In last Monday's iam of the Commercial, we are advised that, "Richmond ia yet excit
ed and in a war-like atate," dc that Mayor
Bennett ia charged with all the crimea known
in the catalogue, and that hia admitted offense waa that of "patting a head-on" a loafer who
seemed to be "solicitous) to have aomething of
the kind done." We would say to Prince
. Hal, not quite lo fast, neighbor. Unpretend
ing afl hi er little rnral Tillage, we would
wggeet that it hu rights which even a re
spectable 'metropolitan' paper ahonld respect
We beg to auure 'Prince Hal', that Rich

tain tope that he haa not been charged with treason, stratagem or apoila and finally he baa net been anipieioned of robbery, arson, orttardsr. Of all these malefactions, bis honor atands unattested. For many, many months past, as is well known to maay or oar eitisens, our city has been saaadalised by our Chief Magistrate in- , balipf too freely of "liquid damnation" and that white uader its influence be haa been , given too aanob to a miscellaneous 'exchange f obeerrationa round town.' All the city papers were singularly lenient and lorbear- ' inf. to his erratic course, aa it waa thought beat not to raise a noise hia term of office being near its elose; but becoming bold sad i defiant by the license accorded him, and un- ' grateful for the forbearance ahown hitn, be gets up a mill on bis private account, and puts a head on Mr. Case, not quite Prince Hal as yan are trying to persuade j curse! f.

still feel grateful to them lor their kindness

No, no, Mr. Ma ror, you will have to drop that ' silly stuff, as one of our "motives," and come rr to the real and only one that impelled us , to speak as we have done ot your extra-official conduct, and that 1s a sense or duty aa a public journalist, which is regarded by us as paramount to any personal friend- . ship or respect we may have for an individual . That is our j csition, precisely. Colfax for Grant's He-Election.
FROM WASIIINGTOX.
Having gone to hia brother about getting funds to defray bia expenata to Washington,
or, as ia his well considered Whangdoodle' speech before the Council, be says, on hia way to the depot to telegraph to hia wife albeit there are two offices up town he became ' satiafied that a woman waa In distress, and needed relief from soma freebooter. Like a Valorous Don Quixotte, aa be ia, ever ready to
attack windmills, he ruihea to the rescue! , The wayfarer, Mr. Case, passing along s rear street, seeing something in the shape of
man going in at the front of the house, stopped to aee what such haste meant,utlerly nnconscious that it was the noble Major. t Sow, Mr. Caae is a Doorman a B. R. Engineer only a poor mechanic, and is a good : subject for an "exchange of observations," , yon know, Prince Hsl. Well, the Major
rushes in the house in a few minutes emerges through the back-door into the rear street ' and finding onr "loafer." accosts him thusly. "Hoi yon scoundrel, villain, what are you doing beret" Case.

Personally, we are not so much tribulated about them, a a we are concerned for the good name of onr city, which haa been disgraced, humiliated, ia the person of ita shameless Chiel Magistrate, and we choose to say so. The Mayor nay be "proud of some peraon'a friendship, and other a may be proud of bis.

And then our mo fere are to be called in question, are they t Well, in brass and impudence, for a small man, the Mayor haa more than bis share. We are disposed to be aa

Is it not a striking fact that, out of all our forty millions of people, no critic has been found, of any party, who has attempted to antagonize a single one of these nine points embodied in tho President's platform? His faith that Gen. Grant will
again lead the Republican party to victory in 1872 is thus emphatically expressed: ' , With such a record, and on the platform already written by tho President's hand, with whatever additions the intervening two years cay piove essentil to the national weal.. General Grant (with some one of the many prominent Repub
licans. East or South, whom all
confide in and will delight to honor, associated wi;h him) will, I sincere
ly -believe, lead, the Republican
phalanx, as he has so otten led those under his banner, to aBignal
' and ansDicious victory. ' And it
will bo victory that will give stab
ility and rest to the country, by
ending forever, as it will, all hopes
of a Democratic reaction against

