Presidential Prospects.

Total U". Republican iiia.joiJty,

It will be seen that there are in the Republican column soma States whose political condiiion is very uncertain. Pennsylvania for instance, is just tilikely to go Democratic as Republican, ami so is Florida and Arkansas. Indiana on the contrary can be carried for the Republican party, by 10,0.J0 majority if properly managed. But here are four {States which are doubtful and a few votes may carry them either way, and hense the change of a few votes may determine who is to be the next President. If however we are to be further demoralized on the San Domingo question by its rapid auquisitiun, and mude almost powerless in the South by further ellorts at reconstruction and opposition to universal amnesty, we are in a very encouraging condition to be decently whipped in the coming battle. There never was a time, when the Republican party demanded as a condition of its future existence, the assistance of cool, common-sense, unselfish men, as now.

THE Legislature is actively at work to protect tne medical profession from quackery, on account of unread and unskilled men presuming to practice it. Tne law now being discussed, is a severe one, and if adopted will rule out of the "Doctor's ring," all who have not studied three years and received a. diploma from some medical school.

We expect this in all llgllt, hilt WOlll(i

it not be wise for our law-makers to apply some ol their care and attention to the legal profession. There is certainly as much quackery in this, as any oUier profession. Men presume to practice law, under the new constitution, who never read law, and if they had, could not understand it. They are constitutional lawyers, which means, can practice whether they know anything about tho law or not. They all know liow to collect fees, and seem to think this the lirst and only duty of a lawyer.

There is a proviso requiring iron in coils, less than three-sixteenths of an inch in diameter, to pay duty as wire, or from 2A to cents per pound and one or two othei smaIl modifications, but none of them important.

The licason Why.

Fortune seems entirely consistent in its treatment of the contending European belligerents. There appears to be no va

ippe:

riation. henever thers is a battle, the is invariable. The French r,alwavs

result retreat or surrender, and the always pursue.

Germans

Tnere never was another such a war in which, with so many armies, and so many battles, there was so unchanging around of successes on the one side, and defeat on tlu other. livery leader in every extended war known to history has had some defeats, however victorious he may have been in the end. Grant had his Belmont and Shiloh. Sherman had his Chickasaw bayou, and his assault at Kenesaw. Napoleon met with Moscow and Waterloo, ltrem.lined for the house of Ilol'cnzollern to inaugurate a war which, without being a popular one, without the merit of being a righteous ore, has fought a score of great bathes, and has lot been unsuccessful in one of them.

Are tho French pigmies? Are the Prussians giants? Is it to supernatural muses-that we must look for the explanation of a grand and unbroken series of successes, which have been won in a bad cause, in a foreign country, and under circumstances which have added immeasureably to the difficulties tobeovereome? No sophistry concerning the difference in Teutonic and Latin will explain it, for the reason that it is within the memory of living men. when the Latins had all Europe as prostrate jis Germany now has France. Nftr can the mere fact of education explain the result. It is pretty well demonstrated that a knowledge of Kent does not really add to one's hghting ability

The fact so tar

a* explicable,, is that

French "on the run" ae" hfh''f the war, and they have kept them "inning ever since. The Prussian

militarv

system has been shown to be the better one. That of France relied upon indi vidual gallantry and responsibility. That of Prussia overlooks the individual and relies upon masses. The French, at the very outset, were crushed by superior weight. The demoralization which resuited from the overwhelming defeats on the Riiine and at Sedau h?ts accompanied them ever since. In every battle since tiie disasters of Sedan, Sfrasbourg and Metz, theFrench have been half whipped before the firing of the hrst gun. When a man has severely tluashed an oppc*

lient in ^ix determined encounters, he will begin to have an easy time of it when he reaches the seventh, the eight, and subsequent set-tos.

