WEDNESDAY, MARCH 10. Uncle Dick Thoxi-sox won't run be prefers siiliDg. Gratt is having a splendid lima in Mexico. Diaz is doing the handsome thing by the general. Boston's March dividends reaches $3.338,. 864. It is the greatest dividend city for its population in the world. Grast wili make a tour through the Southern States, and capture every Republican delegate in all the land ot the cotton and the cane. There are 11 National banks in Chicago. Their circulation on the 21st of February, last amounted to $619,050, and their deposits to $36,892,500. Their loans reached a total of $2J,288,107, and the undivided profits are stated at $673,579. The New York Erprees wants the Chinamen, who are leaving Sin Francisco, to 6tay In the West, where there is room for them; but the room is better than the Chinamen's company, which is equivalent to savin? there is no room for them. It was bad enough for General Fiiz John Porter to be condemned by a CDurt organized to convict, but to be kicked by such a mule as John Logan is something still woree; and the whole country is humiliated by the fact that the Associated Tress is compel'ed to pay for the transmission of the miss of malignity over the wires. It is an outrage. Theke is not much disDUte amousf Republicans that the Hayes administration will go Into history as oae of the purest and bent the country ever had. .News. Hayes is the only man who has reached the presidential office by fraud and perjury, and having reached it by such means he has rewarded the perjured villains with lucrative Federal olncep, who are now enjoying the fruits of their crimes. To characterize sue1 an administration as "one of the purest and best the country ever had" U a blasphemous defamation of the characters of every president from Washington to Grant. The opposition manifested to General FItz John Porter by certain Republicans of the Logan scd Garne'.d type is undoubtedly the meanest exhibition of partisan malice, and of a bvastly nature, to be found on record anywhere in the civilized world. It is not j required that we should say that the first ; courtmartial that tried General Porter was organized to convict and to commit murder under military law. It is not necessary to say that the men who tried and convicted Fitz John Porter thirsted for his blood, that his dead body might screen from the gaze of the world the errors of General Pope; but there are those living who believe such was the purpoee and ths heartless conduct of a setof militaryand civil poltroons at this j juncture emphasis?? the belief. But fortu- I nately for General Portef and for the good name of American soldiers, ?uch. men as Generals Schoti9ld, Terry and Getty, all Republicans, pronounced him innocent. They were his judges and thei decision forever settles the question. They all are prejudiced rgainst General Porter by the findings of the first roan, but the testimony as brought out on the second trial was so overwhelming, not only in establishing his innocence, but in showing him to have been a brave and patriotic soldier, that Gjnerals Getty and Terry have both expref sad a conviction that they ought to apologies to Ganeral Forter for any feelings of hostility they had ever entertained. To deny such a man justice, or to prolong the ordeal of discussion, ia an unmitigated outrage, deserving tie severest denunciation. No partisan questions can be dragged into the case, and Congress now having the matter in hand, should speedily as pcssible end it, and permit General Forter to erjjoy a few days of that eatiefaction which a triumphant vindication only can confer. CONSTITUTION COBBLING AMENDMENT NO 1. This amendment No. 1 providefvthat ba fore a citizjn Is entitled to vote he must Lave resided CO dayB In the township and 50 days in the ward or precinct in which be offers to vote piior to the election, and that he must have been al.-o "duly registered according to law." An amendment, In parliamentary law, means simply a change of the original proposition. It does cot convey the notion of improvement or betterment at all; is frequently directly adverse to the main purpose of the primary measure, and intended to defeat and destroy it. In this sense No. 1 may be regarded as an am ndmentto the present constitution, cd in no other. We are not prepared to say that any of the so-called amendments ought to be adopted. To treat them all with Impartial Indifference we will doubtless be within the line ot correct judgment in saying that the firt of these self styled amendments is the trortt; and if there be any good ones In the batch they are found in very bad company. The present constitution provides that "all elections shall be free and equal" section 1, article 2. Theeffact of the proposed amendment is to nullify this section and to establish a very unjust and odious discrimination against both the freedom and equality of elections. The so-called distinctions of society are well known, but much less felt, under a republican form of government, thin aDy other, yet the hatred of castes and the hostility of classes are things not to be tempted, nor to be fostered or encouraged. This measure will do that very thing, which ought to be avoided. This proposition tends, indirectly, to create a property qualification for the voter. Under this proportion a man without a fixed residence is deprived of the right to vote. There is a large class of the citixens of Indiana who under it will be virtually disfranchised. Take, for example, the farm hand, working In the country by the day or month, who carries his home under his hat, and his personal property in a bundle upon his back, his job at the place of employment is ended and hi $ domicile ended with it. Sixty days prior to some pending lectloa h can not remove to another townahip or county in search of employment without losing his vote. To vote ha must

