An Honest Administration.

Tim Tig* %*h* which (Ulnni'islrs tkm la purahing the invosl<ff*tlona into the frauds KM peculations ot Collector Bailey, of Now Yorkjia additional evi rience of the stet that the jiledgw of the nnrtr in twapeet to lrnneaty and reform In the conduct of national affair* are Ming faithfully, honorably and emphatically carried out. When General Grant was inaugurated President, corruption was the rule, hot only the ettScptiou, In tbo different depart ments and bureaus of the government. The moat thoughtful men of tho country had for months well nigh despaired of the republic; the most inudl'gent friends of freedom and America in the Old World had feared that, though we had success fully met and put down a gigantic rebel Hon, the ahip of state, rotten as it up neared to be, might founder in a calm This despair and this fear were not the mere creatures of imagination, of of the croaking spirit. The integrity of the body politic was not doubted. The sacrifices the people had just made, the noble patriotism the men and,women of the land had justWiown in ten thousand ways, were proof positive as to the elevated spirit and true nobility ot the body politic at large. But the greatness and honor of the people were in marked contrast with the littleness aud corruption of the office-folding set. The nation was glorious; the government was a burning shame. Every candid person must agree that we do not exaggerate the ills of government which prevailed duriilt the closiig months of Andrew Johnson sadmiiuitra tion. Prom the Executive Mansion to the post-offices at cross roads there was fawning, there was peculation —fraud, bribery, stealing, corruption reeking everywhere. The raids ou tho Treasury were perpetual, but this was not the worst phase of the gloomy situation. Uornip lion was honored. Notoriously corrupt wothen distributed the offices or the government aud the bribes of the fortunate, in broad day light, and men of reputation, so far from scorning the lascivious favor ites of the Chief Executive, did what they could to give them power and honors. The most corrupt “ rings" we re politically omnipotent. They contro led every branch of government. Their ramifications extended all over the country, anil their effect in demoralising politics was great, and most unfortunately becoming greater. It is not to be doubted that the government could not have endured the ills of the era of which we speak a year longer. It would have fallen to pieces of its own correlation. How different tho situation to-day There are those who dispute the statesmanshift of President Grant, but these are not among the most thoughtful men of the errantry. There arc those who complain over the distribution of the public patronage, but these are mostly those who have a personal grievance and a biased judgment. The Integrity of the President is beyond dispute except by those wbo would dispute against the sun. Every charge of want of integrity against him has fallen to the grouud. The shrewdest men or Wall street we c* interested in defining hire. The most rigid scrutiny jus tides him, and leaves them little if any better than ielons in the. popular belief. And this well-grounded confidence in the President’s honesty is not only worth millions to the people of the country in the prevention of stealings, but it is worth •ven more in the trust in free institutions that it restores to the minds of thoughtful men everywhere. If we think about what it has done, is doing, and will surely do in the future, we cannot help concluding that the unquestionable integrity of President Grant is of no less value to the country now than was his surpassing military genius, through whose comprehensive plans and tenacious and sublime pluck, the great rebellion went to pieces, and the republic was saved.— Chicago Putt, March 22.

The Republican Party.

Those who have been fearful that possibly there might be some truth in the Copperhead pretense that the Republican party is on the decline and destined to an early downfall, will find a study of the recent exciting contest in New Hampshire, ■with its favorable result, a profitable source of encouragement. Notwithstanding the triple alliance of the democracy, and the so-called Labor Reformers anil Temperance men, In opposition to the Republican ticket, the Republicans have carried the State officers by a larger majority than could have been reasonably expected, and a goodly majority in the Legislature. Governor Stearns’ majority for re-elec-tion is not less than 1,300, and the Republican majority in the Legislature, which will have to cfect a United States Senator, is not less than fifty. It was as hard fought a political battle as has ever been waged in tbe State, aud the result surprises the Republicans themselves, who, with a three-sided opposition to contend with, by no means felt confident of victory. i his only demonstrates that the people, not only of New Hampshire, but of the whole country, continue to have confidence in the organization and principles of the party which has rescued the Government from the hands of the nation's enemies, and saved the Republic from the peril of dissolution and destruction at the hands of that Slave Power, w T bich was the strength of the Democrats party while it had any strength to boast of. The Republican party has steadily adhered to and faithfully carried out its principles and never-departed therefrom, in the Executive office nor in , Congress, from the very first day that the 4 administration of the government hagbeen confined to its representatives. This being a fact, and the recklessness and untrustworthiness of the “Democracy” hav ing become proverbial, the patriotism and intelligence of the people are a sufficient guarantee that Republican ascendency will be maintained. The contest now is, and hereafter always will be, as beretofore jt always has been, between the rotten, treacherous and dangerous Democratic party on the one han', and patriotism, the intelligence and the virtuous and progressive elements of the country, on the other. Tuesday’s result in New, Hampshire has proved that most of the people understand this, and tliat not even the seductive cries of “ labor reform” and temperance” can mislead a sufficient Dumber of Republicans into a pursuit of ignoi-ftlui to throw power into Democratic hands. The triumph in New Hampshire is merely an example of how similar contests would at this time result in other States. The good old Republican party of freedom, justice, and the national integrity, which has in the past won so many a glorious victory for progress, right and the national well-being, has as strong a hold upon the confidence of the people, and is as vigorous and powerful, to-day.asat any previous day or year of its existence. This being bo, the country, with its peace and its great interests, is entirely safe for years to come.— G)dcaffo> Journal , March 10. A Convenient Loss or Memory.—A gentleman who was very zealous on the subject of horses, but not according to knowledge, bought a mare at auction and rode her home. “ Well, C®sar,” said he to his sable coachman, “ what do you think of her! Bbe cost me five hundred dollars.” “Dunno, master.” “Yes, but what do you think!” “ Well, iMrfga, it* makes me tink of what the preacher said yesterday—something about bis money is soon parted. / ditremember defu»i parti”

