BOCK ZSX.AVD,. .HJCIJTOIS, Thursday. Mard. 22. 1877. Trick That Did Not Fay. A Republican organ grinds this mourn ful and suggestive tune; "Folly In governments, as tn Individuals, comes borne to rooit. It Is a mere question of time. The Republicans now repent of their foolishness In dividing V irgiDia, making two sovereign states where there should be bnt one, thus giving what is now the solid south two additional senators." Precisely so. The Kepublican leaders thought they were playing an uncommonly shrewd trick in dividing a sovereign state in order to strengthen the power of their party in congress, and Democrats have not forgotten the contemptuous insolence their protests against this unconstitutional act provoked. Now these same loaders would be exceedingly glad to have one Virginia instead of two, and the Demo crats are not sorry to acquire additional strength from a device expressly intended to weaken them. By and by, perhaps, "the party of great moral ideas" will learn that honesty is the best polisy, and that a rascally trick is sure, sooner or later, to recoil upon the heads of its inventors, St. Lou Li Republican. And they are now cursing the day that they let the plantation negroes in as voters, etc. The negroes all through the south are turning to the Democratic side for relief, and now the Republicans wish il . . I 1 "1 la. 1.1 iney naa never maae trie uamnigger a voter. As long as the "free American of African descent'' votes the Republican ticket they speak of him with great re spect, but when he votes Democratic he becomes a "damoigger" in their esti mation. On its Death-Bed. The Boston Transcript an old and in fluential Republican paper, with a degree of hoDesty not common to the average Radical journal, cries out: The Republican party is really to-day in sore need. On the popular vote it is in a minority. In the electoral colleges its strength rests entirely upon such extraor dinary expedients as partisan returning boards, constituted for the sole purpose of destroying the polls. In the next senate its once enormous preponderance is re duced to four or five majority. In the house it will be in a minority. One after another of its great leaders has been sup pressed or driven away, until in the next house Governor Cox, of Ohio, will stand almost alone as conspicious for public ser vice. It is only undue charity which ac cords to Garfield or Eugene Hale capacity tor leadership. In the senate Edmunds, Cotikling and George F. Hoar may be con sidered strong men and leaders. Christ iancy and Booth are Independents, Blaine must yet rehabilitate his reputation, Mor ton and John Sherman, certainly the for mer, can scarcely be called vitalizing forces in any party. Nor are we better off in respect of measures than of men. Upon finance and tariff we have no policy. U pon reconstruction of the south the policy we have must be abandoned, and we must own up to i having made a miserable and criminal failure of the whole business. What is loft for us but to die? From the Albany Argun, March J", J77. Colonel Pelton and his Calumniators. Though a lie will travel a league while the truth is putting on its boots, that is no reason why the truth should not put on Us boots and pursue the lie as fast as it can. It is under that conviction that we give place to-day to a vindication of Mr. relton which appeared in the New York Herald of the 8th inst., aud which gives, from the lips of Mr. l'eltou himself, a full statement of all the facts by which his name has been calumuiously associated with an al leged attempt to purchase a llepubhcau elector in Oregon. By this statement it appears conclusively: First, That none of the Kepublican elec tors who were in Washington and exam ined before the (senate coiuiuii tee pretended to have ever beeu approached with an offer of a bribe, which is scarcely credible if such an offer had ever been addressed to them. Second. That no money was ever ac tually sent from the east to Oregon. Third. That credits were opened in New York to meet the contingent expeuses that might arise iu the legal struggle which was expected to come off before the Oregon courts, but none were ever used. Fourth. That whatever money, if any, was used, was raised in Oregou, and by the people of Oregon, and was appropria ted not before but after Croniu had been designated as the elector by the governor of Oregon, to pay his expenses iu coming to Washington, aud in paying lawyers' fees for arguing and presenting his case a perfectly legitimate and proper expense. Filth. That Mr. Feltou never saw what is culled tlio 1'ortlund dispatch, feigued Kelly and Patrick. Sixth. That he never heard it intimated by any one that Governor Grover or any one else in Oregon was to be paid or to re ceive anything for his action, or that Mr. C'ronin was to be paid anything even for expenses or for any other purpose until long after the December dispatch, and never heard that any money was desired tor such a purpose until he saw the evi dence before the senate committee; aud Finally. That Governor Tilden never received any telegrams in reference to the Oregou business; never knew of any money being sent there or raised there, or that any was required. No one who knows Mr. Pelton, or has had any opportunity of appreciating his singular discretion, good sense and manliness of character, ever supposed him capable of doing anything that was dis honorable. Unfortunately a successful consummation of the conspiracy which was formed immediately after the October elec tions in the brain of the then secretary of the interior, capacious of Buch things,reudered it necessary to strike another, and, if possible, effective blow at the character of Mr. Tilde ii ; and the Oregon electorship, with the aid of a superserviccablc telegraph company, seemed to furnish the most con venient and effective weapon. It did not matter to the conspirators how foul the blow might be, how false the charges, how many characters were ruined by it, pro vided they could command the attention of the public for the few