remain where he is without work. Unless he can command employment at a certain place and at a certain time he is disfranchised. Is this fair, free or equal? Is this the enjoyment of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness? or Is it not rather a species of despotism and downright tyranny which aays"n' wagn or no rote,'-' thus forcing upon him the bitter alternative of non-employment or disfranchisement. Or, take the man of like means and cir

cumstances, the young laborer or journeyman in the city, residing in the garret of a .third or fourth story, wishing to move across a street, ever so short a distance into another ward, where his lodging may be more cozy or comfortable, or more convenient to his work. Now, he may do so but adopt this amendment and he is held fast a fatal spell forbids locomotion; it is only 30 days to the next election; he must stay where he is; or, if he moves, must loose the right of suffrage. Would It not hare been much bolder and better for the enemies of equal rights, at once, to have established a voting rats of $500 or $1,000. than by such a baldfaced obliquity as this, to attempt the dis franchisement of so largs a body of our fellow-cltizsns? The present constitution provides tbat a man may be disfranchised upon conviction of an infamous crime, and it is the only cause now known. But this amendment makes poverty this Infamous crime. Under its provisions the felon and the poor man are classed together, and are both deprived of the right to vote. The unfair and compulsory Influence of employers upon their employes has, in many sections of the country, in the matter of elections, given rise to gross scandals and serious complaint. The pretended amendment tends to increase that influence and to afford additional opportunity for its exercise. The vindictive, partisan employer will, under its operation, have no need of showing his hand in the affiir at all. He need not say, "Vote my ticket, or I will discharge you;" "vote my ticket, and It will be batter for you; or you will lose nothing by it;" he med only wait until the fiftieth day, turn off his men, and their power to vote is gone. Under the pressnt regulation it requires soma degree of courage, or, at least, effroatsry, to Ödet his object, but under the change proposed any skulk or coward may attain his base purpose in comparative ilenca and secrecy. Fopular indifference as to elections has always, in free governments, been a sign of decay. It has been tioaght best that all citizens should have the r'ght and discharge the dQty of the eIect,T. frincbi9a. The noa voting c!aas of citizen in Indiana has been heretofore very small. All of us have bean hitherto directly and personally interested in the government and management of our public affairs. But pass this amendment and there is an end of all this. There is not a township or ward in the State in which quite a number of Citizens will not fled themselves 8uddenly di;franchiaed. And this condition of thinea on from t -pa. frftm bad to worst. -i'üül we shall have a large j portion of our peopl wholly without inter- ; est to tactions aci disqualified from taking j any part in thenl. The whole scheme of this amendment is a ! )tlniocmry, a government of the rich, or the j comparatively rich, at the expense of the ' poor to the loss and disparagement of the i rights of the poor. We earnestly insist that the : old text shall ttand: "All elections shall be ; fee and equal." We do not tbmk that in ' the historyof free commonwealths there has j been a more nefarious attempt to rob a portion of our people of their rights than is ; made in this amendment, an attempt which ' seeks to make means, not mind; bullion, not brains; property, nq probity, the tt 'or the exerciee of manhood suffrage; a right which has been hitherto accorded to all and denied to none, except for crime whereof the party has been duly convicted. A non" voting class of citizens is always a dissatisfied clasp, a revolutionary class; and any restriction upon the right of .suffrage based upon propertj, either directly or indiiestly, has a tendency to nurse and excite a condition of lawlessness and violence the worst enemies ot a free State. We Lave heretofore discussed this proposition without any allusion to the registry law with its long train of machinery and expenditure, which is clearly Indicated In the amendment. We are aware tbat Senator Seete and other supporters of this amendment, while they argue the propriety, deny the necessity of Euch a law, in case of its adoption. But other qtite as good lawyers express a different opinion, and the text of the section proposed plainly requires it. Why, we ask, should a measure of such grave character, now approved