The Fifteenth Amendment.

Tiui formal proclamation of the fact tb*t the Fifteenth Amendment has been adopted has not yet been Issued, but on the Isth Ot March the President addressed the following messago to the Senate: “ I transmit a report from the Secretary of Slate in answer to a resolution, of the Senate of the 3d instant asking to bo informed what Stall's have ratified the Fif; teenth Amendment to tho Constitution of the United Stales, sa far as official notice thereof lias been transmitted to the Department of State, and that information from time to time may ho communicated to that body as soon as practicable of such ratification hereafter by any Slate:’’ The communication from- Secretary Fish, to which relcrcnco is here made, gives the following States as having ratified the amendment: “North Carolina, West Virginia, Massachusetts, Wisconsin, Maine, Louisiana, Michigan, Soufijj Carolina, Pennsylvania, Arkansas, Connecticut, Florida, Illinois, Indiana, New York, New Hampshire, Nevada, Vermont, Virginia, Texas, Alabama, Missouri, Mississippi, <Hdo,Georgia, lowa, Kansas. Minnesota, It hodo Island and Nebraska.’’ This settles the question of the power of New York to withdraw its ralftcaliun. The official decision is that the assumption of the Democratic Legislature is illegal and void. —Chicago Journal. March 21.

An Auspicious Omen.

Wuf.n President Grant .took the oath of cilice, at bis Inauguration, he held the open Bible in his hand, and at the moment be was sworn lie touched his lips to the 121st Psalm. The Bible was presented to Mrs Graut on the following day by Chief-Justice Chase, accompanied by the following letter: Washington, March, 5, 1H0!I. Dear Madam: My friend, Col. Parsons. the Marshal of the Supreme Court. will place in your hands the Bible on which your honored husband look the oath of office yesterday. His lips pressed the 121st I’jsafin. The book will, I am sure, be to you a precious memorial of an auspicious day:' destined, I hope, to be ever associated in American remembrance with the perfeeled restoration of peace and with the renewal- and increase of prosperity throughout the country. ” With earnest desires that the aspirations of tlie Psalmist may be fulfilled to you, to him, and to our whole people, I remain, very faithfully, yours, 8.

USEFUL AND SUGGESTIVE.

