Morton and the N- . . . f4eep and have fought our daat bttle can Uommittee three times the , , - amount wbat hia salary as Vice President would be which is suppos ed to mean that he ha3 contributed $9(3,000. Iq return for this he has msisied, and a till insists, that the full power of the National Commit tee shall -be used to carry North Car olina, Senator Quay objected at first, bat heconld hai'dly help yield ing to the party's ceudiJate for the Vice-Presidency and its greatest pe cuniary aid, so an energetic Repub lican campaign has been carried ou in Noith Carolina, and Senator Quay has spent money in that State which he wanted to devote to other States. The dipgutt of Senator Quay now is due to a discovery which he has just made or tne reasons which ac tuate Mt. Mortow in desiring to have North Carolina, go Republican. They are, in short, th.it the tirm of Morton, Bliss, &eo. are hoideiR of what are known as the special tax bonds, which now amount, principal and in terest, to more than. $30,000,000. These bonds were issued when North Carolina was iu the hands of the car- got baggers and it va pretended that tt ey were to be devoted to the building of ceatam "railroads inj the promotion of which Milton S. Little lieid was the chief actor. - A special tax was levied fur tueir payment, h;nce their niupo. Littlefield took the bonds, sold them in New York for what they would bring, and did not bnild any railroad with them. The fraud was so gross that after Noith Carolina came uud'.r the con trol of its decent and .expectable citi zens, a constitutional proviBiou was enacted forblding their payment unless Buch payment i-hould be au thorized by a majority of t e voteis of tbe State' at the ballot box. Morton, Bliss & Co. bought up these bonds aiter their repudiation for almost nothing, and have made several attempts to collect them through the-courts. Tests suit3 have been brought in mdividual bouds in he United States Circui-t urt for North Carolina in the name of dum mies who reside in xorth Carolina The suits are not brought by Morton, BiiiS & Co., in order , to avoid the provisions of the eleventh amend ment to the Federal Constitution which forbids the .bringing of a suit agaiust a S ate by a resident of an other State. Ove or the suits is now pending in the United States Su prem& Court, with small chances of success. But, even if these suits were to succeed; the collection of the judgement would be difficult,- unless the people, the Legislature, and the Govenor should be m favor of . pay ing it. . Therefore Mr. Jorton is very desirous to have North Carolina : go" Republican, and there are persons at the National Republican Heudquar teis who are unkind enough to say that bis main, if not his sole purpose, in obtaining the Republican nomina tion for the Vice-Presidency, was to be thus enabled to employ tbe whole power of the party through the Na tional committee to collect bis bonds which he bought for almost nothing after they had been repudiated. In other words', that his candidacy is only a vast financial speculation, in which he uses the Republican party as a tool to accomplish his ends. N.

Figs are .not pro duced by thistles, inor grapes by thorns- The, Republican State ticket is the twin brother of the North Car olina delegation to the Chicago coa verition. It was sired by the 'same party.; It Is the' fruit of the same tree. - ,. - - , -: . , Now let ns examine the. record of that remarkable delegation, ;and we my then form some ldeW of the re quisites for popularity in tzt party. We may then see what sort of men that party honors. When the delegation reached Wash mgton 00 their way to Chicago three: fourths of them proceeded at onqe to the cottage vhere Uanady, Slier man's agent, was lying sick There 13 was arranged they should be pro vided with a special palace car for their journey to the National Con velition, and with sumptuous accom modations while at Chicago. Tne ninjonty of them, if not all of them, likewise received money. And not withstanding the strong sentiment of the party in this S ate against Sherman, they voted for him nntil Alger have his barrel in sight, and then some of them, practically all of the negro delegates, veered off in that direction. Mr. Sherman publicly coarged that Mr. Alger had bought fifty of his (Southern delegntes--raen who ought to hav r yoted for him be cause he was ineir inend. And in reply to this one of' Alger's support ers said that Alger was three times as good a fneud to those delegates as Sherman was, because he bad paid tnem $300 apiece, whereas Sherman had only paid tnem $100. The ve nality of the Southern delegates was o Ecaoda'.ous s to disgust (he North ern lirpublicans, and in order toavoid sch scauda s in tho fu'ure, 11 was seriously "suggested by miuy politi cians that no State should b'.' enti led to representation ;n the Nat'.ona Convention which did not cast us electoral. ote for tho Republican ticket. It is these negroes and their man agers; it is venality, fraud and cor ruptiou; it is careering, rampant and unbridled vilhany it is these, I say that constitute the power behind the throne in the Republican party iu this State; it is these that mould i'S p ilicy :nl con'.rol i'8 movements and when you repeat, quis custodes ctistocLiet, it is these that auswer ''We' GojI foibid!

