Uiong all politicians, thit no man ha* ever tilled the Presidential chair who possessed so 1'ttle natural and acquired ability as the present occupant. If it were i ot for Dnn Lamont it is hard to tell how Mr. Cleveland would navigate. Before his term expires, till the world will know that, in fact, \ the President it little better thau a cipher, intellect­ ually. New York Tribune* What Is to be said of the President? It It to be held that he is comparatively ignorant of law and has had no experience In public afiair*, ami neglected toseirch |i«r precedents in the conduct of the government, and so engaged in a grave conflict with the Senate, knowing nothing of i:s right* or his dutie s? No defense could be more damning. If that is true of Mr. Cleveland he I* less lit W be President than his worst foes have ever imagined. Is It to be said, on the other hand, that he is a headstrong man WIIO cares nothing for precedents and little for restraints of law. but intends to administer the government according to his own ideas of right? That Is to say that lie is a usurper, who liable* to require im peach went before all hdone. These defenses are suicidal. President Cleve­ land has bei ti pushed bv dishonest ad visers into a fatal and lawless attitude. They knew it was lawless. His first 1 f duty is to put them out of his Cabinet. his .counsel and his conflJeuce, and then to open those "glass doors" and let the public know how the govern ment has been conducted.

WABREH LEMND, whom everybody kaewa as to IIMIUMM aMMgwot the Largtst hum tfliirpnsii ot America, tayt that while a passenger from New York on board a skip going around Cap* Horn, in the early days of emigration to Cal­ ifornia, he learned that one of the officers of the vessel had oared himself, daring the vof- age, of an obstinate disease by UM use of Ayer's Sarsaparilla. Since then Mr. LILAKD has recommended Area's SARSAPARILLA In many similar eases, and he has never yet heard of Its fail­ ure to effect a radical care. Sonic year# ago one of Mr. LlUXD'S farm laborers braised his leg. Owing to the bad state of his blood, an ugly scrofulous swelling or lump appeared on the injured Iliub. Hor­ rible itching of the skin, with burning and darting pains through the lump, made life almost intolerable. The leg became enor­ mously enlarged, and running ulcers formed, discharging great quantities of extremely offensive matter. Ko treatment was of any avail until the man, by Mr. LELAND'S direc­ tion, was supplied with AYER'S SARSAPA- KILL A, which allayed the pain and irritation, healed the sores, removed the sweUtatfe «J4 completely restored the limb to use. Mr. r.ici.Avn has personally used Ayer's Sarsaparilla- for Rheumatism, with entire success; anl, after careful observation, declares that, In his belief, there is no medicine in the world equal to it for the cure of Liver Disorders^ Goat, the effects of high living. Salt Rheum, Sores. Eruptions, and all the various forms of blood diseases. "We have Mr. LKLAKD'S permission to invito all who may desire further evidence in regard to the extraordinary curative powers ot AYER'S SARSAPARILLA to see him person­ ally either at bis mammoth Ocean Hotel, Long Branch, or at the popular Leland Hotel, Broadway, 27th and 28th Streets, New York. Mr. LELAND'S extensive knowledge of the good done by this unequalled «sdkst»r«f blood poisons enables him to give Inquirers much valuable Information. ^ FBXPABBD BY Dr. J.C.

The latest extensive strike Is that of work­ men on the Gould system of railroads This strike was inaugurated at St. Louis, on Siturdiy, when over 500 •leathers of the Knights of Labor in the Missouri Pacific shops quit work at half past ten A. x., at a signal sounded by a whistle.

An "occasional reader." humbly apologizing for his ignorance, begs u^ to tell him what all this Pan Electric scindal is about. No need for apology % hy so well Informed a public roan as the President apparently hits not heard auytnlng about it. It's a long story and not a very pleasant one for Americans to read, as it involves the worst Cabinet scandal kuown in the political annals of the country. Better wail now for the Congressional inves ligation. Perhaps the President him self will hear of it at the same time 19* Congress certainly bas its hands lull, nit there is a slowness about its "Stork that worries the people. Quite ft large number of matters have been ttnder consideration frr the past week, but there ha6 been more talk than any thing else. Of course, the main topic .'§8 the discussion of the resolutions in JRPgard to suspensions, Introduced by Senator Edmunds, and it is just to say ijbas Mr. Edmunds' speech was the best Of his life. Its eflect upon the country •ill be disastrous to the administra­ tion party. It was a plain, modes but able arraignment of thi^xecutive for bis refusal to furnish the Senate ,frith such papers on public file as may Have influenced him in the suspension Of officers. His gleanings from past fecords were telling in their eflect The reply of Senator Pugh, of Ala bama, in defense of the President, was «rell prepared and well delivered, but it was weak Mom first to last.
