The Republican papers say that the
Ohio Democrats have plenty of money
and will use it to some purpose on
election day. This may be a clever j
way of discounting Republican defeat.
What troubles the New York Sun
now is trying to explain its opposition
to Governor Gleveland in the face of
its numerous vigorous endorsements
of him before he was nominated for
the Presidency.
The Louisville exposition promises
to prove a financial success, despite
the prophecies to the contrary which
have been indnlged in. The admissions
last week reached 100,000. and
there is prospect of an increased attendance
as the weather becomes more
seasonable iur sight-seeiug. The exhibition
is fully equal to that of last
year.
The Hon. Thomas F. Bayard, of
Delaware, has written a letter to the
*
Democratic National Committee announcing
his readiness to engage in
campaign work actively, and placing
himself at the service of the. committee.
He is announced to speak at a
ratification meeting in Brooklyn, New
York, on Wednesday evening.

A New York- artist says if he paints a

and if he touches it up with pencil and

nobody can recognize it.
Every now and then we hear of
sanguine parties in different cities in
the Soath who talk glibly of starting
new papers. It is easier to talk about
than to accomplish. Ordinarily It
takes more money and occasions more
vexations losses than the majority of
men care to experience. A "long felt
want" in Cincinnati ran ?.x months at
a loss of $250,000.
James E. Osgood & Co., of Boston,
hive issued a pamphlet entitled "Protection
and Free Trade To-Day,n at
home and abroad, in the field and
workship, by Robert P. Porter, a
famous expert on the subject. This
^pamphlet contains many interesting'
facts and figures, and the protection
side of the qaestion is ingeniously,
stated. The price of the pamphlet is
only ten cents. An

The news of the death of Bishop
Pierce, of the Methodist Episcopal
Church, South, will be received with
general and profound sorrow. No
man in his church, perhaps, had more
closely bound himself to his people.
No man did better service in the cause
to which be devoted his life, and no
man could show greater fruits of his
labors. Bishop Pierce's death is a
loss as well to the whole country as to
the church at large. .
The Greenville News criticises the
address of onr State Executive Committee
on the ground of its inordinate
length. The criticism is eminently
just. What people want these days,
m the shape of political manifestoes, is
something short, sharp and decisive.
A perusal of the address shows it to be
a paper highly creditable to the political
knowledge and rhetorical1^ skill of
the author, but we fear that most people,
these trying September days, will
scarcely rgad it throogh.
The Augusta Chronicle says it is
doubted that the disease from which
Alabama negroes are suffering is
hydrophobia tainted by the bite of a
mad dog. The virus of poisonous
snakes can be shallowed by a human
being with impunity; and the same is
supposed to be true of hydrophobic
venom. It is conjectured that the suffering
negroes are largely the victims
of -imaginary fear, which simulates
often the genuine phenomena of disease.

jSot satisfied with ascertaining that
Private Henry was shot and eaten by
Greely's men, an officer of the United
States Army has exhamcd his record
to try to. damn Mm more effectually.
According to this authority, Henry
was a forger and otherwise a plausible
rascal. The question is why such a
man was forced upon Greely: and it
may occur to most people that the
officer who dug up the poor devil's
character to disgrace him more effectually
is himself a moral ghoul and con
strucave cannibal.
Carl Schurz has written a letter to
Senator Hoar which about flays the
Massachusetts Pecksniff. Mr. Hoar
had attempted to defend Blaine's corruption
and, incidentally, to refute
Schorr's charges, specifications and
proofs. Schurz comes back at him
with a vengeance. Donn Piatt used
to say that Hoar was a respectable
man, who tried to give credit to places
of ahady reputation by standing on the
door .steps, but partaking of none' of
their infamy. lie is posing for Blaine
just as be poses for the Republican
party.
The Georgia Railroad Tjommission
has. made its annual report to the
Governor and advocates the change of
the law so as to allow an appeal from its
rulings on rates some legal-tribunal.
The Commission very fairly discusses
Ihe matter and by this concession
meets both the complaints of the railroads
and a growing public sentiment
on the subject. Change of this sort
will remove a deepening opposition to
the Commission. The Commission
properly urged, however, that such
appeals should be promptly decided.
Senator IIexey B. Axtuoxv, of
Ithode Island, whose sudden death
? ??f fVv ft
was auuouiicuu ju.?o ww?v tut
senior United Stales Senator, and if
he had lived to the end of the present
term lie would have been thirty years
in the Senate, equaling1 the time of Thos.
H. Benton. In all that time it is said
he never was absent -from his post
during the sessions of the Senate but
once, and that was- for a couple of
days during the recent session, when
he was called away on important business.
?Since his death Senator Edmunds,
of Vermont, ranks in the order
of seniority, having sevved^venteen
years. *
A "Washington* local gossiper furnishes
"a theory in explanation of the
biding away of Col. Robert Ingersoll
in New Mexico from the campaign.
He says that Ingersoll, for his family,
tried to get 'into diplomatic and other
society, to which Mrs. Blaine held a
key, when Mr. Blaine was Secretary
of State, and then, though Blaiue's aid
was asked in the matter, the road was
not opened. Under these circumstances,
the gossiper says, Ingersoll
does not feel that he should run his
shoes off iu working for Blaine, and
eepecially as the President, two or
three of his Cabinet, Senators Edmunds,
Sherman and others, who are
supposed to be well up in the party,
do not find it necessary to do so.
All over the country the announcement
of ex-Governor Pound, of Wisconsin,
that he would help elect Cleveland
and Hendricks is received as the
most important and significant of recent
Republican protests against the
Blaine-Logan combination. Ex-Governor
Pound publicly gives his reasons
for this action, and they are the kev~
-- -e a!?
notes ui mu nutwi ouiav
terror to the common enemy. He does
not desert the Republican party, -bnt
in working against Blaine and for
Cleveland he represents thousands of
his political faith, who "call a halt in
the rule that ha* given the country
bewildering political and business
licentiousness, and demand a sternly
honest and faithful administration of
i the government to restore a healthful
tone to our general political system."
Tiie yeics and C'wme^publishes a
review of the trade; and commerce of
Charleston for the commercial year,
showing a highly satisfactory condition
of business. The receipts of cot
ton for the year were 428,301 bales;
rice, G7,476 barrels; naval stores, 328,255
casks and barrels; phosphate rock,
crude, 190,714 tons; fertilizers, 143,790
tons. The product of local manufactures.
excluding fertilizers, was $6,757,400.
The total trade amounted to
S64,o0l-,190. There is a steady improvement
in the condition of the city.
A large number of new buildings are
going up and real estate is advancing
in value. There have been only two
commercial failures of consequence