It is the high tariff and nothing but the tariff. This tremendous tax On us, drawing money from us ev ry year and piiing it' up in the Federal Treas ury nd in the pockets of the Yankee manufacture.

That which "had been "aft unpWtant' ' ' factor in establishing the belief that pure air is such an essentia! ?elenientln limit ing f he ravages of consnmptio&is that those who occupy elevated or mountain- -:ous regions are less liable to this disease r ' than :' those who live near, the sea level, i In reference to this fact, Dr. Maya says -r- , j that h. is estimated that at. an elevation of 6,000 feet the'6Urface Of , the body ia relieved of nearly 7,000 pounds' pressure. When such an- enormous, weight Is lifted from the body; it is quite evident that its interior must also be markedly affected; the pulse is accelerated from fifteen to twenty beats per minute; the respiration is quickened from ten to fifteen breaths. and evaporation from the skin and longs ia mcr'eased. These are . .some of the imniediate effects. . . ftctoactecV i resi dence in such "a " high, "region en larges the chest capacity. ' The Oui .chua Indians, who - dwell on- the elevated tablelands .of Peru, have enor mous sized chests, containing capacious lungs with large air cell. The Mexican Indians possess ehests which are out of proportion to the sizes of the individuals. Dr. Denison says "that Y children born in the Rocky mountains have chests of J un usually large capacity, and M. Jaccoud states that, at St. Moritz the respirations are not only more frequent but fuller. i The reason why the number of respira tions irjereasea while, ascending a high elevation becomes clear when we take into consideration the fact that at the ow a iuuhji UXJf hit uunuuoii ' ' about 130 grains of oxygen; rbuV at an ' - -elevation of 6,000 feet it contains only. ; about 108 grains nearly 25 per cent, less" ' than .tlie body is accustomed to breathe at or near the seaboard. ' Professor Mosso has recently proven experimentally that man possesses a lung capacity which is nearly one-fourth larger than the actual necessities of life at the sea level demand; hence by employing ' ' his whole lung capacity he can extract a sufficient amount of oxygen from this attenuated atmosphere without difficulty. And herein lies the secret why so many consumptives, , and others with . weak - -r lungs, derive such a great benefit when they resort to a mountain - climate. ' . Every available space in . the., chest is 4 . brought into requisition ta furnish the needed amount of oxygen, the apices are called out of, their lethargio state, and tbe alveoli are inflated ; and, if the infil-.; trated areas are not dispersed, the sur- . rounding alveoli are kept permeable;1 and ' ' ' so the disease is at least limited and called into abeyance. .-, In cojicluding his paper, Dn Mays Bays: "Now,-after reviewing tHe whole subject, we are driven to the conclusion. -that the line of immunity from consump tion, which in 'the early history of our u ' country was located at -the Atlantic sea board, and which has gradually receded , westward with the tun of dvilization, until at present it has reached the latitude ' ' '" of Colorado, will not . stop in . its course : ? until it touches the shores of the Pacifips, . that the question of ctrring the disease J does not depend on the purity or fresh ness of the air, or upon . the number of , bacilli which the atmosphere may con tain, ot upon the amount of -'oxygen. ' which may be mtroduced into tlie body, for these are ail secondly corisidera- , tdons; but it is simply, a mechanical ques tiona question as to the best mode of -expanding the lungs. , and especially the , apices of our round shouldered and flat cheated patients ' of removing ther infil trated products already existing,' and of . - enliancing the constitutional rftsisfance.' , Science. r j'i . .