Moreover, the erection of a republic divided France. A very large element of that country, and notably the fighting element, is imperial in its sympathies. It was the creation of the empire. It had everything to hope for from a monarchy, and much to fear from a successful republic. When Napoleon surrendered, the lighting material lost its energy. Jiuz line weakened in his adhesion to the new order of things, and fell an easy victim to the victorious Prussians. With tiie elimination of this fighting material, there has remained to Fiance only a class of men to whom war is frightful, who have always been accustomed to regard war as a business for the carrying on of which they supported a paid army, and who have no stomach for the dish which is offered them by the veteran Prussians.

In short, Franco lost at the outset through being unprepared for war, and from that time to the present has lost because there has been a division in the sentimeij of its population, and the lurcher reason that it nas had only raw rustics to oppose to the veteran and victorious legions of Prussia.—Chicago Times.

The Gloomy Prospect of Franco. The siege of Paris draws near its end. The city must soon capitulate, it is evident that the army within, with all its strength—its numbers are certainly between 500,000 and COO,000—cannot cutits way out it must be surrendered along with the capital. All the attempts of l'aladines, Chauzey, JJourbaki and Faidherbe to come to the relief of Paris have proved fruitless. The German armies, perfectly oiginized, thoroughly di.-eip-ined, and nmuoeuvered wiln extraordinary in eliigenee and skid, are too much for them all.

Wiien Paris is surrendered, the number of French soldiers held as prisoners in Germany will be more than fcliree-quar-,ers of a million. Tne expense of maintaining such a body of men is some-thing enormous, and for a time must subject the German comparers to considerable inconvenience but they will exact it all oack again from France at last.

Ttiis war, be^un toconquur the Rhenish provinces of Germany and annex them to France, has resulted in reducing the French nation to the rank of a second-rate power. It will take twentyrive years at least of wise' and economical administration to rtpair the damages France has already sintered and during this period her voice will have little weight in the affairs of other nations. But it is certain .hat the trace of her calamities will some time be atlaced. Thirty-five millions of industrious people, occupying a country whose importance nature her.-elf has guaranteed, cannot be kept down forever. France will again be rich and powerful and if for tne next quarter of century she saves the resources that for the last litty years she has so prodigally wasted upon standing armiea, and if she devotes a part of her surplus energies to popular education and tiie elevation of the masses of her people, she will then be far richer and far more powerful than ever.

But will the war stop with the surren»der of Paris? That is a question which only events can answer. If France is unable now to resist the movable armies of Germany while half a million of Germans are encampcd around Paris, how will she be able to resist after the surrender of that city has set free for active operations in the field the troops which are now engaged in the siege But it is not impossible that the French may still attempt to protract the war in defiance of all consideration of prudence. But how can they protract it with any hope of success? Their

condition ia certainly

the most desperate and the most unhappy that a great

nation WUB over obligeti

pass through. It is impossible to regard it without the deepest sympaihy and the tact that they themselves provoked the war, and that the whole nation went with Napoleon in declaring it, cannot check the wish of all thoughtful and impartial men that the current of success may yet chango in their favor. But while the wish remains, the recent defeats of their armies in the field must greatly depress, if they do not destroy, all hope in their behalf.—N. Y. Sim.

There is no doubt as to the eager desire of England to terminate this unhappy war, and we are equally bound to France and Germany. We

A Libel Suit.

The Brooklyn Union, under the heading "Our First Libel Kuit," says: The late Henry J. Raymond, who knew as well as any other man how to make alive newspaper, used to say that he was never satisfied with the Times unless there were two or three libel suits instituted against it. To reverse the aphorism of Mr. Jatnes Baggs, in the "Wandering Minstrel," he knew how little value there is, in a newspaper point of view, in peace and quietness. A faithful daily newspaper, which has a duty to the public to fulfil, cannot afford to consult the wishes of any individual cifizen, especially when he is also a public officer, in the course of our public duty we have round it necessary to comment on the palpable inefficiency of the musical