by the action of two Legislatures, be ao doubtful in its terms as already to suggest the necessity of an amendment to the amendment? Upon such an Important subject as the change of the organic law of our State, there certainly ought to be a clear understanding as to the effect of the change proposed. This amendment is so faulty in its structure as to leave Its own authors and advocates In the dark as to its meaning. We think that such a stealthy, treacherous trap and pitfall ought to fail, if for no other reason because of the duplicity and double-dealing of the terms in which it is submitted to the free people whose approval it court. riSH CULTURE VS. AGRICULTURE. Agriculturists of the whole country should take notice that Congress aeems much more disposed to cultivate fish than farm producta Qalte recently, as late as February 4, a joint resolution passed the National House of Representatives, appropriating $20,000 to enable the United States commissioner ot fish and fisheries to exhibit in Berlin, Germany, nect month, April, 1830. a fair and full collection of different specimens of American food fishes, costs thereof, models of, and implements, ete. This may be well enough; In fact, it may be the right thing to do, but it should not be forgotten that while Congress if so lavish of the public funds to advance fish culture, it is exceptionally parsimonious when General Le Dao asks for appropriations neceseary to promote the agricultural in tercets of the country. Strange as it may appear, it ia not more strange than true, that fiihea have the lead, and that bays, lakes and rivers where

fish can be produced, are of more consideration than forest, field and farm, from ocean to ocean, and It Is even now reqnirirg a bard fight to secure for pork packen free salt, while fish packer have enjoyed that great blessing for years, t should fur

ther be remembered that the United States, not long since, had to pay to England $",- 000,000 in gold to settle a fish quarrel bstween the Yankees and her majssty's Cana dian subjects. In view of such facts we submit that the farmers of the country sb.utd demand tbat General Ls Due has sufficient funds to achieve success in the department of agriculture. We are glad to believe this subject is at tracting merited attention, and that a more liberal policy will be demanded, and at an early day inaugurated. We are cot dis posed to underrate fish culture as an industry, or in any of its bearings upon trade, or the food supply of the world; butadmitting all that is claimed for it, the fish business of the world, bo far aa we have the figures at hand, falls infinitely below the magnitude ot a single item of onr agricultural producta. Hon. Levi P.. Morton, in a speech delivered in Congress, February 4, 1880, urging tbe appropriation of $20,000 for the Berlin fish exhibit. Mid: InlxtO-'äO salmon cost 20 times the price it commanded when we ceased to be colonies of Great Britain. The Connecticut river, which had been one or tbe moHt fertile flh rtreams In the world, became almost depleted. Few, however, understand the method of replenishing; onr waters from which tbe mot valuable species of fish have been banished. This result la due to a discovery made in Germany, and afterward In France, that floh can be propagated to almost any extent by artificial means. This simple fact baa led to the creation of one of the moHt Important Industrie ot modern times. The nations of the world have derived incalculable benefit from this discovery, and we are now Invited to join lu an International comparison of the chaiacter of our fish and tbe methods of our fish culture. It Is to this science to which I have referred, aud which this resolution is designed to encourage and extend, that we owe the restocking of our waters; to this ve owe the fact that millions of youcv: shad were hatched at Holyoke, Mats , and turned Into tbe Connecticut river. In view of the declaration tbat fish culture is "one ot the most important industries of modern times," it Is well enough to introduce Mr. Morton's figures by which he seeks to substantiate his declaration. He says: The following are a few figures showing the comparative production aud consumption of fish by the loading nations of the world : Annual Pro- Annual Conduction, sumption. Norway titt.mo.ixrti Sl.Oi)O.(XK) France - IZ.mnjw it M-vhO I'liited Hates KJflK.Hf) M,777.(ii0 Great Britain 7 .:, W H.I.XUX) Russia. 5,7li,0U0 N.tfjX.W) Here we have the figures showing an an nual production of fish by the "ieading nations ot the world" amounting to JtS.xö.'J,800, and a consumption by theBame"leadicg nations" amounting to $"7,710,7S, while the production of wheat in tbe State of Indiana in the year 1S7'J exceeds in value tbe entire production of all the fish produced by the "leaiing nations of the world." We sub mit, if Congress does not hesitate to be liberal when fish money is asked for, it should be far more liberal when General Le Due asks for funds to enable him to SO'ye satisfactorily any of the problems relating to agriculture, and tbe farmers of the United States should fee to it that the-ir interests are not dwarfed, but dignified by a mere liberal policy. CLIPPINGS. Lk;an ia the darkest horse in the presidential race. All the rest look like blon Je alongside of