Washington, D. C, i Jahdakt 21st, 1871. ) sditob palladium: .1 :-....-..::,, The Congressional Furnace is now in full blast, hills and measures of long standing and short, are being harrowed up and considered in Committee and in the Leg
ist tive Halls. New bills are being
introduced, and the Members of
the third House are hardly taking
time to breathe trvins to further
tneir respective bills to the detri
ment of their neighbors. M. Cs
are beseiged at all times, and a Con
gres6man who presumes upon the
good nature of those roving and
rambling Third House fellows by
retiring before the small hours of
the night, is peremptorilly cash-
ierd by the offended, and is con sidered a "fonrth-raier." The em
bodiment of a popular Consrreas
CP
man is pnncipaUy suavitt. An
unwelcome visitor by him i9 treated
with nearly the same consideration
aa a welcome cne and I might note here that so few are welcome
during the stormy portion ot Congressional season that the except
ion to the rule "none are welcome '' would be very few. Oh, oh, oh,!
If your dear readers only kaew the responsibility, the cares, trials and
tribulations of your Representatives in Congress, you would rather pity then envy their situation. Tho bill to provide a government for the District of Columbia was called up and after some amendments was passed by 97 to 58. One features of the bill is open to great objection, and that is tbe appointment of nearly all of the Officers instead of electing them by the people. The people-here are
very much chagrined to think that they are still under the absolute
control of Congress. Those who ! are large property owners however, are a little consoled to know that the change to a territorial form will effect a reduction of their taxes nearly one half, and thereby
tend to increase the valuation of
real estate. '
The President evinced such a
spirit of fairness in tho appointment of the San Domingo Commis
sion, that he has completily disarm ed all of his slanderers iu this cjty in relation to this subject. He seems to have soucLtfor. Che
particular friends of the opponents
of the measure, and 6o completely
is it devoid of suspicion, as a "put
up tnmg on the part of the Pres
ident, that it is stated by one of the Secretaries, that the gentlemen compossing the commission had
never met each other before they were appointed. The commission sailed without any instructions from the President further than to probe the subject to the bottom. The President's action in the premises has done much to con' vince the opponents of annexation, that he must have acted on better information that tby seemed to have possessed.

Fat of Paris.
It Is difficult to -see what Paris
will gain by holding out. The condition of the capital mnst'now be dreadful. It may easily become horrible. What if despair should be succeeded by general - demoralization and by the terrorism oi the mob? Humanity may well implore heaven to avert such a calamity and to direct Paris to an honorable capitulation. . i .. But will the capitulation of Paris end the war? ' Some say not. Some of the soberest citizens of the provinces advocate resistance to the
uttermost a disputing of the country inch by inch with the Germans, until the latter are wearied out.
Those who speak in this way are
intense Republicans, who see in
submission to tho Germans the
downfall of the Republic, and who
regard the ruin of the country as
preferable to the loss of power by
their party.
Yet Paris, I take it, will as usual
lead France. Tbe provinces may
make a show of resistance but it
can not last. S Probably the Germans will not be compelled, to re
duce tbe provinces by military op
erations; easier methods may be discovered. Suppose, for example,
that tbe Germans being in possession of Paris and the provinces continuing refractory. Count Bis
marck should make proclamation
giving to France the option of at 1
once electing a constituent Assembly, which might treat for peace, and undertake the government of tbe country, or, declining this, go under thejyoke of Napoleon again. It would not be difficult to replace the Emperor on tbe throne, give to him the captured armies in Germany and put him in a condition to maintain himself.. Even-the threat of doing this might be sufficient to bring tbe Republicans of the provinces to terms especially
when the majority of the people of
the provinces are friendly to the Empire rather than the Republic. --Correspondence Cin. Times.
the San Domingo affair or something else made him unmindful
that his supplimental civil rights
bill was called up on the 7th of July last, and indefinitely post
poned. When Mr. . Sumner; on
presenting a memorial of the Col-
bred National ' Labor Convention yesterday asking its immediate
consideration, found that he must
have been .slumbering when the
bill was reported and postponed, was quite indignant and remarked
it must have been reported in a
very quiet manner. Air. b. at
once introduced the bill anew and
had it referred to the Committee
on judiciary. The bill, , a very important one, as it provides that the colored man j shall have equal rights in the cars, steamboats, hotels, schools and other public places, and further provides, that in a violation of the provisions of the bill, heavy penalties are to be inflicted upon the offender. The Senate Committee to which was referred the nomination of Willis Drummond to be Commissioner of the General Land Office, agreed to-day, to report favorable on the nomination. This is equivalent, of course, to a confirmation and tbe ousting of the present incumbent, Wilson, who has lived on Government pap nearly bis whole life. Wilson is both very
ambitious and dictatorial, and the idea that he is at once to be disrobed of his power over man and left alone to shirk for himself, is most terrible with him. He claims that on account of his long service and experience in the Land Office alone ia sufficient reason why the Government should retain him in office. He also claims to be poor, and needs the Office for the sup port of his family.' ' This caused an investigation into the affair, and he is found to have property in