year may prove tr.orc than ever a good
one for Charleston, and that the highest
hopes of her business men may all
be realized, ^he whole State feels an

Some Republic ns criticise Governor
Cleveland's letter o4 acceptance on the
ground of "its brevity. They should
remember that Lincoln, said to be the
best beloved man in all our laud, and
among the very greatest of our statesmen,
wrote quite a short paper in
accepting the Republican nomination
for the Presidency. Here it is:
Springfield, III., May 23,1860.

A LETTER FROjZ ARKANSAS.
Monticello, Ai:k., August 29.? |
Afier.a long silence I will again give
your readers a lew items from this
i part of the West.
Since the Democratic primary eleci
tion. which was held here on the 4th
instant, the political element has remained
very quiet, there being no
other ticket in the field until a few
days ago, when the Republicans held a
convention and made nominations for
the various county offices; but these
nominations are of but little consequence,
and scarcely any attention is
paid to .them, as this part of the State
always goes Democratic by a large
majority.
The seasons here have been very
unfavorable to the farming interest
this year. A cold, wet spring caused
planting to be greatly delayed, and for
the past two months crops have suffered
severely from droughts, consequently
they are far below the average.
But we are getting good seasons
now, and wherever the crops have
been properly cultivated there will be
nearly if not quite a sufficiency made
to supply the necessary demands of
the corning year. The oat crop throughout
this section was excellent this year,
but wheat as usual was very light?it
is not a paviug crop here, hence but
little is ever sown.
There is an abundance of fruit here
this \ear, and the market is kept
glutted so that choice peaches * frequently
sell as low as two bits per
bushel.
This is camp-meeting season, and
they are in progress now ail through
(>nni)tiT Thosr* mr>r?fincrs. whif.h
are generally held in the woods under
brush arbors, are largely attended and
are very interesting. People sometimes
go quite a distance to attend
them. They put up temporary tents
and remain until the. meeting closes,
enjoying themselves both socially and
spiritually. The "Cane Breakers"
held a meeting near here on last Sunday.
This society is composed of all
*the old settlers of the country, including
all those who have lived here for
twenty-five years. They meet, have
preaching, relate their experiences,
and perform a memorial service over
those of their number who have died
since their last annual meeting. It is
indeed interesting- to listen to these old
gray, haired sires as they relate the
changes that have taken"phce since
tbev first settled here, and as they
term it, "commenced to break the
cane" when the country was yet but a
wilderness.
I saw an old gentleman, sixty-four
years of age, this afternoon, who attracted
my attention by his pleasant
looks. He wore a smile continually.
I approached him and asked why he
seemed to be so happy. At this interrogation,
his countenance brightened
more than eyer: his eyes sparkled with
pleasure, and his smile changed into a
broad.grin as he hastily made the following
statement: "Last year I was
living In York, South Carolina. My
place was poor and washed into gullies.
I had to use fertilizers and work
hard to make a living. And they have
the stock law out there, and I was
hemmed in so I couldn't have a hog
without I kept it in a pen. So one
day my old ladv said-she was going to
write to her son in Arkansas and tell
him we would come out there by
Christmas; arid she wrote it, and!
couldn't back out, though my friends
told me that I would die in one year
out there, and tried to persuade me
"not to come. But I sold my old worn
out place for ten dollars per acre and
just came right-on here to Drew county;
and I haven't been sick a day since
I got: here, and I've bought me one
hundred and fifty acres of land for
three hundred dollars, and have got
the papers fixed up. There is a good
box house on it, a good garden paled
in and a splendid well of water in the
yard. There is twenty-five acres of
cleared land on it, and it is just rich
enough for anything; and there is such
a splendid range for hogs, and we can
have all the' milk and butter we want
and it don't cost a cent, and I am just
going to be young and lively as long
as I live."
So much for Arkansas. As this old
gentleman walked away I thought to
myself, what a pity Ponce de Leon did
not come here when he was in search
fhr? fhrmtain nf nArnPhial
youth, and like this old gentleman
made his home in this El Dorado, and
thus have saved himself from going to
the grave. More again.

