JACOB D. E HLY,

Chairman Eighth Di»t..Com.

Senator Logan made answer in the senate yesterday to the charges recently interpolated in the Congressional Record that he had unlawfully acquired land belonging to the Zuni Indiaus of New Mexico. The denial was sustained by abundant proof, and completely nails a campaign He.

The generous outpouring of people to celebrate the Fourth is evidence that the splendid effects of a good har vest are already felt. The yi§ld of wheat in this county is so much better than was expected in the spring that farmers and merchants felt inclined to observe the Fourth in a quiet and day-of-rest like manner.

Although friendly to Fitz John Porter, the New York Herald believes the constitutional objections to the bill were fatal to it. Even if both houses bad voted to pass the bill over the veto, the Herald believes the War Department would get the case in the United States courts, "which would set the bill aside if Mr. Brewster's opinion is good law, and we are afraid it is."

A casual glance at Nast's latest cartoon suffices to show that Harpers are already enjoying a little retribution. It must cause a pang to the editors as they search for the point of the pictorial jokes. However, there is some truth in the suggestion that Butler, Kelly and Pryor "are above suspicion" —they are not suspected any more, for we know them too well.

The French propose to charge China a hundred million for the little affair that recently occurred, which is a clear case of robbery. England advises the Celestials to settle without making a disturbance, which is a clear case of aiding and abetting said robbery, if the report be true. The most Christian nations do not give the pagan empire a very good example of honor and fair dealing.

Free trade planks in Democratic platforms in a large, liberal way assume that the whole country is taxed to support a few manufacturers, and the average political debater in the same faith plaintively wails the same wail. Let us see, what is the triflng interest bulwarked by the tariff laws. The census of 18S0 returns 253,840 manufacturing establishments, with $2,790,000,000 capital, employing 2,738,950 hands, who received in the year §947,950,000 wagesand produced $5,370,000,000 in manufactures. The total number employed in manufacture and mining was 3,837,000.

The Cincinnati Commercial-Gazette hits the nail on the head in speaking of the bolters: "There has been a grest deal said within a few weeks about the alleged Independents, partly because there has been very little else before the people that was novel. "No mystery attaches to Blaine or Logan. The country knows them. They were fairly nominated, and are the only Republican candidates for the presidency and vice presidency. The professed Republicans who oppose them have been as noisy as grasshoppers in proportion to their numbers. They have stood up and counted themselves frequently and vociferously. "When the Democratic candidates are presented, the interest in the Independents will vanish. The great folly of looking to the Democratic party for any measure of reform is already clear to the average understanding. When the Chicago work is done there will be no chance for doubt. The citizens who belong to the Democratic party may have a lingering faith in its possibilities for good, but there is no excuse for those who do not belong to the party for the entertainment of any such notion. "The Independents demonstrated themselves in the Repubiican Chicago convention to be the incapables of their day and generetion. They were at Chicago for an impossible candidate— Mr. Edmunds. They were very eloquent about him, but their eloquence made no impression or if any, the effect was to remove him a little further than ever before from the sympathy and confidence of presidentmakers. "The fame and popularity of Blaine was obvious from the start. The Independents fought a battle on the temporary organization and won it, but they could not utilize their victory."

An old proverb said, "Tell me who you live with, I'll tell you who you are." Another saying, a progressive French idea, is "We have changed all that." Good people nowadays do not always flock together. All kinds of rings overlap each other, and we are taught by modern writers, either like Dickens, or Bret Harte, to look in very shady places for ragged or speckled saints. It is more comfortable, and perhaps more christian, to look for gomething good in doubtf"1characters^

than to search for flaws in those supposed to be perfect. It must be confessed that there is a propensity to say, "I told you so" when some open saint proves to be a bidden rascal, bttt it iB an evidence of an advance towards that charity which thinks no evil, is always kind and not concerted, when there is a growing tendency, as shown by our literature, to look for virtue and goodness among tbe suspected and despised. We are advancing towards good as we cease to make demi-gods of our faVotites and to crucify whom ftn abhor. Slander and scandal seem to flourish with unabated vigor but to offset them is more charity.

The "peculiar people" who once by seclusion became phariaaical, and had a holier-than-thou air, have lost their exclusiveness and enjoy the occasional virtues of the sinners without being corrupted by their more obtrusive peccadilloes. It would lead to a pleasant existence to take people as they are—-for instance, if a gambler is a gentleman to you, be a gentleman to him if a peculiarly disagreeable party is sunny to you then shine on him. There is a moral in the story of the benevolent youth, who, unable to say any more for his hotel, remarked that it furnished good tooth picks. The humble offering of a wooden splinter is just that much more than many receive, but own up that you are niggardly, indeed, in not paying for what you get.

