Both in this country and in Eoglan 0 there has been a very large decline in th ▼alue of products for consum])tion since 1801.

The above prices are taken at the datent Nov. 19 in euch ol tho throe years named. In 1859 gold and paper mouey (all bank notes) wereou a par with each other. In 1864 gold touched 235, the the highest point reached during our late war, aud inflation was then rampant. Ac the present time gold ia UlJalllJ.

Butin almost all articles there is a decline In prices abroad. Scotch pig iron, for instance, is 62s. 6d. per ton, against 110s. 6J. In October 's. 27s. against 38=.; wheat, 44s.

Led by the in domitable Mrs. Grçdy Stanton, they stumped tho State* with vigor and car ried their ivppeal into every household.— The rcturps of the vote on the woman suffrage amendment to the Constitution foot up : For suffrage 36,000 against Huff rage, 126,000. Tho strong-minded are in a minority, therefore, of 90,000. It is evi dent that among the many things that the recent elections smashed, female vot ing was one, and that it will have to be laid away with the third term, sumptu ary legislation, Bon Butler, and other dead, dead things.— World. VENTILATION. In nearly aU small dwelling houses ventilation is allowed to take care of it self, and while the occupants are not confined to one apartment, but move from one room to another, the circula tion of air, caused by the opening of doors, is sufficient to keep up a supply of fresh air. During sickness, however, ana at nights, thero is nothing left but a choice between foul air and a dangerous draught. A recent author suggests a method of avoiding- both. A piece of wood, three inches high and exactly as long as tho breadth of the window, is to be pre pared. When ventilation is required raise the sash, put tho strip of wood on the sill and draw the sash down closely upon it. If the window is well fitted there will be no draught at tho lower pait of bhc sash, but between tho upper bar and the lower bar of the other sash there will bo an opening through which a perpendicular current of air may enter or pass out of the room, hut not he felt draught such as would be created by simply raising or lowering the sash.

I i From the New York World. The Bloody Shirt Preparing for Another Shale. The story goc » ing Presidential that in the forthcom Message an effort is to be made to .alarm the country again about Louisiana. According to a cor respondent's im'ormatioc, the key-note is to be Btruck in this wise : "More serions trouble is anticipated next Jan uary than any which has yet occurred to mar the peace of tho State." This more serious trouble is to come about by the lynching of the Returning Board by tlie White League, and a voilent packing of the Legislature in the Conservative interest by the opera tion of League rifle;», etc., ete., all of which '"facts," it is said, "are in the President's possession," and tho inti mation is that they are to bo produced in the message by the President, who, "while he is most heartily disgusted with the unsettled condition of affairs, ip which he has the sympathy of the Attorney-General, recognizes the ob ligation to prevent anarchy und stay riot." * * * * » * »-•« That the President and the Attorney General will seek to cover over the ignal wrong that was - done by foisting the Kellogg Government upon Louisi ana through the illegal enforcement of Judge Durell's decree—a wrong and an outruge from which all the subsequent troubles have flowed—we do not doubt. The readiest way to do this is to dis tract the attention of Congress and the country to the anticipation of new disturbances. If things are to be al lowed to flow on smoothly in Louisi ana under tho tranquilizing effect of the late elections, there will bo noth ing to stave off the inquiry that must be instituted, sooner or later, into the origin of Kellogg authority and the reign of Radical faction that under him usurped the control of the State. There is notliiug in tho past—nothing down to the present moment—that will serve tho purpose of a diversion of the iuquiry. It can only be accom plished by the anticipation of greater trouble that will happen in the future, which will servo to throw all the complications and troubles of tho past into the shade and afford a pretext for putting the State under martiallaw. The invention of "plots" is an easy trade, and even in this intel ligent country and enlightened ago it has sometimes been a successful one. On this occasion it will fail. In the meantime, while waiting for the evidence that is to discloso tills "greater trouble," wo have iust two things to say. All our information leads us to feel entirely assured that the Conservative classes and tho Dem ocratic parly of Louisiana will do nothing whatever that their friends in Hie North would have occasion to re gret, cither in the organization of their Legislature or in any other mut ter. They may be bumpered witli le gal difficulties ; which have sprung front Ute original violence that do tc to their public uffairs by the i proper interference of the Federal Executive, and by the uncertainties tlmt have been created in their laws. But they will have no disposition to solve these difficulties by violent meth ods, because they, us everybody else, must kuow suffit u solution can aceont pliait nothing. or some as im Tho huge, drastic, griping, sickening pills, constructed of crude, coarse buly, ingredients, are fast being super seded by Dr. I'iorco's Pleasant Purgative Pellets, or Sugar-Coated, Concentrated Root and Herbal Juice, Anti-Bilious Gran ules—tho "Littlo Giant" Carthartic or Multum in Parvo. Modern Chemical Science enables Dr. Pierce to extruc from tho juices of the most valuable root s and herbs their active medicinal princi ples, which, whon worked into little Pel lets or Granules, scarcely larger than mus tard seed, renders each little Pellet as ac • tivo and powerful as a large pill, while they are much more palatable and pleas ant in effect. Dr. Ira A. Thayer, of Haconaburg, Ohio, writes : "I regard your Pellets as tho best remedy for the conditions for which you prescribe them of anything I have over used, so mild and certain in effoot, and leaving the bowels in an ex' celicnt condition.
