I Tin : HON. JOHN L. SUI.I.IYAK ,
f. Boston , is tiow in Londoh , and tlic Hi
1 William P. Cody lias jubt gene to t
continent. Englishmen having had t
opixM-tunity of studying wubtern life w
now bco something of uasturn culture ,
11ns llfoiilt In New York.
To tlio great surprise of ovorybodj
including the best judges , and the lead
er of the successful party , New Yorl
Btfito lins gene democratic. Colonc
] ' 'red Grant , the republican candidat
for bccrotary of stuto , headed the llclto
for his party , nnilFrcdorluk Cook , th
big orewer of llochcstor , was tlio democratic
cratic candidate for ro-clection. Cook'
plurality is now estimated at 10,00
votes and it is possible that it wil
bo a thousand or tnoro losj than thn
figure. This compared with the vote c
1885 by which Hill was elected governo
over Davonjxirt with a plurality c
11,1 , ' ! I shows a decrease in pluralities fo
tlio democrats though this is to bo ac
counted for by the light voto.
The fight was a vigorous ono on hot
sides. Colonel Grant who received th
nomination only because he was the so
of Ulytses S. Grant made a por&om
cnnvans of the slate , assisted by Sour
tors Evarts of Now York and Fryo c
Maine nnd Senator-elect Iliscoc
of Now York. The Grand Arm
fctood gallantly by him an
the strongest appeals were iffnd
to the lloating vote for support. On th
other side President Cleveland an
Governor II111 took a hand. In fnc
the administration staked its all on th
result. Every element of power po ;
bcbbcd by the chiefs at Washington nn
Albany was used to help along th
ticket. The intention was to apprc
printo direct to Cleveland all benefit
of a sucrosbful fight , and the friends c
the president used every means to brin
about this result.
Aside from tins result of the olcctio
there are several points worth
of attention in regardto th
vote cast yesterday. The prohibitio
vote in the state shows an ir
crcaho of 2.5 per cent in the vote ens
for Bascom , the prohibition candidat
for governor in 18S5 , an increase not t
all likely to discourage the third part
in its ill-ndviscd career. The labc
vole was far below what was oxpocto
by all. The friends of Henry Gcorg
fixed his vote for secretary of state i
12-3,000 , 00,000 of which wore to b
counted in New York city. Ills opp <
ncnts allowed him from CO.OOO to 70Of
in their estimates of the city vote , nn
upon this estimate it was figured tin
Grant would bo elected. But the com
shows 3.,4".0 for George , a loss of 34,0 (
from the vote cast for him for mayor i
1885. Had George received thcso vote :
all of which would have been dem <
cratic , Grant's plurality would hav
boon at Iciibt 200,000. The united labc
party cannot stand this loss , and it :
likely to go to pieces long before at
other November comorf.
Although buccess would have bee
agroonblo to the republicans in the slat
of New Yorl : yesterday , still there :
little to discourage them. It was cloarl
a mibtake to make such a nomination i
that of Colonel Fred Grant. A man <
great perbomil strength and ono able t
lend the fight could have been elcctc
oven with the conditions existing. Tli
otlicial count will show many reasons ft
confidence in the claim that there ai
splendid chances of republican succe :
in the national election of ISSSi
Opposition to Tmtnnr.
It is believed in Washington tin
should the president nominate Mr. L :
mar for the vacancy on the supreir
bench , as ho is expected to do , ho wi
not bo confirmed. The theory is tin
the republican majority of the sonai
will refuse to confirm on the ground tin
Lamar has once violated his oath to su ]
port the constitution and therefore en
not bo trusted to interpret that instri
tncnt for the guidance and direction i
the lower courts ; besides which ho o ;
posed the amendments adopted since tl
war , which ho has characterized as m
warranted and unjust , and it is thougl
republican senators will hold it'to I
unbiifo to imperil thcso amendmon
by subjecting them to the judici
interpretation of ono who is (
record among their most pronounce
opponents. There is no objection on tl
bcoro of ability or residence , but solo'
with respect to his course and recordc
opinions. A southern man who wi
not foresworn and had not openly pr <
claimed his hostility to the nmon
monts , being otherwise qualified , won
not bo rejected because a Bouthorno

senators that no man who has violate

that tills rule would bo adhered to :
the case of Mr. Lamar , notwithstandii
that ho has boon a member of the seato
ate and would therefore under most ci
cunib'tanccs bo entitled to exception
courtesy.
It appears to bo very generally undo
stood that Mr. Cleveland intends
nominate Lamar to the vacant justic
Hhip , and it la to ho apprehended th
ho will not bo deterred from doing thi
if ho has decided upon it , by any ossu
anccs of republican opposition in tl
senate. If Mr. Lamar is willing to 1
made the subject of another conflict b
twcon the executive and the scnnt
there Is very litllo doubt that M
Cleveland would not hesitate to brit
on the light. IIo has never bhown ni
unwillingness to join issue with tl
senate in the past , when offices of mm
lobs consequence and individuals
which ho was much less interested wo
involved. IIo will bo oven less like
to do so now and in this case , when
fight with the republican son a
would undoubtedly ho approvi
by the entire democracy ni
the south especially would warmly sv
tain him in behalf of the man who hoi
a place second to none ether in southo
esteem.
But the president has not said ho i
tends to appoint Lauinr , and in view
possible ditUculty ho may judicious
decide to nominate some ether soulhe
man who would bo unobjectionable ,
in to ho hoped ho will do this , for in ni
event the appointment of Mr. Lam
would not receive that general approver
or bo accepted with that universal co
fidoucti which ought to attend uppoin
menU to tlio supreme bench. The