From Jlacoir.
In August, 1881, it was discovered that
my son's wife was in the last stages of consumption.
She was coughing incessantly
and at times would discharge quantities of
pus from her lungs, could not sleep or retain
anything on her stomach, and we
thought it only a question of time when
life would be compelled to give way to the
fell destroyer. After all other remedies
had failed^ we got Brewer's Lung Restorer
and began it in very small doses, as slie
was verv weak. She soon be can to 1m
| prove; continued the remedy and was restored
to life and health, and is to-day betj
ter than she has ever been before. I regard
her restoration as nearly a miracle,
for which she is indebted" to Brewer's
Lung Restorer.

Cherry Pectoral.
No other complaints are so insidious in their
attack as those affecting the throat and Inngs:
none so trifled -with by the majority of sufferers.
The ordinary cough or cold, resulting
perhaps from a trifling or unconscious exposure,
is often but the beginning of a fatal
sickness. Ayee's Cherry Pectoral has .
well proven its efficacy in a forty years' fight
with throat and lung diseases, and should be
taken in all cases without delay.
A Terrible Cough Cured.
" In 18571 took a severe cold, which affected
my lungs. I had a terrible cough, and passed
ifrpr niiVht without sleeD. Tbe doctors
gave me up. I tried Ayer's Cheery Pectoral,
which relieved my lungs, induced
sleep, .and afforded me tile rest necessary
for tne recovery of my strength. By the
continued use of the Pectoral a permanent
cure was effected. I am now 62 years
old, hale and hearty, and am satisfied your
Cherry Pectoral" saved me.

Croup. ?-A Mother's Tribute.
"While in tbe country-last whiter my little

it seemed as if he would die from strangu- '

of Ayer's .Cherry Pectoral, a bottle of
which was always kept in the house. This
was tried in small and frequent doses, and
to our delight in less than half an hour the
little patieut^vas breathing easily. The doctor
said that" the Cherry Pectoral had
saved my darling's life. Can you wonder at, ;
our gratitude ? Sincerely yours,

ME. JOHN PEARSON'S STATEMENT. D(
In the spring of 1882 I was attacked with
a very bad cough, which continued to ?
grow worse until fall, when J got so weak 4
that I could not get about. I tried a great Jr.
many kinds of medicine but continued to wgrow
worse. I was notified that I had A
consumption and would probably die. Dr.
Ilolloway finally told me to try Brewer's P
Lung Restorer. They sent to ward's Store
and got a bottle and I commenced taking
it right awav. After taking two or three 13
doses, I began to improve, and by the time __
I had used up one bottle I was able to get -jon
mv feet again. I am now in excellent f
health. I am confident that the Lung Restorer
saved my life and my neighbors are
of the same opinion. It is the "best Lung p,
Kemcdy ever made in my opinion. Dr.
H. promised me that he would write to the ^
manufacturers and tell them of the wonderful
cure it made in my case.
Statement of Mr. BeDj. F. Hearnond. S.
Early in November, 1881, while sewing
on the machine, my wife was taken with a ~
severe pain in her side, which was soon f
followed by hemorrhages from her lungs
and a severe cough. Fever commenced, W
she could neither eat nor sleep, and in a few
weeks she was reduced to a living skeleton. F
T* Attending physician told me that he
tin, ught one of cer lungs was entirely gone.
She could not retaiu the most delicate 0
nourishment on her stomach. I then
agreed with Dr. Sullivan, my family physi- re
cian, to. call Dr. Holloway in consultation.
They made a final examination of the d<
Eatient and pronounced the case hopeless. ?
>r. Holloway then suggested the Brewer's "T
Lung Restorer as a last resort. I sent for a _|
bottle and gave her a dose. I found that
she could retain it on her stomach and -n
? ' J-l-??J J T "U . * i.^v
aiier acorn; trie nuru ause, j. ucgnu wj
notice some improvement in her condition.
I continued the medicine regularly, and by e.
the time she had taken two bottles, she ^
was able to walk about the house. She is
now in better health than she has enjoyed ;
for several years. I believe that Lung
Restorer saved her life. We have a family of
six children, some of them grown."
