] was a life-long sufferer from spinal c disease, nevertheless held the rank of j s rear admiral and major-general in the j 1 "Pir>rt/3 /*n!rvnf?] nf O i i A/UIWI > iO'vj IV UO uvivuv* V* ? ? j Russian grenadier regiment.

J portions it has grown. It 1861 there, < were on the pension rolls of the Unit- j i - iA 7Aft tA nrhnm I Cll OtStUS iV;?W [IUI 3UIi5, II uuu> . were paid annually $957,772. The ad-! < ditions made to the roll during the j < civil war brought up the aggregate in I ] 18C5 to 85,9$6 pensioners, with an an- J j nual pay-roll of $8,023,445. Under the ! various liberal changes made. in the < pension laws the number grew annual- 1 ly, uutil in 187S it had reached 238,- 1 411 pensioners, to whom were paid : the sum of $20,256,284. Here the i ' a ri. . tide receuea. it wus supjjuecu tutu, |. every soldier of the civil war entitled . to a pension had been provided for 1 and the roll was naturally reduced by deaths year by year, till in 187S it had fallen to ^28,998, with an annual payroll of $24,107,981. In January,. 1879, the arrears act was passed and the list began to grow al once, having increased in January, 1883, to 303,058 n^nsioners. with a oav-roll of SS2,245,- | 192. There are still on file and undetermined 244,505 claims for pensions under existing laws. A comparison of the total number of enlisted men during the war with the total number of applications for pensions is both suggestive and startling. The total number of individual enlistments in the army and navy during TtTfiv wsjj ?.06ft.000 men and bovs. Of these it is estimated that there are 1,500,000 still living. Up to Jane 30, 1888, 712,466 applications forfpensions had been made. This amounts to more than one-third of the number of enlisted .men and nearly one-half of the number surviving. In other words, every other man now living who enlisted, whether for thirty days or four years, is drawing a pension or lias applied ior one. Since the pension law o? 1S62 was passed, under which the disabled soldiers of the late war were granted pensions. Congress has made fifty difierent changes in the pension lay/, all in the interest of more liberal pensions. It now proposes to make a new change which will add not less than $250,000,000 to the pension disbursements. THE li.lJU The heated coutest for the Democratic nomination for the Presidency is the general theme of discussion in the newspaper prints of the country, and excitement among all classes of people is "on tip-toe/' In the East four leading candidates are prominent, Bayard, Cleveland, Randall and Bucor'"cleserve1 the nomi- nation, and he hasn't a shadow "of a chance to secure it. Butler is rotten, alway* has been, is now, and always will be rotten on general principles, and none but fools wish for or predict his nomination. If an Eastern man, uiereiore, receives uie xioumiauuii, it. will be either Cleveland or Bayard. The 2vew York World of last week, in a leading editorial on the situation, has this to say of Mr. Bayard: Against Mr. Bayard, able and honored as he is, rises up an unfortunate and unavailable political record. His secession speecnes wonia cnange me issue from live Reform to the dead Rebellion. His extreme interpretation of the Constitution as forbidding the emancipation of the slaves, although a war measure, without payment to the onwers, and as fatal to any protective tariff duties whatsoever, could be used with powerful effect and exaggeration in a heated campaign. His strange association with Blaine in ap. tpe'cmative railroad enterprise?both being directors in the same Board?could be effectively used by Blaine's shouters to make it appear that Bayard after all is not absolutely antipodal to Blaine. It is generally thought that party wisdom will dictate the nomination of an Eastern man for the Presidency and a western democrat lor tne vicePresidency. ,r:- . C. *'"( Cleveland, beyond doubt, will be able, under the unit rule, to go into the Convention with the solid vote of ' New York State at his back, and it is ; equally certain that if nominated, he will carry the State in the general ; election. There is every argument, \ therefore, from the standpoint of i availability, in favor of his nomination : and there is at present every indica- ! uon :nat ne win oe cnosen tne standard- , bearer of the party. As we have said < before, it is very likely that a "Western 1 man will be placed in nomination for j the Vico-Presidency, and among the ] notable names now before the public J are Hoadley, McDonald, Thurrfiau and ( Payne. The names of Messrs. Thur- j man and Payne are not considered very ] seriously in this conncction, and Hoadley or McDonald will carry off the prize. Hoadley would probably be regarded as the stronger man intel- 1 lectualiy, and if the Democracy can be ] assured that he will again carry his ( State, he will doubtless be placcd in \ uuuuuauuu. it win oe argneo. against ^ him, however, that his is an Octobor ] State, and if lost in that month would < seriously damage Democratic pros? ) pects in November. ] McDonald probably has better prospects of carrying' his own State than Hoadley, and, everything considered, . 'heir respective chances for the nomination are about equal. Cleveland r and Carlisle, or Cieaveland and Mc- 3 Donald, or Cleveland and Hoadley s would win in November if a Demo jratic ticket can win.