In this liberal age we ha76 indeed changed much, and as the human family becomes freer and more enlightened, it is not the little groups one lives in that secures our regard so much as the increasing belief in the common brotherhood of all mankind.

Baby Never Does.

Cincinnati Enquirer. The eminent Dr. Parvin says that a baby should not be allowed to sleep with its mother. Bless his innocent old heart, baby never does sleep with its mother. Its daddy walks the floor with it.

A Bolter in Disguise.

Chicago Inter Ocean. A well-known restaurateur has now in his window a very large and lively green lobster that he has labeled, "A Kicker a Thousand Miles from Home." It is thought to be a New York bolter in disguise.

A Brilliant Record.

Indianapolis Times. We have at last got Colonel Gray's military service down to a fine point, and that he shall no longer be robbed by a partisan press of all the honor due him, we give it as taken from the official records: In the Fourth cavalry he served Ave months and six days, and In the Morgan raid campaign he served five days, making a total of five months and eleven days. He spent the major portion of the first five months in riding up and down in a peaceful section, frightening women and children. The remainder was spent in drawing his salary.

Where Seersucltcr Comes From. Philadelphia Times. Within a few days, accompanying a rising thermometer, the greater part of the masculine business cqmmunity has blossomed out in seersuckers. This curious material, of which a whole suit only weighs nineteen ounces, is made in Calcutta out of silk and Sea Island cotton. It should not be confounded with the material of the same name which the ladies wear, a cheap fabric, made of nothing but cotton. Samuel M. Wanamaker relates the interesting peculiarity about seersuckers that they are the only dresS material for men not bought by the yard, and almost the only one that has to be taken by the importer exclusively "on faith." "It has to be paid for," he says, "a year in advance, when ordered, and it is never known what patterns or how much is coming. It is bought by the box, and each box contains fifty pieces, and the pieces may be

Bmall

or they may be large. They

may be blue stripes or bull stripes or even red stripes. It is all chance, and whatever comes has to be kept. There is no way of sending it back. Sometimes in dressing it with ice water the material becomes discolored, and should that be the case it has to be taken just the same. There is no redress. It is a cool heathen garment from

hot heathen land."

Reforming the Civil Service, Mr. Dorman B. Eaton, president of the United States civil service commission says: The secretary of war has taken more than thirty persons under the civil service rules, and more than one-third of them have already been promoted. Every one appointed in the department who has served out his six months' probation hat been permanently appointed. In the war and post office departments they have extended the rules to include $700 places. The participation by members of congress in the details of appointments has been growing less and less. Not one case in twentyfive now comes before the commission in which members of congress are interested. More women are being examined in proportion to places awarded them by the departments than men. It would seem that there must have been an excess of women by reason of the pressure brought to bear in their favor. Now that the secretaries have a real liberty to take men or women as convenience or service demands, they require men in as many as three-fourths of the vacancies.

Choroform for Cholera.

General Jordan of the Mining Record.

A tablespoonful of chloroform in about four times as much water is an infallible cure for cholera. A doctor who had lived in Mobile, Ala., and had great success in curing people during a cholera epidemic there, told me about it. When, in the Cuban revolution, I had a chauce to try the remedy, for a cholera epidemic broke out among the troops. My first experiment was on a negro who was in the laBt stages. It cured him and hundreds after him. When we marched the officers carried bottles ot chloroform, and if a man fell out, sick with cholera, the remedy was applied and he was able to resume his place. I have seen men lying by the roadside in a state of collapse, almost dead. An officer would ride up, dismount and apply the remedy, and before the column had passed the man would be in the ranks again.

A Greater Than the Brooklyn Bridge. New York Times.

The Brooklyn bridge was the largest span and is considered the largest bridge in the world. But we will soon be obliged to yield the palm of having the biggest bridge to another country. There is now building over the Firth or Forth, in Scotland, abridge of two pans, each of which is as long as the Brooklyn bridge. This is the greatest bridge ever designed anywhere.

So much has been said and written of the work that it is hardly worth while to discuss its merits again. But it certainly may be said that, as a religious representation it is not successful, though as a work of art it is a great picture, and it strikes even the most untutored observer as in many ways remarkable. It was four or five years ago that Munckacey, after having worked for twenty years at his art, throw down his brushes in despair, and vowed never to handle them again because he had failed to satisfy himself in his efforts to carry out his conception of several important pictures. Not long after, however, a friend urged the artist to paint a few panels.

PASTOR AND PEOPLE.

David, King Over All Israel, the Sab ject of the Sunday School -1 Lesson. Jr

THE SUNDAY SCHOOIi.