Never be ashamed k> do a kind action to any one under any cirettnistandes. No person ever got stung by. hornets who kept away from where they were. It is so with bud habits. Thu Kim-ilionul Gazette says that celery, used daily as a salad, will cure nervousness. It is also good, says the same authority, for palpitation of the heart. A co it respondent of the Country Gentleman advises, in the case of a broken horn on a cow, that it be left alone and thought nothing of, and says it will get well by this treatment. The eggs of the currant worm and borer are generally deposited in and around the old stalks and dead branches ofthe currant bush. These should be all cut away and burned early in the season. Would you be exempt from uneasiness, do nothing you know or suspect to be wrong ; and ii you want to enjoy the purest pleasure, do everything in your power that you are convinced is right. A hood man and a wise man may at times be angry with the world, at times grieved for if; but be sure no man was ever discontented with the world who did his duty in it. Tarts.—Lemon lmtter is excellent for tarts. It is made as followst One pound ot pulverized white sugar, whites of six eggs ami yolks of two, three lemons, including grated rind and juice. Cook twenty minutes over a slow lire, stirring all the while. Tea Biscuit. —Six potatoes boiled and ‘grated in half a milk-pan of flour. One tablespoon of salt, three tumblers of milk, two ounces of butter, warmed in the milk, one cup of yeast. Beat the whites ot three eggs to a froth, and put in before kneading. Mix not quite as stiff as breaddough, and put to rise. Iron rust is removed by salt mixed with lemon juice.' Mildew, by dipping in sour buttermilk and layitfg in the sun. Ink stains may be sometimes taken out by smearing with hot tallow, left on when Ihs stained article goes to the wash. Freezing will take out old fruit stains, and scalding with boiling water will remove those that have never been through the wash. —The liuritl Register gives the following method of breaking the habit of kicking in milch cows: “ Have a good short whip, and at the first kick give one sujart blow; commence milking again and strike once, hard, immediately after each kick. The theory is that by this process tho cow soon learns to connect the effect with the cause, and to avoid-tho former by quitting the latter.” Old ribbons will look quite renewed if washed in cool 6ud3 made of fine soap and ironed when damp. the ribbon with a cleuu cloth and pass the’ iron over that. If you wish to stiffen the ribbon, dip it, while drying, into gumarabic water. White silk gloves wash well, and should be dried on the hands. Never dampen bonnet ribbon and iron it wet—it makes it stiff as horn.— Rural Register. A. material which can be pressed into the form of combs, buttons, knife handles, Ac., may be made from leather scraps by cutting them into small pieces and keeping them for several days in chloride of sulphur; in this way they become hard and brittle. After being washed they are dried, ground to powder and mixed with glue, or a solution of gum arabic, or any other adhesive substance, when the mixture is ready lor the moulds. — Exchange. M. Ziurek calls attention, iff Dingier'* Polytechnic Journal , to the fact that water, kept in small reservoirs made of zinc, or collected from roofs covered with zinc, is invariably contaminated with that metal, and that the use of such water for domestic purposes is highly injurious to health. The author recommends that where zinc vessels are used for the purpose indicated, they should be painted over with asphalt varnish or any iron pigment. Saltish Hat.—A correspond cut *of Hearth and Home says : “ Never salt your hay at, all. How would you like to btf -forced to eat so much salt -with your food, or starve? This is what you ask your cows to do when you Salt their hay. Sly experience is: All animals du best when they have free access to salt. Keep a box iu some dry place in yard or shed, where stock can take what salt tfiey need as regularly as they take their water. Keep the box supplied with salt,, and cattle will never eat- more than is good for them.” Stuffed Eflos.—Halve ten hard-boiled eggs lengthwise; take .out the yolks, pound them in a inortar ; add to them some broad crumbs snuke i in-milk, and a quarter of a pound of fresh butter; pound al l together; add a Tittle Chopped onion aud parsley, some bruised pepper, and grated,nufmeg; mix it with the yolks of

A 1 ohRKSroNDRNT of the Country Gentleman says: “J have invented a-process to rechrcu thevlraft of mowing machines one third. It is done thus: Take oil'the seat and leave it at the-barfi, ami walk behind your mowing machine. It requires. a little more care to watch forstumps, <fcc., hut it pays well in the better" condition of one’s horses. The traction of a low-wheeled heavy machine, obstructed by wet grass and keeping up the motion of the knives, is vastly increased by putting on to it an additional weight of 1.70 to 200 pounds. I air. sorry to say the idea cannot be applied to. reapers, where the treadle is needed to be kept in constant use.” Preserving Hyacinth Bulks.— Those of our readers who huVe l>etin_ growing hyacinths in pots in Lite house", will find that by followingthe subjoined directions, they can use their bulbs for forcing again next autumn. Bulbs grown in glasses over water, lioWever, may be thrown away, as they are past renovation : “As soon as the flower* wither, take the bulb out of the earth in which it has blnomtd, wash it and the rodts clean, and lay It on the lid of a hamper, or on clean straw, in an airy; shaded, but dry place. Turn the bulb frequently, and when tho roots and leaves. Ac., have dried up, trim them off, remove loose scales and ripe offsets, and when the bulb is perfectly dry, lay it bv in a drawer, closet or basket until the fol lowing autumn. By this method the exhaustion of the bulb, after flowering, is saved.”— Hearth and Home. A writer In an exchange papef advocates planting an occasional hill in every corn field late, or taking pains to replant the missing hills, and gives the following reason for it: If the weather becomes dry during the filling time, the silk and tassel both become dry and dead. In this condition, if it should become seasonable, the silk revives and renews its growth, but the tassel docs hot recover. Then, for want of pollen, the new silk is unable to fill the office for which it was designed. The pollen irom the replanted corn is then ready to supply the silk, and the filling, is completed, lie says nearly all the abortive ears, so common in all corn crops, is caused by want of pollen, and that lie has known ears to double their size in this second filling.

Joke on Barnum.