him. O.vk ferlous drawback to Sherman's canvass L tbe fact tli&t fie hasn't enough treasury orllces to go around. Up to the present time R'alce has hud all tbe boom and Grant has got the delegates. This can hardly be called a fair division. Tuf. Evansvllle Journal saya that Tilden'g style of argument seems to be very convincing. It has been applied to the Cincinnati Enquirer, and that journal is now aa amiable and docile as he could wish. THE Keudalvllle (Ind.) News says of the presidential contest that W. H. English Is lo'nilugup. Whichever place Indiana Is ac corded upou the pretidental ticket Mr. English will be the man. It seems to us. Bioomisoton Lkadek: The Peoria Transcript lustbts that the people are not in favor of Grant's nomination. Well, if this Is the cae, Urant won't be nominated, and there is no particular ueeslty of getting fighting mad over the matter. Ci.EVKi.A5fT Herald (Rep.): General Garfield is not, and will not be, a candidate for president, and stands squarely aud flatly upon hin letter, recommending the Republicans of Ohio to give their united vote in favorof John Sherman for president. David S. Founet, of Virginia, has a dog that saw a man take his master's pocket book and go away with it. Upon being allowed out doors, the dog went to the place where it was hid, took It from the top of a high fence, and brought It to hw master, laying it in his hand. On the doorstep of a houxe lu Baa Francisco a dog fouud a pitcher thai had Just been filled by a milkman. lie pnt his nose Into the pitcher and drank till it touched the bottom. He was about to withdraw his head, but the pitcher would not come off till it was broken. Ahiio. for the restortln of capital punishment is before the Wisconsin Legislature, and aJanesvllle merchant, to test public sentiment on the subject, made a canvass among his customers who were electors. Out of , tlMiumor one day's vote, 37 favored and 32 opposed the bill. Thk Louisville Democrat Is pleased to think tbat the selection of Cincinnati for the Democratic National convention may be taken as. In a general way, favorable to the selection of some Western man for the head of the presidential ticket. The party has bad bad luck with New York candidates, It says. Tue ßrookvllle (Ind.) Sentinel thinks Hon. William H. English is the best man for President, and says that New York has had tbe first place on the ticket for 20 years, and the .Democracy have been beaten, or swindled out of the prize every time. Give us a Western man, aud oae that has tome nerve. Thi St. Louis Post-Dlipaleh says that never have Democratic prospeota been brighter than now, since Democracy stands for the preservation of the Kepubllo, while false, df generate and degraded Republicanism marches toward centralization, Imperialism and the absolute one-man power toward the destruction of real popular self-government. Rock Mlajiij Arqcs: Senator David Davis la being prominently mentioned for the Democratic nomination and not without ralr prospect of saoceaa. Possessed of undoubted ability, unimpeachable private character, and

a clean record politically, he would be a most formidable competitor for the presidency and would be triumphantly elected. Thk New York. World says: Don Cameron, according to our Washington dispatcher, has assured a Southern relator that he "held In his hand" a force of 100,000 men who would be marched from Pennsylvania to Washington "to Inspect the electoral count." Perhaps he meant that he held them in his eye. Or awful thought! can it be that Mr. Henry Watterson, of Louisville, Ky.. has been "unloading?" The Bpewoer Free Press says that William H. English, of Indiana, ia spoken of as a prob, able candidate before the National Democratic convention for the office of president. Helsa good statesman, an honorable and upright politician, and a Democrat of the first water, and if nominated will receive tbe support of a large class of persona untrammeled by party prejudices. English, of Indiana, and Heymour, Jr., of New York, would make the success of Democracy In the coming contest a foregone conclasion. The Cleveland Plalndealer Kays who amongst the many Democratic leaders, named In connection with the presidency, will be the most certain to carry the electoral vote of th- State of New York? The true way to Democratic success Is to nominate the man who will poll the most Democratic votes in the Empire State. Whoever the nominee may be he must not have a blemish In his character, nor should his polltirrU history, which will have to undergo the most searching investigation that an unscrupulous party can Invent, be at any point vulnerable or weak? Ose of the cattle king of Colornij, during a At o? temporary Insanity, on Sunday nigbt assaulted several persons in a sleeping-car on the Kansas Paclflc railroad. About 10 o'clock he began pounding his wife unmercifully. Her screams only made him worse, and he drew a loug knife and slashed away at the occupants or the upper berth, cutting an old Englishman severely in the arm and side. By this time the conductor entered the car, and the assailant rushed at him with tbe knife, saying he would kill hiru. With rare presence of mind the conductor succeeded in convincing him that he was bis friend, and would help him to clean out the whole car, if necessary. Peokia Journal: Eor the not e the Blaine men make, they achieve the poorest showing when It comes to a convention th U ever was seen. So tar they have been beaten at every point, and all they have beeu able to do is to cackle about it. With New York and Pennsylvania lost to them, and the whole South solid against them, wheie Is the Blaine movement to find a resting place? He may