Lesson for July 6—Subject: "David King Over all Israel"—ii. Sam. v., 1-12

According to the plan of the International committee, which is to devote alternate periods of six months to the study of the Old and New Testament Scriptures, we now turn back in our lessons, and for the next Bix months will confine our study to the Old Testament, beginning with the acknowl edgement of David as king over all Israel. For some time David had been acknowledged king in Judab, but Israel, or the rest of the tribes, had not so acknowledged him, having clung to the house of Saul. Under the strong leadership of Abner, Saul's old commander, who no doubt was sincerely attached to the house of Saul, but who was prob ably moved by personal ambition and jealousy. Ishboeheth had been nude king over Israel. But he seems to have been a weak man, totally incapable of ruling, fond of luxury and ease Abner, who was really the ruling mind and the strong arm of Ishbosheth, had been slain by Joab, and the power of Ishbosheth had fallen. Two captains of bands, now supposed that they might gain favor with David, assassinated Ishbosheth, and cams and told David. But they little knew the king. Instead of rewarding them, he repudiated their act as he had done that of Joab, who slew Abner, and had these two assassins executed at once. There was none to dispute his power now, and the elders of the tribes of Israel conferred together, and came to the wise conclusion that it was best for them to acknowledge David king. Ac cordingly they came to him at Hebron and made their submission, and then annointed him as king.

When David came to the throne of Israel the national life was unorgan ized, and almost anarchie, as may be seen from the acts of Joab in murdering Abner, and the two captains in assassinating Ishbosheth, all expecting rather to find favor with David and be rewarded than to be punished. He framed it into institutions, and so established his government that even the corruption which flourished in the reign of his son, and the folly of his son's son, producing secession and division, were not able combined to utterly overthrow those institutions.

In spite of corruption within and powerful enemies without, the king dom which he organized lasted for centuries. He perfected the army which Joshua.had organized and Samuel had developed. He divided the national militia into twelve divisions, each of which was "tailed out for one month in the year. At the head of the army when in active service, he aDDOinted a commander in-chief. He established a permanent

The secret of his success seems to belong to the complete organization he brought about in everything he undertook.

In the Christian warfare as well as any other undertaking there must be organization and discipline. We may criticise the churches and creeds, but 'these are necessary to the great work of Christianity. Th.e church may at times be over-zealous for organizatio and the people may pay more attention to creed than to Christ, but while these are faults to be regretted, we cannot abolish church' nor creed and still have Christianity succeed. A small body may move without machinery, but not such an army as is now gathered under tbe Christian standard. In the days of Christ and His apostles the little band of believers did not need the machinery that is necessary in this day. As in Christianity so it is in business and politics. The man whose whole stock in trade can be carried on his back does not need much system but when he has increased that to the proportions of one of the great wholesale houses in Chicago, he needs as much machinery as if he had a great factory. And while in the little colony of half a hundred souis there may be pure democracy, and all questions of government be settled in a_ general council of all interested parties, such would not be practicable in a nation of fifty millions of people. It is, then, idle to talk of pure democracy and the absence of the machinery of government. As it is with the nation, so it is with the great parties into which the people are divided upon great questions. It is as idle to talk about an absence of machinery in politics as it is to talk about churches without creeds and articles of faith and rules of government.

which grew in Israel into a standing army. And it seems that it we trace back the army system we shall find that to David is due the credit for the organization which distinguishes an army from a mob. He divided the army into regiments and companies which still exist in all armies to this day.

The civil organization was carried even to greater perfection than the military. It was arranged in departments for pastoral, agricultural, and financial purposes. A court or council of the king was formed. A historian was appointed to superintend the records and archives of the nation. The religious services, which had fallen into disuse, were re-established the schools of the prophets were fostered the priests were reinstated and their order recognized provision was made on a grand scale for music, of which the king was extremely fond leaders of the temple choir were appointed, and the Levites were organized in two companies— one of the singers, the other of guardians and servators of the tabernacle and the projected temple. This reorganization of the kingdom was the work of time and was constantly inter rupted by wars but in these wars every campaign was a success, and within ten years from the capture of Jerusalem David led reduced to a state of subjection the Philistines of the west, the Moabites of the east, tbe Syrians on the northeast as far as the Euphrates, the Edomites on the south, and finally the Ammonites, who had broken their ancient allegiance and made one grand resistance to the advance of his empire. In King David we find that combination of the gifted writer and the able executive so rarely seen.

Denver Symptoms.

New York Sun.