Tin : New York Financial and Co\ \
menial Chronicle , having made a carol
fctudy of the crop returns of the nort
west , concluded that the disposition
regard the railroad outlook in that sc
tion as unfavorable is not warranted 1
the conditions. It finds that the tot
product of leading cereals in the nort
west will differ very little from that
last year , so that the carrying , bubinr
of the railroads , so far as the crops a
concerned , will bo reduced to a vo
bmall extent. And this reduction w
bo moro than balanced by the incren
ever last year of the transportation

not satiated but with wanton an

A corri'spondont from Mexico writ <
to the Philadelphia Record : It will be

manner in which Americans build rai
roads. More than $ < ,000,000 has a

itali.sts in the railway enterprises i
Mexico. When a now road is to I

The Mexican manner of rnilroat
building ii ) diametrically opposed to tli
American plan. First a "concession ,
or permission to build , must bo oblainc
from the government , and then soni
point sought for , fin- distant from another
ether railroad , nnd the material tram

of securing the sympathy of mulo-own

on native workmen , the road will a ]
preach completion so gradually that bv

as If it had always existed ; and by thn
time the portion of the road first bull
will need renewing , perhaps by dc

CATARRH DESCRIBED.

When cntairh 1ms exited In the hend nnd the
upper pait of tint tin out for any length of time
the patient UNIng In a dUtiict ulu-io people
are subject to c-atari hal nlloctlim-and tlio ills-
e.iso bus been left unrmt'd , thn c.itarrh invari
ably , sometimes slowly , extends down thu wind
pipe and into the bronchial tubes , which tubes
convoy tli" air into the dlUVient pails of the
lungs. Thu tubes hctomo iillectod fiomtho
swelling and the mucous ailslng from catarrh ,
nnd. In some liistunccs , become pluggc-d up. HO
that t lie nlr cannot get In ns freely an It should.
Shoitnessof breath follow.s , nnd the patient
breathes with labor and dllllculty.
In either rase Ihuiu Is a sound of crnckllng
nnd wheeling Inside the chest. At this stage of
the disease tlio breathing Is usually moie nipid
tlmn when In health. The patient bus also hot
dashes oer Ills body
The pain which uccompantes this condition la
of a dull character , felt In the chest , bohlud the
breast bone or under the shoulder blade. The
pain may como and go-last a few days and
then bo niiscnt for several others. The cough
tliat occurs In the 1li.st stages of bromhUl ca-
tarih Is dry , comu.son at inttinals , hacklngm
character , and Is usually most troublesome In
the moi nine on rising , or going to bed at night ,
nnd It may be In the llrst evidence of the dtseaso
extending Into the lungs.
Sometimes theio nio lltR of coughing Induced
by the tough mucus M > violent as to cause vom
iting. Later on the mucus that Is raised is
found to contain small particles of yellow mat
ter , which indicates that the small tubes in the
lungs me mm allt'Cti'd. With this there nro of
ten htienk.s of blood mixed w Ith the mncus. In
homo cases the patient becomes x cry pale , has
fever , and expectorates before any cough up-
In e'omo cases small masses of cheesy sub
stance are nplt upwhich , when pressed between
the tlncerH , emit a bad odor. In other cased par
ticles of a hard , chalky nature nre uplt up. The
ralsiujjof cheesy or chnlky lumps indicates so-
rlons mischief at woik In the lungs.
in Homo cases catarrh will extend Into thn
lungs in a few weeks ; In other cases It may bo
months , and oven years , before the disease at
tacks the lungs sufficiently to cause serious In
terference with the general health. When the
disease has developed to such a point tlio pa
tient Is said to have caturrhal consumption.
With bronchial catarrh them Is menu or loss
fever which diner * with the different paitx of
the day Blight In the morning , higher Jh thu
nf terubon and evening.
SNEEZINCTCATARRH.
\Vlint It McniiH , How It Acts , nnd
\Vhnr It IH.
You sneeze when you got up m the morning
you try to sneeze your nose elf every time you
mo exposed to the leiwt draft of air. You have
u fullness over the fiont of the fnrehead , und
the nose feels as if there was a plug 111 each nos
tril , hlch 5 on cmmot dislodge. Von blow your
nose until your CIUH crack , but It doa't do any
good , and the only result Is that jou succeed in
getting up a very rod nose , and jou HO Irriluto
[ ho lining membrane of that organ Hint yon are
nniible to breathe through It at all. This Is a cor-
red and not overdrawn picture of an acute at
tack ofcatairh , or "Snee/lUB Catarrh , " aa It Is
Now' , what does this condition Indicate ? First
a cold that causes mucus to bo poured out by
the glands In the nose : then these diseased
glands ar attacked by swarms of little Kermi
the catarrh germ-that lloat In the air In a lo
cality where the disease Is prevalent. These an-
Imalculao , In their elforts to find a lodgment ,
irritate the Bonsltlvo membrane lining of th
nose and nature undertakes to rid hciaolf o
them by producing a tit of nnee/.lni ? .
When tlio nose becomes filled with thickened
diseased mucus the natural channels for the IIH
troductlou of nlr into tlio lungs Is Inliirferi-d
with and the person so nlfectcd must Ineutlm
through the mouth , nnd by such means Um
tlnont beconifH p.irched nnd dry , biioilng H
produced , nnd th caturrhal disease gain * tuady
access to the throut fuel lungs.
