' POLITICAL TROUBLES AMONG OUR NEIGHBORS. WasHtxneton, D. C., June 16, 1879. Our dream ef an early adjournment, seems to be fading. The Republicans say | that they have discovered many objection- | able features in the appropriation bills | since they came from the House, and will} s‘outly oppose them in the Senate; and | that the President will, at least, veto the} judicial expenses and the army bills, on the | ground that they are intended to abridge | or restrict the executive authority of the Government, It is generally thought that Mr. Blaine announced the President’s plat- form when he said that, after retaining the same matter in other bills intended to establish a petmanent policy, the President would be stultifying himself by approving a bill to rob him temporarily of the author- ity to enforce the laws. If this is the case, then the Democrats appear to have their opportunity to enforce the programme an- nounced at the beginning, that is to ‘ad- journ and leave the responsibility with the President. The friends of the Administra- tion assert that the President will at ence call another sessien if the Democrats carry out this plan. In the mass of contradictory reporis, it is difficult to find a solution of the snarl, but it looks now but very little nearer the end than a month ago. One Democratic report has it that the Repub- lican opposition in the Senate does not have a deep meaning. Indeed, some of the House Republicans who voted for the Army Bill are unkind enough to insinuate that ‘‘ Mr. Conkling is striving to create another breach between the party and Hayes. Knowing full well that Mr. Hayes will ap- prove the Army Bill, Mr. Conkling wishes to make the Republicans oppese it.” How far this feeling extends, | am not in a posi- tion to state, but the Democrats are count- ing much wpon it, and itis but fair to say that the Republicans are ill at ease about it. There is trouble in the Independent Greenback camp. For a long time the rafical *‘ safts”’ have felt impatient at the manner in which their outposts have one by one been occupied by the Democrats. Now things have got to the serious pass where the Democratic party seems likely to ‘‘gobble” the Greenback party entire in such States as Maine and Ohio, and the men who stand out for a ‘* new party” are incensed at it. The National View, the greenback organ here came out in a savage assault on the Ohio management, denounc- ing its talk about ‘‘ troops at the polls,” ‘a free ballot,” ‘‘ no supervisors,’ &c., as ‘* that sort of frath” which is caleulated to conceal the true issue of ‘‘ timancial reform.” At the same time the original greenback orgar in Maine comes out’ with a strong denuncia- tion of the whole party management in that State, and accusing the leaders of having sold ont te the Democrats for the hepe of success, and signs somewhat similar came from Ohio. In other words, the radical greenbackers appears to have determined upon an independent party action or none at all. While these things seem to trouble the Democratic Party, the Republicans are also troubled. Ohio is giving them enough to do, and every effort is necessary te affect the Democratic campaign ; but meanwhile the election in Maine comes on, and Ohio will feel its influence. The Greenbackers and Democrats are working in Maine as never before, and there are indications that Secretary Sherman and his friends are anxious. The Republicans are experi- encing some locai trouble, also, in the matter of eandidates, nobody whe is wanted ap- pearing willing to take the nomination for Governor of Maine, Judge Peters premp- torily declines: Congressmen Reed and Frye prefer to stay in Congress, and others whe are popular have ‘prior engage- ments.” Mr. Hale wants the nomination; but, on account of his defeat last fall in his Congressional District, the policy of his nomination is doubted. The Opposition are making merry over this condition of things, but the Republicans still assert their ability to regain the State. General Grant’s horses, the gifts of the Sultan of Turkey, are one of Washington’s attractions now. They are beautiful ani- mals—both dapple gray, five and six years old, respectively, bright, sprightly and kind. They are broken to saddle only. They were delivered in Philadelphia free of cost for transportation. They are now at srightwood Park, and will be kept in this vicinity until Gon. Grant’s return. bent ES tL a a Mr. Jostau Kern; a well known accotintant of Ottawa, was engaged in a game of hand ball with other guests’ of the St. Louis Hotel on Monday evening.

The liver is the imperial organ of the whole human system, as it controls the life, health and happiness of man. When it is disturbed in its proper action, all kinds of ailments are the natural result. The di- gestion of food, the movements of the heart | vous system, are all immediately connected ) with the workings of the liver.