JA nervous young man, with a wide hat, a dude shirt, and corduroy trousers tucked in the bottom of his boots, was a passenger down the Thiidavenue Elevated road last evening. At Forty-seventh street, where the scents from Hunter's Point were strong, he bee me more nervous than before. "D ^ou sniff anything on nateral?" he said to a neighbor. "No' for this locality." "Wall, I do. I smelt it oncet in Denver."

The train ran on to Thirty-fourth street, when a blue-coated messenger got on ar.d sat down opposite the nervous man.

Pretty soon a green tin lizard crawled out from under the boy's hand. It caught the eye of the nervous man as it wriggled across a vacant seat. He clutched the arm of his neighbor. "D'—d'—d' you s-s-see onytbing onnateral?" he stammered, panting at the lizard. The train was slowing for Twenty-eight street. "I see nothing at all." "It's jest as I had 'em in DenverFust I smelled brimstone and then I see allygaters. I knowed Nye Yorick pizen 'od fetch me," and the excited cowboy rushed to the platform, straddled over the gate, wTiich had been closed, and disappeared.

There is nothing in the line of magic or mystery about that wonderful and popular medicine, Parker's Tonic. It is simply the best and most scientific combination possible of tbe essential principles of those vegetable curatives which act powerfully and directly on the stomach, liver, kidneys and blood. But there neither is, nor will be, any successful imitation of it. Ii is all the time curing those who had despaired of ever getting well. For yourself, your wife and children.

mean "Poisoned with Potash." This is the case with hundreds who have been unwise enough to Sarsaparillas, Potash mixtures, etc., until digestion is almost fatally impaired. Swift's Specific is a vegetable remedy, and restores the system to health and builds up the waste made by these poisons. "I was suffering with Blood Poison, and treated several months with Mercury and Potash, only to make me worse. The Potash took away my appetite and gave me dyspepsia, and both gave me rheumatism. I then took Sarsaparillas, etc. All these Sarsaparilla mixtures have Potash in them. This made me still worse, as it di ove the poison farther into my svstem. A friend insisted I should take Swift's Specific, and it cured me of the Blood Poison, drove he Mercury and Potash out of my system, and to-day I am as well as I ever was."

GEO. O. WELLMAN, Jit., Salem, Mass, John A. Smith, the largest merchant in Gainesville, Ga., say: "i .suffered for years from the combined effects of Erysipelas and Eczema. I continued to grow worse under medical treatment and by taking medicine containing Potash. S. S. S. cured me thoroughly and absolutely. My appetite, strength and flesh returned as I was cured with it."

MARVELOUS STORY

TOLD N TWO LETTERS,

FROM THE SON:

Gentlemen:

Yours truly, W. M. PHTLUPS."

FROM THE FATHER

Ayer's Sarsaparilla.

Six months ago I was completely covered with a terrible humor and scrofulous sores. The humor caused an incessant and intolerable itching, and the skin cracked so as to cause the blood to flow in many places whenever I moved. My sufferings were great, and my life a burden. I commenced the use of the SARSAPARILLA in April last, and have used it regularly since that time. My condition began to improve at once. The sores have all healed, and I feel perfectly well in every respect—being now able to do a good day's work, although 73 years of age. Many inquire what has wrought such a cure in my case, and I tell them, as I have here tried to tell you, AYKR'S SARSAPARILLA.

21,1882. Yours gratefully,

KTWAK

ADMINISTRATOR'S NOTICE.

My father resides at Glover,

Ayer's Sarsaparilla

h«« had in his ease. I think his blood most have contained the humor for at least ten years but it did not show, except in the form of a scrofulous sore on the wrist, until about five years ago. From a few spots which appeared at that time, it gradually spread so aa to cover his entire Iwdy. I assure you he waa terribly afflicted, and an object of pity, when he began using your medicine. Now, there are few men of his age who enjoy as good health as he has. I could easily name fifty persona who would'testify to the facts in his case.

2 0 0 0 Patients cured since the institution was opened last winter in Terre Haute. The officers return thanks for the patronage received from Indiana and surrounding states. This is the ISth year since the establishment of the United States Medical Institute, first at Cleveland, now there is a branch office in most every state in the Union and Canada. They employ only skilled, experienced, and successful physicians and surgeons, they must be graduates of some first-class college of this country and members of the royal college of physicians and surgeons, England, because the institution is in both countries. Persons who have not succeeded to get cured by other physicians, should .apply to us at once either personally or by letter, for most of the diseases that have been hitherto considered incurable we have in mose cases been successful in curing, for we cure cases every day that has been pronounced Incurable by the best of physicians, both in this country and other countries. We are graduates of Allopathy, Homeopathy and Eclectic schools of medicine, but follow no creeds or Isms. Our motto: "Cure the people and build up the constitution."