not

conscious of any proclivities either on one side or the other. Our strong desire to see the course of hostilities arrested is not founded*on any fear of consequences to ourselves it arises from the profound grief at the spectacle of the two most highly civilized races of Continental Europe literally tearing each other to pieces. The misery and loss accruing to both powers from a continuance of the war can never be balanced by any advantage that either*might hope to gain. We, wno are dispassionate spectators, make bold to say that we but express the opinion of all foreign and neutral nations, when we assert mat in the long run Germany can lever hope to subjugate France, nor Franae Germany. For a time the Fatherland m.iy have much the best of it, as France had a few years ago but so surely as time rolls on the wheel will turn round and round and the fortune of war be different. There is, doubtless, one way in which Prussia) could attain her apparent end, and that would be by wholesale extermination. If, however, the German statesmen and Generals have not made up their minds to go so far,

would do well to see

that present" magaminity is tneir more politic course. France can yet produce men by the million, who wi'il be trained into soldiers as the war goes on. Her monetary credit is practically unaffected. iSiie commands the seas, and the United States are her unfailing arsenal. What will those millions of armed ami desperate men turn their hands to next, if they are compelled for the moment to acquiesce in oppressive and humiliating terms of peace? We write it with the deepest sorrow, for we sympathise with both countries but, if such a peace be the issue of the pie-ent conflict generations oi Germany yet uuboni will rue the day when their forefathers drove a powerful and warlike people to despair. The plains of the Fatherland will be wet with blood in their turn,and Ibrygars to come we shall be afflicied with Cue spectacle of eighty millions of highly civilized people straining at each other's throats,and converting Europe into a theater of carnage and desolation.

IT is difficult to decide whether the "subsidy schemers" or the "land grabbers" are the more impudent beggars. Yesterday the latter asked for no fewer than 18,000,000 acres of the public domain, while a single bill for a steamship line appealed for subsidies to the amount ol $450,000 a year. We could better locate and house a very respectable population on these lands and with this amount of money.—_AT. Y. Tribune.

the Hair!

The Great Desideratum of the Age!

A dressing which is at once agreeable, healthy, and effectual for preserving tiie hair. Faded or gray hair is soon restored to its original color and the gloss and freshness of youth. Thin hair is thickened, falling hair checked, and baldness often, though not always, cured by its use. Nothing can restore the hair where the follicles are destroyed, or the glands atrophied or decayed. But such as remain can be saved for usefulness by this application. Instead of fouling the hair with a pasty sediment, it will keep it clean and vigorous. Its occasional use will prevent the hair from falling oft, and consequently prevent baldness. Free from those deleterious substances which make some preparations dangerous and injurious to the hair, the Vigor. Can only benefit but not harm it. If wanted merely for a

TIic past history of cur store, although marked almost weekly by some great surprise.o our customers, nevertheless does iiot puniish any parallel to theJExtraordiiiary Inducements with which we inaugurate the new year.

OUR NEW YEAR'S GREETING!

As we glance back over (lie work accomplished in seven short months, we are

sure our customers will not wonder afc our feeling a little elated at our unusual,

but not to us, unexpected success. Our first visit to Terre Haute convinced us tha*t

here, of all the cities in this State, was most needed a reform in the various system

upon which the Dry Goods business was being conducted. The motto of this sys

tem was, "Securc the very largest profit possible on every dollar's worth of good-

sold." We believed a change was needed and that the people would generously

support any firm who, disregarding the machinations of the old high-priced stores,

would dare to write over their doors this opposite motto, "Sell every dollar's worth

of goods at the smallest possible profit consistent with safe business principles." In

pursuance ofthis idea we marked out our.course and have pursued it without fear

or favor. We expected opposition, for we had been informed of the plans laid for

is it re W a re re at is os it on a he

form of personal violence, so when the high-priced stores took this way to bolster

up their falling fortunes, we were hardly disappointed.

Our Success lias been Unparalleled!

At one bound our Store took its position at the head of the Dry Goods Trade of

Teri'e Haute. We had not mistaken popular sentiment. Congratulatory and en

couraging messages and words came to us from every quarter, one and all bidding

us go forward and never for a moment to doubt the earnest sympathy and hearty
