Washington, July 19.t-As it is set tled beyond any further doubt that after the 4th of March next the United States Senate will be under Democratic control, the noble army of office seek es has already begun its march on the entrenchments of that wing of the capitol. The Democratic Senators have, however, determined that the change in the political complexion of the Senate shall not be made the ocea- sion of a disgraceful scramble for a few paltry offices, such as was tbe case when the House of Representatives passed under Democratic control. The leading Democratic Senators point to the fact that from its earliest history it has never been the custom of the United States Senate to parcel out the few offices at its disposal as a rew,ar( I iur reai ur laucieu pouuca Beryjcea. It is a, well known fact that the Re publican majority in the Senate, even when party feeling was most bitter, made no movement to interfere with the tenure of some of its officers whose DemocratijC proclivities were notorious. The sentiment now is that it will be. the proper thine to retain s.uch of the subordinate officers of the Senate as are faithful and efficient. 0 pourse the present secretary and the present sergaanVat-ar-.rhs ox the Senate will be superseded, but political con siderations will not to any great ex tent enter into the appointment or re moval of the employes of their respec tive offices. Indeed, it is believed to be the case that so far as the force of thesergeant-at-arm concerned the pjemoeratic Senators have now as many if not more appointments than the Republican senators. In regard to the offloe of secretary of the Senate it was stated toiay by tne friends of Mr Henry , Watterson, of the Louisville Courier-Journal, that he is a candidate for the position, and has already received such assurances from the Democratic Senators as to leave no doubt of his election. It is general- ,v understood that Mr John G ThamP-. ar Ha Ttvoaont fl A VfffiO n fa TiflrrYi & rl the House of Representatives, and a warm personal friend of Senator Thur onan, wm De tne successor 01 but French as sergeant-at-ar-ms ,or the ssen ate. Is It a Tragedy ? Atlanta (Ga.) Constitution. Thomas ton, in this State, is strug :ling with something of a sensation. )n the 28th of last February, Mrs Bet tie Irvin; tke wife of Mr Andrew Irvin, died under circumstances that excited the suspicions of the neighbors. These, and the" subseciuent conduct of the husband; have finally led to action on the Dart of the authorities. Last week the remains 01 the uniortunate woman were exhumed, and the coroner sum moned a jury 01 inquest, ine evi dence before the jury is rather start- line in what . it suggests rather than in what it reveals and .the history of the case, as detailed before the jury misrht well serve as the basis of a trag' edy as dark and as 'deliberate as those that form the frame work of the sena- sational novels of the day, LThe testimony is 'to the enect tnat Tjrvin and hia wife did not live happily. toeether, 'JLnere were irequenv quar' rels between tnem, . cnougn' xvirs xrvm is" represented :tpi: hae -been a very meek and timid woman. Her mother, Mrs Butler, testifies that on one . occa sion she found her daughter in tears and was told that tbe trouble had been abbut'a Miss Matthews. Mrs Irvin died very suddenly, and those who saw her immediately., afterwards ,fdund vlier lying with her head on her right arm, ana nertiace a.nu neci.' uiuuy.ruui,i.eii. The witnesses who testify to.-.theap pearance of the dead woman say . thiU ppr husband celebrated tne eyent ;oy going abou the house singing. ' It; was in evdenc that Irvin heft ; previously nurchased ..oDium. 'and laudanum. ostehBiblv.for his 'mother-in-law. Mrs Butlei4J)ut that lady in her evidence denied thati-Irvin had ever:iibongn efthertjf these drugs at her 'request, While he was accompanying the .re mains of his wife to the:irave, Irvin told th.e;drirer of the wagon that .before she died hia wife had "picked: out an other wife for .him j and .the man to, Whom he made the yemark was the father 1 of ihe ; ady he subseauently married, ThB verdict of the coroner's iamwas toithe effect" that Mrs Irvin 'earne'io her death? from s volencf! at the hands of her husband in the use of laudanum an opium. u The coronet was on the streets until half-past five 1 o'ciock. learning tnat tne jury had found the verdict quoted above, he mounted his mule and rode away in the . direction of Geneva. Altogether it ja a strange case. Ueejv-Fresl. Bitter Beer, Bal no Treating. ,A looker-on in Vienna writes that beergardens and beer-rooms are every where in Vienna, and tbe drinking of neer seems to be regarded as one of the necessaries of lue. It is drank freelv at all the restaurants, and is brought, as a matter ot course, joTeyexy one as soon as they take a seat at a table. A man who would undertake to eat with out beer would be regarded as a curios ity. As soon as your glass is empty it is refilled, as a matter of course. There is, however, no ir eating &a it is called yath us, in Vienna. ; If two or three gentlemen come , in . together and call lor beer, each pays for what he drinks. If one of them calls for a second glass, .... . . . . o ne never tninxs 01 askong ma compan ions to drink with him. How Many Men it Took to Ponquer the Confed . eracy. ,From the records of the War.

"Give os this day our daily bread" and good medicine to digest it, ia both reverent and human. -The human stomach and liv er are frnitfal sources of life'fc comforts; or disordered end diseased, they tingle misery along every nerve and through every artery. The man or woman with good digestion see beauty as they walk, and overcome obsta cles they meet In the routine of life, where the dyspeptic sees only gloom and stumbles and growls at even imaginary objects. The world still needs two or three new kind? of medicine before death can be perfectly abolished ; but that many Uvea have been prolonged, and many sufferers from liver disease. Dyspepsia and Headache, have been cored by Merrell's Hepatine, is no longer a doubt. It cores Headache in ; twenty min utes, and these is no question bat what it is the meet wonderful aiseovery yet made in medical science. Those afflicted with bil iousness and Liver Complaint should use MerreU's Hepatine. It can be had at Dr J H McAden's, Wilson' & Burwell's and Dr T C Smith's.