JA TtiriA O AJ'QO ^miencu-juiuei jau, uuuul .unit uvimi This farm I had the opportunity of seeing planted by the natives only for their chop as they call it. The first day there were forty women, and the second, in order to finish the farm, eighty more were employed. It is quite a sight to see oue hundred and twenty women, nearly as nature left them, upon their hands and knees almost, planting rice in unfallowed ground. You may nave some iaea how rapidly farming is carried oil here when it took fort/ women the first day and one huad jdjand twenty the second to finish planting a nineacre piece of ground in rice. I said the women planted the rice. That is accounted for when I say that the men among the natives do not work farms. They cut the farms and the women plant and gather them. The TTT/vmoii fhn ?r?rfs_ Thft men ficrht war, which is about as often as plantation quarrels in the South, and discuss law and medicine. I attended one of their courts one day?oi course I did not understand what they said? and they argue a case as long as a lawyer would at the bar in New York. . Since I wrote you last, I have taken advantage of the dry season, and visited some of the neighboring tribes^the Bush and the Snow tribes. The natives have *he repute of being great traders, and whenever the alarm is given that a stranger is approaching, everytmng is inaue reituy LU icwivt;. their guest. But if when the stranger arrives, and the conventionalities are over, and there is nothing said about trade, a cloud soon arises in the inidst. One by one continues to drop off until the stranger and his interpreter and boat boys are almost left alone. This was almost my fate at some of the places I visited. In short, one of-the natives who had acquired enough English to make me understand him, said I was welcome to visit his town, but on my return I must not fail to bring trade. At another place nearer t.rt thfi sfta it was with much difficulty I succeeded in making them believe that I was not a trader. There is much said about the hospitality of the natives. Much of that is in books and not in actual life. It is true that the natives will share their food with a stranger and take care of Canot, twenty years a slaver on this coast. In one of his interior travels on'a hunt for slaves he met up with a great Fnllah chief. This chief, to show his hospitality and good feelings toward the stronger and trader, made him thft nresorif, nf a larw osfrir.h. hnf seeing Captain Canot have some guns, was mindful to hinl that he was in much need of some muskets, upon which the Captain gave him six. This is the way African hospitality works among the uncivilized. I think six five-dollar English muskets for one ostrich in the interior of Africa with no commodities for travelling is a pretty good return for hospitality shown. The real fact of the whole matter is this, there is no easier way for one to lose his influence among the natives man to visit tneir towns ana neglect to cam* presents at least to the king or chief. Because of this barrier I have not visited any more native towns, and as the rainy season is approaching, I fear I shall not be able before the middle dry. Although fully a month has passed since my return homc3 I have fond recollections of the cloudy day of my first visit in the interior, where I satiated my thirst with water from a cool spring, and 1 ~ i t i . _ " wuere my Hunger was orougni w an end by the timely arrival of a bowl of rice and palm-bntter, highly season 2d with pepper. Whether the palm-bntter was seasoned with apiece of monkey or not I did not ask, but the bowl being placed in the centre of ray small company, the rice decreased with a wouaerful rapidity. . Neither is my river visit to be forgotten. "As you leave the coast, and shoot ronnd the river curves, the fragrant wilderness teeming with flowers, vocal with birds, and gay with their radisnt plumage, you oiiwsre into the interior, ~ where the rising country slowly expands inio hills and mountains,where "the climate exacts nothing but shade from the sun, and jhelter from the storm." After all said and done, when the ; natives are not at war, it may not be : dangerous to spend a day or two in ' :he interior of Africa sitting upon a mat for a stool, using a leopard or some other wild animal's hide for a ( 3cd, with a chunk of wood for a pillow, and afterwards arise to meet the < jarly morn with the birds in their song 3C if e?T?fnrifr fA T^o?r?/y will OIU^i.1.1^ U\J UlkS> *V A1V *V 111 riot let even a sparrow fall without his notice I David \V.

I went immediately over, and I felt { that notliing could be done. She was! soughing and spitting incessantly, and at; limes would discharge from her" lungs a arge quantity of pus or matter?could not sleep or retain anything on her stomach.! and was, in fact, m the last stages of the [ S disease. This was about the time you he-: ii gan to advertise Brewer's Lung Restorer, j C and as my son expressed a desire to give it. j1 to his wife, two or three bottles were pro- i a: cured and with scarccly a vestige of hope j we commenced giving it to her in small j doses, gradually increasing the quantity 1 until the prescribed dose was reached. She i< began to improve after a few doses and o continued to do so daily, until she was tl finally restored to life and health, and is ti to-day perhaps in better health than ever before. She is subject to colds, but a few swallows of Brewer's Lung Restorer (which she is never without) relieve her ? immediately. I consider her restoration to = perfect health a miracle, for which she is indebted to Brewer's Lung Restorer.