An Old Seige of Paris. From the Xtw York Democrat. The capture of Paris by mtacs of starvation, if the Prussians had been ecntent to rely upon that alone, would be no new feature ia histor3-. De Tbou in his history, in speaking of the time when Heury IV. besieged the city, says: The consternation of the city had become extreme. The want ol the necessaries of life had so weaken
ed, not cnlj the inhabitants, but even the auxiliary troops, that they
were no longer able to defend
themselves. People no longer
knew in Paris what meat was, and
the army could now nourish itself only with leaves and roots. In the
open plaz-t's and at the street corn
ers great kettles stood, in which
grit, the only remaining article of
food, was boiled.
The most dreadful diseases
Drose out. in turee montns more than 12,000 deaths occcrred. The
streets resonuded again with the t'eath-rattles of dying and the
plaints of the starving. Bread had entirely disappeared. All the dogs were caught and eaten, especially
by the Gern'acs, who were usually placed aa guaids at the gates, and
were a naturlly barbarous people
I'arents drowned taeir children
and finally, in accordance wilh the
advice of the Spanish Ambassador,
bread was made of tbe ground
skuls and bones of the dead; but
this they were soon compelled td give up, since those who ate therof died miserably.
The War in Europe. 'The same old story as told before," will still ppply t the con, test being waged between Prussia and France. : The French army of the Loire is still retreating in a demoralized condition, and it is very doubtful whether it will ever again be able to offer any serious resistance to the victorious legions of Prince Frederick Charles. Another sortie from the city of Paris had been attempted by Gen. Trochu, but which resulted in fail tire, and serious losses in killed, wounded and prisoners. The bombardment of the city had been vigorously maintained by the Prussians during the week, resulting in great damage to property and considerable loss of life. At last ac counts, the firing had ceased on both sides, and there were rumors that negotiations had been opened looking to a -settlement and peace. The French array of the North had also been routed and driven
into one of the forts, with a loss 6f

DISEASES OF THE HEART AND LUNGS.
The boiler of a portable sawmill in Rush county, about three miles northwest of Rushville, exploded on the 18th, instantly killing E. E. Starbuck, Calvin Bufkin and John Robinson. The latter was examining the mill with a view to purchasing it. The cause of the explosion is unknown. Jesse Lilpop, a pedler, was attacked near Corydon, on Tuesday
night, by some person who made two or three thrusts through his
wagon cover with a knife, cutting
through bis coat, pantaloons and
underclothing, and barely marking the skin on one of his hips. The
drawing of a revolver promply dis persed the enemy."