indeed carry Illinois, bat he had tills Slate before aud it did him no good. When the brethren meet in Chicago they will find the "outside pressure" there as much Grant as Iilalue, if not more to. Blaine has some strength Just enough to make him a strong second choice; but we never yet beard of a second choice doing auy good. Thk Bos on Herald is of opinion that the fact that Senator Bayard was opposed to the war of lStil, he being then a young man not in public life, is not a very serious charge to bring against him In 1NSJ. Many good aud patriotic men looted with horror upou the opening of civil mrife. Perhaps those who paused with dread saw further than those who did not hesitate. If it had be-en uuderstox! that the war was to last four years, and that half a million lives and a bulion of treasure were to be thrown Into Its horrible vortex.lt would never have been begun. One-tenth of the cost o? the war would have paid for all the slaves in the country. It was a fearful price to pay, but the war could not be avoided. Two civilizations clashed, afid neither would surrender until the appeal to arms had been tried, and tried to the bitter end for one of them. The conflict, so much dreaded and so often delayed by compromises, was, indeed, irrepressible. But now it is over, and the caue has been eradicated. Tbe business of to-day is to bind up the wounds of the war, to allay sectional prejudices, and to allow the country to progress aud harmonize. While we believe tbat Northern ideas and Northern civilization must continue to govern the country, because they best represent American Institutions aud are most progressive, we can not fall to see that we have entered upon a new era, and that the war and Its questions re left behind. HendrU-ks. Petersburg (111.) Democrat.l Although we have no special candidate for tbe presidency, the late efforts of leading journals to advance the interests of different aspirants has convinced us that none of those men are the most available as Democratic standard-bearers in the presidential race which we are just entering. It is true they are all able end sound statesmen, bnt many of them are not available. They are not available becausa they could not awaken that enthusiastic following which the candidate to be successful ought to awaken. Betides some of them are too tenacious of questions which are more directly local in application. This is the case with the financial question. In certain sections cf the country certain theories are regarded the only sound ones for a successful financial policy; while in others those theories are very obnoxious to a large following of tbe Democratic faith. There are two extreme theories which may be regarded rather more lorat than national in their application. Neither can be made successful as a national creed. A half way position is tbe best. That can be best attained by relegating it and th tariff question to the congressional districts for adjustment. When that, ia done, greater care will be observed by conventions in naming candidates, and in our opinion a better, and more permanent solution of the financial question will be attained than it is pofsible otherwise. It is because of the peculiar views of those different presidential aspirants that their friends have been unable to awaken a spirit of enthusiasm for them. So it will be necessary to take a representa tive man from same central point who will be able to harmonizs those conflicting opinions. In casting about for such a man we are led to believe that Thomas A. Hendricks is the man above all others. The surroundings are very propitious for his friends to advance his name to the front, and make a bold, vigorous rieht for him. He could carry the South, New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Indiana, and several other Western States. His nomination can be secured it his friends will enter the fight earnestly and vigorously. Tbe great body of tbe Democratic voting citizens prefer him to any other candidate named; and if his friends will face politicians who, for sinister motive?, are attempting to advance the cause of others, and make a bold, honorable and manly fight for him, he will be the next president. Is Cheese Unwholesome? Farmer's Revlew.J This Is a question not Infrequently propounded, and not infrequently answered, in this country at least. In the affirmative. Like a good many other questions of this kind, it may be rightly answered In a somewbat ambiguous way, "It is and Is not" Aa commonly eaten in this country, it is for the reason that the American consumer can be rarely persuaded to eat it after It Is 60 days old and over. Grocerymen usually want cheese scarcely more than IS to 30 days old for their retail trade, and at this age there is no donbt that it can not be eaten heartily and frequently with impunity. When cheese is over CO dayi old then ia no food more wholesome and nourishing.