Quietly passed from earth last week, at his residence in this city, one Pat Muffin. Though possessed of many virtues, Muffin was chiefly dear to fame as the man whom Barnum paid for his “ turnout Tom ITig- - ginson’s barber shop under the Park Hotel. The story is well known, but it. should lie repeated once more in honor of the (lend and in justice to the living. One day, a few years ago, Barnum rushed iuto Iligginson’M shop for a shave and found Pat Muffin, the deceased, just taking liis scat for the same operation. Barnum at once proposed to Pat to exchange turns, offering to pay Pat's Bill. Pat, with tho quick wit of an Irishman, assented. Barnum got his shave, told Higginson to charge Pat’s bill to him, and went on his way rejoicing. 'VYlicn Pat’s turn came he deliberately proceeded to take a bath, a shave and a “ shampoo,” and -wound up by having his hair curled and his whiskers dyed. When all was done he politely told Iligginson to “ Charge it to the boss,” and departed. Barnum afterward paid the hill, and thought the joke was worth the money, —New York Globe. —A German clock dealer sold a small clock to an Irishwoman, but he had scarcely left the house when she turned it bottom upward, and a wire dropped-from its position, causing the clock to strike without intermission. Thereupon she ran after him, complaining in trouble, “ Sure, an’it’s cryin’ afther ye already.” The Printers’ Typographical Union, of Philadelphia, has admitted to membership a lady now engaged in study for a profession in that city, and who supports herself by doing compositor’s work in her spare time.

The Chicago Tribune reports a large invoice of watches having Chinese inscriptions upon tire dials and plates, shipped by them to Chinese merchants in San Francisco, to lie forwarded totheCclcstial Kingdom. American Clocks have for some years been an article of demand in .the Chinn trade, and thousands of them have been exported to that country. It is probable that a large business will also be created in Watches, and we are glad that the Elgin goods have secured an introduction. We can safely say, with reference; to them, that, we arc giving our Chinese friends the best we have. If you have a discharge from the nose, offensive or otherwise, partial loss of the sense of smell, taste or hearing, eyttswatering or weak, feel dull and stupid or debilitated, pain or pressure in the head, take cold easily, you may be sure you have the Catarrh. Thousands annually, without manifesting half of the above symptoms, terminate in consumption and end in the grave. No disease is so commony more deceptive or less understood by physicians. I)r. 11. V. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y., is the proprietor of Dr. Sauk’s Catarrh Remedy—a jterfect npccijic for Catarrh, “ Cold in the Head,” or Catarrhal Headache, which he sends to any address by mail on receipt of sixty cents. Sold "by most Druggists everywhere. — m . w. In numbers there is safety. It was upon this principle that the formula of Juiwon’b Mountain llekb Fills was prepared. Dr. Judson, intending to spend a fortune in advertising his pills, submitted his recipe to the revision of the most intelligent and learned physicians of the age, and the result is a simple but most efficacious medicine —the Judson’s Mountain llekb I’ills. They purify the blood, remove all obstructions, cleanse the skin of all pimples and blotehes, and are perfectly sure and sale in their operation. The Jud-.. son’s Mountain llekb Pills cure Biliousness, Female irregularities. Headache and many of the diseases arising from impure blood and a deranged digestion. Use the Judson’s Mountain Herb Pills, and when yon have proved their virtno recommend them to your friends. They are both sugar-coated and plain.

Throat Affections and Hoarseness. —All suffering from Irritation of the Throat and If oar tenets will be agreeably surprised at the almost immediate relief afforded by the use of “Broion's Bronchial Trochee."

Shaking and Burning.

It is not necossary to journey from the tropics to Alaska.in order to experience the extremes of heat and cold. Thonsands undergo all the inconveniences of this thcrmometrical change every day or every other day, as the case may he, without the trouble of moving over the threshold. A word with these involuntary shaker*. What are they doing to expedite their return to a medium tern perature f—to break the chills and banish the lever! Are they dosing themselves with quinine, thereby imperiling the soundness of their bones and impairing the vigor of their brains and nervous system I Borne of them are, no donbt, but not the majofliy of them, it is believed. The value of Iloetetter's Stomach Bitters as a harmless and certain specific Tor fever and ague is understood and appreciated in all parts of the conntry where intermittents prevail. The residjuits of such localities begin to take it early iti, the spring as a protection against miasma by which they are sur rounded; not all of them, perhaps, for a blind adherbnee to error is the specialty to some people, but the greater number. If there is any flxod fact in the therapeutics, it is this: that tho Bitters are a far better safeguard against all the varieties of periodic maladies produced by unwholesome exhalations twin any drug or compound in the materia meriica Of the profession. This assertion is made with ail due respect to the faculty but being an important trnth, and one that nearly concerns the health of lame settlements in various parts of the country, and indeed of the public at large, it is made fearlessly. Founded on ample and unimpeachable testimony, it defies disproval. To break up chills and ievtfrs, as well as to prevent them, there is nothing so reliable as this wholesome vegetable restorative.