days which yet re minded before the completion of the count. It was a base and inhuman thing to do, but in the long run calumny only injures those who propagate it. We place this vindication before our readers as a matter of pimple justice to Mr. Pelton, and avail ourselves of this occasion to say that in our judgment it would bo very difficult to name any person .who could have dis charged the onerous and delicate duties which have been imposed upon Colonel l'eltou during two or more years in a way to entitle him in an equal degree to the respect and gratitude of the country. Now that Mr. Pelton's character is vindicated, would it not be as well for Mr. Dorman B. Eaten and his comrades in the Union League, to explain the purposes to which Mr. Secretary Chandler wished to apply the $50,000 which the Union League was asked to furnish a few weeks after the election, and while the conspirators were holdiug back, under pretense of counting the roturns from Florida, Louisiana and South Carolina? That wa8 a large sum to call for at such a time, from such a quarter, and it would be very edifying to know how much waa raised and what be- oame of it. Artemus Ward haa not lived in vain. President Hayes has begun by offering the husband of the favorite cousin of Mrs. Hayes upon the altar of civil-Bervice reform, and will doubtless sacrifice all his wife's relations if it shall be necessary to appease the gods. It appears that the h. of the f. c. of Mrs. II. "was admitted to a private audience with the president," who, "looking him full in the face," Baid: "Your papers are unexceptionable; there "is nothing in your record which does not "seem to show that you are fully qualified "for the position; but there is one insup erable objection to your appointment to "any Federal office that is. your w. is a f. "o. of Mrs. H." Now. if this was a pri vate audience, who gave the story to the 1 nbune s correspondent President Hayes is too inodest a man to do anvthine of the sort, and we apprehend that Mr. Stillwell, the f, c in question, was too mad to publish to the universe the snub he had received. If Mr. Stillwell knew his cousin's husband to be of such stern integ rity what made him go to Washington? If President Hayes knew he was coming to Washington on a fool's errand, it would only have been cousinly to forewarn him and let him save his railroad fare. It looks like a "put-up job" to use the words of the poet as if the Presidential Abra ham hadn't made any move towards the immolation of his Isaac till he had tried the halter and found that the ram couldn't break loose. The state of mind of the average Repub lican congressman at Washington since Mr. Hayes has announced the intention of being a law unto himself in the matter of appointments, recalls the negro who fell into the Mississippi. Thrice they tried to rescue the drowning man as thrice he came to the surface exclaiming in agony, "Save dat yere pocket book!" At the fourth at tempt they fished him out, unconscious, a dem'd, moist, unpleasant body, but his pocket book had sunk to rise no more. When, after half an hour's arduous exer tions, they brought him to himself, the poor African's first words were: "Did you sabe dat yere pocket book?" They ex plained to him that they had been unable to do bo without the risk of losing him, whereupon, in a voice of anguish, he ex claimed: "If you didn't sabe dat yere pocket book, what de debble was de use of sabeing me?" That is just how the Re publican congressman feels. If he hasn't saved the patronage, what the devil was the use of saving the party? The "Iron Trails."

It does not heal externally alon, hut penetrates with the mou searching effects to the very root cf the evil. HOLLOWAY'S PILLS Invariably cure the following diseases: DISORDER Ol'1 THE KIDNEYS. In all diseases affecting these organs, whether they secrete too much or too little water; or whether they be alllicted with stone or gravel, or with aches and pains settled in the loins' over the region- ot the kidneys, these pills should be taken according tn the printed directions, and the Oint ment should be well rubbed into the small of the !acn at bed time. This treatment will e;ive almost immediate relict when all other means have failed For Stomachs Out of Orders. No medicine so effectually improves the tone of the stomach as those pills; they remove a)) acidity occasioned either by intemperance or im proper diet. They reach the liver and reduce it to a healthy condition ; they are wonderfully eftlca hious in cases of spasm in fact they never fail in curing all disorders of the liver and stomach. HOLLOWAY'S PIt.Ls are the best known in the world for the following diseases: Ague, Asthma, Bilious Complaints, filotches on the Skin, Bowels, Consumption. Debility.

"THERE ARE MANY ACCILENTY AND FIRES I which occur lrom thcncof the ordinary sul phur and parlor matches. Either kind of these matches ifruite readily upon any surface. To pre vent lire or accidents, which are liable to occur from their careless use KI"H KAIM SMITH. SUM St. John St., Philadelphia, invented a match known as "Pennsylvania Safety Match," which needs only one trial for the public to kufiw its importance. Its peculiarity is that it cannot be iirnited except on the special preparation furnished with each hox. They do not emii any disagreeable odor or make aiiy startling, crackling sound on being ignited. They contain ueither sulphur nor phosphorus, neither are they poisonous. Another important point is that they are perfectly safe in the hands of children : and the rats and mice carry ing them off can do no damage. Mr. Smith also manufacturers a special rubher to be placed near match safes, thereby making these matches as con venient as those which Ignite on anv surface. With these improvements they are very desirable for private dwellings land business bouses in whith combustible matter is kept. In case one should be dropped on the floor there would be no danger of its burning the carpet or icnitiug i by any acciden tal means. Grocers have them for sale.