Of all diseases that flesh is heir to, none are so certain to produce death as those of tbe Eeart and Lungs. Persons sufiering from diseases of the Heart are liable to drop down dead ot any moment, unaware of any more than usual difficulty of breathing, or fatigue. How often do we hear of some friend or acquaintance dying while sitting at bis or her meal, or found dead in bed; atd
still more frequently do we hear that such a one had onlv ?liebt fluttering at tbe heart;
others drop dead while performing some light labor, or with the least excitement; while the
invalid suffering from diseases of the Lungs, is slowly but surely dying by inches, without
some mdicioub treatment to am nature to
throw off diseases from the Lungs. To easily
cure the above diseases, nrst requires 101
mediate attention to every symptom that may present itself, at the different stages ot the disease: and the treatment should be in ac-
coi dance with each symptom. Thousands Buffer untold misery from resorting to unqualified pretenders of the age, who profess
to understand the treatment of diseases of the Heart and Lnncs. but who in reality know
but little of the diseases, except a slight knowledge that they have acquired by read
ing the suggestions ot some conceited author,
whose experience in too many instances nas
been but meagre at best; many ot whom have perhaps never disected the Heart or Lungs
after death. In order to be a successful
pi actitioner in the treatment of Heart and
Lune diseases, requires a constant, extensive
practice, to enable the person to make a correct diagnosis of tbe disease. This done, he must be well posted in its treatment, since
this can- only be accomplished by treating
many thousand similar cases. Thousands of lives are annually sacrificed by the employ
ment of unskilled physicians, in tbe treat
ment of diseases of tbe a eart and Lnngs.
How often do we see and hear of persons
almost gone with Consumption in fact, giv
en up, by perbaps, a dozen doctors: woo, ul
timately. by placing themselves under the
treatment of some eminent physician, be
come healthy and sound, or at all events, aa much so aa the nature of their disease could
possibly admit of. Instances of this kind
are familiar to thousands. A consumptive man of means who thinks more of his health
than be does of his money, eeldem loses an
opportunity of consultibg a physician who has attained a high leputation in tbe treat
ment of that particular class of diseases in
which be is most interested, nence it is
few of this class, compariiirely speaking, die
for want judicious treatment; at least .their life is prolonged in their cases for many
years. While on the other hand a man of
narrow contracted mind who is conceited
withal, thinks that Lis family or home phy
sician, of a particular creed, is fully capable to perform the desired results. Thus he pla
ces himself under the care ot an experimenter, losing time and health, until finally too
late tor any human aid; continuing to sink
under the treatment of cod-liver oil and stimulants, till at last be shufles off this martal coil And for whatT Just for want ol manly . independence; a free heart; a free

Remarkable Case of Catarrh of
Years' Standing Cured. With pleasure 1 1 can recommend Dr. Bort to those afflicted, as 1
I have been a great sufferer with disease
called Catarrh for many years, and for three
montns previous to applying to Dr. Uort, 1
could not sleep at night, I was so much dis
tressed. As soon as 1 commenced treatment
with Dr. Bort, I began improving, and at this
time I leel entirely tree from tbe disease. J
have, previous to applying to Dr. Jiori, endeavored to obtain relief from every known
source. 1 hose afflicted in these ways would
do well to consult Dr. Bort at once. I

Healing Power of Eclecticism. i
Dtmonttrated on over TStelveeThoKtand Invalidt,
by Dr. Bort, of JV. Y. There is a healing
power among us; a pnysirinn who has cured 71 a r .1 .11
loousanas in wis cny, alter an - inner sys
tems have been exhausted; a physician who
is curing, and turtber pledging bimseit to
core, nearly all oases have baffled the skill of
hundreds of medical men in all past ages and even bids defiance to all modern practice:
and lastly there is a physician who can produce thousands of certificates from some of
the most reliable individuals in the city, aa
well as elsewhere, who have been positively
and permanently cured after all other treat
mentafter tbe most eminent medical men had failed! Yea, verily, and that physician is Dr. Bort, whose infirmary ia located on the corner of Third ft Tine sts.. St. Louis-
Dr. Bort, we verily believe, has cured more chronic cases in the past four months, in St.
Louis than all the medical iren who have ev
er practiced their professions here for those
diseases, tie makes as specialities, vie utaeases of the Eye. Ear. Lanes. Throat and Ca
tarrh . 1 his assertion may look like boasting, but nevertheless, it is true; and if yon doubt it, consult a few of the persons whose certificates in full synopsis are to be found in the columns of this paper for the good of hu
manity. St. Loui Dailf JDitpatek, Augwit 12, 1865.