WASHINGTON. A Eeminlscence of Aaron Burr's Scheme of Empire.

The New Minister to Mexico Story of Aaron Burr's Revolutionary Project Sketch of an Old American Family. TNew York Herald. Washington, March 1. A singular incident in the family history of Judge Philip II. Morgan, the new minister to Mexico, who is expected here this week, is spoken of as giving a peculiar appropriateness to his appointment and likely to secure him a warm welcome in Mexico. Judge Morgan's great grandfather was a colonel in the Revolutionary war, a personal friend of General Washington and well acquainted with Aaron Burr. After the close of the war Colonel Morgan settled on a large estate called Morgacza, in Western Pennsylvania, and here Burr paid him a visit with tbe hope, as the event proved, to induce Colonel Morgan's two sons to join him in bis contemplated expedition against Mexico and design to establish a Southwestern empire. Bat be literally reckoned without bis host, who became so indignant with Burr that the ex-vice president did not think it prudent to disclose his plans in full, but was rash enough to say at me umner taoie one cay when warmed with wine that, "With 500 men the city of New York could be taken, and with 200 Congress could be driven into the river." The dinner table was thrown into disorder by this speech, but Colonol Morgan's young est son, afterward General John Morgan, rep'ied botly: "JJy God, sir, with that force you can not take our little town of Cannonsburg," which joined his father's lands; to which Burr coolly replied: '"Confine yourself to this side of the moun tain, if you please, and I'll not contradict you," and then left the table. Next morning he left the house before breakfast and proceeded on his visit to Blennerhassett inland, in the Ohio. Colonel Morgan had, however, gathered ecocgh of Burr's scheme to enable him to warn President JefTersop, who replied, asking him to act as a gocd citizen by "farther tracing tbe footsteps of this enterprise." On the trial of Burr at Richmond for "treason and misdemeanor in preparing tbe means of a military expedition against Mexico," Colonel Morgan was one of the witnessfs, and testified to the facts which are set down in the official report of the trial. General John Morgan, who made so patriotic a reply to Burr, was the grand father of the new Mexican minister. H died atMorgaczj in 1317. Judge Morgan's father studied law in Washington, Pa, and removed to Baton Rouge in 1822, where he died in 1S52 It is curious and interesting tbat after 73 years the grandson of the young man who would not allow Burr to talk treason or propo?e filibustering at his father's table, is s?nt as minister to the country against which Burr was then scheming. Judge Morgan is an accomplished Spanish scholar, and familiar also with the law and institutions of Mexico. He was selected for -the place of minister by Secretary Evarts, not only because of these accomplishments, but because be has long 6hown an intelligent appreciation of the value of closer commercial relations between the United States and Mexico, and of the continuance of friendship between tbe two countries. SKXATOU KAVAR OX IIIS SPKECH OF 1861. I Aui in Favor of This Country Keeping at Peace With Itself I Am Opposed to Internecine Strifes." (Washington Dispatch to the Philadelphia liecord.J The attempt of the enemies of Senator Bayard to make political capital against him by publishing the peace speech which he made in 1801, and by accusing him of having been disloyal to tbe Union, has fallen very Hat here. The senator's steadfast and unswerving devotion to the Union is so well known by all who have any acquaintance whatever with him that tun effort to besmirch him is rated at its true value as a political trick. The only interest which attaches to it arises from the veiy general belief which exists here tbat Mr. Tilden was the instigator of this attack on Mr. Bayard. Senator Bayard himself is not troubled by tbe attack. In conversation with your correspondent to-night on the subject, and in reply to a question as to whether be intended to make any reply to tbe charges which have been published, he aid: "The speech itself is my reply, and that has been published. I stood in 18C1 where I stood in 1S71, and where I stand in 1330. I am in favor of this country keeping at peace with itself. I am opposed to iateredne strifes. I was opposed to It in 1 HOL I am opposed to it now, and if," he added, "they (the Republicans) desire to make the next fight