Lincoln, June 20. 1881.
Fresidext Abtiicp., his son and
daughter, Mrs. Sheridan, Gen. Kucker,
Mrs. Davis, and a party of friends num
bering aboat fifty, attended the per
formauce of W. F. Cody's ("Buffalo
Bill's") troupe of Indians, Mexicans,
and cowboys, who are illustrating at
Athletic Vark life in the "Wild West."
"Hakk ! from the tombs" is the sad,
sad refrain of the great divided as they
take up their mournful line of march
for Chicago. However, we have it from
the Omaha Herald, and the doctor
seems to be very much in earnest too,
that, Uncle Sammy will not respond.
We can only wait and ?ee.
The President's reasons for disap
proving the Fitz John Poiter nonsense
and wickedness are so sound in reason
and law that we apprehend the friends
of that gentleman will hardly bring the
matter ip again. The Presidential
sledge hammer did not leave anything
of the deu.ocratic bladder.
The disgusting theorists and college
fools aroi.nd Boston who are now ex
claiming :vaiDct Mr. Blaine for kcepiDg
up the ti :i ".:iiu of his country wilh re
spect t.i tlij States on the American
Coniiui i.t tire entirely unaware that it
was Jo!. u (uiuov Adams of Massachu
celts who created the Monroe doctiiue,
who wrote all the papers on that sub
ject, ani- issued them in tbe name of
James Jlo.siuf. - The Monroe doctrine
is nothing but John Adams' and John
Quincj Adams', and James G. Blaine is
the upright successor of the founders
of Ma.4chu-4ettg. The donkeys now
paruditig iu Massachusetts act a- if
ibej bad the bar sinister iu them and
wxe ill-begotten. Gtn.
COSDEN TO THE REAR IN ILLI
NOIS. Bill Morrrison, old man Palmer and
Bill Spribger had thi'ir cut and dried
'revenue only platform reported
to the convention in which they
modestly referred to their own achieve
ments as revenue reformers in glowing
terms of praise. Their platform had
been reported to the convention, when
Carter Harrison cumupon the ground
with a proxy aud in a three minutes'
speech kuocked the bottom clean out
of tb(j'"sure thing those gentlemen
bd prepared for the democratic party
Illinois.
This was the most ridiculous farce
of the ui:tuy antics, democracy has
"cut up" this year of IHSi. It 6hows
two things; first: "Bill Morrison,"
'Bill Spiinyer," and Company, have
been lying about the sentiment of the
democratic party in Illinois. It is not
free trade. It don't care a continental
for the vagaries these gentlemen have
been parading in Congress as the dear
est thought of that party in Illinois.
It shows, in the second place, that al
though Messrs. ilorrison, Springer and
Company have the advantage and pres
tige of congressional influences arouud
them and back of them, that, Carter
Harrison, the Mayor of Chicago, the
man they have been abusing ever since
be turned the Iroquois banquet up eide
down, a little over a year ago, on this
same question of lree trade, has more
influence and strength among the Illi
nois bourbons than all of these reve
nue reform cranks put together. Car
ter Harrison and his eale are supreme
among the "Sucker" democracy, aud
the Cobdeu reformers may just 9 well
retire.
MR. BLAINE AND THE RELIGIOUS
PRESS-
The aati-Blaiue organs in the reli
gious press are now very much embar
rassed with communications from dis-
gusred subscriber?. Tho more liberal
f thern print the letters and thrn ed
ltotially express themselves 3 not
gainst Mr. Biaina's private e.jorater.
They are, however, si ill inclined to re-
maiu independent as they call it. But
if one thing more than another is
shown, it is that thinking readers now
adays carefully examine all that is said
on both sides of a question and then de
cide lor themselves. An editor has no
power over intelligent readers except aj
he deserves to have it from the power
f his argument and the truth ot his
premises. Following a few disgusted
men like cosset lambs are followed is
not for reflective miuds. Religious pa
pers above all others ougnt to be truly
independent. Hartford Evening Post.
Yesterday the following appoint
ments were made by the President:
John A. Kasson, of Iowa, envoy ex
traordinary and minister plenipoten
tiary of the United States to Germany.
Alphonso Taft. of Ohio, envoy extra
ordinary aud minister plenipotentiary
of the United States to ltussia
John M. Francis, of New Yoak, envoy
extraordinary and minister plenipoten
tiary of the United States to Austria
Hungary.
Louis Richmond, cf Rhode Inland,
minister resident aud consul general ot
the United States to Portugal.
Samuel H. M. Byers, consul general
to Rome, Italy.
Ransom C. Williams, consul general
t Havana.
Ward i'cAllisler. jr., of California,
1 U'i'.ed States judge, district of Alaska.
Andrew J. Lewis, of Illinois, clerk of
the United States court, district of
Alaska.
M. C. nillyer, of California, marshal
of the United States court, district ot
Alaska.
Frank Sperry, of New York, associ
ate justice of the supreme court of Da
kota. ,
Seward Smith, of Iowa, associate
justice of the supreme court of Dakota.
John Jarrett, of Pennsylvania, com
rnissioner of labor.
Miner W. Bruce, register of the land
office at Niobrara, Nebraska.
It would be a fearfully thin dodge to
put up the old gentleman in order to
get some such fellow ?.3 Bayard into
the White House. The latest scheme
of democratic stales craft is to nomi
nate Uncle Sammy with; Bajard as
vice. Then if Uncle Sammy should
gt there he is to resign on account of
I hysical aliment and Thomas Francis is
1 o be tbe President.. This is smart, very
smart; yet we can't see, in the transac
tion, where the uold man" comes in for
Lis margin on the deal.

Vital Question ! ! ! !
Ask the most eminent pJiysiean
Ot any school, what is the best thing
in the world for quieting and allaying
all irritation of the nerves, and curing
all froms of nerves, complaints, giving
natural, childlike refreshing sleep
always?
And they will tell you unhesitatingly
"Some form of Hops! ! "
CHAPTER I.
Ask any or all of the nioft eminent
physicans:
"What is the best and only remedy
that can be relied on to cure all diseas
of tbe kidneys and urinary organs;
such aa Bright's disease, diabetes,
retention, or inability to retain urine,
aud the diseases and aliments peculiar
to Women"
:tAnd they will tell you explictly and
emphatically " Buchu ! ! ! "
Ask the same phyicians
"What is the most reliaolo and surest
cure tor liver diseases or dyspepsia;
consMpation, inigestion, billiousness,
malaria fever, ague, &c.,"and they will
ted you :
Man&rake ! or Dandelion! ! !
Hence when these remedies are com
binded with others equally valuable.
And compounded into Hop Bit tees,
such a wouderful and mysterious
curative power is de veloped, which is
so varied iu its operations that no
disease or ill health can possibly cxit
rr resist its power aud yet it is hnrm-
i,-s-j for tho uist frail woman, weakest
invalid or suiullcst child to use.