upon the issue of opposing fraternal feeiing, the burying of sectional etrife and the establiBhiDg o: a lasting peace, and are dtt rmined to re raise the bloody shirt, I say that for myself, and without any regard to my position in 1801, 1 am in favor now of accepting such an isue and nia&irg the fi'ht upon it. I would present it to the people as often and emphatically as possible, and I believe that we would be sustained by an overwhelming majority of the American people." A Struggle With a Devil Fish. Mr. Smale, the Government diver who was attacked by a large octopus, or devil fish, while at work recently on the bed of the Moyne river, at Belfast, m the colony of Victoria, says the London Times, gives this account of the affair: "Having thrust my arm into a hole, I found it was held by something, and the action of the water was stirring up this loose day, and therefore I could not see distinctly for a few minutes: but when it did clear away I saw to my horror the arm of a large octopus entwined around mine like a boa constrictor, and just then he fixed tome of his suckers on the back of my hand, and the pain was intense. I felt as if my hand was being pulled to pieces, and tbe more I tried to take it away the greater the pain became. I had the greatest difficulty in keeping my feet down, as the air rushed along tbe interior of my dress and Inflated it; and if my feet had got uppermost I would soon have become insensible held in such a position; and, also, if I had given the signal to be pulled up, the brute would have held on, and the chances wouli have been that I shonld have had a broken arm. I bad a hammer with me, but could not reach down to use it on the brute. There was a small iron bsr about five feet from me, and with my foot I dragged this along until I could reach it with my left hand. And now the fight commenced, and the more I etruck him tbe tighter be tqueezed, until my arm got quite benumbed. After a while I found the grip begin to relax a little, bnt he held on until I had almost cut him to pieces, and then be relaxed his hold from the rock, and I pulled him np. I was completely exhausted, having been in that position for over 20 minutes. I brought the animal up, or rather a part of it We laid him out, and he measured over eight feet across, and I feel perfectly convinced that this fellow could have held down five or six men."

Medical Messenger. FALSE AND TRUE. We extract from Dr. Rad way's "Treatise on Disease and Its Cure," as follows: LIST or DISEASBS CÜBIS BT BaM Saiwili Resolrat Chronic Bkln Diseases, Carle of the Bone, Humors in tbe Blood, (Scrofulous Disease, Bad or Unnatural Uablt of Body, Syphilis ana Venereal, Fever Sores, Cfironio or Old Ulcers, Halt Rheum, Rickets, White Swelling. Kcald Head, Uterine Affections, Cankers, Ulandular Hwelllngs, Nodes, Wasting and Decay of the Body, Pimples and Blotches, Tumors, Dyspepsia, Kidney and Bladder Diseases, Chronic Rheumatism and Gout, Consumption, Gravel and Calculous Deposits, and varieties of tbe above complaints to which sometimes are given specious names. We assert that there Is no known remedy that possesses tbe curative power over these diseases that Rad way's Resolvent furnishes. It cures step by step, surely, from the foundation, and restores the Injured prts to their sound condition. The wastes of the body are slopped and healthy blood Is supplied to the system, from which new material Is formed. Tbls Is the nrst corrective power of Rad way's Resolvent. In cases where the system has been salivated, and Mercury, Quicksilver, Corrosive Bubllmate have accumulated and become deposited in the bones. Joints, etc., causing carries of the bones, rickets, spinal curvature, contortions, white swellings, varicose veins, etc., the Sarsapanllian will resolve away those deposits and exterminate the virus cf the disease from the system. If those who are taking these medicines for the cure of chronic, Scrofulous or By philiuc diseases, however slow may be the cure, "feel better" and find their general health Improving, their flesh and weight Increasing, or even keeping Its own, it is a sure sign tbat the cure is progressing. In these diseases the patient either gets better or worse the virus of the disease is not inactive; if not arrested and driven from the blood It will spread and continue to undermine the constitution. As soon as the KarsapariUlan makes the patient "feel better," every hour you will grow better, and Increase in health strength and flesh. OVARSAH TUfäGRS.
